About: I’ve been working with dogs for over 19 years and provide a structured, calm, and safe environment in my home. I have a dedicated dog room with secure kennels, supervised interaction, and clear boundaries. I currently own and train multiple dogs, including a fully trained service animal and another dog I’ve personally raised and developed. This gives me strong experience with behavior, energy management, and different personalities. Dogs in my care are treated like family, but with structure. They can enjoy comfort like furniture once they demonstrate respectful behavior and cleanliness. I do not allow destructive or uncontrolled habits. I’m comfortable with puppies and can reinforce basic training, routine, and good behavior during their stay. I also provide advanced training reinforcement as part of my care. Dogs naturally work on obedience, confidence, impulse control, and daily mental and physical engagement while they’re here. I have experience building service-style task foundations and higher-level behavior, but I do not certify service animals. Every dog benefits from structure in my home, whether they need basic manners or more advanced work. My focus is safety, consistency, and communication so every dog is properly supervised, exercised, and leaves more balanced, responsive, and confident. Pet care is part of my daily routine, not something I fit in on the side. I’m home most of the day, which allows me to provide consistent supervision, structured interaction, and regular potty breaks, exercise, and mental engagement. My background in disciplined environments has shaped how I run my home—dogs here benefit from routine, clear expectations, and a calm, controlled atmosphere. Each day includes a balance of activity, training reinforcement, and rest so dogs stay healthy, settled, and stress-free. Because I’m available throughout the day, I can adapt to each dog’s needs—whether that’s higher energy, puppy structure, or a more relaxed pace. My goal is to provide dependable, attentive care so owners can feel confident their dog is safe, engaged, and well looked after at all times. Safety, trust, and structure are the foundation of how I care for every dog. My home is set up specifically for pet care, with a dedicated dog room, secure kennels, and supervised interaction at all times. I carefully manage introductions and only allow dogs to interact once they are calm, balanced, and a good fit. Dogs in my care follow a structured routine that includes regular potty breaks, exercise, mental stimulation, and rest. I maintain clear boundaries while still allowing comfort—dogs can enjoy furniture and a relaxed environment once they demonstrate respectful behavior and cleanliness. I require dogs to be crate familiar or comfortable with structured downtime. Owners are encouraged to provide a crate or familiar setup for overnight stays, though I have limited kennel space available if needed. I prioritize communication and will keep owners updated with how their dog is doing. My goal is to provide a calm, controlled environment where dogs feel safe, are properly supervised, and leave more balanced and well cared for than when they arrived.
“Holly is an amazing sitter! She was very flexible, willing to accommodate a last minute request, and also makes sure you feel reassured with pictures throughout the day and night. Thank you, Holly!”

“Nicky was a fantastic pet sitter. She did a great job taking care of my two pups. They had a bedroom to bunk in, and the photos Nicky sent showed them having a great time with Nicky's dogs. I will 100% consider boarding our dogs with her for future trips.”
“Nikki was great.. she kept us updated with pictures to let us know our dog was good. She’s very communicative and very sweet and caring with our dog. I would definitely use her again. We have a very spoiled dog. He’s use to us in and out majority of the day. I’m sure he whined but she really didn’t tell us he whined all day. Thanks so much for keeping our baby.”


“Tiera is absolutely amazing. My fur baby loved her and was very comfortable with her and her home. Her dog was also very welcoming to my dog and they got along great. She played fetch with him, took him from walks, and spent time with him. She kept me updated each day with pictures and text messages of what he was doing. She was very accommodating for early drop off when i needed it and was willing to work with me if I was late for pick up. I highly recommend her and look forward to using her in my near future”
About: I stand out as a pet sitter because I genuinely love spending time with dogs and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. I’m reliable, patient, and attentive to each dog's unique needs, whether that means sticking to a feeding schedule, going on walks, or just providing companionship. I have experience caring for dogs of different ages and temperaments, including senior dogs who may need extra attention. My goal is always to make sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved while in my care. Pet care fits into my routine seamlessly, as I have flexible availability throughout the week. Since I’m in school, I’m free after 3 PM on weekdays, after 12 PM on Tuesdays, and available anytime on weekends. This allows me to dedicate quality time to each pet ensuring they get the attention and care they need. When caring for pets in my home, I ensure they have a comfortable and safe environment. My apartment complex has a designated doggy area, providing a great space for pets to play and get fresh air. I follow their usual routines, including feeding schedules and any special care instructions, to help them feel at home. In a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining their pet’s normal routine to reduce stress. I make sure they are fed on time, have fresh water, get exercise, and receive plenty of companionship. My goal in both settings is to provide loving, reliable care so pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away.
“As my best friend has gotten older and developed health issues, it’s so comforting to know he’s being cared for by such wonderful people. Trust is priceless, and I completely trust Heather and David”
“Brittany and her family were truly one of a kind! Ace felt right at home with them and her son young son Everest! I think he and Ace would call eachother on FaceTime every night from here on out if Ace had thumbs 🐾 LOL! 10 out of 10 we’ll be back again!”

“Excellent!! Lori is an amazing petsitter! She sent me pictures and updates and had a fenced in back yard as well as a doggy door. My babies didn't want to leave! She truly treated Cable and Floof like her own fur children! She asked me questions any time she wasn't sure about their food or habbits. I'm so glad I found her! Will be using her every time we go out of town!”
“Kanieshawa was so awesome! She took such great care of my puppy and sent me daily updates with photos. I am one happy customer and will definitely be returning with my dog. 10 out of 10!!!”
