3. Farra M.
About: I've taken care of just about every kind of pet in my lifetime. I've have found and rehomed strays, fostered, helped family and friends, etc. My "pack" is full of structured chaos, but I am never without love to share. I work full time for the Army, but my office is less than 5 minutes from the house. I go home over lunch usually. I don't typically leave the house much outside of that. Evenings and weekends are usually spent in the backyard. I have a good size fenced in yard with plenty of shade and room to play! They will be socializing with all kinds of animals.
4. Kenzie & Lane M.
“Kenzie and her fiancee, Lane, have watched my 3 dogs for me more times than I can count! They are the most loving couple, and have always given their full attention to my pups. So much so, that my dogs seem sad when I pick them up😂 if you're looking for someone caring, kind, patient, and communicative(i always get tons of updates and pics while im gone! And if i ever have questions, theyve been quick to respond)- look no further! I'll never have anyone else watch my babies 😊”
5. Anne W.
“Anne is amazing! Our anxious dog warmed right up to her. She sent pictures of them playing and cuddling everyday. They are some of the best pictures we have of our pup! Our dog was healthy and happier than she has ever been when we have traveled. Anne was loving and attentive, both to our dog and our home. We could not have found a better caretaker for our pup. We are definitely asking Anne to sit for us every time we travel from here on out!”
6. Laura E.
“Laura is the best! Very caring and she really goes above and beyond.”
7. Ashley O.

8. Caitlin S.
“Caitlin did awesome with our boys who are known to be a bit on the wilder side. She took great care of them and updated us lots! I’ll definitely request she watch them again if we need it.”
9. Brooklynn M.
About: I worked with K9 while in the United States Navy and I have been helping take care of family and friends dogs for just over ten years. I’m reliable and experienced! I am currently not working just recently moved to the area with my husband and daughter. Looking for a side gig to help bring in a little extra money. I try to follow routines best I can. I grew up walking larger dogs such as bloodhounds, mastiffs, boxers, husky’s and many other breeds. Love to burn up as much energy as we can outdoors as long as it’s not too hot or too cold.

11. Miranda C.
