If we’re ever in the area again we will definitely be using her services!”


About: Been a pet groomer for over 16 years! I’ve pet sat for clients before. I have also administered insulin to diabetic pets when pet sitting! I work from home so I’m around pretty much all the time. I will take afternoon walks. I like to be outside, in the evenings my family and I will be in the back yard playing. We have a pyrndoodle who Loves to play, we sadly lost our other family dog 3 years ago. We have enjoyed pet sitting. It has helped fill a void. We went this route because we saw how hurt our other dog was and we didn’t want to get a new dog and have the same thing happen to them. This has been a great way for our dog to have fun! I have a fenced in yard. We let our dog out 3-4 times a day, as well as a walk a day to help keep his joints healthy.

About: I have lived dog with multiple dogs my whole life. I have 5 years of experience in the veterinary world that has broadened my horizon to the variety of breeds out there and the different requirements they need. I also specialize in medicating our furry friends in the most stress-free way possible. I have experience training my own service dog from 8 weeks old to present and continue to keep his training up to date. I also specialize in hospice care for our are geriatric puppies, because no matter how old they are, they are always puppies to us. I am currently pet sitting for people Part-Time. my goal is to make caring for animals my full-time job. While I continuemaking commissioned pet portraits! Along with other commissions for various prints and paintings. At my house, dogs will eat separately from other dogs for safety and have long line leash walks for potty breaks. If a pet is known to have toy aggression, toys will be taken out of the equation. I do have a service dog that comes with me everywhere including my clients homes. If a client 's pet is dog aggressive or the cats are scared of dog, I will not have my service dog interact with them to give comfort and safety for all.

About: Hi- I'm Rikki… Pearl is my shadow. I’ve delivered her eight puppies & given their shots. I pamper animals with holistic care that leaves them feeling squeaky clean and zen. Doggy CPR certified— when tails stop wagging, I’m the lifesaver ready to jump in with treats, belly rubs, and superpowers. I have extensive experience in senior dog care, ensuring that older pups receive the love, attention, and specialized care they need. Pearl's Palace is like a dog "spa" surrounded by a welcoming community of pet-loving neighbors. From the moment your pup arrives, they’re welcomed like family. Mornings often start with a friendly sniff-and-greet, followed by some outdoor play or a stroll around the neighborhood to stretch those legs. If the weather’s nice, supervised pool time keeps things exciting (and doubles as a workout). Midday brings rest in a shaded spot or inside the home, with fresh water always available. Throughout the day, dogs enjoy a mix of play, cuddle breaks, and light grooming—nail checks, brushing, or a spritz of my handmade lavender-infused conditioner for relaxation and bug protection. Afternoon activities may include fetch, enrichment games, or lounging by the pool while soaking up the sun. Evening winds down with a final potty break, gentle pets, and plenty of praise before pick-up or bedtime, so your dog heads home happy, relaxed, and maybe just a little spoiled. I have a tall privacy fence and a Great Dane to keep your pets company. Walks are regular and so is meeting new dog friends. Instructions for in-home care are followed as specified below.

About: All my life I’ve had dogs, ranging from different breeds and sizes (Chihuahua, Beagle, Dachshund, Husky, Labrador, Boston Terrier and mix).

This gives me the flexibility to go tailor my schedule to your pets needs (Up to 25lbs dogs). (P.D Repeat clients get a discount) I’m currently a stay at home doggy mom, so taking care of your furry baby won’t be a problem at all with my free schedule. In my apartment I have a big play pen that surrounds the living room so I can keep company to your pet. At the apartment complex we have big unfenced yards. I also have a small terrace in case of unvaccinated puppies that can’t be outside at the moment.

sabrina s.
“I’ve watched my Sabrina Solomon care for animals her entire life with an incredible level of compassion and responsibility. She’s worked with horses, raised cats and dogs, and even helped nurse abandoned kittens back to health. Animals seem to sense her gentle, patient nature—whether she’s meeting a nervous rescue dog or comforting a shy cat. She doesn’t just care for animals; she connects with them. Her experience handling pets of all temperaments and needs has made her confident, calm, and attentive. I would trust her with any pet, knowing they’ll be loved, safe, and well cared for. If you’re looking for someone who truly treats your animals like family, she’s the one.”
