About: Hi, I’m Michael! Here is a little bit about me that hopefully will help you get to know me and trust me with the care of your pets. I have been taking care of animals for 13 years of my life. Those 13 years of experience include taking care of my own dogs, working at a doggy daycare, and also working in vet offices in my hometown, as well as working as a veterinary technician. I have dedicated a huge part of my life to caring for animals, so I understand what needs to be done to take care of them best! I am trustworthy, reliable, genuine, hardworking, and caring. Your pets and getting them the care that they deserves are my top priority. There is no job that is too big or small for me to do and I am here to meet you and your pet’s needs. I really hope this helped you to get to know me a little more and that it helps you feel comfortable with me watching and caring for your pets. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to me. I am constantly taking care of pets, whether it's at my own 2 dogs at home, the pets of family members, or the pets of friends. I understand the need to have a set routine and general flow of care. I will be available to take care of your pets on the weekdays and the weekends when I am not at work. In your home, I will make your pets feel as at ease at they possibly can be. I am in their space and I want them to be able to get the same amount of care as usual.
“Matt has been amazing! He’s trustworthy and my dog absolutely loves him. He is flexible and always willing to accommodate to my changing schedule. He also takes the best pictures. I would highly recommend him to walk your dog and I will definitely be using him again in the future!”
“Jacquelyn took our dog Ruby on walks this past week and it worked out so well. She was always on time and provided nice updates. Definitely recommend.”
“Myleigh was able to come within a hour of my request for dog walking which was incredibly helpful. I needed someone to come for a day and a half and Myleigh was available and on time each time, even in the rain. Very nice, Molly loved walking with her!”
“Jesse is great, reliable and Rowdy looks so happy in the pictures!”
About: I’ve been a pet parent to my dog Stella for 5 years! I love being a dog parent and make sure to give her the best dog life. I also grew up with dogs during my childhood. I work from home and go on long walks with Stella 2-3x day. I’ve had Stella for 5 years so I’m used to working my schedule around her and being flexible. I have a big yard that I can let dogs out for potty breaks or some nice sun bathing! I also let Stella on our furniture and she would be happy to share her favorite spots on the couch.
“Diane was AWESOME! My dog loved her and he is pretty shy. She walked him twice a day for a week while he stayed with my mom while I honeymooned. My mom said she was super reliable and communicative. She provided updates and pictures, which was so reassuring. We will definitely work with her again next time we need pet services. 10/10 recommend 🤩 Thanks Diane!!!”
“Chase was terrific with Bella! He came exactly when he said he would and gave Bella walks and ball tosses. Bella was so happy when she saw him. Extremely dependable and great with dogs. I definitely will be using Chase again for dog walking. Highly recommend.”
About: Hello! I'm Annie, and I run a local premium pet care service with my partner Robbie. I've been professionally pet- and house-sitting since 2018, though animals have always been a part of my life. I have experience with dogs of all sizes (1–85 lbs), including senior pets, pets with special needs, and those requiring medication or specialized care. Whether it’s using a crate, leash, or harness—your pet’s safety is always my top priority. You’ll notice that your pet(s) warm up to me quickly—animals tend to sense my calm, nurturing presence and years of hands-on experience. I genuinely love what I do and feel honored every time I’m trusted with such an important member of your family. I send regular photo updates during my stay so you can always feel connected and reassured. Important Note (Please Read): Moving forward, I only work with families who are comfortable with my baby daughter joining me for all pet care services. My partner, Robbie, also joins me for all overnight stays. Because of this, it’s essential that any pets I care for are well-socialized and comfortable around children and new adults. If your pet(s) have any history of reactivity or discomfort around babies, children, or unfamiliar people, I kindly ask that we do not move forward with services—safety comes first for everyone involved. What to Expect: I typically start with a quick phone call to go over the basics. If it feels like a good fit, we then set up a meet-and-greet with your pet(s) to ensure compatibility and go over all important details (house rules, routines, medical needs, vet contacts, favorite activities, and more). These consultations usually last about 30 minutes. My goal is to make sure your pet(s) feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away—and that you feel peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. Looking forward to meeting your furry family! I run an online business with a flexible schedule, which allows me to prioritize pet care in a consistent and dependable way. I’m typically never away from the home for more than 4–5 hours at a time, and I always communicate clearly about my availability before booking. As a new mom, I will have my baby daughter with me during all pet care visits and house sitting stays. Because of this, I only work with pets who are well-socialized and comfortable around infants. When house sitting, I keep my schedule light so I can focus on your pet’s needs and provide a calm, loving environment. Pet care is not just a side gig—it’s something I love and integrate thoughtfully into my week. I work with dogs ranging from 1-85 pounds and have experience with senior pets, special needs pets, and giving medications. I am comfortable using a crate, leash, and harness for your pets safety. I ask that any specific rules in regards to safety be discussed during out meet and greet.
“Janie was great. Always showed up and my dogs have a great time with her!”
About: We are a dog/cat family who welcomes all dogs who are good with children, other pets, and our 3-year-old rescue girl Luna! She is a love and would really like to make some friends. I currently work from home and have flexible hours during the week. My weekends are dedicating to being a cheer/soccer/basketball/dance mom, which makes me a professional time juggler! I keep my pet on a leash at all times unless in an area where she is safe to run without being a "flight risk".
