About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. I used to assist my mom in breeding and have been pet sitting for family and friends for many years. I currently have a bulldog of my own and a leopard gecko. I work full time but I have my own dog so I can easily make sure our furry friends are well taken care of and looked after when your away! I can easily follow whatever your furry friends schedule is, whether it’s putting them in a crate to keep them safe and secure or making sure they are safe roaming through the house while your away!

About: Whether it’s daily walks, drop-in visits, or overnight care, I treat every pet like they’re my own. I understand that every animal has a unique personality, and I take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away. From energetic dogs who love adventure to cats who prefer a quiet companion, I’m happy to adapt to their needs. My goal is simple: give your pets the attention, care, and peace of mind they deserve while you’re gone. I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available for morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend bookings. Because pet care is one of my primary focuses, I’m able to provide reliable communication, consistent care, and accommodate many last-minute requests when needed. Whether your pet needs a quick drop-in, a long walk, or extended care, I strive to be available when you need me most. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision. I treat every animal with patience, kindness, and respect, and I always strive to create a safe, comfortable environment where they can feel at ease. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs, routines, and personality, and I’ll keep you updated throughout my time with them so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. Whether it’s a walk around the neighborhood, a drop-in visit, or overnight care, your pet’s safety, happiness, and well-being will always be my top priorities.

About: Since the age of 12, I have taken care of both dogs and cats! I love animals and do not discriminate against breed or age. I want your pet(s) to feel comfortable and at peace when you are away from them. My experience ranges from overnight sitting, day sitting, bathing, feedings, bathroom breaks, administering medications, and quick check-in's. My goal is to make your pets feel loved, well taken care of, and happy while in my care. I work a full time job, Monday-Friday, from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. I typically only work 1 day in office and the other four at home. I am able to bring my computer and do my work outside of my office and home location. When I am in the office, there are opportunities for me to stop by and let your animals use the bathroom, eat, or play. In your home, I will make sure to follow the routine that best fits your pet. Whether it is adhering to a specific diet, giving them medicine, following a bathroom schedule, etc., I want to make your time away from them as easy as possible. I will care for your pets like they are my own and always keep open communication throughout my time with them.

About: If I could pick one thing that seperates me from other walkers/sitters, it would be that I genuinely have a strong passion and connection to animals. I know all the DO'S and DON'TS when it comes to taking care of a pet. I have a dog of my own and I love and care for him like he's my child. I know not to give him chocolate, grapes, raisins and to keep him away from hazards like antifreeze, oil spills, dead animals, trash, poisons and other dogs feces. I'm also very aware when it comes to the details of an animals behavior and partake in fast acting solutions when it comes to avoiding conflict between them. I could say with a full heart that your pet would be comfortable, feel loved and safe under my care. :) I currently am available anytime for drop-ins and/or walks M-F and have full availability on weekends unless I have otherwise marked "not available" on my availability calender. :) At this moment, I am not currently available for overnight house/pet sitting, but I'm here for the rest! I normally take the pet/pets outside to go potty first thing, give treats, give attention, give love, feed, distribute supplements/medication if needed, fill water, play with toys, take photos for my client, walk, pick up doggy poo, scoop/change the litter box and clean up any messes that are made while the client is away.

Willing and able to assist clients with medication administration to pets on a strict schedule. Patience and consistency is key to quality pet care.

About: Hey guys! We're so glad you're here. (More about Paige) Hello! My background lies mostly in fostering cats throughout my college career. I've fostered over 15 cats throughout the years and learned how to take care of all types of cats; sick, young, old, behavioral difficulties, and all the in-between! Growing up, I lived with big dogs at my dads house and little dogs at my moms, and a few guinea pigs and hamsters thrown in the mix. With an environmental minor, my skills extend past animals and I am also skilled at taking care of any houseplant needs you may have! (More about Kalli) What's up guys! Similarly to Paige, I grew up with large breed dogs, so taking care of canine companions comes naturally to me. I've gained vast amounts of knowledge and experience from working at the Riverdale Animal Shelter as an animal care technician, and am ready for any pups needs. With my background in personal training, I am guaranteed to keep your animals active! With recently losing our pup, we know how difficult it is to leave your pet in anyone hands but your own. We want to take all our love that we previously put into loving our dog and transfer that energy into taking care of yours. With all of our skills combined, we promise to do just that. After recently moving back home our schedule is completely open and we have full availability to take care of as many animals as we can. Animal safety is our top priority! So, it is important for us to not only know the behavior of the animal, but the environment in which they live to build trust and ensure the animals safety at all times.

Dominique was absolutely wonderful with our dog while we were away in Italy for two weeks! From the very beginning, she was incredibly communicative, reliable, and kind. Every day, she would text me to let me know she was on her way, and after each walk she sent pictures and an update, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were across the world. It was so obvious from the pictures and updates how happy and comfortable our dog was with her. She was incredibly patient, loving, and affectionate with him, and it was clear that she genuinely cared about him and enjoyed spending time with him. We couldn’t have asked for someone better to care for him while we were away. Dominique was dependable, thoughtful, and truly wonderful with our dog. We would absolutely recommend her and will definitely be asking her to walk him again!

Highly recommend Rachel! She was extremely flexible with some last minute changes on my end and was communicative early about when she was not available. My timid dog warmed up to her right away and Rachel did amazing at keeping goodbyes short to mininize her separation anxiety. I received plenty of photos/videos/updates and felt confident leaving Summer in her care.
