About: I love dogs of all ages young and old. I have had dogs and loved them my whole life. We have a jack russle named Indy who loves to hike and go on adventures with us. He is very friendly and loves other dogs and cats. He's the coolest calmest jack you'll ever meet. I am currently a homeschool Mama. So I am here full time. I have one dog and two cats. All very friendly and welcoming to other animals. I have time to take care of and spend time with your pet. I have a small fenced in yard for smaller dogs. I also have a very friendly small jack russle named Indy to keep your pet company. We go on walks and have lots of play time and rest time. I have children who are also pet lovers.

“Cheyanne was great. Our dog has separation anxiety and we needed a sitter last minute for Christmas. She stayed with Leaf all day and provided us with updates to ease our minds. When we returned Leaf was happy. Would definitely have Cheyanne care for Leaf again!”

About: My name is Alijah! I have experience with dogs, cats, horses, goats, some small animals and other large farm animals. I love spending time with older babies! I have experience with giving time allotted medicine and shots if needed. I feel comfortable with pets of all sizes from pea sized to gentle giants. I’m a full time worker yet I spend all my time with animals. I am available everyday. Morning,lunch and afternoons. I spend roughly 2 hours in evenings taking care of my horses. In my clients home I would like the dogs to feel as comfortable as they can until they are cozy with me! I do prefer when in my care dogs specifically are in a fenced in back yard or leashed at all time when I handle them outside of the house.

“A+++ Harley was knowledgeable and mature, caring and trustworthy! We could not have found anyone more qualified to pet/house sit for us. There was not one moment of concern while we were away as to whether or not our pets were in good hands. She communicated every day with photos and messages showing how happy they were. We couldn't be more grateful for her service, her time and her attention shown in loving our dogs as if they were her own.”

About: At Central Canines, pet care is more than just a service — it’s a personalized experience built on trust, structure, and love. With years of hands-on experience in both dog training and boarding, I go beyond basic care to truly understand each dog’s personality, needs, and behavior. Whether your pup is staying overnight or working on new skills, they’ll receive consistent structure, positive reinforcement, and one-on-one attention in a safe, home-style environment — not a crowded kennel. What sets me apart is the calm, confident energy I bring to every interaction, my commitment to helping dogs thrive both mentally and physically, and the genuine relationships I build with each pet and their family. Here, every dog is treated like one of my own. Pet care is my full-time lifestyle — not just part of my day. As a professional dog trainer and full-time pet care provider, my entire routine is centered around the well-being, structure, and happiness of the dogs in my care. From early morning potty breaks and structured play sessions to training lessons and calm evening wind-downs, every part of my day is designed to meet each pup’s individual needs. This isn’t a side job or a hobby — it’s my passion and profession. Your dog becomes part of my daily rhythm, and I treat them with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. In my home, pets are cared for with a structured, safe, and loving routine that supports both their physical and mental well-being. Dogs enjoy plenty of outdoor time in a secure yard, personalized enrichment activities, and rest periods throughout the day to prevent overstimulation. For those enrolled in training, I incorporate clear, consistent guidance into daily routines to reinforce good behavior in real-life situations. Each pup gets one-on-one attention, daily check-ins, and plenty of love — all while maintaining a calm, balanced environment. Cleanliness, safety, and respect for each dog’s individual needs are always my top priorities.

About: I am a professional trainer who has been around dogs my whole life. I currently own 2 Rottweilers, Husky and a Shepard. I truly enjoy working with animals. We have a set schedule atbour home with our pets. We eat meals 2x a day and go outside as needed throughout day and night. Caring for pets in my home would be added to our schedule or we can adjust depending on the pet. We have crates if needed for pets. In a clients home I would follow the schedule that they lay out to ensure not to disrupt their schedule.

About: What sets me apart from everyone else is that I’m calm and patient with every animal, and I’m very for keep my own animals fit and health, I will do the same for your I currently work from home and have more time to do drop ins and boardings. I don’t mind doing work from home from your home as well, just need to know in advance I am currently in the process of getting a fence put in, so I have plenty of space for your pup to run around in. I also have plenty of toys, due to having a German Sheppard mix

About: I will be graduating with a Masters in Biology. I know a lot about animals and can handle whatever breed you throw at me, big or small. I have two fur babies of my own and would love to care for yours. I love being outdoors and active so your pet will have lots of exercise. I am a full-time student online. Your pet wouldn’t have to be in a cage at all because I am home all day! Willing to pick up and drop off. I am clean and detail-oriented. I have a personal vehicle to drive to and from your home. I can haul your pets to the local dog park, vet, or somewhere to go exploring!

About: I've been passionate about caring for dogs since I was a child. Over the years, I've had the pleasure of walking and looking after many dogs for friends and neighbors. My experience spans a variety of breeds with different needs and behaviors. My friendly, confident, and kind approach ensures that every dog feels safe and loved in my care. Whether it's my own dog, KoKo, or a new furry friend, I am dedicated to providing the best care possible and ensuring that your furbaby enjoys a luxurious experience filled with love, attention, and fun activities. As a full-time student who spends most of my time at home, incorporating pet care into my daily routine is a breeze! Whether I'm taking a break from studying to enjoy a fun play session, going for a refreshing walk, or simply cuddling up with a furry friend while reading, pets seamlessly fit into my schedule. I love having the companionship and energy that pets bring, making each day more joyful and balanced. Caring for dogs is a passion of mine, and I ensure they receive all the love and attention they need. Each dog's routine is tailored to their individual needs and may include regular feeding, playtime, and exercise. I take dogs on invigorating walks and to the local dog park for socialization and fun. With my small breed dog, KoKo, as a companion, your dog will always have a playmate and a friend. Whether it's engaging in stimulating activities or enjoying some relaxing downtime, I make sure every dog feels at home and well-cared for.
