“We had a very chaotic week from an ER visit to the emergence of separation anxiety. Jessica did a great job helping us out and calming our nerves. She was great with our dogs and I would recommend her to other dog parents.”
“It was too wet/rainy outside to walk Gidget, but I kept the appointment time anyway. I wanted to start once a week walks for Gidget to get used to seeing Katie around before house sitting for us. Hubby said that she took the time to get to know her and vice versa. Very pleased with Katie.”
“Jane is really the sweetest and so accommodating. She stays in communication during the walk before and after. Our Pup really enjoys her, so much he couldn’t wait to get in the crate today and have me leave for work so he could go for a walk with her ❤️?”
“Sarah and her family are a joy and took such good care of Monty while we were away. We loved the note and photo they left for us at the end of their care. I highly recommend them!”
“Kaitlyn was AMAZING with my dog Mina. Mina is on the older side and has trouble walking sometimes. She took her time with her and Mina got a full walk. I cannot thank Kaitlyn enough for her care and compassion for Mina.”
About: I have worked with dog trainers so I know some training skills needed to help some pups. I also can administer meds if needed. I have had farm animals so I have that experience as well. I am looking to fill some time with some animals because of my love for them. I take care of everything from farm animals to cats. I can watch small dogs at my home. I have gates and a safe environment. I am more than willing to watch pets in the clients home to make them feel safe.
“Derek was great with Jasper. He was able to assist us with walking him on short notice, and was very responsive and communicative. I would recommend Derek to anyone who needs their pup walked!”
About: Because Your Pet Deserves the Best, Even When You’re Away. I will care for your pet small, large, fluffy or feathery when you can't. Sometimes things come up or a well deserved vacation... there is no need when you pick me to worry about your loved pet family. I will treat them with respect, compassion, and love they deserve. I know that they are missing you. I will make sure that they have their own mini getaway when I am with them. This can be a walk, cuddles, or just tossing the ball. I can do stop ins for potty and food.. I can stop in and take them for a walk, or just stop in and play with them. I love all weather and am prepared for anything. Snow, rain, cold or storm. I am a stay at home mom who like any mom I am ready for anything. Last minute appointment (we all know that unexpected things happen. Don't worry about your pet message me), cleanups, accidents, snacks,protective (nothing will happen to your loved one with me), and even fun days outs. I am a mom and I am always ready for anything. It would be a honor to be invited to your home to check in on your loved one. I am extremely flexible and would enjoy meeting your pets. I would always treat your animals as I would want mine to be treated.
About: I’ve done rescue work on the side for a cat shelter, including medical fostering. I’ve worked for an emergency/specialty vet as a technician assistant. I have several reoccurring clients on & off of here. Love all pets! I have a 3 legged kitten and have done specialized care for kittens with eye issues and bottle fed kittens. I have no issues giving meds or helping with prescription diets. I have experience with bearded dragons and other reptiles as well. I can always send pics of my work! My labradoodle and his siblings somehow manage to befriend every dog we take care of and we always love new friends! I have plenty of references besides what is on here as well and there’s some before & afters of foster kittens I’ve done medical stuff with. I have 4 dogs of my own, a dorkie, a chihuahua, a labradoodle and a goldendoodle - we stay very active all the time. Walks, treats & playing, and my labradoodle loves to swim! My Labradoodle enjoys visiting people and it’s not uncommon for us to venture out just for a pup cup or a ride around town. I also have my rescue cats who I love! I’ve worked for an emergency/specialty vet along with a general practice vet and am always trying to further my education! Everyone is always leashed and I take my time depending on the animals abilities/etc when walking or playing. I’m more than familiar with litter boxes and etc and don’t mind spending time with pets. We always have time for socialization and visiting with people- I frequent some businesses that LOVE to see dogs!

About: Hello! I'm Jenny. I've been around animals my whole life from growing up on a farm and owning my own horses to raising puppies and kittens. In 2013, I took and passed a vet-tech certification program through a local accredited college. Although some details may be out of dated the general practices remain the same. I will always respect your wishes as I know you care about your babies as much I care about mine. I also have experience with chickens, fish (tank & pond), horses, reptiles, small animals, and birds. I'm also a huge fan of gardening and plants. I work from home with a flexible schedule. I'm normal able to leave the house by 630/7 am and do a 'last out' (as we call it) at 930pm. And it's always nice to take a mid-day break for a walk. My animals have fairly loose rules but that's because we spent years training. How I care for your animals will be dependent on your requests. However, I would feel more comfortable walking your dog on a leash if you don't have a fenced in yard, and one at time. I'm always ready for snuggles and playtime!

“Maggie had a great time walking with Chrissy! She was so flexible and worked around our schedule. Maggie loved Chrissy from the get go and was very excited to see her! We loved getting photos as well and Chrissy was great at communicating throughout.”
About: I am a self taught dog enthusiast. Growing up I was always interested in animals and their behaviors and grew to further educate myself. I am currently working towards CPDT-KA certification as a professional dog trainer. I am PetTech CPR and First Aid certified since 10/10/2021. I am a proud owner of two Dobermans who have been a large part of my life for 11 years. I have worked in doggie daycare and boarding the last year and learned so much more about dog play, body language and breed characteristics. Dog behavior is something that has always interested me and I realize that negative behavior in dogs can be linked to too much energy and not enough exercise. We live in a busy world and time is sometimes against us. That is why I'd like to dedicate my time to helping out with dogs, as well as their owners, so that they all can feel at ease within their shared environments. I am currently available weekdays and evenings for walking and sitting. I will be willing to work with clients if they are needed on occasion. I abide by all leash laws and vaccination requirements. I keep my dogs safe and tethered while in transit and will be eventually adding a fenced area in my own yard for safe and monitored playtime. I will always respect and follow the requests of the owners needs for their dogs.
About: I have had dogs my whole life and have pet -walked for years. I love animals and I love all aspects of caring for them. Open availability - I am working as a freelancer and have a flexible schedule. Sixth sense with animals - very intuitive and healing with them.

Nicole R.
“Nicole loves animals. She helped me learn to give cats medicine at the cat shelter we both volunteered at, and showed great compassion and care towards these sick little ones. I honestly believe she will go above and beyond in caring for your dogs. Be it walking them, and/or caring for them in your home. Her compassion towards animals shows not only in her care, but also in how animals respond to her. She has a fantastic work ethic, never slacking, always putting the animals first. Her care and attention to detail saved two very sick kittens, who are now my daughter's wonderful companions.”

Karina K.
“Karina is a literal dog whisperer in my eyes. When I became a pet parent for the first time and was frantic trying to figure out how to make this work with my already busy lifestyle, she was who I turned to for help – and frequently! When it was time to welcome the little pup into his forever home, everything from crating to house-training to managing his separation anxiety, Karina was there for me every step of the way. Her patience and innate understanding not only put Asher at ease, but gave me the confidence I really needed in order to become a better caregiver myself. When I had to take a month long trip, she was the first person I turned to for a sitter, as I wanted him to be in a loving environment similar to what he would have experienced at home with me. She didn't disappoint, sending me pictures and video regularly to ensure I felt connected to him throughout. You won't regret working with Karina in any capacity!”
