About: I have a deep love and respect for every pet I care for. I adopted a sick puppy, and through patience and nurturing, he has blossomed into a beloved member of my family. This experience has taught me the profound bond that can develop between a pet and their caregiver, highlighting the importance of kindness and understanding in every interaction. I’ve also gained experience by showing care and compassion to animals in need around me, making sure they feel safe and comfortable. Each animal has its own unique personality and needs, and I strive to create a warm and welcoming environment for them all. My commitment to treating every pet with compassion ensures they feel loved and secure while in my care. I work remotely as a freelancer, which gives me the flexibility to integrate pet care into my daily routine seamlessly. This allows me plenty of time to spend with furry friends, playing, cuddling, and ensuring they receive the love and attention they deserve. My schedule enables me to provide a nurturing and engaging environment, ensuring that every pet feels comfortable and cared for throughout the day. When caring for pets in my home or a client's home, I prioritize their safety and comfort above all else. I follow their food schedule diligently to ensure they maintain a healthy routine. Engaging with pets through playtime and interactive activities is essential, as it keeps them stimulated and happy. Since I do not have pets of my own, I can provide a safe and distraction-free environment for them. Living in an apartment allows me to easily take them for walks outside in green areas, where they can explore and enjoy some fresh air. If needed, I can safely crate pets to provide them with a secure space to relax. My home is a welcoming environment filled with love and attention, ensuring every pet feels safe and at ease. Building trust is key, and I take the time to understand each pet's unique personality and needs, creating a positive experience for both them and their owners.

“My husband and I were very nervous about having a stranger watch our babies. Hillary was very understanding and she kept us informed throughout her entire stay. We have 2 older dogs that required extra attention, she gave them their medications, monitored their eating and kept us up to date on their status. Hillary went above and beyond, she washed the dishes and the sheets in the room she stayed in. We would definitely hire her again.”

About: I’ve have taken care of dogs ever since I was a teenager. I love taking care of dogs they bring me such a joy. I know that each dog has their own personality and I love seeing them shine in there own ways. I have taken care of dogs as young as 6 months old to dogs that are 9 years old. I know that senior dogs definitely need more attention when it comes to potty breaks. I also have changed dog diapers. I also grown up with large dog breeds such as Pitbulls, Rottweilers and Huskies. I have also taken care of small dogs such as toy poodles, schnauzer and pekingese. I currently work as a property manager for an Airbnb that runs within my home. Which gives me the flexibility to watch pets. I understand that each pet has their own needs and I want to do what’s best for them. I’m very fortunate to have a fully fence, home, and a separate backyard for my pets and yours. My dogs have their own space and your pet will be staying with me so I can watch them.

About: Although my cats may not like dogs, I do!! I would love for an opportunity to have a 4 legged companion to join me on my daily walks- something my cats are just simply not willing to do. I am available most days, very flexible!! At the moment I am a stay at home mom so I’m happy to drop in whenever. Message me with any questions!! I have 3 indoor cats, who all live a very lavish lifestyle. Scooping liter & ensuring cats / dogs have clean water and food bowls is always a must. Laser toys & interactive toys are my go to (even if you have lazy cats like mine)

Samantha made our camping trip stress free. Great communication, 100% animal lover (she gets it), and even our shy kitty warmed up to her. House was left in great condition and we were given daily updates on the status of things while we were out. Undoubtedly will book again.

Rachelle was a life saver! We booked last minute and although we were scared of leaving our fur babies behind along with our house she definitely made us feel comfortable. She communicated with us and sent us pictures of our dogs. We also appreciated that she waited for us to come back from our trip, felt like the longest 4 days but we were completely happy with her service 🫶
