About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them comes naturally. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, from energetic puppies to gentle seniors. I’m confident handling walks, feeding routines, training reinforcement, and giving dogs the exercise and attention they need to stay happy and healthy. Whether it’s belly rubs, playtime, or calm companionship, I treat every dog like my own— with patience, love, and genuine care. Pet care easily fits into my daily routine because I plan my days around it. I make time for regular walks, feeding, play, and check-ins. I’m flexible with scheduling and always ensure each dog gets the right balance of exercise, attention, and rest throughout the day. I prioritize safety and comfort in every situation. I follow each pet’s routine closely, keep their environment clean, and ensure they’re always supervised. I take time to earn each dog’s trust, using positive energy and calm interactions. Whether in my home or yours, pets stay in a secure, loving, and stress-free environment.

About: I’ve grown up with animals, specifically Maltese dogs. I enjoy meeting new ones to help a pet owner or a friend out. I really like taking my friends pets for hikes. I have worked in pet stores and have taken a course on exotic animals. I have experience caring for hamsters and hedgehogs. While I don’t pick favorite dogs, my favorite breed of dog is the Sheltie! If your pup is a Shetland sheepdog, I’ll offer discounted rates:) I am currently a college student and my schedule is currently flexible with availability. I can work with you to help you find the right fit. I have two small dogs myself and cannot provide in house for an extended period of time with a larger animal. Have a partially fenced house

Natasha is always very great with my pup! My pup was being difficult about putting the harness on and she stayed a little extra to ensure she was taken care of. Thank you Natasha!

About: I’ve had cats my entire life and a dog since I was ten. I’ve also been volunteering at animal shelters since the beginning of 2024! I have a calm energy which is great for putting anxious pets at ease. I have the most experience with small dogs but love dogs of all sizes! I have the most availability on weekends but I have no problem making weeknight visits to provide your pets with the care they deserve! I have my own car so transportation is not an issue. Pet safety whether out and about or in your home is my top priority! I am careful to observe animal body language so I can better know when to give a pet space or remove them from a distressing situation. If you have any care or safety concerns that are specific to your home or pet, do not hesitate to let me know!

About: When dogs are here boarding they have their own space furnished with a TV, couches, a dog door that leads to a fenced in yard where they have access to 24/7 unless their owners advise otherwise. I own a dog walking and boarding as a full time business. I currently walk dogs part time and am gone for around 3-4 hours a day depending on the day of the week, but that doesn’t stop your dog from being able to go outside. I have a fenced in yard where your dog can play in at their leisure. We can also go for walks up at the trails in Grafton for the dogs that need extra time to get their energy out.

I like Loren a lot. She's down-to-earth and easy to communicate with. My two kitties seemed to feel really comfortable with her from the very first moment. She was conscientious about following my instructions, and I am happy with the care she gave. I trust Loren and will request her services again in the future.

Celeste is absolutely wonderful - she came through at the last minute to help us with our cats, and was a godsend. She is an excellent communicator and was an immediate hit with our cats. She went above and beyond making sure all was well with them. I would not hesitate to recommend her for cat or dog care.

About: I have always taken care of pets in a way that is personal, individual and all about making them feel loved. I never like when I have to close the door to leave! I can walk, board or visit your pets after working hours during the "school year" and have a lot of availability in the summer! I can do either 2 or 3 visits a day for varying times! I am incredibly careful and I like to play and talk to pets constantly:) I love to let them be as free and included for as much of the day as possible!

Anna is literally the best! She has been doing drop in visits for only a week and I feel so comfortable not only with my babies but having her in my home. She takes the time to give me a detailed report of how the visit went and what they are up to! Thank you so much Anna! We appreciate all that you do!
