About: I’ve always loved animals, and I’ve had cats and dogs throughout my life (wishing I could have all the animals!). When I was younger, I would cuddle up with my pets and even read to them. Back in high school, I worked at a local grooming salon, where I bathed dogs and cats. Since then, caring for animals has continued to be something I truly enjoy. I’ve been pet sitting for the past 7 years and have loved getting to know not only the pets, but their owners as well. I’ve also trained my own cat to do all kinds of fun tricks! I deeply understand how much our pets mean to us, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I know how important it is to feel comfortable and confident leaving your pets in someone else’s care. I look forward to getting to know you and your pets and giving them all the love, attention, and care they deserve. Starting October 6th 2026 my availability is pretty open. Please take a look at my availability because some days may change or send me a message. My cat has feline herpes and daily I give him oral medication to help calm his outbreak. It's not curable but I try to manage it. I have taken care of pets who need medication 1-3 times a day. I do my best to make pets feel comfortable as much as possible.
About: I’ve cared for all pets since 2018—puppies to seniors, shy to high-energy, all kinds of dogs, cats, and even farm animals. I bring a calm, comfortable, and very reliable experience. Over the years, I’ve worked with pets of all personalities and routines, and I’m very attentive, adaptable, and detail-oriented in my care. I’m also comfortable handling more sensitive or unexpected situations, and always stay calm, present, and proactive. I naturally build strong, lasting relationships with both pets and their owners, creating a level of trust that keeps clients coming back. My goal is to create a safe, consistent, and genuinely comfortable experience for every pet, while making sure owners feel informed, confident, and completely at ease. My days naturally revolve around caring for the pets I’m trusted with, while giving my clients true peace of mind; I genuinely love what I do. I build genuine, lasting bonds with each pet, taking the time to understand their personality, needs, and little quirks. I create a calm, comfortable environment where your pet feels safe, understood, and truly cared for with consistent attention, quality time, and lots of love. I’m very attentive when it comes to communication and keeping you updated. You can expect consistent, thoughtful updates with photos so you always feel connected and at ease while you’re away. With my experience since 2018, I’ve handled a wide range of situations, including more sensitive or unexpected ones, which has taught me to stay calm, attentive, and proactive. Your pet’s safety and your peace of mind are always my top priorities.

Communication was great! Sarah is friendly and punctual. She was able to juggle my complicated schedule to get my dog out and walking.

I was extremely impressed with Riley. From the moment she greeted my dog. I knew that she was gonna be a good fit. Our meet and greet let me to believe that she’s outstanding. She asked extremely valuable questions. She’s very well organized. I would highly recommend her for anything pet related.
Grace was always punctual, positive and truly enjoyed being with my pet. She was organized and worked out times and dates with me in advance of her walks. I recommend her highly to anyone who is looking for an energetic person to care for their animal. Please contact me, I can’t sing her praises enough.
I couldn’t recommend Shawn enough! He took such great care of my dog, was a great communicator, reliable, and sent updates everyday. I could tell my dog was in great hands and he looked very happy in every video or photo update I received. I would definitely hire Shawn again. Thank you, Shawn!
Met up with Hannah for a meet and greet with my dog and she was great. My husky is a tough guy to walk sometimes if you lack confidence but she took him on and had full control. I’m excited to continue to work with Hannah and for her and my dog to build a relationship. Can’t wait for the next walk!
I'm a type A worry wart when it comes to my furry family members. I am so very thankful that Kayla was able to help us navigate a last minute request to look in on my dog and cat.
