About: I’ve been walking dogs for over 5 years, working with both paid clients and through volunteer work in my local community. I’ve handled dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities, including high energy pups and slower moving seniors. One of the most meaningful experiences I had was walking an elderly dog regularly until she simply couldn’t go anymore. As her needs changed, I slowed down our routine, made adjustments to keep her comfortable, and always made sure she felt safe and cared for. What sets me apart is my calm, consistent approach. I prefer to work alone, which means your dog gets my full attention no distractions or split focus. I don’t rush through walks or treat them like a quick chore. I notice small details, follow instructions carefully, and adapt to each dog’s pace and personality. If you’re looking for someone reliable, steady, and fully focused on your dog’s well being, I’m the right fit. Pet care is already a regular part of my daily routine. I walk dogs every morning and plan the rest of my day around those responsibilities, because I’m used to starting my day with dog walks, I’m consistent, dependable, and able to take on new clients without disrupting my flow. I also have flexibility in the afternoons and evenings depending on the day, so I can work with different schedules when needed. When I care for pets in their home, I treat the space with respect and follow any instructions exactly as given. Making sure pets are secure before, during, and after walks, checking gates, doors, leashes, and anything else that keeps them safe. I always double check that water bowls are full and that the pet is comfortable before leave. I don't rush through visits or take shortcuts. Whether I'm walking a dog or stopping by for a drop in, I stay focused on the animal and their needs. I understand how important it is to trust Someone with your pet and your home, and I take that responsibility seriously every time.
About: I am comfortable with all types of dogs and I'm confident in my ability to provide them with the care and love each dog needs. It fits easily with my life routine since I have 3 dogs and I care for them by feeding, walking, and giving the attention they need. Whether at my place or a client's, I ensure pets get fed, walked, played with, and live in a clean space, tailored to their specific needs and routines.
“I would highly recommend Kacey!! My dogs loved her, she always updated with pictures and how the dogs were doing at every drop in visit. My dogs would wait for her by the door for her as well since they love being spoiled. I would definitely hire Kacey again for future trips I may have.”
“My cats were in good hands. Apart from the good communication, she will inform you how they are doing and sends photos. Overall excellent service.”
About: I’ve been around cats and dogs my entire life, and caring for them truly brings me so much joy! I’ve always had pets of my own, so I understand just how important it is to find someone you can trust to love and care for your fur babies like family. I’m super responsible, loving, and playful, whether it’s going on long walks, giving belly rubs, or just making sure they feel safe and happy, I put my heart into everything I do. Animals are a huge part of my life, and I treat every pet like they’re my own! I have pretty much a free schedule, and can do weekends and nights as needed! I’ll for sure be available most of the days and times. I treat every home and pet with the same love and care I give my own. I always follow any instructions closely, keep their space clean and cozy, and make sure they feel safe and loved at all times. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or cuddle breaks, I stick to their routine and make sure they’re happy and comfortable. I also keep pet parents updated with pics and messages so they have peace of mind while they’re away!

About: I am a professional dog trainer specializing in Service, therapy and emotional support dogs. I have 25+ years of experience and a true passion for the care and training of dogs. In order to provide the best experience for your pet we offer homestyle boarding, this means that we try to offer a boarding experience that feels like home. Does your pet sleep in your bed? If yes, they can sleep in a bed with us. Do you cook for your pets? If so, we will make sure to serve them the same meals they eat at home (you provide the food). We will offer a daily routine that is ideal for YOUR pet. Some dogs want to play, while some dogs what relax and nap on the couch.... no matter what their ideal day is we have it covered. I will gladly provide references from current and former clients as well as local rescues. I am a professional dog trainer with the appropriate set-up to do boarding right. Most of the time someone is home with the dogs, on the occasion when that is not possible all dogs are put in a private kennel in our living room. Dogs are only outside for scheduled playtimes when the weather is nice otherwise, they are inside our home. We have outdoor and indoor cameras where needed. Since dogs are in our living room or bedrooms we can always hear them and monitor them for distress. We care for your dogs just like they are our own. Safety and health are always a priority but the most important part of a good boarding experience is making sure that dogs feel as little stress as possible. My knowledge of canine body language and behavior enables me to make the necessary adjustments on a case-by-case basis because the is no single experience that works for every dog.

“I have three poodle/shitzu dogs. Johnathan has been walking my dogs daily since before the pandemic. They wait at our front windows every morning for his arrival and run out with excitement when they see his vehicle. He always notifies me of his arrival time, walks the dogs for about 40 minutes (they are exhausted when they return!) He obviously loves animals and they love him back. he is very dependable!”

“I have known Andreina for many years now, and since the first time I met her, she has shown nothing but love and kindness to me and people around her. She has 2 dogs, and everytime I am with them, it is like they are her children. I mean, if there is a way to get Andreina mad at you (that I know of), you just basically have to go against her dogs. If that isn't a great dog lover, I don't know what is.”

Mia G.
“Finding a trustworthy and caring dog walker can be a challenge, but Mia surpassed all expectations. From day one, she was punctual and reliable, always arriving right on time for our scheduled walks. What impressed me most was her genuine love for dogs – it's evident in every interaction she has with them. I have security cameras at home and could see firsthand how she engaged with my pets. She didn't just walk them; she stayed and played, ensuring they had a great time and were well-exercised. Mia is not just a walker; she's a compassionate caregiver who treats each dog as if they were her own. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will go above and beyond to ensure your pets are happy, healthy, and loved."”
