Avery definitely has a new BFF.”

“Georgette helped us out during a true emergency when we needed someone to care for my in-laws’ cats. I can’t describe how much of a lifesaver she was. Georgette was kind, accommodating, and extremely professional, not to mention highly experienced with animals as a vet tech. It’s clear that she truly cared about the cats and took excellent care of them during an extended period. It was such a comfort to know that they were being so well looked after while dealing with our family emergency. I wish I could give her 10 stars!!”
About: I’ve been around dogs ranging from small-large my whole life. I currently have a German Shepherd at home and I love taking care of her. Other family and friends have trusted me to take care of their pets whenever they go on trips. Even when visiting friends with cats/dogs they warm up to me very quickly even if they’re known to be cold towards new people. I’m currently unemployed and in college, so I have a lot of free time to care for your pets wherever and whenever during my summer and winter breaks! When I’m home from school I typically brush my dog in the morning and will frequently play with her in my backyard. I occasionally take her for car rides and park walks.
“Thank you for always taking such great care of our babies Lisa! You are definitely the best and so caring with our kitties even though they are scaredy cats lol We appreciate you!”
About: I have had several dogs since I was 3 years old.... now in my 40’s 🙈. My entire household (myself, husband, daughter and son) are all pet lovers!! Whether you are traveling for business or recreation, you will have full confidence that I will care for your fur baby as if they are my own. Your pet will be in the best care while you are away. They will get the most exercise as walks will be given frequently. I love having visitors all the time in our home and care for several of our friends dogs when they travel. That is why I’ve decided to extend my home to others that need care of their loved one. Feel free to request to have a meet & greet to see if your pup are comfortable in new surroundings.
About: With years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and ages, I offer patient, attentive care to every pet. I specialize in handling both high-energy dogs and seniors who need a gentler approach. I’m familiar with basic obedience training, making walks fun yet structured, and am attentive to any special needs, whether it’s medication, mobility support, or just extra TLC. My goal is to make each walk a safe, positive experience that leaves pets happy and owners reassured! As a college student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to incorporate pet care throughout the week. I'm available for dog walking on Mondays until 3 pm, all day on Tuesdays and Thursdays, on Wednesdays after 5:30 pm, and on Fridays until 6 pm. This availability ensures I can commit to regular pet care while managing my academic responsibilities. For pet care, I prioritize safety, comfort, and a calm environment. In a client’s home, I make sure pets have access to clean water, secure play areas, and any specific items that keep them comfortable, like their favorite toys or bedding. I follow any special instructions provided and ensure pets feel safe by maintaining a relaxed, friendly approach.
About: I grew up with dogs my whole life (Pomeranian, shih-tzu, Wheaton terrier). They’re the greatest companions! Truth be told, I didn’t know what life without dogs was like until my family and I recently went through the loss of our 10 year-old Wheaton terrier. Personally, I am looking for some dog therapy (the extra $$ is just a nice bonus!). Other than my own dogs, I grew up dog-sitting for neighbors, family, and friends. I love all dogs but all the dogs I’ve owned have been on the smaller side (less than 40 pounds), but I am open and love all my bigger dog friends too! My house has a fenced in backyard (though I prefer taking dogs on walks if they need the extra exercise) for your pets to run free and play. My work schedule is pretty flexible but if I need to step out for a few minutes, there is always someone home as well (my parents, adult siblings). You can trust in me! I am currently working part time and have a lot of availability to care for your pets! I work 2-3x/week in the hospital but I am flexible to fit your needs. My house has a huge fenced backyard for your pets to run free and play. The yard is not a substitute for taking your pets out for a walk though. I am diligent in making your your pets get the exercise and daily walks they need.
About: I’ve been obsessed with dogs ever since I was a kid and channeled that obsession into research for how to understand and care for dogs. After years of begging, I have a three-year old pup of my own and have been entrusted to take care of many friends’ and family’s beloved pets since then. I trained my dog on my own (crate training, prong training, house training, tricks, etc.) and taught my family to also keep him trained.I also worked at a pet resort for a summer where my responsibilities including walking dogs of all backgrounds, cleaning suites, keeping track of dogs’ schedules and routines, and fulfilling any other specifics that parents requested for their babies. I am currently home from college for summer break so I am available to be there for your dogs at any time on any day. I know how to entertain and care for dogs in many environments whether that be apartments, fenced backyards, homes, etc. I am versed in a plethora of activities and enrichment for dogs
