“Maxi is fantastic! She was punctual and very kind. I highly recommended using Maci!”


About: Growing up, my family always had animals. I was the youngest, therefore I was responsible for every animal on the property! When I got older, I started raising my own animals from chickens to pigs and even snakes! Whatever the animal, I’m sure I’ve cared for them in some way. :) I’m here to ensure your companion has an easy and fulfilled experience. I recently finished my first year of college and I will have plenty of time to walk and play with all your loved ones! Any special requests will be completed. I do have an outside yard as well as a crate in case your furry friend has to come over to my house. Overnights they will indulge in a comfy dog bed, in a warm cozy house. Any routines will be followed through 100% to give animal satisfaction as if owner was still home. :)

“She was very patient with our dog who is very shy of humans. She took the time and extra effort to make him as comfortable as possible. We look forward to using Rita again!”


About: I have learned so many tips and awareness from professional dog training friends. One of my favorite things to do is walk, I love dogs! Its important to communicate with pet parents their wants and needs for your baby. Every dog is unique and precious. I create my own schedule, which allows me to accommodate and be flexible. I can wake up early and usually prefer to make visits before dark. Hydration is key! I love a balance of outdoor and indoor time for all involved unless asked otherwise. I have a crate if needed. I follow the parents request to the best of my ability. So whatever is recommended is what is getting prioritized. Communication is important and I am happy to send photos of your happy baby to reassure you that your little one is in good hands.

About: I’ve been working with dogs, cats, and horses since I was 12 years old:) I have 2 super spoiled cats and 2 small dogs in my house (who are just as spoiled😂). Im also currently going to school to earn my pet grooming degree so I’m constantly around animals and will make sure your fur babies get the best care:) I currently work part time and am going to school but I will be available Saturday through Monday every week for all your pet care needs:) I have 4 animals. All of them are friendly and active so I would be open to boarding small dogs that get along with dogs and cats:) i will make sure your animal gets plenty of attention and the right care and I have no problem with taking care of animals that are puppies, elderly, active, or need medication or monitoring:)

“Hey there, I have been friends with Anila for almost 10 years now. During those times I’ve had three small dogs. What I loved about our friendship and still love to this day is that Anila is so inclusive with my dogs. I don’t have children. My dogs are everything to me and she’s always talking to them petting them and making sure they are cared for when she is around. I used to be a dog trainer at Petco for about five years and the patience and inclusiveness Anila shows to animals around her is something that cannot be taught no matter how many lessons you give someone. Your company would be super lucky to have such a valuable employee representing you. My best for Anila. True”
