“Kendra is amazing and I highly recommend her! She is very responsive, professional, reliable and always does a wonderful job with our dog. And from the check in pictures she sends, our dog loves her very much!”

“Jessica was fantastic. It was nice to know that our kitties were well taken care of. She sent us pictures every day. We got to enjoy our vacation without worrying about our kitties. I highly recommend using her.”

About: Hi there. I'm Dorian. I'm a huge animal lover. I have 3 cats and 1 dogs. I've cared for animals my whole life. I’ve fostered animals in my home, and I’ve watched pets for family, customers, and friends. Dogs are my passion. They are a huge part of my life. I will treat your pet like family. I am a vigilant sitter. I am experienced with dogs, both young and old. I’ve taken care of puppies and have trained some myself. My husband and son also love animals. We are an animal loving family. I hope you will choose me to take care of your pet(s). I am dedicated, and I will make your animal feel very loved. Thank you for your consideration. Bye bye I have a flexible job and am able to schedule my hours around visits. I am also up early, so I can make early visits. I have a fenced in yard. My dog loves romping and playing outside. In your home, I will make sure your dog is able to go outside-whether in your backyard or on a walk.
About: I've been around animals my whole life. From the littlest of fish, to the largest of cows and other farm animals! I have 3 dogs of my own, two Colorado mountain dogs and a medium pittie mix. I also have 4 geckoes (2 leopards, a giant Madagascar day gecko, and my newest boy, a harlequin crested gecko!). I've dog-sat little dogs, big dogs, disabled and elderly dogs, as well as young pups and households with multiple animals! I will give you the best care, whether it be for your pets, home, or more! Right now I work part-time at a bakery on Sundays, and I am also a full-time college student! Thankfully, my schedule is very flexible and my attention will solely be on your furry friends. I always make sure to keep my client's homes clean and organized, and pay special attention to any extra tasks I'm giving, such as watering plants (I have dozens of plant babies!), changing the temperature, emptying dehumidifiers, and retrieving packages. Anything you need, I will do to the best of my abilities! I like to update my clients daily on their pets to ease their mind.

“Scott has cared for my dogs on multiple occasions, on my return my dogs are happy and all their needs (exercise, relief, food and water) have been attended to. I’d recommend Scott to anyone that needs care for their dogs.”

“Dollie made sure to do a meet and greet with us and our cats to get to know them and go over their care and expectations. Dollie was punctual and spent time with our cats and made sure to send a report with pictures.”
“I booked Leilani and Jessie for the first time over thanksgiving. They came over a few days before to meet Layla and get familiar with the house. Layla is shy and they were so sweet and calm with her. I felt at ease knowing they would be checking in on her. I could tell they really know animals. By the end of the trip Layla was warming up to them nicely. I’ll definitely rebook the next time we go out of town!”

“Melisha responded immediately to my booking request. She was very accommodating and friendly. Melisha kept us updated during her visits. She sent us amazing photos of Stella. Our pup was very content when we got home. We would 100% recommend Melisha!”
About: I have had dogs since I was born - big dogs, little dogs, hyper dogs, and lazy dogs. I took care of those dogs growing up whether it was walking them, watering them, feeding them, or cleaning up after them. However, I’ve taken care of other people’s pets since I was 10, walking and feeding neighbors dogs and cats, as well as sitting for friends and family. I currently am a senior in high school who gets up at 6 for school, so I have early mornings available, and get out of school at 2:30pm. However, this means I do have weekends free all day every day! I have a huge back yard that so many dogs have enjoyed. I have crates from when my dogs were being crate trained, however now they roam so those crates are open if needed, otherwise I love a dog that likes to sleep in bed!
About: Home Environment I live in a spacious house featuring a securely fenced back yard, providing a safe and comfortable environment for pets to play and relax. My Chihuahua, who is notably sociable and friendly, enjoys interacting with other dogs, cats, and people alike. Resident Pets In addition to my Chihuahua, I share my home with two cats that I rescued from the local animal shelter. Both cats are well-adjusted and accustomed to living with dogs. Typically, after a brief introduction consisting of a few sniffs and perhaps a hiss, they are able to coexist peacefully with other cats. Experience and Availability Since retiring from the Army, I am available around the clock to care for your beloved pet. With more than 26 years of experience in owning and caring for both dogs and cats, I am well-versed in understanding and meeting their unique needs. Commitment to Care I promise to care for your pet as if it were my own, ensuring its safety, comfort, and happiness. Every animal entrusted to me is treated as an extended and respected member of my household. I am a retired Army veteran and parent of a Chihuahua and 2 cats. I am available around the clock to take care of your fur baby as a respected member of my household. I have a fenced yard and a very friendly Chihuahua to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed. My cats ignore dogs that don't want to play. If your dog dislikes cats, I am able to separate their living areas while your dog is on-site.
“Lindsey was awesome! She stopped by a day prior to meet my feisty pet that doesn’t really let anyone touch her. The next day Lindsey started her shifts and my dog acted like she knew Lindsey from before! Awesome person. Will definitely use her services again!”
