About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have experience caring for dogs, cats, rabbits, and horses. In 2023, I completed the Animal Behavior College Basic Dog Obedience Program along with additional certificate courses in Training Shelter Dogs, Doggie Daycare, and Teaching Private Lessons. I’m also Pet CPR certified. Beyond my education, I’ve worked professionally with dogs in a daycare environment where I gained hands-on experience with dogs of all ages, breeds, sizes, and personalities. I understand canine body language, recognize signs of stress or overstimulation, and always prioritize safety and positive experiences. Whether your dog is energetic, shy, young, or a senior, I take the time to get to know their individual needs. I treat every dog with patience, kindness, and the same level of care I’d want for my own pet. Caring for animals is already a big part of my life. I currently work professionally with dogs and genuinely enjoy spending my time with them. I’m available for dog walking on Fridays and weekends, and I make it a priority to give each dog my full attention during our time together. I understand that consistency is important, so I strive to be dependable, communicate with owners, and provide updates after each walk so you know your pup is happy and well cared for. Safety is always my top priority, whether I’m caring for my own pets or yours. I treat every dog as if they were a member of my own family, taking the time to get to know their personality, comfort level, and individual needs. Before every walk, I’ll make sure collars, harnesses, and leashes are properly fitted and secure. I stay aware of our surroundings, avoid potentially unsafe situations whenever possible, and always keep dogs safely leashed. I also pay close attention to each dog’s body language and behavior so I can recognize signs of stress, fear, fatigue, or overstimulation and adjust our walk accordingly. I’ll always follow your care instructions, including preferred walking routes, treats, medications (if applicable), and any training cues you’d like reinforced. After each visit, I’ll provide an update with photos so you can feel confident knowing your dog was safe, happy, and well cared for. My goal is to provide every dog with a fun, enriching, and safe experience while giving you peace of mind that they’re being cared for with patience, kindness, and professionalism.

“Super!!”

“Kiara was amazing. Our dog (Millie) was extremely happy. She went on car rides, and even had doggie play dates. Kiara is very responsive and kept us updated the whole time. We will absolutely use Kiara again.”

“We have an anxious, slow-to-warm-up-to-you dog, and Ellianna was great with him. She took the time and had the patience to win him over. Communication was prompt and her report was thorough. We have already booked her for another stay!”

About: I grew up on a farm with horses, pigs, sheep, cows, a dog and a cat. I particpated at a young age taking care of them (feeding, brushing, removing manure). Throughout my life I have had personal pets as well as helped care for pets of family and friends. I currently work full-time remotely M-F 8:00am-5:00pm. I also have a 9 year old son. I am typically available weekday evenings after work and weekends. I have a runner that extends from the side entrance of my house to my detached garage with a partially fenced backyard. I live in a safe neighborhood and have great neighbors. Three of my neighbors on my street work for the police department.

About: I have cared for the dogs and cats of family members, friends and coworkers when needed, for years. I personally have a dog and cat. My dog is a sweet boy but he is reactive to other dogs. Before him I had never worked with/known a dog that has reactive tendencies. I have learned a lot over the last 7-8 years about reactivity, especially dogs being reactive towards other dogs. I have cared for as many as three dogs and three cats at a time including puppies and senior dogs. I currently work full time but have developed a good schedule for when I do check in/drop ins for those I pet sit for. If someone is out of town and leaving their pets at home for a check in/drop-in schedule I would typically drop in, in the morning before work, around lunch time, around dinner time and again before bed if the owner requests. I have recently cared for three dogs and a cat for almost two weeks for a coworker and this schedule worked well. I will adhere to any instructions that a pet owner provides. I will make sure that the animals are well cared for and report any concerns I may have for the pets while caring for them. Whether it is a drop in to let a dog out to go to the bathroom at lunch time, walking a dog, feeding the pets, etc.

“Amber was very communicative with us and took great care of our cat! We forgot to set up our automatic feeder and Amber set it up for us when she checked in.”

About: I’ve taken care of both cats and dogs for my whole life from childhood on. Taking care of family pets, as well as now pet sitting for friends when they go away or stopping in to let the animals out through the day for bathroom breaks or feeds. I am currently working part-time with 3-4 free days during the week, during which I spend most of it working/playing with my dog. I have a fenced in area for dogs to play and have a crate if needed. A friendly Australian shepherd lives with me and can provide company if wanted.

“Allie was wonderful! Professional, courteous, and a great communicator. She took great care of our 50 lb lab, gave her lots of cuddles, and took some of the best photos. We would definitely hire her again!”

About: I have been taking care of dogs for 3 years now, starting with helping out with my family. But now I have been pet sitting for friends and family, and around 2 years I started working at a dog daycare, helping them out there! As a current nursing student, I am willing to work on a schedule that works for you and your pup! I am able to help anytime before or after my classes, and even in between! When it comes to safety, I am willing to do whatever is most comfortable for you and your pup. Whether this is crating your pup during the day or letting them out of leash outside!

“This couple made a stressful week so much better. We did not have to worry about our dog while our daughter was born. We will definitely use them in the future. Thank you both.”

“I needed help with my very scared/reactive dog and Britney did an amazing job getting to know him and helping him feel comfortable over a number of visits. She clearly knows dogs!”

“Lily was great with my two cats and followed a very long set of directions wonderully! Both have daily medications that she was able to give with no problems, and her daily photos and notes let me know how they were doing. She's easy to talk to and very kind, which my cats both picked up on quickly. They aren't usually friendly with newcomers, but they let her pet and play with them almost immediately. Thanks, Lily!”

About: I've always had dogs or cats as pets. I currently have 2 dogs now. Dashy is 16 year old Dashhound who was severely neglected and abandoned at 13 and Beau now 8 is a Rat Terrier mix adopted as a puppy. Both boys are very friendly, happy, healthy and quite spoiled. I also have my Pet CPR & First Aid cert from Red Cross as well as some behavioral training. I work best senior, handicapped and terminally ill pets though the fee may change depending of medical need. I'm retired and I have full daily availability from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. and some night time availability as well as overnights. I have a fenced/blocked back yard, another fur baby and plenty of room for them to play. Grass, gazebo and lawn Charis for them! The inside is spacious and safe for dogs and dog friendly cats.

“Toni is a true animal lover! She sent me dozens of photos and truly spoiled my cat. While away I had no worries over quality of care and was able to relax on vacation knowing my cat was loved. Thank you Toni!!!”

Christine C.

About: Hello! I love all pets (furry, feathered and scaled) and have extensive experience providing animal care. Growing up we had fish, dogs, turtles, snakes, guinea pigs and a cat. My mother also made sure we gave back to our community volunteering at animal shelters where I helped post-op kittens and puppies heal in comfort. Currently I am the number one pet sitter all of my friends call when they leave town and was told that if I was smart, I would sign up for Rover to expand my care network. I am currently working on a PhD in Biomedical Science and make my own schedule. With notice I can fit potty walks into my daily routine, evening check ins or even overnight visits to care for your furry friends. When it comes to animals I try my best to work with compassion, patience and lots of love. I just recently adopted a new fur baby named Grim from the Pixel fund, a non-profit organization that rescues animals from kill shelters. I have him harness trained so we can read and play outside!
