About: Hey! I’m a lifelong animal nerd with 20+ years of hands-on experience — dogs, cats, fish, farm animals… you name it. I’ve done everything from basic care to grooming and handling special needs pets(Diabetes and administering chemo meds). I also have a soft spot for rescues — I’ve taken in more than a few over the years, including cats, dogs, and even birds. Yup… parrot/wild bird experience too. My home is basically a safe-haven full of spoiled, happy furballs and feathers. If you’re nervous about leaving your baby with someone new, totally get it. I’m always happy to chat, send pics/updates, and answer questions so you feel good about who’s caring for your pet. Whether your pet needs walks, cuddles, meds, or just someone calm to hang with while you’re away, I’m here. Reach out any time — I’d love to help. My days revolve around my pets, I work from home so I have availability to be here or there when needed, before my full time job starts up I have even more availability! All my animals are free roam, I have a large fenced in yard, all my cats love all my dogs and vice versa. My house is pet friendly and designed for safety and ease of loving and protecting all my babies.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs every since I was a child. From helping neighbors, friend and family care and love on their babies to owning my very own house full of fur babies. My husband and I foster cats and dogs with a handful of amazing rescues, we have been doing this for 5 years now and have accumulated a few “foster fails.” The last year we have primarily fostered newborn puppies or litters with mom included. Youngest animals I’ve cared for were 3 week old puppies and our oldest dog right now is 16 years young. I’m currently between travel assignments so I am home full time! I have a completely open and free schedule to help with your animals needs. I have a fenced in back yard and 2 pups to keep your dog company! All my dogs are up to date on vaccines, crate-trained, temperament tested, and socialized through day care. My house is also large enough where I have been able to section of an area as my foster dog/boarding area, that is completely separated from my dogs crates.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats as pets my entire life and have cared for them like my babies! I’m a nurse so I understand physiology and have cared for sick pets as well. I have experience with dogs, cats, rabbits, and chickens. I currently work remotely so I have plenty of flexibility to travel and help you with your babies while you are away. Overnight stays any day of the week are no problem. I will take care of your baby in your own home so that they aren’t traumatized by a new place while missing you. My goal is to keep them in their same routines and environment so that they have a peaceful and low stress experience.

Kristen has a wonderful personality and made me and Gye, my 1 year old Akita, feel secure about her services. Nothing but good vibes. Her knowledge of greeting him, and handling him worked very well. She was extremely flexible, responsive and professional in our phone, text and email conversations. She followed the protocol left for her with no problems at all. I highly recommend her and will look to connect with her again. Thanks Kristen!

About: “Dogs do speak, but only to those who know how to listen.” Ever since I was 2 years old I’ve had at least one dog in my house. I always found it odd I would rather be in the presence of animals instead of my fellow human beings. I’ve owned dogs anywhere from chihuahuas to pit bulls over the course of my 32 years of existence, all of which I loved dearly and miss so much. Theres no size or age of dog I would not be able to handle and care for. I understand how stressful and anxiety inducing it may be to leave your animal while you go on vacation. Allow me to care for your baby and keep their tail wagging as if it were my own! I currently have no obligations other than making sure your animal is properly cared for and loved while you are away from home. If your animal requires daily walks for however many miles or if they would rather relax and cuddle on the couch then we will do that. Whatever is “normal” for your dog, rest assured I will meet them there. There is no task I couldn’t handle or would not do for your baby. I’m of the belief that once you’ve had a wonderful dog, a life without one is a life diminished. Allow me to care for your wonderful dog while you are away. Safety and trust is most important. I like to keep schedule routine as much as possible. For example, if you crate your animal at night at 8pm and that’s what you would like for your animal while you are away then I will make sure I keep their schedule as much as possible while their parents are away. I am very quick to respond on my phone by either text or call. Again, I know it’s stressful leaving animals at home. Allow me to send daily messages and pictures of your animal to give you peace of mind while you enjoy your trip!

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a kid. From hand nursing, administration of medicine, to helping them recover after surgery. I love and respect animals and their owners. I want to provide any service I can to make a pet or owner’s day easier! I work part time from 2-6 on week days. Other than those hours, I will be able to commit every moment to your pups or cats. I have a fenced yard that is big enough for running laps, trees and plants to smell, and plenty of squirrels to entertain your dog. I have two loving pups of my own, a black lab and a 40lb rescue mixed breed. I can let them socialize or keep them separated up to your standards. My home is baby proofed for a 2 year old, so the dog can not get into anything that a toddler can’t! I have a large size crate available in my home for your convenience.

About: We live with two beautiful pups and grew up with both dogs, cats, and even horses and livestock. Our experience with all is plentiful. Pets especially love our friendly nature, kind voice, and active lifestyle for a robust playtime. My husband and I currently work remotely full time, which has given us the ability to pet-sit for friends and family locally and even in different states! When I lived in NYC I walked up to six dogs at a time for about a year. We have a fenced yard for playtime, a sidewalk and dog park for walks and playtime. There is no food or trash to accidentally get into as everything is made to be pet safe.

About: I've worked in a nursing home and coached youth camps throughout my young adult years. I grew up with dogs and I now have two of my own; a 3 year old mini-cockerpoo, who is very playful, friendly, and submissive, and a 1 yr old Australian-labradoodle. I live an active lifestyle and am very affectionate so you can find us at the dog park, on walks/runs, or all cuddled up together. I am available for services every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, usually with 3 days notice. I am very active and like to bring my own dogs to the dog park almost daily, so I aim to prioritize and maximize their activity needs. I live in a house with long leash extensions for my dogs to play in our spacious yard (working on a fence soon). I aim to take them to the dog park daily and they are very playful, friendly, submissive, active, and cuddly so I can take him on both the small and big dog side. I am very engaging, energetic, loving, and caring so I like to give my all to the dogs and create a fun and safe environment for them to exert all their energy and cozy up to me when they’ve got nothing left.
