About: I’ve taken care of all our family, friends, and coworkers 4 legged cuties since I was 14. I love meeting cute new faces and personalities!!!! I’m currently not working a full time job so I have plenty of time and availability to ensure proper care of your 4 legged friends!!! I can easily abide by crating, or playing with your pets in which ever way you feel most comfortable within the comfort of your own home!
About: I've had dogs my whole life. I'm very comfortable with big dogs as I've always had Golden Retrievers. After my kids grew up and moved out and the last of our fur babies passed I decided to spend my time enjoying others dogs like my grandbabies and giving them back! I still love dogs and being around them would enjoy helping with your needs. Long walks or short walks I usually walk 5miles everyday either way. I'm not working anymore so this gives me something to do that I enjoy and not something I have to do but rather enjoy doing. My husband passed from cancer so I have alot of free time . I walked dogs at Canine for Service also and loved that. Overnights are welcome also. Walking, playing , potty breaks and feeding are very fitting for my schedule, I would come to you for your needs.
About: I have over 6 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities. I’ve helped friends, neighbors, and family with daily walks, feeding routines, and providing companionship while they were away. I’m attentive to each dog’s needs, follow instructions carefully, and make sure pets feel safe, calm, and well cared for. I understand how important trust is when leaving your pet with someone, and I always treat dogs with patience, respect, and kindness. Pet care fits naturally into my weekend routine. I’m available on Saturdays and Sundays, which allows me to dedicate focused time to walks, visits, and check-ins without rushing. I plan my schedule carefully to ensure pets receive consistent attention, exercise, and care, and I’m reliable with agreed times and routines. I always prioritize a safe, calm, and respectful environment, whether caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, routines, and boundaries. I’m attentive to pets’ behavior and comfort, and I keep their space clean and secure. My goal is for pets to feel relaxed and for owners to feel confident that their pets are in good hands.
About: *Please Read* Hello! My name is Kaylah. I have been pet sitting for over 10 years and love all types of animals. I have experience with large dogs and small dogs, as well as cats and small animals like hamsters. When your pet stays at our house they are allowed in bed and on our furniture. The only thing I ask is that your pet is kid, dog, and cat friendly :) If you would like to bring your animal to my house I would be more than happy to watch them here, but if you would rather me come to your house that is fine too! I do offer drop in visits at your house but am unable to stay there while you are away. When your pet is at our house they will be loved and spoiled like one of our own pets :) *Updated 11/01/2024- I am a stay at home mom of 5 kids and a full time pet sitter. I will send pictures of your pet while you are away but I do only send pictures every other day unless it is a one night stay or Doggy daycare. (you'll get pictures that day!) If you are interested in having pictures sent to you every day or are interested in any additional services, I do charge an extra fee which can be discussed and added on when booking. :) Also, I do usually send my pictures and updates in the evening. Thank you! I am a stay at home mom and pet sitter full time. I very rarely leave the house and if I do it is not for long. We have a huge fenced in back yard that your dog can run around and play in. When they are outside one of us is always out there with them. :)

“Millie did such a great job walking my rescue silver lab, Belle. She took the time to get to know Belle during the meet and greet and asked really good questions. When walking Belle, she arrived on time, communicated well, and was able to redirect Belle, who often struggles to stay calm when other dogs are nearby. I highly recommend her and willing be using her services again!”

About: I have grown up always having dogs around. When I was younger I would help with taking care of our dogs and helping with training them. It was a team effort to give them the best training and entertaining them all day when they are puppies. I currently have my own puppy that I take on multiple walks a day. We play outside in the grass and play fetch with our favorite toys. I go hiking with him once a week when the weather allows. I make sure to give pets the time they need to run outside and enjoy the day. I make a comfortable environment with lots of toys and a dog park near that they can run around in. I take on walks in a safe dog friendly apartment complex. I keep everything unsafe put away in the cabinets where they are safely away from my puppy from being able to get into them. The pets have access to all areas of my apartment to lounge around or run and play.
