About: My whole life I have been surrounded by cats and dogs, whether it be my own or those belonging to family and friends. I've handled all kinds of breeds, sizes, and ages, ranging from senior cats to St Bernards. I work from home and have flexibility in my afternoons and evenings to take your furry friend(s) for walks during the week. My weekend availability can vary, but generally open. Currently, my girlfriend and I have two 1 year old cats that we adore. Previously, while living with my parents, I would take our family dog for walks daily and ensure he got adequate play time. I hope to continue this with a dog of my own in the near future.
“She was so kind and reliable! Our pup loved the walk and she really ran out all of his energy. I’m very thankful!!”
About: Your pet deserves the best - we’re here to deliver that! I have grown up with dogs my whole life. We’ve had dogs of all sizes and personalities and have 2 pups right now! Every pet is so different and I’m experienced in shifting my approach based on the pets needs. My husband and I have very flexible schedules to help meet the needs of your pet! My work schedule is flexible and my husband works from home and can easily be available. We are happy to help multiple times per day if needed as well! We treat every pet as if they were our own. We have 2 pups that are spoiled with so much love and we would love the opportunity to show your pet that love as well. We are happy to stay active with the high energy dogs or provide some comfort and cuddles with the anxious or low energy ones. We ensure your pup will be loved, safe & happy even while you’re away!
“Brittany has been walking our puppy twice a week for several weeks now and it’s been going swimmingly. Communication has been really good and it’s been such a weight off our shoulders to know that Brittany will be giving our dog a fun break in the middle of the day when we can’t be home. She sends photos and little updates to let us know how their walks went and those are really fun to see. Highly recommend Brittany!”
“Ernst is super friendly, responsive and knowledgeable. We have 70 lbs adolescent pup who has a lot of energy to give. Ernst is great at keeping our pup in line. I already notice an improvement in our pet’s loose leash walking!”
“Shannon is awesome! Norman loves his walks with her. She’s super sweet with him, great at handling his less-than-ideal leash etiquette, and super communicative.”

Willing and able to follow your individualized needs for your fur baby. I am very present (especially during summer months when I am not teaching) so can make sure your pup is getting all the love and attention they deserve.
“Morgan was excellent. No complaints.”

I have a fenced-in yard and a friendly Bernedoodle to keep your pup(s) company! They’ll enjoy plenty of playtime, companionship, and long walks to keep them happy and active while they’re with us.
“Thank you Liz! Appreciate your help!”
About: I am very active with my dog and we often go hiking, visit dog parks, or just take sniffy walks around the neighborhood. We have taken a lot of positive reinforcement training classes together which range from manners, canifitness challenges, canicross, cooperative care (husbandry), to simply learning how to play with each other. I am currently enrolled in the Karen Pryor Academy dog trainer comprehensive class. I have experience with reactive dogs. I help my dog with big feelings everyday and use multiple positive reinforcement tools and pattern games so we can still enjoy our walks. I have experience administering many different types of medication and taking care of animals with chronic health conditions. I also have experience with special/limited diets. I have experience caring for multiple special needs animals at the same time, although currently I only have one dog. I have had dogs my entire life and other types of animals for most of that time as well. As a kid I helped my parents take care of our family dog Denny and then got my first dog at 12. I also had hamsters, a gerbil, and rabbits. As an adult I have kept cats as well as dogs. I work part time and mostly from home. My days tend to be very flexible so please check the calendar for availability or simply reach out! I will listen to your care instructions and ask any questions that may come up, both while we are setting up a job and throughout the time that I am with your animals. I will try and keep to your dog or cats routine as much as possible. I also always send pictures and updates so you will know how your pet is doing.
“Sara did a great job with our dogs! She was prompt with her messages, friendly, and walked the dogs as requested. When there was an issue she was quick to inform us of the situation. The dogs liked her and we would definitely use her services again.”
“Jimmy did amazing with Tucker! He took the time to come and meet the day before the walk to talk about Tuckers habits and dos/don'ts which made me feel really comfortable with letting someone else walk our dog. Tucker was extremely happy after the walk too!”
About: I grew up with Golden Retrievers (more like Golden Takers) so I am used to high-energy dogs! I am now a dog mom to my beloved Keisha who is a Yorkshire Terrier and Gus who is a Shih-poo so I also have a lot of experience with small dogs. I have house sat for multiple people with dogs ranging from Mastiffs, Chihuahuas, Aussie Shepherds, and Dotsons. Some of them have been senior/special needs dogs as well! I am a recent college graduate and am currently trying to navigate life without having school to occupy my time. Because of that, I have ample time on my hands to meet new furry friends! I am free Friday through Sunday and currently private nanny and tutor Monday to Thursday. I currently live in an apartment and so I am not able to board any furry friends. That being said, I would love to come to your home and keep you fur baby(s) happy and healthy while you are away. I prefer it this way so that way your pets only have one change (the new human taking care of them) and not have to deal with environmental changes.
About: I love dogs and puppies and when I bought my home I was looking for a huge yard that was fenced in for dogs to play in. It also came with a dog door and ramp! Very dog friendly! My foster dogs and sitting made me become more aware of dog and puppy needs from playing, walking and cuddling! I also love to be outside so if your pup likes to explore I would love to take them on a hike or downtown! I currently have a flexible schedule and can work from home if preferred. Or I can play with them feed them, crate them and be home early to play more- Your pup would be my priority! I have a fenced in yard and puppy door so if your dog is independent and wants more time outside they can safely do so. If not I can play in the yard or walk them in the neighborhood, park or downtown.

“Ethan has 2 cats of his own that he loves like actual children. He makes sure they always have enough food and water.

“I have three dogs, including a high-maintenance Pomeranian with a sensitive stomach, and Tina is one of the few people I fully trust to care for them while I’m away. She is incredibly attentive to details and makes sure my sensitive dog only gets the right food and treats. Tina genuinely loves dogs, and my pups are always excited to see her, which reassures me that they feel safe and happy in her care. Her solid understanding of positive reinforcement training means she provides kind, confident leadership to my little pack. On top of that, Tina is reliable, responsive, and an absolute pleasure to work with. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”

“Anna is an amazing dog sitter. She is very loving and she bonded quickly with my animals. She can handle all sizes and personalities. I have a 125 lb mastiff who thinks she's a lap dog and an 8 lb chihuahua who thinks she's the one who should be in the lap all the time. I also have a cat who likes to sleep by my head. So these 3 can be challenging! When she dog sat she sent pictures every few days and kept me up to date. She is 100% trustworthy and 100% reliable. I will continue to hire her to pet sit for me and have 100% confidence in her. She's amazing.”
