“Was great with handling my dog when she was nervous and had never met Chase. Wouldnt feel more comfortable with anyone else watching my dog after that and I will be using Chase in the future.”


“Charisma was friendly and sent lots of updates! She took some great photos and gave my pets lots of love. I would definitely book again. Thank you!”


“Jayleene was a huge relief for us going on vacation and leaving our cats. She updated us both visits when she got there. We have one cat that doesn’t really care to be social and our other one is the social butterfly. Her son came along and in the photos, he looked so happy and Mikasa was being so sweet with him. Thank you so much. Will definitely be using her services again!”


“For the last year or so, Nikki has been stopping in to take care of my kitties when I leave town. I always feel like I can be present with what I'm doing with out worrying about how my fuzzy friends are. She always let's me know they are doing well. I highly recommend Nikki if you want to travel worry free!”


About: I’ve fostered for the SPCA. I’ve sat for countless friends, family and colleagues. I have an undeniable connection with nearly all animals that I encounter. I’m currently a stay at home mom for my 11 year old son. Also, having 2 adult daughters, 1 of which is currently in college and the other just got married last year and is starting a family of her own. I have a VERY large fully fenced in backyard that is ideal for dogs of all ages and breeds. I allow them full access to roam freely inside or outside by use of the doggie door. If I have dogs from different families I have 3 separate fully furnished and doggie friendly “guest rooms” that allow for space and privacy if needed.

About: Hi! I’m Morgan, full-time dog trainer, groomer, and owner of Yappy Hour Obedience Training and Yappy Hour Grooming. With over a decade of hands-on experience, I specialize in working with dogs of all breeds, ages, and personalities—from chill couch potatoes to high-energy wildcards. This isn’t just a job for me—it’s my full-time career and lifelong passion. Whether your dog needs structured walks, reliable care while you’re away, or just someone to make sure they’re not hosting a one-dog rave in your living room, I provide professional, personalized support. My training background means I notice the little things: stress signals, energy shifts, body language—your dog is in good hands, not just good company. I treat every dog like family—but without the weird uncle vibes—and I’ll always keep you updated so you know how your pup is doing. If your dog had thumbs, they’d have already booked me. Probably added a tip, too. Dog training is my full-time career, and I structure my schedule around my clients to make the process as smooth and accessible as possible. Whether it’s early mornings, evenings, or weekends, I stay flexible to meet the needs of busy households while still providing consistent, high-quality training. This isn’t a side gig—I do this day in and day out, and I’m fully committed to helping both dogs and their owners succeed. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, structured environment where dogs can learn, build confidence, and feel secure. I live on the beach, giving dogs a peaceful setting with plenty of enrichment and fresh air. Trust is the foundation of my work—both with you and your dog—and I use proven, humane methods that focus on clarity, not force. Whether it’s a walk, a stay, or training, your dog is in safe, capable hands every step of the way.

About: I have always loved pets. I have often pet sat for my friends or family. I owned my first dog at 13. I trained her myself as well as groom her myself. I would consider her my baby. Training my own dog has given me a better understanding of them and a greater respect for them. I recently adopted a new big puppy which has better equipped me for caring for dog's with various personalities since she required much different training than my older little dog. I enjoy getting to know pets with different personalities and loving on them. If you trust me with your pet, I will treat him/her as my own. Pet sitting works great with my schedule because I am a full time teacher so I have all summer to love on your pet while you are away. I am fully able to stay at your house if need be to pet sit. My roommate takes care of my two fur babies while I am away. Also, I am able to bring your pet to my apartment with my two dogs who love other animals. My apartment is next to a big park and has a huge dog park for exercise. I am flexible with the needs of my clients.

Ziggy’s hobbies include: cuddling, playing outside, riding in the car, the occasional nap, and trying to steal sips of his mom’s coffee. Maverick is a 3 year old multipoo who has more energy than a 2 year old toddler running around! He is wild, fun, energetic, and silly!

I’m self employed, so I make my own schedule, which means I can be avalible when you need me to be. When I am pet sitting, or dropping in to visit your pet, I will typically spend a good amount of time playing with them, and showering them with attention so your presence isn’t as missed. I like to try to snap great photos of them while I’m there to send you.

Gabrielle S.
“I have watched Gabrielle Schlitzkus care for her dog and the dogs of others for the past 7 years. She is kind and patient but she is the leader of the pack. She housebroke her dog, taught her to sit, stay, lay down, play dead, speak, hi-five, dance, and choose what hand a treat is in. Brook is obedient, loving and a pleasure to be around thanks to Gabrielle’s upbringing. Gabrielle also makes sure Brook takes a walk at least two times a day. If the walk turns out to be a little too long, Gabrielle has also been known to carry her home. If you are looking for a dog walker or a dog sitter you will want to contact Gabrielle Schlitzkus.”
