“Excellent communication and very thorough during first meeting - even remembered to ask about medications (good thing since I neglected to mention it). Happy cat & guinea pig upon our return. Will definitely book again!”

“Michelle is simply just lovely. Prompt (early actually). Caring. Very sweet w our pets and attentive to our endless direction with our special needs dog as well as our cats. All of our animals are rescues from abusive situations so we are protective. She got that immediately without having to say a word.”

“Dakota took great care of my yellow lab while I was away for the day. Communication with her was so easy, and when I checked my phone in the afternoon I really appreciated all the pictures and detailed updates from her drop-in visit. After our meet and greet, I felt so comfortable seeing how she interacted with our dog, and knew he'd be in good hands.”
“Siri was wonderful! She kept us well informed as needed and was a great help. She was able to care for our shy cats and ensure medication was given. Definitely recommend!”
About: Lifelong owner of dogs, I enjoy walking playing, and exercising dogs. I am a current owner of a sweet, young, and energetic German Shepherd, who is very well behaved. I am a recent early retiree and looking for something fun to do during the weekdays, I am very responsible and would love to work with your dog. I have a fenced in backyard, our dog has a GPS tracker, she’s microchipped, and is up to date on all vaccinations. I would expect the dog that would need to be taken care of to be up to date on all vaccinations, as well.
“i made a mistake and forgot to leave the key to my house - Taylor problem solved and did all she could to figure it out with me - she also picked up treats for manuel 10/10”
About: Hello! I've been an animal lover my entire life. My dog, Zeke and I had a companion kind of relationship, built on mutual respect and happiness; it's something I wouldn't have traded for the world. He sadly passed away in October after 12 years together, so it would be an understatement to say I'm more than happy to pour extra love to your pup. ___________________________________________________________________________ This is a new offering as of August 2024. I have discovered that adventures are my ideal experiences and would like to advertise as such! Mountain hikes, kayak paddles (>15 pounds), and bike cart rides for the senior pups are my favorites, but I am open to other ideas/training requests! Paddleboarding, swimming lessons...the possibilities are endless. One hour minimum is preferred; gas and travel time to the adventure site are included. I have many mountains, lakes and trails on my list, so I do not see it as fair to charge you for that time! You will only be charged for adventure time. Depending on your pup(s) comfortability in the car, we may travel up to 45 minutes. You and I will decide together on location details, and this app will track where your pup(s) and I are at all times. Wilderness First Aid trained, canine safety versed, ample water provided, and pups will always be kept safely on the leash. Your pup will return home satisfied and tired! ____________________________________________________________________________ For a NORMAL NEIGHBORHOOD WALK, please book a drop-in visit and message to remind me that you would like a walk. Availability for walks and drop-ins will change after Labor Day. Unavailable most weekdays 12-3:30 I am a caretaker by nature, and have been a teacher for the past 4years, a live in nanny before that and most recently a grade school teacher. I'm going back to school to get my licensure. Honestly, care taking and fresh air gives me clarity of mind, and the chance to peel away from the screen helps process all the new information! I am trying to practice running again too, if your canine would like to train with me. Familiar with many local trails and parks. All weather is good weather! Experience with dogs with seizures and giving various medications. Feline friend as well. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry friends ! I am working at a school 12-3:30, and going to school online. I recently moved my senior dog up here, but I am missing all the adventures we used to go on! Caring for your pets gives me the chance to go where he can't. I do not offer boarding. When I am in your home, I try to leave it better than I found it. I have spent a fair amount of time farming and gardening, so plants will be well cared for if asked.

“I would totally recommend Thomas to be responsible with your pet and your home when you are gone for an extended period and need someone to check in and let your dog out.I knew Thomas from seeing him in town with his Ibizan hound along with other dogs in his care. He was great at handling the dogs on a busy street and always chatting with people who stop to ask about his unusual dog. Thomas followed the many instructions about food and medication I left everywhere and sent videos and photos of a happy dog. My dog did not seem particularly excited when I came home which means he was well exercised and not anxious that I had been gone.”

Kimberly P.
“Kimberly is, first and foremost, a deeply kind person. She has a soothingly calm energy that I find puts both people and pets at ease very quickly. She is really bright...intuitive, thoughtful and very respectful. She loves being active outside in nature in her free time, especially hiking with her own dog Zeek. If you are looking for a pet service professional who will take true care of your animals, who will keep them safe, and who will be focused and present, look no further. As an animal lover myself, I recognize how important it is to find someone who you can trust and as someone who has known Kimberly for almost 20 years, I can tell you most assuredly that she will be that person for your pet!”
