“Donna did a wonderful job. I have two large very needed pits and she handled them wonderfuly. Was very communicative and trustworthy. I highly recommend.”

About: I’ve been caring for animals from a small child. Many people have called me the Animal Whisperer because the connection I have with animals and many experiences with animals in my lifetime. 

Our family of three children has owned many dogs and cats giving me experience with pets of different personalities, needs, and routines. I understand that every pet deserves patience, kindness, and individualized care. 

Whether it’s going for a walk, playtime, feeding, or simply providing companionship. I’ll treat your pet with the same love, attention, and respect I’d give my own. I’m a retired IT professional with over 45 years of customer service experience, which gives me the flexibility to work around your pet’s schedule and not the other way around. I’m dependable, punctual, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. In my free time, I love pickleball, walking, hiking, biking, whitewater rafting, music DJ, and volunteering in my community. An active lifestyle makes me a great companion for energetic pets, while my calm, patient nature helps shy or senior pets feel comfortable. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, or simply relaxing with a caring companion, I’ll provide the attention, affection, and reliable care they deserve. When caring for pets in your home, my goal is to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I’ll carefully follow your instructions for feeding, fresh water, medications (if needed), walks, litter box or yard cleanup, and playtime. I also understand that many pets simply enjoy companionship, so I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, and reassurance while you’re away. I’ll treat your home with the utmost respect, keeping it clean, secure, and exactly as you left it. Throughout each visit or stay, I’ll send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.

“So glad I booked Arrell! My two dogs loved him! Arrell sent sweet photos of them after the drop in visit, and I’ve already booked him a few more times :)”

About: I have raised two dogs from puppyhood and handled their training and daily care myself. Kenzie came home at six weeks old, and my husky joined our family at eight weeks old. My experience includes house training, crate training, leash manners, basic commands, socialization, teaching tricks from the past with my pets and all the love and cuddles in the world with a mountain of toys. Friends and neighbors have also trusted me to help with their dogs, especially with common behaviors such as jumping, pulling, nervousness, and adjusting to new routines. I use a calm, patient, and consistent approach, and I never force a dog into an unfamiliar situation before they are comfortable. I am experienced with puppies, large dogs, senior dogs, cats, dogs that are not crate trained, and multi-pet households. I can also administer oral medications, follow specific feeding instructions, prepare meals, and maintain detailed routines. I am also a breast cancer survivor for any of my warriors out there, and when lost my beloved 12-year-old husky Sophie, caring for other companions felt like a meaningful way to honor her memory. With that being said, any special needs dogs, senior dogs that have any disabilities, seizures, cancer or any other needs, just know we have extra care items for your fur baby if needed. My friends often joke that my husband and I are “animal whisperers” because pets tend to feel comfortable and relaxed around us. I work from home working on my start-up business, so I am home all the time! This gives me plenty of flexibility to provide consistent, attentive care throughout the day. I can accommodate regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, meals, medication schedules, drop-in visits, and overnight stays. Because I am home most of the day, pets receive companionship and supervision rather than being left alone for long periods. I care for every pet according to their normal routine, personality, energy level, and comfort needs and special needs. My home offers a large backyard for supervised playtime, exercise, and fresh air. There is also a covered gazebo with a grassy area where dogs can relax, cool down, or take a quiet break when needed. There are also two cameras outside as well so I can always have eyes on them no matter what! I am currently transforming my garage into a fun indoor dog jungle gym, although that space is still under construction. For now, pets can enjoy the backyard, comfortable indoor areas, regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of affection. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I carefully follow all feeding, medication, walking, household, and safety instructions. I also provide photos and updates so pet parents can feel comfortable and confident while they are away.

“Super helpful and amazing!”

About: I have always loved animals and growing up with many showed me how to love and care for all species. I have previously worked at a doggy daycare which also taught me how to cater to specific feeding schedules and care needs. I am a full time stay at home soon to be mom! Having time to get outside and go on walks is as important to me as it is to your fur babies. I love interacting with all types of animals and caring for them as well. I have 2 cats of my own and they are both fully vaccinated and up to date on shots. They are very shy but friendly. With that being said my home is very animal friendly with beds, toys, blankets, and cat towers all across for animals to play i have a balcony as well as a good area to go on walks near me

“Georgia has been a phenomenal sitter for our pup, a high energy, playful, but also somewhat apprehensive 9-month-old mini sheepadoodle. She is thorough in meeting all of our pup’s needs, including playing with her, working with her to go on walks outside, feeding her as we requested, and leaving detailed summaries for us on the visit- pictures included! We would highly recommend Georgia for sitting or walking services, and look forward to using her more!”

“Ethana was great! My skittish cat actually came out to say hello the first time she stopped by, and both of my cats really liked her right away. Your pets will be in good hands!”

About: As a dog mom myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your beloved pet while you’re away. My goal is to provide you with peace of mind by giving your pet the same love, attention, and care I would want for my own. I’ll provide daily check-ins, lots of cuddles, playtime, belly rubs, and plenty of love and attention. I’m also happy to follow your instructions closely, whether your pet needs a special routine, extra snacks, or their favorite toy nearby.Animals have always held a special place in my heart, and caring for them has been a passion of mine since I was young. I have experience caring for newborn puppies as well as senior dogs. No matter their age or personality, I’m committed to making sure every pet in my care feels safe, happy, and comfortable. My flexible work schedule allows me to adjust my availability around your pet’s needs. I can provide regular feedings, walks, playtime, and dependable care based on your request. When caring for your pet in your home, I'll maintain their routine and provide attentive supervision, especially during walks. Your pet’s safety and well being are always my top priorities. I’ll also keep you updated throughout the stay. If your pet stays in my home, they’ll have access to a fenced-in backyard and a friendly dog who is always ready for some playtime and companionship.

“Took great care of Meatloaf. I’m sure he’s found a new friend with Shakoya. Thank you for taking care of him when I was out of town a little longer than I anticipated.”

About: I have 2 rescue dogs. 1 is a mini-schnauzer/poodle mix and the other is a chow chow who was born with Pulminary Stenosis, a grade 6 heart murmur and was born with no eyeballs. I’m currently available full time to take your babies on a walk, do a drop-in or for overnight visits! I’m open for jobs 7 days a week! I have two fur babies at home. I’m happy to sit in the comfort of your own home so that your babies are in their safe space and their routine isn’t disrupted.

“Kaitlyn was great!! Dependable and communicative. Will definitely be requesting her assistance again!”

“Took great care of our boy, showed up when she said she would, communicated with me efficiently. Overall, super easy to work with, will be using her again.”

About: I'm Fear Free Certified, which means I'm trained to read a dog's body language and stress signals — that carries over into how I handle visits, not just grooming appointments. I've been around animals for almost 20 years and trained as a veterinary doctor in Venezuela, so I'm paying attention to more than just "did they eat and go outside" — I notice if something seems off, and I'm comfortable administering medication (oral or topical) as part of a visit. I especially like working with anxious, senior, and first-time dogs who need a calmer, more patient approach than a quick in-and-out visit. Every dog gets treated at their own pace, whether that's an extra few minutes of settling in or just sticking closely to their normal routine so the visit feels familiar, not disruptive. Grooming and pet care are the focus of my week, not squeezed in around anything else. I'm available weekday afternoons, and weekends are open too. I work at a Grooming Salon part time and I have my home-based studio Barkly's as well. I keep appointments spaced out on purpose rather than back-to-back, so pet care gets my full attention instead of being rushed between clients. I stick closely to whatever routine you leave me: feeding times, walks, medication if needed. Since I'm trained to read stress signals, I keep an eye on how your dog is settling in, not just whether the basics got done. If they're up for a walk, we'll go — if they'd rather stay in and decompress, we do that instead, whatever fits their normal day best.

“Haley was great with my dog with special needs. She followed instructions provided updates and showed she really cared. We would definitely use Haley as our sitter again. Thank you!”

“Sapphire was incredibly professional and very caring! Absolutely would book with her again”

Sean K.

“I can’t recommend Chloe enough. My animals are like my children and Chloe went above and beyond to ensure they were taken care of and comfortable while I was out of town. I would definitely use her services again and highly recommend her to others. Thank you again Chloe!”

About: I have loved dogs since I was child. My parents thought a great way to learn about responsibilities was through caring for a pet, and I am so grateful for them, for that. I have a Goldendoodle that I shower with love and affection, and I would love to do the same for your pup! I would love to care for your dog, whether you need a day sitter, or overnight sitter. I would be happy to cater to your dogs personal needs, whether your dog likes playing indoors, or spending time outdoors. I hope you consider me when choosing a sitter for your furry friend, because I can assure you they’ll have a great time and be in great hands! I hope to meet you soon. I currently work from home, so I’ll have plenty of time to shower your dog with all the love and attention they need. Also, I welcome boarding any day of the week. I live in a townhome in a safe community, so your dog and I can spend plenty of time outdoors. I also have a friendly Goldendoodle that loves to play with other dogs, so your dog will have another companion to play with.

About: I love having pets around and treat them all as if they are my own! I have volunteered at the Humane Society in college and take care of friends' pets in my free time. I've had dogs of my own in the past and love to play with them and go on walks. I can take them on long walks, to go swimming, to a field for fetch, or whatever activities you want your pet to be doing! I'll do whatever I can to help as needed to ensure the quality care of your pet so when you're busy you do not have to worry. If you need a house sitter I will be sure to not only take care of your pets but also respect your home! You can customize your dog’s visit to fit exactly what you want and I’ll send pictures/updates as often as you’d like. I work as a teacher during the day but I do not work on the weekends at all! I follow all wishes of the owner and send updates as frequent as you would like to ensure you know how everything is going the whole time! I work from 7:30-3:30 as a teacher, but also live with a partner who is happy to help! I do not work on the weekends. I follow all caretaker instructions and am happy to take pets to do their favorite activities. I want to provide love and comfort while owners are away.
