“Julie was the absolute the best! She went beyond and so much for our Crumpet. Kept in good contact the whole time and was there for us on short notice and on the holiday. Julie is the best! Will definitely use her service again, and recommend her to everyone!”


“Michelle is a quick to respond and put me at ease letting me know my cats were in excellent hands. She took excellent care of my cats and gave great report cards!”


About: I love taking care of animals. Animal energy is something I love having in my life. I have had dogs and cats since I was born. Now I have my very own Border Collie named Iris who I love with all my heart. I was always interested in animal care bathing walking cooking my own dog special food. I recently made the decision to leave my place of employment after 25 years. So now I can commit to animal care as much or as little as I can. I don't have a routine yet but hopefully I will establish one soon. I have done numerous overnights with up to 4 dogs. I ask the owners for a printed copy of each dogs habits, routine and exercise preferences. Also if the dog has any leash or food aggression.

About: I have a passion for animals and have accumulated several years of personal pet care experience with dogs, cats, small animals, and reptiles! In addition to my personal experience, I have over 3 years of professional dog care experience working with dogs of all breeds, including puppies, seniors, and those with special needs. I understand the unique care requirements each pet has, and I strive to provide them with the attention, love, and comfort they deserve. I’m committed to ensuring your pets are happy, healthy, and well cared for! I currently work part time, which gives me plenty of time to spend playing with your pups. Feel free to reach out for any inquiries! When caring for pets in my client's home, I prioritize their safety, comfort, and well-being! I stick to routines that provide a sense of consistency and security for the pets, whether it’s feeding, walks, or playtime. Building trust is also essential, so I take the time to get to know each pet!

About: I've owned and cared for dogs since I was three years old. I've always loved them! I've worked at a dog boarding kennel for over a year now and I love it! Before that, I worked at a farm with lots of different animals and I've watched/walked dogs on the side for a long time now. I also have experience with cats as well! I'd love to meet your four-legged friends and family! I work part-time at a dog boarding kennel and my hours are different sometimes. I'm either working 7am - 12:30pm OR 3pm - 7pm. I usually work the afternoon shift (3 - 7). Since I have worked with animals a lot, especially dogs, I definitely consider myself pretty educated. Like I said, I do not offer boarding in my own home but I am more than happy to come to yours and offer my services! If you have any questions about anything, always feel free to contact me! :)

About: My name is Emily, I am 24 years old. I have owned dogs my whole life. My family has owned dogs as small as a pug and as large as a Rottweiler. I also have horse care experience as well as birds. My mom worked as a pet sitter on top of her full time job for years and loved it. I am very hard working and willing to be as flexible as I possibly can to accommodate the needs of my clients and their pets. I do not work therefore I am available to care for and love on others pets all day on top of taking care of my own. I do not have any other job, I spend all my time caring for my service dog. Therefore my schedule is super open to care for your pets! Depending on the instructions I am given I will feed your pet, take them for potty breaks, play with them and love on them. I try to take time to get to know the pets I’m working with.

“I wish I could give Alexis more than 5 stars!!! I contacted Alexis last minute about day care for my two German shepherds, plans quickly changed because of my one of dogs health and she didn’t hesitate to offer to come to my house instead. My dog had an accident in my house and she thoroughly cleaned up after him. Alexis goes above and beyond for her clients and their pets from quick response times to genuinely caring for your pet. Keep up the great work and I look forward to booking again with you soon!”


About: I currently own a cat, 2 dogs, and a reptile. Grew up with 3 dogs from 15 to 120lbs along with a cat, hamsters, 6 chinchillas, and at one point a rabbit. I have taken care of friends and families dogs and cats of all ages and sizes along with anything from fish to reptiles. Many of the things needed to be done was general check ins to walk, feed, play, overall mess cleanup of toys or accidents, cage cleaning, and night stays if needed. I have also volunteered at many shelters which consisted of dog walking, kennel cleanings, litter box scooping, and overall playtime. I'm used to bathing when needed and have a great amount of knowledge in many animals as I was also a manager for awhile at a pet store. I'm currently a stay at home mom who only works 2 set nights a week for 4.5 hours. I generally am up between 6am and 7am and don't go to bed until around 11pm. If I'm not home playing with my kids or pets I'm just tidying around the house or cleaning. I am almost always local to the area but if for any reason I'm not I always know ahead of time. After volunteering at shelters and having many animals of my own I have learned that patience is key. When meeting a new animal who may be anxious or scared, sitting quietly with them for awhile and allowing them to come to you on their own terms works the best. Forcing an animal to adjust to a human is not in anyway okay and only makes things harder for them to trust a human. Making sure an animal has a properly secured and adjusted harness or collar before going out is also a big thing I have always checked incase the animal is an escape artist. Before allowing a dog to go outside making sure gates are secured as you never know when one may be unlatched for any reason. When going on walks I am always aware of my surrounding for cars, people, other animals to keep all safe. If an animal is hypersensitive or reactive knowing ahead of time allows me to adjust accordingly.


“My wife and I were nervous to leave our dogs with new people as they gave always stayed with family . Jake and Mischa made an effort from the first meeting to reassure us that our pets were in good hands and focused on getting to know them. They stayed in communication with us through out the duration of the service. They provided great photos that captured our dogs personalities well. We also figured being a husband and wife pairing that only one at a time would come, however during every visit they were both present which meant our dogs were able to receive more love during each visit. The final visit my wife and I were home and you could see our dogs were still very happy to see them. We will not hesitate to utilize them again the next time we go away.”
