Robin is the best! I never worry about my babies when she has them. She keeps me informed how things are going and that's a comfort as well.

Garrison was amazing! Our dog got hurt before we left and he was so caring and patient with her. He played so much with our cat that I think he will find us boring now that we’re home. He kept the house so clean and updated us so much. I will definitely use him in the future and so should YOU!

About: I would love to care for your fur babies! I've had dogs and cats since I was in fourth grade and have lots of experience with all stages of animals' lives. References available upon request. I have fostered medical and non-medical dogs and administered medications as well. Additionally, I volunteer with a pig and farm animal rescue sanctuary doing various jobs needed around the farm. I will give your fur babies the love and care that I give my own. I look forward to hearing from you! I'm currently working full-time, but I'll have plenty of time to play with your pets! I'm available for visits on weekends any time, and weekdays after 2:30 pm. My work hours are 7:00 am to 2:30 pm and I will spend the rest of my time with your pet. I am a very loving pet person and will treat your fur babies with the utmost care, attention to detail and follow your instructions down to the letter because I know that a routine is important for a pet, especially when their owner is away.

Ciara was excellent with our dogs. She was easy to communicate with and the dogs seemed to get along well with her. She sent several photos while watching them. We don’t usually travel without our dogs, but we would definitely rebook with Ciara if we were not able to take them with us.

Haley is great! She cared for our dog, Lucy, for 12 days while we were on vacation. She was respectful of our home and a great communicator. She sent us frequent updates and let us know if she noticed Lucy acting out of the norm.

About: With over a decade of experience in animal husbandry, I care for pets of all ages and species. I’ve provided reliable pet sitting through college and now as a biology professor, handling everything from daily routines to medications and special needs. My goal is to keep your pets comfortable, happy, and cared for just as if you were home. Flexible for mornings, nights, and extended stays. I teach from morning to midday on weekdays. I usually wake up early to spend time with client’s pets or my own and have plenty of time to work in enrichment time and meals in the evening. It’s very important to me to provide a sense of normalcy to your pet. I may start out as a stranger but your pet and I will soon become best buds. I keep a strict schedule for check ins and they very quickly pick up that I’m keeping with the program and this eliminates a lot of their stress. I prefer to stay in your home and stick to your walk schedule (unless you’d like a field trip to a walking trail) so that the only change they have to deal with is missing you!

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats since I was 10 years old. Growing up with pets taught me how to handle all kinds of breeds, personalities, and needs from feeding and walking to bath time and snuggles. Friends, neighbors, and family have always trusted me to love on their fur babies like they were my own. Whether it’s playful pups or older pets who need extra patience, I show up with love, reliability, and experience. I work full-time, but I’m still available for evening walks, drop ins, and weekend care. My schedule stays consistent, and I always make time to give your pet the attention and care they need. Whether it’s playtime after work or overnight boarding on weekends, I’ve got you cover I don’t have a fenced yard, but I live near a big open field and have a dog park right in my complex plenty of space for safe outdoor play. I’m mindful, attentive, and follow your pet’s routine closely. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness always come first.

I have many toys and space for play, I can accommodate crates or other needed accessories to help your fur baby and create that home away from home feeling. I have oncle cat that has been raised around cats, dogs, children, and other small animals, he's friendly with everyone. I can do overnights or drop ins for those unexpected life moments. I'm near many parks and trails so your fur baby would get the exercise they need.
