“Pamela was able to accommodate a quick stay on very short notice and she was absolutely amazing with our dogs! One of our pups can be very boisterous and quite the handful, but Pamela was incredibly understanding and patient with him. She even brought her own treats over to help win him over, and it worked! We are so grateful we found Pamela; it gives us peace of mind knowing we have someone we trust to watch our pups.”

About: I've had pets in the home since age 1, and have been helping to take care of them since I could walk. I've always loved animals, and began volunteering at animal shelters, walking, bathing, and feeding shelter dogs beginning at age 5. I have worked in the field of veterinary medicine since 2023, and have a working knowledge of many medical and behavioral issues. I am comfortable caring for cats and dogs of any size, administering medications, walking reactive dogs, and more. I am also trained in canine CPR and first aid, in case of emergencies. I'm currently working from home, with the ability to bring my work on the road, so I have the flexibility to accommodate the needs of each individual fur family! I currently provide services in the client's home only. I will ask for a rundown of of your pet's daily feeding/walking/play schedule, and do my best to make your fur baby feel at ease while under my care with lots of playtime, cuddles and love; and maintaining their usual routine while you're away!
About: I’ve had dogs in my life since I was 5. I’ve had my own dog since I was 16 and currently live in a household with 5 dogs. I even have and do pet sit for friends and family. Proper animal care is like second nature to me. I’m currently unemployed so my availability is very open (especially after June). Taking care of dogs is basically my whole life, we have 5 of them in our household. I also live with a dog trainer so I have a little bit of knowledge on that as well. Proper pet care is my top priority. I take care of clients animals just like they’re my own. making sure they’re fed and watered and have their enrichment time. If your dog gets along with others I will bring mine for a playmate
About: I have been an animal lover since I was born! I grew up on a farm that included all farm animals; mainly horses, dogs, and cats. I’ve had many years of experience with training, and proper pet care! I currently work from home and I have plenty of time throughout the day for pet sitting! I’m available 24/7 I enjoy walks, and nature so I spend a lot of time outside. I have a large fenced yard, fit for animals. We have a loving friendly 7 year old hound dog named Copper. We live in a safe quiet neighborhood close to trails and parks.
“Breezy was just fabulous took care of my dogs like a they were hers. Was very comfortable that my dogs were in good hands.kept me in touch daily with pictures. Will definitely book breezy again. Thanks breezy for taking care of my dogs.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a kid. My parents and neighbors have always relied on me to care for their pets while away. I always makes sure the pets are taken care of— that includes regular feedings, regular and plentiful walks, play times, and any medicine that needs to be given. I’m a teacher on break for the summer. So I have a lot of free time nowadays. I can look after pets for the next month and a half with not many conflicts in my schedule. I care for pets in others’ homes by respecting their house rules, making sure feedings and walks are done in a timely manner, and giving the pets lots of attention.
“Natalie did a terrific job on such short notice providing house and pet sitting needs for us . She was a lifesaver and will definitely use her services again”
“Our dogs enjoyed their time with Christopher! He has a calm and relaxing presence with our anxious pup. Great communication allowed us to relax and enjoy our time away. Will be requesting Christopher again!”
About: I can care for a wide variety of animals. Care will include lots of physical and mental stimulation, as well as anything else you’d like! Let me know if your animal(s) needs any additional care such as medication administration or needs to be kept separate from other animals, and I will be more than happy to accommodate your animal’s needs. My dogs will need to come with me for overnight housesitting. There will also be an opportunity to become a private client to avoid the insane Rover fees, so you can save money and I get the full amount that you pay! (Currently, Rover takes 20% of my pay AND charges you even extra!) Just let me know what time works for you and I will do my best to accommodate time you need. I will do my best to be flexible and use effective communication with all my clients. I have 2 dogs, an almost 4 year old cattle dog and a 2 year old golden retriever. I also have 2 cats at home. Let me know in advance if your animal(s) are reactive or aggressive to people or dogs. All dogs will have plenty of training, physical and mental exercise, love, and anything else that they need during the day. They will be treated as if they’re my own whether I’m house sitting at your house or just doing a drop in visit.
About: I have owned a dog and 2 cats for a year now. I have always been around animals growing up. I love taking dogs on walks and playing with furry friends. I’m currently working part time so I have some time to spare. Due to this, my work schedule isn’t always the same each month. But I would love to make some time to help take care of some cute doggies and cats! I have taken care of different kinds of dogs. I rescued a dog from the shelter so I have experience with taking care of animals that can be a bit more difficult. I am willing to clean up messes. I am very patient with animals and I will give them lots of love:)

Elizabet S.
“Elizabeth has been over to watch our 2 dogs many times and they absolutely love her, including our grouchy Beagle who doesn’t get alone with most people. She has shown great compassion for all animals that I’ve seen her with and has a dog of her own that she treats like family. She is patient and understanding to our dogs even when they are not at their best behavior. I recommend Elizabeth to anyone who is wanting their dogs or cats taken good care of. She is also capable of walking with them with no issues.”
