“Jennifer was great with Merle! She was available right away when I found out I needed a dog walker and responded within minutes. She was literally there within an hour. I really appreciate her being accommodating and taking my furbaby for a walk on such short notice. He had a great time and she sent me cute pictures of him on campus :)”

About: I have cared for dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities for over four years, including puppies, seniors, and pets with special needs. Growing up with three dogs and three cats, I developed a deep understanding of animal behavior and needs. I’m skilled in walking, feeding, bathing, administering medication, and providing enrichment activities to keep pets happy and healthy. My experience extends to both energetic breeds and more relaxed companions, ensuring they receive the right balance of exercise, care, and affection. I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of time to provide attentive care for your pets. I’m available for boarding on weekends and weekdays after 2 PM, with flexible hours to accommodate early mornings or late evenings when needed. Your pets will have my full attention, whether it’s for a short walk, extended playtime, or overnight stays. I have a secure fenced yard and two friendly, well-socialized dogs to keep your pet company. My home is pet-proofed, with safe spaces for both active play and rest. I can easily crate your dog upon request, follow any special feeding or medication instructions, and maintain constant supervision to ensure their safety. Cleanliness, comfort, and a loving environment are my top priorities.

About: I am not afraid to give medications, I walk as long as the client desires, I don't cut corners with the care I offer. I make my clients' schedules my priority. Pet-sitting is a full-time passion for me. My schedule is basically open. Filling my time with pet- and house- care also fills my heart. This is what I love, helping people and the animals in their lives. I get all the vet and emergency info when I first meet the client. I ask about plant care, mail retrieval, the pets' typical schedule, and locations of important and necessary items for the animals' care. I take care of things the way I would want my own house and pets taken care of.

“Sam was great with my shy girl and she is already pretty comfortable with her. That is unusual, because Gracie takes a long time to trust people.
