“Matthew was kind enough to walk both of our dogs with little notice on a holiday weekend. He was very patient despite one of our pups being a bit stubborn. We really appreciated his communication and would ask for his help again without hesitation. He’s a good man, and thorough.”
“Brian is great with our 2 beagles, although Callie is still warming up to him, it’s nice to see how he gets her to trust him more and more each visit. He’s patient and waits for her to come to him and he is always pleasant and talks and treats the dogs gently.”
About: I have two babies of my own, Simon (Cat) and Frankie Valli (dog). I love them with all my heart! I have lifetime experience taking care of cats and have been a dog mom for five. I’ve provided house sitting, pet sitting, and check-ins for many of my friends over the years. I have experience with the most easy going, cuddly babies to the not so friendly but still open love (on their terms) ones. I love going on walks with my Frank and I have experience giving medication and I am a pro at deep-cleaning litter boxes. I currently have a full-time job (9-5, Monday-Friday) but I am open to play with your pets on the weekends, and weekday evenings. I am open to holidays. Frankie Valli and I take frequent walks around the neighborhood, he has his own bed and space. Simon is the king of the castle, he has plenty of space to play and stretch his legs.My top priority is making sure my two boys are safe and they live in a stress-free home. I will always prioritize safety, trust, and a stress-free environment in every home I care for. Whether I’m watching pets in my client’s home or stopping by for check-ins, I follow their routine closely to keep things familiar and comforting.
“Christa always communicates extremely well and takes care of Allie perfectly! I always feel peace of mind when Christa is able to help Allie!”
“Thank you Kareema for your continued support with Mae! I really appreciate your updates and quick responses, and Mae is very happy to have made a new friend :)”
“I am so relieved to have found someone who was able to connect with my 20 month old 110 lb white Shepard. Kimba has a traumatic history and I have worked really hard to rehab him mentally since adopting him a few months ago. He immediately took to Anthony and put his fear-based aggression aside. Anthony constantly sent me updates with photos and followed all my requests to keep Kimba on his daily routine. I highly recommend Anthony to care for your dog.”
About: I have a senior dog of my own, who I have helped raise since she was a puppy. Therefore, I know how to care for dogs of all ages, and am trustworthy to do so! I have also occasionally babysat a pair of puppies in favor to a friend! French bulldogs, specifically. Every day of the week, I am responsible for feeding, cleaning up after, and caring for my dog and three cats. Making them happy is my top priority! On Sundays, I volunteer at my local cat café to provide this same care. I have developed very close relationships with these cats, as if they were my own! I know every pet is different, therefore having different needs or guidelines that must be followed. I will make sure every pet under my care receives the same love and attention, no matter how that may change depending on your pet’s specific needs!
“Did wonderful with 2 finicky pups at once. Would highly recommend!”
About: There has never been a time in my life when I didn’t have a fur baby to love and be loved by. As a child, my mom and I would go on long walks just looking for strays in need of someone to love them. We took in many animals over the years. Cats, kittens, pregnant dogs, the lost and discarded, we have seen them all. A love of animals that has given me an ability to understand their individual personalities and needs. Meet and greets are encouraged prior so that your baby and I can get familiarized with each other and ensure we are a good fit! Please feel free to reach out with any questions you might have. Special requests welcome! Recently retired, so my schedule is pretty much open to loving and caring for your best friend while you’re away or just need a little extra support. Extended stays are ok! I do have a fenced in yard and a clutter free home for your pet to stretch out and make themselves at home. Special accommodations, no problem!
About: The best medicine is the unconditional love of your pet, I love dogs. I will take good care of him and I will play with them! I currently work part time, I will have plenty of time and space to play with them!! I am available from 8am to 1pm and at night I am responsible, friendly and affectionate, I will give you all my attention and I will make them happy with me! I love dogs and cats!

About: Three years ago, we rescue a tiny little puppy that was separated from his mom when he was only three weeks old. At the beginning, we didn’t know that he will make it, but with love, and patience, he made. Now he is a beautiful, healthy, and happy dog. I’m currently working part time. So I am able to take care of of your dog during the week and the weekends it could be morning time and evenings at this current time. I do not offer that service. But worth the time I would be able to offer this future service to my clients.

“Diana was a wonderful help during our vacation. She came once daily to walk our Pit/Lab Cabbage. Diana was extremely communicative about timing and was great about checking in with us. Cabbage seemed to love her company! We will definitely be using her services again. Thanks Diana!”
About: My family has had several dogs over the years and I’ve helped care for friends/family pets purely out of the enjoyment I have when being with animals! Now, I have my own dog, Hitchcock, who is my bestie. We take walks, go to the park and love hanging with other dogs. Currently WFH employee so my schedule is pretty lenient at the moment; I already take daily walks on my own time with my dog Hitchcock. I can be flexible! My apartment is large for the city, so there is room to roam. Not a lot of decor, so no worries about glass or getting into things. We have security cameras and two locks.
About: I have grown up with animals of all kinds in my home and life. Currently have two dogs and one cat, but have experience with most animals, big and small. I am always the one to call in my family and friend circle for any pet related need, help, or concern. I am also experienced in crate training for all dog ages. Currently I have a very flexible schedule. I do work from home so that allows for more time for animals. Can do short notice bookings when necessary. All fur-babies will get the care and attention needed while in my care. Whether that be extra potty breaks, walks, outside time, or just extra pets.
About: I love pets. Dogs will have fun at my place with a fenced in yard to run around in, and kids to play around with. I do have cats, but they generally stay away from dogs. If the dogs are comfortable with my cats, they will be allowed to interact. Dogs are allowed on furniture in my place, but if you prefer your dogs not to be allowed on furniture, I will follow your guidelines. As for walks, I love getting out and about and discovering places dogs like. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, and I do not get intimidated by barkers. I have never met a dog who did not like me. I like to show dogs respect and kindness, so that they feel comfortable around me. For my boarders, if requested, I can add grooming services. I will personally do their bath, and can have a groomer do their cut at the salon where I occasionally work. Price can be added to the boarding. I work part time at a pet grooming spa, only 1 or 2 days a week, on those days, my husband is able to care for all boarders since he works 3rd shift. Our 20 year old daughter also lives at home, so there is always an adult home. I have a fenced in yard, but my fence is a bit low, so all dogs are watched when they are outside. I also have a long lead I can attach dogs to in my yard. I have transportation in case of an emergency. I like to know the needs, strengths, and weaknesses of all pets in my care, so I can accommodate them as best as possible.
