Jessi is great with communication and putting my girls first. She took time to meet them prior to the first solo visit and took extra care to go at their speed. Both of my dogs are rescues with one being extra hesitate around new people. She did a wonderful job going at address June's needs especially.

About: My specialty is meeting pets where they’re at. I’ve been caring for animals for over 8 years and have experience with just about every personality and life stage—from energetic puppies and curious kittens to senior and geriatric pets who need a little extra patience and care. I’m comfortable caring for dogs, cats, birds, rodents, tortoises, and more, and I always stick closely to each pet’s routine, so they feel safe and at ease. Whether your pet wants long walks and playtime or quiet companionship and gentle care, I’m happy to adjust. I take pride in being dependable, attentive, and genuinely invested in every animal I care for, which has helped me maintain 100% customer satisfaction over the years. I have a very flexible schedule and make pet care a true priority in my routine. While I do work full-time, it never gets in the way of providing meaningful, attentive care. I work remotely on Mondays and Fridays, which gives me extra flexibility and availability on those days. I’m fully available Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays, and Mondays for sitting, drop-ins, and extended care. On Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, I’m available after 5pm—these evenings are perfect for walks, check-ins, and giving pets some extra attention after their day. I’m great at planning ahead, sticking to routines, and making sure every pet gets the time and care they deserve. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat both the space and the animals with the same respect and attention I would my own. I follow all care instructions closely, stick to established routines, and make safety my top priority at all times. I’m mindful of doors, gates, leashes, and feeding guidelines, and I’m experienced with administering medications and supporting senior or special-needs pets when needed. I keep homes clean and secure, provide regular updates and photos, and make sure pets feel comfortable, calm, and cared for in their familiar environment. My goal is always to create a stress-free experience for both pets and owners, so you can feel confident and at ease while you’re away.

About: Hello! My name is Kasey and I absolutely LOVE dogs. My whole life I have been a dog lover. I like big dogs, small dogs, and anywhere in between. I live in large house with plenty of space for your dog to roam and have a large, fenced back yard for exercise. Dogs are allowed on furniture in this house! I will watch your dog during the day or over night. I also offer drop-in visits and dog walking. I am home during the day, most days of the week, and can let your dog out to play or run or go potty frequently. I love to snuggle with dogs so don't worry about your dog feeling lonely. If dogs want to feel the comfort of their kennel or crate that is fine too. This is a loving home for all dogs.

About: As a former dog-dad (and current dog-uncle), I understand the importance of knowing your pup is cared for while you take the time away from them that you need to. I provided specific instructions and tools to help dog-sitters take care of mine, and now I would love to help take care of yours! And who best to help me do that than, well, you! I am committed to gathering and using all you can offer to ensure that while in my care, your dog's life remains as consistent as possible. And maybe, with your permission, some extra treats for good measure :) Having gotten to know and love up to 7 dogs in my family, I know firsthand that dogs have their own specific personalities to be respected and needs to be met. All of the dogs I have gotten to know in my family have been rescues so I am very experienced in meeting them where they're at in terms of past trauma and comfort levels. Your dog's safety and comfort will be my #1 priority -- I feel strongly that is the very least that every living creature deserves. I hope to be allowed the opportunity to meet you and my next best pal! And yes, I will gladly send you as many photos and videos as you'd like so you never feel too far away from baby <3 Right now, my schedule is very flexible and can be fit around your dog's needs and routines! Whether they need more frequent potty breaks or longer daily walks around your neighborhood, I'll make it work! I could certainly use a bit more exercise :) At the end of the day, it is your dog and your home so I will follow your lead on how to provide the most comfortable and safe environment and experience while your dog is in my care. When in doubt, I feel it is best to reach out with questions or concerns that may come up. When it comes to dog-sitting, no instructions can be too specific.

Lauchlan is wonderful with dogs! Our dog Snoopy is very shy and wary of strangers, but she took the time to do a meet and greet with us before the first walk, so he could warm up to her. Their first walk today went great. She is calm and caring. Highly recommend Lauchlan to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive dog walker.

Shelly has been amazing! I’ve used both recurring weekly and when needed in a pinch. I have a needy older dog who is not the easiest to walk sometimes, but she always manages to get him out and give extra cuddles. I would highly recommend!

This is second time Ive used Sarah. An absolute pleasure to work with. This call was a last minute emergency and she was so happy she could help. My Zoe is 15 and is a little slower and double coated so I like to walk her in shade. Little special rituals Zoe and me do together she was kind to accommodate. Zoe loves her and waits on front bed for her. Its difficult to leave Zoe for trips away from her And now I have peace of mind knowing how gentle and generous Sarah is with Zoe when I have to be away. Sarah is a gem.
