“April is fantastic! Everything from start to finish was flawless. Her communication is great, she asks the right questions, and took great care of my dogs. My puppy can be a lot and she was great with her. I'll definitely book again!”


“I booked Hannah after my neighbors recommended her services. She took just as much care and attention with my cats as she does with their dog. She took initiative to brush my heavily shedding orange tabby, and even vacuumed after. She also cleaned up some cat barf (sorry Hannah & thank you!). I highly recommend her services. She clearly loves animals and wants to ensure they’re happy and healthy.”


“Chelsea did an awesome job taking care of my little guy. He’s just a puppy and she was sure to feed him and take him out for me. I work full-time and I just need a little help on my longer days and she is awesome. 💗🐾”



“Alyssa was absolutely amazing! From coming over for a meet and greet to get to know my two Frenchies to being very attentive when I was explaining all the different foods and directions to tend to them. She was very professional, on-time + treated our dogs like her own. We will be using Alyssa every time we can.”

About: I truly believe pets have the sweetest souls and can form the best bonds with us, which makes them not just our babies, but our best loyal friends. I have had pets in my home my whole life and I can't imagine it any other way. From snuggles to playing or walking your dog ( if hired for dog walking) I will treat them as if they are my own, with love and attention. I love the many personalities of each fury friend and getting to know each one and connect with them. I am currently working part time during the day but can adjust my schedule. To do drop ins in the early morning, afternoon's and evenings! Feel free to message me so we can work something out! I am not currently offering pet care in my home however I am happy to come to your home for drop in visits and dog walking!

About: I have grown up with family dogs and have always participated in their care. Have 3 family dogs that I currently care for and have experience walking them. Currently available to walk in the late afternoons and evenings on the weekends and evenings only on week days. Only providing dog walking services for now. This is not really applicable to the dog walking services I provide other then the obvious, I always keep dogs leashed for walks and make sure to pick up droppings as well.

About: I’ve taken care of many types of animals growing up from horses to cat and dogs. I’m very confident in walking any dog any size, since in my school we’ve learned to adjust and adapt on animals behavior. I also can do any grooming needed (nails, brush teeth, bathe) if you can’t or too wary. I’ve also have well experience in cats. Ive owned cats since I was 15 so if needed I can also do any grooming needs as well. With senior dogs I know they may be more work than a normal dog but I’m up to the task without a second thought! I’ve had much experience with senior dogs. I understand that having animal comes with time management and that’s where I can help! I am current in vet tech school so I have the weekends available and Friday after 4:30pm. I am also willing to go after school mon-Friday after 4:30pm. For the animals in my house they get treated just like a member of the family! I make sure my cat and dog are always content, I take my dog out on daily walks and ensure my cat gets his daily play time. For the animals of your home they will be treated just the same.

About: I've had many years of dog experience. Working in a dog Inn, I've met dogs of all shapes, sizes and temperaments. From very anxious pups to reactive older dogs, I can garentee your pup will be well loved under my care. I've been doing training for several years, we practice positive reinforcement training in our home. My own pup is special needs, being born with megaesophagus. It is important to me to make sure your pup feels safe and comfortable in my care, and if your pup needs some special attention I will happily help! Im working a part time job, so I will have plenty of time to spend with your fur babies! Any day of the week, no matter of early or late. If your dog was to stay in our home, we have a lovely half an acre yard for them to play in. I have two friendly pups in my home, but I also have two extra rooms. So if your pup wants to be alone and play, my dogs will be put away in their kennels while your pup is around. If your pup needs to be kenneled, that works too! They would have a quiet room to be kenneled in. Making sure your pup is comfortable is our biggest priority, whether it's in my home or yours!

“Amber is awesome! Our second time working with Amber. We had previously worked with her back in October and when a trip after Christmas came up, she was the first person we thought of. She's super awesome about checking on the little ones and making sure all was right with them. The kids and I loved the updates with the photos of our little ones. While we always worry leaving our pets home, we felt good knowing they were in great hands with Amber.”


About: I have taken care of all different types of pets, from farm animals, to house pets you name it I can handle it! I am able to care for any type of pet. I currently have a full time schedule available for your needs Starting in September I will be in a full time will still be looking to care for pets. I have a very large fenced in yard with 3 other dogs. 2 Doodles, and a small mixed breed. Rest assure your pet will be treated with love.


About: I have trained all my dogs from puppies to adults. I have the experience with handicap dogs. I have experience from puppies to senior dogs. I’m in the medical field so I have days off during the week. It works out great so I can do drop in visits/walks through out the day! I would go to client’s homes to do drop in visits and walking. Whichever worked best for the client. Also feed and play if needed.

About: I've taken care of pets since I was about age ten. I see animals as part of the family as my pets have been some of my greatest companions over the years. As an educator, I am home full time for the summer months until early August. Once school begins, I am available late afternoons and evenings. I have two crates, one small for cats and one midsize for dogs. I can crate your dog if needed. I have a small room that they can sleep in to give them privacy. I enjoy walking pets and caring for them daily.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, from growing up with pets (and living on a farm) to caring for friends’ and family’s animals as if they were my own. I’m not just here to feed and walk your pet, I’m here to give them love, attention, and a sense of comfort while you’re away. What sets me apart from other sitters is my attention to detail and how seriously I take the trust you’re placing me in. I understand how nerve-wracking it can be to leave your furry family members in someone else’s hands. That’s what I provide regular updates, adorable photos, and honest communication every step of the way. Whether it’s high-energy playtime, a relaxing stroll, or extra patience with anxious pets—I adjust to your pet’s personality and needs. My goal is to make your time away stress-free for both you and your pet! Pet car fits into my routine perfectly after work and on weekends. I work a typical 8:30 am to 4:30 pm schedule on weekdays, which means I’m available for evening drop-ins, walks, or sittings during the week. My weekends are fully open and flexible, so I can dedicate more time for longer visits or extended care. I love winding down after work with some pet time (mine and yours!) —it’s genuinely one of the best parts of my day! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always treat their space with the same respect I would my own. I follow any specific instructions closely, whether it’s feeding routines, medication schedules, walk preferences, or favorite toys and treat. I make sure your pet feels safe and comfortable by keeping their routine as normal as possible. I also send regular updates and photos, so you always know how things are going. My goal is to provide loving, reliable care they gives both you and your pet peace of mind while you’re apart.

“Casey did an amazing job watching Winston. He is a VERY energetic sheepdoodle and Casey took her time playing with him and was patient with his puppy tendencies. I would highly recommend Casey. Thank you so much!”


About: The care I have for dogs goes above and beyond. Wether it be small dogs, or big dogs, i’m always up for a challenge. I have had experience with both small and bigger dogs. I used to have a pug named Daisy and a bull mastiff named Buddy, just to give notice of the difference in size I have accustomed too. I have since gotten a black female pug named Nova, who will be 7 on July 16. I also have two big breeds, Charlie, who is a german shepard/lab mix, and Daisy, who’s a mutt. I have always had a love for animals, especially dogs, since I was only 6 years old. But then again, what kid hasn’t? Nursing school takes up half of my schedule, so that leaves the other half to love up on my own pups (or even yours!) Owning 3 dogs may seem like a lot of work, but it’s the craziness from it that keeps me sane. Going from owning a lazy, sleepy pug, to an energetic crazed lab, I’ve gotten accustomed to caring for dogs with different needs. I feed my dogs two meals a day, while also maintaining time to make sure they are playing enough to get their energy out. I attempted to crate train my dogs, but at the end of the day, I think they want cuddles more than I do! I can be lenient, but stern when it comes to behavior or needs.

About: I’ve taken care of animals and dogs ever since I was a child from horses, to geese to dogs. I’ve been a dog owner for over 10 years from senior dogs to puppies. I love animals and want to provide their home away from home. I’m a part time nurse. The same care and compassion that I give my patients I will be sure to give your animals.I treat every animal as of their my own and my house is their house. I’m currently employed part time working 1-3 days a week. My hours are flexible and fluctuate leaving valuable time for all pet care needs. My pets and your pets are a priority. I have 2 dogs of my own to keep yours company and have play time. I do not have a fenced in yard however have an acre lot and plenty of area where I may take your fur baby for a walk and potty breaks. I have two children who love dogs as much as I do and can’t wait to love your fur baby like their own. I treat all pets as part of the family and will be loved as such. If my dogs are on the couch yours will be as well!

About: I work at an animal hospital as a kennel attendant who takes care of dogs and cats for boarding and daycare. Everytime I see a dog or cat, my eyes light up. I have three dogs of my own and I love them more than anything. Dogs and cats are like family and deserve to be treated like one. Pet care fits into my daily routine everyday, whether it be at work or at home. My dogs are my everything. They are my children and they live a great life with us. I love all dogs and cats. It's safe to say your pets would be safe with me. I have experience with all sizes and behaviors.

About: Hello! My name is Courtney B. I’m 29 years old and can say I’ve been an animal lover for all those years! I’ve always been surrounded by animals growing up from cats & dogs to birds and lizards! My favorite thing about them all is their unique personalities. I’ve taken care of a countless number of animals and have helped family and friends with theirs when needed! I recently lost my favorite pup in the world and that was the most heartbreaking day ever!!! But I still have my cat to keep me company on the sad days. She is my little snuggle bug. Animals are my passion! I hope I am considered in taking care of your beautiful pups & kitties! I would love nothing more. I am currently working online from home so I have all the time in the world to care for your pets! I am very flexible. I live in a house with a big back yard, whether you need your pet to be taken out on a leash or I also have a doggy tie-out anchor which I can hook your pup up to to enjoy the outside on it’s own with being securely fastened. I have hooked up large breed-dogs to it and have had no problem!

Samantha E.
“Samantha is an amazing animal caregiver. Her and my Pittie Suede were the best of friends before he passed. She was very gentle and patient with him. He was fifteen, she would bathe him and clip his nails and take him on short walks that he could handle throughout the day. She even helped me look into better animal healthcare providers. She’s an amazing person as well as a pets best friend. If I get another dog I’m booking with her hands down.”

As a devoted dog mom, she’s patient, kind, and completely in tune with what dogs need—whether they’re high-energy pups who need a long walk or older dogs who enjoy a slower pace. I’ve seen firsthand how naturally she connects with dogs of all sizes and personalities. Her loving nature makes her someone you can trust completely with your pet. I know she’ll treat your dog like her own—with tons of love, belly rubs, and treats (if allowed of course!)!”
