About: I have 4 years of work experience with pets ranging from indoor to outdoor, young to old, big to small, and healthy to sick. I offer attention to detail and am not afraid to ask questions to be extra cautious with your furry friends' needs! I am able to trim nails, bathe, and administer medications, as well. I work an 8 hour 8:30a-4:30p shift on weekdays, so I am more than happy to check on pets before, after, and overnight as needed! I have weekend availability. I believe in the importance of following a client's wishes as they know their pet best and following instructions to the best of my ability. I am happy to handle the most fun and most yucky parts of pet care including cleaning up messes, picking up poop, etc.

Ashlyn came in so clutch helping me out last minute with taking care of my puppy, Stella. She communicated very well, was so positive even though i know my puppy is teething and kind of a pain! And she showed up and left when she said she would. Very much appreciate her consciousness and kindness when caring for my baby!! I would trust her in my home again anytime

Brendle was delightful and our 2 dogs had the best time with her. She hung out with them for 5 hours while we went to watch our son’s championship game. Brendle took them on a 2 mile hike, played ball at the park, and they were thoroughly and happily exhausted at the end of her stay. I cannot say enough nice things about Brendle! She is a gem!

Selena took care of our pup on short notice and did a great job! She made us feel super comfortable by meeting us/our dog a few times before we left for our trip. She sent photos every day and our usually shy pup warmed up pretty quickly!

Experienced in dog walking, schedules, animal feedings and house sitting. A lil background about me ~ I am a retired elementary teacher switching careers into Counseling/Therapy, starting school this Fall 2026. My partner and I have a sweet labradoodle named Bliss and and a plump elderly cat named Elvira. We have rescued and cared for dogs and 4 plus cats together. I have a huge heart for elderly cats/dogs and those that are shy of personality. Let me know if your animal takes time to warm up! I am patient, compassionate and a natural caretaker at heart. Alternatively, I love the playful and outgoing ones too! I have experience in administering medications also, especially with Elderly or finicky cats as I have cared for many of my own. My schedule is open and flexible at this time. My lifestyle has allowed for me to maintain a pretty open schedule and take work as needed. I also work part time nannying positions, but this should not interfere with scheduling. I will be traveling to your location to care for your animals. Services include: cat sitting, dog sitting, drop ins, dog walking, house sitting and administering medications if needed. Let me know if there is anything else I can do.

About: I grew up in a home that had many different kinds of pets- from pups to kitties, to rabbits & guineas! I love being able to give them the love that I would give my own. I have a golden girl of my own now that is my best friend, and I hope to share that love to your fur babies. I am currently working part-time only, so I have the ability to care for your babies around that schedule and what works best for you! My golden girl can be kept in her own space at home, so that I am able to provide a safe space for yours, if needed. She is free to roam when I am home, and is also very comfortable around other animals.

About: I’ve cared for dogs for years and have experience with different breeds, sizes, and energy levels. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, crate time, and basic grooming. I’m patient, attentive, and I’ll send regular updates so you always know how your pup is doing I have a very randomly organized schedule because I am a travel nurse that works night shift. So I am available most of the time during the day Whether in my home or yours, I focus on safety and structure. I follow your written instructions, keep pets on-leash outside unfenced areas, and make sure doors and gates stay secure. I’m mindful about feeding, treats, and household hazards, and I’m happy to do meet-and-greets for comfort and fit.

Amelia was amazing with our two kitties and flock of chickens! We were nervous going out of the country for a week, leaving care responsibilities to someone that we didn't know, but when we met Amelia we clicked right away and knew that she was perfect! She was very communicative with us while we were away, and gave all of our critters so much love ? She checked in often and sent us pictures to put our mind at ease. We cannot have asked for better care for our furry and feathered loved ones, and will be sure to book Amelia again in the future!

Phenomenal with dogs. One of our dogs is extremely anxious, especially around men, but loved him. Very courteous as well.
