About: Graduated with a degree in Veterinary Technology in 2016, worked in clinic for 5 years until I became a stay at home mom. I am trained to administer medications of any kind for cats and dogs if needed as well as standard pet care. Additionally, I have been trained fear-free techniques to make any experience with your pets as nurturing and comfortable as possible while you're away. At this time, my schedule is open and flexible, and I have all the time needed to help care for your furry loved ones while you’re away 😊 While caring for your pets, I am happy to walk or monitor outside playtime, if yard is securely fenced. Feeding and watering, with ability to adapt to any special needs your pets may have. I can provide medications as needed. I will, of course, clean up any potential messes made, to the best of my ability, while you're away including scooping litterboxes and disposing of feces.


“Deanne provided daily drop-in dog walking for my 1 year old golden puppy, Daisy. Daisy is full of energy and can be a bit much but she always seemed happy when I got home from work after having a walk with Deanne. Deanne was always flexible with hours, often accomodating change in dog walking times as needed. She always sent photos of Daisy during or after the walks. I would highly recommend Deanne for her services!!”


About: I am starting a new chapter in life and now choosing to care for and love on your pets in your home! They have the truest hearts! At the present I am completely open regarding my schedule while I start a new chapter in life. I’m currently striving to start my own business and create my own schedule. I am available for pet sitting in your home as well as potty breaks, playtime, and walks. I am very detail oriented so please know your pets will be cared for in the exact manner in which you wish! Your animals will be loved and cared for just as you would.

About: i’m very attentive to animals! i’ve had mice, hamsters, a bunny, fish, and now a super sweet kitty! and my family has 2 pitbull mixes(very hyper!) and 40 chickens! My fiance , who i’ve been with for 5.5 years(6 in febuary!) is my doggie care partner, and loves animals just as much as me! your pets will be getting double the attention for the price of 1 person:) I’m available at all times as i’m trying to take college classes to pursue my baking career ! I am my Cat, gizmos, favorite person and he’s always following me around! i currently would be watching your dogs in your home . i am available for drop ins, and overnight if needed, If you have big dogs/multiple that need walking my boyfriend will be able to accompany me!

About: I've grown up with animals my whole life- cats, dogs, hamsters, guinea pigs, rabbits, reptiles, etc. I've taken care of pets of all ages, from young to senior. I am available all days of the week, including the weekends. My time schedule is flexible and I would also be able to do drop in visits or stay overnight as well. By following owner specific instructions when given, I strive to make both the pet(s), and thus the owner, feel safe while under my current care.

About: I’ve been taking care of pets since I was a kid, I also have experience as a kennel tech for over a year of helping with surgeries, recover, medication, anything under the sun I am comfortable doing it for your kiddo. I am comfortable with any dog or cat you throw at me, and of course make sure they feel loved and cared for. I work from home as a content creator or my whole day is pet care. The second I wake up I take my German shepherd for a walk before I even have my coffee in the morning, I include basic training alongside the walk as well. I get back from the walk and of course make sure my 3 cats are fed with all different dietary needs as my male cat has feline herpes so needs special treatment. I get ready for work but before I do I’ll take my dog out again, work, and basically is repeated from the morning. My main phrase I say is either what’s in your mouth or where’s your ball, even during work I will be throwing the ball for my dog, doing training on stream, or even telling my stream to pause as my dog needs attention. I devote every waking moment to my kids. Of course before I accept any job I would come and meet and your kids beforehand to make sure it is something I can handle and to get an idea how eat pet behaves.


“We starting using Lori about two weeks ago and she has been great. Chelsea, our dog, loves her. The weather had been rainy windy and cold lately but she is still taking great care of her and it truly puts my mind at ease while working knowing Chelsea is in good reliable hands. ”


About: I am primarily focused on getting more dog handling experience. I have volunteered at a shelter for 4 years and I have dog training experience as well. I eventually would like to train dogs as a career. I have an empty home with lots of love to give! Happy pets=peace of mind I typically work 4 days out of the week which means I have at least three days available to spend with your furry friends! I typically don’t have anything to do on my off days and I’d love to dedicate my time to your furry companion so they’re never short of love because love is what they deserve!! I currently live in a first floor apartment in the middle of the woods with scenic trails. Which means plenty of sniffs for your furry friends! I am very accommodating to your dogs needs whether that be administering medication, a soothing bath (free of charge), or sleeping with a certain toy/blanket.

About: I’ve grown up with two dogs—one small and one large—so I’m comfortable handling all sizes. I enjoy caring for high-energy dogs just as much as calm, cuddly ones. Whether it’s playtime or downtime, I adapt to each dog’s personality and needs. I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I do not have a job, I am looking but am currently unemployed and starting school again in August! I will have plenty of time to visit your pups this summer and even during school:) I have a fenced backyard with lots of space and trees for your dog to run around!! I have a Big German Shepard who is friendly and loves to play with other dogs outside!!

About: I tend to be able to understand a dog's motivations and emotions, and I can calm them if upset or discipline them kindly and effectively. I want to be an animal behaviorist, so I really make it a point to understand them. All dogs I have met love me, and I love them too, so it works well. Dogs are just trying their best to be a great companion, and when their companion is away, I can be there. I work well with cats and other animals, too. I have raised dogs to their old age, and I have fostered puppies. I have experience with dogs that don't want to listen very well, and dogs that listen to every word. I can look after your dog any time during the week, and occasionally during the weekend. If you have questions about my availability, feel free to ask. I am between jobs right now, so I have all the time in the world for you and your little buddies. Just let me know when! Your pets will be supervised inside the house and out. They'll receive any meals and medicines at the proper times, and go for as many potty breaks and walks as the little fellas want. You will have no mess to clean up when you return.

About: Ive taken care of dogs since I was 17. I’ve owned 4 dogs at one point. I have raised two litters of cats. I currently have one dog and one cat! I love animals and would love to help you give love to yours! Rover is my full time job so I am available! I will give your loved ones undivided attention! I will follow directions and make sure I give them lots of love and attention. I do not work currently. I only have to be at home at 2 to pick up my daughter from school. But I have a pretty open schedule. I walk my dog three times a day to ensure there aren’t any accidents at home. I have a gate in case i have to separate pets.

About: I have had dogs since I was 10 , and I've always had a passion for them. When I was younger, I would read books about every type of dog I could get my hands on. I'll be good for your pets because I'm able to adjust to every individual need for your animals. I've watched dogs for friends and family for many years while they were on vacation. I have spent the last few years working in commercial pet care at various daycare and boarding facilities. This includes dogs, cats, birds and various small rodents. I'm willing to do whatever it takes to make your dogs, and yourself as comfortable as possible. I'm happy to go on frequent walks of any duration or difficulty. I used to take one of my own dogs hiking so I'm willing and able to do whatever they are used to. I'm also happy to be at your home as frequently as you'd prefer, and I'd love to maintain open communication with you while you are away. I have also recently acquired a PACCC certification. I’m freelancing at the moment so I have an open schedule at the moment. I am available Mondays, and Wednesday - Saturday. Sundays are also available upon request. I always prefer to meet with pet parents so I can be aware of any potential safety problems in the home and when walking dogs I like to bring a secondary slip leash to use so that in case anything happens to the first leash/collar, your pet is unable to slip away from me.

About: I have had two Great Danes, an Anatolian Shepard mix, a great Pyrenees mix, and I currently own a pit bull. So truly no dog is too big or too small. Our furry friends are like our family and I would like to treat your like my own while you are away. I work from home so I am very flexible with my work schedule. I will work with you to make sure that your pet is getting the care they need throughout the day. I do have a fenced in yard but due to the breed of dog I personally own in home care in my own home will not be available. I am more than willing to travel to you and take care of your pets in your own home.

About: I put 30+ years of pet care experience on here but it’s really more like 45. I’ve been taking care of our family pets since I was 8 years old. I always took care of family and friend’s pets, stayed at their homes when they needed me to watch them or just played with their fur babies so they wouldn’t be alone during the day. I feel a very kindred connection towards dogs and cats (& other animals) and give them as much love and happiness as I can. I’m currently working part-time as a substitute teacher, so I have a lot of availability on the weekends and during the day, especially during the summer and spring break. Additionally, I create a schedule so I can work around yours and mine. I have a fenced in yard, but walk my dog daily on a leash when I take him out. He is showered in love and is very well behaved.

About: I am a trainer through and through, my mom can tell you how difficult it was to train my chihuahua. But we’re working on it and she’s doing great! I make sure my dog is taken out every morning before I head to school. Ensure that kitty is fed and especially my fish, can’t forget about him! My kitty is very independent, but Bella loves to cuddle. I make sure that I spend a couple minutes with her at least every hour!

About: It’s been a while since I offered services, but I’m getting back into it and would love to care for your babies! I have always been a dog owner - if I could rescue every dog in the world I would! Instead, I'll gladly help take care of other peoples' angels and call it a day. My sweet 11 year old dog loves to play and gets along with most everyone. She would love to make new friends and play with your pooch while you're away! I work from home so will always be around. I work from home so am always around - your dog will not be left alone! I have one dog and she enjoys to play, too! I have a yard that is partially fenced, so I will take your pup on walks or only be outside with them leashed. I take safety seriously!

Cailee H.
“If you’re looking for someone amazing with animals, look no further than Caliee. I can’t say enough great things about her—she’s just phenomenal. From the moment she started helping care for my dog and cats, I saw how naturally she connects with animals. She’s caring, intuitive, and genuinely kind, with a heart of gold. What sets her apart is how animals respond to her—it’s like they just get her. She guides and coaches them with ease, never harsh, but always in control. Honestly, I think my dog and cats might love her even more than they love me (and that’s saying something!). As someone who’s very protective of who spends time with my pets, I can say without hesitation: any animal in Caliee’s care is in the best hands possible. - Kari R.”

Cielo C.
“Cielo C. is a truly kind and compassionate person who absolutely loves animals. We were roommates for a year, and during that time, I got to see just how naturally caring and responsible she is—especially with pets. One of our other roommates got a puppy at the start of college, and from day one, Cielo stepped in like a second pet parent. She took care of that little dog as if it were her own—feeding, walking, playing, and making sure it felt safe and loved. I always admired how patient and gentle she was. Any pet would be lucky to have Cielo looking after them, and I know she’d treat them like family. She’s reliable, loving, and someone you can truly trust with your furry best friend.”
