About: I currently work full time but from the comfort of my own home. I always stress about finding a reliable sitter when I am away and thought why not help relieve that stress for other pet parents. I worked at a boarding facility as an operational manager for 2 years and have experience with all types of pups, including providing medications, special diets, etc. I also have two pups of my own and one has liver complications and the other one has entered old age, so fully understand the importance of care. They are my world. I value creating an environment that suites all fur babies. If yours needs a space of their own, I can make that happen in my home. I have tons of space and am happy to make sure your fur babies are comfortable. I have two dedicated adult bedrooms I use for boarding. Pets well have a warm bed and area that is all theirs. Of course they well have full access to the entire house but I all pups need their own space. I have a fenced yard with a tall privacy fence so potty breaks are secure and will be fully supervised. I want all pups comfortable. I can offer walks throughout the day for additional charge. My time is very flexible. I create my own schedule at my job so I can make anything happen with proper notice. I’m open to help whenever and wherever. I have two friendly pups who love other dogs. I have been trained in dog behavior and feel confident to know when a dog needs a break, uncomfortable, etc.. I’m quick to react and pay attention at all times.
“Carrie is extremely reliable and always saves the day with her quick response time, and understanding attitude. My wife and I appreciate her every single time she walks our dog. We highly recommend!!”

About: I have always been around animals with all different personality types. I can adapt well to any animal and feel comfortable taking care of any needs your pet may have. I’m currently in school, so I have a lot of free time throughout the day to take animals on walks, or just keep them company! I like to learn about pets from their owners and adjust my behaviors around them accordingly. My top priority is making an animal feel safe and comfortable around me.
About: Hi! My name is Gabby and pets have been a huge part of my life since I was little. I started dog and cat sitting in high school. From overnight visits, to quick potty breaks, or little drop in’s. I always tried to help wherever I could. Now I am trying to expand by helping all the pups and cats I can! I’m currently between jobs, so my availability is super open at the moment. Any changes in my availability will be communicated promptly to maintain full transparency and set up a change of plans. We have four pups of our own, all social and sweet. We have a big open yard for our pups to run around and explore. They are fed twice a day, water bowl is consistently refilled, and they are spoiled rotten with attention and loves.
About: I looked after and cared for my family’s two dogs as a teen and am 1 year into being a work from home dog dad for our English Golden, Archie. I can walk, feed, play and otherwise entertain your pets as I do my own. I work from home doing an 8am-4pm office job fully remote. I have many breaks throughout the day as the job is on call/as needed. I use this spare time to enrich our puppies life with exercise, playtime, and training. Weekends are usually free unless I am out of town. I have a fenced in back yard for easy outside time and a small neighborhood for walks. I have a 1 year old English Golden Retriever named Archie who loves to play and make new friends. I can kennel dogs at night if needed. Archie’s night time routine involves his crate which he prefers to go to at night for sleeping. On an average day we alternate between lounging by the hearth, playing frisbee/ball outside to get laps in, naps, and of course walks around lunch time and shortly after work. I can come to your house for check ins or walks and if needed can pick up/drop off your pet for boarding at my place.

“Haley came to my home for a meet and greet before her walk with Spirit. She was very sweet and answered all of my questions and made me feel at ease that my pup was in good hands. And he was. She communicated very well if anything occurred. I would definitely let her walk Spirit again.”

About: I’v taken care of dogs since I was old enough to be responsible for them, around age 12. I was in charge of feeding our family dogs, walking them, and exercising them through intentional playtime. We had 3 dogs then, and now we own two. I enjoy going on long walks and hikes, and often take my dogs on hikes. I also enjoy a casual run, and I am happy to take dogs on runs as well!

On the weekends, a bit more care as my schedule has more freedom. I currently do not have the ability to have additional dogs or cats in my home. I have 2 dogs and a cat at the moment.

About: I’ve worked in a vet's office and taken care of pretty much all animals over the years. I grew up showing horses competitively on a small farm with chickens, ducks, cattle, rabbits, pigs, dogs, and cats. Since then I’ve owned and cared for miniature donkeys, standard poodles, Weimeraners, Dalmatians, cats, and chickens. As long as it’s not a reptile, I’m game. I love those who need something extra that your normal pet sitter may not be comfortable with - and I also love all the others who don’t need anything special! I have an extremely flexible schedule and can work around pretty much whatever you need. One thing’s for sure - I will be honest with you. If I can’t do it, I will tell you. I will come to your home and care for your pets just as you do! I don’t need a pre-visit (unless you would like that) - you can show me by FaceTime or you can leave me a note. I am also more than happy to have a pre-visit! I like to communicate with you while you’re away so you know how things are going at home.
About: I have had dogs for my entire life. I currently have 1 dog daughter of my own, but my parents have 6 dogs back home. I have fostered pups and volunteered for years at animal shelters.

About: I am a licensed veterinary medical technician who has worked in the field for 7+ years. I am reliable, trustworthy, and always have the pet’s best interest at heart. I will treat yours like my own! I am a stay-at-home mom and available anytime most days (babies stay at grandparents while I sit). I am not available at the following times: Tuesdays from 9:30-11/Wednesdays from 11:30-3:00. I prefer to pet sit in the client’s home as this typically aids in minimizing the discomfort an animal feels without their owner. I provide up to 4 visits per day.
About: I have hands-on experience with a wide variety of animals at every life stage—from newborns to seniors. This allows me to confidently handle everything from playful, high-energy pets to those needing slower, more attentive care. I tailor my approach to each animal’s age, personality, and needs to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and truly cared for. My availability is flexible, and when I accept a booking, I am fully committed to being there exactly when your pet needs me. I’m very mindful of my schedule and only accept jobs I can reliably follow through on, so you can count on consistency, punctuality, and dependable care every time. I provide care exclusively in your pet’s home or through outings, so they can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. This helps reduce stress and keeps them feeling secure while you’re away. In your home, I follow your pet’s normal schedule as closely as possible—feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any medications or special instructions. I spend quality time with them so they feel cared for, not just “checked on.” For outings, I make sure they get safe, structured exercise and enrichment tailored to their energy level and personality. I’m very attentive to behavior, surroundings, and safety at all times. My goal is to provide consistent, loving care while keeping your pet happy, relaxed, and in their normal routine.
