“Kristen was fantastic, as always! She does a great job of looking after my kitties and even gets my shy kitty to come out of her shell. She’s attentive and communicative and does a wonderful job!”


“Leslie was so sweet to my little Luna! Cats of course aren’t always the most social of creatures but Luna took to Leslie right away! She sent me pics that showed Luna all snuggled up on her lap which made me feel good! I’d highly recommend and will definitely have Leslie back to watch my little kitty!”


“Kayla did a great job. She kept the food and water bowls full, scooped the litter box, and cleaned up some "accidents". She sent pictures of my babies every day - when she could find them! Definitely will rebook with her when needed!”


About: Hi! Ive been working at kennels my entire childhood. I know exactly how to care for any of your furry loved ones and spoil the hell out of them! One thing I find very important is to send daily photo updates to the owner so they know their loved ones are being well taken care of. Taking good quality pictures of animals (with permission) and seeing the owners reaction is a passion of mine. I currently work these days at a dog kennel: Tuesday/Wednesday 6am-4pm On Tuesdays and Wednesdays I can stop 3x a day, once before, once after, and once later in the evening. Friday/Saturday 12pm-10pm On Friday and Saturdays I would only be able to visit the home 2x, once before work and once after. Monday/Thursdays/Sundays I can stop however many times upon the owners request. I have a safe home with a large yard for your furry friend to run and get their zoomies out! Everything in my home is put away and out of reach that could potentially harm your pet.

About: I’ve been around pets my entire life. I grew up in a household of cats and dogs. A few different breeds and various personalities. Wether they were playful or cuddly I’ve cared for them each individually. I am currently in the process of working on getting some classes and certifications for my dream job so I have plenty of time to spend with your pets. House visits and dog walking are my preferred services. I will respect your space and your pets. I care deeply about animals and people. My top priority is to keep people and pets safe and happy.

About: I can watch animals of all sizes, chickens, goat dogs, cats, dogs, I own a few types over the years and can possibly learn a new pet, if needed to watch ❤️❤️🐰 I’m currently at home during the day, I’m usually scheduled 1-2 nights a week and will have my daughter helping with the responsibilities for caring for your animals, walking, reading them books and loving on them! I can care for your baby at my home, or yours. Sometimes they’re more comfortable in their home, safety comes first. I will be taking your dog, for walks, car rides, and down to the lake to see my world.

About: I am an energetic person who is looking to spend time with animals. I am reliable, careful, and understand the bond people have with their animals. I have had an anxious animal and know how to approach them. I have also had experience with training puppies and senior care. I am big on communication and taking the time to better the lives of animals. I am a teacher that has the summer off from school so I am looking to fill my days with pet care! I am very flexible with times, days, and amount of visits. I ensure that your pet is being watched and has sufficient water and food. I will follow all directions and ensure that all safety features are in tact (gate closed, doors closed, nothing in reach for pet). I am respectful towards all household rules and want to be a reliable person to help ease owner anxiety.

“Our dogs did great with Milan for a weekend dog sitting! Milan was consistently on time and did great with keeping our dogs fed and taking them on walks. We really appreciate how well Milan communicated and shared pictures! That really gave us peace of mind while we took a weekend away. Our pups immediately were at ease with him when we first did our meet and greet, and were excited to see Milan each visit - even though they usually take a few minutes to warm up to strangers. He gave them plenty of scratches and loving when he dropped by and they were very relaxed and happy when we got back. Having Milan look after our pups while we took a weekend away was great for us, and we would definitely book him again, and would recommend him to anyone else!”


About: I have been dog walking/sitting for 7 years now no matter what the size or the breed is, as long as the dog is friendly and loving. I've dog sat 8lb Mini-Poodles and Chihuahuas to 100lb Pittbulls and German Shepards. I LOVE dogs along with enjoying long walks and being outside which is why I began dog sitting/dog walking. I also have my own pup, a 1 year old named Jax. He is part Cane Corso and Redbone Coonhound and serves as my Emotional Service Animal and bestfriend. If I have the honor to dog sit/walk your pup, I'll treat and love them as I would my own! I would be beyond happy to take and use my love for dogs to help others care for their own four legged friends. I run my own business so I am in charge of my own schedule. I can be flexible if given at least a day or 2 notice. I have a very friendly and loving dog that loves others dogs, both big and small. Inside my home there are tons of safe dog toys, lots of delicious treats and many comfy sun spots to relax in.

About: I have lived and taken care of Pets and livestock since I was born. I have raised and loved puppies, cattle, horses, chickens, goats, donkeys, ect. My love for pets goes beyond their care, It goes to how comfortable they are and the connection I feel with them personally and getting to know them as an individual. I have home pet care experience, I take care of three dogs and one cat daily as well as work on a family farm. My pets are like family to me, and I love them all individually. My pets at home have a schedule they know their own rigorous routine. I teach my dogs rules and expectations at home to keep them safe and build trust in our relationship.

About: I’ve had dogs for 22 years, experience in knowing pet behavior, safety, and pet care. Know your pets are in safe, predictable hands with me! I work full time from home- so I can make daily/weekend trips as necessary. Whatever time is best for your pet- I can accommodate it. The care and safety of your pets is top priority- and I take a family member’s safety and care very seriously. Like my own pets.

About: I have loved all animals since I was a child & it has been my passion to work with them. I raised my 8 year old pittie since he was a pup & I love meeting & learning each unique personality. I currently work 2 days a week so that gives me 5 days off to help in any way possible! Feeding, walking, play time you name it! Unable to pet sit due to having my own dog, but I can come to the owners home & work with your fur baby in any way needed through out the day/week.

“I can’t say enough great things about Kayla as a dog walker! From our first meeting, she was warm, professional, and clearly experienced with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. My pup instantly took to her, which is saying a lot because he can be a bit shy with new people. She’s incredibly reliable and always sends the cutest updates and photos from their walks—it gives me so much peace of mind while I’m at work. I can tell she genuinely cares about my dog’s well-being and happiness. Her attention to detail and positive energy make all the difference. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and truly passionate about animals, I highly recommend Kayla. She’s been a total lifesaver for”
