About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover with 20 years of experience owning and caring for dogs (and cats) of all ages, including senior dogs and those needing a little extra TLC. I work from home and love sending daily pictures for overnight boarders to put your mind at ease so you can enjoy time away. I treat every pet like my own—and I’d be honored to care for yours! I WFH and am very fortunate to have lots of flexibility in my daily/weekly schedule, allowing me to adapt to fit your pet care needs as needed! We have a safe, quiet, clean, child-free, and pet-free home. We are fortunate to live on a walking trail and near several parks to bring dogs to enjoy. We have a fenced in patio for safe outside time in between walks. Pets are treated with love like family!

Adriane took excellent care of my little one! My girl can be nervous and a bit anxious but Adriane was able to bring her out of her shell and provide wonderful care. Will certainly use her services again.

AMAZING! Great communication, my pup loves seeing her and spending time with her and she keeps him fresh on his skills!! It's so great to have found a fellow puppy raiser-- even though Potter is no longer in training, Bridget was easily able to pick up on his foundational skills and knowledge without me telling her and it's great for Potter to be able to practice and use some of that, even if it's just to work his brain and tire him out a little more!

About: I grew up with Rottweilers and have always loved dogs of all breeds and sizes. My most recent pet was a sweet Shih Tzu who needed a little extra tender care, which taught me the importance of patience and gentle attention. Cuddling is truly my favorite part of pet care, and I will treat your furry family member with the same love, respect, and affection I’d give my own. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule—just me and my laptop! I can work on the go, which makes it easy to prioritize your pet’s needs. While I may have the occasional client call lasting up to an hour, the rest of my time is dedicated to giving your fur baby the love, attention, and care they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. In your home, I will carefully follow all rules, routines, and restrictions you provide to ensure consistency and peace of mind. In my own home, I’ve created a secure, pet-friendly environment—nothing is left out or easily accessible that pets can get into. I also have a spacious patio for supervised outdoor time, and the open layout of my apartment means your pet will always be within my line of sight.

Nicolina and Patrice helped us out while we were away on vacation by stopping by and walking our dog a few times a day. They were so kind, really cared for our pet and were very trustworthy. We will be reaching out to them in the future!

We have been working with Carol now for several weeks. We’d been looking for someone who could help walk our high energy pup during long work weeks so he wouldn’t end up alone all day. When we had a last minute cancellation, Carol came out of no where like a super hero. Safe to say, we have never looked for anyone else. Carol has loved our pup and even her name makes his tail wag. She’s always on time, always super communicative and always does an amazing job. Thanks, Carol!

About: While I have never been paid for my experience, I’ve had dogs my entire life (30+ years) and have experience with a wide range of breeds, ages, and needs. I’m comfortable caring for puppies, seniors, and high-energy dogs, as well as those who require extra attention or patience. I have hands-on experience with administering medications, including insulin for diabetic dogs, and caring for dogs with seizures and other medical needs. I understand how important it is to stay consistent with routines and closely monitor their health and behavior. While I’m not a professional trainer, I’ve participated in training classes with my own dogs and have continued that experience by recently working with my mom’s dog as well. I’m confident reinforcing basic training, structure, and positive behaviors. In addition to my own pets, I regularly pet sit for friends and family, and I’m comfortable handling a variety of personalities—from calm and laid-back to very active dogs. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, loved and well cared for. I am currently a stay at home mom with 2 children who love spending time with dogs. Because I homeschool, I have a very flexible schedule and am home most of the day, which allows me to give pets consistent attention, supervision, and care. I am also available to travel to you to care for your pets in their own environment. I am a reliable and caring animal lover who treats every pet like family. I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have experience with a wide range of breeds, ages, and personalities. I am happy to accommodate your needs whether that is caring for your pets in your home or my own. I live in an end-unit townhouse with access to plenty of fenced-in yard space for safe outdoor time and play. I have two children (ages 4 and 9) who are very gentle and love spending time with dogs. Safety, routine, and comfort are very important to me. I always supervise pets closely, follow instructions carefully, and make sure they feel secure and relaxed while in my care. I also provide updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I’m happy to care for multiple dogs at the same time when they are well-acquainted and friendly with one another. If dogs are not already familiar, I can also accommodate them separately to ensure a calm, stress-free environment for everyone.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was a kid, and it’s still one of my greatest joys. Today, I’m a proud dog mom to two pups: Roxy, my 16-year-old toy poodle with a sweet but sassy senior personality, and Pickles, our affectionate long-haired Chihuahua mix who loves everyone—dogs and people alike! Over the years, I’ve also cared for many friends’ and family members’ pets, including dogs with different temperaments and medical needs. I'm comfortable administering medications and giving each dog the attention they deserve. I love going on walks and always enjoy bringing the dogs along for fresh air and exercise. My family enjoys having a house full of furry friends. Whether your pup is playful, shy, or somewhere in between, they’ll be treated like part of the family in our home. I work from home, so when I board dogs, I am available to them all day and night. I also have my summers off, so I can make even more time for the dogs I walk or board in the summer months. In my home, safety and comfort are top priorities. I have a securely fenced yard for safe outdoor play and potty breaks, and I’ve set up gated areas inside to provide quiet or separate spaces if a dog needs downtime. I have two friendly dogs who enjoy the company of other pups, and my two children are gentle and respectful with animals—they love helping give our furry guests lots of attention and affection. I always take time to get to know each dog’s personality and needs to make sure they feel safe, loved, and at home. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or quiet space, I’m here to make their stay as stress-free and enjoyable as possible.

About: Here for your last minute doggy daycare & boarding needs! Greetings! My name is Trishelle & I look forward to meeting your furry acquaintances. I'm a dedicated and experienced small dog caregiver with over 3 years of hands-on experience providing personalized care for pups of all temperaments and energy levels. Whether it’s dog walking, drop-in visits, boarding, or doggy daycare, I treat every dog like family — because they are family. My specialty is caring for small breeds, and I understand their unique needs when it comes to exercise, attention, safety, and comfort. From daily walks and cuddle-filled playtime to stress-free overnight stays in a cozy, home-like environment, I ensure your pup feels secure, loved, and happy while you’re away. I am dependable, trustworthy, accommodating and flexible. Please inform me if your pet has specific needs such as a walking, food and allergies. I have a 2 year old miniature dachshund that is very friendly and gets along well with other dogs. We look forward to meeting you soon! Pet care is a central part of my daily life — not just a job, but a true passion woven into my routine. Each day is thoughtfully planned around the dogs I care for to ensure they get the attention, exercise, and affection they deserve. Mornings typically start with walks or breakfast for any boarding or daycare pups. Throughout the day, I schedule drop-in visits, enrichment activities, playtime, and potty breaks based on each dog's individual needs. For daycare dogs, I maintain a structured yet relaxed environment with plenty of cuddle time, short walks, and rest breaks to keep small dogs feeling safe and content. Evenings are often filled with winding down, dinner routines, and sending photo updates to pet parents. I also build in time for cleaning, prepping meals, and maintaining a calm, cozy home environment. Because I focus exclusively on small dogs, I can tailor my routine to their specific needs — whether that’s a midday walk, medication, or just sitting with a lapdog who needs some company. Pet care isn’t just something I fit into my schedule — it is my schedule, and I wouldn’t have it any other way! I care for my pets with the same love, attention, and consistency I’d want someone to give mine if I were away. That means providing a structured daily routine with regular meals, walks, playtime, and plenty of affection. I focus on creating a calm, clean, and safe environment, paying close attention to their behavior, mood, and health. Whether it’s keeping up with grooming, giving medication on schedule, or simply spending quiet time together, I make sure they feel secure, happy, and part of the family. I also believe in understanding each pet’s personality — some love to play, some just want to snuggle, and some need a little extra patience. I adjust my care to suit their needs, always leading with kindness and respect. For me, pet care isn’t just about meeting basic needs — it’s about nurturing trust and building a bond that makes every pet feel loved.
