Amanda did a fantastic job with our 3 cats! She even took care of some plants that got delivered to us. She sent us daily pictures of the kitties and even swept up after them. We would not hesitate to ask her to care of our kitties again!

About: I've cared for several cats and dogs of all ages in my life since my childhood including newborn puppies and kittens. I understand the importance of good nutrition, hygiene, exercise and affection in order for our pets to be healthy physically and emotionally. As members of the family, I understand the relief that comes with knowing and trusting someone is taking proper care of your pet when you are away. I have a very flexible schedule where I can adjust my time according to your pets needs. I am self employed part time allowing me to be available all different times of the day. I can provide trustworthy care for your pet safely in your home or on outings. I enjoy walking and running, and making trips to the dog park.

About: I have had pets all my life. I love them all…especially the doggies! We have four rescue pups, a bunny and and a bearded dragon so we share the love with all different animals. I started a dog treat bakery business a couple of years ago that’s really starting to grow, so I’m now transitioning from the 9-5 job so I can pursue my passion for animals full time. I own my own dog bakery and work from home, so my availability is very flexible. We have an 11 acre farm with 2 separate “dog yards”. I will take your dog(s) for long walks and of course playtime if they like, give them food water and treats as needed, and I’m happy to accommodate with any special requests if your fur baby has a favorite activity, treat, or any special needs.

About: My husband and I have always had a soft spot for animals. Growing up around pets taught us both how to care for them with patience and love. Together, we’ve looked after dogs and cats of all ages—from playful puppies to senior pets who need a gentler touch. We’re comfortable giving medications and sticking to routines. We’re calm, reliable, and always focused on making pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Caring for pets fits naturally into our routine because my husband and I genuinely love spending time with animals. We both work weekdays from 8 AM to 3:30 PM (and until 12 PM on Fridays), so we’re available for morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend visits. Our flexible schedule lets us give pets the attention and consistency they need—whether it’s for walks, playtime, check-ins, or overnight care. Whether in our home or yours, your pet’s safety and comfort are our top priorities. My husband and I follow routines carefully, give lots of love, and let pets adjust at their own pace. We always respect your home and treat your pet like family.

About: Hi, I’m Kimberly! While I do not have professional experience caring for dogs, I’ve had dogs my entire life growing up and currently have four of my own, so I’m very used to being around them and taking care of them every day. I’m comfortable with all the basics like walks, feeding, playtime, and just making sure dogs feel safe and cared for. Being around my own dogs has taught me how different each one can be, so I always try to pay attention to their personality and needs. I’m reliable, patient, and will treat your dog like one of my own. Whether they need a good walk, some energy burned off, or just a little extra attention, I’ve got it covered. Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine since I have four dogs of my own. My day is structured around feeding, walks, playtime, and making sure they’re all comfortable and cared for. Because I’m used to managing multiple dogs, adding pet care for others fits in easily. I’m already in that routine, so it’s something I genuinely enjoy and make time for every day. I stay consistent with schedules and make sure each pet gets the attention they need. When caring for pets in my home, I treat them like part of the family. I make sure they have a safe, comfortable space and stick to their normal routine as much as possible with feeding, walks, and playtime. Since I have dogs of my own, I always pay close attention to introductions and make sure everyone is getting along and feels comfortable. In a client’s home, I will focus on keeping things as familiar as possible for the pet. I will follow their usual schedule, whether that’s walks, feeding times, or medications, and make sure they’re getting plenty of attention and care while you’re away. I’m respectful of your home and always keep things clean and organized. My goal is to make pets feel relaxed and cared for, whether they’re with me or staying in their own space.

About: I've had dogs my whole life. I can't imagine living without dogs. I often rescue lost dogs and bring them back to their owners. I love every dog I meet. I've watched friends pets and take great care of them because I enjoy it so much. I'm newly retired and have plenty of time to take care of my own dogs and also love on yours. I can't imagine a better way to make some extra money because I love it so much. I just bought a pet friendly home for me and my own two little dogs. I have a fenced in front and also back yard so they will be safe and happy.

Kim was absolutely wonderful with our older kitty, Georgia Mae! She came to our home a bit early so that she could meet us and our Kitty. I was hesitant to have anyone watch our kitty, because yes, I’m an overprotective fur baby mama, and could not bring myself to put her in anyone’s care but my own. Let me tell you, letting go, and letting Kim take care of her was one of the best things I’ve ever done! Kim was so loving to Georgia Mae, she showed her caring and love of fur babies right away, and our Lil girl went right up to Kim in trust....great sign! I am already looking at other dates in the near future for Kim to again show her love for Georgia Mae, and sweet manner with myself and my husband. She is the best! Thank you Kim! Thank you Rover! We now have a wonderful new friend of our family!

For dogs, I love all types! I enjoy providing a long walk for them, trips to the park if they have lots of energy you need them to burn off and even trips to the pet store for treats, or a pup cup for dessert, if allowed! I have always had a cat growing up as well! I currently have two; a beautiful orange tabby and a silver tabby! They are both amazing cats, love cuddling and I spoil them like they were dogs!
