“Kenny has been a true asset to the caring of our puppy Margie. We work in the city and needed someone to come by and walk her during the day. Kenny came for a meet and greet and Margie immediately warmed up to Kenny. He cares for Margie like she is his own and it is greatly appreciated!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my whole life, and caring for animals has always come naturally to me. From playful puppies to senior pets, I’ve experienced it all and love the unique personality each animal brings. Whether it’s daily walks, or quiet companionship, I’m here to make your pet feel safe, loved, and happy while you're away. As a senior in college home for the summer I have a super flexible schedule as well! Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine—I have a very flexible schedule and am available most days and times, except for Tuesday nights. Whether it’s morning walks, midday visits, or evening check-ins, I can adjust to meet your pet’s needs. I love incorporating pet care into my day—it’s the best part of my routine! I ensure your pet stays comfortable in their familiar environment. I follow your instructions carefully—whether it’s feeding, walking, medication, or just giving them some love and attention. I treat every home with the utmost respect, keeping things clean, secure, and just the way I found them. I also make sure to keep an eye out for anything unusual in your pet’s behavior or environment and will always keep you updated. Your pet’s safety and your peace of mind are my top priorities. I always have my phone on me to ensure communication is top priority as well.

“Angela is an absolute angel. Rubee adores her. She was very responsive, and kept us up to date with Rubee and even shared pictures of her running on the beach.

We highly recommend her”

About: Hello! Welcome, my name is Ariana and I have been an animal lover since birth. Growing up my family had everything from cats to chameleons, and Animal Planet was almost always on. I am high energy; think the human version of a golden-doodle meets black cat. I love long walks but also love a good cuddle session, and have had success bringing the playful side out of even the shyest kitty. When I am home in NY I regularly foster kittens. I am available full time as I finish my final semester of school online (yay). I will head to Wyoming May 1st to return to my awesome summer job where i am surrounded by animals big and small, tame and wild🐴 I love spending time figuring out ways to engage and enrich. One of my favorite activities with my foster kittens was to utilize food puzzles to get them to think on their paws. This also helped slow down their eating, less throw up is always a plus.
About: I’ve taken care of family, friends and neighbors pets. I have cared and still care for family pets in my home. I’ve have been a dog walker and a daily check in sitter for friends and neighbors pets. Feeding breakfast/dinner, playing during the day and cuddle time before I get them to bed. I have my own small business in my home and make my own hours so I have plenty of time for walks and playtime with your family companions. I can easily provide playtime in your home or crating if you prefer after our walks. I can also provide fresh water and replenish their food bowls if needed.Administer oral medicine.
About: I've had cats for 20 years. Cat mom to my 5 year old cat, Kona and am a dog aunt to two adorable energetic pups.

I have a human toddler who also has a lot of energy I enjoy playing with and chasing after. I work from home and have a flexible job so it's easy enough for me to pop in and take breaks during the week. I also have time in the mornings and evenings before and after work. I have a dog and cat-friendly home. A gate for my human toddler also doubles as a doggy gate. My cat Kona is very friendly and not aggressive to other animals.
