“We were initially apprehensive about hiring someone to take care of our beloved Shih Tzu-Yorkshire terrier mix, Nikko. However, Cindy’s exceptional service quickly put our worries to rest. She went above and beyond in every aspect of her care. Nikko had a fantastic time at Cindy’s daycare and even made some new doggie friends. Cindy kept us updated throughout the entire process, sending pictures and providing detailed updates on Nikko’s activities and well-being. It was clear that she genuinely cared about Nikko and his happiness.

About: Absolutely obsessed with all fur babies! I have two playful French Bulldogs, Alfredo and Maple, so I’m well-versed in picky eaters, stroller rides, medication administration, slobbery kisses, and snuggly (sometimes stinky) cuddles. My home also includes two spoiled cats who stay separate at all times, ensuring a stress-free environment for pets who prefer a feline-free stay. I provide reliable, loving care tailored to each pet’s needs, with plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. With a fully remote job, I’m home all day to give your pet the care they deserve. Plus, my large, fenced-in yard (6 feet tall) offers plenty of space for safe playtime! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine! With a fully remote job, I’m home all day to provide consistent care, supervision, and attention. My own dogs have set meal times, potty breaks, and play sessions, which makes it easy to incorporate other pets into our schedule. Whether it’s walks, playtime in my fenced yard, snuggles on the couch, or medication administration, I make sure every pet gets the individualized care they need. In my home, I provide a safe, structured, and loving environment tailored to each pet’s needs. Dogs enjoy supervised playtime in my yard, plenty of snuggles, and a routine that includes regular meals, potty breaks, and exercise. My own dogs are friendly and playful, but I can also accommodate dogs who prefer their own space. Crate-trained dogs are welcome to bring their crate for a familiar, comfortable sleeping arrangement. Cats in my home stay completely separate, ensuring a stress-free environment for visiting pets. For in-home pet care, I follow the owner’s instructions closely to maintain their pet’s normal routine. This includes feeding, administering medication if needed, walks, playtime, and lots of attention. I make sure pets feel comfortable and cared for, whether that means sticking to their usual schedule or giving extra cuddles while their family is away.

“Kelsey is amazing!! She took wonderful care of my young puppy two days in a row and my pup came home happy and tired. Her dog Kitana is so sweet and played so well with my little dog. She also took the BEST pictures! HIGHLY recommend!”


“Thanks for watching Freyja and the pupdates throughout the day!”


“Katie is a gem! She took excellent care of our normally anxious beagle and our playful Boston Terrier. Needless to day, they were on their best behavior and tuckered out when I picked them up at the end of the day. Katie is kind, warm and understanding. She makes sure all the dogs are comfortable with one another before the day begins - something I appreciate. I'll definitely be using Katie again!”


“Kevin made my Staffordshire so happy!! He came home with lots of smiles, and we sincerely appreciated being fitted into the schedule on short notice. :)”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 16, and to me, they’re not just pets—they’re family. I have a soft spot for puppies and experience training them, but I also love giving senior dogs the gentle care they need.

It’s a perfect balance, and it allows me to give your dog the attention they deserve while still getting my work done. Safety’s my priority, and I want your fur baby to feel at home. With a fenced-in yard and a friendly dog to keep them company, they’ll have plenty of space to play. I also have cozy crates for relaxation. My home is a calm, loving space where every pup gets the care they deserve.

About: Hello! My name is Siri and I have been taking care of animals my whole life. I have lots of experience with cats, dogs, and even lizards! I grew up with large dogs (newfoundlands, to be exact) so they don't scare me away. I am very active so I am more than happy to run with your dog too if you'd prefer a more active walk for them! I raised my own dog from puppyhood and have personally crate trained her, potty trained her, and taught her 15+ tricks/commands. I work from home Mondays and Fridays and I am in the office from 8am - 5pm) Tues-Thurs. I usually take breaks during my work from home days to walk/play with the animals. I have a water carrier/bowl combo bottle for dogs if they get thirsty during their walk, and I also keep treats on me to work on any leash reactivity (using positive reinforcement training). My own dog gets walked four times a day. My cat has a water fountain and lots of toys. The litterboxes are cleaned daily and deep cleaned once a month. My cat is fed on a schedule (once in the morning and once in the evening) but I am happy to accomodate any feeding preferences for my clients pets.

About: My intro to pet care started in my childhood, including an unexpected pregnancy of our family dog resulting in the birth of 13 puppies! 15 years into adulthood I adopted a dog and currently have a 2 y/o goldendoodle. I have attended a variety of puppy and dog training programs, knowing that a well-trained human and pup makes for a happy pup. I currently work from home with a flexible schedule. I get my own dog out for walks daily and a game of fetch as often as possible. Available for morning, lunchtime, and evening drop-ins, bringing your dog along with mine, or devoted individual attention. Can crate in my home or drop in to yours. Walks, parks, hikes, games of fetch, cuddles, and treats. My home includes extra attention from elementary and middle school aged kids.

“Alli is the best of the best! She put my heart and mind at ease. I was so nervous having someone watch our puppy and she was so reassuring and loving. She spoiled our puppy and provided updates every couple of hours! I could not be more thankful for her!!”
