About: Hi There, My name is Megan! I am enjoying taking care of other pets in the community. Whether you board your dog in our home, I come to check in on your pet, you can be rest assured that your pet will be treated with the most care and love. In our home, we treat our animals as family! We do have a 4 year old at home, any pets that we care for in our home must be okay with a small child who is well behaved and fully supervised around your pet. Due to previously having aging dogs, we have experience with IV infusions, medication administration as well as experience caring for dogs with arthritis / displasia. We look forward to taking care of your loved one while you are away. My husband and I work full time and from home. We both are equally passionate about animals. Our day usually starts around 5am and we work from home. We have the freedom to sit out side (during cooler months) and work from our laptops while your pet may enjoy running around our fenced back yard, sunbathing or just finding a cozy spot in the shade. We typically are home all the time unless we are heading out to run some errands or meet with a friend, but generally speaking, we are never gone more than a couple of hours at a time. Drop In visits: My flexible schedule allows me to drop in on your pets at any time (as requested). Just let me know what works for you :) Boarding: In cooler months I am happy to get your pup out for walks 2-3 times a day. Water (and food) are readily available and accessible at all times. We love to play fetch, tug-o-war or just hang out with lots of snuggles and pets. We are happy to cater to your pets preferences. Our yard is fully fenced and we have a small, but nice grassy area for play. Drop In Visits: I am happy to drop in on your pets whenever needed in order to keep them in their regular routine as much as possible. I always make sure to keep your pets well feed and hydrated and of course I feel its also important to make sure they are having a fun time while you are away. Let me know what their favorite toy or activities are and im happy to keep them active while you are away.

“Evelyn was very good with our dogs from the moment she entered the house. The pups listen to her during the walk and came home vey happy!!! I would recommend Evelyn 100%”

About: I live 5 min from the airport. My family and I have always been animal lovers, and I grew up surrounded by animal love. I've always lived with pets, both dogs and cats, and therefore understand their needs and how to make them feel at home. During my care, I provide constant updates on your pet's status and keep up with changes in mood or behavior. I'm a very active and fit person, ready to play nonstop or go for long walks. I love to take care of all kind of pets. Weekend will be the best moment to get animal love in my life and also help people to have the best care experience for their pets. I have a medium size house with a fenced back yard perfect for pets to run and play. My family and I love to care animals so love will be given all the time and your friend will always be treated with the best conditions.

“Absolutely wonderful! Great communication, my dogs love her, I couldn’t ask for more!”

About: I've been blessed by cats and dogs since college, and have navigated everything from the puppy and kitten chaos through the golden senior years. My husband and I are home full time to tend to your pets. Expert at delivering oral medications and basic care. I check all guests with a flea comb on arrival and am happy to do daily brushing for long haired breeds. Big believer in providing enrichment activities such as puzzles and snuffle mats, agility training for active dog breeds, and proper socialization. All boarded animals will have the option to be socialized with our household animals or be boarded separately, we have designed our home to have several completely separated areas. I work from home, and am available 24/7 to tend to your pets. I'm an early riser for those early morning potty breaks and can make late night potty breaks work as needed. I care for all animals with love, decency, and respect. Adhering to their existing schedules is key when boarding them in a new space, so I try to keep their day to day as normal as possible. I'm a big fan of natural treats and fun enrichment activities; I have a variety of puzzle feeders and snuffle mats for all animals. I have a fully enclosed back yard with plenty of grass for running and playing. The neighborhood is good for walking as well. I aim for at least 30 minutes of supervised playtime in the yard per day for all dogs. There is also a fully enclosed cat patio for safe outdoor access as well as two bedrooms devoted to pets. One of these has its own entrance to and from the yard for boarding pets who desire no interaction with other animals.

“Kailea was the sweetest! Smoky loved her back. She was very helpful in dealing with Rover, I must say.”

About: My name is Emma and I am a lifetime pet owner as well as a pet foster parent, cat sitter, and dog walker/sitter for the past 12 years. I'm ready to love on your animals! I work from home as a grad student, so I'm extremely flexible as well as reliable and committed. I love working with dogs of all breeds, but have a soft spot for bully breeds. My partner owns a dog walking/sitting business in another state specializing in bully breeds and reactive dogs, so I have a ton of experience working with reactive or nervous dogs and can give tips or small amounts if you desire. My apartment complex also has a dog park if you need it! I've owned cats all my live, most recently siberian cats and maine coons, I don't have any pets right now, so i'd love to take care of your kitties as well. Looking forward to chatting about your needs! I strive to create routines and positive experiences for your fur babies. My schedule is entirely flexible and I have a car. I love opportunities to get out of the house. I walk some dogs already in my building but have a very open schedule as I recently moved to the area I live in a pet friendly complex with two fenced in dog parks and a dog washing station. I can do whatever will make your pet feel best, be it crating dog or letting them sleep on the bed. I have no pets right now so no concerns there. I leave houses extremely tidy and will follow all instructions to the letter while caring for your pet in your home!

About: I take the time to bond with each dog, earning their trust and making them feel safe, loved and understood. I adapt my approach to each dog’s personality, energy level and needs, whether it’s a playful pup who needs exercise or a senior dog who just wants gentle companionship. I’m currently working part-time as a realtor so I have a flexible schedule and can work around my clients schedules and needs as directed with notice. I live in a condo with two kittens so I will most likely be sitting at the client’s home. I will care for the pets as directed by the client, providing them photos and details of my time with their pets.

About: Taking care of animals isn’t just a job to me, it’s a hobby! Giving them the proper care they need brings me happiness everyday! I’ve had animals since I was 5 years old, and I’ve learned so much as a I got older. Bathing them, making sure they have a consistent food schedule, and giving them love and attention is my main priority! I will love your fur babies like my own and give them the best care they need. I’m currently working in a restaurant, so my availability would be Sunday through Thursday the full day and night, and every other Friday and Saturday. In your home I’ll first make sure your fur baby trusts me and gets used to me as I know I’m a new person in their home. I’ll make sure their properly fed with your schedule, bathe them if need be, taking them on walks every couple of hours, and giving them one on one attention.

“Michelle was a great dog walker and helped out when we were in a real pinch to get Maggie walked. She was professional, on time and it was so nice to know Maggie and I could count on her. And Maggie loved Michelle too! Excellent dog walker!!”

I am a voice teacher and singer, so my schedule is very flexible. I can work around almost anything and will be able to give consistent care if needed. Each animal is unique, and I pride myself on being able to adapt easily to new routines so that your fur baby can continue their day with little to no upsets.

“Highly recommend her! She communicates and arrives on time. Our dog must have really enjoyed his time with her because he was napping when I got home and was tired. She updated me with great pics of their walk.”

I am responsible and very energetic, I’m currently in college and would love to walk your dog! I’m home from college for the summer and I have a lot of time on my hands!
