About: With extensive pet care experience, I've adeptly provided compassionate and responsible care to a variety of animals through fostering programs and the rescuing of my own animals. My expertise includes feeding, grooming, administering medications, and maintaining a safe and stimulating environment. I am committed to ensuring the well-being and happiness of pets, making me a reliable and trusted caregiver! I work from home and look for any and every opportunity to play with my pup throughout the stressful work day! I am usually home on the weekends as well so your furry friend will be showered with attention and never left unattended. I create a nurturing environment, tailored to each pet's unique needs, ensuring a positive and stress-free experience for both pets and their owners. As a fellow pet owner and lover, I know leaving a family member with someone requires a lot of trust which is why I provide reliable and responsive communication at all times. I have a large fenced in backyard where my great dane welcomes visitors of all ages & sizes!

“Excellent! We are so happy to have found Kaitlyn. Highly recommended. Our anxious Aussie warned up to her really fast! Planning to use again soon.”


About: I have been a pet owner for the majority of my life. I helped raise my two German shepherds and my Jack Russell Terrier. I currently have a Catahoula puppy that I spoil. I currently have plenty of time to watch and get to know your pets. My schedule is Monday through Friday 8am to 5pm I can also be available on Saturdays. I am comfortable taking your pet for long walks through the neighborhood or having a fun play session at a local park or dog park.

About: Boarding: Dogs must be crate trained and vaccinations up to date. Must be kid friendly and do well with large dogs. I have a large, shaded back yard where we can play with toys or fetch. Walk around the quiet neighborhood or take a nap and cuddle. I have an active golden doodle who can’t wait to have a play buddy. I will happily take your dog on walks, play their favorite game and keep a structured routine if needed. Administer topical, injection or oral meds. Meet and greets preferred prior to care. I am currently working from home and have a large shaded yard. Which means potty breaks and outside play and relax time are always available. I will make sure your pets schedule is followed so you can be sure your pet will have fun and be cared for while you are away. My home is doggie safe. Minimalistic feel with little to no clutter. Space for your dog to stretch out and relax. Separate room with crate for sleep and/or alone time if needed. If I leave the house crate trained dogs can safely stay in crate with water and food. Feedings can be done separate if needed. Please bring leash, water and food bowl, and favorite treats. Do not bring toys because they will be enjoyed and destroyed by my dog.

“Not only is Michael a wonderful friend with a big heart, but he’s a huge animal lover. I travel often for work, and he’s always my first call to watch my pup. My dog Waylon gets so excited when he sees him walking up my sidewalk, and they’re inseparable when he’s here. All of our mutual friends’ dogs adore him and my former roommate’s cat, who normally doesn’t like men at all, constantly snuggled with him when he came over. Wonderful sitter.”

“My experience with Kimberly was amazing! She stopped by regularly to feed my dog and let him out while we were away, and even sent me adorable photo updates that gave me so much peace of mind.

“Nidia took great care of Craig and Baby D. They were happy to see me, but we’re sad to say goodbye. She sent me updates every day while I was on my cruise. I had a lot of anxiety about leaving my babies, but she made it great. She also offers dog portraits and family photos. Great way to capture memories will be using again next time I go on a cruise again.”
