About: I have experience with dogs of all kinds. One thing that separates myself from other dog walkers is that I treat each pet how I would treat my own and I treat my own like my kids. My goal is to provide the same care for your dogs as I expect for mine. Pet care is a major part of my daily and weekly routine since I own a dog walking/sitting business. I am almost always available to meet my clients needs for their furry companions. The only times when I am not available is when I am coaching basketball. Unfortunately, I do not care for pets at my home. However, when caring for pets in your home I will keep them on the exact routine as they are accustomed to to make them as comfortable as possible.

About: I have been taking care of animals since I was 14. I would walk the neighborhood animals and care for them when my neighbors were out of town. Since I have moved on my own I do in house daycare and care for my friends animals when they are out of town. I also walk their dogs if they have long days of work so they don’t have to worry and the animals needs are met I work from home so I am there all day and able to let them out as many times as they need as well as take them on walks. I have a fenced in back yard and a very friendly dog that can keep yours company. I also can crate the pets if that if your preference and help with crate training so they don’t come out of routine

“Highly recommend Debbie! She was so good with our pup. She posted pictures every visit so we could see her while we were gone. She was very quick on responding and a great communicator. We will definitely be using her again!”


“Harley seemed to have a good visit with Hannah! It was a semi-long day for Harley in the crate, but he was still tired for bed which means he must of had a good energy release when Hannah visited.”


About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to sweet senior dogs who need a little extra attention. I’m dependable, patient, and truly love building connections with every pet I care for. What sets me apart is my ability to quickly understand each pet’s personality and needs—whether that’s sticking to a strict feeding schedule, giving medications, or just spending quality time with lots of love and play. I treat every pet like family and always make sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine because I already care for my own dog every day. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to be available for walks, drop-ins, or extended stays.

Being around animals is a natural and enjoyable part of my life. When caring for pets in my home or my client’s home, safety and trust are my top priorities. I always follow the pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, medication, and exercise needs. In my home, I create a clean, pet-friendly environment that’s free from hazards and full of comfort, love, and supervision. When I’m in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow their instructions carefully to make sure their pet feels safe and secure in their familiar surroundings. I take the time to build trust with every pet, offering gentle care, play, and plenty of affection so they feel at ease while you’re away.

About: You know when you walk by a dog, he starts walking towards you, trying to drag their owner towards you, and you know he just wants to say hello and be pet? My thought process is the same as the dogs every time I pass one. Nine times out of ten I will stop, ask the owner if it's alright to pet their dog, then sit and chat with them and love on the dog for a while. (And I only chat to pet the dog longer). All my life I have heard many cases of, "Don't touch my cat or he'll scratch you" or "Watch out for the dog, he growls at everyone" and before my visit is over I have the cat in my lap and the dog following me where ever I go. My fiancée calls me Dr. Doolittle.

Dallas H.
“Dallas has always loved dogs, ever since she was a little girl. Her dad and grandpa raised dogs and she loved helping to care for them. She now has two of her own and she treats them as her babies.”




Ron H.
“Ron and I were roommates for several years. Ron had a pittie and I owned a French Mastiff. Through the years of living under the same roof and both of us owning dogs, I have true first hand, day to day knowledge of just how amazing Ron is with dogs. Ron's dog Loki had possibly an allergy of some kind and I would see Ron giving Loki his meds like clock work. Ron always fed Loki quality dog food. Loki never lacked for love, attention, and was well behaved due to Ron being so diligent with him. Kind and caring. Ron earned my trust immediately and I would leave my Mastiff, Aubrey in his care. I NEVER left my Aubrey with anyone, ever. Aubrey adored him. Loki adored him. Ron was attentive to every tiny thing about Loki (and Aubrey) and so when he spotted a tiny lump on Loki, to the vets they went. Loki had cancer and he didn't waste one minute to have it removed. Ron was extremely vigilant watching over Loki (although, he obviously always did) and if there were any question or doubt, off to the vets he would go. I could not name one single person who I would trust more with my dog than Ron. Ron loves dogs with a passion that you only see in a handful of people.”


Zachery S.
“I was his roommate for about a year. He at the time had two cats, Harry and Hazel, who were well fed, well cared for and accomodated for very well. I would highly recommend”


Melissa B.

She has come over and take our dog out many times when we weren’t going to make it home in time. She is very professional and very sweet. I think she would be a great dog sitter.”


Jennifer F.

“Jennifer is great with animals! She has two cats she adores and has done a great job with my dog Zane. She is a great pet sitter and I would highly recommend her services. As someone who does Rover as well and is moving out of the area I will be referring all my clients to her.”
