“Nila has one of the kindest soul’s around and I believe that’s what makes her a great caregiver for your pets. Extremely organized and professional, she takes the responsibility as seriously as taking care of her own animals and she never backs down from a challenge! Nila watched my dog, Foxy, for a couple of days and foxy fell in love. I would absolutely recommend Nila as well as use her services again. She treats animals with respect and love and that’s all you need to know when making the decision of who to go with. I hope your pets will love her as much as mine do. -rc”

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. :)

About: I’ve had animals and taken care of animals my entire life. Anywhere from 5 cats all named Blacky growing up to a cow named curly Q, I’ve taken care and loved them all. I currently have 3 fur babies and they run my world. They give me purpose every day, and fill my heart up of joy just by breathing. I know the importance of taking care of animals just like their your own because they are members of our family. I will treat every animal as if they are my own and give them cuddles, play fetch, or rub their belly as much as needed. I recognize that animals all have different personalities and that a need to cater to them and alter your lifestyle around them and always do what makes them happy. I’m currently working part time and have a lot of free time to care for your pups or cats or any other animals you may own! I have a fenced yard and three friendly dogs that love to play with other dogs! I have plenty of treats and toys for the pups as well!

“Kaitlyn is very friendly, personable, & her love for dogs is very apparent. My dogs cozied right up to her on the first meeting. I felt completely confident in Kaitlyn’s ability to care for my animals while I was out of town for 4 days & she did very well, even administering several medications. I will definitely use her again. The next time I will request that she spend a little more time with them, throwing a ball to chase, playing tug, anything to help them burn up a little energy & knock the edge off their boredom.”

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:)
