“Kara is reliable, caring, and wonderful with our puppy. We hired her to walk our dog weekly and will definitely rehire for the same service and dog sitting in the future.”

“Glen is doing wonderful job with our Sasha. She is more playful and happier in general. She makes him work to start but than enjoys the fresh air and is ready for nap when they get back. Couldn’t be happier!”

“Erin is excellent with my young , anxious 106 pound Weimaraner. I am so grateful for her help! She communicates well both with the 4-legged and 2-legged customers!”

About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong dog lover with years of hands on experience caring for pups of all ages, breeds, and personalities. I currently have two amazing dogs of my own. Khloe is a resilient 11 year old that has overcome major medical challenges, including a leg amputation and daily medication routines, and Oakley is an energetic 2 year old who keeps life exciting! Because of my own dogs, I’m no stranger to giving medication (including injections), working with limited mobility or vision, and supporting senior pets with the extra care they need. Whether your dog is a bouncing puppy or a gentle senior, I’ll treat them like family with playtime and plenty of belly rubs. I’d love to help care for your furry friend while you’re away! I work second shift, so I’m available in the mornings and early afternoons to care for your pet! I also live very close to work and am able to run home on breaks to see my dogs. In my home, dogs are treated like part of the family. While I don’t have a fenced yard, I make sure every dog gets the exercise and fresh air they need with daily walks, just like I do with my own pups. For dogs with limited mobility or who tire easily, I even have a wagon that I use to wheel them around so they can still enjoy the outdoors safely and comfortably, something I do often for my senior, three-legged dog. Inside my home, I provide a calm, structured environment. I have two crates available and can accommodate both crate trained dogs and those who prefer to free roam. I always take the time to understand each dog’s routine and personality so I can tailor their care, whether that’s sticking to a medication schedule, providing quiet time, or making sure they have plenty of play and affection. In a client’s home, I aim to follow your routines as closely as possible to keep your pup comfortable and stress free while you’re away. My top priority is always the safety, happiness, and well-being of your dog.

“Whitney was great communicating, was very nice to be available on short notice, provided updates, and left my house as she found it. I would be happy to have Whitney walk my puppy anytime.”

“Hannah went above and beyond, not only giving Rocco a great walk but also letting me know I’d left my garage door open and staying later than planned to communicate with me about it and fix it. She is awesome! Thanks Hannah!”

About: My family has had dogs my whole life! I have 2 pups of my own at home. I currently volunteer for a service dog program and have puppy raised and fostered many of the program’s dogs for an extended period of time. I customize my schedule on a weekly basis according to school and my part time job. I am a college student and I work at night 2 nights a week, so my availability should be open the majority of the day. For the days you may book with me, your pup(s) will be my priority. I can crate your dog, if needed. The time spent with your dog will vary based on your daily routine, I’ll try to match it to the best of my ability!

“Katie is WONDERFUL!! Wags, my overweight beagle (who lets me live there with my cat Top!) is already showing signs of having more energy. When I come home, he is bouncing up and down to meet me. It has been a while since he had this energy; I know it’s ALL because of Katie walking Wags! Besides this, Wag’s loves Katie and didn’t give me a second look when she came for him!!!♥️♥️”

About: Hi! My name is Rina, and I’ve always had a genuine love for animals. I have hands-on experience caring for pets of different ages, sizes, and personalities, including feeding, walking, playtime, and providing lots of attention and affection. I’m comfortable following specific care instructions, sticking to routines, and making sure pets feel safe and relaxed while their owners are away. I understand that every pet is unique, and I take the time to learn their needs, energy levels, and comfort cues. Whether it’s an energetic walk, a calm cuddle session, or simply keeping them company, I treat every pet as if they were my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m able to plan my schedule around feedings, walks, drop-in visits, and quality time, making sure each pet gets the attention they need. I’m reliable with timing, flexible when plans change, and happy to accommodate specific routines. Whether it’s quick check-ins or longer visits, I make pet care a priority and make sure every visit is calm, consistent, and stress-free. When caring for pets in my home or theirs, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all feeding, medication, and care instructions closely, provide plenty of attention and enrichment, and make sure pets feel safe and comfortable in their environment. I respect each pet’s personality—whether they’re playful, shy, or independent—and adjust my care to meet their needs. Cleanliness, safety, and communication are always priorities, and I make sure owners feel confident and updated while they’re away.

About: I have hands on experience working with small animals, dogs, cats, and a wide variety of farm animals. I have worked at a doggy daycare and boarding facility. I have 2 dogs and 2 cats of my own. One of my dogs is a working service dog and the other is a retired service dog. I always make sure that your pets will come first. I have completely open availability and am available whenever is needed and I can easily put times into my schedule to create a perfect amount of time to take care of and love on your pet. I have a fenced in yard along with 4 dogs at home. My 4 dogs are also dog friendly and love any other dogs that they meet. I can easily keep dogs separated if need be.

About: I have had a dog since birth. I have both big and little dogs, and I'm not intimidated by much. Each dog shows love differently. I am a full time sitter now. My long term care slots are filled up now! I have my daily daycare routine worked out pretty well, so I can do walks and/or pop-ins if necessary! We have a fenced in back yard, toys, love, and attention. Each animal deserves respect, dedication, and love to help make them feel safe always.

About: I am a veterinary student with 8 years of animal experience! I am trained to look for signs of discomfort or pain in pets! I am also trained to administer medications both orally and through injections if your pet requires any of those types of treatment! I am currently working part time and have very flexible hours! I am willing to work around schedules and will openly communicate about the needs of your pet! I currently do not have a dog at my house as my sweet older baby has recently passed, however I have a fenced in backyard and a quiet neighborhood that is good for walks and exercise outside!

About: Hi! My name is Ashley. I graduated from PSU in 2021 with a BA in International Studies. I’ve had multiple pets (both cats and dogs) since childhood and am very familiar with all caretaking needs for smaller and larger breeds! (Including walking, feeding, watering, giving medicine, etc.) I love animals and want both you and them to be as comfortable with me as possible! I send plenty of photos and am always available to answer any questions or concerns you may have. I work remotely so I have availability and flexibility during the week and on weekends! My significant other also has availability to help provide assistance when needed. The both of us have volunteered at animal shelters and are excited to care for your babies :) I’m very patient and like to give the pets time to adjust. I also like to give lots of cuddles when they’re ready. Every pet is different, so I make sure to learn what each of them needs.

“She is thoroughly awesome. She was on time, helped with some training, even though I had just expected her to walk and sit with my puppy. I would highly recommend her. She is kind, caring and knowledgeable about dogs. :)”

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was 12 and worked as a zookeeper for the past 4 years! I have extensive experience caring for a large range of animals, including those with special health and age related needs. I'm home for the summer before I start my veterinary technician program in October. I will be traveling for periods of it but have an otherwise very open schedule. I own two cats, both of which are calmer in temperament, and have available separate space to care for smaller animals in my home. Currently I watch my family’s bird when they travel and keep him in a Separate room and the cats know to keep out as well as safety precautions I take to keep everyone safe.

About: Hello! Thanks for clicking on me! I have a wealth of knowledge on dog behavior, training, and needs. I have two dogs of my own, Billy and Bruno. I am their primary owner and Caretaker, and I have learned so much from him. I have been caring for family dogs for as long as I can remember. Bruno was a stray before I adopted him and I have learned a lot about socialization, house training, and leash training. I am a middle school ELA teacher with open availability all summer long. I have reliable transportation and can transport your pet in my car if needed. If caring for pets inside of your home, I will ensure that all locks are secured when I exit the home and that all pets are properly cared for as instructed. I have experience using ADT and Simplisafe systems.
