“Isabella is amazing! We were out of state on a family vacation and it was so comforting knowing my old puggy boy was safe and being loved on the whole time.

About: I've been taking care of dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. From high-energy puppies to senior sweethearts, I treat every pet like they're my own. I'm comfortable with administering medication, handling special dietary needs, and giving extra gentle care to shy and anxious pets. If I'm caring for your pet in your home, I'm tidy, respectful, and will make sure your pet feels safe and loved in their own space. You can count on me for prompt communication, regular updates, and lots of pictures! Let's set up a meet-and-greet! I'm currently out of school for the summer, so I have plenty of time on weekdays and weekends to care for your pets! I go back to school mid-August and will continue taking on gigs on the weekends then. I'm very tidy and respectful and you can trust me to take care of your pet in your home in a safe and gentle way.
“Nikki took great care of our pups and home while we were away for a few days. She was responsive, polite, and professional. Happy to recommend her!”
“Erin is wonderful at communicating with me about my elderly dog. Mally occasionally has some G.I. upset and just need a little bit of extra attention than a healthier younger dog. Highly recommend!”
About: We’ve had dogs in the house for as long as I can remember! I’ve always loved taking care of them and enjoying their companionship. 3 years medical/senior dog experience. I have a full-time job Monday through Friday, but I am available most evenings and weekends if planned in advance! Feel free to reach out if this schedule could benefit you at all. I have a large back yard with plenty of room to run, otherwise I’m happy to travel to others’ houses to take care of whatever is needed!
