“They were fantastic! They took care of our baby who is a special-needs dog and made sure he was taking care of and he fell in love with them! In fact, it seems like he wanted to keep them and not us! Lol thank you so much! That’s what we wanted; someone to love our baby like we love on him.”


“Five star rating!! Logan Grace took such good care of our six fur babies, while we vacationed. We knew after our meet and greet that we wouldn’t have to worry about leaving them in her care. She was very attentive and responsive to all of their needs, even taking notes! She went above and beyond, not only to feed and clean out liter boxes twice a day, but played with them all, as well!! We really were able to relax, knowing that she was there through the night with them. We so appreciated all the pictures of them and her texts to keep us up to date on how they were doing. Our six kitties love their new Nanny, Logan Grace, and so do we!!!”


“Greer stayed at our house for a week and a half while we were on vacation with our sweet pup. She sent lots of picture and updates and we could tell that our pup was having a great time with her. The house was in perfect shape when we got home too. I highly recommend Greer and we will certainly be reaching out to her the next time we are out of town. Thanks again!”


About: I’ve been in the emergency vet field for over a year and a half now with experience in handling emergency situations, aggressive animals & administering medication. I’ve taken care of dogs since i was 18, from my own who now needs seizure needs daily, to my family dog who was paralyzed and needed to be expressed daily. Dogs are my life & I want the opportunity to help others in any way I can. When i’m not at work I am usually at my house. I work 3 days out of the week from 7-7 (the days vary) but i am always available before or after those hours. I will spend most of my time snuggled up with your baby as i am mine in my free time. I have experience with administering medicine and taking care of special needs animals.


“We had Lyn come and house sit/dog sit while we were on vacation. When she first came to meet Jax he took to her instantly. I sent detailed notes about his personality, walks and mealtimes for her to make it easy to care for him. Unfortunately we had to return home early due to a hurricane. Lyn was understanding and flexible when it came to modifying the booking for us early. Lyn took great care of our home and our dog Jax. Will definitely book again!”


About: I have extensive experience caring for dogs ranging from 8 weeks to 8 years old. I currently have a household of three dogs—a wolf-dog mix, a pit mix, and a poodle—so I’m well-versed in handling different breeds, personalities, and energy levels. I’ve worked on socializing my poodle, assisted with behavioral training for my mom’s doodle, and have hands-on grooming experience with both my own dogs and others. Beyond just pet care, I’m deeply committed to helping the dog community. Over the past two years, I’ve rescued and safely rehomed multiple dogs, and my long-term goal is to open a dog rescue after graduating. In the meantime, I’m dedicated to providing the best care possible for every pup I meet. Whether your dog needs exercise, companionship, or special attention, I’m here to help! My schedule is currently very flexible, allowing me to provide pet care full-time as I build my clientele. Whether you need early morning walks, midday check-ins, or overnight care, I’m happy to accommodate your pet’s needs. I’m available on short notice and can adjust my schedule to fit your routine. My goal is to provide reliable, dedicated care for your furry friend whenever you need it! Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. With experience handling multiple breeds, I understand the importance of creating a secure and stress-free environment. I carefully follow any special instructions regarding feeding, medication, crating or behavior needs and always prioritize positive reinforcement. I also have experience socializing and training dogs, ensuring they feel comfortable in different situations. Whether your pet needs a structured routine or just lots of love and attention, I provide a safe and caring space. You can trust that your furry friend will be treated like family while in my care!

“Kaylee is super sweet and she made me feel at ease while we were out of town! She went above and beyond vacuuming the endless dirt and hair our 3 German shepherds bring inside while our backyard is under construction. I highly recommend her to love on your pets while you’re away!”


“Kd is the absolute best!!!! My pup adores her and she gives my pet the best belly rubs. She is 100% dependable and sent plenty of pictures of my sweet baby. She kept me up to date about what was going on and my pup seemed so happy. I would recommend her to anyone. She is kind and friendly and super caring. She did a fabulous job and I I will most definitely use her again. You cannot go wrong with Kd. She is amazing.”


“Tasha did a wonderful job of watching my 4 fur babies for a week. She is a calm and genuinely sweet, caring person. I felt completely at ease knowing such a true dog lover was staying with my babies while I was out of town. She provided me daily updates complete with pictures. She left my home exactly as she found it. I would highly recommend her.”


About: Hello everyone! I have a passion for animals and children because I feel like they are the most vulnerable members of society and should be treated with respect. I’ve been in the pet care industry ever since I was a Junior in Highschool. When my mother and I lived in Germany, I would watch her teacher friend’s animals, and do house sitting if they left for vacations. The services I provided at that time were dog walking, medicine administration, and dog boarding. I have been a teacher’s assistant in a Special Needs classroom (2nd grade-5th grade) and worked at a Montessori School for a few months. So caring is one of my expertise.” I am currently a college student, but due to all of my classes being virtual I have a lot more flexibility than I would usually. I am available at nights and in the afternoon after 1pm because majority of my classes are in the AM. Some weekends are negotiable. **i take payments through Apple Pay, PayPal, or Venmo we can work something out. I’m currently a part time student so I have a flexible schedule to watch your puppies! If drop off is during the week let me know in advance what time. Open weekend Availability! I have a fenced yard for your dog to play and have fun in! I am also 15 minutes away from a park that we can go to. If your dog uses a crate, I am trained on that as well.

“Morgan was awesome! She was so sweet and easy going. We ended up being gone longer than expected and she stayed longer than she had too and it was so much appreciated. Our doxies loved her and even whined when she left. We will definitely use Morgan again!!”


“Very easy to work with, communicated quickly with me, and the dogs seemed happy and worn out when I got home. Plus the house looked good.”


About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have always had a deep love for their care and well-being. I worked in a veterinary clinic for nearly two years, where I gained hands-on experience with animals of all ages—from playful puppies to sweet senior pets. I’m currently a veterinary student at Tuskegee University, so I bring both professional training and real-world experience to every pet I care for. I’m confident in administering medications, monitoring health needs, and making sure your furry family member feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. As a veterinary student, I’ve built a routine that’s structured yet flexible enough to include pet care. Most of my classes are in the mornings and early afternoons, with free time in the evenings and weekends. I also have long breaks between classes on certain days and a lighter schedule on Fridays. This allows me to provide attentive, consistent care—whether it’s walks, check-ins, or overnight stays. I’m reliable, responsive, and passionate about making sure your pet feels safe and loved while you’re away. When caring for pets in my home, safety and comfort come first. I have a securely fenced yard with cameras for supervised outdoor playtime, and pets get at least 30 minutes of exercise and enrichment outside at least 2-3 times each day. I share my home with two friendly pets, but visiting animals are never left unsupervised with them—I always monitor all interactions carefully. I also have a large crate available if a pet needs their own space or downtime. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or at a client’s, I aim to provide a calm, structured, and loving environment where every animal feels safe and at ease.

About: Animals have been a part of my heart and home for as long as I can remember! I cherish every moment spent caring for, playing with, and connecting with pets of all kinds—whether they have fur, scales, feathers, or even tiny legs! From dogs and cats to snakes and lizards (yes, even bugs!), I believe every creature deserves love, respect, and the absolute best care. I’m the proud mom of two senior dachshunds, Buddy (15) and Casey (13), who have been my world since birth. I understand the deep bond we share with our pets, and I care for every animal as if they were my own. Whether it’s feeding, walking, administering medication, or simply giving them belly rubs and playtime, I ensure each pet gets the attention, love, and care they need. I also specialize in accommodating special requests and needs—so whether your pet requires extra patience, specific routines, or special care, I’m here to help. A Little About Me: I work full-time in healthcare, but my passion for animals keeps me available before and after work, as well as on weekends. I’m happy to make special arrangements to fit your schedule! Tailored In-Home Care for Your Furry (or Scaly) Friends I come to you, providing care in the comfort of your pet’s familiar surroundings, following your exact instructions and preferences. Your peace of mind is my priority! Let’s chat about how I can help care for your beloved pets—because they deserve nothing but the best! I work full time in health care - I am available before work and after as well as weekends. I am currently not available to provide care during weekdays between 8am-5pm as I work full time during the week. I will provide care in your home according to your specific wants and needs. Please let me know if there are any special requests and I am happy to help.
