About: When I was a young girl growing up as a sibling of 5, we were all always taking in strays & that’s where my experience comes from. From caring for the strays to owning pets of my own, I have taken care of animals for as long as I can remember! Every fur baby becomes family to me. I’m experienced with giving oral medication and can accommodate most medicinal needs! I’m home full time with my two children so I’ll have plenty of time to love and play with your babies! We wake up early in the morning to start our day so they’ll never be without attention! Always full of love ❤️ I have a fenced in yard fully! We also allow them on furniture so they’ll be plenty comfortable. If your loved one is on a routine I’ll be sure to stick to it.

“Kendra was fabulous! She’d give me updates and pictures throughout the weekend. This was my first time leaving Toby with someone outside of family and I couldn’t have picked a better person to trust him with! I’ll definitely be using her again!!”


“Arelits was great! She sent lots of picture and videos and was diligent in understanding and following instructions about caring for our dog. Her dog Luna was really friendly and kind and made for a good companion for our dog.”

About: Hello! My experience comes from being the proud owner of an energetic and loving water dog named Capri. We loved going on long walks and hikes. We also spent a lot of time at the dog park, which gave me experience interacting with most all breeds and temperaments. I now have one very large and cuddly, quite lazy, dog named Rex! Owning a dog has given me opportunities I would have otherwise not had. The people we've over the years have been amazing. I understand that our dogs and cats are like family, and they will be treated as such here. Take a look around my profile and message me with any questions. I look forward to hearing from you and meeting your fur babies! Currently my schedule is wide open for pet sitting and the majority of my time is spent at home. Bookings are accepted 7 days a week. I have a large fenced in backyard. Pet gates are utilized inside. I look forward to hearing from you with any questions or concerns and would love to set up and meet and greet!

Tori Jenise A.
“Hello. I am a very busy cat lover and owner. Unfortunately, my job requires that I am away from my fur baby longer than I would like to be. Sunshine has stepped in during my absence and proven to be a Godsend. She is very caring and very responsible. She is a natural with pets. I recommend her to anyone needing care for their babies. My Krenger bonded with her right away, which is not normal for him. He loves when she comes over and looks for her when she is gone. I can feel confident and comfortable knowing that he is in her care.”
