About: I have had the pleasure and joy of being able to take care of lots of different animals for over 10 years. I spent some time on a farm where taking care of sheep, pigs, chicken, ducks, and the barn cats and dogs was a daily thing. Later on, I was the proud mama of a german shepherd named Bruno who stole my heart in every way. Unfortunately he is now gone since November of 2023. Since then, my lifestyle has changed and I am not able to have another dog of my own due to long working hours four days out of the week. However I love taking care of pets, especially dogs, and this is the perfect way to still have a connection with these wonderful creatures, even if they are not my own :) I promise to take care of yours as if it was my own! They will be royally treated with me! My Fridays through Sundays are free from other work and I would love to be able to take care of your pets, especially your dogs! I have a spacious home where your pet can feel free to roam and rest. I also have many trails I can take them on walks. There is also a spacious park area where we can play around if that's what your dog prefers! If I am coming to your home, I am more than happy to walk them short or long distances, play with them, or tend to any other pet needs!

“Doug is the best! He takes such good care of Rose and is very empathetic to her She doesn’t like storm & fire works and takes special care of her. Highly recommend Doug!”

“Dayna is fantastic. My dogs really liked her. She was extremely flexible as my plans changed several times. She sent lots of pictures and let me know what was happening with my fur babies every step of the way. I will definitely trust my babies with her in the near future. Highly recommend her.”

Chris R.

“Megan did a great job watching our 2 dogs and my daughters 2 dogs. She spent extra time with them, to make sure that they had their potty breaks and meals. She always left us a summary as to what she did, and sent us pictures with every visit. I felt very comfortable leaving our dogs in her care, and would definitely recommend her.”

Hilary E.

“Becca always takes good care of my furry babies. She is dependable and responds to requests right away. I highly recommend her.”

Gail M.

“Katerina was great with our cat. She arrived every day on time and always sent a picture! She was even able to give Tony his transdermal medication which can be a real pain. I would certainly book her again.”

About: I am a retired high school educator, artist, outdoor enthusiast, and animal lover. I am a five-star walker and a very reliable and compassionate caregiver for your pet. I often feel we are kindred spirits and I am totally intrigued by their individual personalities. I have cared for dogs both personally or professionally for most of my life and willingly care for your pet and their individual needs. Whether it be exploring adventure, padding the neighborhood (walking or running), gifting belly rubs, or providing hydration & nutrition, your pet’s needs will be personalized while in my care with much love and affection. In the future, I hope to rehabilitate dogs and work with their family members to provide a safe space filled with discipline, affection, and a true sense of belonging. You can depend on me and trust that your pet will feel cherished and loved while in my care. Since retiring from teaching, my hours of 1:1 attention have expanded. I am now available to give full weekday hours to your pet in addition to my time during weekends. While caring for pets in parks and neighborhoods, I keep them on a leash during all walks and runs. If we are lounging in the yard I provide the dog an opportunity to relax on a lead while I am outdoors with them. For owners who allow their dogs to visit Lakewood Dog Park’s expansive exercise area, I monitor those dogs while they run and play off leash under my constant supervision. While indoors, I follow the rules that my pet owners prefer whether it be cuddling on furniture and slumbering in bed with me or crating them within their cozy caves with their favorite snuggle toy. I do everything I can to mirror the eating, playing, and napping comfort with the same positive experiences your pet receives in your living home while throwing in a little extra spoiling 🐶❤️🐶

I have multiple litter boxes for your cat needs. I will treat your babies with the utmost love and respect!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was in my 20s. I’ve also taken care of senior dogs, so I know how to handle their special care. I’m very experienced in feeding and grooming, and I love the companionship it brings to a family! I am a stay at home mom, and my husband works from home, so there’s always someone there to watch and play with your fur baby! We always have lots of time for walking and playing throughout the day. I have an extremely safe neighborhood with a little park about a 3 minute walk away, two kids that love playing with dogs, (15 and 8) and an extremely friendly mini goldendoodle!

About: It all started when I was 5 and my sister and I convinced our animal loving parents to add to our family, we got a golden retriever puppy and a kitten in the same year. I have never lived a day without a pet in 35 years! I have open availability. I have 2 smaller dogs and a parrot. I live in a nice, quiet neighborhood perfect for walking furry friends. Ricky and Lucy (cavapoos) love a good slumber party :) I do not have a fenced in yard. My pups know the perimeters. I do take leashed potty breaks and walks with pup visitors. I am familiar with "runners" and an capable of making sure that doesn't happen!

“Beth is very responsible. She Checked in on our two dogs for a few days. The dogs were happy when we returned. We will use her in the future!”
