About: With a lifelong love for animals and experience caring for both household pets and farm animals, I treat your pets with the same attention and affection you would. My goal is to ensure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I am a self-employed designer/printer, so my schedule is very flexible and adjustable based on your/your pets' needs. I am also single, so I do not have any other prior commitments other than work, and I do not have any pets of my own, so your pet(s) will have my full attention. I typically housesit/farm-sit, and I seek to adhere to the owners' standards. I am attentive to schedules, tasks & chores, and the pets' attention & affection needs. I keep a clean environment, and I make sure that the owner's home is in the same shape as when they left it.
About: Hi! I'm Jessy and I am a lifelong owner and caretaker of cats, dogs, and other animals big and small. I'm here to make sure your pet is happy, cozy, and cared for so that you can give your full attention to work and travel while you're away. I currently own two of my own rescue pups (Jack & Kitty) and am an active animal shelter volunteer. I have formal experience with puppies, dog walking, foundational dog training, house sitting, and drop-in visits. I work from home and am able to visit with your pet during the early morning or late afternoon on weekdays and am extremely flexible on weekends. Running late or stuck in traffic on your way home? No worries - I take same day bookings and can fly over to make sure your pup gets let out and fed! For doggy day care in my home: I work from home and have two small rescue dogs that live with me. I am in an apartment complex, but we have a fenced dog run and plenty of safe areas to walk including a local park with paths! I am flexible to care for your dog in your home however they are used to - let's discuss if your pup has any special needs or preferences.
About: I'm passionate about providing loving and attentive care for pets. With experience spanning from pet sitting since my teenage years and having had dogs of all ages and breeds throughout my adult life. From energetic puppies discovering the world to gentle seniors enjoying their golden years, I understand the unique needs of each stage of a dog’s life. I believe that every pet deserves to be treated like family. My mission is to create a safe and nurturing environment where your furry friends feel comfortable and loved while you’re away. I approach each pet with patience, understanding, and joy, ensuring they receive the care and attention they require. I am available on most weekends starting from Friday night to Sunday night. I am currently providing walks and drop ins. Can walk with my pup or single depending on your dogs needs. I try to cater to you and your pets needs as much as possible. I will be respectful in your home and communicate regularly so you know how your pet is doing.

About: Hello! My name is Darrion. I work at a veterinary hospital full time as a vet tech. My boyfriend Jake works from home full time so someone is always home. My passion is taking care of animals and working with them. I live in a home that has a fenced yard. We will offer lots of play time. We have lots of dog toys lying around. I have experience giving medications/vaccinations, working with special needs dogs, and working with senior dogs. I have a lot of experience with pets that have health issues as well. I will do whatever it takes for your baby to be happy and have a great time. Any special requests? I will try to fulfill them! I want your pet to feel like they're at home and I'll do whatever I can to make them feel that way! I work full time Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday. Off Thursdays. Work one Saturday a month. When I'm off work, I'm available to be with your pet the entire day. When I'm at work, I'm unfortunately not available to be with your pet until I'm off work. BUT my boyfriend Jake works from home so he will be with your pet all day. My pets have free roam of my house at all times, even when I'm not home. If your pet is good free roaming at all times, even when someone isn't home, I'll definitely let them do that. If you prefer them to be in a crate when no one is home, I can do that. All pets are allowed on the furniture. I treat your pets as if they're my own.

Charles T.
“We are very protective of our animals here on the farm. We often turn down opportunities to go away because of the animals but since we discovered Charles and his loving care of the animals, we can be freer to say, "yes" to opportunity. Charles not only is trustworthy, he is caring and conscientious about doing things the way we want them done. We have had Charles here on the farm while we went away for more than 2 weeks at a time. The animals all thrived while Charles was here. We have booked Charles' services for the future. We would hardily recommend Charles!”

“Madison has always been surrounded by animals, making her well-versed in many different animal concerns. Owning two dogs, she is used to the responsibility of walking and caring for not only one dog but two dogs at one time. In addition to this, she has become the new owner of a Bernese Mountain Dog. Getting him as a puppy, she is well-experienced with training, exercise needs, and feeding habits of dogs of any age. Being a pet owner myself, she has also helped me with my pets! I own two dogs; one Zuchon and one Norwegian Buhund. She has taken care of them in the form of walking, feeding, playing, and watching them. Overall, Madi is well-prepared and enthusiastic about any animal need.”
