About: I understand how important it is to keep your pup happy, safe, and comfortable while you’re away. Whether it’s sticking to their feeding and walking schedule, playing fetch, or just giving them some extra cuddles, I’m all in for making sure they feel loved and cared for. I’m patient with all kinds of personalities—from the energetic zoomers to the chill couch potatoes—and I’m quick to pick up on their unique needs. Plus, I’ll keep you updated with photos or messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry friend is in good hands! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine—it’s like a built-in rhythm. Mornings usually start with feeding them and a quick check-in to see how they’re doing. If I’ve got a dog, a walk’s non-negotiable; it’s good for both of us. Throughout the day, it’s little things—refilling water, a bit of playtime, or just keeping an eye out for anything off. Weekly, I carve out time for grooming, like brushing or a bath if they need it, and I’ll check supplies—food, treats, meds—to make sure I’m not running low. It’s less about ‘fitting it in’ and more about it being a priority that keeps me grounded. For clients’ dogs, I stick to their playbook. They say ‘feed at 8, one scoop,’ I’m on it. Walks are by their clock—long ones, short loops, whatever the dog needs. I’ll toss a ball or just hang out if that’s their vibe. I watch for quirks—doesn’t eat without a pat, hates rain, that stuff—and adjust. Messes don’t linger I swipe paws if it’s wet out. They get a dog that’s fed, exercised, and happy, and a house still intact.

“Marah is the best dogsitter on this app. She will treat your dog like it's hers. My dog loves going to Marah's and she is always tired and happy when I pick her up. Marah is extremely friendly and makes sure that your dog is well taken care of. I never have to worry about my dog with her because she will have the best of care! I would give Marah a 10 out 5 if I could.”

About: I have been raising and caring for a variety of animals for over 25 years! Having experience with all kinds of animals, I know the importance of meeting the needs of each animal and giving it the love and care it deserves and desires. I have several families that reach out to me when they are planning a trip so that I can care for their pets while they are away. I understand the importance of maintaining the pet owners routine, commands, and affection with their pets to help reduce anxiety and stress while they are away. My goal is to love their pets as if they are my own. I have cared for our own dogs as seniors and have experience with failing body functions and know how to administer medications and assist the animal with getting up and moving around. I also have much experience with puppies since I breed Australian Shepherds and care for the puppies from the time they are born until they are at an appropriate age and health standard to go to their new families. I am so excited to meet many other pet families in our area and live on your pet so you can feel comfortable and at peace any time you need to travel and your pet has to stay behind. It’s hard enough to say good-bye, so having peace of mind on how they will be cared for while you are away can make a good trip a GREAT one!! I am available most days of the week for 24/7 care since we are a homeschooling family and I am a stay at home mom. Pets are allowed in our home as long as they get along well with other pets and children. I do have an unground fence and collars that I can use to teach your pet to stay in our yard. I also have two nice size kennels that give dogs plenty of room to wander inside and outside the kennel walls.

About: I have had cats dogs and livestock my whole life . I am now retired with 1 covid foster fail named Luna. We started fostering after all our animals passed of old age and long story short adopted her. Best dog EVER! We love to spoil dogs with lots of play, walks on the Riverwalk and always try to pick pet friendly places to visit including restaurants. We also have a pool if yours like water! Let me give your pup a doggy vacay while you enjoy yours. I am currently enjoying retirement and very flexible with my schedule. We are home during the day and a couple times a week we do dinners or evenings out I have a fenced in yard and a pool in the birdcage. We have a great neighborhood for walking as well as our neighborhood preserve with walking paths.

About: As a devoted & experienced SAHM, I have proudly cared for a variety of animals for over 15 years. Dogs, cats, rabbits - you name it! Families entrust their furry companions to my care, often rebooking my services due to their satisfaction & peace of mind. From feeding and exercise to cozy snuggles and playtime, I will create a joyful, nurturing environment where your pets thrive & your family feels confident in my care. I am able to seamlessly incorporate pet care into my daily/weekly routines because my schedule is often flexible. I ensure all of your pets needs are met with consistency & love. I prioritize their well-being alongside my family responsibilities. In my home, I provide a warm and welcoming environment for pets to feel comfortable and cherished. I designate safe areas for play and relaxation, ensuring they have ample space to roam and explore. Whether it's dog walking, house sitting, or pet daycare, I tailor my services to suit the specific needs of each pet and client. For dog walking, I take pups on enjoyable strolls in the neighborhood or nearby parks, providing them with exercise and fresh air. If house sitting is required, I ensure the pets receive round-the-clock care, maintaining their routines, and offering companionship in the comfort of their own home. In the case of pet daycare, I create an engaging atmosphere filled with toys, interactive play, and socialization opportunities, allowing pets to have a fun-filled day while their owners are away. Regardless of the service provided, I prioritize safety, hygiene, and regular communication with pet owners, ensuring they are informed and at ease throughout the entire process.

About: Ever since I can remember I've had dogs, cats, brids, ferrets, rats, hamsters, fish, snakes, you name it! I love animals and love watching them thrive in healthy, happy habitats! I am a stay at home mom and spend a lot of my time at home taking care of my children, house, and mini farm. Your dog can follow me around (on or off leash) while I'm in and out of the house or I can put them on a leash, let them burn off engery in the backyard (fenced-in) as long as they are not a chicken killer.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats since I was a baby and I am extremely passionate about caring for animals properly. I am fun easy going and will imply whatever training you are trying to enforce for your pet. I will treat your pet as if it were my own while he or she is in my care. I am a very easy going person who isn’t going to mistreat your animal in any way. I do my absolute best to give any animal the best experience while they are with me as possible. That includes lots of pampering, baths if necessary, brushing the dog out if necessary, (and if tolerated!) my biggest love and passion is caring for animals and making sure they are happy healthy and have an amazing time spent with me. Currently serving at a restaurant that is directly in front of my house and I don’t work many or long shifts so taking care of your pet will be no problem plus I am very active and always going on hikes or playing at the lake I always make sure I am aware of any quirks or important things about your dog as to keep everyone happy and safe while away from mom and/or dad

About: My childhood was filled of all kinds of pets and pups. My whole life I've always had at least 3 fury babies in my life. I was intrigued by how intelligent our pets are so I began to work with them. I'm very good with all kinds of training from pups, teens, to our grandparent's. I've trained dogs for a couple of friends as well as my grandma's farm dogs ( Great Pyrenees). Today I have four babies and they are all well trained. I have four large dogs that I take care of everyday. Once a day I take my dogs to the park for walks. we go on, hikes, swims, and we go to pet friendly areas for people connections. I would love to bring your loved one along with me. I have a perimeter collar for my hound dog and leashes with harnesses for my other three. I am very alert around my dogs . They are just like children you have to keep a close eye one them. My dogs are also inside dogs. I would treat ur dog like one of my own. Your baby is safe in my care.
