About: While your pets are in my care, they will be treated as if they were my own. I will assist you in training your puppy to master the basic commands: sit, stay, and come. I am retired so your pet care is my first responsibility. During the summer, I will walk in the morning with potty breaks in the afternoon if it's too hot. During winter, if the weather doesn't permit driving, I will contact you and ensure that as soon as I can drive, I will be there to give your pet much-needed potty breaks and playtime. For more detailed availability, please see my public calendar https://calendar.app.google/1EpS26QNofEFAmsH7 Your pet's safety is my #1 concern. With that in mind, I will only walk when the weather permits. I will give them time to take care of their business and plenty of play time when the weather does not permit a walk.

“Alexis was great with our pup Max. She communicated well before and after the booked walks to make sure that timing worked out. She was friendly and most importantly Max liked her. I would highly recommend Alexis.”


About: I've taken care of a variety of different pets throughout my life. With my own menagerie of cats, ducks, a gecko, a frog, fish, hermit crabs, and shrimp, as well as mini poodles and german shepherds growing up, I am at ease with all kinds of animal care. I am about to start summer break, and will be frequently available. I plan to continue part time sitting once school starts back up in August. Although I am unable to take pets into my apartment, I am more than happy to come take care of them at the place they feel most at home.


“Brittany was GREAT! She came over to meet my babies first and my first thought is “this girl is professional”. My younger dog is a barker and scares easily and she got down on his level immediately with a treat and he warmed up instantly. She walked them and sent me constant updates which I loved ❤️❤️ Highly recommend Brittany and plan on continuing to book her to walk my pups!”

About: I’ve had the joy to work with and own various types of animals throughout my life, from cats and dogs to exotics. I also have experience dealing with special needs and senior animals. I have worked in shelters and vet clinics; this experience gave me skills in administration of oral medication, working and managing multiple animals at once, identifying when an animal is feeling under the weather and understanding animal body language and cues. I completed multiple classes that allowed me to learn both hands on and through bookwork, to acquire my veterinary assisting certification. I have flexible availability all weekdays for drop ins, walks and doggy daycare. I am available for boarding weekdays and weekends. I may be away for a few hours daily, but someone will be home with your pet at all times. Care is tailored to you and your pet’s needs. When it comes to your fur-babies staying in my home, they will be kept separate from our animals, in their own space, which will provide a calmer and less stressful environment for your pet! I will require that each pet staying in my home have their own crate and any other personal things you would like to bring for them to make their stay as happy and comfortable as possible. If you have any special requirements or information that you would like to give me for your pet, I will happily accept and follow it. I understand and respect that every pet is different! All pets, whether boarding or doggy daycare, will get optimal amounts of supervised outside time. I have a large, fenced in back yard that is the perfect place for playtime! If you would prefer a leashed walk for your pet, there is a long, country road with tons of sights and smells for your pet to enjoy that we can walk together! After playtime, plenty of water and cuddles will be provided. They will have plenty of time outside of their crates to hang out with me and explore! If you would like a nail trim or a bath, just let me know before hand and I will be more than happy to do that for you. I look forward to meeting you and your pets!

Jackie M.
“Jackie was an amazing pet sitter numerous times for us! We had two cats, one older and one younger, with the older requiring a lot of detailed care. Jackie always made sure to follow our information, and took amazing care of our older cat. She would provide her with a lot of attention to make sure she ate properly when we were gone, and stayed with both cats anywhere from 30 to 60 minutes to give them company. She would visit twice a day as well, and sent pictures every day to show us how they were doing. The only reason we stopped using her services was because we moved. Basically- my husband and I cannot sing Jackie's praises enough!”
