“Jenevieve is a literal angel. She was just supposed to do a drop-in to see Deku and let him out. My A/C went out the night before the scheduled visit and it’s was 100 degrees outside. Jenevieve took him to her home to watch him for the day while I was at work. If it wasn’t for her, Deku would definitely not be okay! She saved the day and saved me from so much stress during my first day at my new job! A literal lifesaver!”
“Caitlyn is AMAZING. She truly loves and cares for your dog, whether it’s her first visit or her hundredth. She provides the upmost care, and never rushes. She shares time with your dog because she wants to, not because she has to. She has fantastic communication and truly goes above and beyond every time. I will continue to book with Caitlyn for as long as she lets me!!”
About: I have taken care of animals since I was 8. I have taken care of bunnies, ferrets, hamsters, cats and dogs! I am a proud dog owner myself. I am very comfortable with walking, feeding, and bathing pets. I am passionate and willing to learn all different breed types and what each specific furbaby needs! I am currently a elementary teacher, so I am looking for a way to continue my passion and love for animals this summer through this service. I am interested in doing part-time work. I care for pets based on the individual pet needs. Making sure that the breed is taken into account, especially as it gets hotter outside. I have a doggy pool and hose system for dogs to play in the background. A very quiet neighborhood for walking. I enjoy playing with dogs inside and outside the home to burn off some energy and making sure that they are getting groomed if thats a requirement. I am comfortable with taking multiple dogs on walks.
“Ash has been amazing, from beginning to end!! Great communication, and my pup must love her, because he is way better behaved for her than us, LOL!! Highly recommend!!”
“Angie did a great job taking care of my two kitties they were both relaxed, healthy, and happy when I returned. I highly recommend her... she spent a good amount of time each visit not only feeding and cleaning up but also holding and petting them. I am booking her again for my next trip this coming February.”
“Absolutely wonderful. Never had to worry about what my girls were up to to or how they were doing. Rachael kept me well informed while I was out of town. Definitely, I will schedule again.”
“Karla was wonderful! She left great feedback each day coupled with photos of both our cats. She also went above and beyond and did extra things that we asked about (eg, heat/ac) and swept the main living area to clean up litter and cat hair. Would recommend Karla in a heartbeat!”
“MacKenzie was so sweet with our dog! She did a great job of communicating throughout the process. I felt very reassured that our dog was in good hands while we were away.”

“It was so nice to be able to take a day trip and come home in the evening to a calm, happy dog. Normally she’s anxious without me but Kelli took her on a nice walk and then sat on the deck with her which is my senior dog’s favorite activity. Uli was so relaxed when I got home that I know she had been well cared for. Thank you Kelli!”
About: I have had pets all of my life! I have helped care for friends animals, my family’s animals, and I have a love for pets! I currently have a mini golden doodle and I’d love to get to spend more time with other peoples pets, as it makes me happy. I work full time so evening and weekends are best for me! During summer I have full time availability because I’m a teacher off in the summers. I am comfortable following whatever expectations you have for me in your home while caring for your pet(s). I am open for communication to help meet your expectations.
About: Growing up with Great Danes taught me many important lessons. I have taken care of dogs with disabilities and medications, along with young puppies. Loving animals means treating them like they are your own. Currently, I am full time at my position for a remote company which allows a generally open schedule. I do have some travel days but they are limited. I prefer for pets to stay in their home, making them feel comfortable and safe. Along with the pets, I want you to have someone reliable and responsible helping out.
About: Hi, I’m Ireland! Growing up with dogs, I have years of firsthand experience in caring for them, from feeding and grooming to basic training, and being CPR & FIRST AID Certified making me the perfect fit for any medical emergency that might occur. My passion for animals extends beyond my own pets—I am dedicated to ensuring every animal in my care feels safe, loved, and well-attended to. I prioritize meeting each pet’s needs, including feeding, providing fresh water, regular potty breaks, and plenty of playtime. I understand that every pet has its own personality and requirements, and I take the time to ensure they are comfortable, happy, and treated with kindness. I’m majoring in Animal Ecology and this summer I have online classes so I will be more available than I am in fall, winter, and spring. On weekends, I travel home to care for my family’s animals, further reinforcing my commitment to animal welfare. I love to make sure that your pet feels at home even when away from home, I can mimic your daily schedule as best as possible and provide as many or as little updates as you wish! Whether it's every other day or every hour, I'll make it happen. There's no smoking or any sort of paraphernalia allowed in my home, as my family has a history of health issues.
About: I have lots of experience working with dogs with Thyroid disorders, joint problems, hip problems, diabetes, and special diets. I'm very flexible. All you have to do is ask and we'll see. I've had Chocolate Labs, Chesapeake Bay Retrievers, Poodles, Terriers, and Shih Tzus. I love animals especially puppies and dogs. I am also willing to watch your cats if you also have them. I wanted to be a veterinarian or veterinary assistant but I didn't quite have the grades for it so that's why I decided to become a dog sitter, a dog walker, pet care taker, dog lover, and pet lover. I will take the best care of your pet and love it like my very own. Hope to hear from you soon. I'm available for house sitting on weekends and some week nights just ask me. Availability for pet care all week depending on the hours needed. I always accompany pets when they are outside even in a fenced in yard. I take short or long walks depending on what is requested.
About: I’ve loved and owned dogs since I was a small child. My first pet as an adult was a cat. Since then, we have adopted and loved a previous military trained explosives German Shepherd, a German Shepherd/Belgian Malinois mix (currently own), and also the partial owner of (with my ex-spouse) a police K9 Belgian Malinois. The K9 was brought home at 8 weeks and trained in-house (both at home and at work, but trained by my ex-husband). I love all dogs- big and small. I currently work full time, but only work in the office 2 days/week, which makes me have a lot of flexibility to help out during the week and during the day time. My pets have always been considered my children. I am comfortable with leashing and controlling dogs in a variety of situations. I am situationally aware and avoid interacting with other dogs while walking, as I know those are unpredictable situations.
