About: I have taken care of multiple friends pets for days , if not weeks straight. I've worked at multiple shelters helping out with dog walking and cleaning , and I've also volunteered at functions to raise funds for shelters. The joke is with my faculty I am the resident dog guru. I am a teacher so i'm able to do very early walks starting at 5:30am. I have to be at work by 7:30 am. I am done with school by 4:30, except January- March when I have to be back to director musical practice. If you need someone to how sit your pet. I guarantee that I will try my best to be at the house and not running errands, except to go to work. I'm a big believer in if I'm taking care of an animal in their own home that I need to be at that house as long as I possibly can because that pet deserves the companionship and the freedom to be let out to play. I love taking long walks.I enjoy nature and so taking longer walks with animals does not bother me.

About: My family has always had a dog around since I was a little girl! So I’m comfortable giving all dogs, whether the breed, the best care! I’m currently a weekend package person so I’m home full time during the week for all your dog needs whether it’s daycare, walking or boarding! I have a fenced in yard and 2 dogs who love to play with other dogs so your fur baby will have company! Also have a 1.5 year old who loves all dogs so no dog will go without any pets or lovings!

About: Hi, you can call me Lolo. I am a big lover of dogs and had a small dog growing up. I have been walking dogs since the summer of 2021. I have experience with walking medium sized and smaller dogs, but I am open to any size and type of breeds. I even have experience watching cats and had birds growing up as a child. I am currently a stay at home mom which gives me more flexibility and choosing to do what I love the most, which is spending time with and taking of dogs! I am very responsible, attentive, and outgoing which are all some qualities I think are very important when it comes to taking care of dogs. I am looking forward to meeting you and your sweet dog(s)! I am a stay at home mom and have a lot of downtime to spend some time with your dogs. Pet care is a job for me and my schedule is very flexible! I have crate training experience. My neighborhood is very safe and I live in a house with a lot of trees and woods so the dogs can run around. There are not too many dogs around, so you won’t have to worry about other dogs!


“Our normally well-behaved dogs decided to ransack their room while we were gone for an afternoon. Upon her arrival at our house, not only did Amanda straighten up their mess but she also fed them, spent plenty of time with them outside, sent me pics of her visit, and even left them treats for Christmas. Would highly recommend Amanda to anyone seeking a reliable, trustworthy pet sitter who goes the extra mile for her clients.”



“Shelby is great! Second booking, just as nice of an experience. We were able to relax and enjoy time with the family, knowing we have a reliable person to take care of our pups, and we didn't have to rush back home, as we usually do. She has a special place in heart for animals and it shows.”


About: I was known as Dr. Dolittle as a child as I have had turtles, dogs, cats, salamanders, hampsters, mice, fish, hermit crabs, and guinea pigs as pets. In my adult years I have had years of dog walking and pet sitting dogs as large as St. Bernards and as small as chihuahuas both on and off leash. I have experience with senior animals and giving medications to dogs and cats. I am currently working part-time in four hour shifts at the library and am available for your pet care needs the other 20 hours! Whether it be pet sitting in your home (for any type of animal), check ins, or dog walking. I spend as much time and individual attention as I can on your pets. I treat them and your home as if they were my own. I usually take pictures of your fur baby while on the job so you know they are in good hands.

“Anne was wonderful with my cat, Lia. My cat seemed to enjoy the visits and extra attention. Anne was also great with communication and sending photos of what Lia was up to. Will definitely reach out to Anne in the future when needed!”


“Brittany did a fantastic job with my crew of 4 dogs!! They loved her. She gave updates after each visit and was very quick on her response. I will absolutely reach out to her again to care for my fur babies. Thank you Brittany!!!”


“This was our first time using Karisa and Kelly and we are very happy with their care. We were gone 10 days and used them for drop in visits so our 2 dogs could stay in their own surroundings. We received pictures and a report card each day. When Karisa stopped in to return our key our dogs were so excited to see her. It was very obvious they had a great relationship with her. I would definitely recommend these sitters and will use them again. Thank you Karisa and Kelly!”


About: I love the outdoors and I would love to take dogs hiking, running or for a walk. I can be adaptable for the needs of your dog. I love dogs and being around them makes me happy. If you chose me your dog will be in good hands. I am reliable, honest and caring. I have 2 dogs of my own, a lab/GSD mix and a yound GSD. I have also watched dogs for people when they left town for the weekend before and I enjoy it. When I walk dogs, I like to go walking for at least a couple of miles. I promise to give your dog the attention and care they need. Feel free to contact me with any questions. I have a 5 year old lab/gsd and a 2 year old GSD. I care for my dogs, give them exercise and make sure they are happy. I enjoy hiking with my dogs, camping and bringing them to the dog beach. For a special treat, I freeze dog food in kongs as enrichment for my dogs. One of my dogs is a rescue and the other we have raised since she was 8 weeks old. My dogs are a big part of my family. One of my dogs has a lot of allergies so I have to pay special attention to his diet and products. I live in an apartment so I am used to keeping my dogs safe by being on a leash and both of my dogs are crate trained. I will provide the best care based on dog owners instructions.

About: I have grown up with several felines and canines my entire life. I have been responsible for their care for several years, including several animals in their older years. I possess a quite relaxed personality, which is beneficially picked up by most animals. I am also capable of providing necessary exercise for animals of an increased energetic disposition. Dog walks can be taken at a leisurely pace, or one more accelerated, depending on dog's needs. I am looking to supplement my current income, as well as enjoy the company of more cats and dogs. My current job offers flexible hours, so I am available most hours during the afternoon to night for necessary care needs (walks, feeding, letting out,vet appointments). I look forward to satisfying your pets needs.

About: I’ve been lucky to be able to be around animals of all kinds big and small and also be able to call it part of my job. From dogs and cats to horses, donkeys, llamas, chickens, goats, etc I’ve had experience with them all. Administering medications, walks, food, water, potty breaks, exercise, companionship whatever your pets needs are I provide it. Along with waste removal and nail trims too. This is my full time job while I also help my husband run a tile and handyman business. I’m available for overnights boarding in my home, daycare, visits in your home, or daily walks or check ins. I’m have a very open availability and would love to help with your pet care needs. I have a fenced in yard and can crate them if needed. They are welcome in the house if staying here and we also have two extra rooms attached to the house they can be in. I have one friendly dog if they like to play or I can easily seperate if needed. When coming to your home I can do multiple visits a day, walks, medication, whatever they may need.
