About: I am a currently enrolled in school to become a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine and therefore have dedicated my life to providing care to animals of all species! I have multiple years of experience working with dogs, cats, horses, as well as exotics including fish, reptiles, birds, and pocket pets. I am also trained in and enjoy providing grooming services such as bathing, nail trimming and filing, and ear cleaning.

I am also very detail-oriented and will ensure to maintain your pets usual routine to a tee. When your pets are in my care, know that I will truly love them like they are my own!

“Kamryn is wonderful! Highly recommend. She was prompt, polite and attentive. She provided daily updates, pictures while we were away. She kept all 4 litter boxes clean and food bowls fresh. My two senior cats are not always easy to please, but she won them over! Will be booking her again for our next trip!”

“Finnian was available last min and responded super quickly which is always great in a pinch but not expected. He was open to all my directions for my new puppy and comfortable dropping in without meeting her and not knowing what to expect. Took adorable pics and sent great notes! I do the job full time and so far I’m happy I found him :)”

Working from home affords me the flexibility and availability for the level of care required to care for your pet.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for most of my life and currently have two dogs of my own. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and care for their pets while they’re away. I understand that every dog has a unique personality and routine, and I strive to make each pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved. As an active person who enjoys walking and being outdoors, I can provide energetic walks for dogs who need exercise while also giving gentle attention to senior dogs who prefer a slower pace. I’m dependable, communicative, and will treat your pets like they’re part of my own family. I know how important peace of mind is when leaving your pet with someone else, and I’ll provide updates and photos so you know they’re in great hands. I’m a stay-at-home mom of two school-aged children and am looking for flexible work that allows me to care for pets during school hours. My schedule is open on weekdays while my children are in school, and for certain walks or drop-in visits, my kids may accompany me when appropriate. I’m reliable, active, and love spending time outdoors with dogs of all sizes and energy levels. As a lifelong dog owner, I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. I currently have two friendly dogs of my own and treat every pet as if they were part of my family. I follow owners' instructions carefully, prioritize safety on walks and during visits, and provide regular updates with photos for peace of mind. My goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you're away.

About: I have over two years of professional experience working with dogs and have been a dog owner for more than 15 years. I believe in allowing dogs to approach at their own pace and building trust through patience and understanding. I have experience caring for puppies as well as dogs with behavioral challenges. I’m a college student with flexible availability. The only times I’m unavailable are Tuesdays before 1 PM and Thursdays. I live at home, so overnights at my home aren’t an option, but I’m happy to stay overnight at your home if needed. I am capable of handling multi-dog families. Due to my background, I'm used to seeing sibling sets of 2-3, despite never personally owning more than 2 dogs at 1 time

About: With over 11 years of professional pet care experience, caring for animals isn't just my job—it's my passion. Throughout my career, I've had the opportunity to work in a variety of roles within the animal care field, giving me a well-rounded understanding of pets and their individual needs. I've worked in several animal shelters in positions ranging from Animal Care Technician, Adoptions Counselor, Customer Service Representative, and even Shelter Manager. I've also worked at multiple doggy daycares, where I started as a Daycare Attendant in the playrooms and worked my way up to Assistant General Manager. In addition, I spent time working as a Veterinary Technician, which gave me valuable hands-on medical experience and strengthened my knowledge of animal health and care. I am also Fear-Free Certified! At home, my life revolves around my fur babies! I currently have six cats and four dogs (two of my dogs live with my mom). One of those pups is an 8-year-old Chiweenie with stranger danger, resource guarding, partial blindness, Cushing's disease, and diabetes, requiring daily insulin injections and consistent medical care. My other family dog is a sweet 10-year-old Basset Hound. Caring for pets with special medical or behavioral needs has given me firsthand experience, patience, and confidence in handling a wide variety of situations. My experience has taught me how to work with pets of all personalities and temperaments—from confident social butterflies to fearful or reactive animals. If your pet experiences stranger danger, I'll gladly schedule multiple meet-and-greets so we can build trust at your pet's pace. My goal is always to create a safe, low-stress, and positive experience for everyone involved. I'm experienced in administering medications, including insulin injections, oral medications, and other routine treatments. I understand how critical it is for pets to receive their medications on time and exactly as directed, and I take that responsibility very seriously. Whether your pet is young, senior, energetic, shy, or has special medical or behavioral needs, you can rest easy knowing they're in experienced, compassionate hands. I hope to hear from you and your fur baby (or babies) soon!🐾 Pet care is currently my full-time job, which means I have a very flexible schedule and can dedicate my time to giving your furry family members the care and attention they deserve. Every pet (and every pet parent!) has different needs, and I believe there's no one-size-fits-all approach to pet care. Whether your pet thrives on a strict routine, needs multiple potty breaks, requires medications at specific times, or simply enjoys extra cuddles and playtime, I'm happy to accommodate their individual needs. My goal is to make both you and your pet feel comfortable and confident while you're away. Please let me know what you're looking for in your pet's care, and together we'll create a plan that keeps your furry family member happy, safe, and loved while you're gone. I always treat the home and the fur babies as if it was my own. Everything must be treated with love and respect. Always respect the animals space when they want it as well.

About: I’ve had pets my entire life, and two years ago I worked with a dog-sitting company—a truly rewarding experience. I love being surrounded by these four-legged friends, and I have a natural ability to communicate with them. I am currently off for the summer, but starting in September, I will be mostly available after 4:00 p.m. on weekdays and throughout the weekends. In my home, I focus on creating a safe, fun, and structured environment for every pet. We’ve recently added a secure fence to our extra-large backyard so visiting pups now have a spacious, supervised play area to run, explore, and burn off energy. In addition, I make sure dogs stay active and engaged with daily walks around the neighborhood, tailored to their age and energy level. In a client’s home, I maintain their pet’s routine as closely as possible—feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and walks—so they feel comfortable and cared for in their familiar space. My goal is always to provide consistency, safety, and lots of loving attention, whether I’m hosting your pet or caring for them in your home.

About: My home was set up for an 80lb dog with a fenced in yard and areas around the house. Should be very comfortable for any dog. I’m very attentive to the pets, making sure their needs are met and that they are safe and sound. When I take on a job, my schedule is pretty cleared out for it since I’m a retired person. I can schedule my time around the care of your pet. I care for pets in my home by keeping an eye on them. Taking them out into the fenced yard and walking them twice a day. If they like to play fetch or tug I’ll do that with them too. I keep them fed, watered, exercised and rested.

“Maeghan was so wonderful with our pups Checkers and Ava! She arrived on time and provided top notch care during her visit. She communicated all aspects of the visit to us and kindly provided photos. Maeghan is professional and we felt very safe with our dogs in her care. Highly recommended!”

About: I have been around dogs for most of my life. My family got our first dog when I was two years old, a high energy pit bull mix who taught me how to keep up with active dogs and provide plenty of exercise and engagement. When I was twelve and then again when I was thirteen, we adopted a second and third dog both of which had much more relaxed personalities. Growing up with these two pups helped me learn how to care for dogs with different temperaments, energy levels, and needs. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have provided pet sitting services for family and friends on numerous occasions. My experience ranges from caring for dogs during extended family vacations to stopping by for walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship while owners are away for the day. Through these experiences, I have become comfortable working with dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who require extra patience and attention. I am experienced with basic puppy training, administering medications, maintaining routines, and adapting care to each dog's individual personality and needs. What sets me apart is that I genuinely love spending time with animals and treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether your dog wants a long walk, a game of fetch, lots of cuddles, or simply a calm companion, I am committed to making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you are away. I currently work three nights per week as an EMT, which gives me a flexible daytime schedule and allows me to be available throughout most mornings, afternoons, and early evenings. Whether your dog needs a quick potty break, a walk, playtime, or extended companionship while you are away, I am happy to accommodate their needs. I have a fully fenced yard and two friendly, well socialized dogs who are accustomed to being around other animals. My home is stocked with toys, treats, fresh water, and comfortable spaces for dogs to relax and feel at home. I always follow owners' instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications, exercise, crate use, and any other aspects of their pet's routine to help ensure a safe and stress free experience. For drop in visits and care in a client's home, I treat both your pet and your home with the utmost respect. I am happy to clean up after pets, refresh water bowls, provide meals, administer medications if needed, and spend quality time playing, walking, or simply keeping them company. I understand how important consistency can be for dogs, so I do my best to maintain their normal routine while you are away.

About: I’ve had my own dog since I’m 7, he’s 12 now and I’ve cared for him ever since he was a puppy. We’ve grown up together, and he has taught me how to love all animals unconditionally. All pets deserve a safe space where they feel loved, at their own pace. I’ve done pet sitting for friends and neighbors over the past few years as well. I have a very flexible schedule right now, and am able to move around plans and obligations for potential clients. I am happy to see your pets as much as needed, and as long as you would like. In your home, I would appreciate specific instructions on how your dog operates on a day to day basis: Do they like to eat at specific times? What’s their favorite way to play? Is there anything specific I can do to make them more comfortable? Anything you could think of that would be helpful for me to know, no matter how strange it could be (some pets have some interesting demands and I completely understand that)

About: My husband and I both grew up with several dogs in our homes as children, and while we have no children of our own, our fur baby is a ten month old Shih-Poo, whose name is "Reesie". Reesie is the sweetest boy, who loves to cuddle, play, and run outside in the dog park! I'm currently a stay at home fur mom, and typically take our pup for walks every few hours! My husband and I take him to a park several nights a week after dinner to allow him time to exercise and play! There is a fenced in dog park here at our apartment complex, and we are willing to adapt to your pup's needs if a crate is necessary.
