About: I am a fur mommy to an amazing little guy we call Charlie Brown! He is wonderful with adults and children alike! We would love to find him some new friends by watching your cute fur babies too! In my house, someone is always home, so your pet would never be alone! We love to go on long walks through the neighborhood and the local park. Our Charlie Brown loves car rides! My husband is great with animals and loves to play with them! We also have a 3 year old girl who is learning to play with our dogs as well and a full of life 6 year old boy who loves animals, so playtime is all the time here! There is never a dull moment, that's for sure! If you aren't comfortable with your pet coming to our house, that's ok too! I can come to you! I'm a trustworthy, respectful, playful dogsitter as well. Transportation is not an issue. I can stay over night or I can just check in from time to time with your little one. It's all up to you! Let me know what you need and we can figure it all out. I am looking forward to hearing from you and to getting to know all of those adorable fur babies!!!! "Ready to spoil, walk, pet and play! With our family, it's always a fun day!!!" I work for myself so my schedule is never an issue! Whatever may be needed, I will make happen. However, written instructions are always helpful! I don't have a fenced yard. However I do have a runner line that your pets can be hooked to outside so they can play as much as they want to without worry!!

“Heather always does a great job with our pup! Due to my ongoing changing schedule, I often reach out to her the night before I am in need of her service. She remains flexible with times and is great with communication!”

About: My love for animals all started when I was eight and took care of a family friend's cats. Since then, I have gained experience with animals of all types and sizes. In addition to our family dog, I adopted a rabbit of my own who was my pride and joy for six years before succumbing to a hereditary health issue. I also have taken horse lessons, and I currently volunteer with a nearby animal shelter as a dog walker and socializer. I am comfortable with pets of all sizes and breeds, and I look forward to offering your pet the best care it can get. I am currently working remotely, so pet care will be sprinkled throughout my daily routine. Because my schedule is spaced out and very flexible, I will be able to visit your pet as many times as needed throughout the day (or even stay at the house while working if asked) to ensure that they are getting the quality care and attention they need. I work with my clients to give both them and their pets the best possible experience. Prior to hire, I am happy (and in fact, prefer) to have a free 15-30 minute consultation to familiarize myself to the pet and discuss any care specifics that the client may have. Because my care is individualized and will conform to the owner's wishes, I love to send pictures and videos throughout the day of the pet's activities and any extra-cute moments. I make it a habit to send short write-ups of the day and the pet's activities that day so that my clients feel as connected as possible to their pets.

“Isa saved my butt doing a last minute walk when my other sitter just didn’t show up. She has always been very responsive and flexible. We appreciate her so much!”

About: For as long as I can remember, animals have always been apart of my life. I have owned a wide variety of animals such as dogs, cats, goats, chickens, and a guinea pig.

I am so excited to continue my pet care journey and I am looking forward to getting to meet more people and pets!! I am a full time student, but spend almost all of my free time with animals. To care for pets at my clients homes, I either stay overnight or return multiple times a day to ensure pets stay safe, healthy, and happy.

About: I began pet sitting as a teen and have been in and out of the pet service industries for over 10 years. I can do training, basic grooming maintenance, walks, play and cuddle time, learning new tricks. Totally specific to your wishes and your pet’s needs! I have experience with boarding being a boarding trainer for the last 3 years with dogs ages 12weeks and potty training to senior care management - from Yorkies to Cane Corsos! I specialize in working with reactive dogs or dogs who need an experienced sitter. I am familiar and professionally trained in the use of tools (ecollars, muzzles, slip-leads, etc.) if that is something your dog requires. I have some experience as a former vet assistant so keeping your babies safe is a top priority and know how to administer dog first aide until the pet can be seen by a vet if any unforeseen circumstances arise. I am familiar with allergies, sensitivities, nutrition and medication management. I have a pretty flexible schedule so please reach out to me with your dates as soon as possible and I can get you on the books. Scheduling is based on a first come first serve basis. I am happy to come to your home so your babies are as comfortable as possible in their own environment while you are away! I would love to take your dogs on adventures and outings upon request at an additional fee depending on the type of outing. Taking them out to parks or on hikes, store visits or swimming if that’s something they enjoy (dogs must have a up-to-date Lepto vaccine for swims) or just out for some playtime in the yard. I am able to crate rest your dog if you so desire and do walks in the neighborhood. I have all my own equipment for long-line enrichment sniff walks. I have professional experience reading dog body language and behavior and will never make them interact with other dogs if they are not comfortable with it, I’m happy to advocate for their personal space. Due to liability concerns unknowing the temperament of strange dogs, I will not take your dogs to “dog parks.”
