About: I have 1 dog that is a golden retriever. I’ve had pets all my life and love taking care of them. I will walk, pet and give plenty belly rubs as needed. My schedule is pretty flexible. Ask me and I can accommodate. I am free most mornings and evenings. Let me know if you need any adjustments I offer overnight boarding and allow pets to sleep in the bed, on the couch or a crate. (You tell me how you want sleep!)

“Jose has been amazing! It is very comforting to know that my boys are well cared for when I cannot be there. We were able to do a meet and greet before scheduling regular walks. He is punctual, polite, and communicative. I can tell Astor enjoys his walks because every day I have off, like clockwork, he looks for Jose.”

“Amanda was great! She was on time and made sure to update me on my pup. Amanda was easy to work with and helped me out last minute ! Will definitely be booking her again in future (:”

“Sarah is awesome! Our little senior pup, “Tokki,” can get nervous with new people and Sarah was so professional and so kind with her—taking the time to bond and make Tokki feel comfortable before starting the walk. And Sarah kept us updated with photos and was very responsive every step of the way; would highly recommend!”

About: Friends and family members have trusted me to care for their furry loved ones for as long as I can remember. Our furry friends deserve just as much love and care as we do. I work from home three days out of the week, so I am able to care for pets during the day. I am also incredibly available throughout the weekends and each weeknight. I maintain a consistent daily routine for feeding, potty breaks, and playtime to keep pets feeling secure and comfortable. I keep clients updated with photos and updates on their pets' well-being, so they can feel confident that their furry friend is in good hands. I create a pet-friendly environment with plenty of space for pets to roam, play, and relax. I ensure all areas are pet-proofed and free from hazards. Pets receive lots of attention, playtime, and cuddles. I offer enrichment activities like toys and outdoor walks.

About: 30 years of training experience with all sized dogs, currently training one of my own for therapy dog, naturally ability to sync with dogs, and I’m known as a dog whisperer. I can popping or do nightly walks and open availability on the weekends. I’m happy to do multiple stops or walks, whatever is needed for you dog. I currently own three dogs that are all leash trained and allowed to use the back yard freely. My dogs are fed twice daily and let out as much as they need. I have a 4 month old, 1 year old, and 13 year old dog.

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life. We have a 2 year old golden puppy. Who rested as if she’s part of the family. She is soo loved and so spoiled. I also worked at a groomers shop so I have a lot of experience with different dogs. I am currently working part time and attending short days at college four days a week. I have a lot of free time though and especially on my weekends I have a lot of time At home my dog has a perimeter collar so she is free to wander about our yard as she wishes. When I am dog sitting I always have the dog on a leash and I stay outside wi he them the entire time they are outside

About: Growing up I’ve had dogs for as long as I can remember. I’ve cared for dogs for over 18 years I’ve had full responsibility of up to 4 dogs at a time. Most of my experience with with dogs under 20lbs but I’m excited for the opportunity to care for bigger dogs. All of the dogs I’ve had in my life were rescued, and I have dealt with an array of behaviors from separation anxiety to traumatic fear of anything and everyone to anxiety that manifests in aggressive or destructive behavior. I know every pup is different and will need a unique approach in care. Training is something I’m experienced in whether it’s a new pup learning the ropes or just a skill you’re working on with your dog. My two favorite skills I’ve taught my dog Luna is to dance on her hind legs, and to ring a door bell when she has to go potty outside. If you are working on any training with your pup and would like me continue your hard work - just let me know! From sit, stay, place when walking in, or a potty cue, I’m happy to work with you both to stay on course for your goals! Senior care is something I’m very experienced and passionate about. My last little guy, Jo, was around 16 years old, blind, deaf, and had multiple medical conditions with the most challenging being Collapsing Trachea. Administering most medications is something I’m very comfortable doing as my little man had between 5 and 8 medicines he took daily. I’m hyper aware of little shakes and bumps that may seem out of the ordinary due to Jo’s many needs. My knowledge and attention to detail in senior dogs will make sure every pup will get the exercise and gentle care they need while keeping them comfortable no matter the adaptions they may need. A few preventative things I pay attention to with each and every pup in my care are: - Stool: abnormal color or texture can be a sign of stomach or organ distress and can be easy to miss if you aren’t looking for it. - Urine: pet UTI’s are more common than you may think, and also can be easy to miss in early stages. Frequency and color can sometimes be a warning of UTI’s. After a vet misdiagnosed my childhood dog Gigi as being overweight instead of a UTI, she ended up in the hospital with emergency surgery as her organs were shutting down. Since then, simple daily color and frequency monitoring has helped me make sure all my other pets were healthy and comfortable. - Abnormal behavior: lethargy, difference in appetite, and trouble going to the bathroom are all things I pay attention to with each pup I’m spending time with. Increased aggression or constipation can be early signs of illness. Each visit will have feedback on these specific items if they were out of the ordinary to make sure you know exactly how our walk or visit went! These notes can also be helpful in finding patterns of behavioral or medical attention that may be needed on top of peace of mind while you’re away. I also have experience with very anxious dogs. As a child, I had adopted a rescued puppy mill mama and went to great lengths to make sure she progressed, was trained, and slowly but surely began trusting that not all humans are bad. In February 2025 I adopted another rescued puppy mill mama, Olive, and am going through the same patient training and bonding to help her learn that her new life is safe and filled with love. Working from home with flexible hours helps to make me available at almost any time during the week. Making sure pets have daily exercises, mentally stimulating toys and treats, and snuggles daily are top priority. Caring for fur baby’s in your home will be completely adaptable to your their current routine - do they have a specific routine to be followed? Do they only like going in the backyard? Do they need a minimum walk of 20 minutes? Their routine or need is my command. Shoes off in the house, filtered water only in their bowls, rinse and wash the bowls before refilling, nothing is too much for your pet’s comfort and safety.
