About: I have been an independent pet sitter for 17 plus years. I have plenty of experience with cats, dogs and other small critters.

While working in the vet office I learned how to medicate cats as well as how to give subcutaneous fluids.

All animals are fascinating to me and I enjoy learning about the different types of care they all need.

About: I have 3 dogs and 2 cats of my own. I love to play with them, to keep active. I have experience with dog sitting for some family friends and coworkers in the past. I have experience with giving medication (oral or injection). My schedule is soon going to free up even more, however I'm fairly flexible now too. Currently I am quite flexible.

“Nora is very responsive. She listened to my instructions and followed through with my pup. I really appreciate her love for her job.”
About: I grew up in a family that always had dogs, ranging from small dogs (like Chihuahuas) to big dogs (like German Wirehairs). As a child, I took on dog training experience through my local 4-H group and pursued that for a large portion of my early education career. Since then, I have always been a lover of dogs and have taken on many responsibilities, not only for my family dogs, but for my roommate’s dogs as well. Any care and love your dog needs, I would be happy to provide it! I’m available for pet care during the week and on weekends from the end of June through early September. Whether you need drop-in visits or overnight home stays, I’m happy to help, just please be sure to book in advance so I can plan accordingly! I kindly ask for at least one day’s notice for cancellations. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry friend! Please note: I do not offer dog care in my own home as I live in an apartment. However, I’m happy to provide in-home care at your residence for both dogs and cats! For dogs, I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention, including regular walks, outdoor playtime (at a nearby dog park or fenced yard), and bathroom breaks every 30–60 minutes based on their needs. I’m also happy to follow any specific instructions you provide to keep your pup happy and comfortable. For cats, I offer attentive and respectful care, feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, and affection (if your cat is the cuddly type!). I understand feline behavior and know how to give them the space or snuggles they prefer. Whatever your pet needs, I’m here to help while keeping their routine as stress-free as possible!
“April is the BEST!!!”
About: I’ve had a dogs in my life, since I was a child, and was introduced to cats as I ventured into the collegiate life. As an adult I have cared for dogs primarily, but recently had the opportunity to take care of the sweetest cats! I am fairly patient with pets and like to give them as much space as they like to try to not mess up the routines, but if they are balls of energy and cuddle bugs, I am more than happy to comply! I believe that walks and healthy roaming space is good for a dog’s, development and energy, and respecting a cat to make the first move to ensure respect and comfort to their environment. Hi! I’m a full-time high school interpreter and a lifelong animal lover. During the school year, I spend my days helping students thrive in the classroom — and now that summer’s here, I’m excited to dedicate my time to caring for your pets! I like doing research on the neighborhoods that I’m going into if it’s a new area, and like to understand what you have available, either a dog park, or a fenced backyard, to really understand how to best care for your dog. My dog is a big ball of energy so I have learned a lot of skills to be able to make sure that they stay in their assigned spaces, I do like to keep them with me on my lap as I work, or nearby letting them enjoy a nap.
“Our elderly dogs have special needs, but Karen sent us more pictures than expected showing how well they were doing, so we wouldn't be worried while we were away. Thanks Karen!”
About: Been caring for animals and loving on them all my life! Have taken care of dogs with seizures and given different kinds of meds to dogs! I’m a ER nurse who works three 12 hr shifts a week and would love to come and visit your pets on my days off! I will not bring any homes into my home. I am good at getting dogs into their crates and keeping an eye on them when outside!
About: I’ve had 3+ years in professional dog training as well as kennel care. I have whelped litters of puppies and am well rounded for any level of dog. I currently train dogs in general obedience and give riding lessons part-time. I do this all from my home so I would be accessible at any time to your pets needs. My farm is over four acres and is surrounded by corn fields. I have two very well trained dogs that help me socialize client dogs. In the evenings I do crate all dogs.
About: I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family pets, working in a pet boarding/daycare facility and currently in Pet Grooming School. I am currently working full time as a dog walker and would love to spend time playing with, exercising your pets, and making sure that they are well cared for. I can assure you I will attend to and care for your dog or cat in the best possible manner. Fences and gates will always be triple checked to ensure no escapes. Leashes will be used if there is no fencing. They will always have water available and fed according to your schedule you have set for them. Pictures and updates are always available throughout the day to ensure the safety of your pet.

Alisha J.
“Alisha took wonderful care of our 6 cats while we were away for almost 3 weeks. She was aware that I’m a nervous pet parent so she took the time to send me pictures and updates on our babies daily. It made me so comfortable knowing that someone who is as caring and thoughtful as she is was there. When we got back the litter boxes were in great shape and the house looked like no one had even been there. We plan to hire her again the next time we take an extended trip!”
Chris F.

Kylee S.
“Kylee has grown up helping care for the family pets including dogs, cats and a guinea pig. She has always loved animals and I was pretty sure at one point she was going to become a vet, however she decided on nursing as her career choice. She didn’t know how she could handle euthanizing animals on a regular basis so decided on caring for others in some of their worsts times. She is extremely responsible and helps manage feeding and medication schedules for our family dog who suffers from seizures. She is very caring and even as a young adult spent countless hours this past summer with 4 new kittens that we added to our family making sure they were getting fed and getting enough attention when they were first away from their mother. She considers our pets as part of our family and includes them on outings as often as possible. She can’t wait to get her own place so she can start rescuing pets and loves to dog sit whenever she gets the chance!”
