About: I have over a decade of experience caring for dogs, starting with my own two spoiled pups—a sweet 10-year-old Pitbull and a high-energy 3-year-old Weimaraner. I’m comfortable with all breeds, sizes, and personalities, and I know how important it is to keep pets safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Whether your pet needs playtime, snuggles, or a calm, steady routine, they’ll be treated like one of my own. As a teacher, I’m home full-time during the summer and have a flexible schedule during the school year. I’m available before and after school, on weekends, and most holidays. Whether it’s drop-ins, walks, or overnight care, I’ll work around your pet’s routine to keep them happy, safe, and stress-free. I’m unable to house pets in my own home, but I’m happy to care for them in their own environment where they feel most comfortable. I provide personalized care based on your pet’s routine—regular feeding, exercise, playtime, and any special attention they may need. I also have a friendly 3-year-old Weimaraner who loves meeting new friends and can tag along for visits if your pet enjoys company. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priority!

About: I am a runner in my spare time and love dogs. Thought this would be a good way to get a little extra practice in. I walk/run with my Aussie all the time! My Aussie walks or runs with me most days. I also have had 4 other dogs in my life. All different breeds and sizes. I love being outside and having an excuse to exercise in a fun way. My current dog Heidi is leash trained and off leash trained. I take it very seriously and have put her through training as I have done with all of my dogs. The same skills will be used when your dogs are in my care.

About: I’ve taken care of 10 dogs most of my life. My parents love animals so i’ve always been around different kind of animals. They currently have 3 bunnies, guinea pigs, 9 cocker spaniels and 1 lab, and 2 cats. When they are away i am the main person to take care of them since they also foster and i’m the oldest kid in the family. I really know how to care for animals. I had a senior dog , izzy who had cancer and i did my best to make her feel cared for through the time she had left. I really take my time caring for dogs with special needs and who are older, they need fun and love. My favorite thing is to play ball with them and i have lots of toys that they can choose from to play with 😁 I’m 18 i’m currently working part time but i make my own shedule as needed, so i have a bunch of time to play with your pups! My girlfriend also is living with me and she loves animals. she’s had dogs, cats, fish, horses, and other animals that she’s taken care of. i am available monday-sunday for most of the day. if you have an emergency or just going on a vacation i will always be able to care for your pups. I have a fenced yard, i have a cocker spaniel and a border collie mix. They are very sweet and love having a new friend to play with.

Im currently working full time, but im able to do walks or visits after work or full time on the weekends! I'm also in college, but I do it all online, so I have lots of free time on the weekends. I love going the extra mile for every dog as if they’re my own! I love tiring out dogs and ensuring they have the most fun possible because they definitely deserve it!

About: Hi, I’m a dedicated pet sitter with hands-on experience caring for a full house—two dogs, five indoor cats, 18 outdoor cats, and two guinea pigs! I truly understand the love, patience, and attention pets need, because I live it every day. Whether you’ve got a playful pup, a picky kitty, or a small critter needing gentle care, I’ll treat your pet like one of my own—with reliability, kindness, and plenty of cuddles! As a part time employee, it allows plenty of time to care for your pets needs and wants. I only work about 5 hour shifts so I have plenty of time around that to be available. I am a happy and energized person and I can get along with all types of animals, young or old, calm or hyper. And I am a very patient person, acquiring that skill as I’ve grown up with dogs and cats and a whole barnyard of animals my whole life.

Amazing! Can’t recommend her enough, went on a cruise for 3 weeks and she was amazing at looking after my bernedoodle! She gave him all his medication, and food on time and took him out to potty frequently, also updated us almost everyday about how he was doing and gave us that peace of mind.

Ava is such a great service provider for my dog and cats. She is responsible, knowledgeable and very loving. She goes the extra mile and my animals get visibly excited when she comes over. I'm so glad she's been available the several times I needed a pet sitter. My animals are part of my family, so I am very picky with who I trust... I would recommend Ava without doubt.

Isaac is my go-to dog sitter for my fur baby! He is always willing to come on short notice and engages with our energetic pup the whole time. He keeps him active and moving while also ensuring his safety. He treats him like his own. He monitors his medication and food thoroughly making us feel even more comfortable leaving. Isaac has been watching our pup for over a year, and I would not use anyone else but him! Our fur baby loves him and so do we!
