About: I have cared for animals my whole life. I grew up on a small farm taking care of pigs, geese, chickens, steers, goats, cats dogs birds, turtles, hermit crabs, you name it! My schedule is quite flexible, and I’m happy to work around both of our schedules to accommodate any care needs. Have a special request? Just ask! I will always treat others’ pets as if they were my own. I am highly trustworthy and have owned and operated three different businesses in my young life, one of which I still run. Prior to that, I worked in healthcare. I take great pride in being dependable and trustworthy in all my endeavors.

About: I grew up in a household that bred rottweilers so I know the importance of good training and leadership with puppies. I have had many dogs in my life so I am experienced in all stages of a dogs life, including special needs dogs. I currently have two husky mixes that are high energy so I know the importance of going on a good walk. I am comfortable with all sizes of dog, from teacup to giant and ALL breeds I am currently working full time but have mornings and days off free to take care of your pets. I have a set schedule so I should be able to set a routine if you'd like I will keep your dog on a leash at all times outside of the home. I will also make sure to keep an eye on them at all times while they are in my care.

About: I have taken care for pets since I was 16. Usually for friends and family. I feel ready to expand and care for others’ pets. I grew up around dogs and cats and have always known that I love them. I’m entering my senior year of college for education. I run track for semo, leaving me with lots of time to care for your pets. I don’t have a fenced yard but I live on a very safe street where many walks can be provided. I also can easily crate your pet if needed. I don’t mind to travel to a park to get some running in .

About: I have been taking care of dogs since we got our first family dog when I was 4. My husband and I have four babies of our own, plus many dogs in both sides of our family! I have experience with senior dogs, puppies, sick dogs, and dogs requiring medication including eyedrops. I also have experience with dogs of all sizes ranging from 5 pounds to over 165 pounds! Your furbabies will be well taken care of! I work full-time and go to school, but I am available to take care of your babies in the morning and evening as well as on my lunch hour, so there is no need to worry if they will have to go long hours without human interaction. My husband is also available to help out with care when needed (if okay with you. He would never go without approval). I am well versed in long and short walks with dogs as well as administering any needed medications except via injection. As a dog mom myself, I keep a watchful eye on any pup in my care to ensure their safety and wellbeing. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out!

“Jordan was flexible and changed plans last minute when our cat contracted a UTI just before we left town. Jordan administered her antibiotics/pain meds and kept us updated on her recovery while we were away.”


About: I know the struggle is real when trying to find someone to watch your fur baby. Although, we haven't met in person, I hope to gain a bit of your trust for caring for your pet(s) with this short paragraph. Growing up, my family always had a "family" dog so since I was a young girl I have always enjoyed taking care of our pets. Now that I am an adult, I have made the choice to become a vegan because I believe all animals are worth fighting for. I spend most of my free time volunteering at a local animal shelter. My husband and I have four dogs; all of which we adopted from a local shelter. Our families and friends tease us about how much we "spoil" and "pamper" our dogs, but to us, these furry creatures, are family. With all this said, I would be honored to help take care of your furry creatures by walking them when your schedule is pressed for time, going to your home to check in while you’re away, and all together showing them the love I believe all animals deserve. While deciding on my future career, I have a bit of time on my hands. I am currently available Monday through Friday to walk and play with your fur babies. I am also available for day or night check-ins at your home. Although, I can’t stay overnight with your pet(s), I am more than happy to go to your home several times throughout the day and spend time with your furry family while you are away. I will meet your pet’s needs in whatever environment you and your pet feel most comfortable! Does your pet need company for a few hours, a quick potty break, or a long walk? I am happy to help!

“Mariah really helped us out when my husband and I made a last minute day trip out of town. I haven’t had the chance to meet her in person since we had already left when she confirmed she could check on dog Jett, but we look forward to meeting Mariah and using her services again. Thank you Mariah!”


About: I've taken care of at least 3 dogs and 2 cats at one time since I was 12, all large breed dogs. I've also helped to break aggressive dogs so they could be adopted. I've raised a litter of Golden Retriever puppies and gave all their shots myself as well. I've sat for many of my friends and neighbors dogs/cats while they were on vacation. I make my own hours so I am available full time to take care of or just give your pet the extra attention they need! I can do what ever my client prefers, if they want me to hang out a bit with the dog or even take them to the park for a walk or just do what needs to be done to keep the dog as happy as possible while their owner is gone. I am flexible!

About: I've had cats and dogs most of my life. Recently, I only have a kitten at home currently, but I've cared for all ages and sometimes even special needs animals. I have my kitten on a timed eating schedule with wet food to help her get all the nutrients she needs. She also has toys for stimulation, and I play with her daily to increase her stamina and decrease pet depression. For cats, I keep them indoors and make sure they have enough stimulation in their environment. For dogs, it would depend on the weather, the backyard setup, and the specific care that each different individual animal may need.

I want potential clients to know that I am prepared for anything. I have a First Aid Kit for Dogs and Cats.
