I take pride in pet care and fulfilling your pets needs while you are away. I personally own three dogs, a cat, a horse, and nine ducks- and I wouldn’t have it any other way! Please reach out to for any services you may be interested in, I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies! I pet-sit full time and love to spend my days helping others in need. I am always open to finding a spot for you in my schedule, so please reach out! I would love to host your pet and I can assure you all pets stay separated in my care (unless you request a play date with my submissive and friendly hound!)

18. Denise & Lee C.
About: We love to play fetch. Go on walks and the companionship of having a pet here. We have a doggy door in our home that leads outside to a porch then to a sizable back yard. I have been through dog obedience training with previous dogs. We currently do have 2 puppies . We would like the company of watching your dogs while you are away. We are willing to bend on the furniture if you allow them on yours. We are willing to keep the same rules you have in your home as not to interfere with your training. We are very good with dogs. Our home is very pet friendly. We will play and love your pets as if they were our own. We do exercise before and after work. Our pups are very playful also so they will play hard. We have many toys to play with. They will be with us at all times. If we are at work I have a divider between the living room and kitchen to separate them.

About: I grew up in the country with many animals to take care of. Prior to the pandemic friends have always asked me to take care of their cats and dogs while they were away. I am working a part time job at the moment but it is flexible so I can work around almost any schedule. I am only unable to evenings, after 5 pm. I am able to care for animals in my home.
