About: Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember, and I’ve spent years around pups of every size, breed, and personality. I’m comfortable with dogs who are reactive or who love to pull on the leash, and I stay calm, patient, and confident on walks. I’ve cared for friends’ and family members’ dogs for many years, whether that means staying with them while their people travel or stopping by for walks, meals, and some extra love. I know how hard it can be to leave your pup when you’re away, and my goal is to put your mind at ease so you can actually enjoy your time without worrying about how they’re doing. I’m always happy to send photos, videos, or updates whenever you want them. I’m reliable, attentive, and I’ll always put your dog first. I want your pup to feel safe, happy, and genuinely cared for every moment they’re with me. I work fully remote, which means I’m able to hang out with your pup all day and night while you’re away. I’m around for playtime, cuddles, walks, and anything else they need throughout the day. I’m also super flexible with potty breaks and feeding times, so your dog can stay on their normal routine and feel as comfortable as possible. My goal is to make their days feel familiar and happy while giving you total peace of mind. Since I’ll be caring for your pets in your home, I always follow your preferences and routines to keep things feeling familiar and safe for your pup. I’m respectful of whatever rules you have in place, whether that means keeping them off the furniture, crating during certain times, or sticking to specific boundaries. I’m comfortable hanging out with your dog in the living room while I work on my laptop, giving them company and a calm presence throughout the day. If your pup prefers more space or quiet time, I’m just as happy to give them that too. I’m flexible and attentive to what each dog needs, and I do my best to maintain the environment and routine that helps them feel secure and at home. My goal is to make sure your dog feels safe, relaxed, and understood while you’re away, and to make the experience smooth and stress‑free for everyone.
“John did a great job taking care of Cat while I was out of town. He sent me lots of pictures and several videos to show that Cat was having a nice vacation from his human. John kept me aware of Cat's litter box usage, which was reassuring because Cat's health is up and down. Cat was well cared-for and John watered my outdoor plants too.”

About: I grew up with two big labs and now have two extremely pampered cats. I’m big enough to walk large dogs safely and love playing with animals! I’m currently working part time, so I’m available mornings and evenings from Sunday to Thursday. My own cats are fed twice a day with their litter boxes cleaned daily. I offer pet care in the owner's home. I can feed, walk, and play with your pets twice daily. I also clean litter boxes and pet messes when they’re playful happen. I send text updates with every visit with photos.
“Christina was so wonderful taking care of my kitties while I was out of town. She was responsive, communicative, and sent pictures that eased my mind. I will book with her in the future!”

“We know that our 2 chihuahuas were being so loved while we were gone! Karen sent us many photos during her visits and we felt confident while we were away from our dog babies. Karen is awesome!”

Maura was an exceptional sitter. She was always updating us on how our babies were doing and taking pictures of them as well. This was our first time leaving them alone and knowing she was watching them made everything better. I highly recommend her and we will be booking future visits when another trip comes up!

Always feel good about my older dog’s care with she’s with Brandi! She’s slowing down and has some behavior things and Brandi took care to check in about her walking needs and take her on a gentle walk at her own pace. Definitely trust Brandi for my pet care needs!

Madison was wonderful with our puppy, Sunny! You can tell she genuinely cares. Communication was great, and we loved all the photos and updates she sent. She made us feel completely at ease, and Sunny was happy and well cared for. We’d absolutely book with her again!

We can’t thank Melissa enough for taking care of our house while we were away. Our kitty Woody had everything he needed including the voice of Melissa reading to him aloud. My plants were watered, mail collected and everything else that you would want to happen while away. Bravo Melissa. Job well done.
