Ginger is everything you would want in a dog sitter. She was extremely organized and thorough in the meet and greet. You can tell immediately that she has a lot of experience doing this and that she’s good at it. She is prompt, stays the amount of time you’ve agreed upon, and communication is great throughout the entire booking. You get plenty of pictures and updates. And, of course, probably most importantly… She is really great with the dogs.

Cassie is very caring and companionate with animals. She currently works for a vet clinic so she has a lot of experience with both cats and dogs. I myself have two golden retrievers and she takes the best care of them when I need her to.

Miranda took care of our two cats on multiple occasions. She is a compassionate person, who puts extra attention and care into her work. She took extra time to play with our boys every time she visited, on top of ensuring their food was taken care of, and the litter box was clean. I highly recommend working with her!

About: I’ve been working with animals professionally now for 3 years. I have worked in shelters, clinics, and doggy daycare and boarding as well as owned animals my whole life. I am currently going to school for dog training! I have multiple pets in my home every day. I have a dog named Zoomie, a cat named Nala, and a pet rat named Rocket. Zoomie and Nala get fed twice a while getting enrichment activities daily. Zoomie gets walks and playtime in the yard and Nala has her own leash and harness and gets to explore the yard as well. I am also going through dog training school so all day I am learning new things about different dog breeds and enrichment. I currently am a full time student and have a part time job so my schedule changes weekly! I have been learning different enrichment activities and training exercises that will help a dog stay mentally enriched and would plan on walking the dogs multiple times a day so that their physical exercise is met. I am quite flexible and can do almost any special requests that a client might need!

About: Ever since I was a kid, I’ve had a special bond with dogs. My first “client” was my neighbor’s golden retriever, Max, who would wait by the fence every afternoon for our daily walk. As I got older, word spread, and soon I was walking and sitting dogs of all shapes and sizes—energetic huskies, stubborn bulldogs, and the sweetest little dachshund who insisted on being carried halfway through every walk. Each dog taught me something—patience, responsibility, and the pure joy of companionship. Whether it was early morning walks, rainy-day snuggles, or playing fetch until we were both exhausted, I loved every moment. Now, I bring that same love and care to every pup I meet, treating them like family. I’m available for pet care throughout the day, making it easy to fit into your schedule. Here’s a general outline of my availability: Morning Walks & Care (7 AM – 11 AM): Perfect for early risers or dogs who need a morning potty break, exercise, or feeding. Midday Visits & Walks (11 AM – 3 PM): Great for pet parents at work who need someone to check in, provide a walk, or give some midday love and attention. Afternoon & Evening Walks (3 PM – 7 PM): Ideal for after-work exercise, feeding, or an evening potty break. Overnight & Extended Care (Available Upon Request): If you need pet sitting for a few hours, overnight, or while you’re away, I offer customized care to keep your pet happy and comfortable. I’m flexible and happy to adjust based on your pet’s needs! Reach out anytime to schedule a visit. Reliable Dog Walking & In-Home Pet Visits I offer personalized care for your pets, whether they need a refreshing walk or a comforting visit at home. Dog Walking: Regular walks help keep your pup happy, healthy, and full of energy. Whether it’s a quick potty break or a long adventure, I tailor each walk to your dog’s needs—rain or shine! In-Home Visits: Need someone to check in on your pet while you’re away? I provide in-home visits that include feeding, potty breaks, playtime, and lots of love to ensure your pet feels safe and comfortable. I treat every pet like family and adjust to their unique routine. Contact me to schedule a walk or visit today!

My dear friend Tanya is amazing with pets of all kind! She used to have a dog of her own, Ms. Sasha, who was loved and took care of so well. She also has 2 cats. However, most importantly Tanya love pets that aren't her own. I have two little doggies who have been calling her Aunt Tanya for years. When we went on a vacation trip to Florida and recently we needed someone to watch our doggies. We were debating either to take them to Aunt Tanya or to the vet because of one of our dogs had injured her back legs and couldn't walk. We thought staying with Aunt Tanya would be best because she would get tender care and we were right. Tanya helped our little Dottie girl walk again by massaging her back legs while we were away. Tanya sent us updates all the time and when we saw that our little Dottie was walking again we were overjoyed. She is amazinggggg! We love our Aunt Tanya! ❤️

Leah has cared for both of my doggos and does a great job! She's come to my house to babysit while I'm out of town and I felt better knowing someone was there with my babies all the time. She also cared for my senior dog before he crossed the rainbow bridge. He was on daily medications and had physical limitations due to age and arthritis. I highly recommend Leah, both of my hounds absolutely love her!
