Pet Sitting in Midville

“Bailey did an amazing job with my cats! She asked plenty of clarifying questions during the meet-n-greet and provided updates while I was gone. My cats especially appreciated that she took time to play with them when she stopped in. Even my camera-shy cat made several appearances for her. :)”

About: I love all animals, furry, feathery, and scale-y, young, old; cuddly or playful. I have experience with birds from volunteering at a parrot sanctuary; turtles and fish from previously raising them; and dogs. I have 2 rescues and a puppy, ranging from 3 to 80lbs. I am attentive to instruction and hold myself to a high standard of care and would love to meet your furry babies. I currently available everyday of the week, at all times and would be happy to take care of your fur babies and make sure they are engaged while you are away. I will care for your pet with the passion I take care of mine, but in accordance to their own routine. I'll make sure they only thing they are missing is you, and never waiting long for medicine, food, or potty breaks.

About: I have been dog sitting since I was 18 years old and became a professional dog trainer almost 10 years ago. I have experience with 1000’s of dogs of all breeds! Pet care is my full time passion! Our boarding facility is cleaned 3 times a day as cleanliness is a high priority for us. I spend all day with the dogs and they get to enjoy 20 acres full of adventures with other dogs! We relocated from to Georgia from Minnesota where we ran a full time boarding and training facility in 2022. We really love it here! I have fenced in areas and lots of dog friendly dogs to provide companionship. I also have the ability to crate or climate controlled indoor/outdoor runs should your dog not do well in a crate. It is our priority the dogs feel comfortable and safe here while having fun! Welcome to Defiant Dog Fun Zone! I am so looking forward to getting to know you and your pet(s). It is our mission that dogs can have their own enjoyable vacation while you are making the most of your own! We pride ourselves on prioritizing safe play, comfort, and understanding each individual pet’s needs. What works for one dog may not work for another, and we are committed to learning how your dog perceives joy and meeting that need. Things needed for your pet’s stay: Please provide via text or email proof of current vaccinations Enough food for their stay in airtight container Chew bones/toys for down time (optional) Medication with detailed instructions (if applicable) A few things you should know about us: We love animals of all kinds! On our 20 acres you and your pet are likely to have run ins with animals of all types and we ask that you please keep the safety of all animals in mind. The best way to do this is by having your dog leashed and under control at all times. This is our home and we hope you can respect that while we are passionate about what we do we also need, at times, to leave the property. We mostly run our business just the two of us so planning our schedule is important to everyone’s needs being met and us being able to maintain the facilities. We have found drop off and pickup windows with scheduled drop off and pickup times keep things efficient for everyone. We may be able to accommodate drop offs and pick ups outside of the allotted times should you require that, but cannot guarantee. Drop off Windows: Drop off windows allow you a guideline of what times to choose for your drop off or pickup. You will still need to schedule an exact time to pickup or drop off. We understand that life sometimes happens and ask that you communicate should you not be able to make your scheduled appointment time. If you are early/late by 15 minutes or more there will be a $30 late fee. Furthermore you run the risk that we will need to reschedule the drop off or pickup into the next window of availability. Drop-off & Pick-up Windows: (An exact time within one of the windows still needs to be scheduled in advance) Monday, Wednesday, Thursday: 7:30 AM – 10:00 AM 4:30 PM – 6:30 PM Tuesday & Saturday: By appointment only Friday: • 7:30 AM – 11:00 AM • 4:00 PM – 7:00 PM Sunday: 2:30 PM - 6:30 PM Having 10 years of experience as a professional dog trainer I am fully equipped to make sure your dog is safe and happy. Each dog is assessed for proper manners towards other dogs and paired during playtime with other dogs who match their personality and energy. Some dogs prefer to just spend time with other people, and that is okay too. All dogs are kept on leash unless in fenced areas and supervised at all times unless crates or in their secure runs.

About: I can’t remember a time without pets! We are a pet loving family! Our fur babies are very special to us! Yours will be too! I’m available any day! I’m a full time homemaker. I’d love to care for your fur baby while you’re away. I can go anytime of day to walk or check-in in your pet. I can stay at your home or your pet can stay with me. Unfortunately, we no longer have a pet. Our beloved, Lovie, passed away 2 years ago at 15 years old. However, I can care for your pet with all the love and care they require.

“Thanks so much for taking good care of my cats and for sending the notes & pictures! It is so reassuring to know they're doing well when I'm away.”

“Jordyn was wonderful! She responded quickly, was so sweet, and took great care of my doggy. I appreciated her flexibility and communication. I’d absolutely recommend her!”

About: I have been working at dog daycares including WNDP and Biscuits for a total of 5 years. I have two of my own dogs and grown up with dogs my whole life. I currently work at biscuits dog daycare in Tacoma and am looking to make a little extra cash doing what I love. I have a few days off during the week and would love spending them walking dogs. I want to make your dog feel comfortable and loved! It will make sure to create a relationship with your dog before walks. I will also bring treats and make sure they are fully leashed before exiting the house.

About: Hello, I was raised on a relatively small farm. Animals have always had a soft spot in my heart. I am really good with all kinds of animals and have a large amount of experience in pet care. Your furry family will always be safe and happy with my care. :) I would absolutely love to work with you’re fur baby any day of the week from 6:00am to 4:00pm. I may be available for later times if it has been scheduled in advance. I will always have an eye on your pets when we are outside. If a leash is to be used I never let them off until completely indoors. I am great at building trust bonds with animals, as well. You’re babies will never feel “in harm”.

“Hanna was very thoughtful. Went above and beyond in caring for our pets. Even sought them out when they hid upon her arrival and sent photos. Hope she's available next time we no need someone”

About: I’ve volunteered at shelters in Hawaii my whole life, and also I’ve worked as a groomers assistant in my aunts shop in kapolei Hawaii above the vpc (vet pet clinic) and I’ve also owned furbabies my entire life. You could say I love fur baby’s more than humans. I work full time. But someone is always home. 💗 to give love, play with, cuddle up with, refil water, and potty breaks. :) I enjoy Walking playing fetch and snuggling up on fur friends and going to the park learning new tricks. I like cuddles. Giving pups Butt rubs. I like to play outside :) and go on walks. I’d hope that you’d feel safe enough to entrust me with your fur baby’s. Because I know from a personal experience how scary it is to leave your babies with someone else, it’s like people just don’t realize it’s their whole world on four paws. Riot is the one that hung my moon. So I couldn’t imagine life without him, and I would only ever wish for him to have fun and be safe in this life. And most of Al get all the lovins he needs

About: Benji was given to me as a 17th birthday present and I was so happy to have him because I've always wanted a dog since I was 8 years old. When we got him, his previous owner was starving and kicking him; he weighed only 6 pounds and he was full of anxiety due to the abuse. After a few months with me and my family, he gained a pound and a half and was full of life! I've taken care of him for about 8 years now and he's never had any health issues in his 13 years of life! He's old but still moves and acts like a young pup! I am currently working part-time as a behavior technician, working with children on the autism spectrum and those with other behavior/developmental delays. I am available roughly 4 days out of the week during the day and I am available for 5 nights a week. My home is fenced in with about an acre and a half of land in the backyard. I will take of care of uour baby, just how I take care of mine! Benji is bathed and brushed weekly, food and water is available whenever he is hungry, he is given one bacon treat every night and playtime is roughly 30-60mins a day depending on the age, stamina, and energetic needs of the dog.

“Excellent sitter! She took great care of our babies. We would definitely recommend her! Thank you for everything.”

About: I not only have a passion in fitness, but the well being of all furry pets, especially dogs! I treat every dog as my own, because they all have a heart just like we do and need to make sure we understand their needs as a companion. I am willing to go beyond and make sure your pet remains active, and know the importance since I have a pretty healthy 11 years old pup myself! Allow me to show you that you can become comfortable and know that your dog will be in great hands, while they are gaining a friend=) This is not a job to me, but a privilege! If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know! Hope to work with you and your wonderful dog soon! I'm an Exercise Science/Psychology graduate and trainer. My line of work is organized how I schedule it to make sure I am meeting standards and delivering the proper care. IF we agree to bring your fur babies in my home I could provide great accommodations. I have a sweet dog and cat so what ever I could do to meet needs.

About: I've taken care of a multitude of dogs, big and small, since I was a little girl. I have always loved every kind of animal and love to clean and make sure things are taken care of. I am currently working part time as an administrative assistant at Topgolf, but communication is key! As long as I am given 1-2 weeks advance notice I can make myself available for you. I can easily crate your dog if needed and I am an expert at putting cats in carriers. I read animal body language very well and know when to step in and how to meet their exact needs.

“Kinsey is great! Responsible, compassionate, and mature. Appreciate her help with our Bichon while away for weekend.”

“Aries was AMAZING. She was very attentive to our pup and was prompt on responding to my messages. Anakin appreciated his morning time with Aries, and we saw that in the many photo updates she sent us. 😊🐾”

About: I love animals. I have lots of cat experience and a bit less dog experience. I love to pet sit for my friends when they go out of town and I enjoy walking dogs for my daily exercise. My favorite thing to do these days is to stay home and watch movies with my cat or my parents’ 3-legged dog. I’m very attentive to the needs of animals to include their safety, cleanliness and health. I’m a nurse and I work 12 hour shifts. This means my schedule gives me more days off during the week when compared to a 9-5 job, but my schedule is not the same each week. If we schedule pet sitting in advance, this is what I would prefer. Last minute appointments would be fine too if I am off work for the day. I’m a bit of a night owl so weird hours are fine too. I have a fenced back yard and have hosted puppies before that I was fostering for a local rescue. I have a cat so dog friendly cats are preferred if you want them to stay over at my place. I can also stay at your place if preferred. I have a car

“Andrea is amazing and kept me updated on all of her visits with our pups! She sent pictures and let us know when she was coming and going. Highly recommend her!”

About: I've had pets since I was little. We got our first dog when I was in about 4th grade. At the moment I have a Guinea pig. I've been to obedience school with my dog before so I think that might come in handy. Other than that. I just want to enjoy their company. And also keep an eye on your bundle of joy for you. I've had pitbulls, pinkingneses, and a beagle before but I mostly know about smaller dogs. I've read a plethora of dog books from my local library during my early teenage years to get a good understanding of most species. I also am constantly researching anything I need to, on more than just Google and wikipedia but multiple sources. I hope I can be of service to anyone who would have me. I work two part time jobs and am looking to fill my time with some fur babies. The time spend at both jobs is equal to less than 40 hours. I have a crate trained dog in my home and plenty of yard to run around. I live on a dirt road so it is not traveled often.
