About: I've taken care of dogs of every kind since I was a young child. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets. I'm currently working part time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I'm available for boarding at anytime Tuesday through Friday. I have a fenced yard and one friendly dog to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed. Special requests are subject for review.

“Brittany was a lifesaver for me last week! I messaged last minute needing a drop-in sitter for my cat while I was going to be out of town. She responded almost immediately and was extremely communicative, providing photos, and lots of love to Rodger while I was away. She filled up food, water and made sure he had all his needs met. He was a happy boy upon my return and I am so grateful!”


“Dustin has made my first time experience with Rover amazing. He made sure to keep me updated with how Bella responded to him and took pictures on their walk. He definitely treated her like his own. He made her really happy during his visits. I would definitely use him again. 10/10”

About: I’ve grown up with a small dog for 12 years and taken care of family and friend’s dog. I can walk, bathe, feed, relax, and play with them! I work from home so my schedule is fairly flexible. I can make myself free after work to take care of your fur babies as well! I have a large fenced backyard and live in a quiet and friendly neighborhood. I am a type A person and will always have an eye on them especially if outside during the heat. I have no children and no pets so your pup will have my heart the entire time 💜

About: Experienced pet sitter skilled in puppy training and senior care. I offer tailored walks, pet first aid, and reliable service with daily updates, ensuring your pet’s happiness. I am currently unemployed, so my hours are very flexible throughout the day to come and be your pet’s personal assistant, and best of friend! I currently have a 2 year old dog named Beau, and I have two cats named Lucy and Chloe. They are super spoiled and I am so lucky to have them!

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have always had a deep love for their care and well-being. I worked in a veterinary clinic for nearly two years, where I gained hands-on experience with animals of all ages—from playful puppies to sweet senior pets. I’m currently a veterinary student at Tuskegee University, so I bring both professional training and real-world experience to every pet I care for. I’m confident in administering medications, monitoring health needs, and making sure your furry family member feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. As a veterinary student, I’ve built a routine that’s structured yet flexible enough to include pet care. Most of my classes are in the mornings and early afternoons, with free time in the evenings and weekends. I also have long breaks between classes on certain days and a lighter schedule on Fridays. This allows me to provide attentive, consistent care—whether it’s walks, check-ins, or overnight stays. I’m reliable, responsive, and passionate about making sure your pet feels safe and loved while you’re away. When caring for pets in my home, safety and comfort come first. I have a securely fenced yard with cameras for supervised outdoor playtime, and pets get at least 30 minutes of exercise and enrichment outside at least 2-3 times each day. I share my home with two friendly pets, but visiting animals are never left unsupervised with them—I always monitor all interactions carefully. I also have a large crate available if a pet needs their own space or downtime. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or at a client’s, I aim to provide a calm, structured, and loving environment where every animal feels safe and at ease.

About: I give lots of love, daily updates, and a calm home. I’m great with senior dogs, shy pups, and keeping routines just like home would. I'm free all summer long, so your pet will get plenty of time, attention, and care every day—morning, afternoon, and evening, with extra playtime too! I create a calm, safe space where pets feel at home. I follow their routines, give lots of love, and always put their safety first.

About: I am a believer is rescues! I have rescued all my dogs including a pitbull, a chihuahua, a mini schnauzer, and we’re not sure what Ramsey is. I enjoy dogs of all sizes and skill, from the highly motivated for activity to the snuggly couch potatoes. I enjoy seeing their personalities come out as they become comfortable in our home and begin to trust. I have taken the time to try and teach my rescues good habits, but also loving them through the bad ones. I enjoy teaching basic commands and leash training. Currently, I am graduating from nursing school and will have an open schedule until the end of June. I am able to work around any schedule within reason. I will be happy to play with your fur babies as much as they require, and to keep them safe as we take our walks or runs!

“Ashlynn watched over my fur babies twice a week for three weeks and was AMAZING!! She was on time for every visit, stayed for the entirety of the time booked, and truly went above what was asked of her! She communicated well with me even with a substantial time difference and made sure my babies had what they needed! I will definitely be using Ashlynn in the future!!”

Jonathon W.
“Jonathon went above and beyond when he watched my chihuahua Nahla. I would say he's the best dog sitter I've ever had! He always made sure Nahla was getting enough exercise and loves while I was away at work during the day. He even bathed her a few times when she'd gotten herself into a mess. If you choose Jonathon as your dog sitter he will not let you down.”
