“Thank you Margaret - Larry is still talking about the great night he had with you! Margaret is a dog whisper. Larry learn some new tricks and was well taken care of. She is highly recommended!”


“Cori always does a fantastic job with the pups! She keeps me very updated on what's going on with them and talks about them like she's their bff. My dogs can be quirky because I have a very alpha female but she handles any difficulties well! We've already booked 3 times in 2 months because she takes such great care of them.”


“Kristi was so great with our 2 little guys. She went out of her way to come to our house for a meet-and-greet and then came back another time to go over procedures, feeding, etc. It’s very hard to leave your home and pups in the care of a stranger, but Kristi put us at ease right away and didn’t feel like a stranger at all. She provided lots of updates and we were able to enjoy attending our nephew’s wedding without having to worry at all!”

About: While growing up, there were always 6 dogs in the house ranging from chow chows to a small morkie. With my friends and family, I’m the first one on-call to watch their furry friends. I’ve taken care of a Great Pyrenees puppy all the way to a 15 yr old chihuahua. I’m open to overnight pet sitting or even a simple walk :) I typically work Tuesday through Saturday during the day. So I’d be available for morning walks, morning and afternoon potty breaks, or even overnight stays! Sundays and Mondays I have open availability! Since every dog is different, I try to gauge the typical day based on the information provided. If your pup is very social and loves to explore, I’ll bring them on a scenic walk. If you have couch potato, that’s no problem at all!

About: I have over 10 plus years caring for animals. I have experience with small or medium dogs and especially cats. Administering medications, walking, feeding, playtime and everything in between! Experience pet sitting for friends and family and experience caring for a movement impaired dog and diabetic cat. Im currently a Mechanic/Welder as a full time job Monday through Friday for a local company in Jamesville. Available anytime on weekends and limited availability on weekdays after 3:30 PM. I treat everyone’s pets and home as I would my own. Drug free, non smoker and very respectful. The safety of your property and pets is my top priority. Developing trusting relationships with clients and delivering the service you expect is my goal.

“Our dog, Oso, loved James. He got the best walks and lots of attention while we were away. We'd definitely recommend James!”



“Ralph was wonderful and took great care of our new laser dog, Zoey. He shared updates everyday while we were on vacation as well as assisted with watering our plants throughout the house! Ralph shared daily photos and updates about his time watching Zoey! We highly recommend Ralph and will plan to work with in the future!”
