Julie took excellent care of our cat while we were away. She was very communicative, sent pictures at each check-in, and spent real time playing with him during her visits. We will absolutely be hiring her again in the future!

We had such a great experience with Mckenzie! From the very beginning, she was communicative, reliable, and clearly loves what she does. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our puppy was in good hands. We also loved the photo updates. We came home to a relaxed, happy puppy, and that says everything. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!

Alex watched my dogs for several days while I was out of town and took fantastic care of them. She played fetch every time she went by, sent several pictures, and let me know anything out of the ordinary. I would highly recommend letting Alex take care of your fur babies!

About: What sets me apart is that I’d love to take your pup on a hike! I adore all breeds and love bully mixes and big dogs! Im currently working part time so I tend to go out for hikes and walks after 4. I always take time to go over commands and tricks and would love to teach your pup a new trick or two At my home we have an electric fence, however after dark we take dogs out on a leash to avoid wildlife. Even with fences or electric fences I always go outside when the dogs out

About: I’ve been around dogs since I was 3 years old and grew up with both dogs and cats in the home. I currently have a rescue dog that I’ve had for 10 years, and helping him work through separation anxiety, shyness, and reactivity has taught me so much about patience, consistency, body language, and building trust with animals. Through working with a professional dog behaviorist, I’ve also learned techniques for building confidence, reinforcing commands, improving leash behavior, and helping dogs feel more comfortable and engaged. While I’m not a trainer, I’m happy to consistently reinforce routines, commands, enrichment activities, and calm leash practices that owners already use with their pets. I’m very attentive to pets’ cues, comfort levels, and safety, and I understand that every animal has a different personality and needs a different approach. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me with their pets over the years because I genuinely care about making animals feel safe, comfortable, loved, and understood. I also enjoy keeping dogs mentally and physically engaged through walks, playtime, sniff mats, enrichment activities, and practicing basic commands when appropriate. My schedule is currently very flexible, which allows me to provide pets with lots of attention, exercise, potty breaks, enrichment, and companionship throughout the day. I’m primarily focused on walks, drop-ins, daycare, and daytime pet care, and I truly enjoy helping pets feel comfortable, engaged, and safe while their owners are away. I understand that every pet has different energy levels and needs, and I’m happy to accommodate routines involving walks, playtime, sniff mats, feeding schedules, medications, crate routines, and basic commands when appropriate. Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my top priority. I pay very close attention to body language, stress cues, energy levels, and overall behavior to help pets feel safe and comfortable in my care. I currently have two potty-trained dogs in the home who are friendly with other dogs. Pets receive lots of supervision, affection, exercise, and engagement throughout the day. I also understand the importance of slow introductions, maintaining routines, and creating a calm environment, especially for shy or anxious pets

I currently assist him on the jobsite when needed but mostly take care of the administrative duties so my schedule is very customizable to your pet care needs I am comfortable working with pets of all ages and in a variety of environments.

About: I have owned and cared for animals my entire life! From dogs to cats to horses, I have both domestic and farm animal experience!

About: I have had dogs my whole life. My job has been to feed them, give them water, clean up after them, take them for walks, and give them medication. I also currently have a senior dog, so I have some experience with them! I have experience with small and big dogs alike. I am a college student who is home for the summer, so I have full availability. During the school year, I will work around my class schedule. Evenings and weekends will be free for sure. We have a fenced yard at home. Still, I watch my dogs just in case. In spring/summer I check for ticks every time they go out. When we go on walks, I am always diligent when we pass another dog. If my dogs aren't up for walks, especially my senior dog, we go out into the backyard and play fetch or run around.

About: Hi everyone - currently work from my house and have a really flexible schedule, my 9 year old dog, Kona, loves playing with other dogs, so I thought this would be a good fit. He is really social and well behaved. I have experience taking him on lots of pack hikes, usually with 2 or more dogs, off leash, but also spend a lot of 1x1 time with him. I have had him since he was a puppy, and have plenty of experience with younger dogs as well. I drive an SUV so I can easily accommodate dogs in my car as well. Hope to meet you and you dog(s) soon! I’m currently working part time and have a very flexible schedule. I work from home and also teach yoga a few times a week. I have an SUV so can transport! I’m also familiar with a lot of amazing hiking and walking spots in the area. I am certified in CPR and also hav extensive experience in dog walking/ handling my own dog and others. I take time to listen, feel and observe the dog in my care. I make sure to meet their needs and also listen to owners needs.

McKenzie was fantastic while I was away on vacation, taking great care of my two cats and dog. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly gave each pet the attention they needed. I came home to happy, well-cared-for animals and total peace of mind. I’d absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her!

Susan was great with my 2 cats. She sent pictures of them every day and spent time visiting and playing with them. She also let me know when there were a couple of other issues at my house and she handled them for me. I would highly recommend her as she is really good with pets. I would definitely book with her again.
