“Marie has been invaluable to the growth and happiness of my puppy black lab! She consistently goes above and beyond with him, and has always been very consistent and flexible when I need to change our scheduled times/dates. She always leaves my dog satisfied, and I am very grateful that I found her for my baby! I highly, highly recommend her dog walking services. She takes him on various routes in my neighborhood to explore and she always makes sure that he has the exercise he needs, even in the rain!”

About: I’m a lifelong animal owner and “farm girl” with experience owning and working with dogs, cats, small animals, livestock, and even exotics.

During the school year I am limited to before and after school hours. I care for your animal as if they were my own! I am attentive to your animal’s needs and will make sure to do things “your way” in order to keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible!

About: Years of pet ownership; dogs, cats, fish, lizards, hedgehogs, guinea pigs and chickens. I have owned shelter dogs with the breeds of Blue heeler, terriers and chihuahuas. I also have experience with Laboradors and Scottish terriers. Many of these pets are high energy pets. They love to run and the lab we watch lives to catch balls( lacrosse stick comes in handy) I know how hard it is the leave them behind without a trustworthy sitter, sometimes forgoing a trip because of such concerns. I will care for your pet as I do my own. I am a school counselor so I have summmer availability as well as many holidays. I can provide you with the proof of my walking your dog with my walking app.

About: I’ve had different types of dogs since I was young. I’ve trained dogs for all types of reasons. I’m a lover of all pups and can handle your dogs needs. I own a large property specifically for the environment, which is perfect for dogs. I look forward to meeting your doggie and returning a happy pup back to you. Please message for any details. I’m available on weekends and weeknights. I work full time M-F, so weekends are primarily open. While I can do many activities during the work week, I am gone about 8 hours for my primary job. Weeknights and weekends are available. I have a large property with plenty of room to roam. Chickens in the yard (in coop). I have a 6 year old pup of my own that is very docile, loves other animals and gets along with them easily, and is my number two. I don’t have a fence because my dog is perimeter trained. However, I can perimeter train your dog too or walk them on a leash if that is preferred. I plan to add a fence soon and will update this once I do.

About: I have cared for many animals over the past 16 years for friends and family & also have two dogs of my own who are my world. I am currently a stay at home mom with full time availability. I am able to crate your animals at night if needed for sleep and give frequent bathroom breaks throughout the day. I have a fenced in yard and two playful doggies to give your fur baby company while they have a vacation in our home. I will care for your pets as I do my own & treat them like family while they are here!

About: My husband, William, and I have 7 years experience with raising high drive working dogs starting as young as 8 weeks. We feel well equipped to provide the highest level care for your furry loved one while maintaining any training goals. Your dogs comfort and safety is our highest priority so we will try to match your dogs schedule to the best of our ability. I am currently offering care on my days off allowing me the opportunity to have a flexible schedule to fit your dog’s needs during both week days and weekends. I have a 6 foot fenced in yard for your dog to have some safe off leash playtime. Your dog will be home with our residential dog, Duke, during their visit. Duke is an intact male Labrador, so if your dog is in heat, we will keep them separate. All dog gear (toys, water bowls, etc) will be thoroughly cleaned between dog visits to prioritize the health and safety of your dog.

Seth G.
“I have known Seth for nearly 6 years and in that time I have seen what an incredible pet caregiver he is. He adores and takes such good care of his own dog, Ziggy (the sweetest boxer in the world), as well as a flock of lovely chickens who also adore him to the point of wanting to come into his house! I’ve seen him interact with and take amazing care of other animals too, including cats and ducks. Seth has such a warm personality and you can tell he truly cares for and loves animals. I would absolutely trust him to care for my own pets. He’ll go above and beyond to make sure your pet is cared for, not only covering the basics (feeding, watering, bathroom time, etc.), but also providing love, affection, and play. I highly recommend Seth to anyone looking for a pet sitter.”
