About: I’ve been surrounded by furry friends since I was young. I’m trusted by friends and family to take care of their pets while they travel or figure out life changes. I’m diligent about brushing, cleaning and snuggling-whatever your pup needs, I’m on it! I currently work full time from 9AM-5PM on a four day schedule. In the early morning’s and evenings I am available for walks, play time, training reinforcement, as well as clean up and any additional help needed while you’re away. During the weekends- I’m available all day Saturday-Mondays for walks and plenty of enrichment time! I have a highly energetic dog to keep your pet company! If your pet does not do well with other animals, I am happy to accommodate as needed. With plenty of parks and hikes in the area, I can assure you we’ll take plenty of walks. I will crate your pet if needed for their own safety.

About: Hi! My name is Monica Martinez, and I’ve been caring for dogs for over 8 years. I have hands-on experience with a variety of breeds, including Golden Retrievers, Huskies, and Alabais, as well as mixed breeds. I currently share my home with two loving pups—Luna, a playful and energetic Husky, and Sol, a gentle Golden Retriever with a heart of gold. I understand the unique needs of different breeds and personalities, from the high-energy requirements of working dogs to the calm reassurance older dogs might need. Whether it's playtime, long walks, administering medications, or simply offering love and companionship, I provide reliable and compassionate care tailored to each dog. Your fur baby will be in a safe, loving, and attentive environment—just like family! I work from Monday to Friday, Saturdays and Sundays off. I walk them every afternoon and spent time with them in the afternoon they are part of my daily routine. I will always ask for a cage because I have another 2 dogs at home. I play with them and also I have a big house for me and the dogs.

About: I have taken care of a variety of animals, since I was a very young child, it ranges from cats dogs hamsters to even reptiles. All growing up I have always had dogs large and small and moving out of my parents house. I also got a cat of my own and have raised two animals by myself living out of my parents home for over 11 years now. I currently have an open schedule, I'm looking to go to school here in the spring time; but as of now I have a open schedule. As approaching your home, I will assess the environment and the fur baby when I get there and calmly assure the animal that I'm there to help and to love for them as their humans do.

Claire and her family are the BEST! We have chosen them time and time again. We have never been disappointed. All the little scary things that go wrong while you are gone, that can affect your pets, she has helped or handled. Our water stopped working randomly while we were on our last trip and she not only let us know immediately, but made sure our girls had plenty of bottled water for their water bowls. Seriously love them!

About: Working in veterinary medicine, I can understand basic animal needs and care. I have been taking care of animals for over 10 years. I will treat your babies like they are my own I work two jobs, both in opposite directions, so to be able to housesit. And given a good amount of time to request days off to give your baby my full attention I prefer housesitting over boarding at my personal home, it’s easier for me, and I feel like the pets would prefer their own home over anyone elses

About: With 15+ years of professional animal care experience, I’ve done it all — from leading 20+ dog playgroups to training puppies and snuggling senior pups and caring for cats with special needs. 🐾 I absolutely love what I do and treat every pet like my own! Whether it’s a fun walk, a good game of fetch, or cozy cuddle time, I make sure your furry friend feels happy, loved, and totally at ease while you’re away. Reliable, upbeat, and animal-obsessed — I can’t wait to meet your pet! ❤️ I currently work from home, which makes it easy to fit pet care into my day. I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time for walks, feedings, and play breaks. Since I’m home most of the day, I can give each pet consistent attention and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. IN MY HOME— The second and third photos in my gallery are of my property. I have a large, fully gated backyard that’s just under an acre, giving dogs plenty of space to safely run, play, and explore. It’s a great environment for pups to get their energy out while still being secure at all times. For dogs who prefer a calmer environment or need a bit more structure, I can easily accommodate their needs and adjust care based on what makes them most comfortable. My goal is always to make sure every dog feels safe, relaxed, and well cared for while enjoying lots of outdoor time. IN YOUR HOME— When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always make sure to respect both the pet’s routine and the owner’s space. I carefully follow all instructions for feeding, walking, medications, and any house rules to keep things consistent and stress-free for the pet. I take time to make sure each animal feels comfortable and loved — whether that means extra playtime, calm companionship, or simply keeping them company while they rest. I also keep the home tidy, make sure everything is secure, and send regular updates and photos so owners can relax knowing their pets are are happy and cared for.

Since I’m home most of the day, I can give each pet consistent attention and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. IN MY HOME- First 3 photos in my gallery are of my property. I live on 5 private acres surrounded by woods, which gives dogs plenty of space to safely run, play, and explore. There’s also a clean swimmable pond on the property for dogs who enjoy swimming and cooling off on warm days. For pups who can’t run freely or need a bit more structure, I have two indoor/outdoor kennels available. Each kennel has a cozy heated indoor area with comfortable bedding and an outdoor section that’s fully covered for shade and weather protection. The use of kennels is completely optional and only done with the owner’s consent — most dogs love having both options for play and relaxation. My goal is always to make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while enjoying plenty of fresh air and outdoor time.

About: I have been around dogs for as long as I can remember. There has almost never been a period of time when we did not have a pet. I was responsible for my pets since before middle school. As someone who gets worried easily for my loved ones and little companions, I will make sure to offer as many updates as needed and reassurance for any owners who may worry about their pets. I have a fully open schedule as of right now and will fully dedicate myself to pet care. I will do my best to work around pet owners’ schedules. They will be fed and taken care of as instructed by the owners. I will work with any requirements they have and make sure to communicate well.

About: I’ve owned pets my whole life! I currently have one cat who is like my child. I grew up caring for gerbils, dogs, Guinea pigs, rabbits and fish as well. I love animals and truly enjoy their company - I’d love to have the chance to meet and care for yours! I’m an attentive and affectionate owner and caregiver to all kinds of pets, both big and small. I have experience administering medication as well, my childhood cat was diabetic so I have lots of experience with injectable medication. I’m very flexible schedule wise! I currently work part time and set my own hours, but I mostly work evenings. I spend as much time with my pets as possible. I prefer afternoon bookings, but I can do nights as well. I currently can’t host in my own house due to animal restrictions! I’m available for drop-ins and house sitting. I’m a very clean person and always respect other peoples spaces. I’m very competent and have no issue following whatever instructions you give me regarding how you need your pet cared for.

About: Our family has had pets for most of our lives. We are avid animal lovers and will work together to care for you fur babies!!! I am currently working from home 3 days per week which gives me the time and availability required. My daughter is 17 and will be helping me so that someone is always here to provide the love and care needed. Between my daughter and myself we are able to go to the clients home as often as they need us to. I am also willing to take in animals at my own home where I currently have a 1 acre fenced in yard and all the space needed for any size fur baby.

Yazmelin took wonderful care of my baby. She was very responsive and kept me informed on how he was doing. I would definitely book her again. Knowing he was being cared for allowed me to enjoy my vacation.

About: Since childhood, I’ve always cared for dogs. After losing my beloved dog, I’ve longed to feel that special connection again, and I’m ready to give your pup the love they deserve. I work part-time, so I can take your dog out during the morning shift or lunch breaks, ensuring they get the attention they deserve while you’re at work. My home is pet-friendly with a secure, fenced yard where dogs can roam freely and safely. I provide the same care and attention when walking dogs in their own home, ensuring they feel comfortable and loved in a familiar environment.

It’s always hard leaving the fur children at home, but knowing that they were being checked on, made us feel less guilty about going on Vacation. Karina always let us know that they were ok. She kept them fed and hydrated and kept the litter cleaned. Thanks Karina, we will call you again!
