About: I’ve grown up with a variety of pets, and love learning their personalities. More than comfortable with wide ranges of ages and can provide medication, activities, and lots of love! I look forward to meeting your furry friend! I can care for pets after the hours of 5pm on weekdays and anytime on the weekends. I am flexible, outside of weekday working hours 8am-5pm. I feed/water, pet/cuddle, clean up after, bathe/groom, walk/play with my pet on a daily basis, depending on the service, I do the same for my clients.

“Alison was great! We needed a sitter for our pup on vacation while we went to a concert. She was so great with Sage, communicative and sent pics while we were out. We could see how happy Sage was in each photo which helped us enjoy our time together as a family knowing Sage was well cared for. We would definitely book Alison again!”


About: With over a decade of experience caring for dogs, I’ve been the go-to pet caretaker for family members since I was nine. Whether it was for relatives traveling out of town or my own beloved dogs, I’ve handled a variety of breeds and temperaments with the utmost care and dedication. Rest assured, your furry friend will be in experienced, loving hands. My daily routine revolves around my pup. Each morning starts with a walk before I head to school for a few hours. When I get back, we enjoy some quality time, and I make sure my dog is fed and happy. Even when I work the night shift, I have a trusted friend who comes by to take care of my dog. At night, my dog is right by my side, sleeping in the bed with me until the next morning. Your pet will be cared for with the same love and attention I give my own. I prioritize the safety and well-being of every dog in my care. Whether your dog prefers to be in or out of the crate, I ensure they are comfortable and secure. You can trust that I maintain a vigilant and caring watch over all the dogs I look after.

About: With a heart full of love for animals, I treat every pet like family. Your dog won’t just get care—they’ll get a buddy too! My own friendly pup loves to play, so your dog will always have a companion. Whether it’s cuddles, playtime, or just hanging out, I make sure they feel safe, happy, and never alone. I’m especially great with puppies and senior dogs, giving them the attention, patience, and comfort they need. Oh—and if your dog speaks Spanish, no worries… ¡yo también! I work from home, so I’m always around to give your pet the attention they need—day or night. Whether it's potty breaks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I’m fully present and available. Your pet will never feel alone, and you can have peace of mind knowing someone is always there. Safety is always my top priority. I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and at ease from the very beginning. I follow any routines or special instructions you provide and always create a calm, secure environment where your pet can relax, play, and be themselves.

“Jacki was so great! Roscoe immediately felt at home and she sent update photos to keep me in the loop. Fae, her dog, was so sweet and was immediately Roscoe's buddy. Will definitely use her again!”
