“Heather and team were fantastic! They were able to accommodate our last minute needs and also made each check in fully enjoyable for our pup. The detailed communication and updates from each check in was extremely appreciated! Will definitely keep her in mind for any future needs.”

About: I gave been around dogs and cats for 16 years! My neighbors, family members, and friends always relied on me to take wonderful care of their pets! I have a part time job, but if you let me know ahead of time I will not schedule myself to work and be available to take care of your pets. I always let my dog out and walk him, make sure he always have water and food. I love to walk dogs and make sure to watch for other pets to see if they are friendly or not.
About: I grew up with cats, dogs, reptiles, and rodents. I lived on a farm for years with cows, chickens, turkeys, and quail! Big or small, scaley or fluffy, I love all animals and will give them the respect and care they need. 150lb newfy who wants head pats and to drool on me? Absolutely! 6lb 20 year old cat who wants to yell at me and avoid eye contact? Say less. I've dealt with epileptic dogs, bladder stones in cats, and even beakless chickens. I'm up for any challenge! As someone lucky enough to work from home, I can position my job around your pet schedule. Weather I bring my laptop and snuggle up with your pup for the afternoon, take lunch and take a walk with your pooch, or stop in in the evening after my shift to give your cat head kisses. I'm flexible and willing to work with you. Whatever your pets need, I'm your gal. I had 6 dogs growing up and like to think I know how to read them. Your pets safety and your trust in me are my top priority. As an overbearing cat mom, I know just how important your pets are to your family.

“Marián has been so great with Charlie. She is timely, sends updates, and makes sure everything is the way it was left. I appreciate her services and will be using her again! 10/10 experience!”

About: I love all kinds of pets. Most of my experience includes taking care of senior pets who require extra assistance; however, I am open to all ages. I am currently a college student, & I am available early mornings & after 2pm. I can stop by to feed your fur baby & even keep them company until you’re back home. I am currently unable to board pets at my home, but I can take care of them in yours. I understand pets have their routine with you, so I am willing to work with their routine to make things feel normal as possible while you’re gone.
About: Hi! I’m a dependable dog lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and energy levels. I understand that every dog has their own personality and routine, and I make it a priority to keep them comfortable, safe, and happy while you’re away. I have experience with puppies, adult dogs, and senior dogs, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, crate routines, basic medication administration, and giving extra patience and attention to dogs with specific needs. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or just a calm companion, I provide loving and reliable care tailored to their routine. I treat every dog like family and work hard to give pet parents peace of mind knowing their pup is in good hands. I’m currently a school teacher. So I will be available most days in the summer to care for your pet. This includes spending time with them, walking them, etc. I have 15 acres that your pup and I can explore. Mostly wooded, and does have a small creek. Your pup will get the opportunity to relax and enjoy the ability to either Lounge in the grass in the backyard or go for a walk through the woods.

I will provide compassionate and attentive care and understanding to your pets needs and ensure a safe environment through respect and patience to all pets.
“Megan is amazing. I set her up to care for my mom’s dogs after she had surgery for a broken ankle and was non-weight bearing. Megan was available last second, went to the house 4 times a day like clockwork, and took such wonderful, loving care of Louis and Brie. And was so very sweet to my mom. I had such peace of mind knowing that the dogs were cared for and safe and my mom could rest and start to heal without worry for them. If you are in need of pet sitting services in her area, PLEASE contact Megan. She’s a godsend and will not disappoint. I would hire her again in a second, and as I’m a veterinarian, I’m very picky with my family’s animals and know what great care looks like. Thank you so much, Megan!!”

About: I spent my youth training to be a vet and fostering dogs. I learned a lot at vet school, namely that I couldn't ever deliver the final act of compassion. So, I turned my attention to my true passion - caring for dogs! I have been dog sitting for over 15 years and I love it. Every new dog that I meet reminds me how much I love dogs. I am flexible to the needs of every dog I care for and will make their experience with me as similar to their home life as possible. I have two dogs of my own, but they LOVE meeting new dogs to play with. If your dog is not as keen to new friendships, I can separate them all with ease. I have only one hard line, I need to meet you and your dog before the stay. I have learned that it is the best way to ensure your dog's comfort in their stay. I did not always adhere to this and I have seen some very stressed out fur babies. I want your fur pups happy and healthy as much as you do! Thank you for your consideration. I work from home so, I will be with your dogs all day. If we have any grocery trips or daycare drop offs, they will be crated for those brief periods. We keep our dog-less activities to a minimum during pet stays. We have no fence and our dogs run off-leash. With your dogs, I will walk them leashed because dogs (like children) test boundaries. We also go to creeks and hikes very often, and your dogs will join us leashed (if you approve).

“Jule is amazing. She is so caring and compassionate and my dogs absolutely adore her. She has such a calming presence which is very helpful, since my dogs are very excitable. She was able to help me out on very short notice, which made my life less stressful. I highly recommend Jule! She will treat your fur-babies like her own.”

“Emili was wonderfully patient with our cat, who did not dare show his face to her. Despite our cat's shyness, Emili made sure that he was well fed and taken care of. We're so grateful to her and thanks to her care we came home to a cat who missed us quite a bit. Thank you so much for taking care of our boy, Emili! :)”

About: I have experience with dogs, cats and exotics especially parrots! I have experience with snakes, bearded dragons, rats , Guinea pigs and rats too I’ve watched various neighbors dogs for years and always focus on giving them a fun day since it’s really stressful when your a dog family leaves even for a few days.

I also make sure not to keep any toxic foods in the house as an extra level of precaution and know that you cannot leave them alone because you never know what any pet will get into especially when their routine is disrupted
About: I've had dogs in my home my entire life, and owned several cats too. I understand that our pets are part of a family and they deserve the best care! I work from home and am home most weekends. I can easily add another dog in my home comfortably and provide them with individual attention. I have a safe, fenced in yard with plenty of space (and toys) for dogs to play and run around. My adult daughter is also home and is experienced and comfortable with dogs of all sizes.
