“Sydney was great with Bailey! Super sweet and knowledgeable. Would definitely use Sydney again.”
About: I have taken care of pets all my life. I love dogs, cats, birds, fish, lizards- you name it. I hold a special place in my heart for senior dogs. I have fostered several senior Golden Retrievers over the years and I can’t resist those frosted faces. Making your pet feel safe and happy while you are away is my main goal. I keep my calendar updated and I can make myself available for house/pet sitting at your home overnight, I offer 12 hours for a flat fee. I believe when a pet parent is away it’s important to keep pets on their normal routine, or as close to that as possible so they feel safe and happy with me. I keep pets on leash anytime they are outside, unless they are in their own yard- then I keep a watchful eye out. I am a helicopter pet parent, I admit it.
“Ashley is an absolute dream come true. There are no words to describe the love this woman has for our fur babies. She treats them like her own children. And for that I am grateful! 💕💕💕”

About: I started a dog walking business at the age of 10. I grew up around a lot of dogs. I’ve cared for many sick and senior dogs. I’ve watch puppies in other states too. I’ve even watched a pet possum for two weeks. I’ll be the one at the party who only plays with the dog. Animals are man’s best friend and they’re family. I’ve had my dog for 13yrs and he’s my whole life. I’m free for months at a time. I work in the film and tv industry but when it’s slow I have endless amounts of free time. I live in a gated community on the 1st floor. And have two friendly small dogs. One loves to play and the other loves to sleep.
About: I have been a dog owner since 2013. I have experience in caring for dogs of all shapes, sizes, and temperaments. I currently own 3 pets, Calypso, Khaleesi, and Luna are the light of my life. So, I completely understand how important your pets are to you and I will treat your pets with as much love as I give my own. I work from home so I have flexible scheduling during the day. I am currently working from home so I have plenty of flexibility to care for your pets needs! Plenty of walks, play time, and love! Safety is my priority! I have a dogs myself that are extremely lovable with other dogs and humans! We have a backyard for plenty of play time and a quiet safe neighborhood for walks.
“Viktoriia was amazing! After one time watching my dog, I only hope that she will keep pet sitting for years to come! She was perfect on everything. My dog loved her, I can tell she loves animals, she was able to follow all instructions perfectly, and even accommodate some requested changes in our schedule. I was so happy to have the peace of mind while traveling. Will be using her again for sure…I hope she doesn’t get tooo busy :)”
About: Hey there! My name is Rachel and I live with my husband, our 3 year old and 4 month old daughters, 2 fur babies and our 1 kitty cat. I have many years of experience with dogs because my family growing up has always had a house (and yard) full of them. I have also offered dog-sitting to neighbors and friends/family in the past. The more wagging tails the merrier! I would be happy to offer any home visits to check on your fur babies to walk, feed or even play with them. I will also offer in-home boarding to smaller breed or medium sized dogs as long as they are not aggressive since I do have other animals and children. We have a fenced backyard and live on more than 70 acres of land where I can offer leashed walks and potty breaks. Please let me know if you have any questions and I look forward to meeting your little loves! <3 I am currently a full-time stay at home mom so I have plenty of time to spend with your doggies. I am not available major holidays but I am available on weekdays and weekends. I allow the dogs that I may be boarding inside the house, and would stick to a strict potty/feeding schedule depending on each owner and pet. I believe every dog has their own personality, much like people, and need to be tended to differently.
