About: I have several years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. From energetic puppies to senior dogs needing extra patience and care, I tailor my approach to each pet’s needs. I’m confident in handling feeding routines, administering medication, and maintaining a calm, safe environment, whether during walks, playtime, or overnight stays. What sets me apart is my attention to detail and commitment to each pet’s well-being. I treat every dog as if they were my own, ensuring they feel comfortable, engaged, and loved while you’re away. I’m also highly dependable, responsive, and respectful of your home and your pet’s routine. I currently work part-time, which allows me flexible availability to provide quality pet care. I’m available for dog walking and sitting before 4 PM and after 7 PM from Monday to Thursday, and on Fridays & weekends, I’m free before 1 PM and after 5 PM. This schedule ensures I can give your pet focused attention during these times while fitting care reliably into my day. When caring for pets in their own home, I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment that respects their routine and space. Whether I’m walking your dog or staying overnight, I follow all your instructions carefully, from feeding and exercise to medication and playtime. I maintain open communication with you throughout the care period, providing updates and photos to keep you connected. As a dog walker, I always make sure that leashes and harnesses are secure, stay aware of surroundings, and ensure your dog is safe and happy during every outing. For overnight stays, I treat your home with respect and maintain a clean, quiet atmosphere so your pet feels secure and relaxed while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities, and I strive to build trust with both you and your furry friend through responsible, loving care.

About: I’ve been the owner of a pit bull/lab mix for 6 years. My doggie was definitely a trouble maker growing up, so I’m able to handle a lot of stress. I’ve house sat and watched my friends doggies countless times, and they always ask me whenever they need a pet sitter! I love love love doggies so much, so it’ll be amazing if I can get paid while spending time with them! I work 6am-3pm and after that I’m available to walk, baby sit, play with your doggies! I especially love long walks, and playtime with dogs! I always make sure that there’s a trust between me and the doggie first. I don’t want to make the dog overwhelmed so I let them sniff me first, and see how they react around me. If they are a little nervous and scared, I’ll try to ease them in with some treats or some pets. I always want to make sure they feel safe and secure.

“Michele was perfect helping my wife and our cat. She came at a time that worked well for my wife, who needed assistance while I was traveling. She worked well with my wife and even helped find some special diet catfood that had been misplaced in our home. She alsoi shared amazing pictures of our cat from her visits.”


About: I’ve loved dogs since my family adopted our standard poodle, Rocky, 12 years ago. Since then I have never passed up an opportunity to pet, walk, or take care of dogs. I am a college football player, and throughout this summer I only have workouts in the mornings so I am free to care for dogs in the afternoons, and Saturdays I am free the whole day. I am not planning on having pets in my home, but I will take care of your dog as if he were my own dog, and care for them as kindly as I possibly can.

“Cody is amazing! She took the time to learn my dog’s specific needs and personality, and tailors her interaction with them. Her many years of experience with dogs was evident in the way that she cared for my senior dog’s needs and quirks. Aside from her professionalism (always on time, dependable, reliable, trustworthy), she is passionate about dogs, and my little one absolutely loved her! She went out of her way to make sure that my dog felt safe and happy while I was away, and sent me lots of cute pics. I can’t say enough great things about her. You will love her. I will definitely be rebooking her again!”
