“If you are looking for a confident, outstanding, trustworthy person to come take care of your fur babies, look no further ! Keri takes amazing care of my large goofball Captain, not being scared away by his weird barking habits in the crate. Within two minutes of meeting her he was rolling over on his belly and giving her kisses! I don’t need to worry at all about the safety and care of my dog with Keri ❤️book with her !!!!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter than Grace! She took wonderful care of our dog Tilly while we were away for our engagement party. From the start, Grace was incredibly responsive and made sure she understood everything she needed to know about Tilly’s care. She checked in on her three times throughout the day and kept us updated with messages and adorable photos during each visit, which gave us such peace of mind. It was clear that Tilly was comfortable and happy in her care. We’re so grateful for Grace’s reliability and attentiveness—highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful and responsible sitter!”

About: I've always believed life is better with fur on your clothes and after years of caring for my own pets, I turned that passion into something bigger. Now I get to spend my days doing what I love most: caring for your four-legged family members while you're away. I make sure your pet gets the attention, love, and care they deserve. As a lifelong pet parent myself, I get how important it is to find someone you trust with your furry family. That's why I treat every cat and dog like one of my own with patience, playfulness, and lots of love. So whether your dog needs a walking buddy or your cat needs someone to chat with while you're out, I'm here to help with a leash in one hand and a lint roller in the other. I am devoting all of my time to dog walking and pet sitting, so I will have plenty of time to play with your pet. I am happy to come to your home to care for your pet for either dog walking or pet sitting. I will care for your pet as if it were my own!

About: I have been a lifetime animal lover, and grew up with dogs as soon as I was born! I've had both larger dogs - a dalmatian and smaller - a schnauzer. Now my husband and I have a medium sized Australian Labradoodle! I would be so excited to come walk your dog or drop in for a visit while you are away! I am experienced with both puppies and older dogs. I am a teacher with full availability this summer; I am very reliable and ready to communicate fully for your peace of mind whether you are working or traveling in June, July or August! I am an elementary school teacher off for the summer, so I am fully flexible to give your pet the care and attention it deserves! I would care for your dog like it’s my own! I am very considerate and if dropping by your house I would treat it with respect as well.
About: Growing up in wild and wonderful West Virginia, I worked on a family farm and took care of friend’s and family’s pets. So it was natural that I developed an affection for animals. I fell in love with my own dog, a Labrador Retriever, at 16 and named him Bucks! I’ve taken care of many different types of animals besides cats and dogs, such as Guinea pigs, chickens, iguanas, sugar gliders and more! In recent years, I was employed in a dog boarding and training facility called ‘The Happy Retriever.’ Then I was able to gain more pet care experience working for another pet sitting business named ‘Heart and Paws Pet Sitting.’ I am presently a proud member of Pet Sitters International, thru which I have completed Pet First Aid & CPR training and have ongoing education in pet care! Sunday - Saturday I’m a proud business owner and a full time pet sitter! I love all the furry friends I get to make in all sizes and continue my pet behavior and wellness education so I can provide the best care possible! I keep my visits with your pets as close to their usual routine as possible and I treat them as you would! Sometimes a different route for a walk is a good thing and builds confidence in your pet! It all depends on your pet’s needs and everyone’s comfort! I would like to see your pet be healthy and self confident! I have pet sitting insurance as well! Scheduling meet and greets before any services is the best way we can go over the routine and build trust with you and your pet!
About: I have watched friends and family’s members pets for the last few years. As well as went to there houses to feed and play with them!! I just graduated college and am home till further notice so my schedule is super flexible to fit you and your dog’s needs. I am available most week days and weekends! I have grown up with dogs my whole life and have lots of experience with them. I have a dog now and a big fenced in yard.

Aaron F.
“Aaron has been nothing short of amazing with our English bulldog Fleury who if anyone knows is considered a high maintenance breed. What’s so special about Aaron is he continues to go the extra mile to make sure Fleury always receives a safe and enjoyable walk. Or if he is dog sitting we know Fleury is in extra good hands. Aaron will always arrive on time, give extra love and attention to Fleury and provide amazing service every time. I have been here a few times when Aaron has arrived to take him for a walk while I work and you can tell the bond they both have. Fleury’s excitement when he sees him walking to the door is very telling. Aaron has gone out of his way to even brings packages in if they are on the doorstep. Being that Fleury is high maintenance Aaron always makes sure to wipe his paws and wrinkles after every walk and visit. If Aaron dog sits he knows exactly the ins and outs of Fleurys day and feedings and never have to worry as he sends many updates and pictures. We know we can always depend on Aaron no matter if it's raining, sleeting, snowing or sunny.”
