About: With over 15 years of hands-on experience in pet care, I’ve spent most of my life caring for animals and building trusting, meaningful relationships with them. I’m deeply passionate about animal welfare and have worked in a variety of roles including groomer, doggy daycare attendant, veterinary assistant, and dog trainer. Currently, I’m a full-time student studying Wildlife Management and Ecology, which gives me a flexible schedule that works well with pet sitting. Whether you need daily walks, medication administration, or just someone to give your pet loving attention while you’re away, I offer dependable care tailored to your schedule and your pet’s unique needs. I specialize in in-home pet sitting services that prioritize your pet’s comfort and routine. My services include: • Walks and exercise • Feeding and playtime • Medication administration • Personalized attention and companionship I’m a full time student majoring in Wildlife Management & Ecology, but I still maintain a flexible calendar that allows me to reliably fit in pet care around my classes. I’m always happy to coordinate with each client to find visit times that work well for both of us, so your pet receives consistent, thoughtful care and attention. When caring for pets in my clients’ homes, I focus on maintaining a familiar, low-stress environment where your pet feels safe and secure. I provide attentive care tailored to their routine, including walks, feeding, playtime, medication administration, and any specific needs they may have. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality so I can offer care that feels comforting and consistent while you’re away.

About: I grew up with cats and dogs, love animals, provide love and affectionate care for them. Currently care for 1 dog, 6 cats and 6 bunnies. I'm passionate about animal care. I have a pretty flexible schedule and am available most holidays, or weekends. Enjoy playing and exercising with pets. 🩷💚 I can give plenty of exercise and playtime. I will brush dogs and cats. Love ❤️ to cuddle and comfort them throughout my time with them.

“Becky is the absolute best. She took care of my dog 100% and was very helpful and understanding. She was very responsive after the walks and how Buster did on the walks. I will use her again.”


About: My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends and volunteering over the years. I have had dogs in my family since I was 10. I have a flexible schedule and work part-time, so I can work with many other time requests and schedules. I can care for your pet on weekends also. I have a very large yard for your dog to play in and I have 2 friendly dogs to keep them company. I can crate your pet also if needed.

About: I have had both dogs and cats all my life. Many friends and family over the years have trusted their pets to be in my care. I just recently left my full-time job to be self-employed with the small business my partner and I started. My schedule is quite flexible and open at this time. I promise to provide quality care to each pet with attentiveness and enriching play time and walks as necessary. I am happy to follow any personal covid related protocols any client may have.

“Becky was a perfect choice! She was friendly and caring with our dog. She communicated very well and sent photos which we really appreciated. We highly recommend Becky and will try to book her the next time we are in the area. Many thanks.”


“Julia is great! She’s been walking our George for a couple weeks now and we will continue to use her services going forward. She is trustworthy and reliable. We are impressed with her level of professionalism. Previous walkers have not taken the job as serious. She truly cares about the animals she tends too and making sure the owners are informed. One of my favorite things is to read George’s report card after each walk! We would highly recommend Julia”


About: I have owned and watch dogs but also cats. I have a love for animals and I get very excited meeting new ones. It’s the best experience to me. I’m available anytime. I would be able to do last minute set ups. I’m sometimes away from home around 2-4 pm but that’s not often Everyone in the house loves animals, especially dogs. The most love is given like their our own. We get very excited and take them out for long walks. My dog has been around puppies before and he loves to be around other dogs.

“Deahndra is amazing with our 3 dogs, thats right, 3 dogs! She’s been walking then since May and they absolutely love her. She’s always there when we need her, almost as if she’s on call. My 3 dogs not only enjoy the walks but I’ve seen improvements on how well they walk for me- it’s a win win! My absolute favorite is that Deahndra takes pictures of my fur babies while I’m at work. Deahndra is always keeping me in the loop with what’s going on and how much fun they’re having(without me :( )”


About: My whole life I’ve had dogs, they are truly apart of the family to us! I also worked at a doggy daycare for two summers! Luckily my schedule is mostly free! Right now, I’m currently working a part time job and am willing to pet care at any point and time! I have plenty of toys and fun little activities to bring along for your furry friend to enjoy! Most importantly, treats and cuddles are included :)

About: I have been raised with dogs my entire life. I have cared for my own dogs, as well as friend and family's dogs. Growing up we had many dogs in our home, small to large, puppies to elderly, and have cared for them. I also have 4 dogs of my own and we have had 3 litters of AKC purebred puppies. I am most available for boarding as I do work during the week but we are happy to have dogs come and have someone to let them out frequently during the day until I get home. We do have lots of baseball games for our 3 boys so will need to pop in and out at times. Otherwise I am available for boarding most days of the week, unless out of town for activities for our 3 boys. I have a fenced yard and 4 friendly and active dogs: 3 German Shorthaired Pointers (ages 6.5, 5, and 1) and a Corgi (age 2). We also have an elderly cat in the home. Our boys are ages 12, 9 and 6.

About: Growing up, animals were always a big part of my life. I had dogs, cats, guinea pigs, turtles, and even birds, and caring for them quickly became second nature to me. I’ve always felt a deep connection with animals. I love their energy, their personalities, and the unconditional love they give. Over the years, I’ve learned that every animal is different. Each one has their own needs, their own comfort levels, and their own way of feeling safe and happy. I’m very aware and respectful of that, and I always take the time to understand and adapt to what each animal needs. I’m a naturally patient, calm, and caring person, and spending time with animals has always brought me a sense of peace and joy. Now, I’m excited to share that same love, awareness, and care through dog walking, giving pets a little extra happiness while their owners are away. Pet care is like any other day. I have a dog of my own, so daily walks and time spent outdoors are just part of my routine. I don’t stress about it and take it day by day, making sure to give each dog the time and attention they need. Whether it’s a quick walk or a longer adventure, I make sure they’re getting fresh air and some love along the way. At home, I make sure my pets are comfortable and happy whether it’s giving my dog plenty of playtime, keeping their space clean, or just hanging out. For walks, I make sure they are leashed and in a safe area as well as get the right amount of exercise. My home has high fences all around with two doors in the back and front so it’s ideal for my dogs to hang around on warm days. I provide water bowls for them as well. When it comes to caring for other people’s pets, I treat them like my own, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and comfortable, whether they’re at my house or theirs. I adapt to each pet’s needs, making sure they get the attention and care they deserve and ensuring I communicate any important information about their pets!

About: I have years of experience working with pets in animal shelters, and I also have my vet assistant certification. I am skilled at making pets feel safe and happy! I am in between jobs, so I have a ton of time to provide excellent care for your pets! I am available all day Monday-Friday and occasionally on weekends. I do not have a fenced yard but I live on a few acres of land for great walks to keep you dog happy! There are friendly dogs at the house but I have the ability to keep them separate as well if that is necessary. I can crate dogs when needed.

About: Experience volunteering at the local humane society growing up. I’ve cat and dog sat for family and friends. I also have my own pets that I care for! I can offer evenings and weekends to spend with your pups! Right now I work full-time but can offer evenings from 5-8pm and weekends Friday-Sunday! I live in a calm and quiet neighborhood. Very pet friendly in the area and kid friendly. Can go on walks and let outside for potty breaks. Can spend time outside in the yard to run and play!

About: I’ve had my own pets since I was little. I’ve had hamsters, goldfish, frogs, bunnies, hamsters and a dog. I also have a few years experience with taking care of my grandmas cats. I have my own online business so I am very flexible with my schedule! & I can work around your pets schedule and needs 😊 Again I will be able to adjust my work schedule to your pets schedule. I am a very organized person so I will keep everything clean and tidy.
