About: I am a professional handler and groomer. I have 5 years experience working at and managing a doggie daycare/boarding/training/grooming resort. I teach obedience classes and hold a puppy kindergarten class. I have owned multiple dogs and cats my whole life. I also have experience with lizards, bunnies, and other small critters My schedule is pretty open. Check my calendar for availability. I own a pet care busines, so this is what I do 7 days a week. I would consider myself to be a very responsible and trustworthy person. The safety and wellness of your pets are my #1 priority. I always make sure that all doors are closed and locked when coming and going and that all items that could potentially be of danger are away from reach. I own and operate a pet care business full time and offer a wide variety of services out of my home or I can travel to you. We are a very active family and enjoy getting outside. My 2 boys love to involved and are very gentle and playful. I take the dogs outside for frequent potty breaks and go for 2 long walks. One in the morning and one in the evening. I do enjoy taking the dogs to the state park if the weather is nice. I also have access to a doggy daycare after hours and take the dogs there so they can run and play for a few hours.

I maintain a safe and minimalist environment that provides ample space for your cats or dogs to play. Additionally, I can rearrange the areas in various configurations to meet your pets' needs.
“We had never used Liliana before, but we were really happy with how everything went. She was very professional from the start and took the time to meet with us and the cats ahead of the visits, which immediately made us feel comfortable. She was thorough during each drop-in and handled everything we asked for without any issues. Her updates were thoughtful and detailed, and we really appreciated the photos and notes about how the cats were doing each time she stopped by. Overall, it was a great experience. We felt confident leaving our cats in her care and would definitely use her again in the future.”


“Diana is fantastic! She jumped right in to help me with my new puppy for about two weeks now and we’ve a few more on the books. She gone above and beyond to help my take care of and start training my puppy! She’s timely and very communicative. SO thankful for her!!”

About: i have been around animals my whole life and have experience caring for dogs of different sizes and personalities. i previously owned an australian shepherd, so i’m very familiar with high energy dogs, keeping up with routines, walks, playtime, and making sure they get plenty of attention and stimulation. i’ve also owned rabbits before, which gave me experience caring for smaller animals and being attentive to different needs and temperaments. while i haven’t personally owned a cat yet, i’ve spent a lot of time around my sister’s cats and helping care for them as well. animals have always naturally gravitated toward me, and i’ve always been someone friends and family trust around their pets. i’m very patient, reliable, gentle, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making them feel comfortable and cared for. i currently have a very flexible schedule, so i’m available for daytime drop ins, walks, and pet sitting throughout the week. i’m able to plan my schedule around bookings and always do my best to be dependable, communicative, and accommodating to both pets and owners’ needs when caring for pets in a client’s home, i always make safety a priority for both the pet and the home itself. i pay close attention to routines, instructions, doors, gates, leashes, feeding directions, and making sure pets stay in safe environments at all times. if a yard is fenced, i still keep a close eye on pets while they’re outside and make sure everything is secure before letting them out. i’m very calm and confident around animals, and i think that helps them warm up to me quickly and feel comfortable. i’m patient, attentive, and always try to build trust with pets while making sure they feel safe, cared for, and stress-free while their owner is away.
About: I have always enjoyed spending my time with animals. I got my first dog when I was in elementary school - sadly he recently passed away - but since coming to college I have been missing my sweet fur baby. Being able to play with and care for someone else's pet while also earning extra cash would be an ideal job experience for me. Getting a new pet really isn’t an option for me right now. With all the free time on my hands, and I would love to get the chance to spend it walking and playing with your fur babies! In the past, I have dog sat for other friends and family and I really enjoyed it and having the extra company is always a plus!
“Emily has taken care of our cats twice. She was great at taking pictures and taking care of our kitties - even when one of them scratched her. She communicates clearly with us before booking and during the visits. I do recommend.”

“Jennifer was great! I hadn't followed up with her regarding access to Legend but yet she remained diligent regarding gaining access to him. I also appreciated her willingness to work with Legend. Being that he is a pit bull that can be intimidating to most but she took on the challenge. Thank you again Jennifer! I hope to book you in the future.”

“Madison did an amazing job taking care of our cats while we were out of town. She is kind, respectful, responsive and responsible! She sent pictures and updates and even brought in our packages. My cats were well taken care of and the litter box was obviously thoroughly cleaned each time.”

About: I have been surrounded by animals my whole life, and through those years they interest me more and more. I had/have multiple cats and dogs, and the connection with them has been something I couldn’t imagine not experiencing. Plus, the knowledge I have gained from being around familiar animals makes me feel I would love experiencing new things with other pets, and get to know their unique personalities. With that being said, I am open to almost any training/service necessary for your dog(s) or cat(s) needs and would love to get to know your fuzzy family! I’ve just started school, and my classes are every weekday from 5:30 pm to 10 pm, just so you’re aware if that contradicts any booking requirements you need. I have my own pets to take care of, but other than that I don’t have consistent routines that would get in the way of the times and dates I’m available. For drop-ins, I will do feedings, outdoor/potty time, and get to know your pet(s). If there’s any questions or other service not noted that you’d like to ask I can do, I would be happy to answer. Walks- I do at least 15 minute walks, and up to 90 minute walks. More characterized questions, such as walking area or what certain necessities your pet(s) needs can be discussed once I have contact/a schedule with you.
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life. I have experience with diabetic dogs. Dogs that need medicine. Special needs dogs. I love to play with them, walk them and I will treat them as my own. We raise horses so I have a lot of experience where you have to pay close attention so I would notice if something is off with you dog and I would address it immediately. I’m retired so you would not have to worry about your dog or cat. I would walk, brush, and play with your dog or cat. I would take care of your animal as my own at your home. I would make sure they are loved like my own. If they have special needs or need shots, medicine or anything extra you can feel safe with me.
“Cole is an incredible and responsible dog sitter that I can trust my pets with. My dogs are very nervous and need some time to adjust to people, especially men, but Cole has went the extra mile to make sure my dogs feel happy and are properly cared for when I can’t be there. He is always quick to respond, easy to work with, and gentle with all my animals. You can tell he truly loves animals and and he has been nothing but kind and professional. If you feel nervous about getting a pet sitter, I would definitely consider contacting Cole for your needs. Thank you Cole for being so good to my Rudy, Po and Beano!”

“Chelsea is top notch! She was available for us last minute and exceeded our expectations. She was great with communication and even sent us adorable photos of our pup to ensure he was well taken care of. We will definitely be returning to her for our future needs!”


About: I’m very active, I Love dogs! I am looking forward to having so much fun with various doggies! I know how to train with simple tricks as well! I have a flexible schedule and small car seat for my car, I have a kennel, carrier, and dog seat cover for the larger dogs and I don’t mind them in my car if need be! I’ve owned numerous pets all my life and love interacting with them, I will treat them like my own! I currently have one Chihuahua, however I will be getting another dog soon, I work at home so I have plenty of time for them! I can work with you as needed! I work part-time as a bus driver so I am available for my pet sitting after 9 am and I am gone just a few hours in the afternoon, I am home all evening and midday. Dog park at my complex, sidewalks for walking, close to pet store and have a clean environment in my home, I enjoy taking dogs on car rides as well.
About: I had a 100 lb mastiff all 8 years of his life on earth and trained him extensively. He walked well on a leash but even when he developed leash aggression later on in life and he pulled I had the strength to contain him. I'm very used to extra large breeds and love them dearly! I also potty trained and crate trained him as a puppy. I am a self-employed wedding photographer that works from home and only works seasonally so I'm very flexible! I have two kittens at home so caring at the client's home is ideal unless the dog is cat-friendly. :) I have a fenced in yard. Whether I am in my home or the client's home, I love walking with dogs and miss it so much since my dog died last June. It brings me joy to give dogs the exercise they need and stay healthy myself in the process!
