“Shari was AMAZING!! I felt very confident leaving our fur babies in Shari’s care. Her updates are always so personal & I know my pets are getting such love while I’m away from home.”


“I selected Stefanie because of a combination of her professional experience as a zookeeper and her number of repeat clients. After working with her I will also be one of those repeat clients. She was very understanding when I had to cancel my first days with her at the last minute. When she eventually took care of my cat she followed all instructions and remembered to do any requests that I sent to her. She's also a delightful person to interact with and it was obvious my cat loved her after viewing the photos I was sent.”

About: I have cared for neighborhood pets for many years. (dogs, cats, rabbits, and hamster) I enjoy caring for pets of all ages and will do whatever I can to help them in the stage of life they’re currently in. I currently work full time but I am available on evenings and weekends. If an early morning feeding is needed I can do that also. I currently do not keep pets at my home but am happy to drop by your place to do play time, walks and feedings for your pets.

About: 🐶1.5 acres fenced in yard. 🐶Veterinary assistant background. 🐶Low volume boarding/daycare. 🐶Licensed and insured. Pet first aid and CPR certified. Compassionate, reliable, responsible and patient....your pets home away from home. We have lots of room to run and play and explore, and they are always supervised. We have a pool if your dog likes water, and again, they will always be supervised if they do like to swim. We have a separate fenced in play area for smaller and older dogs when we have higher energy dogs here. It's always better to be safe than sorry. Safety is my top priority here. PLEASE READ ALL!! I always require a meet and greet and a paid trial daycare assessment and for any stays over 2 nights, I also require a paid overnight. The safety and comfort of your dog is my top priority and I want them to be happy here. These assessments tell me alot about your dog and how they will be with us. I look forward to meeting you and your pets. I can't wait to love and spoil them. This is my full-time job, so I will be home and have lots of time to spoil and love on your pets while they are with me. I will love them just like my own. They will enjoy lots of outdoor time in our fenced yard (weather permitting). They will be getting lots of belly rubs and scritches if they like that. Basically, when they are with me they get spoiled and catered to. We have a safe and secured fenced in 1.5 acres, with lots of room to run, play and just lay in the sun. They will always be supervised while outside. I will go over their typical home routine with you so I can stay as close to what they are used to when they are here.

About: With over 5 years of experience caring for pets of family and neighbors, I’ve turned my lifelong love of animals into something more. I currently have 4 cats and 2 dogs of my own, so I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member. Whether it’s a quick walk or a bit of extra playtime, I make sure every pup gets the attention, care, and energy they deserve. Reliable, loving, and always ready for a walk—let’s get those tails wagging! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility throughout the day to care for your pets—whether it’s a morning walk, a midday check-in, or evening snuggles. Since I already care for my own two dogs and four cats, I’m used to planning my day around feeding, walking, playtime, and attention. Your pet will feel right at home with someone who truly makes animals a prioriy Creating a safe, stress-free environment is my top priority. Whether I’m visiting your home or welcoming your pet into mine, I focus on making sure they feel calm, secure, and cared for. I pay close attention to their body language, stick to familiar routines, and always provide clean, pet-proofed spaces. With years of experience and a deep love for animals, I know how to earn a pet’s trust and make them feel right at home.

About: I have been around my family's pets since birth-dogs of all sizes and cats-but my journey with caring for them began when I was 14. I helped birth, raise, and train three litters of great dane puppies over the course of a few years and have loved and advocated for them ever since. I still petsit the dogs in my family household in their senior years. I understand that all animals have unique body language and I strive to pay great attention to this. As a house and petsitter, I will always adhere to your personal advice, if you have it: how to interpret your dogs' unique behavior, how to engage with their personality, and how to make them the most comfortable. I also trust my intuition and will always prioritize their safety. I look forward to being a great friend and caregiver to your furbabies! I am a student; From January to March I attend physical classes two days a week and I will be available on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fri/Sat/Sun. I cannot care for pets in my own home, however, I will travel up to an hour to care for them in your home. I have a driver's license and vehicle. I will provide the play and exercise per your pet's individual needs, feed them and keep water fresh, administer medication if needed per your instructions, and drive them to their favorite park or vet appointments.

About: I have been around pets of all kinds since I was 4 years old. I’ve taken care of kittens, adult cats, puppies, adult dogs of all breeds, pigs, chickens, rabbits, turtles, fish, and even crabs! 😂 My neighbors have always relied on me to watch their various types of pets while they are away. This is what led me here! I have moved and am looking for some new opportunities! I work almost 40 hours a week at my part-time job. I could have two days a week completely open. Most days I don’t go in until the afternoon and I am never off later than 9:30. I also typically have hour lunch breaks.

I love to love on dogs, give them treats for tricks, getting physical exercise in and out of the house, and especially snuggling! (When I know the dog and the owners are okay with that of course). However, I also have no problem sticking to their everyday schedule (if they have one). I can feed, walk, and crate your pet as scheduled. Honestly I’m just such an animal lover, nothing involving the care of animals bothers me. I believe it is our duty to return the unconditional love and support our pets provide us with!
