About: I have always been a lover of animals. I grew up with cats, dogs, rabbits, guniea pigs, and hamsters. Every single animal I’ve had has been given the love they deserve. Giving them all their play time, I have a huge fenced in yard for dogs to run around in and play fetch. If pets need their own space, I can accommodate that. If you need me to take extra time out for them I can offer that as well! I’m here to help! I am a hairstylist by trade for 27 years and love what I do, I work part time to be home more with my children. Being a hairstylist, I love helping my clients look and feel good. That being said, I figured I can help people in other ways as well and being that I love animals, why not help people with their pets by taking care of them! I take my dog on daily walks, except for Tuesdays and Saturdays but those are the days I work in the salon, but my husband takes our dog out. She also will go to my mother's house in the summer to swim with us as she absolutely loves the pool! Being that I am home most of the week, watching dogs fits well into my schedule. I will treat other people's pets as if they were my own. As long as they are potty trained, I will allow them to walk freely in my home, I have a huge fenced in yard for them to run and play. As long as the weather is beautiful out, I will take them on walks as well with my family! Myself and my family will treat your pets as if they were ours! We will show them love the entire time they are with us!

“Morgan was great for multiple check ins with my dog, Juno! She showed up on time, was great with communication with me, and dealt with her crazy energy levels. She gave medication and food at the times we asked. She was great and we’d definitely use her again!”


“Sara is awesome!! Super friendly, reliable, and is great with my dog, Marley!! She made sure he was taken care of, played with him outside, and gave him lots of love and attention.”


“Jacklyn stepped up once again to handle a very last minute request for multiple days of check in care. Her transparency all throughout this process helps put my mind at ease knowing our Bella is getting great care.”


About: I've volunteered with an animal rescue for 8 years now. I know how to administer medicine, handle feral or very anxious furbabies, I'm fearless and very lovable. Animals are the humans most wonderful friends. I know basic dog training as well. I have open availability at this moment in time unless I have planned events. I'm planning to start school soon but most of my classes would be online so I will be home. If you have a certain routine or schedule with your babies I'll do my absolute best to follow in your foot steps for them. ❤️

Isabella H.
“I’m proud to say that it was it was Bella who was the conduit to me rescuing our beloved Shi Tzu, Marley. She knew I wanted to rescue a dog (a Shih Tzu) and when she discovered Marley, she let me know and the rest is history. This happened while she was working full-time at the Associated Humane Society. Bella has a passion for pet care, and it really shows. Perhaps just as important, she has formal training as well as a certificate for Veterinary Assistant. She is trustworthy, experienced and I recommend her without hesitation.”
