About: With a pupper in our homes since before we can remember and experience caring for multiple other people's dogs, we've got what it takes to care for your dogs, no matter the size, and leave their tails wagging. We have experience caring for dogs after medical procedures and dogs with bladder issues, different energy needs, different anxiety levels, and partial blindness. Need a walk, food, refilling water, playing, ear scratches? We're there. And don't worry, we were sending lots of pictures before Rover cards, so rest assured that you'll get to see your precious pup (or pups) while you're away. With one us freelancing and the other in a flexible, remote job, our schedule is very flexible and we can be there to take care of your pet whenever you need! Morning, afternoon, evening - you name it and we'll be there. We have always had at least one pet at home with different preferences in how they like to be loved. Even so, our experience has shown us that no matter the pet, patience, kindness, affection, and quality time equate to a happy fur baby and that is what your pet will get from us. We believe that going beyond any beloved pet’s basic needs is the bare minimum. Even during short 30-min or 1-hr check-ins with your pet, we will cram in as much as we can to ensure they are happy and content including grooming, cleaning, playing, photography for parents, and more. Our genuine love for furry friends will ensure an excellent experience for your cat or dog.

“Erika went above and beyond with taking care of our two kitties while we were traveling, communicating with us every step of the way, sending us adorable photos, keeping the cat areas clean, and even offering to bring in our mail. You can tell our cats felt so comfortable with her, even our one cat who is usually very skittish and always hides away from strangers. I would highly recommend booking Erika to care for your furry loved ones, and we will definitely book her again if we need a sitter in the future!”


About: I have taken care of a dog from fifth grade all the way up until high school, including training, walking, playing, feeding and just hanging out! I also have cat sitting experience with many services there! I’m currently saving up for college, so I’m very free during all of the days! I just have practices in the evening. I can’t wait to meet your pets! I can very easily do any task asked of me in the client’s home. Whether it is feeding, creating, playing, walking, or just hanging out! I will be sure to love your pet as my own.

About: I have a history of 5 years plus with dog grooming and boarding. I also house my own pets. Which are 2 dogs , 2cats and a turtle. It almost feels essential. Not just for daily motivation but also mental stimulation. Pairing up with a pet is therapeutic in itself and honestly just a rewarding feeling. Naturally I will adjust to what the setting of environments are around me. If the pet needs a mile walk I’ll do that. If a pet needs play time in the yard I’m outside too. Closed fences no problem I’ll roll around with fur kids !!

About: I have two dogs of my own, and I am quite experienced with handling dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I have received training on how to better understand the signals that dogs give us in order to determine how they are feeling (scared, excited, cautious, angry, etc.), and I have applied that training to my previous job at a doggy daycare countless times. I graduated college in December of 2016, and I’m still figuring out how to combine my Hospitality Management degree and my passion for caring for animals! I really enjoy dog walking because I find happiness in knowing that I provide comfort and peace of mind to those owners who aren’t able to be with their fur babies in the middle of the day!

About: I worked at petsmart for 5 years as a manager, worked along side really good trainers. I have 3 dogs of my own. My babies. I am currently working part time and would love to walk your dogs when you’re at work, take some stress off your plate and let them get out some energy. I have stayed for weeks at a time at different family members houses to house sit, my brother in law has 7 dogs I’ve watched!

“Kayla is a fantastic cat sitter. My cat doesn’t warm to people quickly, but Astrid made friends with Kayla on the first day. I lt was such a relief to know that my cat was so being well cared for while I was gone.”


About: I grew up with labs since I was young and now in my adult life, I have two sweet Golden Retrievers. I've trained my dogs since they were puppies so I have a ton of experience (and patience) with dogs. I know a lot of tips and tricks for expending their energy and keeping them happy. Dogs need the right care, attention and loving approach, so they can be the loyal companions they're meant to me. I'll always treat your dogs with kindness & send you pics of all our fun times and adventures. I'm currently working part-time and from home so I have a very flexible schedule at the moment. I don't mind overnight visits either (after 9pm). I have a fully fenced in yard and two incredibly sweet dogs to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed. Whether we’re spending time on the couch or in the yard that backs up to a privately owned farm with mountain views, we’ll have a blast!

About: I grew up with dogs and have helped care for them for the majority of my life. I have had several puppies and owned several large dogs, so I have no age or size restrictions. Unfortunately, my dog passed away last year, but I gained a lot of experience caring for elderly dogs in the process. I have a lot of experience taking care of dogs, including: overnight care, staying at the dog owner's house, dog walking, and check-ins. I am currently looking for a job, so my schedule is very open. This means I can spend more time with your pets when I come to care for them! I strongly believe that you should leave a place better than you found it. I will make sure your home is always left in pristine condition. As a former teacher, I am great at maintaining a calm demeanor, which pets respond really well to.

“Olivia is amazing. We met up a week or so prior to when I was leaving and she was instantly a vibe! She was completely honest with her communication to make sure my dogs were comfortable and for her sake as well! I highly recommend her if you’re looking for someone to take care of your pets! She definitely made me know my dogs were in great care. The dogs looked so happy with photos she took every drop in of the same day! Definitely going to book again in the future. The dogs absolutely adore her! Thank you, Olivia!”


About: Hi, I’m Shaun! I’ve been raised with dogs my whole life, and I absolutely love being around them. With years of hands-on experience, I understand that every dog has their own personality and needs. Making sure your pup feels safe, comfortable, and cared for is always my top priority. This summer, I’m available for daytime walks and would love the opportunity to get to know your pups! I work as a Behavior Support Specialist in an elementary school leaving me with summers of and lots of flexibility to work around your pups schedule! When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on providing a safe, loving, and consistent environment. I follow each pet’s routine for feeding, exercise, medication, and playtime to reduce stress and keep them comfortable. Whether it’s drop-in visits, walks, or overnight care, I make sure pets get the attention, affection, and structure they need to feel secure while their owners are away.

Faith K.
“We have two golden retrievers (1- and 6-years old) who love to play with human friends, as well as each other. When looking for a dog sitter, we want someone who will stay with the dogs in our house. Someone who loves dogs and who will give them all sorts of attention, both during active play time and snuggling rest time. Someone who keeps a close enough eye on them to keep them out of trouble and safe. Someone we can trust with both the dogs and the house. Someone the dogs trust and are so happy to see. Someone we are so comfortable with that when we go on a trip, we do not need to worry about whether the dogs are ok. The perfect pet setter. Faith is such a pet sitter, and we recommend her highly. Thanks for taking such good care of our pups Faith!”
