About: I adopted my first dog, Ollie, when I was 18 years old. Shortly after I discovered he was suffering from kidney failure and epilepsy. This resulted in frequent vet visits and daily medications, and I'm comfortable administering medication to your pets. Now, I have three cats that I've had for almost five years, living their best lives. I love my pets and I'm looking forward to giving your best friends the same level of love and care. I work full-time. I'm available after 2pm on most days - I try to keep my availability on my profile accurate but due to the nature of my job I may have more or less availability than what is listed. Please don't hesitate to reach out and ask! Daily care routine starts in the morning with food, medication, and cleaning litter boxes. We play at their request and make sure they have access to all their toys.

Madyson is the most responsive sitter I think I have ever had. She responds promptly to any messages I send her and sends me regular updates which is important to me so I don’t worry while I’m away. She doesn’t do anything we haven’t discussed without checking with me first and always lets me know her schedule. We came home to happy dogs and cats and a house cleaner than when we left. I am so happy we found Madyson!

About: I was raised with dogs (shelties, primarily) and now have a hobby farm with goats, dogs (german shepherds, a lab and a sheltie), ducks and a cat. I'm reliable and friendly and happy to follow whatever instruction and routine you need. Your pets will be well cared for and you'll receive plenty of photo updates while you're gone! I have a very flexible schedule, so I am able to accommodate nearly any routine your pet is used to, including frequent walks and potty breaks. I will work with you to keep your pet's schedule as close to what they are used to as possible. If boarding in my home, we have a fenced yard, plenty of area to go on leashed walks, and they will get plenty of one on one attention and care. I'm happy to do transport or add in a bath during your pet's stay so your life can be as simple as possible while you're trying to get out the door for your trip. Pet care is my full time job and priority. I can adapt as needed to make sure your pet keeps the routine they are comfortable with, even when you aren’t home. I will ask questions and take notes on your pets’ routine and then do my best to ensure that those habits are in place with me.

Jimmy was fantastic! Our dog is nervous when first meeting people and Jimmy was patient and friendly! He took great care of our pets and house and I’m so grateful he was available for our last minute request. He sent us pics and updates regularly. 10/10 would book again! Thank you, Jimmy!

Dayton was great! We had a last minute trip and thankfully she was available and responded to our request quickly. Our dogs loved her and even our shy cat. She sent pictures and updates while we were gone and replied to our messages right away. We felt very comfortable leaving all our pets with her. She asked questions about their care and was very genuine and friendly. We would and hopefully will work with her again!

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was a lil thang, I’ve always had such a soft spot for them & my passion is to become a dog trainer ! I’m always going to make time if I know a dog needs it, & I am super weird about people around my dog so I want to make sure that you’re dog is more than comfortable. Well I’m always going to have the dog in my sight, but if the area is not fenced in & the dog doesn’t have the best recall, leash it is!

About: What sets me apart is the genuine care I give every dog. I focus on trust, safety, routine, and affection, treating each pet like family—not just a booking. Pet care fits naturally into my daily schedule, as I have two dogs of my own who are in a routine. This will allow me to provide consistent attention, regular walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship without rushing or distractions throughout the day. I have two friendly pups of my own who will keep your pups comfortable. I will provide a calm, safe, and structured environment. I will follow their routines while providing supervision, affection, and a relaxed environment.

About: I have experience caring for all age ranges of cats and dogs. I have 3 years of animal welfare experience previously working in a shelter and i have always naturally been a huge animals lover. I have the ability to read animals body language really well. I connect quickly with every animal I meet! I have experience with different kinds of energy levels as well.

I have a 3 year old dog named Ace who came to me as a puppy. I raised him and have trained him to be off leash, sit, stay, paw, and heel. (Basic commands) if you need assistance or would like for me to work with your dog in any training/ socializing way please reach out! Currently available anytime! Would love to have the ability to work with your animals and still have the time to give my animals the loving they deserve as well! I walk my dog every chance I get while working on any minor behavioral or fear based problems to insure my baby can live a full healthy happy life.

April is seriously the sweetest. She helped us out with a last-minute work trip and still showed up with so much care even while going through a hard time herself. Our dogs were happy and well taken care of and that gave us so much peace of mind. We truly appreciate her and would 100% love working with her again. 💛

She just has such a nice way about her and her love for animals. Definitely will be having her back to watch my Buddy on our next vacay. Highly Recommended

Robin was very professional, friendly, and fantastic with our two dogs. She sent pics of our dogs over the entire weekend she was caring for them. She also left notes about each time she was over and took them out or fed them, which we really appreciated. I recommend Robin for everyone looking for great at home care and will be booking with her again in in the future!
