“Samantha has been doing a great job taking care of our puppy during a time of transition. He’s adjusting to having us home less on certain days and it gives us peace of mind to know he is well cared for.”

“It was too wet/rainy outside to walk Gidget, but I kept the appointment time anyway. I wanted to start once a week walks for Gidget to get used to seeing Katie around before house sitting for us. Hubby said that she took the time to get to know her and vice versa. Very pleased with Katie.”

“Jane is really the sweetest and so accommodating. She stays in communication during the walk before and after. Our Pup really enjoys her, so much he couldn’t wait to get in the crate today and have me leave for work so he could go for a walk with her ❤️?”

“Kaitlyn was AMAZING with my dog Mina. Mina is on the older side and has trouble walking sometimes. She took her time with her and Mina got a full walk. I cannot thank Kaitlyn enough for her care and compassion for Mina.”

About: Hi, I’ve owned all types of animals my entire life like dogs, cats, bunnies and birds. I currently work at a pet resort, where I look after pets every day, making sure they’re happy, healthy, and loved. Whether it’s playtime, cuddle time, or feeding time. I treat every animal like my own. I’m also well trained in giving medications or any type of special care! I know how important your pets are, and I’m here to give them the same care and attention I’d want for my own. I currently work at a pet resort where I work all types of hours, from Tuesday-Saturday. I can work anywhere from 6AM-6PM but I’m very flexible with fitting you and your pups into my schedule! Since I have so much experience with animals, I’m okay with helping out with almost anything you need for your pets! Whether it’s cleaning, potty breaks, playing, feeding, medications. I’d love to just spend some time with your pet and be their friend! I do not take pets to my home as I have reactive animals, but I’m always okay with commuting to yours!

About: Amelia Massey Chorlton Introduction: Hello, my name is Amelia Massey Chorlton. I have extensive experience with dogs, having cared for them practically my entire life. From raising our family dog Daisy, a Golden Retriever, until her passing due to old age, to currently running a doggy daycare from my home, dogs have always been a significant part of my life. Professional Experience: I recently left my position as a manager at a doggy daycare, where I worked for three years, to focus on working from home. During my time there, I gained valuable experience in understanding and managing various dog behaviors and deepened my love for all types of dogs. In addition to my daycare management experience, I have also managed an intellectual disability group home, a position I also left to work from home. Personal Experience: I currently own four dogs of various sizes and two cats. I live in an in-law housing situation owned by my mother, which allows me the flexibility to separate dogs as needed. If required, I can crate my dogs and cats, ensuring that your pet will never have to meet mine if that’s your preference. Facilities: • My home features a fully fenced backyard that is divided into sections, allowing me to separate my dogs from visiting dogs while keeping everything securely fenced. • The backyard provides plenty of shade, a kiddie pool, and access to the garage, which is equipped with water bowls, food bowls, beds, toys, and is climate-controlled with both AC and heating for the colder months. Services: • The option to separate dogs or provide solo sitting for dogs with reactivity or behavioral issues. • Experience with senior dogs, puppies, and behavioral dogs. • Years of experience training my own and other dogs. • CPR trained and capable of administering medication to dogs that need it. Please consider me for your next dog-sitting needs. I am passionate and dedicated, and I promise to put my all into caring for each and every dog that comes into my home. Thank you for your consideration! I work from home, allowing me to maintain a very flexible schedule. I am available for dog sitting, dog boarding, dog walking, cat sitting, cat boarding, and drop-in visits as needed. Additionally, I offer complimentary dog walking services when you book boarding at my home. In my home, I ensure pets are cared for in a safe and comfortable environment. When the weather is pleasant, the dogs can enjoy free access to the backyard, where they can roam freely and even jump in the kiddie pool if they wish. The garage is always open during the day, allowing them to move in and out as they please. On particularly hot or cold days, the backyard is only open for potty breaks. During these times, the dogs stay indoors, with the dog door remaining open for them to access their crates, beds, or toys. This setup ensures they can always find a comfortable spot to relax and play!

“Corinne was great with Marsh! He had a great time on his walk with her, he was pooped!”

I have 4 dogs of my own, a dorkie, a chihuahua, a labradoodle and a goldendoodle - we stay very active all the time. Walks, treats & playing, and my labradoodle loves to swim! My Labradoodle enjoys visiting people and it’s not uncommon for us to venture out just for a pup cup or a ride around town. I also have my rescue cats who I love! I’ve worked for an emergency/specialty vet along with a general practice vet and am always trying to further my education! Everyone is always leashed and I take my time depending on the animals abilities/etc when walking or playing. I’m more than familiar with litter boxes and etc and don’t mind spending time with pets. We always have time for socialization and visiting with people- I frequent some businesses that LOVE to see dogs!
