“Jenna has been such a lifesaver! She takes great care of her pup clientele. 10/10 would recommend her! I was always sent an update, and plenty of pictures of the dogs getting some fresh air mid-day.”
“I can’t recommend Ethan enough! From the moment we first met, it was clear he truly cared about animals and took the role seriously. He took the time to get to know my cat, Linda, and asked thoughtful questions about her routine, preferences, and quirks. While I was away, Ethan sent regular updates and adorable photos that really gave me peace of mind. Linda looked happy and relaxed in everyone. When I picked her up, she was calm, well-fed, and clearly lovingly cared for. The litter area was spotless. If you’re looking for someone reliable, kind, and attentive to take care of your pets, Ethan is an absolute gem. I’ll definitely be booking with him again. Thank you. Ethan”
“Sydnee communicated with us as often as needed; she was very responsive; was always on time and ready to work; was super kind and friendly with our pet; we highly recommend her, you won't be disappointed!”

“Taylor did a great job with Butterscotch. I received pictures upon each visit. She even went above my requests and cleaned around the catbox and food dishes. I will definitely use her again!”
“Jacqui did great with our cat, Flower. We were gone for a week and Flower seemed very at ease when we came home. Jacqui went above & beyond making sure our porch light was on/off when necessary & bringing in our mail. She was on time for every visit & sent photos/updates through out the week. She also responded to texts very fast which was relieving because our service was choppy. We will definitely be requesting her services again in the future!”

About: I have worked with dog rescues since 2018, and have adopted 4 dogs and a cat of my own. I am wanting to help others in and around my community with their pets! My full time job is Monday through Thursday, and I have the capability to care for dogs prior to 9am, and after 8pm. I also can make a stop during the day at almost any requested time for a midday potty break. I will follow directions to ensure I meet the expectations of each individual client. I can exercise your dog whether you want your dog to be leash walked, or to have play time in a fenced yard. I will adhere to feeding schedules, and ensure proper amounts are given to each individual dog. I am also able to give oral and injectable medications as needed.
About: I’ve had my dogs for four years now. They were shelter dogs so they required extra love and patience. I didn’t know their background so I had to learn them as they adjusted to me. It was trial and error with food, behavior, and temperament. It taught me patience and allowed me to understand animals more. I work full-time, but my best friend and I have extra time since we have weekends off and we love animals a lot. So we always find and make time for our babies. I have a fenced backyard so animals can run free and have their privacy. I have a water bowl outside for them and inside. We have toys and treats. I’d of course respect anyone’s wishes and do my best to meet their needs in their home.
About: I have had dogs my whole life! I am a huge animal person and I love spending time petting and playing with doggies. Your dog will enjoy time at a second home rather than sitting in a cage at a kennel. Lots of play time, and time outside! I currently have 1 dog of my own, that is very friendly towards other dogs. I also have 2 cats who don't mind dogs. 2 small children who are used to dogs being in the home. I promise you won't regret letting your dog come stay with us! Message me for a meet and greet with you pup! I make my own work schedule, so I am able to schedule myself plenty of time to care for your animals! I can easily allow frequent potty breaks All pets will be treated like they are my own! I will make sure to follow and guidelines given by their owners and give them the best care.
About: I am a small hobby farmer so i have experience with animals of all kinds and sizes. I have experience with rescue pets of all different temperaments, i have bottle fed entire litters of kittens myself and I have administered routine meds and shots. I have experienced with both young and senior pets. I currently work from home so my schedule is pretty flexible as long as i can work around my meeting times which tend to fall between the hours of 9:30-12 and occasionally some later in the afternoon. With a heads up its very easy to work out scheduled times for everyone! :) Whatever instructions the owner has to follow, I can easily accommodate them to care best for your pet in your home. I have my own vehicle for transportation to and from your home.
About: I have been taking care of animals ever since I was about 9 years old! I had a hamster growing up and we had two family dogs growing up. I have experience taking care of other people's animals as well as taking care of family pets such as my sister's dog (beagle mix) and my parent's dogs (two Chesapeake bay retrievers and a rescue hound). I also have experience taking care of cats for family & friends! I also have experience helping take care of newborn puppies, as my stepdad breeds Chesapeake Bay Retrievers. I love animals and I am very passionate about taking care of them and have always had a special place in my heart for them. As of right now I work full time, from 8am-5pm I am available evenings after 5pm and I am available on weekends. I could also potentially be available on my lunch break depending on the location, as I get an hour lunch break daily from 11am-12pm. I unfortunately can't offer in-home services at this time. I will be sure to follow any instructions or guidelines you need met for your fur-baby. I am a respectful individual and I will be sure your pet has the best care!
About: My parents were pretty sure I was going to be a vet or work in a zoo! I ended doing something completely different but my love for animals is still there. I've spent a lot of time with canines, felines, rodents, reptiles, insects... and each one has been a pleasure! I believe that sharing our lives with pets makes us better people. I am very happy that mine chose me as their human. I usually work a typical 8-5 M-F but now that traveling is getting back to normal, I have heard there is need for short term home stay, overnights and just life, that happens. Happy to help over the weekends and whenever possible. We have an energetic Jack Russell and a calm but active Lab. They have totally different personalities but they complement each other. The best care is the one that allows pets to be themselves, teaching them boundaries and "manners" in a loving way. They get well fed, they go out for their bathroom breaks - thank you fenced yard! - and lots of games and love.

She is dependable and has always followed through with her commitments and treats her animals like they are her children. I could not recommend her more for all your pet care needs!”

“Paige has taken care of my dog for weeks at a time and has always been absolutely stellar. My dog, Gandalf, is a deaf cattle dog so he is incredibly high energy, requires special attention, and can startle easily. Paige has always gone above and beyond and it is clear from every interaction between her and Gandalf that she has formed a connection with him and takes great care of him while I'm away. I can't recommend her enough!”
