About: I’ve loved animals my whole life and have owned pets for a large portion of it. I’m here to help you and your pets feel more comfortable while you’re away! I’m available for drop in visits and occasional home stays. The thing is, I know how I want my kitties to be treated while I’m away and the level of care I expect is pretty high. I want to provide that to you and your pets, so expect lots of pictures, notes about how they’re doing and your home, and anything else you need while you’re away. Feel free to reach out with any questions or if you want to schedule a meet and greet! Looking forward to hearing from you and your pet(s)! I am currently not working full time so I have plenty of time to dedicate to drop ins or pet sitting at your home. I’m not available for boarding. I will take plenty of notes during our meet and greet to ensure I get everything down that needs to be done while you’re away. Anything that goes wrong you’ll immediately get a message from me but usually that won’t happen. Pets will get food, fresh water, cuddles, play time, or anything else you deem necessary during our visits!

About: I'm a vet tech, dog trainer, and have experience in breeding, rescue, and shelter volunteering. I have my own pack of dogs, and am very educated in behavior and how to pair dogs for playtime. I consistently strive to learn more and stay on top of dog news. I am experienced in working with dogs with aggression and reactivity and can handle dogs with serious issues. I can handle puppies, seniors, dogs that need medication or assistance in other ways. I've worked very hard to be able to be adaptable and ready for anything. I own a lot of dogs and that has taught me that you need to be prepared for different temperaments, play styles, tolerance levels, and more. Things run smoothly in my farm because I treat every dog as an individual with their own needs. I have very playful dogs that are fantastic for temperament testing other dogs, and I have dogs that cannot be around other dogs but they still need mental and physical stimulation. I have built my farm to be one that can work for any dog regardless of temperament because that is what you need to be prepared for when owning many dogs. I was in the military and being prepared and adaptable was one of the biggest things I took from my service. I'm a veteran and constantly home! I spend all day playing with my dogs, reading in a giant puppy pile, and cleaning up after the dogs. I have multiple fenced off zones for dogs to play in. If your dog isn't into company, they will have their own 600 square feet fenced area to play, with all the toys their heart desires. If they love playing with other dogs, I will evaluate their temperament and match them with my dogs with similar play styles and they will have 1/4 acre to 1/2 acres zones to play in. They want to swim? I have a seasonal pond! Fetch? I play it all day, I'm a machine! My home is fun, safe, well regulated, and energy burning! Whatever your dog specifically needs is what I will provide. I also have fenced areas with privacy screens so if your dog can't handle seeing other dogs they can still get exercise and fun time.

“Katherine is great! She is quick to respond and takes great photos! Penny seems very happy when I get home after she has been on a walk with Katherine. I would definitely use her again!”
9. Juliana L.
“Juliana did a wonderful job house and dog sitting for us! She watched our two dogs for a week while we were gone and took care of our house. She walked them regularly and kept us informed of their progress. She was very kind to also wash and make the bed before she left so that I didn’t have to! Highly recommend Juliana for anyone looking for a pet/house sitter! She is very reliable and communicative”

About: Each pet has their own personality and style and we adapt to exactly what your pets need and want. If they want cuddles, they get cuddles. If they want space, they get space. It's all about the pets' needs for us. I provide 5 star service and of course, our goal every time is to have both the owners and the pets be happy and at peace! In other words, I provide personalized pet care that is tailored to each pet and owner, because no two pets are the same. Rather than placing your pets in unfamiliar places while you are away, we provide full care and love in your pets own familiar home. Many pet owners have previously found themselves canceling vacations and other travel plans because of the emotional stress put on their pets while they were away. When pet owners were away, they weren’t enjoying themselves because they were worrying about their pet's/pets' care. A loyal in-home pet-sitting service that provides consistent and reliable pet care in the comfort of your own home. Many pet owners have found that in-home pet care is the best choice for themselves and their pets, allowing them to leave guilt free & worry free knowing that their pet family members are loved & cared for. You can now enjoy your business, vacation travel, holidays, & weekend getaways with the knowledge that your pet is happy in his daily routine and safe in her/his home environment where all sights, smells and sounds are familiar. You no longer have to be inconvenienced in having to schedule dropping off or picking up your pet at a boarding facility. And when you return home, you will find that your pets are happy and ready to welcome your return. Your vacation can also be your pet's vacation! Even if you are not leaving home, there may be times where I can provide valuable services. Full workdays, long working hours or illnesses may make it difficult to care for your pet. When those times arise, i am just a phone call away, ready to provide assistance. I will take care of your pets and your home when you can't, giving you peace of mind. Basically a pet-sitting service for your protection and peace of mind.

About: I adore all animals and have always been part of a minimum 3-dog household. I've raised pups from newborn to good-bye and have fostered dogs for many years with my mom as a teenager and continue to do so! Looking forward to share my love for all things dog with yours! I enjoy going to different parks and helping dogs through the agility courses! Playing with mine is my favorite form of stress relief and as a small business owner, stress relief is always needed. I adore playing with high energy dogs as obedience training is something I'm very experienced with, but also love cuddling with low energy or older dogs as well. I hope to always give exactly what the dogs need and ensure they are happy pups who can get that extra love or energy out, as needed! I work from home and own my own business so pet care becomes an easy priority as it is my break from work! My pets are my source of happiness in my home as they are so loving and sweet and I love to give that love back to them :) I am extremely adaptable and can fit to pretty much any environment needed for your pet! Each one is completely different and used to their daily schedules and it is my job to ensure I keep that as normal as possible for them! I have the ability to crate if needed and experience dealing with not so happy pups so becoming someone your babes can trust is something I take pride in! Just let me know what you need and I will ensure to do so or let you know if I cannot!

“Valerie has been an animal lover since she was little. She started riding horses when she was in elementary school. Her love for horses took her to the rodeo scene where she was a champion barrel racer. She was also involved in her high school FFA program. She has always had dogs and loves them like they are her actual children. Just recently, she and her family have recently acquired chickens and goats to raise. Any family would be lucky to have Valerie look after their pets; she will definitely be attentive and make sure nothing happens!”
