“Selena did a fantastic job looking after my three cats!!! I loved getting pics of them each visit and her pricing was very fair!! Highly recommend, I will be booking her for my next out of town trip”


“Aimie is the best! She kept us up to date with each visit, and sent us daily report along with pictures. She is quick to answer text messages, and very easy to comunicate with. We would definitely book her again and recommend her services 100%! Thank You Aimie!”


“Taylor was amazing!! Our dogs were happy to see her every time she came to take care of them and she went above and beyond with their care and caring for my plants while we were away. I came home to happy and healthy pups and plants, I can’t recommend Taylor enough. My dogs have anxiety and are wary of strangers so the fact they loved her really shows how caring and kind she is. She is simply wonderful!”


About: I’m 24 years old and recently graduated with a Bachelor’s in Science in May 2023. My love for animals began in my childhood, I always loved pretending to be a veterinarian and I plan on becoming one sometime in the future. Ive had pets as long as I can remember whether it was a dog or a cat. In high school, I was actively involved in FFA, which further fueled my passion for animal care. I have experience caring for a variety of animals, including cats, dogs, chickens, ducks, sugar gliders, ferrets, along with many others. I also interned at a wildlife rehab center in college, where I gained valuable experience working with wildlife animals. I am a dedicated and organized person, currently working as a vet assistant at a veterinary hospital. This experience allows me to handle senior animals and help with any medical needs your furry babies may have. My diverse background has equipped me with the skills to provide loving and attentive care to all kinds of pets! I am a full-time vet assistant working at a veterinary animal hospital, typically not available from 7:30 AM to 6 PM on weekdays. While I usually have weekends off, there may be occasions when I have a weekend shift, and I will inform clients in advance. Additionally, I can accommodate clients' pets by fitting in time before and after my work hours. I am committed to providing flexible and reliable care for your pets while balancing my professional responsibilities. Thank you for understanding my schedule! Caring for people's pets is a true passion of mine. I love spending time with all animals and consider them to be like family. Working at a veterinary animal hospital allows me to connect with various pets, and I always make it a priority to give each patient the love and attention they deserve while they are away from their families. Im also good with any emergency situations as my work environment deals with after hours emergencies too!~ To ensure that each pet feels comfortable and engaged, I enjoy spending quality time with them by watching movies, taking them out for walks, or even playing fetch. I believe that every pet needs companionship, care, and understanding. My goal is to create a nurturing environment where pets feel loved and valued, making their experience as enjoyable as possible.

About: I cannot remember a time in my life when I did not have a dog so I have plenty of exprience. I have a 9 year old pup of my own and it has been the best nine years of my life. My friends always come to me with questions when getting a new dog. I would love to care for your dog in the most loving and fun way possible because I know I would want the same thing for my sweet pup. I am in school so my hours are pretty flexible. I love to take my pup for walks. Excellent fetch player/ pup cuddler. I believe all dogs deserve to be treated with love and kindness. Im currently in school and I only work part time so I have plenty of free time to care for and love on fur babies. My pup addy loves dogs and loves to play in our big backyard. We love to cuddle so dogs have free range on the furniture in our house.

“Carrie has been one of the greatest sitters I've had for my babies. She has always gone above and beyond. My military schedule changes frequently and she will accommodate all the changes. You will not be disappointed.”

“Kaitlin was wonderful she really helped me out especially because i scheduled last minute. She’s great lulu loves her and she found a new toy for me to tire my puppy out. Great communication and Respectful!!I no issues at all.”



About: I am at home most of the day and go on walks every 2 to 4 hours depending on the dogs needs. Will provide pictures if needed. I have a doggie camera for when i am not at home that allows me to talk to them and see what they are up to. Very easy to get along with and flexible. I have a Jack Russel terrier myself so I have lots of toys for a high energy dog. Also had use to older more mellow dogs that need to relax. I work at home so your dog will always have someone around to look after them. All dog breeds are welcome. Prefer dogs that do not have a aggressive personality since I may have other dogs being boarded.

About: I've had dogs for most of my life, some with health conditions that require medication, so I'm no stranger to the necessities of caring for a pet. I've also had friends who have trusted me with dog sitting and walking their dogs. Providing as much care to pets allows the opportunity to establish a good relationship with them and sooth any kind of anxiety they may experience when their owners are gone. During walks I make sure your dog is not exposed to any danger, such as keeping them away from any moving cars. Staying alert for any other dogs to prevent any kind of behavior that may cause harm. I also make sure to pick after them to keep a safe environment. While dropping in to keep a pet company I make sure they have sufficient water and food, if they need to relieve themselves and play with them/ offer back rubs to sooth them.
