About: I have grown up around all kinds of dogs all of my life. Dogs who are scared of everyone, love everyone they all hold a special place in my heart. I have always wanted to do this ! I am a stay at home mom with two dogs of my own, so I really have a very open Monday-Friday Schedule and I am open to discussing weekends! I will treat them just like they are mine, and mine are spoiled to a core. All dogs are special and deserve to know they are loved.

Tiffany took great care of my dog. I know she was anxious because there were other dogs there, but Tiffany made sure she felt safe and comfortable.

JeBecca absolutely LOVED her stay with Cheyanne and her family. Cheyanne sent several pictures everyday showing JeBecca playing with her other dogs/puppy. I am so thrilled that I have found such a loving family to watch over my fur baby when I have to go out of town. 10 out of 10, the BEST!

She was great with Chase; she kept me updated every day—sending me photos and updates on his behavior. Chase was very happy with her. I would definitely contact her again. Thanks, Rihanna.

About: I grew up on a farm and cared for a variety of animals including cows, pigs, horses, goats and dogs. Having owned dogs my entire life and currently have 3 of my own, I am passionate about providing the best care. I can recognize the challenges of leaving your pets behind while traveling and the peace of mind that comes from knowing they are in capable and caring hands. I am committed to treating every pet I care for as if they were my own, ensuring their comfort, safety, and happiness at all times. I work part-time so I will have plenty of time to care for your pets. I live super close to numerous parks and walking trails that will allow me to incorporate regular exercise and outdoor time into your pets' schedule here. **Dog Boarding in our home means either you drop your dog(s) off at a discussed time at our home or we pick them up. It is important to be on time for your booked drop-off and pick-up time slot, as we may be accommodating others. If you are unable to be on time please let me know as soon as possible so that we are able to reschedule your time slot. WHAT YOU NEED TO BRING: -Food: Please prepackage each meal. No need to bring bowls unless they require a slow feeder. -Any item that brings them comfort. ex. blanket or bed -Medicine: ex. anxiety meds, probiotics, vitamins. Bring whatever your dog will require while they are with me. **Drop-in visits are when I stop by your home to address any needs your dog my need, such as: food/water, potty break, quick play time, medications, etc. Visits are usually 20-40 minutes depending on what needs to be done. **Dog Walking will require me to come to your home and walk your dog in your neighborhood. Please let me know in advance if your dog is a bit hesitant on new/different walk paths. (Some pets do not like to take different routes that what they are used to.)

About: Animals have always been a central part of my life. As a pet owner myself, I understand that our pets are family members, not just animals. My personal dogs receive the same love, attention, and care that I would want for any pet entrusted to me. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have more than 15 years of hands-on experience with dogs and cats, including owning and operating a nonprofit animal rescue for five years. Through my rescue work, I cared for hundreds of dogs of all ages, breeds, sizes, and temperaments, including puppies, seniors, special-needs pets, and dogs recovering from illness or surgery. I am experienced with administering medications, monitoring health concerns, and recognizing when a pet may need extra attention or veterinary care. I know that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply having a calm companion nearby, I will care for them as if they were my own. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide attentive care and accommodate a variety of pet care needs. Because I spend a significant amount of time at home, your pet will receive plenty of attention, companionship, exercise, and potty breaks throughout the day. I understand the importance of maintaining routines and will work with you to ensure your pet’s schedule, feeding times, medications, and preferences are followed closely. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a quieter environment, I can provide the level of care and attention they need. Safety is always my top priority. My experience running an animal rescue taught me how to properly introduce dogs, recognize signs of stress, manage different personalities, and provide a safe environment for pets with varying needs. I have a securely fenced yard and closely supervise outdoor time. I can also accommodate medications, special feeding instructions, crate training, and senior pet care.

About: I've taken care of dogs of every kind since I was a teenager. My friends, neighbors, and my family would rely on me to check on them. I would play with them, feed them, walk them, and sometimes if they have injuries I would change them and keep an eye on them while they were in my care. I'm currently not working at this moment. Im available from 9-5 during the weekdays but on the weekends I can do a couple hours if needed. I prefer the weekdays to be at the client's house and the weekends can be at my house because I have my kiddos. They love animals like they run with them and play fetch as well.

About: Hello, My name is Cynthia and I’m a huge dog and cat lover. I’ve had many family friendly animals over the course of my life. I have fostered dogs and volunteered in the past at shelters. I currently have 2 adopted fur baby dogs in my home. 1 neutered male 9 years old and 1 spayed female 7 years old both of medium size. My human child is a veterinarian technician as our love for animals runs in the family. I have a lifetime of experience in dog walking and caring for dogs in all stages of life. I understand the trust required to care for your 'kids'. I specialize in providing a nurturing environment for anxious dogs as my own female pup has special needs as well as active pets alike. I live in a 3-bedroom home with a fenced back yard in the country. Whether your pup loves long walks or cozy snuggles, I’m dedicated to keeping them safe, happy, and exercised! I am comfortable with administering meds and managing complex routines." I work from home and I am off on the evening, weekends and holidays. So plenty of time for play time, attention, walks and snuggles. I have a fenced in yard with 2 friendly pups to keep yours company. My pups are crate trained and can be crated if needed. I also have a gated deck from the yard. Only pet friendly or organic products used in fenced backyard such as spruce..

I am currently a stay at home Mom. So your pets will have cuddles and plenty of play time throughout the day! I typically start my morning at 6:30. So early morning risers are no problem for me! I live in a 2 story house and have plenty of space for your fur baby. I can make any accommodations to make your baby comfortable in your home or mine.

About: My experience is rooted in the continuous, loving care of my family's three dogs, meaning I am intimately familiar with detailed daily routines and unique care requirements. I am comfortable and confident handling dogs from a petite 9 lbs up to a grand 110 lbs, ensuring every pet receives safe, personalized, and attentive care. As a full-time student who studies primarily from home, I offer truly exceptional availability and supervision. Unlike many sitters who work outside the home, I am almost always present to ensure your pet gets continuous companionship, scheduled walks, and frequent potty breaks throughout the day. Safety and trust are my highest priorities. When caring for your pet in my home, they gain access to a truly unique and stimulating environment: 11.5 acres of mostly forested property. They can safely explore and play in my large, securely fenced yard, and enjoy supervised adventures along the numerous private wooded trails, offering the perfect blend of natural enrichment and peace of mind.
