About: I recently had two rescue heeler mixes. We competed in agility, and did herding, barn hunt, and parkour. I loved to hike, walk, run, and be active with my dogs. Now that they're gone, I have an open space in my heart for time with yours. I walk and run or hike several days out of the week. I'd love to bring your well-behaved dog along for their enjoyment and my company! Because I live up a steep gravel driveway, I prefer to meet in town or at your place to take your dog for a walk or run. But if they need to come to my place for sitting, I have a fenced yard with some agility equipment. I also have a dog door, to let them have free access to my .5 acre fenced yard. I do have a cat, so if your dog comes to my place, it will have to get along with her.
“We were very pleased with Lacey's care of our boxer in her home. She picked her up from our home after our early morning flight, regularly sent pictures & care updates, and brought her home on the day we were flying home. She also asked for verification that we made it home and was more than willing to come back to feed her and let her out in the event that our flight was delayed.”

About: Ever since I can remember Ive always been around dogs and cats and tons of other animals! I’ve grown up on farms and so I am so used to animals, it’s become my life! I have a ton of energy and love to give. I’ve watched tons of family members animals and always put them first! I can walk, exercise, feed and water the dogs if needed. I have volunteered at the humane society for a while so I learned a lot there too. With working full time and going to school my availability is mostly the weekends, BUT when I take time off of school that may change:) When I am at someone’s home and they are trusting me with their babies, I try to make sure to take the best steps to keep them safe. If they need a leash I can do that, if there are any safety issues told to me I will take them seriously. Safety #1 then FUN!
“Dennis and Judy cared for my cat for a week. They spent time with her and entertained her. They sent pictures of my happy cat! I would definitely have them care for my cat again!”
“Jennifer was amazing. She took my last minute booking for the Fourth of July and followed directions to a T. I would definitely rebook with her. We couldn’t even tell that anyone had dropped by”

“Emalyn was amazing! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ She met my boys same day as a last minute drop-in & surprised me with how much my 4 year old dog warmed up to her! (Never seen him so calm with someone new) Will happily have her again & again!”

“Andrea took great care of my cats while I was away over night. She was very professional and clearly cares about animals and making sure that their people feel comfortable and reassured. She kept me updated, and I wasn’t worried for a moment while I was gone.”

About: I am bilingual in English and Spanish! I am very active and available everyday evening and weekends (Fri-Sun). I will care for your animal with all my love and attention. Have experience giving medicine to dogs. I am a chiropractic assistant and work Monday-Thursday. I am available to sit or walk animals every evening and on weekends. I am very flexible! With three cats, I pride on keeping a clean and sanitary home! They deserve the best, and so do your babies. I am willing to stay at your place and keep things exactly the way you want them!
About: Ever since I was little I’ve helped out with the care of my own family pets and our neighbors and friends as well. I have always LOVED animals and I’ve never found a cat or dog that doesn’t like me. In my past I’ve been in charge of walking and exercising dogs, feeding and watering dogs, and providing an abundance of love! As of now I just graduated college and spent a month abroad in Europe. I am looking for part time work and my schedule is completely open (: I live in an all adult household on 6 acres of land. There are fenced areas where your animal could roam safety, and in the non fenced areas, I’m happy to keep your fur baby on leash and prevent any accidents. I will accommodate to anything your pet needs while they stay with me!

“Got back in town from a week long trip to find a couple happy dogs and clean house. I'm so thankful for Ali taking care of my babies. Always was on time always got picture updates I didn't worry about them as much because of it. Highly recommend booking with him. Super nice guy, will be hiring him again! Thanks Ali!”

“Jordan has been wonderful about watching my ducks. It’s a somewhat unusual pet sitting request, but he adapted to it right away and always sends the cutest pictures. I feel confident leaving my duckies knowing Jordan is watching them.”
