“I am a repeat client, and not just once. I have had Andrew walk my golden retriever multiple times and I have been very pleased every time!”


About: For the past 12 years, I’ve been pet sitting and walking dogs of all temperaments, from anxious rescues needing patience and reassurance to high-energy pups ready to play. I adapt to each pet’s personality and energy level, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and comfortable while you're away. Whether your pet needs a cuddle companion, a playmate, or a calm and steady presence, I'm here to provide loving and reliable care! I am own my own business which can be done from anywhere. This in combination with reliable transportation allows me to be available as needed. I prioritize making pets feel comfortable and secure while maintaining their usual routine. I follow all client instructions closely, from feeding schedules and medication needs to favorite walking routes and playtime preferences. I take time to bond with each pet, whether that means offering gentle reassurance to anxious pets, engaging in active play with high-energy dogs, or providing cozy companionship for more relaxed pets. I also ensure their environment stays clean and safe by tidying up after meals, refreshing water bowls, and cleaning litter boxes or accidents as needed. *** I will also come and meet any pets beforehand *** I treat every pet and home with the same level of care and respect I would expect for my own. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible for both you and your pet.

“Madison has been such great help and treats our fur baby with love! She has great communication especially with my last minute requests. Highly recommend!”



About: I have house/dog sat for 7+ years now around my old neighborhood. I have cared for pets (cats and dogs) of many ages and breeds. I am experienced with giving your fur babies the medications that they may need and the amount of exercise they require. I am experienced with caring for young and old dogs and will personalize care however you prefer. My pup requires a long walk every day so I am used to walking long distances if needed; it is completely up to you to decide! I have a SUPER friendly boxer. He plays very well with other dogs, big and small. He loves all dogs, humans, cats, you name it. I also currently foster for a Belgian Malinois rescue and have a ~2yo mal foster. She is also friendly and does well with dogs but prefers neutrality. If your dog isn’t friendly or prefers alone time, that is also fine! I am easily able to separate dogs so that they can have a neutral environment. I work from home currently, so I am available to take the pups out whenever they need. My dogs usually get a long walk (1-4 miles) and any dogs I watch are welcome to join! If they cannot handle a longer walk they can get a shorter walk before or after my dog’s walk. I leave for about an hour a day to work out or run errands. At most I’m gone 2 hours from my house. I live in a neighborhood and have a semi large yard. My yard is not fenced but I have long lines (leashes) that I will take your dog out on to run and get exercise if they do not prefer walks. They will always be supervised and on-leash outside to prevent any accidents!

About: Leaving your beloved fur friend doesn’t have to feel like a punishment. When left in the care of an affectionate, protective and attentive dog momma like myself, leaving can be an ultimate act of love. My name is Alicia and I have cared for and loved animals as long as I can remember. I grew up with pets. Any species you can imagine, I had one! However, my heart has always been with dogs.

I have a large dog friendly home in a neighborhood with two dog parks, walking trails, and a large field right across the street. So your pup will not be lacking in space to run and play ooorr lounge and snooze. I have one puppy, he is a medium size cockapoo that’s quite shy but a gentle teddy bear and loves to play chase with other pups! I look forward to meeting you and your fur baby!

I also provide you with the link to their location and the link to my pet cameras so you can get a peek at your baby while you’re away.

About: As a lifelong dog lover, I’ve grown up in a home where we always had up to five dogs at a time—ranging from tiny lap pups to large, energetic breeds. I’m very comfortable handling dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and I have plenty of experience keeping up with high-energy pets who love to run, play, and explore. There’s nothing better than seeing the pure joy on a dog’s face during a good walk or a fun play session! I’m a firefighter/EMT, which means I work 24-hour shifts—but only about 9 days each month. This gives me plenty of free time on my days off, and I’m often available for pet care during weekdays and weekends. My schedule allows me to be dependable, responsive, and flexible, especially for last-minute bookings or ongoing care needs. My fiancée and I share our home with two Australian Shepherds and a Border Collie—so I’m no stranger to energetic, intelligent dogs that need daily exercise and mental stimulation. Even on our busiest days, we make sure our dogs are well-fed, loved, and cared for. I bring that same level of commitment to every pet I look after. You can trust that your furry family members will be treated with the same care, attention, and love that I give my own.

5. Shelby D.
“Shelby has been our go-to dogsitter for our dog Roxy for a few years now. She comes and stays at our house when we are away. She takes Roxy on walks every morning and evening to make sure that her energy is expended. She tends to her needs by making her comfortable enough to eat when we are gone as Roxy normally does not eat when we leave. When Shelby is cooking she brings Roxy's bowl into the kitchen with her so that Roxy is comfortable enough to eat. She is very good at finding what makes the pup most comfortable when their family is away. I would fully recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for their pets.”


6. Shyan H.
“Shyan is an amazing pet sitter and has a lot of experience with all different kinds of animals, I’ll always trust my kitty Bell to be in her care. No one else I’ve found has ever come close to her attention to detail, my Bell is normally not very good with strangers but with Shyan it was like she met a new member of the family.”
