Gary & Nicole take my baby, Layla, on walks every day I work, and they are the best! I get so many pictures, and Layla is always *smiling* in them. Knowing that I have two amesome, trustworthy care takers for my precious pup has been such a relief for me as I work really long days and often worry about my fur child being at home alone. Thank you for taking care of my baby and loving on her when I’m gone! I appreciate you guys more than you know.

About: Hi 👋 I offer overnight care in the pet's home environment to be sure they are well cared for while you're away. I'm available to care for them, love on them, and go above and beyond your expectations! I will come do an introductory visit with the pets while you are there so I can meet them and we can go over their routines, what they like to do during the day, discuss any medications, discuss any household chores, and we can be sure the pets will feel comfortable with me as their caregiver while you are away. I've been blessed to care for dogs, cats, horses, ponies, chickens, ducks, turtles, and even catfish. I’ve been blessed to pet sit for years and I will happily provide references at your request! I am available to pet/home sit for any duration. One day/night up to weeks at a time. My rates are fair and affordable. Along with caring for your fur family, I can also handle everyday household tasks such as watering plants, taking the trash to the road, checking the mail, and etc. Household chores are no extra charge. Please, no snakes or lizards. Let's chat! Other than pet sitting, I do ministry with a Christian camp. When we discuss the dates and what you need, I can tell you about my ministry schedule for the dates that you need me. Rest assured, I will be sure to take excellent care of your fur family! During the introductory visit, I make it a point to learn the general household schedule so I know what is normal around your home and what is not normal. I take safety of your fur family and your property seriously. If your fur family needs to go outside, I am right there with them. If your fur family stays outside, apart from me spending time playing with them, I check on them routinely to be sure they are safe and content.

About: With over 30 years of experience caring for dogs, loving animals has always been second nature to me. I’ve had dogs my entire life—they’ve never been “just pets,” but true members of the family. Creating a safe, loving, and happy environment for them brings me so much joy. I’m home during the day, which allows me to give your pet plenty of attention, playtime, and care throughout their stay. It would truly be our pleasure to welcome your furry family member into our home and treat them like one of our own while you’re away. Pet sitting fits seamlessly into my daily routine because I’m home throughout the day and have a flexible schedule. This allows me to give your pet consistent attention, plenty of potty breaks, playtime, and lots of love. I enjoy a peaceful home environment, which makes it easy to provide a calm, comforting space for pets to feel safe and relaxed. Whether it’s sticking to a routine or giving a little extra TLC, I’m able to be fully present and attentive to each pet’s unique needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. While I don’t have a fenced yard, all outdoor time is closely supervised to ensure your pet stays safe at all times. Inside, my home is a calm and welcoming environment where animals are truly treated like part of the family. I have one large, friendly dog who enjoys the company of other pets and helps create a playful atmosphere. I provide care where your pet will receive lots of love, attention, and personalized care in a safe and cozy setting.

About: I've always had at least one dog at any given time, and up to 4 at the most. I know what a fur baby needs, whether it's petting and naps to repetitive frisbee or tennis ball play! I enjoy the love each doggie brings. I know how hard it is to be at work or out of town and wonder if they are being adored in the same capacity as I would want to show. I can help alleviate the stress of being bored and alone all day, so YOU get all the best parts of your loving pup at the end of your long day. If they need snuggles, you've got the right girl! If they need a brisk hike or a run, let's give them what they deserve! Cats, birds, snakes, lizards and fish are all cared for in my presence

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of personalized, compassionate care I give every pet. I treat every animal like my own—learning their routines, understanding their quirks, and making sure they feel safe, loved, and relaxed while you’re away. I have experience with puppy care, including crate training, potty training, reinforcing positive behaviors, and building healthy routines. I’m patient, consistent, and always use reward-based techniques to help pups feel confident and secure. I’m also comfortable with senior pets, including giving medications, supporting limited mobility, providing slow and gentle walks, and making sure they stay comfortable and stress-free. I keep pet parents updated with frequent photos and messages so you always know how your fur baby is doing. My goal is to give you total peace of mind and give your pet the same level of love and attention they get at home. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I build my schedule around the pets I’m responsible for. I start each day with morning check-ins, walks, feeding, and playtime. Throughout the day, I make sure pets get regular potty breaks, enrichment, and plenty of affection. When caring for pets in their own space, I do everything I can to keep their routine and environment consistent. I follow your instructions closely for feeding, walks, playtime, medication, crate routines, and any special habits they have. I provide regular updates and photos so you know your pet is happy and your home is well cared for.
