“Nicole does such a great job with my baby. On days when it’s too hot she still makes sure he goes out and gets playtime and love. I absolutely love that she takes multiple pics to show what they’ve been up to. Pork Chop enjoys her visits so much”

“I cannot recommend Sierra highly enough! My dog, Mickey, ran down the hall to meet her on her second visit. He’s never done that. She obviously had Mickey’s seal of approval immediately. Sierra is conscientious, very communicative, and extremely kind. She has my complete trust and respect, because she treats Mickey as if he were her own. To me that is the absolute best quality in a dog walker! Choosing Sierra as your dog walker is the absolute correct decision! Having Sierra walk your dog will keep you worry free and happy while your pup gets good exercise, has fun and is treated like family 😃”

About: 25 years of experience caring for my own dogs. Friends and neighbors also rely on me to pet sit (includes exercise, play, meals, and meds) I work from home in Church Hill and am able to provide care in the morning, mid day, and evening. I do my best to ensure that they stick to their usual routine. All dogs also get a leashed walk - length and pace depends on their physical condition (older dogs may be more interested in sniffing and strolling while younger pups need to burn more energy). I also provide some playtime inside or outside in a fenced area (if available). Meals and medication are distributed as instructed.

“Maggie is extremely dependable and professional! We appreciate her clear and prompt communication and summaries of her time with our fur baby.”

About: I've been pet-sitting since I was 14 for cats, dogs and reptiles. I've also owned dogs, cats and birds so I'm well aware of how to take care of a multitude of animals. I'm open to watch all types of animals. I'm able to do house visits which would include checking up on your pets, making sure they're fed, spending time with them, and provide enrichment and fun play time. I do live in an apartment so the walks would be done either at nearby parks or walking throughout the neighborhood. If a backyard is available, I will make sure to have play time involving fetch, tug of war, tag, etc. I’m available full time for your pet care needs and I look forward to making friends with your furry ones! I offer dog walking, and in-house sitting/check ups. Pets will be taken cared of based on the owners and pets needs. I wouldn’t want to disrupt their schedule so I will follow their current schedule to make sure they’re comfortable and not cause any confusion.

About: I frequently dogsit for friends and family, and I've had my soul-dog for 5 years! She's a rescue shepherd-husky mix and has taught me SO much about training and caring for a smart, high-energy dog! She's entering her senior years and has slowed down a lot, which means I have more time in my day to care for other pups, whether it's a check-in, walk, or boarding in my home. I have a fenced front and back yard, and with my location in Church Hill, there are countless places to walk and explore. I currently work from home 95% of the time! The other 5% is a mix of working at coffee shops and going in to my work's coworking space, but I'm never away from home for more than 8 hours a day. My days are very flexible and I'm happy to work around you and your pup's schedule! I have a fenced front yard that is grassy and a shady, fenced back patio/yard that pups can run around in. I only take 1 boarding or day-care client at a time, so your dog gets my full attention (alongside my pup!). Your dog must be friendly around other dogs for boarding or day care.

About: I’ve been dog-sitting for about 5 years now. I’ve mainly taken care of small to medium sized dogs but I’m open to looking after larger dogs as well. I am very reliable and have a lot of energy to keep your dog entertained throughout the day. I love going for walks and and going to dog parks if allowed by the owner. I live in an apartment and it’s dog-friend and the apartment has a dog area where they can relieve themselves. I live in a studio apartment but there’s plenty of open space where your pup can lounge around. I’m very attentive of your dogs needs, so I stay on top of taking them out for walks and making sure their water bowl is kept full and following their feeding schedule. Also open to grooming and showering your dog, especially if they are staying overnight with me. If your pup is energetic and loves to play we will be a great match!!

About: I am a huge animal lover with lots of pet care experience! I grew up with pets and have had a few of my own in my adulthood. Sadly, my senior pup, Ruth, just passed away at around 13 years old. I miss her presence and am hoping to fill my extra time with caring for other people’s pets. I am familiar with pet medication administration and senior pet care. I look forward to meeting your fur babies! I am a lawyer with my own business, so I do not work a traditional 9 to 5 and have a flexible schedule. This allows me to provide pet care during the week and on weekends! I am responsible and detail-oriented. Since I have these traits, I will always pay strict attention to your instructions for your pet and be respectful of your home.

About: I have a deep love for all animals! As a pet foster mom, and a mom of 2 cats and high medical needs dog, I feel confident that I can give your fur baby the best care! I am comfortable with puppies, senior dogs, dogs with special needs, cats and larger breed animals. I will treat your baby like my own❤️ As a summer school teacher, I am available for early morning visits, and visits starting at 3 PM! Friday through Sunday I am available at any time. Feel free to message me to confirm times and dates for your furry friends :) I am experienced with handling all temperaments of dogs and cats, and will make sure to follow your directions exactly! Safety and love is my top priority for all animals.

“Thanks for always being there on short notice!”
