About: I’ve cared for dogs for over 50 years. They’ve been my loyal, playful companions, and I provide patient, loving care to every pup I meet. With an open daily schedule, I’m able to focus fully on pet care, giving dogs steady attention, exercise, and a calm, reliable presence you can trust. I am happy to care for your pets in your home. I am also available to bring them to my home if they get along with my three dogs. Pets in my care enjoy daily walks, quality meals, and a loving home environment. They’re treated like family, with comfort, safety, and companionship every day.

About: I’ve been a passionate dog mom since college and have years of experience caring for both dogs and cats for neighbors, friends, and family. I’m also the proud parent of two wonderful Bernedoodles (a 3-year-old and a 2-year-old!), so I am completely in my element managing multiple pets, handling high-energy dogs, and keeping up with active routines. Having my own fur babies means I deeply understand how important consistency, structure, and endless affection are to a pet's well-being. Whether your dog needs a brisk, energetic walk and plenty of playtime, or they prefer a quiet, patient companionship, I tailor my care to match each pet’s unique personality. I am highly reliable, detail-oriented, and dedicated to providing a safe, happy environment so you can have total peace of mind while you're away! I have a highly flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of quality time to your pets. Because I manage my own hours, I am able to accommodate frequent potty breaks, structured feeding times, and regular exercise throughout the day. Whether your pet needs a high-energy afternoon walk or consistent companionship, I can easily adapt my daily routine to match theirs. As the parent of two young, high-energy Bernedoodles, safety and environment are my top priorities. My home features a fully fenced backyard, making frequent potty breaks safe and easy, and we are just a 5-minute walk away from a wonderful neighborhood park for structured exercise. I am very familiar with managing different pet personalities and energy levels. I know how to structure the day so every animal gets the right amount of attention, and I can easily keep pets separated for meals, naps, or downtime to ensure a peaceful and secure environment. You can rest assured your fur babies will be cared for in a structured, loving, and highly attentive home!

About: Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember! From snow days and trampoline adventures with my dog Bear to life with my two loyal Rhodesian Ridgebacks, animals have always been my happy place. These days, our sweet rescue Stella keeps life calm and cozy, and I still find that animals naturally seem to trust and connect with me. I’ve even taken obedience training classes because I genuinely love learning more about dog behavior and communication. I’m comfortable with energetic pups, gentle seniors, big dogs, little dogs, and yes — cats too (even if we can’t have them at home because of allergies). My goal is always to make pets feel safe, loved, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into our family’s daily routine. I’m a teacher, so I’m home during summers and school breaks, including two weeks each in fall, winter, and spring. My work schedule when teaching allows me to stop by home during lunch to check in on pets and I’m home by 3:30 PM leaving the evening open for playtime and companionship. Our two boys (13 and 15) also love animals and are learning responsibility by helping care for pets alongside me — giving extra love, playtime, walks, and attention. As a family, we’re able to comfortably provide care in our home or stop by for feedings, walks, check-ins, and play visits throughout the day. During the school year, I’m available before 7:00 AM and after 3:30 PM. I care for pets like they’re part of the family! I love greeting them with excitement, giving them attention, playtime, cuddles, and making sure they feel comfortable and loved while you’re away. I enjoy taking dogs on walks or runs, playing fetch, and honestly love when they get the zoomies and show their personalities. Safety is always a priority. In our home, pets are supervised and can be safely crated or given their own quiet room if needed for rest, comfort, or separation. We have a fully fenced yard for outdoor play and a dog door so pets can move in and out comfortably throughout the day. We do have a pool that is not fenced, so I make sure dogs are monitored outside and will always follow the owner’s instructions regarding outdoor access and supervision. Whether caring for pets in my home or yours, my goal is to make them feel safe, happy, exercised, and loved.

“Ada took great care of my puppy! I’m so grateful because I am a worrier. She is a very careful person like me and I’m happy to have found her.”

“Stephanie and her pack were great with Chai! I appreciated their patience with my shy little guy. Great to find a compatible pack so close by.”

About: Animals have been part of my life since childhood. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to care for their pets for decades, and as a dog mom myself, I understand how much trust it takes to leave a beloved pet in someone else's care. My Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Taylor, came to us at just 8 weeks old with Parvo. Caring for her around the clock until she fully recovered taught me patience, attentiveness, and how important it is to notice the little things that tell you how a pet is feeling. She's now a healthy, happy five yr old who loves other animals. I work remotely from the main living area of the home, so pets are rarely alone. My workspace allows me to keep an eye on them throughout the day and easily step outside for potty breaks, playtime, or simply some fresh air and companionship between meetings. They also can freely use the doggy doors to the yard. Whether I'm caring for energetic puppies, senior dogs, or those who simply miss their family, I follow their routines closely, provide lots of affection and enrichment, and send regular updates so you can relax knowing your pets and your home are in caring, dependable hands. I work remotely Monday through Friday, so pets in my care enjoy companionship throughout the day rather than being left alone while I'm at work. My desk is set up in the main living area, which means I'm naturally where pets like to spend their time. Whether your dog wants to nap nearby, play in the yard, or simply have someone close for reassurance, I'm there. I typically only leave briefly for my daughter's school drop-off and pickup, so your pets can enjoy a consistent routine with plenty of attention, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and cuddles. I provide a calm, attentive home environment and closely follow each dog’s feeding, medication, exercise and sleeping routines. Our yard is fenced and provides plenty of supervised space for safe potty breaks and play. I have two friendly dogs, and I introduce all dogs carefully to ensure everyone feels comfortable. I can also separate or crate dogs when requested, including during meals, rest periods or when I briefly leave the house. I provide regular updates so you know your dog is safe, comfortable and well cared for. Please note that I do have a pool, so I will need to know whether your dog can swim or has any safety concerns around water.

About: I have had a dog since I was a child and have cared for all types of dogs, from a mini dachshund to a great dane mix. I have experience with shelters dogs, dogs with anxiety, and service dogs. I currently work from home and do not have a set schedule. I do have family dinners sunday nights and am typically gone around 4 hours but otherwise, I am typically only gone an hour or so every few days. I live in an apartment but love taking the dogs out on long walks every few hours. I have a retired service dog who will keep your dog company.

“Cindy is fantastic. Our dog spent a few workdays while one of us was traveling, and he clearly felt comfortable and happy while at the same time Cindy provided a structured, calm, and enriching environment for him. He got walks and puzzles and even another dog friend to play with on occasion. Cindy was very patient, attentive, and kind. She has an excellent confident demeanor and establishes boundaries effectively and naturally with the pups. I would recommend Cindy in a heartbeat.”
