About: I’ve always been an animal lover and have experience caring for pets with different personalities, routines, and needs. One of my most meaningful experiences was caring for our senior Pit Bull through the end of his life while he was battling heartworms. I helped make sure he was comfortable, cared for, and received plenty of love and attention during his senior years. This experience taught me the importance of patience, compassion, and paying close attention to an animal’s individual needs. I’ll treat every pet in my care like they’re part of my own family. I’m currently pursuing my own LLC so I will have plenty of time for your pups! My business if professional organization, if you are needing some help please don’t hesitate to ask. For dog walks, I’ll make sure each dog gets a safe, enjoyable walk that fits their energy level and routine. I’ll always follow the owner’s instructions regarding feeding, medications, bathroom breaks, and any special needs. For overnight care in the client’s home, I’ll keep your pet on their normal routine as much as possible so they feel comfortable while you’re away. I’m happy to provide walks, playtime, meals, potty breaks, cuddles, and plenty of companionship. I’ll also make sure your home is kept clean and cared for while I’m there. My goal is for your pets to feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away.

About: I grew up on a farm and have spent my entire life caring for animals of all kinds. My experience includes both everyday and medical care for livestock and household pets, giving me a strong understanding of animal health, behavior, and individual needs. I have implemented treat based training as well as clicker training with my own pet. Over the years, my family bred and raised both small and large dog breeds, ranging from Beagles to Great Pyrenees. This hands-on experience has given me confidence working with animals of all temperaments, sizes, and energy levels — from high-energy working dogs to elderly and disabled pets requiring extra patience and specialized care. Animal care has always been a true passion of mine. I believe animals are a gift to everyone they meet, and I am committed to providing compassionate, reliable, and attentive care to every pet as if they were my own. Pet care is my full-time profession, allowing me to provide reliable, flexible, and attentive care for every animal I work with. I also attend school virtually while completing my degree in therapy, which gives me the ability to maintain a consistent schedule dedicated to pet care. My long-term goal is to open a therapy practice incorporating equine-assisted therapy to help support and heal others through the connection between humans and animals. I prioritize providing care in my clients’ homes, where pets are most comfortable and able to maintain their normal routines and environment. I believe staying in a familiar space helps reduce stress and anxiety while allowing pets to feel safe and secure. I take the time to follow each owner’s care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, medication administration, and any special needs. My goal is to provide dependable, compassionate care while treating both your pets and your home with the highest level of respect and professionalism.

About: I have grown up with and cared for animals since I was a child. I am most experienced with medium to small dogs. I have owned and cared for Irish Setters, Golden Retrievers and English Shepherd mix. I have sat for dogs and horses of friends and family. I have experience working at an Equestrian farm as a ranch hand. I am available during the week for all of your pets needs. Whether that be a hike along the trail, walking downtown, grooming/vet appointment, or just a lazy day at the house. My weekend may be limited. Given advance notice I could be available for weekend services. Currently, I do not own any dogs. Pets will board indoors. I will provide care according to your specifications and pets needs. Your pets will be walked daily for poddy and exercise breaks.

About: Hi! I’m a dependable, caring animal lover who understands that pets are family. I provide a safe, loving environment where your dog will receive plenty of attention, affection, and exercise while you’re away. I’m patient, responsible, and committed to following your pet’s routine, whether that means daily walks, playtime, medication, or lots of cuddles on the couch. I know every dog has a unique personality, and I take the time to make them feel comfortable, happy, and loved. I have 2 dogs and a cat of my own, and I have 5 years experience helping take care of other’s fur babies. I also have experience with anxious dogs and giving medication. You can expect regular updates, photos, and open communication so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind. My goal is to treat every dog as if they were my own and make their stay as stress free and enjoyable as possible. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! I work full time Monday through Thursday, but I make pet care a priority! During the week I am able to go before work, during my lunch, and after work for drop ins. I can also try to work with your needs if able. I have Fridays off and full availability on the weekends! I have a fully fenced yard where dogs can run, explore, and get their energy out through supervised outdoor play. Inside, dogs are treated like family. They’ll have a cozy place to rest, lots of love and attention, and plenty of opportunities for play, cuddles, and exercise. My goal is to make every guest feel safe, comfortable, and right at home while you’re away!

About: I am so excited for the opportunity to care for your baby! I’ve had a dog, cat, or both since I was little, so I know what it means for fur babies to be family and to want them loved, safe, and well cared for when you’re away. Please shoot me a message if you have any questions at all before booking. I can’t wait to meet and take good care of your pet! I have taken care of pets, including dogs, cats, goats, chickens, sheep, cows, and horses for 25+ years. I have always had a pet of my own who I was responsible for since I was in first grade. I’ve had to provide medical care to a lame prior racing horse— cleaning, washing, and applying bandages and medicine to his foot while his owner was out of the country. I’ve also cared long-term for my elderly chihuahua, Bungee, who took medication for congestive heart failure and for my elderly cat, Jaq, with renal failure who had to be hand-fed for a few months before she passed. I currently have a large white dog, Caliber (Lab/Pyrenees mix), who was a rescue, a Pyrenees puppy who stays with and guards my chickens, a sweet, black collie-like rescue named Sirius, and outdoor cats and kittens which have been strays we have not turned away. Caliber and Sirius are in and out of the house dog and stay wherever they want— in our temperature controlled garage with a fence-less perimeter around our home due to the road and creek proximity, the living room, or the back deck overlooking the creek. Caliber has his own tempurpedic mattress and enjoys long days snuggling daddy’s feet in his office (my husband works remotely). The cats are used to animals of all kinds and know to keep distance on days I board a potentially cat-aggressive pup. I currently have a lot of flexibility as a mostly stay-at-home mom and I work PRN (as needed). Because I’m typically at am home with my children, I am very available to care for your babies well and give them all the love they need. I do enjoy trips with my family out of town and occasionally have busy seasons with local engagements, but I communicate well and will be very clear about my availabilities to make sure it work with your needs and that of your pet(s). As long as the pet isn’t aggressive, I am very comfortable caring for your baby for you in the comfort of your own home. I always enjoy meeting my new friends before their human(s) leave to make sure to give them time to get to know me and feel comfortable with my presence. It’s a joy to drop in and see how excited some pets get for a little company while their humans are gone. I enjoy walking, so I’m always up for a peppy (or slow) walk with your baby. My pup adores other dogs and loves having friends over, but can also be kept in the office or temperature controlled attached 2-car garage to provide ample space for your pet as we come outside if need be. I have space to crate your pup or cat if that works best for your needs as well. On my property I have a large, unfenced yard and can take your pet for wonderful walks in the grass and alongside the creek with me.

“Highly recommend. Emerson warmed right up to her and she did a great job. I also booked her last minute and she was an angel and accepted it. Highly recommend her and will be using her again for sure!”

About: I love all animals like they are my own. Your animals will be in the best care possible while you are enjoying your away time. I work from home so watching your animals would be my pleasure. I love sitting around enjoying time with my animals while I work so why not include others. I have friendly dogs of my own that love company and I live out in the country on 5 acres. My dogs love showing off their space.

About: I've taken care of my neighborhoods animals since I was younger. With the dogs, I would walk them, play ball with them in the back yard, to bathing them if they needed it to cuddling them if it was a storm night. Hi guy! I just graduated school, so how pet care fits into my dailey routine is that i’m available majority of the time even holidays! How I would keep your pets safe is when we are going on a walk I would make sure they were leased. And then if I was playing ball with them I would make sure the gates where closed. And then during the night if they stayed in a crate I would make sure I had one.
