“Gabby was great with our cats! They’re normally very shy and they all really liked her! We would absolutely rebook with her again!”
About: Hello! I’m Natalie, and I love helping animals of all kinds get fresh air, exercise, and positive social time. With experience walking everything from high-energy puppies to mellow senior dogs, I adjust to each dog’s needs. I mainly work with small to medium breeds as well as cats and keep walks/visits calm, attentive, and fun. I’m always happy to reinforce good behavior with treats (with your permission!) and send updates so you know your babies are safe and happy. I'm currently working part time as a coffee barista so I'll have time to tend to your pets! I'll typically be available mid day most days with flexibility. When walking or visiting your fur babies, I prioritize safety, comfort, and fun. During walks, I make sure leashes are secure, follow your dog’s pace and preferences, and always clean up after them. After the walk, I ensure they have fresh water and send a check-in with how everything went. During drop-in visits, I make sure they’re fed, have fresh water, clean litter, and get attention based on their comfort level. I’m gentle, patient, and respectful of each friend's unique personality—whether they love playtime, cuddles, or prefer their space. I also keep a close eye on behavior and send updates so you know they're safe and content. I respect your home and your pet like they’re my own.
“Katie was wonderful. She did everything that was requested and then some, including sending tons of pictures of my cat and playing with her. Would definitely book with Katie again.”
“Jess was so kind and helpful! She had great communication along the way. Will definitely rebook!”
About: I've lived with 3 large dogs for over 17 years and have also helped watch others' dogs, both big and small. I love the senior dogs just as much as the energetic ones and am able to match my energy to what is needed. I can be flexible regarding drop in visits and walks, so please contact me if you have any questions! I'm currently working full time and working on a master's program part time, so I have some availability on weekends to play and care for your pets! I'm available anytime on Sunday and may be able to do some evenings throughout the week. Please contact me if you have any questions. I am very mindful of an owner's home and the dog's needs when providing care. I will respect any rules the dog owner has for their dog and space and can help care for larger and smaller dogs. This includes both senior and younger dogs.
“Alsacia is a great communicator and takes awesome care of my cat. Highly recommended!”
About: I have taken care of all kinds of dogs since I was about 14 starting with dogsitting for family friends. Once i was 16 I put my info on facebook and I started getting more dogsitting oppertunities. I dogsat for only one dog up to three dogs, small dogs up to big dogs and cats. i have driven a few miles to a house up to about 15 miles. I am in school for radiology, and my summer schedule is as follows: I have clinic from 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, and I have class on Thursdays until 12:00 PM. On Sundays, I play in a slow-pitch softball league, but that only takes up a few hours each weekend. Outside of those commitments, I have plenty of free time and would love to spend it playing with your pups! I have a fenced-in yard just for my puppy—a small 8lb Mini Schnauzer who is very friendly and would love to keep your furry friend company. I also have four cats who are used to being around other animals. We have a doggy door for smaller pups and a nice backyard with plenty of space for running and playing. There’s also a nearby playground and park—one within walking distance and the other just a few minutes' drive away—perfect for outdoor adventures!
“Kristen was great! Pups were nice and tired after her visits which is exactly what I needed! Thank you so much and I look forward to having you again soon!”

“Dawn is very communicative, available, and easy to work with!”
“Kasie is always our choice to take care of our beasts, she's punctual and understands their needs. Even the timid ones warm up to her and give love!”
About: I've owned animals ever since I could remember. When I was a baby we had a cat named Pookie Bear. Around the time I turned 5 my parents bought me a dog I named Pumpkin. Around 7 years ago Pookie Bear unfortunatly passed away, but knowing we needed a cat we bought 4 more! Void, Cuddles, Peeper and Ci-Ci. Then in 2019 Pumpkin had to be put down, but I couldnt live without a dog, so that summer I went and bought a German Shepherd puppy that I named Gizmo. Gizmo is now 3 years old and I couldnt imagine life without him. He is truly part of the family now. I travel for work on some weekends but am mostly always free. I will make sure to always have my calendar updated to show when I wont be availible. If I am checking up on your animal I will make sure to follow all directions given and also give the animal the best care that it needs!
