“Rebecca was great! She put up with my very clingy dog and gave her lots of snuggles and attention. ❤️ Great communication and overall wonderful experience. Will be booking with her again!”

About: Hi my name is Ashley and I offer more than just a walk or drop in; I provide hands-on experience with a wide variety of breeds and temperaments through volunteering, fostering, and having my own dog. I am comfortable with high-energy puppies to seniors requiring a gentle touch, and I understand that every dog has a unique personality and specific needs. I have an understanding of a dogs body language and behavior. I can anticipate the needs and manage reactivity, making sure your dog is in a stress-free environment. I am physically capable and experienced in handling large, powerful breeds. Whether your dog is a puller or not I have the strength and technique to keep them safe and happy. I tailor my interactions based on whether your dog is anxious, timid, or over-excited. I treat every dog Im with like they are my own with love and respect. I believe its very important for the animal to trust me and the owner. I am a stay at home mom and love being around animals. My availability is open to your specific needs. I always try to assist anyone even on short notice. Caring for your pet in your home is something I take very seriously. Since it involves entering your residence and taking over the responsibility for your pet, I believe that having a trusting relationship with the pet and owner is crucial. I always like to have a meet and greet this way we see how the your pet reacts to me and it gives me the chance to learn your routine.
About: I have lived with dogs my whole life. I have a dog named Romeo who is 4 years old. I have learned that dogs deserve patience and quality time, of course love. I have watched others dogs, family and friends, and they have always been happy with the outcome. I have experience in cleaning, playing, feeding the right amount of food, and caring. I have 2 part time jobs! Currently, my one job is on weekdays in the mornings to mid afternoon (ranges from 8am-2) and my other job is consistently on Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays from 5:30 to close. My first job tends to not schedule me as much so I have more leeway with my morning schedules. Sundays I have church at 11am to 12pm. My household has 3 Dogs, including a fenced in yard. When I let them go out to use the bathroom, I will stand outside to make sure they get inside safely. Around their dinner time, one of our dogs has a separate food bag because he has food sensitivities so I make sure to separate their food and give them a specific amount of food that is good for them. I will play with them all the time, give them love and treats, and make sure they are content. (I will be the only caretaker, no one else in my household will be accompanying me!)
About: I bring hands-on, real-world experience from working at a professional dog daycare called Fetch, where I regularly supervised groups of 17–20 dogs at once. This taught me how to read canine body language, manage group play safely, and ensure every dog feels comfortable and enriched. Beyond daycare work, I’ve also done individual dog walking and spent time volunteering at local shelters, where I walked dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. These experiences have helped me build patience, confidence, and strong handling skills. Whether your dog is playful, shy, high-energy, or needs a little extra reassurance, I’m committed to creating a safe, positive, and fun experience for them. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because I dedicate Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays entirely to it. I treat pet care like a full-time responsibility on those days, making sure I have plenty of time for walks, play, feedings, and attention. When I’m caring for someone’s pet, they become my priority, and I make sure their routine is followed and their needs are fully met. In my own home, I’ve cared for my dog since he was a puppy—we started with crate training and now he enjoys playtime in our fenced yard and daily walks. Because of that experience, I’m comfortable with different routines and training styles. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m very flexible and always follow the routine their dog is used to. Whether that means crate time, specific walking schedules, certain feeding instructions, or favorite play activities, I make sure to care for their pet the same way they would. My goal is to keep each dog comfortable, safe, and happy by sticking to what feels familiar to them.
“Abigail was amazing with my dog and two cats. They are a lot to handle (a lot a lot) and she was flawless with adapting to their lifestyles and making them feel right at home - I honestly think my lab likes her more than me now. She was also responsive and communicated frequently to keep me updated with the happenings. I’d highly recommend her for any sitting needs and will definitely be working with her again in the near future.”

I am currently not in the position to bring pets into my own home.
“This is the second time we used Melissa for our two dogs. She does a phenomenal job and I can tell our dogs were well taken care of for the week that we were away. She sent pictures at least once a day and communicated with us often. We will definitely be using her again!”
“Nicole was diligent in caring for our dog and bought him a couple of new toys that he loves! She was cheerful and exhibited a great ability in being able to manage his rambunctious behaviors from the very first day. We appreciated her dependability and punctuality.”

“Absolutely fantastic! I have a senior German shepherd with mobility issues and medications galore and a husky mix. She was able to take care of both of them and sent pics/updates through my time away. I’m always nervous about leaving my dogs so I really appreciated her sending those pics. Great sitter!!”
“We have had Patricia close to a dozen times now house sit for both our dogs over the last 5 years. She is very attentive to both of them and communicates with us throughout her stay. Our one dog has body handling issues and she has been able to build up his trust. We don't trust anyone else to stay with our puppies as much as we do with her!”


“Jason was awesome. Great with updates. Super communicative. I demand a lot for the 13 pound furry man in my life and Jason made it all work even with a schedule that wasn’t the easiest.”

My experience includes training puppies and young adult dogs, dog sitting and walking, and nursing sick dogs back to health. I’m patient, attentive, and treat every dog like family. I currently have a very open and flexible schedule, which allows me to give your pup plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m available for boarding, house sitting, drop-ins, and walks, and I’m home most of the time to supervise, play, and care for your dog. Your pup will never be left alone for long and will receive consistent care and attention.

Kayla stayed at my house for 10 nights while we were on vacation. She is absolutely wonderful!!! She provided me with regular updates and pictures and made it easier on me to be away from my boy knowing that he was happy and being well cared for. I would whole heartedly recommend Kayla and will definitely use her service again in the future. Thanks Kayla!!!
