“We had the absolute best experience with Viridianne looking after our cat while we were away for an extended period of time. Communication was above and beyond, which made us feel so comfortable being away from our cat. She’s dependable and obviously loves animals! We will definitely ask for her services in the future when we are away ☺️”
“Katie is the best, as always! Can administer medicine which puts our minds at ease as we have one cat with asthma. Always sends lots of pictures and makes sure our kitties are happy and well taken care of! She is great!”
“Makayla took amazing care of my cats, every instruction was followed and my cats were loved while I was away! She is trustworthy, accommodating, sweet, and knowledgeable on all animals. Highly recommend Makayla to anyone needing pet care support!”
About: I have had dogs and cats of my own for 20 years. I have also fostered many dogs for animal shelters. I have experience with all sorts of situations from puppy training all the way to senior pet care. I also have horses that I care for. I work from home and am around all the time except when running errands. I usually have a dog on my lap while working for at least part of every day! I have a schedule I try to keep as far as feeding but potty breaks are throughout the day as needed. I have a huge fenced yard (about an acre) for lots of running and playing room. I crate my dogs when I leave the house and can crate for separation, if needed. I separate at mealtimes to avoid fights over food. I also have multiple gates between rooms for separation and containment.
“Katherine was absolutely excellent! She hit it off with my dog upon our meet up, and every day she stopped by she was very friendly with her! And her pictures were absolutely top notch. If I ever need mother dog sitter I'll 100% book you again”
About: I’ve taken care of my own dogs for about 5 years. I currently have a 4 year old Aussie border collie mix who has reactivity issues and is very timid so i have taken training classes on how to work with a dog in situations like that. i also grew up in a house with multiple different sizes and breeds of dogs. I work part time at a restaurant in town and have a dog of my own but i do understand what it’s like to need some time away and make sure your pup is in trusted hands. I live on alittle over an acre with a cattle dog who is very high energy. we go on 3 4 mile walks a week and he is able to come and go from the house whenever he pleases. He is crate trained and he is on a strict feeding schedule. I get him groomed once a month and regular vet visits for up to date shots.
“Kids were fed, watered, litterbox scooped, walked, proof of life given (pictures), and the door was locked. Couldn't ask for more! Thanks for walking the two cats that like to go out.”
“Kayla is the sweetest!! She made sure my kitty was safe and showed me plenty of pictures of her. You can tell she really loves animals. Very pleasant, if I ever need anyone to watch my animals, it will be Kayla ❤️❤️”
“We would definitely recommend Shakira and will absolutely be contacting her again ourselves! She was excellent and patient with our two dogs and understood each of their differences. Shakira is very considerate and conscientious, too. Outstanding experience!”
About: I’ve had pets my entire life, mostly small animals. I love them all and currently own pets now and especially love adopting them. I can provide consistent care for your pet. I’m a stay at home mom and my kids are in school so I have a lot of time on my hands during the day but I wouldn’t object to some evenings if needed. I will feed, water, and walk your dog and clean up after them. If they need any special care I can accommodate them as needed.
About: I have been fortunate to know what it’s like to have someone care for your pets that truly love them and that feeling is the best! To know that someone really cares and wants to spend time with your animals settles a lot of anxiety and worry. That’s what I want to provide for people =) I currently work an alternating schedule which leaves days of opportunity to takecare of your fur babies! We can definitely schedule out the days you’d need! I have a fenced in yard and a crate available if you’d like for your dog and mine to be separated. If not, our doggies can be the best of friends!
About: If you book with me I can assure you a safe, fun, and nurturing environment with plenty of playtime, cuddles, and expert attention for your loving animals. Peace of mind for you— paradise and tail wags for them! 💞🐾 I have extensive experience with cats and dogs. I’m 25 and I grew up with so many cats, dogs, reptiles, I have even helped rescue deer, owls, pigs, and goats before too! I specialize in dog training, I have been doing it for 7 years now and have loved every minute of it- it is my true passion!! ❤️ That is another great reason to book with me, since I am well equipped to handle the many behaviors dogs may experience during their stay, and doing it in a safe manner as well. I have trained and rehabilitated many dogs that had severe anxiety and aggression too, some of them eventually became service dogs because of how well they transformed into a better version of themselves! I’m experienced with many different breeds, ages, and sizes of dogs so I am well versed in knowing personalities and behaviors and how to handle them in any way. ❤️😁 If you book with me your dog will experience fun activities such as enrichment toys, puzzle games, walks on trails, public outings such as to stores, parks, certain restaurants. They will also get to join pack walks, play time with other dogs, and one on one time with me! And if your dog is a couch potato 🥔 they can cozy up on the dog couch and enjoy their vacation in peace! 🏝️🐕💛 If you book with me your dog will experience a safe, fun, peaceful environment to where they will be excited to come back again! 🐾🎾 it is the opposite of when they go to the vet and have their tail tucked all nervously- your dog will have their tail wagging in the wind and jumping of joy as soon as you pull into my driveway because they know this is the place for fun and relaxation!! 🥳🥰🙌 All activities are very structured here. All dogs are supervised at all times when they are not crated, and when they are crated they are supervised by a camera I have connected to an app in my phone! Things are very structured in a sense of safety, behavior, and peace within all of the dogs during their stay. That’s where being a dog trainer comes in handy and the dogs can have fun while being in a calm state of mind! 😉🧘♀️💗🐾 I have three large dog yards- two are fenced in with 6ft privacy fence, and one yard is 6ft chain link fence. They can go potty, play, sun bathe, play in the dog pool, or just enjoy the fresh air. This is also nice if your dog isn’t aloud around other dogs- they will have their own large area to do their business and enjoy their time outdoors in a safe private area too!! 😌❤️ Cats love it here too! 🐈🐈⬛ your furry baby will get to enjoy toys, lick mats, cat castles and scratching boards. Even some cat nip if they’d like 🤪😸, and plenty of cuddles to “make biscuits”. 🥰🐾 If your dog can’t be around other dogs or cats, that is no problem here. I have plenty of room to give dogs and cats their own private space to still keep them at peace and accommodate to their needs during their stay! I like to match personalities within dogs so they can make great friends while they are on their vacation too!! It is also no problem if your dog/cat is on any medications as well- they will be issued them as directed during their stay and I am well experienced with that as well, so don’t worry about that! ❤️🩹🩺🐾 I always send plenty of updates by text with photos and videos during their stay so you don’t feel left out as I know it’s hard to leave our fur babies while we’re away! 📲📸🥰 If you book with me I can assure you your fur babies will have a blast and want to come back for more, there is plenty of love to go around here and I hope to meet your furry companions soon! 💞🐕🐕🦺🦮🐩🐈⬛🐈💞 I currently am a dog trainer, though I am still flexible and available to schedule at your convenience! Sometimes my mornings can be quite busy, but I will always do everything I can to exhaust all measures in making sure scheduling you isn’t a problem! I have 4 dogs- 2 German shepherds and 2 shepherd mix breeds. 3 are female 1 is male. I have 1 male indoor cat and 5 outdoor cats. I can assure your fur baby won’t feel lonely with the company of my own companions!! 💞 -I have multiple different rooms your fur baby can stay in if they need their own private space. -3 large fenced in yards. -structured play time with other dogs and solo play time. -pack walks and solo walks -public outings/hikes -crated when unsupervised to ensure safety of all dogs -enrichment toy/puzzle time each day to mentally stimulate and help soothe your dog -endless cuddles and love to go around 💗🥰🐾
About: I’ve been dog sitting on and off for about 4 years. It brings me joy to playing with them and seeing their tags wag with excitement! I am currently working full time at a walgreens in my town as while taking online classes to get my certification in vet assistant. I plan on working part time instead to do more of what i love which is taking care of animals. I would ask my client if there is a routine or any special accommodations that I need to go by or do for their fur baby.
