About: I’ve taken care of dogs, small and medium, since I was 12. My first dog walking job was when I was a freshman in high school. Every now and then, I’d still watch family members’ dogs. They’ve relied on me to feed and bathe their pets. I’m currently home full-time with my own dog so I have plenty of time to watch other dogs. I am available for overnight stays/day care on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday from 3pm to 8pm. I live in an apartment but I spend most of my time at the dog park that is very close so your dog won’t be cooped inside for too long. I also have a very friendly, energetic beagle/husky mix to keep your pet company. He’s lonely and I try to be as much of a fury friend to him as possible so this will be good for him, too! When we are inside, they will have toys, treats, and their own beds/crates to rest.

“Deacon came home a happy and tired pup! He definitely enjoyed his day with Natalie and Luna and I loved seeing the photos of them playing together!”

About: Cole and I (who will both be caring for your pup) have many years of experience caring for dogs from pet sitting for friends and taking care of family pets throughout our lives. We live in a townhouse with a fenced backyard, and a great neighborhood for long walks. We have one medium-sized dog, Finn (1y/o), who is super friendly and loves to make new dog friends. Having recently gone through the puppy phase with Finn and the senior phase with our family pets, we are well-equipped to handle all phases of your pup's life. I work hybrid (wfh mondays and fridays) and Cole is full time remote, so we have availability to care for your dog all times of the week. We have a fenced-in yard and live in a great neighborhood for long walks. We are close to a fenced-in dog park as well if your dog is comfortable with that. We are flexible with any specific instructions for pets staying with us.

About: I’m well-versed in senior pet care, understanding their unique needs and ensuring they stay comfortable and engaged. I also prioritize building strong relationships with both pets and their owners, fostering trust and communication. My attention to detail, combined with a genuine love for animals, ensures that every pet receives the highest level of care tailored to their individual personality and need. I'm available for boarding pets, dog walks, pet sitting at your home, and can do check-ins at your home! I am available for the entire duration that I have your pet with me. In my apartment, I prioritize safety and comfort for pets by creating a secure environment. I ensure all windows and balconies are safely secured, and I keep hazardous items, like cleaning supplies and small objects, out of reach. For my clients, I follow similar principles. I conduct a thorough walk-through of their home to identify any potential hazards and make adjustments as needed. I also establish a routine that includes regular exercise, playtime, and mental stimulation to keep pets happy and engaged. Building trust is crucial, so I communicate openly with pet owners about their pets’ needs and any concerns that arise. I make sure to maintain a clean and comfortable space, providing plenty of fresh water and a cozy spot for rest. Ultimately, my goal is to create a safe, loving environment where pets can thrive.

“Kayla was awesome! Theo had a great time and she didn’t hesitate to share an update with pics! I will definitely use her again.”

“So happy to have found Nina & Chris for my dog. They were very communicative and gave many updates during the day. We did a daycare text-run ahead of a work trip I have scheduled in a few weeks, to see if my dog fit into their household. Glad things went well!”

“Polly has been going to Clare’s day care for several months and absolutely loves it!”

“Abigail and her super sweet and well behaved pup, Boba, were so welcoming and warm with Willar, my senior chiweenie. Abigail was attentive, asked thoughtful questions, and did a great job with the instructions for Willar's special diet. Abigail catered to Willar's needs which is very comforting for a pet parent of an older dog. I'm very grateful!🙏”
