“Amanda J. took great care of my precious 16 year old cat. I will be happy to use her again someday as the need arises, and highly recommend her. She's reliable and kind!”


“Julia was amazing! She was great at communicating and giving me updates. She went above and beyond in every step of the process. Not only that, it was clear that she genuinely cared about my fur babies. I highly recommend her for anything you might need.”


“Peggy is excellent to work with and my puppies love her. She is conscientious and provides great service. She provides fresh water and cleans up after the boys. She sends pics too!”


“Wish I could leave more stars. Sarah was fantastic and I so loved the updates and pictures with each visit. I could see how comfortable the my pups were. It was my first time leaving the pups for an extended time but on the pre-visit I felt much more comfortable given Sarah’s interaction with the girls and her questions that showed how she thinks of everything. I came home to very happy dogs and my house and yard looked fantastic.”


About: I’ve grown up surrounded by pets—dogs, cats, ferrets, even lizards—and I’ve cared for a wide variety of breeds, sizes, and personalities. From energetic puppies to laid-back seniors, I treat every animal like my own, with love and attention. I offer dog sitting, walking, and drop-in visits at your home, ensuring your pet feels comfortable in their own space. I carry my own trash bags for walks and provide plenty of exercise, affection, and attention. I also take pride in keeping your home clean and tidy during my stay. Before starting, I always do a meet-and-greet to ensure we’re a good fit and to discuss your pet’s needs. Let’s chat about how I can make your pet feel at ease while you're away! I have a very flexible schedule and can accommodate to most pet care needs. I am available on weekdays all hours of the day, as for weekends Friday-Saturday I have full availability however Sunday's I will always have off for self care and cleaning up my home. I provide personalized care for your pets in their own enviornment, ensuring they stay comfortable and safe. I follow their routines, offer plenty of attention, and keep your home tidy. I have loads of energy and can give your pet constant attention


“Suzanne is great. My dog is a rescue and very shy. Suzanne stayed an hour for our meet-and-greet so my dog would get used to her. She brought her dog Rosco to the first drop in visit and the pups got along great. She also sent plenty of videos and pictures during the visit which made us feel better. Suzanne has great patience for shy dogs and we are lucky to have her. Thanks Suzanne and Rosco!”


“Michelle was great with our cats. I really appreciated that she always sent an update and pictures when she did drop in visits. Great communication and bery easy to work with. I’ll definitely use her again!”


“Katie was amazing! With Peanut recently going blind and our honeymoon coming up, we couldn't board him and needed someone to come and give him his oral meds/insulin injections. She took the time to come by to watch me do his feeding/injections and was able to do the same without any issues! Highly recommend her services!”


About: As an owner of a senior puppy-mill-rescued beagle, I'm familiar with some of the difficulties some pets may face in their day to day lives. Pet solutions aren't just one size fits all- and adapting my care style to fit your pet's goals and personality is my specialty. From high energy play sessions to long naps in the yard, I look to give your pet the best experience I can. I'm currently working part time, but my hours are fairly flexible. I have open availabilities on weekdays, specifically mornings, but if your pet needs a little extra attention, I'm more than happy to make more room! I'm available for dog walking, daily visits, and overnight stays for any pet that may need a friend while their main person is away. With over 3 years of professional pet experience (and many more years of being a dog owner) I believe your furry friends deserve the highest care and attention when their people are away. I have experience in dog walking, medicine distribution, behavior analysis, and animal enrichment and engagement. My experience working in an animal shelter gives me a wide view of the different perspectives and angles that care can show up in.

About: At my home, your dog is treated like family. My background is in education, so I’ve had the unique experience of learning to take care of dogs as well as children. I grew up with a Labrador, and currently own a 5 year old rescue male who gets along wonderfully with other dogs. I provide compassionate, one-on-one care tailored to your dog’s unique needs and behaviors. My home offers doggy socialization, playtime, and cuddles. I am attentive to every detail—ensuring a safe, loving, and stress-free experience while your dog is away from you. I work from home 3 days a week, and have flexibility to take your dog out for breaks and playtime when needed. Weekends I will be home all day! I have a fenced yard and a cozy house that has space for doggie beds or a crate if needed. My own dog has toys he’s willing to share, and the dogs have space to run around in the back.

About: I’ve cared for dogs my whole life, and it’s something I’m truly passionate about. I have hands-on experience with senior dogs, puppies, and dogs with special needs. I’m confident handling emergency situations and have de-escalated dog fights calmly and safely. I always approach each pup with patience, love, and attentiveness — making sure they feel safe, respected, and genuinely cherished while you’re away. Dogs deserve to be heard. I’m currently self employed, with a flexible schedule. i’m pretty open to anything. My goal is to eventually make this full time so i can solely dedicate myself. I offer safe, fun, and loving care for any dog—whether we’re out on a walk, playing at home, or spending the night together. I always stay aware of our surroundings and adjust based on any dog’s needs, whether that means avoiding crowded areas, managing leash reactivity, or keeping things calm for seniors and anxious pups. At the same time, I love making things fun—whether it’s a game of hide the toy/treat & seek, fetch, long or short walks, or just some cozy snuggle time. Whether I’m visiting for playtime, going for walks, or staying overnight, I make sure every dog feels safe, happy, and completely loved in any environment. I connect with animals on a deeper level, so my passion for caring pets is genuine. My dogs are literally my soulmate, we understand each other.

About: I’ve always had a love for animals since I was a kid. I’ve taken care of dogs and cats as if they were my own. Family and friends have entrusted me to care for their pets and I’ve given my full attention to them and their needs from playing with high energy dogs to making sure cats are comfortable and safe depending on their mood. I am currently working full time during weekdays but am available after 5pm. I do get every other Friday off and am off weekends. I am available after work for walks or during my days off. Also, for boarding I am available on Fridays and weekends. I have a fenced yard and no kids in my household. That way your pet has all the space and attention I will give him/her. I will treat them as if they are my own and to make sure they are offered the best service, I will accommodate if needed and ask owners all the preferences their pets have.

About: Hi! Please call me Em! My first dog was a german shepherd at 10 years old. Since then, I've also lived with a black lab. I currently have a 2 year old weimaraner. I have the most experience working with older/senior dogs and administering oral medicine. I'll ensure your pet is comfortable and has its needs met! I'm currently a college student looking for work over the summer. I have plenty of free time to check in on your pets, play with them, and hang out! As long as I get specific instructions and information about your pets, habits, and behavior, they will be taken care of! I'd love to know as much as I can so I can provide the best care for your pets.
