About: I've been playing with and caring for animals since childhood. I started with cats, dogs and horses, moving on to reptiles, birds, fish and small mammals. As an adult I became a Verterinary Technician. I am now retired so am available to give loving care to your pets. I'm retired from being a Vet. Tech. so have some time on my hands, which I would like to spend helping pet owners in my area receive professional loving and safe care for their special pets. Furry or otherwise I have a fenced yard with access via a doggie door. My dog is friendly and is happy to share with others. A large crate is available if that is preferred or needed at certain times. My regular routine includes walks, playtime, grooming and of course feeding and watering.
“Madeleine is our go to sitter for our shy kitty cat. She always takes the time to get her to come out of her shell. We’ve been using Madeleine’s service for over a year now for single night drop ins, weekend trips, and long vacations and she is always available and eager to help and we know our kitty appreciates her too!”
“Amy is wonderful! One of my dogs gets nervous when meeting new people, and Amy was so patient with her and took her time to make sure my pup felt comfortable, which makes me feel good about leaving my dogs in her care. I’d highly recommend Amy and will definitely use her services in the future.”

“This is Makenna’s second time doing drop in visits with my pups and I’m so grateful for the love and care she continues to show my dogs as well as the respect for my space. I’m definitely going to book them again!”
About: Thru my childhood till now have been around dogs and cats. As a child living with my grandparents was around 4 dogs. From that time learned the importance of taking care of a pet. Took them for walks, fed them, bathe them and played with them. During the pandemic felt lonely and it was the right time for myself to have a pet and now I find myself with 2 dogs and 1 cat. I'm currently working full-time at home and do have flexibility to take care, play and walk your pup! I am available for boarding on the weekends and weekdays. To give an idea of how pet care would fit in my daily or weekly routine, below is my daily routine with my own pets. This is not set in stone and can be accomadated to your pet needs. M-F I work 8 am to 4:30, from 6:00 to 7:00 we take a walk/bathroom. Feed them 7:30 am with my cat while I get ready myself to start work at 8. Then during work time, in my breaks we go walking/bathroom and during lunch (1 Hour) we go walking and playing and once done with work, feed them and go on walks and play and before bedtime we take our last bathroom break. During the weekend, we go to park, visit friends or just lay down watching TV. I live in an Townhome, the townhome has a fenced patio yard. In the complex it self there is dog parks to play and run.
“Shelby was fantastic! Very good with the dogs and very good at keeping me in the loop and flexible when we needed it. Thank you!! Highly recommend.”
About: I had my best friend for 8 years and am now looking to nurture and love other people’s best friends when they are unable to. I current don’t have any pets but I have lived in a household with 5 dogs and 1 cat so I have plenty of experience in handling different sizes, personalities and types. I have a hybrid and flexible work schedule that allows me to pursue interests and hobbies outside of work freely. I am home for a good amount of the time and would love to spend my time taking care after dogs. I live in a two story home by myself and have a fully fenced backyard. Pets would never be left unsupervised while staying with me. I don’t mind dogs on furniture or the bed because they are family and how could you say no.

She has pets herself and loves them like if they were her children and spoiled, she loves her fur babies and she just added a new addition to her little paw family. So much more to say about her but you can only find out yourself with trusting her with your fur baby, I promise they will be in good hands with Taina :).”
