“Stefanie was great with my fur baby Lizzie. Lizzie has anxiety and can’t be left alone or put in a kennel. Stefanie stayed with Liz every minute why we were gone. Stefanie took Lizzie on long walks in the woods and down to the lake. Stefanie updated me through out the day letting me know how Liz was doing and even sent me pictures of Liz through out the day. Liz stayed with Stefanie two days in a row. The 2nd morning we took Liz, she was so excited to see Stefanie. That means so much to a pet owner when your pet is happy to be with someone in their care. We will be using Stefanie again when we are back in the area. Thanks so much your the best Stefanie!”

About: What sets me apart is my genuine passion for all types of pets combined with a highly personalized and attentive approach to care. I treat every pet as if they were my own — learning their unique personality, preferences, and routine so they feel comfortable and happy right away. Above all, I’m deeply committed to building trust with both the owner and the pet. Previous clients often mention how relaxed and joyful their pets are when they return home — that kind of feedback means everything to me. Pet care is something I look forward to and easily weave into my daily life. I’m usually up early and start the day with some morning outside time and porch lounging. Being home during the day allows for me to provide regular potty breaks, play sessions, and companionship. Evenings are relaxed with dinner, ample outside time, and plenty of snuggle or training time. Combined with my own pets and also sitting for friends and family for years now, I have gained experience in many pet types and also experience caring for all stages of life-energetic pups to older dogs with special needs. This has taught me how to stay flexible and attentive to each pet’s individual routine, needs, and personality. I genuinely enjoy the responsibility and rhythm of pet care and would communicate regularly with you to make sure your see that your pet feels right at home. My goal is to keep you pet happy and comfortable while maintaining their normal routine while you are away- no matter the type of pet or they’re stage in life. I create a calm, safe, and loving environment for pets in my home. I start by learning their normal routine from the owner and do my best to keep it consistent. This means pity breaks matching your normal, fresh water always available, and meals served on their regular schedule with any needed medications. During the day I make sure they get plenty of playtime — whether that’s friend fun in my backyard with my two pups, play with their favorite toys, or gentle training sessions. I also give lots of affection and quiet companionship so they don’t feel lonely. At night, I provide a comfortable sleeping area (crate if preferred) or free range indoors to pick their own comfy place and I always do a final potty break before bed. My home is fully pet-proofed, clean, and free of hazards. I’ve cared for several friends’ and family dogs overnight and for extended stays, including high-energy young dogs to calmer senior pups and even stage in between. I send regular updates and photos if desired so owners can relax knowing their pet is happy and well cared for.

“I feel blessed for having found Jane. My dog came back home so calm and chill, which shows she was loved and not scared. Jane also sent me lots of updates throughout the day. We will definitely go back! Thank you so much”

“Our pup totally enjoyed her day! She seemed so happy (and tired lol) when we picked her up. Luna was a great playmate! We got a ton of pics and videos to see how her day was going. Kristen was so very sweet to us and our furbaby. We know she was well cared for and will rebook here again 💜”

About: Pet care in our home is truly a calling for me. I have over 35 years of experience caring for animals, and I humbly believe God has given me a special gift for working with them. I provide hands-on, attentive care every day, including walking, feeding, basic training reinforcement, and—most importantly—genuine affection and companionship. I offer a calm, structured, and nurturing environment where pets are treated like family, not just clients. I am comfortable working with a wide variety of pets and take the time to understand each animal’s unique needs and personality. Your pet will receive patient, individualized care, plenty of interaction, and a safe, loving place to feel at home while you’re away. Pet care is woven into my daily routine. Between homeschooling our daughter and managing our home and all the projects of our Farm, caring for animals through feeding, walks, training, playtime, and supervision is a consistent, intentional part of every day! I care for pets in our home as if they are part of our family. They receive a safe, calm environment with structured routines that include feeding, walks, playtime, rest, and one-on-one attention. I take time to understand each pet's personality, comfort level, and needs, whether that means active engagement, gentle training, or quiet companionship. Pets are closely supervised, shown patience and kindness, and given plenty of affection so they feel secure, respected, and at home while in my care.

“I highly recommend Kristi for your babies needs. Being new to the area and having a new puppy is exciting and scary. Trusting someone with your baby is hard. She was so comforting to me and gave me regular updates. This was the first time I left Chandler with anyone. She has 2 dogs herself and Frankie is the same breed as Chandler. Dachshunds needs special care and she even had ramps to accommodate their backs. I will definitely use Kristi again.❤️💙🩷”

My experience includes caring for puppies who need training and patience, as well as senior pets who require extra gentleness and support.

As a stay-at-home mom, I spend about 80% of my time at home. This allows me to give pets consistent love, attention, and supervision throughout the day. My three children, who are all animal lovers, also enjoy providing extra playtime and cuddles, making sure your pet always feels included and cared for. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. We live on a 2-acres with a secure fenced-in yard for safe, off-leash play and exploration.

Our home is filled with love, supervision, and plenty of cozy spots for relaxation so your pet feels secure and happy.

I am a dog mom myself and know the struggles of finding a safe and loving place while away! I offer overnight stays, dog walking, and drop ins! I have 2 female dobermans who are gentle giants. One is 4 years old and i also have a 1 year old. She LOVES playing and having friends around! Small or large!! I can assure you that your dog/cat would be more than at home here and treated just as my own. I also have a 14 year old son who loves animals as well and really enjoys helping out with their needs. Looking forward to hearing from you! I work from home, so your pet will never be alone or crated all day! I have a fenced in front and back yard that are separated, they are let out very frequently as we go in and out all the time and they go freely as they want since it's all fenced in! There is nothing around my home that isn't safe for them they are part of the family when they are here! I work from home, so I am always here with them! No different from any other day except four extra paws and a new friend 😍 I have a fenced yard. The front is separated from the back so they can go out together or separately. Besides that they run free in my home, possibly crated at night time so we don't have any uh ohs!

About: Hi there! I’ve been an experienced vet tech for 6+ years and love nothing more than working with pets. I currently have 3 of my own that my world revolves around! They are great with dogs of all ages and energy styles. Whether your dog would love some playmates or is more relaxed and wants to be left alone, my dogs easily adjust to a doggie guest in our home. Needless to say, whether it’s in your home or mine, I will give your pet the time, care & attention they need! I have a large yard and love hiking or taking my dogs swimming, so if your dog is active and will enjoy outings please let me know and I would be glad to take them out of the house while you are enjoying your vacation. I am experienced with medical cases and can give medications including injections. I work from home and can give your pet the time and attention they need during the day. I have multiple rooms in my house so whether your dog wants to lounge around with the pack, or needs to be separated, we will make what needs to happen work for your pup! I have experience working with all types of dogs, whether they’re super outgoing, a little shy, or even maybe a little reactive, I have no problem adjusting to meet their needs. I have extensive experiences working with special needs/medical case animals as well!

About: I have had a dog as a family pet for my entire life, and I've personally taken care of family friends' pets since I was a preteen as well, so you could say I know my way around the species pretty well and I know that great pet owners mean they are treated as a member of the family. I will be communicative, respectful, and flexible with the owners and a caring new friend for the furry family member who's been left behind. I'm a teacher on holiday, so my first priority this summer is your pet, and I will absolutely ensure he or she is very well taken care of. Thank you in advance for your consideration, I am looking forward to taking care of your pet!
