“Cali stayed with Paul this time last year and was an ale to help me out again with a couple daily walks while she was being watched by my mom. Always great with communication and scheduling. And Cali definitely enjoys her time with him.”


About: I've been around animals since I was a kid. I am very comfortable with dogs and cats. I have a dog at home and have dog-sat for friends and family since I was a teenager. Whether it's taking a long walk or cuddling on the couch, I am happy to give your pet whatever they need. I have a dog at home so I am used to going on walks every day and a feeding routine. I've taken her to vet appointments and given her various medications for routine stuff like tick protectant. Over the years, I've helped friends and family take care of pets including walks, dog sitting, baths, and even puppy play dates. I do not offer boarding at my home but I plan to be respectful of both pet owners space as well as your pet's space. No matter where the pet is, whether that's on a walk or in a fenced yard, I will be alert and focused on the safety of your pet.

“Jonathan R. has been a totally responsible dog walker, and I can’t recommend him highly enough to you! He is professional and knows so much about the different breeds, and, most importantly, dogs like him! He arrived on time and kept me updated on my dog’s progress. He easily accepted the changes I requested in our schedule. Please seriously consider hiring Jonathan!”


“Our dog has special medical needs so we can’t trust just anyone with her care. Rachelle made us feel comfortable right away and our dog loved her. We will definitely be using her when I go back to work in the office.”


About: I’ve always been an animal lover but especially dogs and have one currently. Your dog will get lots of love and attention with me. I have a beautiful home on the lake and will feel like a vacation for your dog while you’re out of town. I have plenty of time during the week and weekends to be with your dog while you’re out of town. They can stay with me and enjoy the yard and lake or I can check on them at your home while you’re unavailable. I have one dog at home that is half husky, half lab. She stays out of a crate but I do have a crate if that is what your dog is used to. I have a run in my large backyard so they will get plenty of time outside and a lake for them to swim in if that’s their thing.

About: From the excited, to the reserved, to the elderly, I have a depth of experience to care for your animal kin. I've helped care for senior dogs when they struggled to walk down stairs, when food requirements changed on a whim, when the house has to be changed to reduce trips on tiles, and even when they can start wandering past bed time. It was not easy to care for them as puppies and it's not easy when they are elderly. But if one loves enough when they are babies, then they love enough to do the same as they are seniors. I'm between jobs and actively looking, so I have plenty of time to care for all your animal family members beyond a stop to fill bowls and empty boxes and the like. It all comes down to the first meeting. Not the first job. I want to know what you, your pets, and your house is like so I can do my very best to be attentive and observent in caring for them. This includes setting up a person emergency plan for common emergency care should it arise. Preparedness beats panic after all!

They usually roam free around the house, but if necessary can be crated.
