About: I have 35 years of hands on experience caring for dogs, cats, and other pets of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. Pet owners trust me to be reliable, punctual, and responsible. I am a 50 year old retired railroad worker with nothing but time. I am available all the time for your pet care needs and wants. Over the years I’ve had cats, dogs, rabbits, fish, and all kinds of animals that I’ve cared for. I stick to each pet's usual routine (feeding, potty breaks, walks, etc.) to help them feel at home. I send regular photos, videos, and messages so owners stay connected worry free.

“Nika was communicative and a pleasure to work with. She took jabba on the perfect amount of walks while we were on vacation so that he stayed active. I highly recommend her for the job!”


About: I've been around dogs and cats my whole life and became a proud rescue puppy owner one year ago to my cattle dog mix Jack! He is the light of my life and I will care for your animals like they’re my own. I have some extra time in the summer so I’d like to offer my services in between working as a Registered Nurse. Let me know any special requests and I’d be happy to accommodate! If you’re pup would like a play date or walk with mine while I drop in or walk yours I know my pup Jack would love that too!! My availability varies at the moment and is not always the same week to week, so check my calendar or send me a message if you have any more questions or specific requests! I can care for your pups in your own home by making sure they get out all their play energy and snuggles while they are with me!

About: As my spirit animal is a French Bulldog, I get along with other dogs due to my upbeat and affectionate personality that comes with never ending hilarious expressions. I can be seen snuggling up with one's fur animal or on the ground playing with them as if I am one of them. Nothing like chasing each other around the yard or house, having barking conversations or seeing who's stronger while playing tug-o-war. I truly enjoy the company of pets and I look forward to providing you peace of mind and the utmost in care for you and your four legged family members! If you have any questions, feel free to reach out. References available, meet n greets welcomed, spoiling your dog with love and treats is what I do best. Woof Woof I prioritize consistency with feeding times and taking my dog out for at least one walk every day. Oh and you cannot forget those daily interactive play sessions. While I strive for consistency, I also understand that flexibility is important, and I adjust the routine as needed based on my schedule, the weather and my dog's individual needs. I understand that pets have specific routines and needs, and I always prioritize understanding and adhering to those routines. I would work with you to learn about your pet's feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any specific medications or special requirements.

I always make sure to lock doors and windows when coming and going, keep fresh water out, give your pet(s) plenty of love and attention, keep your home clean and tidy, get them their daily exercise, make time for snuggles (if that’s something they enjoy❤️), and of course—keep them fed!

“Wow, Emily is truly incredible! She was so flexible with times and was able to fit my little pup in on such short notice! Ivy absolutely loved her and we got the best photos from their walks!

About: Hi! I’m Rikki (Holly) I grew up with dogs and cats my entire life. I have always loved animals, and had compassion for all of nature. I have a 12 yr old boy, and we have two big dogs (one German shephard and the other is a lab mix), and three cats, including a hairless cat with one eye! Potty breaks and Cleaning a litter box are second nature by now. My schedule is pretty open. Most of the work I do is remote. I can do weekends, and week days. As long as we plan efficiently. My dogs are friendly, and they stay outside most of the time. I have kennels I can use if needed. My house has plenty of space inside to hang out with me, or outside for fun and restroom breaks. The cats will just hide.

About: I have owned and taken care of dogs of all sizes since I was a child. I have direct experience with bully breeds, hounds, huskies, and beagles but have walked all kinds and sizes with local shelters. I own two 50 lb. dogs of my own and am used to loud and stubborn dogs. When I volunteer with shelters I usually volunteer for the biggest and/or ill behaved dogs because I know I can handle them and won’t be easily bullied! I taught my own dogs basic obedience with positive reinforcement training and am happy to reinforce any training you are working on with your pet. I am currently unemployed so I have lots of time to play and care for your pups! I have my own car so am able to travel to you anytime and take your pups on (pre-approved) adventures. I am super flexible and have both weekday and weekend availability. If I’m coming into your home I will make sure to leave everything as I found it and follow any rules you may have. My number one goal is to keep your pet healthy and happy but I also prioritize keeping your home neat and tidy. You’ll never have to worry about coming home to food all over the floor or pet messes left behind.

“Bailey loves when Mikki comes. He gets so excited. Mikki is wonderful. We needed her to walk him after my surgery and she was great. We will use Mikki whenever we need someone for Bailey.”

About: Though I myself have no dogs, I have looked after a friend's dogs on multiple occasions. As a cat owner, working with shyer dogs comes more naturally for me, as I'm used to using slow, non-threatening body language to communicate that I'm safe to be around. I also have experience caring for snakes. I always make sure their food is warm before feeding them. I'm currently on summer vacation and my pets are rarely alone, so I have plenty of time for pet care. I will soon start college, but will be a part-time student, so I'll still have lots of free time. From Monday through Thursday, I will have time for pet care in the morning and for Friday through Sunday, I'll have the whole day off. I'm always keeping a firm hold of the leash during walks to makes sure your dogs won't wander off and I carry waste bags with me to pick up after them. I also make a point to set reminders for myself ahead of time for feeding times.

Brian S.
“Brian is AMAZING! Book immediately! As someone who has a reactive dog, Brian was a breath of fresh air. He was reliable, patient, and caring. He listened well to all of our instructions and took extra time to make sure Malia was comfortable with him(she’s a hard sell so this means a lot)! He communicated well and sent lots of great pictures so we knew she was having a great time☺️ Would definitely recommend!”

“Lisa came through last minute, with short notice at a later than desired time of day. I so appreciate her walking my baby girl. Thank you!”


Sheana H.
“Sheana makes dog sitting a breeze for me and my two pups. Getting a hold of her is easy. She is punctual and attentively listens to every detail regarding the care we provide our home and pets. My dogs absolutely love her, they must sense that she authentically cares for them. She takes the time to learn about each pet, their personalities, behavior and is catering to them as a pack and individuals. Anytime she comes over to watch them they get extremely excited and joyful. I rarely see them react that way to any human other than her. She makes our experience comforting and effortless. I can trust my home and dogs will be safe under her care.”


Clarisse C.

“Happy to meet you today and my fur baby Charlie was happy as well! Lovely walk and already booking another - am sure my Charlie will be excited to go again! 🤗 Thanks again!”


Amelie M.
“Amelie is a wonder! If you’ve seen the movie “Amelie,” you’ll recognize right away that she is every bit her namesake! She is shy and kind and oh-so-gentle, and she loves to love! Animals are in the hands of the most compassionate caregiver with Amelie. She is attentive and willing to go to great lengths (and I mean lengths that most people wouldn’t go to for their own kids!) to make sure each animal gets the love living things deserve. You are also getting superb care for your home when you hire Amelie. She is unbelievably organized and tidy, and leaves the place more clean than she found it! Amelie is a treasure!”




Jocelyne G.
“Jocelyne did a great job of watching my 3 dogs. She had fast communication and photo updates that put my family at ease during our vacation.

She is completely reliable and trustworthy and always goes the extra mile to ensure our dog and cats are well taken care of. We’ve never had one issue. I would recommend her to anyone in need of assistance with their pets.”
