15. Stacy L.
About: I’m the neighbor that dogs love to visit when allowed to escape their set boundaries. My friends dogs can’t wait to jump out of the vehicle when approaching my home and often resist the offer to “go for a ride”, when it’s time to go back home. I’m a true animal lover, and have had pets my entire life. I have cared for neighbors and friends pets for many years. I come highly recommended by those that know me and 100% trustworthy and dependable. I am a self employed hairstylist and also own a mobile wood sign painting class business. I have the coolest little eight year old daughter that is with me more than 70% of the time that I need to remain flexible for. Helping out with your pets just fits into our life quite well. I am very particular on a pet coming into my home. It has to be a very good fit for my little Yorkshire and my daughter. I require a meet and greet prior to allowing for this service. I have based my career around being a single mother and having my little girl a large portion of the time. Caring for your pet works nicely around my work and my daughter. This is something she and I really enjoy doing together. It is very important that your pet is good with children, since at some point in our visit there is a good chance she will be with me. Each pet has different needs and each pet owner has different expectations, so we can discuss this further once we have a chance to talk in person.
16. Tim & Emily B.
“Tim and Emily are great! They did so well with our animals while we were gone. They were great with communication and sent lots of pictures. I plan to definitely use them again as our animals seemed to enjoy their company very much!”
17. Tracy G.
“Tracy was great! She was quick to come meet our pets before staying for the weekend. She updated us daily and sent us pictures to ensure our dogs were well taken care of. Tracy was flexible with our dogs scheduled. Would recommend her and use her again in the future.”

About: I have had the joy of being surrounded by pets my entire life. I have been caring for my own pets (family pets included) and also my friends pets. I have pet sit for my parents cats and I have also pet sit for my friends goats and chickens on many different occasions. I have also had the pleasure of taking my friends dogs on multiple walks. I enjoy every minute I am surrounded by animals of many different shapes and sizes. I currently work from home and have the opportunity to have an open schedule during the week. I am available Monday through Friday from 6am - 10pm. Please make appointments at least a day in advance and cancel three days before scheduled appointment, if need be. I provide the best care for every and any animal I come across. For my own cats specifically, I make sure that they have access to fresh water and dry food daily. I also feed them wet food with the cleanest ingredients, 3 times a day. I also make sure to scoop their litter box multiple times a day and change it out every other day. I will transfer this personal experience of mine to your pets by providing them with the best care while also respecting my clients rules and wishes.

About: With 10 years of hands-on experience caring for my own pets and those of family and friends, I have developed a deep understanding of various animal needs, from playful puppies to gentle seniors. Additionally, my experience caring for dogs, cats and various small animals gives me a unique perspective on the different ways animals express their needs. With three cats and a rat at home, I know firsthand how to create a nurturing environment that meets each pet’s individual requirements. My goal is to provide peace of mind to pet owners, knowing their furry family members are in capable and caring hands. Currently, I work part-time from 1 PM to 6 PM, Monday through Friday, which gives me ample time in the mornings to tend to the needs of pets. Whether it’s taking them for a long walk, feeding, or simply spending quality time with them, I can dedicate my mornings to ensuring they are happy and well-cared for. On weekends, my availability is completely open. This means I can cater to a variety of pet care needs, from extended walks to overnight sitting, ensuring that your furry friends receive the attention and love they deserve. When caring for pets in my clients' homes, I maintain their established routines to minimize stress and ensure consistency. I adhere to their feeding and walking schedules, take time to play and bond, and keep an eye on their behavior and health. I also ensure the home environment remains clean and secure, with plenty of fresh water and safe access to outdoor areas for bathroom breaks. Communication is key, so I keep clients updated with photos and messages, providing them with peace of mind while they’re away. Whether at my home or theirs, my focus is always on creating a nurturing and loving atmosphere for every pet in my care.
