About: I have owned two dogs and have lots of experience dog walking and dog sitting for dogs of all ages. I have been the sole care provider for my dog and have cared for her in all stages of life. I volunteer at Lollypop Farm as a dog worker and walk with dogs of all ages and sizes every week. I love spending time with each of the dogs and making sure they are well taken care of and feel loved. I work part time and remotely, so I have lots of flexibility and free time to spend with and care for your dog and to give them lots of attention. I can care for your dog at your home by creating a safe environment, showing your dog lots of care and love, and following specific instructions set aside for each individual pet.
“Gabrielle is an absolute pro! She’s super professional and has a calming presence that makes you feel at ease. You can tell she genuinely loves animals. She did wonderful drop ins to support our elderly lab as he does best at home and does have trouble with stairs. She’s a lifesaver! I’d definitely book her again! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Amanda went above and beyond to make sure my my little furballs were not only well taken care of, but that I had peace of mind while I was away. She goes above and beyond and I highly recommend her and her services ?”
About: I love my dogs and I would like to pamper yours in the comfort of their own home during a drop in visit or a four hour day visit. I have 27 years of experience with canines and raised my pup into the dog as seen in the black and white photo. I had a senior dog of his breed years ago. I can do basic training, if you wish, with positive methods: sit, drop, shake, down, stay, etc. I will feed your dog or puppy as per your instructions. Playtime is always a good time when I am around! We have our doggy spa days every 5 weeks: nails, a bath, & a cookie or two. Nap time is at 3PM at home. Cookies/treats are given for training and are a positive reinforcement method. Within the past year, I crate trained my older dog, so that she would go potty outside. She started to forget what to do. I have a fence at my home. My dogs love the fresh air and to chase after the occasional ball. My Polish Hound uses a probiotic in his food for his sensitive stomach. My older Staffie occasionally likes her "special" food. So, I sometimes add a Milo's meatball to her food. Simparica Trio keeps them healthy and happy.
About: I’ve taken care of friends and families pets for 5 years now. I love all animals and believe all pets deserve the best care while their owners are away. I’ve had cats, dogs, hamsters, fish, shrimp, and snails over the years and am comfortable with all kinds of pets! I’ve just returned home from the Disney college program and am off for the summer before I go back to college. I’m very flexible and available for whatever your needs might be any day of the week. I love my pets and their care is a very high priority. I’ll care for your pets as if they are my own and ensure they’re safely cared for while you are away.

About: I have grown up with dogs, cats, and other pets my entire life but have been sitting every now and then since I was around 10! I am currently in High School until June 16th. I have part-time job that I work 4-6 hour shifts a few times a week. I am very flexible and accommodating! I am very understanding and good with routines, I will follow instructions carefully to do the job to the best of my ability every time!
“I can’t say enough good things about Steph. She does a midday check-in for our 1 yo Australian shepherd a few days a week and he absolutely loves her. He can be a little particular about who he decides is part of the pack and Steph was able to warm him up very quickly, no doubt due to her extensive experience with animals. Steph’s communication is excellent, she’s willing to tailor her service to our dog’s needs and I have total peace of mind leaving our fur baby in her hands because she’s proven to be capable and dependable. She’s even brought one of her dogs and/or kids along sometimes to help us socialize him because I mentioned he struggled with those things. 10/10 would recommend booking Steph.”
About: Hi! I’m a dedicated and experienced dog lover with a special place in my heart for rescue dogs and high energy pups. As the owner of a high energy rescue myself, I understand firsthand the patience, structure, and attention these dogs need to truly thrive. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, or reinforcing good habits, I’m committed to helping dogs burn off energy in a healthy, positive way. For energetic dogs, I make sure they get the physical exercise and mental stimulation they need because a tired dog is a happy dog! Safety is always my top priority. I’m attentive, reliable, and treat every dog as if they were my own. I’m happy to tailor each walk to your dog’s personality, energy level, and specific needs, whether that means a brisk adventure or a slower, confidence building stroll. I’d love to meet your pup and help make their day a little brighter! As someone who works in education, I have a lot of availability over the summer as well as school break! I am available on weekends as well!! I can be flexible and fit to your dog’s schedule! Details are my specialty! I make sure to follow each dog’s specified routine and care needs! I make sure your dog is well loved and enjoy giving lots of snuggles!
“Natalie is very sweet and did a great job looking after our dogs. She would send us pictures and updates of the dogs. We absolutely loved working with her, she is very communicative, caring, and she will now be our go to dog sitter!”
“Donna truly understands cats: it's obvious, and my cat Sisu loved her the minute he met her. I came home to happy loving beast, very tidy feeding area, clean cat-box. I have a feeling Donna spent plenty of time cuddling Sisu -- he's usually a lot more antsy when I get home from a trip. Would recommend Donna with my whole heart, and if she's available, request her again. Sisu would be glad to see her as well. If you're looking for super-cat-whisperer, it's Donna. She also, very kindly, brought in the mail.”
About: I worked for a veterinarian throughout high school, undergrad and grad school. Had cats of my own (not currently). Have watched friends dogs over the years. I'm a hiker, so I walk often. I have the summers off. Able to watch/walk/visit your pets most weekends throughout the year. I can walk/play with your dog as early as 4 pm during the week I have a 20 x 20 fenced in patio with pea gravel and acres of green space in my development. There is a high school across the street and I often hike in Webster parks.
“She was very generous with her time. Our cat is very difficult and she handled the challenge with poise and kindness. She communicated very well during each visit and kept us informed.”
“Todd made sure my senior cat got the love and attention he needed while I was away for a week. He even noticed I made a mistake I made in my original booking and modified it for me! Definitely will be rebooking with Todd for any future trips I need to take.”

Emily is absolutely amazing. It’s clear she loves animals and she has a way with them! We’ve been trying to socialize our pup by having more people drop by and Emily was so understanding about the situation! She’s been great with our dog, Rigatoni. She’s patient, kind and knowledgeable!

Sara was great with our furbabies. Our dog Ruaty went for lots of walks and had plenty of playtime. She also took initiative and adjusted the times based on Rusty's needs, took him for walks early on before the weather got too hot, and reached out with questions or any issues that came up. Sara sent photos and updates after each visit and was always responsive when I reached out. We hope to use Sara again when we go away.
