About: I stand out because of my reliability, attention to detail, and experience caring for pets of all sizes. As a homeowner, I understand the importance of trust and security. I provide personalized care, whether it’s maintaining feeding schedules, giving companionship, or taking long walks. I’m also experienced in handling energetic pets and senior animals, ensuring they feel comfortable and safe. Happy Pets, Happy Owners! Tail-Wagging care while you're away. I’m highly dependable, organized, and communicative—so you can have peace of mind knowing that your home will be in great hands as well. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine. I’m available on all week days and weekends. This flexibility allows me to provide attentive care, whether it’s daily walks, check-ins, or overnight stays. I prioritize each pet’s needs and schedule to ensure they get the attention and exercise they deserve. Owners can count on me to be reliable, responsive, and dedicated to their pet’s well-being.

About: I am very conscientious and caring. I have owned and cared for a lot of different animals. I will put your mind at ease and will work with you for the top quality care of your pet. I have a wide open daily schedule. I am an early riser and very flexible to meet your needs. I have a horse I visit and want to fill the rest of my time helping others with pet care. I have experienced firsthand how hard it is to get someone you can trust to look after your furry family and realize it is a need in the community. I currently work with my own two dogs every day to ensure they get the exercise needed and make their dog food from scratch so they remain healthy. I understand that your pet needs interaction and breaks from being by themselves while you are away. Commercial pet boarding just doesn’t cut it and takes them out of their safe familiar environment. Raising their stress levels. They don’t need that in your absence. I can take that stress away and make some friends in the process.

Sam E.
“So trustworthy! My dog loves Sam and Brad. I have used both of them to pet sit for us when we were out of town several times and it was easy to verify that they did exactly what I asked and my Vizsla loved being with them. They walked him, fed him, dispensed his medication and played with him. I felt very comfortable leaving Dakota because I knew he was being well cared for. I highly recommend either and both of of them to care for your pets.”
