“Tori made our vacation truly stress-free by caring for our two dogs while we were away. Her updates were fantastic, and we had absolutely no doubts that our fur-babies were in good hands. She is responsible and kind, timely, and her love for animals is always apparent. She is a top-notch sitter.”

“Kimberley was awesome with our two dogs and cat. She was especially great with giving one of our fur babies his medication when he had an unexpected injury and cleaning up after them. I loved the updates and pictures which really showed how happy our babies were with Kimberley’s visit! From the first moment our Princess laid quietly in her arms I knew we made the right choice. I’d definitely recommend her and will be using her again.”

About: About Me Hi, I’m Marissa, owner of Shining Light’s K9 Services! Open all year round. I have extensive experience caring for dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments—including those with aggression, reactivity, or other behavioral challenges. Over the years, I’ve worked in multiple dog hotels/doggy daycares, in pet grooming, and as a freelance trainer, giving me a well-rounded understanding of canine care and behavior. I specialize in creating a safe, structured, and comfortable environment for every dog I work with. Whether your pet needs a calm walk, a high-energy run, targeted training, or simply loving companionship, I tailor my approach to their unique needs. Administering medications is never an issue, and I pride myself on excellent communication so you can feel at ease while you’re away. Your dog’s safety, happiness, and progress are always my top priorities. With me, your fur baby will be in experienced, loving, and capable hands. Pet care is my full-time job and passion. I run my own business, Shining Light’s K9 Services, from home, so caring for dogs is part of my daily routine from morning to night. I structure my day around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, training sessions, and any special care each pet needs. Because this is my full-time work, I have the flexibility to give your pet consistent attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. In my home, I offer multiple sleeping options so your dog feels at ease—whether that’s a cozy crate, a comfy dog bed in my living room, or even in my bedroom if that’s what they’re used to. I maintain a clean, secure environment, with constant supervision and safe spaces for rest or play. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow your instructions exactly to keep their routine consistent and stress-free. I make sure food, water, and medications are given on schedule, and I always take time for walks, play, and affection. Whether at my home or yours, my goal is to ensure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away.

About: I have a love and passion for pets! A weakness in my heart, I have always taken care of animals having so many in my life. From pet sitting my friends, family members, and even taking care of my own when I got my first ever dog at six years old- my baby BooBoo (a terrier mix). I have a passion for all animals even our little snake and reptile friends. I know it is very anxiety-inducing when leaving a pet to a stranger, but I still have a hard time letting my dog be watched by my friends! So I know it's a process for both the owner and the pet. I am very loving, caring, and patient with pets and see them as more than just the title "pet" but part of the family! I work part-time and am a college freshman, so I am usually free on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays. Whenever days open up for me I will list them immediately! I carefully overview the loving instructions I get from the pet owner and be sure to carefully follow them through while also being very attentive, caring, patient, and loving with these pets. I never want to put pets through a stressful situation and make sure the owner feels anxiety free when leaving their pet in my care. I will always care for the pet as if it was my own.

“Rebecca was amazing! She watched my 3 bunnies (yup, bunnies) for a week and took great care of them! I’m pretty sure they weren’t all that excited to have me back ?. It only did she feed them, she changed litter boxes, spent time socializing, let me know when the house was a little warm (during this insane heat wave), went to the store and bought more fresh greens, took amazing photos, and gave them adorable treat bags. I will 100% be rehiring her when we need to leave town again. Bunny parents- shes’s your woman!”

About: Iv taken care of animals my whole life and house sit for my neighbors all the time. I play with them feed and water them. I do work part time. My main schedule is a bit all over the place but if you message me I can always make pet sitting work.I do go in the mornings before work and go after work and spend most of my time with the pet playing and taking for walks of pet is a dog. I unfortunately do not stay the night I have a young son at home. I can cater to any need that you have for your pets. If you crate your dog I can do that I can let them out when need.

“Andrea took exceptional care of our babies!! My husband and I went on vacation during the midst of Hurricane Hillary and Andrea went above and beyond to ensure our babies were safe and taken care of! With our permission, she boarded our kitties to her home so they wouldn’t be left alone during the hurricane. She made sure they were well fed and comfortable, even bringing their favorite toys and kneading blankets with her. I’m so so grateful for Andrea and her attentiveness. She’s a wonderful pet caretaker. Thank you so much Andrea!!?”

About: I’ve grown up with pets all my life. I’m known as the dog whisperer in my family. My friends have always relied on me to watch their babies! Always feel free to reach out with any questions. I have pets so it’s already an essential part of my daily routine to care for animals. I’m very organized and plan ahead to have enough time to get to them. I have doggies at home with a fence and lock that way no one can escape into the street. I have playtime with my dogs in the yard .

About: I’ve had animals my entire life, so I have gained quite a bit of experience taking care of them and picking up after them. I absolutely love animals with all my heart, and have cared for all sorts of them: cats, dogs, turtles, fish, birds, you name it! I am extremely responsible and have the patience and love to fulfill all of your pet’s needs! I feed my dog and cats every day. I pick up after them in the yard every couple weeks. I walk my dog occasionally, but play with him every day. I pet and play with my cats all the time! In my client’s home, I follow all instructions and timelines. I show love and care to each and every animal. I clean up after the animals when needed. Whatever you request, I will do! And more!

“Wanqiu was amazing with our cat, Nana. She’s very attentive and sent lots of detailed photos which gave us great peace of mind. We would definitely book her again!”

“Quetzaly has been wonderful with our pets. She first sat for our cat, Gemini, and we felt like she took such great care of her that we never had to worry while we were away. Because of that great experience, we thought she would be a great sitter for our 5-month-old puppy, Sesame. My partner was out of town for the weekend and I was working nights that week, so we needed someone to watch Sesame, and Quetzaly was available on short notice. We’re so happy we booked with her—Sesame clearly had a great time! Quetzaly followed all of our instructions carefully and took great care of our girl. She kept us updated with pictures and the Rover card, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. We never had to worry about Sesame while we were away. We would absolutely love to have her sit for us again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone to take great care of their fur babies.”

“Thank you Megan! Bolt loves seeing you and we are so thankful for you! Even on such short notice, you’re always so quick to respond and we have such peace of mind! You’re the best!”

“Jennifer is truly the best and our doggies love her! Sometimes things come up and we can’t get home to them right away and Jennifer is is our life saver. Her drop in visits are so helpful and she has always been flexible and available. She’s fantastic with our doggies from playing, giving them pets, water refills, potty breaks and walks. Her communication is great from checking in, to sending pics and making sure all needs are met. In addition, Jennifer has done multiple house stays while we’ve been on vacation and we never have to worry about our fur babies! 🐶 If I could give Jennifer a 10 star I would, she’s that great!”

About: Ever since I was a little girl, I’ve always seen pets as a companion. I enjoy spending time with animals, bathing them, playing with them, feeding them and walking them. I’m a responsible hard working and lovable person. I will treat your dogs as if they were my own. Also I love to take the time to sing to them because I believe every dog has their own personality and when given the right caretaker they behave in a respectful manner. Your animals need someone like me to show them love & affection. Not only will I give them attention but I can provide them to learn how to be potty trained, learn how to play fetch and teach them to sit & roll over.

“ivy was fantastic with my animals and was patient with my wild puppy. im very appreciative!”
