About: I have loved animals my whole life. I’ve had animals around since I was in diapers. I rescue them to this day! I have three rescues in my home and I provide top notch care, just read my reviews. I treat everyone’s pets as my own. I’d be happy to care for your furry friends Anyday!!! I’m a stay at home mother of a two year old boy. I have plenty of free time to take care of my home and animals and your animals too! It would be easier for everyone for me to watch your pets in MY home or do drop ins at your place. I have a separate area for cats. My dogs typically roam upstairs and the cats play downstairs in their own little sanctuary. I like to make sure every one is comfortable <3 I have a large yard for dogs to run around in and a small dog run area that’s fenced in. I’m open to keeping your dogs inside my home that way I can keep a good eye on them but if they want to hang out in the yard that’s fine too. I do enjoy going to the dog park so if that’s okay with YOU then I’m open to that which is right around the corner from my house (lucky me:) I’m very experienced with use of kennels for training too. I have a lot of experience with all animals and that gentle nature they’re attracted to.
About: I’ve always had dogs when it came to growing up. My family thought it was only natural to have them! I grew up living amongst 5 Great Danes. I’ve taken care of dogs of all kinds! I’ve had dogs that weigh almost twice as me, and dogs that can fit into purses. I have over 10 years of experience with reactive dogs, since my pittie is very selective of other dogs. I have over 15 years of experience with puppies and training them as well! I’m currently working full time Monday-Friday. 6:30-2:30. After that, I’m available for the rest of the day to let out, walk, feed, and take care of any pets. On the weekends, I am fully available, all day and all night! I care for my pets like they’re my own babies. We don’t have a fenced in yard, but I have one dog that is off leashed trained, and the other that must be on a leash at all times. Which means we go on walks around the property daily! I have an entire room dedicated to the bunnies, and the cat gets the whole house, along with the dogs.
“Jamie was an absolute lifesaver. We needed a sitter for the day on short notice and she was very accommodating. Very polite and professional. The dogs absolutely loved her! We highly recommend her and will definitely be using her in the future.”
“Abigail was an amazing dog sitter for our little rescue dog. He can be a tricky one with lots of separation anxiety, but Abigail was such a great support and comfort to him. She was very communicative and tried everything she could to make sure he was happy and healthy. She went above and beyond and we are so thankful to have had her as our sitter!”
“Lashay is amazing! She has sat for me a couple time now and takes such great care of my pup! She does a great job reinforcing the house rules and keeping my fur baby on schedule. She is an amazing communicator and I always know what’s up with my pup. Highly recommend.”
About: Hey everyone I'm Ella and I've always had a house hold full of pets. Growing up my parents allowed a wide variety of animals to stay in our home. I love animals so much that I'm going in to a career field that is dedicated solely on the help of marine organisms. I currently live with a dog, cat, bearded dragon, leopard gecko and a ton of fish. So basically I can care for any pet needed. I work part time so I have a ton of free time on my hands. I’m trying to find better ways to spend my time rather than always going out. Hanging with any pet is always so fun and usually a better time then going out to begin with! Each pets different, all come with special likes and dislikes. I usually love to take dogs for walks but some may not be able to walk, and in those situations I like to do mind puzzles. For pet sitting I’d come over to the clients home and spend a few hours with them unless it’s a sleep away care. Pet walks would last min 30 minutes just to give the dogs some fresh air longer than normally done during days.
“We absolutely loved having Maggie dog sit Tilly and Hazel! She was on time and very thorough and kept us updated! We got tons of pictures and that made us so at ease being away from our dogs! She even assisted with meds and some other things! 100% would have Maggie back and would ask her again!”
“This was the first time we had Debbie watch our pets and everything was perfect. She kept in constant communication with us, sent us pictures on a regular basis and took great care of our house. I’m looking forward to having her back!”
“We were away for 8 nights and felt comfortable the entire time because our dogs were in good hands. Chris was a great communicator, followed the schedule, and did a great job taking care of our 2 high energy, sometimes high stress dogs. One of our dogs has significant fear during storms, and Chris did a nice job handling that and providing reassurance.”
About: I have 14 years Veterinary experience with pet care, including medication and fluid administration, light grooming, post op care, and senior care. I know and am able to recognize signs of distress, medical emergencies, and changes in behavior which is vital to any Pet Care Professional providing services for your family member. I make it a point to document and monitor pets thoroughly and keep constant communication for owners peace of mind. Your pet's health, safety and happiness is my top priority and putting your furry family member first I own my own business specifically tailored to providing the best care for your pets, equines, and livestock. I am available 7 days a week and at a minimum try to book out at least a week in advance aside from my weekly clients that i see regularly, however I also work Monday through Friday from 830am-430pm I believe it is important to care for your family member in a stress free environment, and because of that i do not offer services in my home but instead i travel to you and provide services to your family member in their home where they are most comfortable and at ease.
