“Aly was a huge help while my wife and I went out of town for two weeks and our 90lb energetic Irish Setter needed to expend some energy while my mother who would have had a difficult time walking him was dog sitting. Thank you for the walks every day! Would easily recommend Aly’s services and will book again!”

About: i’ve always loved dogs, I grew up with having many dogs around me at all times. I wasn’t taking my time and getting to know the dog. I’ve always loved dogs and caring for them! I am currently working from home part time and have lots of time on my hands, I am also free on the weekends to have a fun time with your pup! I have one dog of my own and live on a dairy so there’s plenty of space for your dog to run and play! I also have a dog of my own that will keep yours company, he’s very friendly and energetic!
About: I was raised in a pet loving family. Cats, Dogs, Horses you name it I’ve fallen in love with it. I used to baby sit and walk in high school ‘only for family fur baby’s’ I work a consistent 6am–3pm schedule, allowing availability for early morning, lunch-time, and evening pet care throughout the week. I’m also available on weekends and I have base access for military family’s. I primarily care for pets in their own home, following their normal routines for feeding, walks, play, and medications. I focus on keeping pets comfortable, safe, and well cared for while maintaining clear communication with owners.
About: I“Il make it a priority to give every dog the care they need to stay happy and healthy. From following their feeding and exercise routines to giving plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles, I ensure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away.

About: I have alway grown up with dogs always being part of our family. I’ve always had a lot of love for animals and have always enjoyed being around them. I always try my best to make sure that every dog I come across gets enough love. I am currently a full-time college student meaning that there will be days where I cannot pet sit. I am always available on weekends and Mondays since I do not have classes on those days. I have a dog of my own, a chihuahua terrier mix, that I take care of everyday. I walk her every morning before leaving to class, my mom will walk her in the afternoon when I do have classes otherwise I would walk her in the afternoon, and I also walk her at night around 7-8pm. I make sure she always has food and water, always gets attention, and make sure she is not smelly.
About: I may be young with dyed hair and piercings, but I love furry, feathery, and scaly friends to the moon and back! I have an open schedule, and I try to be as accommodating as possible. I grew up with what I feel is almost every type of animal imaginable, so nothing gets past me. I have also grown up around many litters of puppies, so I have experience bottle-feeding and attending to needs. I also have dealt with animals diagnosed with dementia and other health problems they just need a little extra love and time is all! I also have handled disabled pets including missing appendages and paralysis. I love being able to give pets the attention and time they need and deserve while the owners can be worry-free. Pet care is my priority! I currently don’t have a job since I just moved to this area a couple of months ago so I am completely available to give furry friends the attention they need. Since I am not in a position to take pets into my own home I try to be my absolute best wherever I am! I am a big advocate for respect not only to others but their property as well so when working with clients and their homes I hold myself to a standard of leaving everything as it was unless specifically told otherwise. Doing this can also help me build trust with the pet simply as an acknowledgment that I understand that it is their territory and I am in their space.

I currently work at a vet clinic and am in school to become a vet tech. Pet care always comes first. When I’m not working, pets are my number one priority. We’ll play until tired, walk when the weather permits, and work on any training you see fit to be done. In my own home my pets get all the play time they need, all the attention they could ask for, and all the outdoor time they could desire. I monitor all play, indoor and out, and make sure they aren’t going too hard or getting too over heated. Your pets would get the same treatment. And god forbid anything we’re to happen to them I know what to do in an emergency situation.

About: Trained hunting dogs. Cared for multiple puppies. Have experience caring for both high-energy and older dogs. I love being around dogs and think that they are the best pets in the world. I've grown up around many types of dogs from little terriers to big great-danes so I feel like I am a capable sitter for any pup. Pet care fits smoothly into my routine because I am in the off-season right now for my sport, giving me the freedom to schedule my workouts and training around my pet-sitting duties. I will care for the pet however the client prefers! I will always try to keep the dog entertained and cared for unless told otherwise.
About: We are a couple that both grew up in a home full of animals from small dogs all the way to large dogs, cats, and even sheep. We have helped friends and family care for their pets for many years. Hayden is a student athlete and Lauryn is a part time swim instructor if you want a strong, respectable, couple to care for your pets then we are a great fit.

Hayden is in summer training for football and has afternoons available and Lauryn has days off from work through the week. I cater to every pets needs and love playing, walking, or even relaxing with your pets all day. Your pets will always be in great hands with me as I will never disappoint you or your pet(s).
About: I've grown up with dogs my entire life. My family had 3 Golden Retrievers, 1 Rottweiler, 1 Newfoundland, a Maltese, and a Miniature Schnauzer. As an adult I've had a Standard Schnauzer named Trigger who recently passed. He was my very first dog of my own and was my adventure buddy in so many ways. June is my Boxer mix and she's an 8 year old lazy pup. We have a Cattle dog/ Aussie/ collie mix named Hanzo who is a year old and CRAZY. I've worked with and owned big dogs, small dogs, and all dogs inbetween. I know there is a need in the area for a solid dog watcher since I was in the Navy for 14 years and had a hard time finding someone to take care of my pup on dets and deployment. I am currently retired from the Navy and in limbo for school and work. In the mean time- I have ALL DAY to take care of your friend. I would just like to take weekends off to enjoy the fishing season I have two dogs of my own and a small child in the home, because of that, I don't think having other dogs in my house until they and I are more comfortable. I would love to take them for walks, feed and water, or give them a quick potty break.
About: I’ve taken care of a lot of animals my whole life. As well as worked with an animal chiropractor for 6-7 years. My family works with them so I’ve spent time with all shapes and sizes. Dogs that tend to be shy always warm up to me and I’m always willing to play with them. Some love from a pup can make your day but it can also make theirs. Im in the military and work from 4 pm to 1 am Sunday- Thursday as well as having to be called in at a moments notice and sometimes on the weekend. I live in the barracks so I don’t have animals but love taking care of them and spending time. Back home I would take my dog for runs and walks daily if not every other day. I also played with him a lot.
About: I’ve been an animal lover since birth and began actively helping care for cats and dogs at age 6. I’ve cared for pregnant stray cats and fostered their newborn kittens to young adulthood and beyond. I’ve both raised and helped train dogs from birth as well as caring for elderly pups. I’ve seen animals at all stages of life and cared for them at all stages of life, both cat and dog. I am active and love to walk so if that’s your dog we’ll get along great! I also love relaxing while drinking tea, reading, or gardening, so if your fur baby is a bit on the calmer side or elderly they’ll get plenty of rest, cuddles, and love. I work part-time but I walk/bike daily and have the majority of my days free to walk, play, and love on sweet fur baby’s. I miss having animals in my home and would love to help you with yours! I have a good size fenced-in backyard and am not too worried about little (or big) paws on my furniture. There's room to play either inside or out, a quiet neighborhood to walk in, and a park a few minutes away. If your companion is crate trained I do have my own crates if that is something you need/are interested in. I have had to care for sick as well as elderly babies, both dogs, and cats, so if your pet needs certain accommodations or extra attention I have some experience in working with those that need a little extra help.
About: -I have owned all size of dogs my whole life from a yorkie, golden retriever, husky, to now a german shepard as well! - have also owned and been around cats throughout my life and can happily feed, play with, and give love to them -I am comfortable with all sizes and temperaments. -I am a non- smoker - I have my own transportation if needed - I have cared for my own dogs as well as neighbors and family friends since I can remember and consider myself very adequate for the job!

I am able to take them for walks, throw the ball outside, take them to a park or anywhere else they love and are comfortable at, feed, and of course give treats!
