“Elyse is amazing! I’ve already booked my next vacation and talked about another one after that with her so my fur babies can be taken care of and I know they are in the best hands. She is such an animal lover and treats my fur babies like her own. I never had to worry about them while I was on vacation. She communicates, sends photos and asks questions if she doesn’t know.

Thank you so much Elyse! It’s so great to be able to go on vacation and know your fur babies and home are being taken care of! We look forward to your next time!”

About: I’ve been helping my parents raise dogs since I was around 10 years old, our first dog being a collie we rescued as she wasn’t being treated well with her initial owners. We took her in and got her cleaned up, took care of the fleas she had, found her a good diet, and gave her lots of love and attention through it all. We took her on camping trips, out on the water to go fishing, out on walks and to get pup cups at the ice cream shop, her favorite place being my granny’s house. Alongside her, we raised three more dogs when they were puppies, each one two years apart. 2 of them are Australian shepherds, and one is a husky, all girls and grew to form their own little pack, respecting each other’s place and playing happily in a big fenced in back yard. We supported our collie till her last breath as she was elderly, and even as she was so old, she always had her usual, laid back and quirky personality. Even now, I continue to help my parents take care of our dogs, as they’re not just pets, they’re our family, our fur babies, even in they’re old stages of life, they’ll always be our little babies in our hearts. So rest assured, your fur baby will be 110% safe and cared for with me, maybe even a bit spoiled! I’m currently looking into part time or less demanding full time jobs, and I’ll be actively looking until I land one, until then, I should be mostly free, and I’ll definitely keep my schedule updated as life moves forward and changes. As of now, I have appointments on Wednesday, I try to keep them consistent each week, but they’re subject to change due to scheduling. With specific instructions written on paper, I have no issues accommodating to your pet’s needs in your home! I’m respectful during visits in others homes, treating them as my own and keeping spaces clean and tidy. With proper cleaning tools, I can clean up accidents on hard surfaces or rugs, I may need a demonstration on how to use a specific cleaning machine or vacuum depending on how complicated it is. I’m not allergic to any animal, or any breed, so pet hair doesn’t bother me! If need be, I am able to administer oral medications with proper instruction and demonstration. On walks I make sure to keep dogs close to me and away from the road, I carry doggy bags, and on hot days, I’ll carry a little folded up bowl that I can poor water in, so your baby stays hydrated!

About: I have my own cat, plus 2 dogs at home, and the 2 other cats we have! I am a mom, I have a one year old! Dog/cat sitting is my only job at the moment so I’m very free and open! My other household members take care of my cat while I’m gone! For dog/sitting I will provide 1-3 walks a day depending on your dogs normal schedule, we personally do 2 measured out portions for our dogs, I’m also willing to do bathing, teeth brushing, and medication administration!

About: I have experience caring for dogs, cats, bunnies, horses, fish, chickens, and ducks. I have taken a veterinary science class in high school and I plan to become a veterinarian in the future. Currently, I do not have a job, so I am able to play with your pets all day on the days I’m available. I will be heading off to college at the end of August this year, but will be back during breaks. I will care for your pets kindly, but firmly if need be. If you have a high energy pup, I will do my very best to keep up the energy to play with it. I will make sure your pet does not get into trouble.

About: I have been taking care of animals, but specifically dogs my entire life. I currently have a farm where we have 4 dogs of our own I have owned dogs all my life! Golden retrievers, newfoundlands, aussies, and pit bulls is what I know best they are are treated like my family and I can’t wait to watch your fur babies I have two fur babies that live in my home we also have an extra large dog kennel set up in the basement for dogs that would like the kennel.

About: I have years of experience caring for animals, from dogs to cats & rabbits. Pet care is an area that I am thrilled to be now pursuing on a higher level. Animals have captured my heart for years, and this is something that will not change now or in the future. I am someone who pays attention to details and always has animal welfare at the forefront of my mind. I do not doubt that I am someone to be trusted with your animals. I look forward to potentially working with you! I am fortunate in that I have a fairly flexible routine currently. This allows for pet care jobs and responsibilities to be easier to take on. I am happy to watch your animals in your home if all checks out. What might it look like? I could stop by once or twice a day (‘depending) to make sure your pet(s) are well and everything is running smoothly. For example, I just wrapped up pet sitting for someone I know in the area & she gave me a spare key for her place. This is just what made sense & what she was comfortable with at the time. She left some realistic instructions for me & all went well. It was a win-win situation. You just need help with dog walking? I am happy to consider that as well!

About: I’ve been taking care of people’s pets since I was young. I am a genuine animal lover, so I will ensure the best care is provided for your pets! I work full time Monday-Friday. Those are 8 hour days so I can be fully available to your pets after and before work. My work schedule is set and I can let you the exact schedule ahead of time! I can easily crate your pets, walk your pets, and work with your pets on new skills. I have experience watching both large and small dogs and I’m comfortable with both.

“Uyen is amazing with Guinness and Murphy! They are so excited to see her. She definitely goes the extra mile to make sure they are well taken care of. We will be using Uyen again to watch our dogs.”


“Our Basset hound, Posie, took an immediate liking to Cristina. We are so happy with Cristina's services. We left her for four whole days (3 nights) with Cristina. Not only did she take excellent care of our baby, she contacted us when some critters caused trouble in our garage and resolved the problems. We are extremely happy with her services. She left our house clean, our dog very happy, and was pleasant and helpful. We were especially glad that she stayed in touch with us by phone and text during our absence. She is great!”


About: I’ve taken care of neighbors, family, and friends pets for 3 years now! I’ve been relied on to feed, play, and take care of both pet and their home. I am currently in college and am able to be with pets for majority of the day to play and make sure they are well taken care of. In my clients home I keep thing neat and organized and wash all bedding before they get home, in addition I make sure their pet is well cared for and comfortable i. their own home!

About: Hi I’m Alyssa I’m an animal lover and have grew up around them most of my life. I’ve raised my 3 dogs since they were puppies and have experience in taking care of senior dogs. Long walks, playtime or just relaxing I can adjust to your dogs needs. I’m a full time online student so I have a lot of flexibility to work with your fur babies and accommodate to you and your pups schedule I do my best to stick to your pet’s usual routine and make sure they have lots of love while you’re away. I can send daily updates with pictures so you can be sure your pup is being well taken care of

About: I have fostered over 20 dogs with a local rescue organization and loved every second of it. We have hosted tiny puppies as young as 6 weeks, to dogs with special needs, and seniors just needing a place to relax. As a family, we are very experienced with many breeds, personalities, and temperaments. We cry when each one gets adopted because we truly love them all so much. I work from home so aside from the occasional errand, I am here to give constant love and attention. I go for walks every morning and every evening after work. We have a big unfenced yard out in the country. My child knows to be very careful with all doors when opening. My toddler is as experienced as a toddler can be in dealing with new dogs and being respectful of space. This is not a house where ears or tails will be pulled. We will love on them as much or as little as they like (we promise to only have slight hurt feelings if they want nothing to do with us)
