“Katie was great, went out of town for a family emergency and was relieved our furry family was well taken care of. The report cards were so good to read. Katie kept me posted with every visit and I will definitely recommend her and have her spoil our furry family again.”

About: I have always grown up with pets (dogs, cats, birds, fish…even a reptile or two!) I adopted my pup, Hurley, nearly 15 years ago and it has been one of my joys to have her in my life. I am experienced in caring for dogs of all ages, helping you practice any training you might be working on with your pooch, dispensing medications and other care needs, as well as keeping your furry friend safe if they have any anxieties or other difficult behaviors. While I am not a trainer, I have kept up regular formal, positive reinforcement training with my dog and we’ve also taken lots of fun classes like agility and nose training—meaning I know lots of fun games to keep your pup engaged during my visit. I am a freelance consultant so my days tend to be pretty flexible. I am generally available throughout the day to care for your pooch. I am an attentive care-giver. I will follow all instructions, ensure your dog is safe in its environment—whether we are walking or playing. I have experience with dogs with medical or other special needs and will always ask about your preferences for care.
About: Apart from being a dog and pet owner for most of my life, I have cared for friends' and family's dogs, cats, birds and other small pets. Now as a mother in my 40s working part time, and with a 15+ year career in marketing & communications, I am ready to help you with your beloved pet including custom and senior care and will keep you informed along the way. I'm also not afraid to ask questions! I am Reiki Level I certified and have applied these skills with rescue dogs to help them feel more grounded and secure. I work part time and have a young daughter in first grade, so I have some more free time during the weekdays for drop ins and walks! Building trust and maintaining a safe environment is my utmost priority. Not only will I keep clear communication along the way, but I lead with my heart in everything I do.
About: Over the years I’ve learned how much trust and attention it takes to make every animal feel safe, happy and loved. My dog Luna reminds me of that every single day! Currently not working. I want to follow my heart into professional pet care, by spending over two decades in customer service, property management and small business owner. When going out for walks I always have my dog or friends dog on the leash at all times. I keep my eyes open when approaching other dogs and look for their body language or behaviors.
“Evan and his daughter Emma were amazing with my puppy Luna. My 3 month old puppy didn’t go potty in the house with him or in her crate which is amazing and he made she sure was taken care of and even sent me pictures then left a super kind letter for me at the end of his stay with her. Thank you so much and I highly recommend Evan!”

“Sydney went above and beyond taking care of my puppy. She clearly loves animals and is very communicative with everything. If i could give more stars I would!!! Highly recommend her care for your pets!!”

“Shanna was wonderful. She took great care of our pup, communicated frequently and with great detail. She was flexible and when things didn’t go exactly according to plan (I.e. potty accidents) she took care of it.”

“Holly and Blue adore Rachel! She was kind enough to stop by on her lunch to let them outside while my my Mom was on vacation, and she sent me fun photos of each visit. Thank you!”

About: Healthcare worker by day, pet sitter… also by day. I’ve worked with animals since I was 15, pet sitting and volunteering at cat shelters. I love spending time with them and taking some stress off owners while they’re away. I can also take care of plants, reptiles, etc. I’m available Monday-Friday after 5 pm and weekends any time! I only do overnight house sitting on weekends as well, but I can make exceptions for emergencies! The animal/owner preference always comes first! My kitties are very dog-like, I take them on walks and bring them to cafes for enrichment. I love working with both cats and dogs since it lets me spend time with some puppies!

About: I've been around pets my whole life. I currently have two senior dogs that I have raised since they were puppies and am familiar with administering animal medication as one of my dogs is diabetic. I have always had cats as well and am familiar with their needs and when to give them space. I am a full-time student, so traditional jobs are difficult, but I have plenty of time during the day for pet care. During the summer I am very available from mornings to afternoons to nights. I don't vacation often or have many obligations outside of school which allows me plenty of time for pets. I am willing to look after any age, any size and any temperament. I am willing to go to a client's home or take pets for walks or for a ride in the car if they enjoy. I don't have much experience in training, though I am learning, but I am patient and forgiving and will play fetch all day or be a cuddle buddy for the more sedentary pets too.

About: Hi, I’m Kayana! - Certified belly rub specialist 😊 I’ve cared for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities for as long as I can remember. As an animal lover, I treat every pet like part of my own family. Animals have always been a huge part of my life and I genuinely love getting getting to know each of your little loved ones. I bring hands-on experience, caring for dogs and other pets with a wide range of needs. I’m extremely comfortable following all detailed care instructions, maintaining consistent routines, and handling medications when needed. You can expect clear communication, timely updates, and dependable care every time. From energetic puppies to senior pets who need a gentler touch, I’m patient, attentive, and focused on keeping them safe, comfortable, and happy. Hope to meet you and your pets soon! 🤍 I currently work a full time 8-5 Tuesday-Saturday, however, I do still have flexibility in my work routine. Outside of work, my schedule is very much open to meeting the needs of your fur babies! I understand how important it is to feel confident leaving your pet with someone new. Rest assured, safety, and trust come first in everything I do. I create a calm, safe space where pets can relax. I follow routines carefully, stay alert during walks and visits, and provide a secure and loving environment. I respect your home, communicate, clearly, and make sure you always feel confident that your pet is in great hands.
“Olivia was awesome with our kitty- he can be slow to warm up to new people, and she was very patient with him and his spicy tendencies. Olivia is very prompt in her communication and very thorough in ensuring that all directions are understood and followed. We will definitely be using her services again!”

About: I have hands-on experience working as a veterinary technician, where I learned safe handling, medication administration, basic first aid, and how to keep pets calm in new or stressful situations. That background helps me confidently care for puppies, seniors, pets with medical needs, and shy or nervous animals. Outside of clinical work, I’ve grown up caring for family pets. I’m patient, gentle, and attentive — whether your pet needs enrichment and long walks, or quiet cuddles and routine comfort. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my priority. I currently have a very open and flexible schedule, so I’m able to match your pet’s routine — whether that means early walks, midday visits, or cozy evenings at home. Safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I treat every pet with patience, respect, and the same level of care I’d want for my own. When I’m caring for pets in their home, I follow their established routines — feeding schedules, walks, training cues, boundaries, and any house rules. I make sure doors, gates, and crates are secured, and I always keep a close eye during outdoor time or new environments. At my home, pets have a calm, clean space where they can relax, play, or cuddle depending on their energy and personality. I’m attentive during introductions, supervise closely, and provide plenty of enrichment, exercise, and affection. Whether your pet needs structure and long walks or quiet time and a soft place to nap, I’m committed to keeping them safe, happy, and comfortable.
About: I've had a dog ever since I was 10. She required a lot of work and handling. The joy of playing, walking, feeding and them coming up to you is a blessing. I've taken care of so many dogs and cats. Being with those animals makes my day better. I've taken care of all kinds of dogs as in, big dogs, small dogs, puppies. I've done it all. I am also very good at giving medication, if needed. I have a dog of my own and she makes my day and I want to be able to have that with yours. I currently work at CRCCS and becoming a dog trainer. I’m also looking to work and get experience for myself. My days off are Sunday Monday and Thursday. Im available at any time of those days. The days I work at my job is Tuesday Wednesday and Friday Saturday. I’m available anytime after 6 if needed. I love working with animals and would love to help in anyway I can!🐾 If anything, that needs to be done, I will get that done. I'm here to make you happy and the animal happy. I make sure everything is well done!
