About: With a lifetime of dog ownership under my belt, I offer the patient, seasoned perspective of a true "dog person." I have cared for dogs at every stage of life, from energetic adults to those in their golden years who require a gentler touch and extra patience. What sets me apart is my commitment to undivided, one-on-one attention. Because I understand that some pets prefer their own space, I never bring my own dog, Shadow, on visits. This allows me to focus entirely on your pet’s specific needs, whether they are a playful adult who needs a brisk walk or a senior who prefers a slow sniff around the block. I bring the same level of reliability and devotion to your home that I have given my own pets for decades. As a self-employed professional working from home, my schedule is incredibly flexible. This allows me to prioritize your pet's needs throughout the day, whether they require a mid-day stroll, a potty break, or just some company. Unlike a traditional 9-to-5, I can easily shift my tasks to ensure I am available for consistent visits and reliable care, giving your dog the attention they deserve while you are away. provide attentive care exclusively in your home to ensure your pet stays comfortable in their familiar environment. My visits are entirely focused on maintaining your dog's specific routine, whether that involves refreshing water bowls, administering meals, or enjoying quality playtime. I prioritize safety and security at all times, making sure your home is locked up and your pet is happy and settled before I depart. Since I don't host pets in my own home, your dog receives my full, undivided attention during every single visit.
“We were able to enjoy our trip without worrying about our pups. Haleigh shared pictures of them when she would greet them, out in the yard, and when she was feeding them. The visit summaries were comforting. We have many trips planned and with schedule again with Haleigh!”
“Ashley is everything anyone would want in a sitter for ther pets. My dogs are always excited to see her and she always sends me notes about the visit along with pictures. I highly recommend her.”

About: We have had my family dog for over 10 years and I had the pleasure of learning how to train a puppy. From potty training to teaching her tricks, it was such an experience to be able to grow up alongside a furry family member. I typically work about six to eight hours a day, monday-friday. I am completely free nights and weekends and am willing to do check-ins as needed. As someone who owns pets, I would want a caretaker to treat them with the best care they can provide, which is what I strive to do.

My rescue dog, Orville, has taught me the value of meeting dogs where they are, whether they need extra reassurance, structure, playtime, or simply a calm companion.
