4. Brittany P.

“Super amazing and sweet with my fur babies! She is great with lovings for my dogs while I was gone for 10 days. I highly recommend her!!! She went above and beyond with taking care of them and assisting while my girl was experiencing her first heat cycle and swapping pups out to have equal time outside! I will definitely be booking her again!”




5. Victoria N.

“Victoria was an absolute amazing sitter with our medium size Catahoula Black Mouth Cur. It didn’t bother her at all dealing with a larger pet. I could really tell she cared for him and wasn’t just doing a pet babysitting job. He usually doesn’t eat much when we are away but Victoria had a couple of clever ideas and he was eating and drinking like a happy fella. He likes people and doesn’t like being alone so Victoria’s hour visit twice a day really helped those lonesome times. She would play with him and his toys, take him outside and cuddle with affection to makeup the fact we left him behind. We received reports and pictures twice a day as well as text messages when she had questions about his lack of appetite and her ideas to help. I am very appreciative and thankful for Victoria’s hard caring work with our dog. We will confidently ask again for her services with our dog.”

I have extensive experience working with dogs of all sizes, especially those with special behavioral needs, medical conditions, and boundless energy.

Here's how I manage this both in my home and in my client's homes: >>>> IN MY HOME <<< Safety First: My home is pet-proofed to remove any hazards.

Routine: I maintain a consistent routine for feeding, exercise, and play to help pets feel secure and settled. Large, Fenced Backyard: With a spacious, fenced backyard, pets have ample space to run and play securely. Cleanliness: I keep a clean and hygienic environment to prevent any health issues. Regular cleaning of litter boxes, bowls, and bedding is a must. >>>> IN MY CLIENT'S HOME <<<< Respect and Familiarity: I follow the pet's existing routine and respect their usual spaces and boundaries to minimize stress. Communication: I maintain open communication with pet owners, providing updates and addressing any concerns immediately. Pet-Specific Needs: I adapt my care based on the pet’s unique needs, from administering medications to handling specific dietary requirements. Safety Checks: I ensure the environment is safe, checking for potential hazards and making sure the pet has access to their favorite spots and comfort items. Trust and a loving environment are at the core of my pet care philosophy. Whether in my home or yours, I’m dedicated to creating a safe, loving, and engaging space for your furry (or scaly!) friend. 🐾

About: I’ve lived on a ranch all my life so I have tons of experience with animals. My dad trained horses and dogs, I’ve grown up watching him. When I’m sad my dog brings me joy. Animals have never let me down. I have a part time job on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9-3. I also have school on Mondays and Wednesdays from 8-10:55. I can play with your pups after work on Tuesday and Thursdays after 3 and I can come after school at 10:55. I live on a ranch. One of my dogs live inside and the rest of my animals are all ranch animals. I have tons of different fencing options around my house. One of my dogs are overweight so she is on a diet, I understand what dogs can and can’t have.


19. Mikayla P.
About: My name is Mikayla, I have always been a dog lover and recently got a second dog of just my own! I am a 25 year old college student looking to love on your furry friend while you enjoy a nice vacation or maybe just a solid day at work. I have more experience with bigger doggos but am willing for any size you have! I work from 7:30 am - 4 pm Monday through Friday so I am available anytime after that, weekends all day, and any holidays we have off as well. My dog is a 6 year old mini Australian Shepherd and I just got an 11 week old chocolate lab! I also have had 2 German shepherds in the past. I am willing to dedicate the time and effort into your dog to ensure they get the exercise and potty relief that they need! I can also send picture updates if that calms you because I know it is hard to leave my fur babies. I am able to be with your dogs from 4 pm until 7 am the following day during the week, all day on weekends, and any major holidays I will be off as well. Whether in my home or yours, I am able to send photo or video updates so you know your pet is well and happy. I also have a fenced in privacy fence and my two dogs who love to play!
