“Taylor was awesome! She is took care of our kitties really well, and sent wonderful photos with detailed updates. We will definitely be booking her again next time that we need someone to check on our babies.”
“It was comforting to know that Marcella was here taking care of my cat friend, Sonny. She did a great job communicating what was going on and dealing with my friend who hides from strangers. She was able to bring him out of his shell a bit. Based on my experience, I would recommend Marcella and I expect to ask her to look after my friend in the future.”
“Jill took care of our cats during a long weekend, making sure one of them got their meds everyday. She was reliable and completed reports with photos to make sure we knew they were being well taken care of. We would book with her again!”
“Jen took such excellent care of our dog and cat! Our dog is 15 and has leg problems, and she made sure he got outside and walked a little. She is so patient with him and always gives both our dog and cat a lot of attention and love. Can’t recommend Jen enough!”
About: I’ve had different breeds of dogs in our home for years, I love to go for walks and have experience with leash training- i have availability to give your pets a break if you need someone local to pop by! I currently work part time & from home, so i have a lot of flexibility to pop out for walks and breaks. I can also be handy in a last minute situation. I have experience with many types and breeds, currently I have a 150 lb bullmastiff boy so size is not an issue here! I adore them big and small.
About: I grew up on a farm, and always cared for multiple dogs at the same time. My wife and I have had, or cared for dogs almost all our adult lives. I enjoy caring for dogs and spending time walking with them, playing with them, and just being with them. I recently retired, and my wife works from home, so we’re both here all day. I take daily walks, and spend a lot of time outdoors. I have a good-sized yard, live in a quiet neighborhood, and my property borders conservation land. I can easily accommodate a crate, dog bed, etc.

About: Always had dogs & cats as a kid. Always loved it too! I worked with them for years and years and got a good overall feel/sense for various types and breeds, situations etc. I started taking care of neighbors pets, then friends too, and once Covid shut down our family stores, it gave me a chance to continue doing what I love, working with animals! I especially enjoy the challenge of winning over dogs that are timid, uncomfortable, anxious, have been abused, etc. I love proving to them that they're Safe. Everythings alright. Its ok to relax. Some are nervous around me or arent great with adults/males/strangers etc. That's Ok! Please see my reviews, Thanks for your consideration! My day totally revolves around my clients. They come First! Depending on what care I have to give to each animal. I'm around all the time otherwise! I take countless precautions to assure the safety of anyone and everyone that will be involved in my care for my clients. I keep an eye on them all day and night!
About: I have 5 acres of wooded land that we made a trail in just for our dogs. The last of who has just passed. Would love to see paw prints in the trail again. I am a stay at home mom. With my youngest now in high school. So besides the occasional appointment and nature walk. I am usually home all week. As far as walking. I love walking all the dog friendly trails. Even if it’s to see other dogs. We are a dog friendly home with gates on our deck so that pups can enjoy the outdoors even more.
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life and have always loved caring for them. Whether it’s going for long walks, playing outside, or just spending quality time together, I genuinely enjoy being around dogs and making sure they’re happy and well cared for. I understand how important it is to keep pets active, loved, and safe, and I treat every dog like they’re part of the family. As a teacher currently on summer break, I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care. My days are open, so I’m available for walks, drop-ins, or extended stays throughout the week. I love having the opportunity to spend my break doing something I enjoy—being active, outdoors, and taking care of pets. It’s the perfect way to combine my love for animals with my free time during the summer months. When school starts, I’m available after 3pm. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, comfortable, and fun environment. I have a fenced yard where dogs can run and play freely under supervision, which gives them a great outlet for exercise and fresh air. Inside, pets have plenty of space to relax and feel at home. I follow each pet’s routine as closely as possible, whether that means regular walks, feeding schedules, playtime, or cuddles. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and routines, making sure their pets feel secure and cared for while maintaining consistency in their daily lives.

About: I’m a dog lover at heart with 2 Australian Shepherds of my own! I’m currently enrolled to become a certified dog trainer - which I can then use in addition to my dog walking skills. Im currently working Tuesdays through Fridays with weekend availability (as well as after 6pm depending on the days.) With enough notice, I may also do holidays. I have a large yard to let my two fur-babies run around and explore. My dogs are also leash trained, but they wouldn’t accompany me on my walks with my new friends.
About: From Pups to Frogs: Lifelong Animal Lover Ready to Pamper Your Furry (or Scaly!) Friend! I have been rescuing and taking care of animals my whole life and am more then happy to help with your furry friends needs! I'm a part-time worker who loves dogs! I'm flexible and can give your furry friend all the attention and care they need. With a few days' notice, I can easily adjust my schedule for walks, playtime, feeding, and cuddles! Your pets' safety is my priority. I watch doors and gates, use a leash on walks, and stay aware of traffic and animals. Happy pets are relaxed, so I make sure they have fun with play and exercise.
About: I have never lived without dogs, I love them all and can't wait to meet yours! I enjoy training and will help with that if you let me know what you are working on. I retired early, so if I am taking care of your dog I can work my schedule around its needs. My other obligations are very flexible so with good communication we can find a way to make it happen! I live with my young, very friendly miniature Aussie Rufus, who loves other dogs as much as I do! When watching a dog in my home I generally keep dogs with me, whether that is indoors or outside. My yard includes a large deck, grassy area, kiddie pool and small wooded area, and is fenced with a 4-foot chain link fence. If your dog is a large jumper or climber, it would probably not work for them and in that case they would need to be only leash walked and/or tethered but never tethered unattended, I would stay outside with them in that case. Regardless, they would be leash walked several times a day in addition to time in the yard. When I am out, my dog is crated. I can crate your dog if you wish, or I can gate him/her into my kitchen area. Water is always available.
About: I’ve taken care of my dog for the past 10 years every single day, I take her on walks, clean up after her, and entertain her to accommodate her energetic personality I take care of my own fur babies every single day, and alongside that I would love the opportunity to help out some other pet parents so their babies have everything they need! I care for pets in my home as well as others by treating them with the utmost love and care. When a pet needs something, I don’t ignore their needs or cries. I put their safety and health before everything!
About: I am an animal lover who has taken care of dogs & cats since I was a kid! I currently have a cat and care for my parent’s dog on occasion. I mostly work from home so I have plenty of time to drop in and walk/play with your pet! I am looking forward to some dog breaks in my work day :) I am open to walking/driving to your home to care for your pet! My home is too small at the moment to bring pets here.
About: Whether it’s the soothing sound of a purr or the way they curl up in cozy corners, my princess brings a special warmth to my life. I’m currently working full time. I can do weekends and daily check in within surrounding towns. I’m flexible and accommodating. I can bring to my house to travel to yours. Mother of two teenagers.

While I was on vacation Sarah watched my three dogs, and I was reassured by the photos she sent, and the updates she gave us about the walks, how they were eating, and how she continued obedience training with our Weimaraner puppy.
