About: I was raised in a farm family and within my father's exotic bird business. I've been taking care of a variety of types of animals since I was a child. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to care for their pets. I have experience working as a dog daycare and kennel employee. I have two dogs of my own and enjoy being an animal caregiver. I have experience rendering first aid. I know what it is to want peace of mind while away from my own pets and I enjoy providing that for other pet people. I love that working with animals teaches me about what it is to be human. I have a flexible schedule to focus on caring for your animal family member. I have plenty of time and attention to devote to spending time with pets. I will treat your service with the utmost professionalism and render the same care and concern to your pets I give to looking after the needs of my own.

“Angeline and Dave were awesome with Zoey while I was out of town for work. Angeline made sure to send me pictures every day and it was really cool to see my pup getting along with their dog Benson. They were even thoughtful enough to put a little goodie bag with a note into her bag of stuff that I found when I got home! I’m already booked to have Zoey hang out with them again this week and I’m excited to use them again for my work trips in the future!”

Laurie, her sweet dog Daphne & daughter were very warm and welcoming. Laurie provided many check-ins and promptly answered all of the questions I had. I would definitely Laurie to anyone looking for a sitter and plan to use Laurie again in the future!”
“Truly wonderful! Valerie is so kind. She watched our sensitive adopted dog over Thanksgiving and made him feel right at home with snuggles and play in the big backyard. I was nervous to leave our dog with someone new to him, but he felt right at home with Valerie!! She sent pictures and video updates, which was so sweet. We absolutely will be using Valerie again in the near future! ❤️”
“I’m so grateful to have found Kelly! She took such great care of my dogs while I was away. They came home happy, relaxed, and even wearing the cutest bandannas! She’s incredibly friendly and thoughtful—what really stood out was how she kept me updated with lots of pictures and messages without me even having to ask. That kind of communication gave me so much peace of mind. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!”

She is a good person and was very good with our girl and treated her as one of her own. Thank you Shay for helping us have a worry free vacation!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Dana. We were hesitant to leave our new puppy with anyone, but based off her reviews we felt reasonably comfortable with her. After meeting her, and her dogs, the worries dissolved. She genuinely cares and enjoys her time with the animals. She kept in contact and sent us several updates and photos of Mila. It really helped alleviate the anxiety over leaving her with someone new. We had an overall great experience with Dana and definitely recommend her to anyone. We will be booking her again when we need to board her.”
