About: I've been caring for dogs since I was about 10 years old, so you could say it's in my blood. Over the years, I've learned so much about their different personalities and needs. One of the most special dogs in my life was my own, who lived to the incredible age of 18. He was a constant companion and taught me so much about loyalty and love. That experience really shaped my approach to dog care, making me extra attentive and dedicated to their well-being. I also have experience with cats and rabbits as well. I usually work my other job in the mornings, but I can be flexible to fit your schedule. Let me know what times work best for you, and I'll do my best to accommodate! Whether I'm caring for pets in my home or in a client's home, I always make sure they have a safe, comfortable, and fun environment. I follow their regular feeding and exercise routines, and I'm always attentive to their individual needs and quirks. Lots of playtime, cuddles, and positive reinforcement are definitely part of the deal!

About: Hello, my name is Ashley. Over the past several years I have owned many dogs of all shapes, sizes, medical conditions and personalities. I have owned two pugs, Stanley and Missy, a Rottweiler, Kalia and an English Mastiff, Roxy. I currently have the cutest wigglebutts on the planet. I have an olde English bulldogge named Willow Jean and a doberman named Malik. They are very friendly with other dogs and love to play. I do have a full time job, but have some flexibility that I am able to assist other dog parents from time to time. I understand what it's like being out of town, working late or just needing someone you can trust to care for your animal when you are not able to. Looking forward to meeting your fur baby! I'm currently working, but have flexibility with my schedule. I can drop in, do walks or even house sit your fur baby at my own home. My dogs are my babies. My children always say the dogs are my favorite kids 😁. I will care for your animals as I would my own, with love and kindness.

About: I’ve had the pleasure of taking care of various kinds of animals, dogs and cats . I Will respect your love for your animal that you’ve trusted me with. I am Retired, enjoy walking so why not walk a dog? I’m very responsible, and if I say I’ll be there to care for your dog, I will be there. I live in a great neighbourhood with sidewalks. I have no problem taking a dog on a leash to a nearby park. I ALWAYS pick up after dog.

About: I've been house and pet sitting since I was a teenager, over 20 years! I've had my own dogs for 12 years and would be lost without our Sparrow, she completes my family! She and I are an easy going, laid back family with a large yard and lots of outside time. I work from home and take frequent breaks for walks outside. I use gates to keep dog friends in safe places, crates are optional and of Sparrow's choosing to use. Sparrow is a 3 year old golden doodle that loves other dogs and is chill and friendly. She is the neighborhood mascot and often stops on her walks to see her favorite kids on the block. I am available for both daytime care and overnight care, as well as coming to your home for walks and check ins while you are away. If you have any questions, please feel free to message me! My first task of the day is always a long walk with my dog! We take 2-3 walks per day and include lots of ball or tag time. Because my job is flexible, I can arrange my day to suit caring for others' pets as well. I use child safety gates to provide safe spaces for dogs throughout the house. There are several comfy places around the house for resting and a big back yard for playing, which we do every night. I have a crate available too, if needed.

“Connie is amazing! She made sure to keep me updated and send pictures while I was at work. She is easy to work with and helps accommodate your needs. I work long hours and I felt comfortable leaving my dog with her. She worked on breaking bad habits and teaching my dog how to walk nicely on a leash. Will definitely be contacting her again for future needs.”


“Darlene and her husband took such good care of my dog!! Their house is very clean and they have a very nice backyard! It’s such a peaceful environment and my dog enjoyed their company!!”


About: I grew up with dogs, and have had a dog most of adult life. I love spending time at the dog park close to my house. I am available all through the week. Available day or night. Rain or shine. Same day availability (in most cases) I'd love to spend some time with your best friend. I have a nice size 2 bedroom apartment, one bedroom is the dogs play room. I have a dog park close to my place, and have a lot of space around the apartment for walks.

“It was our first time leaving our boy with someone other than family and they made us feel really comfortable. We knew when we left he was in good hands. They sent us pics/videos showing how comfortable he was. Definitely will go back. Thank you!”


“I had a great experience leaving Charlie in Jenny's care for the morning! He came home relaxed and happy, which is always a good sign. It’s clear he was well taken care of and showed signs that he felt comfortable when I picked him up. I’m already planning to rebook and board him for several days later this month. Highly recommend!”


About: I've been professionally training dogs for almost 5 years and own Classic Canine Training LLC; after I worked for reputable training companies I decided to open my own. I personally network all over the US and even in Europe with other trainers. I have 10 acres of free open land with a pond to take dogs on walks (great for reactive dogs and mental stimulation). I have two Belgian malinois who I strive for their needs to be met daily. From mental stimulation to physical stimulation while giving them a “job”. My youngest is 2 years old and does many sports (PSA, dock diving, and fast cat), and my oldest is 9, he’s a retired military explosives K9 who served on the boarder of Jordan up until 7 years old. Both the sweetest dogs you’ll ever meet. All of my dogs have off leash obedience training that is kept up with. I have a background in dog training, boarding, and daycare; from puppies all the way to seniors. I strive for knowledge with dogs as there’s always new information evolving everyday of how we can create the best relationship with our furry companions. I’m very passionate about dogs, teaching others about dogs from genetics and breeds to how they think. My business hours run from 6am-8pm, however I’m home each day. If I have a 1 on 1 client, a drop in visit, or a client for dog walking, I’m away from the house for an hour. I stagger my schedule so I can check up on the dogs frequently. I have an open floor plan in the house, this works great for senior dogs, or even fast energetic dogs. There's 10 acres of cleared land, a pond with a dock. Since the land isn't fenced in, all dogs must be leashed with a properly fitted collar when going outside, a harness, or a slip lead. I plan on putting a fenced in area with a new patio within the next few months. However, a good peaceful walk with all the smells is always more for the dogs than a fenced in area with limited access. Reactive dogs and fearful dogs are welcome as I have years of experience with them, and training them to grow confidence and obedience. I also have experience with special need's animals. Loud dogs are welcome too, dogs can bark and howl, doesn't bother me, I don’t have a noise ordinance either. If your dog(s) show healthy body language and do well with other dogs, my two malinois are gentle beings and always love a play mate. Minka especially, she goes at the other dog's pace and reads their body language. I do ask that you leave your vet information with me and emergency vet information as well for an emergency contact if ever need be. I also do ask for a second choice of contact incase the primary owner is unable to be reached. All dogs must be up to date on vaccines and bordetella for boarding and daycare.

About: I have had 2 dogs of my own since I was 12. I have dog sat many dogs for friends and others for at least 6 years. I also went to school for Zoo and Wildlife Biology I am currently not working in the summer. My schedule will change once school starts back up. However, I can still be flexible with my time. I would love to make it work for you and your pet! I have a friendly doodle mix that loves to play with other dogs. I have a big yard to let your dog play while tied on a leash. I also have a crate if needed as well as a baby gate.

“Faith was an excellent first-time sitter for my dog. From the moment we arrived, she made us feel welcome and comfortable. My dog enjoyed her day at her house and came back happy and well-cared for. I highly recommend Faith for her professionalism and genuine love for animals!”
