About: I have a senior small dog and have had cats & dogs my whole life! As a senior dog mama, I understand the patience and extra care needed by these and all pets and will take extra care to give your animals love and attention. I am also experienced at getting my dog to take his pills two times a day. I work from home so I am pretty flexible when it comes to times I can drop in or take your dog for a walk. I am patient and loving when it comes to animals and am especially understanding about the needs of older pets. I would welcome detailed instructions and follow client’s lead when it comes to care for their pets.

About: Provided care and enrichment for all sizes and personalities of dogs, cats, rabbits, horses and other animals. Specializing in senior, special needs and expecting animals. I'm work part-time and only need WIFI to make sure your pet gets all my attention. My focus is making your loved one is safe and enjoys our time together. I enjoy dog walks but also cuddling on the couch with your loved one. By taking detailed notes, your pet will continue their normal routine with extra engagement and enrichment making sure they are safe, secure and well cared for. I love engaging with their personalities and specializing their time with me.

About: With over a decade of pet-care experience, Im well acclimated to all kinds of furry and non-furry friends. From age 10-17, I had my own dog, and watched dogs and cats across my neighborhood. I became familiar with walking multiple dogs at once, and cat care. During college, I worked at a non-profit animal rescue, where I learned skills ranging from raising puppies from birth to adoption to administrating vaccines and medications to dogs with complex medical needs. I worked with feral dogs, weaning mothers, and dogs with a wide range of behavioral needs. I’ve lived with both cats and dogs, so I’m also familiar with the quirks of existing in a home with your furry friends! For those who have unconventional pets, I’m always open to loving on them as well. I owned three pairs of rats throughout grade school and college, and even trained them for name recall. I am an animal lover at my core, and will be your best friends advocate while caring for them! I will be working part-time, so I have plenty of time to come play with and love on your pets! I am also very active, so am very open to hikes or daily adventures if you have high-energy dogs that need extra time. For smaller friends, I am open and able to bringing them into my home, but for cats and dogs, please plan to have me come to you! I am a huge advocate for meeting animals where they are. I will ask you questions about your pet’s personality, and ensure that I’m approaching them in a way that makes them safe and comfortable. Windows and doors are always shut and monitored for those who may have high flight risk pets. I deeply care about your pet’s safety during my stay, so please communicate any additional precautions when we are finalizing pet sitting details!


“Jackson is a lifesaver with our dogs! We have a 10 mo. aus-shepherd mix with aggression and fear issues (wont allow strangers to come near us, or into the house or backyard). After a few visits with Jackson our dog is now so happy to see him each time! Jackson is one of the very few people our dog allows into our home, as well as to hang out and play with him and leash him for walks (if anyone has dealt with an aggressive dog they know the struggles, so to find someone we can count on for our pup is priceless). I would wholeheartedly recommend Jackson!”


“Such a wonderful experience - we will use Luke again! Helpful, communicative, friendly, and took great pics of the cats! TY for everything!!!”


“Daniel was great with my dog Pepper. He did a meet and greet with her prior to my trip to ensure they started out as fast friends. Pepper enjoyed her time with Daniel as easily scene in the many photos he provided. I had no concerns with him dropping in on Pepper my home and I appreciated his short-notice availability and flexibility. I hope to use Daniel again very soon.”


“Breen was lovely! He took great care of my cat and was very communicative.”


About: Very much a dog-lover; I’ve had canine companions for most of my life. I have experience with dogs of all ages as well as dogs with health conditions. I’m a nurse, so I’m comfortable administering medications if needed. I work from home, so I’m around all day to let dogs in and out of the fenced yard! Also flexible for timing of drop-offs and pick-ups. I have my own small, senior fur baby who loves visitors! That being said, we can only accommodate dogs that are friendly with other dogs. He has free access to the house, but we can also stick to any routines or rules that your pet is used to.

“Rikki was great with the details about cat care and very attentive! I felt great relief knowing that cats were in good hands with a reliable person to stop by and tend to their needs. Definitely will recommend!”
