Hope Madison is available next time we have to go away.”

About: I have owner various pets throughout my life and there has never been a time that I have not had an animal in my house. We relocated to the USA and this is the first time that we have not had a fur baby, so taking care of someone else's pets fulfills my need for animal loves and cuddles. I am currently not working, so I am available to take care of your pets while my children are at school. If you are comfortable with your pets being around children, my available hours can be extended and your pet is welcome in my home. Unfortunately no aggressive breeds are permitted at my home. I am happy to come to your home to spend time with your pets, giving cuddles and taking them for walks in safe neighborhoods. I do not have pets at my home so I am able to take care of your small pets at my home. I have a fenced garden area for potty breaks.

About: I've cared for dogs, big and small, since I was a teenager. Chihuahuas, Yorkies, Hounds, Labs, German Shepherds...and more! Each dog has his/her own style of interacting with its people. I am patient with the outgoing pups and tender with timid pups. I am graduating with my master's and awaiting licensure. My off season from my profession means I can dedicate my time to caring for dogs, pups, cats, and kittens! My pets are a part of the family! I have a small, private fenced in area for monitored outings. For safety, I crate my dog when I'm away. If I'm home, my dog and cat are hanging out with me.

About: I have been a dog lover for as long as I can remember! I wasn’t able to have my own growing up so I fixed this by dog sitting for anyone and everyone who would let me. In college there were months where I had a different dog every weekend. My dream has always been to have a house full of fur babies. I currently work full time in healthcare and am very comfortable with medications and treating illnesses. As I work full time I am only available on weekends. I am available to day care or overnight stays. I have extra kennels available. My dog Finn and I always go on a long walk in the mornings. I have a an open concept house with fenced in yard where the dogs can go and play. My neighborhood is quiet with lots of streets to go walking on. There are always other neighbors out walking their dogs. I have extra kennels available if needed. I do allow dogs on my furniture and bed.


“Lauryn always takes great care of my cat, and my cat has gotten more comfortable with her each time I’m out of town which says a lot for my timid girl! I also get lots of pictures which I appreciate!”


“Kelly was great! She took care of a four of our kitties while we were gone in a quick weekend trip. She took care of them per our instructions and everything was in order when we returned. Gave me peace of mind knowing they were in good hands.”


About: I currently have 2 dogs, a cane corso and french bulldog. I’ve spent my whole life watching over friends/families cats and dogs, ranging from different sizes and breeds. Where I live has a backyard for some outdoor play time and cool air conditioning inside. I love animals and am excited to be doing this to make money on the side because it brings me so much joy!! I am currently in school but am home for most days of the week, so my schedule is super flexible. I will always be around to make sure your pet has the attention they need along with frequent potty breaks and walks! I strive to create the perfect stress free environment for your dogs happiness! Whether this involves treats or frequent cuddles and play time. I do my best to communicate with my clients as well as strictly following instructions.

About: Hi there! I’ve lived on land my whole life and worked in rehabilitating horses/cats specifically. Currently, I work from home and tend to my families ranch 15 mins away as a ranch hand that ranges from basic to extreme care when needed. I’ve cared for kittens/ puppies, senior animals and every age in between. I’ve administered many types of medications (pills to injections) and have taken care of all different sizes/breeds (dogs & cats). I have a completely fenced backyard and leashes are always used aside from there. Potty breaks available 24/7. Communication is always open with me and updates/ pictures are always provided. Pet care is top priority with me and if your fur baby has a schedule, takes medication, has allergies, or any behaviors to look out for; please let me know so it’s like they never left home :) Also if you have a walking schedule I am happy to accommodate as well. I have a completely fenced yard, 2 large dog crates, water & food bowls along with dog beds/ blankets for your fur baby to enjoy!

“Malexy took wonderful care of our cat, Sandy. She gave thorough updates and notified us of issues, like when Sandy didn't eat food that had her medicine mixed in. She implemented solutions and told us how she addressed these issues. Her judgement on solving the problems was impeccable. We would highly recommend Malexy's services.”


About: Hi! I’m a very active individual and believe interactive play and runs are the best way to keep dogs active. I also love watching dogs learn and grow and as well as how loving they can be I work remote, and have a consistent schedule. So I use my routine to help build one for other animals as well. Morning runs. Several breaks during work and the some hardcore playtime when I’m off Walks and boarding other animals I will usually sleep in a separate room from my wife and either keep the pups in the crate or have them sleep next to me. Whatever they are accustomed to so they feel more at home. Home if child safe so very little to go wrong with any dog. When running or walking, I will carry and expandable plate and extra water for the pups,
