About: From rescuing a three-legged friend to hosting large scale dog park events, I have experience caring for pets of all ages and abilities! I am passionate about animals getting exercise and engaging play time. ** I work second shift so I am available through the week when most people are at work! I am free most mornings until 1pm everyday. Tuesdays and Wednesdays I do not work so I have more flexibility on those days I treat pets as an extension of myself! I like to have ample space that is cozy as well as activities to keep myself entertained and happy, I believe every pet is entitled to these same privileges. I cater to individual needs of pets, prioritizing the voice of the owner!

“Ann was super accommodating and understanding when we had last minute holiday plans change. She fit us into her schedule and made sure our boys were well taken care of. Couldn’t have asked for a better person to spend some time on Christmas (for the third year in a row) with our two pups!”


“Alexis was fantastic! She checked in at the times she said she would, and always sent cute pictures of Jett. I will definitely be booking with her again!”


“Danielle was so amazing with our Pittbull babies. They are high energy and she matched them perfectly. She was punctual, gave us detailed updates and lots of pictures. Will definitely be using her again.”
