Trixie is opening right up to Leigh! She's normally very reserved around new people. It's so great that she's so chatty so quickly—it's a very positive sign. :)

About: With over six years of hands-on pet care experience, I’ve worked for three pet sitting companies, the MCSPCA, and at the same kennel twice. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and countless other animals—big and small—with love, patience, and reliability. Growing up surrounded by animals shaped my deep passion for their well-being, and I’m committed to treating every pet like family. 💞🐾 Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine, as I currently work part-time and have a flexible schedule. That means I have plenty of time and energy to dedicate to your pet. I'm available for dog walking and drop-in visits during the week and weekends, and I’m happy to help with holiday or last-minute bookings. Spending time with animals is something I genuinely love, so this never feels like “work” to me—it’s something I look forward to every day!! :) I grew up with dogs and have been surrounded by animals for most of my life, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pet. While I don’t offer in-home boarding, I treat every animal in my care as if they were my own. I always follow instructions carefully, prioritize safety, and strive to make every visit calm, fun, and stress-free. Whether it’s a big, energetic pup or a shy senior cat, I have experience with pets of all shapes, sizes, and personalities ♥︎

About: I have dogs all my life, and adore animals. I am truly happier around animals, and keeping them company and safe while having fun as well. I am available on the weekends to take care of your pup and make sure they have the best time while their parents have a mini vacay. I have a big fenced yard where your pup is able to run around freely, and a cute little cute friendly Yorkie to keep your pup company.

About: Hello, I'm Lisa. For my entire life, I have lived with and cared for pets of all ages, life stages, and diverse needs. I specialize in providing meticulous, high-level care that prioritizes both the physical safety and emotional comfort of your animals. Whether assisting senior dogs with mobility challenges, maintaining precise puppy routines, or navigating complex medical requirements, I treat every pet with the gentle, respectful care they deserve. I pride myself on being patient, highly observant, and adaptive to each pet's unique personality. If you are looking for a reliable, responsible professional who puts your pet's total well-being first, I would love to connect for a Meet & Greet! From the Corporate Ladder to the Dog Park! After 20 years in the fast-paced world of market research, I decided it was finally time to trade the corporate rat race for something far more rewarding: the puppy race (and the kitty cuddle). With my kids raised and my spreadsheets officially closed, I am channeling two decades of project management, laser-focused observation, and high-level problem-solving into a new daily routine—one completely dedicated to the happiness and well-being of your pets. My schedule is no longer ruled by corporate deadlines, which means I have the flexibility, energy, and time to give your canine and feline friends my undivided attention. My daily routine is built around consistency and care: - Morning Brisk Walks & Fresh Air: Perfect for high-energy pups who need a great start to their day. - Mid-Day Check-Ins & Routine Maintenance: Keeping puppies on track, administering timed medications, and ensuring seniors get the gentle care and mobility assistance they need. - Afternoon Feline Focus: Dedicated quiet time for litter box maintenance, precise feeding, and earning the trust of your cats on their own terms. I’ve traded analyzing consumer behavior for interpreting tail wags and cat purrs—and honestly, the data says this is going to be my best chapter yet. I am fully available, entirely flexible, and ready for this adventure! Your Peace of Mind is My Priority! Bringing someone new into your home or trusting them with your furry family member is a big deal - I get it. My 20 years in a detail-oriented corporate environment means "good enough" isn't in my vocabulary. Whether I am caring for your pets under my roof or yours, I treat safety as a non-negotiable metric and your home with the utmost respect. In Your Home: Respect, Security & Seamless Routines When I visit your home, my goal is to leave it exactly as I found it and ensure your pet’s routine doesn't skip a beat. - Bulletproof Security: I double-check locks, secure gates, and follow your precise instructions for alarms and key handling. - Meticulous Environmental Checks: I keep an eye out for hidden hazards (like loose cords or dropped food) and ensure water bowls are pristine and litter boxes are spotless. - Respecting the Sanctuary: Your home is your sanctuary. I operate with total discretion, cleanliness, and respect for your space. In My Home: A Safe, Cozy Haven When your pet stays with me, they aren't just guest-starring in my week... they are part of the family. - The "Empty Nest" Advantage: With my kids grown, my home is a calm, predictable, and predictable environment. There are no chaotic schedules or unexpected guests, just a space dedicated entirely to pet comfort and security. - The Best of Both Worlds (Play & Peace): I have a large, fully fenced-in yard perfect for burning off energy and exploring safely. - Built-in Buddies or Solo Space: Your pup can socialize and play with my two friendly resident dogs. However, if your pet prefers their own space or needs a quiet nap, I have a dedicated separate room where they can rest, recharge, and enjoy some peaceful time away from the pack. - Constant Supervision: Because this is my full-time focus, your pet receives dedicated, watchful supervision, plenty of companionship, and immediate attention to their emotional and physical needs. The Bottom Line on Trust I am fully committed to open communication. You will receive regular, detailed updates and plenty of photos so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. I manage safety with a professional eye and deliver care with a mother's heart.

About: I am a college student and have experience with little and big dogs. I have been a pet owner for a majority of my life. I have watched dogs for my friends, family members, and neighbors, while they are away for a short period or extended time periods . I have assisted owners with potty training and continue with the same commands and rules of their home with their fur baby. I am very trust worthy and responsible. I love all dogs and have the knowledge to take care of your babies while you are away. I have 2 fur babies of my own at home so I spend a lot of time in my daily life with them. All of my friends, family, and neighbors have dogs so I am constantly around or taking care of them. I have a fenced in yard and two pups of my own. I also have a crate easily accessible if need be. I have lots of doggy toys. I prefer not to have other dogs at my house since I do have a puppy and another very old dog. I maintain a clean dog safe environment to ensure the safety of all pups and avoid situations.

About: I have had dogs all of my life and have been caring for them as well. I currently have 4 dogs of my own, one being my working dog. Working with a dog every single day is a dream come true and I would love to continue sharing my love and knowledge of dogs to others. I work full time for the government and currently get out at 2pm. After that I would love to help anyone else who is in need of assisting or taking their pets out for walks and playing with them. In my home, I have a fenced in yard around my entire house and let my animals run around. I also take them on walks around the neighborhood to get them out of that same area.

About: I’ve owned a small dog since 2017 and have been taking care of many different kinds of dogs since I was around 11 years old. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes and personalities through family, friends, and neighbors, including medium and large breeds. I’ve also dog sat and walked regularly, so I’m comfortable handling different routines and energy levels. What sets me apart is my reliability and my ability to read dog body language. I pay close attention to how dogs are feeling and adjust to their needs, whether they’re playful, anxious, or more laid-back. Animals tend to trust me quickly, and I make sure every dog I care for feels safe, comfortable, and well taken care of. Pet care fits into my daily and weekly routine alongside school and my part-time job. I’m doing this to gain even more hands-on experience with animals because it’s something I genuinely enjoy. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and sitting around my schedule, and I make sure to only accept bookings I can fully commit to. I also volunteer at an animal shelter, which has given me additional experience working with different types of animals and temperaments. Because of this, caring for pets is already a regular part of my life, and I’m used to balancing responsibilities while still giving animals the time, attention, and care they deserve. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. For dog walking, I make sure each walk matches the dog’s energy level, whether that’s a quick potty break or a longer, more active walk. I pay close attention to their behavior and surroundings to keep them safe at all times. For pet sitting, I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications if needed, and any specific care routines. I spend quality time with pets so they feel comfortable and not alone, whether that’s playing, relaxing with them, or just being present. I’m also very respectful of my clients’ homes, keeping everything clean and secure. I’m reliable, communicative, and make sure to provide updates so owners feel confident their pets are in good hands.

Bethany was amazing. She was excellent at communication, and sending plenty of photos while we were away. If she had questions, she always asked and clarified. We agreed to have her boyfriend assist on some days- and our dogs seemed to love him just as much as they loved her! Not everyone can handle a Great Dane and German Shepherd as well as she did :) 100% rebooking with her, and recommending her to family/friends in the area!

Steve is an absolute lifesaver and truly the BEST of the best! As someone living out of state, when a family emergency struck and left our beloved feline companion in need of urgent care during a major holiday week, I was in a complete panic. But then Steve came to the rescue, responding with lightning speed and professionalism that immediately put my mind at ease. He didn't just provide "excellent care"; Steve went above and beyond in every possible way. He understood the anxiety of being far away and proactively sent detailed updates, including photos and videos, which were an incredible source of comfort. Beyond the immediate needs, Steve meticulously identified and communicated a list of necessary supplies, ensuring our furry family member had everything required to remain healthy and safe. Steve's dedication, quick thinking, and genuine compassion transformed a stressful, difficult situation into one filled with immense relief and gratitude. I cannot recommend him highly enough – he's not just a cat sitter, he's a guardian angel for pets and their worried owners!
