About: Hi, I’m Emily and I already love your dog ☺️ Here’s how I know they’ll love it here too: • 12+ years experience caring for dogs • Home all day (work from home) • Large fenced yard • Cozy pet-friendly furniture • Great neighborhood for walks Bonuses: • Hallie (my dog) is ready to play! She’s super friendly. • My 10 year old son is often here and also ready to play! • Your dog may have new nicknames and/or songs about them by the time you pick up • I’m an artist, and I sometimes do pet artwork… 👀 I work from home primarily, so first check my available dates. But I’m flexible so let me know what you need and I’ll do my best to work with you! I have a fenced in yard, a playful dog and son, and lots of cozy spots to relax inside as well! We go on occasional walks as well ☺️

“Thank you so much Anna and Jake, all the updates were nice, Prophet’s a good boy, and you showed him so much love, he was sad to leave after a day!”


“She was very attentive to the individual needs of both of our dogs. The daily pictures and full report after were both appreciated. Our dogs will be back.”


“Taylor took exceptional care of our sweet girl while we did a quick trip away! She went above and beyond making her comfortable between fireworks and some rainy weather (both of which make her very anxious). Also we were provided great updates on our pup while we were gone!”


“Chloe and her fur kids were amazing in caring for my small dog, Bailey. Communication was above and beyond what I expected with frequent updates including photos. I was able to be away for two nights, with not a single worry as it was very clear Bailey was being cared for just as much as I would have. It was obvious that Bailey had a great time and she got tons of attention! I will definitely be leaving Baikey with Chloe again and would highly recommend her!”

About: I have been around dogs my whole life and currently have one of my own, so caring for them is second nature! I have experience with puppies all the way to senior dogs. We love to play, run around in our large yard, learn new tricks, and go on evening walks. There are also 2 kiddos at home who will make sure your pup is never bored! I work from home with a flexible schedule. The only time I am scheduled to leave the house is to take my kiddo to and from daycare. I am also flexible on if you would like long term or just occasional schedule. My dog is 5, and we have plenty of play time, potty breaks, and an evening walk. I treat any dog in my home as if it were my own! I have 1 dog now, so I am sure their schedules would likely align during the day.

“Hope was great with my girls. I had just recently moved to the area and found myself in need of a sitter immediately. I was very nervous but luckily my girls had a great time. Thanks for keeping them safe and sound while I was away!”


About: I have experience with all kinds of pets. From reptiles, felines, and mixed breed pups, to Pit Bulls and German Shepherds. I love them all 🫶🏾 I work from home for a minimal contact tech company. After my little ones leave for school at 7:30 AM, my schedule is completely flexible. We miss having fur babies around and will treat them as part of our family. I have mild mannered boys 7 and 5 that love nature and animals.

About: Hello! I am a 24 year old stay at home mom who would love to take care of animals. I used to work for a boarding facility for about a year and loved it unfortunately I moved. I am available everyday all day. I adopted two dogs and loved them to death and now I am no longer allowed to go to a shelter alone since I'll adopt every single animal haha. Since then they have both passed unfortunately. My daughter loves animals just as much as I do. I have taken care of a few of my neighbors animals when I was younger. I currently just moved back to the area and just looking for a side gig. I am currently going to school to be a CNA .

“Friendly people, communication was wonderful, will definitely recommend to others. Absolutely pleased with the whole experience. Stormy owner of Spike.”

I have plenty of time to walk your dog, play with your dog or just cuddle with your fur baby. I have very flexible time. I have a fenced big yard and two friendly dogs who can keep your pup company.
