About: As many others I’ve grown up having multiple pets. I have always had a passion for caring for animals. I worked at an animal shelter where I provided the best care whether it was dog walking, giving vaccinations, drawing blood, and more. I am a stay at home mom currently so I have plenty of time to devote to taking care of animals. I want to be able to incorporate daily outings into my routine. I have two friendly dogs and two cats. We have a large yard without a fence, but two long attached leads. We also have a decent sized house that allows for indoor play.

About: For over 8 years, I’ve nurtured my sweet domestic shorthair kitty through her battle with feline lower urinary disease, mastering the art of keeping her happy and comfortable. When my partner joined me, I gained an adventurous 8-year-old Chihuahua mix who’s become my best buddy—together, we explore the world. My pet care approach blends love, patience, and practical know-how, ensuring every furry friend feels safe, cared for, and cherished. After recently stepping away from a position that wasn’t the right fit, I’m dedicating my time to pursuits that genuinely bring me joy—like spending quality moments with pets. My open and adaptable schedule allows me to give the attention and care every furry friend deserves. Whether it’s taking a dog on a lively walk or providing a cozy environment for a cat to feel safe and loved. I treat every client’s home with the utmost respect, ensuring their pets feel secure and loved in their familiar surroundings. I prioritize safety by carefully following instructions, maintaining clean and comfortable spaces, and keeping a watchful eye on their well-being. With a nurturing approach, I build trust with pets through kindness, patience, and attentiveness. My goal is to provide a calm and reassuring presence, so both pets and owners feel confident in my care.

“Wonderful person to meet lots of animal knowledge and very helpful and understanding”


“Megan is wonderful with Athena! She also communicates regularly and is very helpful when schedules change! I highly recommend!”


About: 5+ year experience dog sitting for a husky who needed extra love for his anxiety when mom was away - including lots of walks and medication. 6+ years experience dog sitting for elderly dogs who required medication twice a day. Years of experience watching multiple dogs and cats in the same house - able to manage their individual feeding/medication/walk/play schedules. Currently working part time remotely from home so I am able to slip out to give your loved furbabies some love/walks/play time/etc. I am able to stay overnight at your home with the animals if given enough notice. I try to continue whatever schedule the pup/kitties are on to make them the most comfortable with a new person there to take care of them.

About: I am a veterinary student. I'm comfortable caring for animals at every stage of life—including neonates (newborns). I understand the special attention, feeding schedules, warmth, and monitoring that newborn puppies and kittens need to thrive. In addition to neonatal care, I’m also experienced with senior pets, including administering medications and mobility support. Whether it's a playful puppy, a gentle senior, or a fragile newborn, I tailor my care to each animal's needs with patience, knowledge, and lots of love. You can trust that your pet is in caring, capable I'm very flexible and have plenty of time. As of now when I am a student, I will be free to take nights throughout the week I have three indoor cats they are not allowed to go outside. Because it is too dangerous in my area. I have tracker callers on them and harnesses and leads, if thay want to go on walks and explore

“This was our first time using Rover. Beth was everything we could hope for. Our dog is pretty skittish, but Beth endeared herself to our anxious pup in no time. Beth communicated well, posted pictures, and did everything I asked of her. We highly recommend Beth and will definitely call on her again!”

About: I have my own dog. I've grown up with dogs. I worked at a pet store when I was a teenager, and have house/pet sat before. Although, I'm not a vet, I'm observant and will keep an eye out for issues that concern you. Pet health is important. That includes nutrition and grooming. I know some think there is such a thing as over involved pet parents, I think they're family and should be treated as such. I volunteer at my church every Thursday, Backpack Program fifth Wednesdays (when they occur) and Orphan Grain Train every other month on the third Thursday. Otherwise, I take care of my dad who has COPD. I have to be home to cook for him. And take care of my own dog. Eventually, I will allow dogs to stay with me overnight, but I want to make sure my dog and said dogs get along. So that is my availability. I have a pitbull mix. She is very good around other dogs. Especially after she gets to know them. She's not aggressive, just tends to hump when excited. All dogs will need a leash if they are coming with me. I have walking trails in my community. I have no problem walking your dogs in them. Please make sure they have up to date tick meds. Also I live with my dad he will be petting and loving any pet that spends the night. My house is two story, so if you have a senior dog that needs help just let me know.

“I have used Emily serval times to care for our dog and cats. She has always exceeded our expectations. Our dog, Maverick, loves to be outside and when she goes to walk him, she will spend quite a bit of time just sitting with him outside. He is in Heaven!! We have actually run into her with her own dogs at the dog park and Maverick always runs right up to her with his tail wagging! We couldn't ask for a better dog walker/sitter for our baby!”
