“Tee-Tee went above and beyond. Truly. She took EXTRA steps to ensure my dogs were comfortable with her. More than I would have ever expected. And she’s so good with them! I swear they wanted to see her instead of me when I came home. 😂 In addition, she took excellent care of my home. I know that, when I need to be away again, I will have complete peace of mind with Tee-Tee in charge.”

About: I live on a farm back home & have over a decade of animal care of all kinds! I have many farm cats and two dogs at home, as well as two cats that live with me! I have experience with dogs and cats of all ages and sizes & would love to spend time with your best friend!

I’m available to do random walks throughout the day or stay full time at your residence to give 24/7 care to your pet.

About: I have from personal experience- to professional experience in different cultures, understanding and taking care both cats and dogs throughout the years. I've cared for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies to sweet senior dogs, and I treat each one like part of my family. I'm patient, attentive, and make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and entertained while their owners are away. I have experience with different personalities and understand how to make shy pets comfortable and playful pets happy and engaged. My goal is always to give them a fun, stress-free time until you're back. I will be off soon to study at a college. Other than that, any time works for me. My personal schedule is very much flexible. Whether I'm caring for pets in my home or yours, I focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I have a cat of my own, so I understand how important it is to follow their routines and respect their personalities. I make sure pets get the right balance of play, attention, and quiet time, and I keep their environment clean and cozy. In a client's home, I follow your instructions closely and treat your space with care, just as I would want for mine.

“First time using Rover so was slightly nervous and wasn't sure what to expect but Kaylyn helped to make it a seamless and great experience! Our girls can be big needy lapdogs at times and when we got home they said Kaylyn did great, thay felt safe and loved 😁 We love using family when able (wasn't available for this trip), but it's great to know we have a reliable back up with Kaylyn. We will be using her again in the future I'm sure.”

About: I’ve had dogs my entire adult life and have been caring for dogs for over 20 years. I currently have a 9-year-old Boston Terrier who is truly the love of my life, so I understand how important it is to trust someone with your dog. I’m attentive, patient, and very tuned in to dogs’ individual needs and personalities. I love giving dogs plenty of time outside with walks, hikes, and safe play, along with calm companionship and structure. I’m experienced with basic obedience and fun training, including sit, stay, shake, lie down, roll over, heel, and more. I’m comfortable reinforcing routines, providing mental stimulation, and making sure your dog feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Whether your dog is high-energy or more laid-back, I meet them where they are and treat them like they’re my own. I have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to prioritize dog care throughout the day. As a photographer, I can plan my shoots around walks, drop-ins, and check-ins, and I don’t have many long, all-day commitments this year. This means I’m available for consistent walks, extended visits, and quality one-on-one time. I love being active and would genuinely enjoy filling my schedule with caring for dogs and keeping them happy, exercised, and well attended to. I treat every dog as if they were my own and always prioritize safety, routine, and clear communication. I follow all instructions carefully, respect your home, and make sure your dog feels comfortable and secure at all times. I’m attentive on walks, mindful of surroundings, and experienced with leash handling and basic training cues. I’m happy to provide updates, photos, and notes so you feel confident and connected while you’re away.

About: i’ve had dogs my whole life. i’ve taught 3 of my past dogs many commands and tricks. i’ve watched many of my friends dogs and cats. I do work for an electrical company and do work full time so i don’t have a huge availability on weekdays but my weekends are usually free. i love animals and want to continue to work with them!! i care for your pets however you’d like me too of course. meet your and their needs. i care for my pets by walking them everyday and that’s something i enjoy.

About: I've taken care of dogs specifically since I was like 5. Whether it was a friend's dog, a family members or my own. Cats I have taken care of since I was 8. Changing litter? Done. Walking dogs? Done. Training? I do that too! I actually trained my own service dog who has since retired. Feed and water? Of course! Gotta get the essentials. Following directions, I will follow how YOU want your pet(s) taken care of. I have dealt with chihuahuas to great Danes to dogs bigger than that! No animal is too small. I will pick up messes, play with them, train them if you want, and obviously feed and water them. I can even stay over night with a pet if needed! I know some pets need extra support when their humans are a away, and I understand that may mean me staying over night. I have two dogs and two cats. I take care of the two dogs on a daily basis. Cats? Not so much but I do help out when asked as they are not actually mine but my roommates. I take my dogs out at LEAST 3 times a day typically more in warmer weather. But I take them out at least once when I wake up, once after or before lunch, and once before bed after they've ate their dinner. My dogs have stomach issues and only eat once a day near dinner time for me. I get them out more often to play now that its warming up outside In my clients home, as I don't do boarding at my own home, I can bring my own dog if asked for a play buddy but I would like a copy or to see the vaccination records to be safe. I will make sure the animals get some time to play and have plenty of attention while I am there. I will make sure dogs get outside to potty on either the specified schedule from my client or on a schedule I am able to run, but they will get out as much as I can make happen. Cats I'll make sure get some play time, if you're the kind of cat person who let's their cat out on a catio or leash or trust your cat out on its own for a bit I can make those happen too. I will make sure they have fresh litter when needed/requested. I will make sure both cats and dogs have fresh water and food on a schedule determined by the owner or when its needing refilled/changed.

“This was the second time Cynthia took care my two dogs and my house. She was just a wonderful as the first time. Already booked another week with her.”

“Aurora took great care of my puppy during her overnight stay! She was very quick at getting back to us and we were confident she was in good hands. I would definitely recommend Aurora to anyone needing animal care! ?”

About: I have taken in aggressive and puppymill dogs. I have had at least 100 dogs through my home either as rescue, transport or sitting. My family loves all dogs! I work 6 hours per day temporarily but my husband comes home at lunch. If dogs require walks we can do that. We separate everyone at meal times to keep safe. I have fenced in large yard.
