“Josephine was a fantastic sitter for our 6 pound Maltese. She stayed in our home with our dog for the week and left the house clean and tidy. We received multiple pictures daily and we could see that our dog was very happy. We will definitely be using Josephine in our future as she is trustworthy, kind and very caring.”

“Brady was PHENOMENAL with my pack of 4 doggos! He sent updates, and asked questions, which made me feel more than comfortable! 10/10 would recommend, and we’ll be using him again in the future!”

About: I have taken care of all kinds of animals. I worked at the Beresford Vet Clinic as a kennel tech. I would take out dogs and play with them twice daily. I made sure they had clean water and were feed. I also gave many dogs meds correctly and on time. I would clean up after all accidents and learned to read different dog's behavior. I currently work part time and have lots of time during the day. Before and after I work and on days that I have time off. I feel confident reading your animal's behavior and taking care of their specific needs. I have worked at two vet clinics and have learned how to promptly handle animals and I'm not worried about cleaning up any messes.
About: As far back as I can remember, my family always had at least one dog/cat Each one of them holding a special place in my heart. I, now, am a proud dog parent of two Blue Heelers, Izzy and Brutus. I love every kind of dog and cat. I have experience with elder dog care and puppy care. I'm currently working full-time so my availability is limited for now. I am available on Sundays and Mondays for now. I work evenings, however, so if you live nearby, I can be available before work. I would make sure to have clear and open conversations with you about your animals throughout the day/night. I can give updates on when they go to the bathroom. I can, also, send pictures of them.
“Melissa was wonderful. She sent pics and videos throughout the day. It was first time leaving my fur baby and she made it a great experience. Definitely would recommend her.”

About: I have lived with and taken care of numerous animals in my life. Growing up on a farm gave me a love for animals and taught me how to properly care for them. I grew up living with cats, horses, dogs, etc. I currently have one cat named Blaze who is a part of the family. Due to Blaze being intolerant to dogs I will not be offering any in-home dog sitting services. I will be more than happy to take care of your family through drop-in playtime, walks, or overnight stays depending on your needs. I am currently enrolled at the local university pursuing a major in architecture. Through my career of personal aid visiting different families in need, I have become familiar with the neighborhoods around town as well as the parks you may want your pet to visit. I am looking forward to meeting you and your family. I currently work on the weekend, and I also attend college. This frees up a lot of my time during the week. I love helping out others and seeing the animals in our community. As mentioned I have one cat, he loves to engage in chase and will either chase me or a Lazer pointer. I will meet all of you requirements as well as provide cuddles and play.
About: Hello, My name is Taylor and I love dogs and have grown up with them my entire life. I am comfortable caring for them in your home or bringing them to mine. I enjoy walking and helping with training while dog sitting. I am comfortable with small and larger dogs breeds as I grew up with cocker spaniels and labs. I couldn't resist anymore and got my own dog in August! He is a very spoiled toy Australian shepherd. I would love to share my love for dogs with your pet while dog sitting and caring for your pet. I have volunteered at a local dog shelter for the past two years and have lots of experience working with many different breeds, ages and types of dogs. If you have any questions or are interested in working with me please feel free to message me. My schedule is pretty flexible and I am open to working around your schedule as well.
About: Leash up! New clients welcome—let’s walk and wag! 🐾 Hi there! I’m Breanna—a lifelong animal lover raised on a farm, where caring for animals was second nature. I’m a nurse and now a stay-at-home mom who finds deep joy in looking after all kinds of pets and animals. When I’m with your dog, I don’t just walk or watch—I engage. I incorporate light training to reinforce good behavior, and I love taking candid, high-quality photos that my clients always rave about. The pictures are often their favorite part! Plus, I like to bring fresh carrots from my garden for treats and no matter what I make sure there is always fresh water in their bowl! With a flexible schedule, I’m able to offer reliable, attentive care tailored to your pet’s needs—whether that’s dogs, cats, birds, fish, or just about any animal needing love and support. Have a pet with special needs? I’ve got experience there too. I cared for our 6.5 yo Saint Bernard with severe medical needs for many years and I’m comfortable working with animals who require extra patience and understanding. Being a nurse has made me very attentive to animals needs! I know they’re your babies—because mine are too. They can’t tell us what they need, so it’s our job to show up with love, patience, and care they can feel. Can’t wait to hear from you! I have a very wide open schedule seven days a week to help care for your pet. Walking is such a necessity for my life and I find that this schedule fits perfectly into that! Here to help! 🤲🏼 We live on a third acre lot in town with a large wooden fence, dogs live inside, but enjoy the outdoors in the backyard. In order to stay at our home, I will be very particular to the dog because it is important for my dogs (Thunder & Murray.) I would love to establish a small cliental of individuals that are comfortable bringing the furbaby to our house for the consistency of everyone.
