“Maggie was absolutely amazing! If I could give her 6 stars I would. From the moment we met her we could tell how caring she was and how much she loves animals. She was so good with our little chihuahua and was amazing about sending updates with photos and videos. We are so thankful we found Maggie and hope to work with her again in the future. If you are looking for someone to take good care of your fur baby, look no further! Maggie is hands down the best!❤️”

About: I have 20 years experience caring for all types of animals (reptiles, small animals, cats, dogs with a wide range of medical and behavioral challenges. I work from home so my schedule is fairly flexible. If you are looking for dog boarding at my home the dog/dogs must be minimal barkers otherwise I will welcome their company as my co-worker for the day- I recently lost my senior pet so this home is too empty! At my home I have a fenced in yard with no other pets so your pet will have quality attention (one pet family boarding at my home at a time.) Experienced in crate training/crated dogs. Will only provide treats that are provided by owner to be conscious of potential allergies or other dietary restrictions. Can help assist in potty training or teaching any other tricks while you are away. I don’t allow dogs to pull on walks and will actively work with your pet to reduce this behavior. Your pet will be treated like a member of the family with patience, love and compassion backed my many years experience and training on animal behavior.

“Abriana is fantastic, very patient. Abriana took as much time as my guy Otis needed to get comfortable. It worked :). Otis, who is extremely skittish, warmed up and even sat on Abriana’s lap!!!! Thank you, Abriana!!!”

“Parker took excellent care of Baloo during drop-in visits. He did a great job of following my list of pretty extensive instructions, and spent extra time keeping my anxious boy company. I received daily photos of a happy dog! I will not hesitate to book with Parker and Alysa again.”

About: Note: I will travel outside of my service radius for overnight/house sitting if my schedule allows. I provide personalized love and attention for your dog & cat to keep them happy and feeling loved. I have always been an animal lover and have been rescuing animals for almost as long as I can remember. I will give your four legged family member the same love and attention I give my own babies. I am proud to be owned by my rescue babies and they and those that have come before in my life have taught me many useful lessons and given me a great deal of experience. Special needs are not a problem at all for me, just tell me what your fur baby needs. I have worked with every size of dog from a tiny Yorkie to a large Irish wolfhound, no matter the size or the need they all get extra scritches from me. I also currently foster and volunteer with pacc so am constantly adding more knowledge to my bank of information. I believe animals can teach us everyday if we let them. Please know my house sitting rates shown here are for care where the dog can be left alone for 4 hours or more. I do offer services for dogs who can’t be left alone that long but the rate will be different. Pet care is my weekly routine I am focused on provided top notch care for all of my clients. I do rover full time and always work my schedule around the wonderful pets in my care.

“Ben is awesome. Totally reliable and did great with our 3 dogs, especially the Belgian Malinois, who is not the easiest dog to walk. He does a great job, highly recommend.”

“Ilene was so sweet with my senior dog! She was really easy to schedule with and reliable. I highly recommend her, she really cares about the animals she works with.”

About: I have over a decade of experience working with animals, first in the veterinary field and then as a professional dog trainer. I use positive reinforcement methods to help bring out the best in dogs, making training fun and providing structured physical and mental outlets for them. I have experience with all types of dogs, from high energy puppies to mobility challenged seniors. I have also worked with dogs of different temperaments and with specific behavioral needs. I look forward to hearing about your dog and how I can help you bring out the best version of them. I am currently going back to school so I have a flexible schedule, and it changes every few months. Please reach out to ask me about me specific availability and I will do my best to accommodate you. I am happy to provide care for your pets in their home, where they will be most comfortable. I can check in on them, provided them with food, water, potty breaks, and I am happy to hang out and keep them company if that is something you would like. I can also send text and photo updates for you can be confident your pet is being well cared for.

About: I have fostered 8 dogs (so far!) and helped them find homes. Caring for dogs of different ages, temperaments and needs has taught me so much. I have experience with both dogs and cats (and birds and fish!). I work as a substitute teacher, giving me flexibility to take pet-sitting jobs on short notice. I am also available for overnight pet-sitting and longer house-sitting bookings. As a dog foster, I have learned to be exceptionally careful with new dogs. Respecting their space, while being friendly and encouraging. Taking extra precautions when leaving the house or letting them out into the yard. I understand that change and new people can be stressful to a dog and am careful to avoid additional stressors. I feel immense responsibility for the pets in my care, as well as other pets and people we encounter on walks. I also want the dogs to have fun and relax when we are at home. I really enjoy getting to know new dogs and hope they see me as a new friend ☺️

“I needed a last minute dog walker and Hera was there to save the day! Very professional and reliable. I will definitely book with her again. :)”

I am a full-time online student, so I am just about always home and engaged with my own pets. Fitting pet care into my schedule is no problem whatsoever! In your home and in my own, I aim to ensure your pets are comfortable. I do my best to take note of your pet's body language, and will approach in a manner that fits the comfort level of said pet. My first order of business is always to greet the pet(s) briefly. Then, I do the basic tasks (food, water, litter, etc.), and after that I like to sit close by and engage with the pet if they'll allow. I ensure safety by double checking windows, locks, doors, and taking head counts of the pets. I like being able to provide owners with photos of their fur babies to reassure the pets are well-cared for.
