“Noleen is a wonderful sitter! She truly cares about the pets that are left in her care ? I recently had to travel and did not want to leave my girl at the vet. I wanted somewhere she could move around and not be caged the majority of the time. She is a rescue and has separation anxiety. Noleen took extra care to make sure she adjusted well for her stay and she was happy and well cared for when I picked her up. Noleen is a super sitter and if you are looking for a safe and loving sitter to watch your pets, don't hesitate to use her.”

About: Growing up, I spent as much time as I could volunteering at shelters and animal rescues, learning how to care for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. Once I was old enough to work, I took on professional roles involving animals, gaining hands-on experience in everything from basic care to behavior support. I don’t just watch pets—I connect with them, spoil them, and make sure they feel safe, loved, and completely at home while you’re away. currently attend night classes from 6:00 to 9:30 PM during the week, which means I’m available during the day for drop-in visits, walks, and quality time with your pup! My daytime availability allows me to give your dog plenty of attention, exercise, and care while you’re busy. I’m committed to making sure your pet feels happy and comfortable, even during your busiest hours. In my home, I keep things calm, safe, and structured—perfect for pets who thrive on routine. I live in a small apartment, so I make sure pets get plenty of outdoor time and stimulation throughout the day. I take my own dogs out on leash every 1–2 hours for short potty breaks and fresh air, and we go on a longer walk once a day—usually after dinner when it’s cooler outside. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I focus on consistency, comfort, and keeping them active, loved, and well-cared for. I tailor everything to fit your pet’s needs and routine.

About: I’ve taken care of my family’s animals while they have been out of town or running out for groceries for about say 2 years now I have a routine with my own animal so it’s a daily thing in my house hold to do it without it my day wouldn’t be complete. I have supervised outings with my dog and families dogs and my fur baby will be there to keep your fur baby occupied and played with

“Joule was amazing! 👏 I can't thank her enough for caring for my fur baby like he was one of her own while I was on vacation. I was so nervous leaving him but Joule reassured me he would be just fine with her. She sent me photos daily of how much fun he was having! We kept in constant communication which made feel at ease. He came home so exhausted from having such a good time. I cannot recommend her enough! I will be boarding with her in the future. Thank you so much Joule for taking care of Axle! ❤️🐶”

About: I was raised with cats and dogs. I read a dog training book when I was in high school. I have always been mission-oriented, and today's mission is to ensure your pets are looked after and that you are confident they are safe and healthy. My schedule revolves around animals. If I'm not spending time with my dogs, then it's my mom's dogs. If it's not her dogs, then it's chickens. (Dogs are more fun, have you tried playing fetch with a chicken?) I will care for your pets with the same love and affection I provide to my own dogs, excluding any rough-housing since my dogs tend to play quite boisterously. I will diligently follow all instructions to the best of my abilities and will communicate promptly if I encounter any difficulties, seeking an alternative solution.

About: I do not currently own any cats but very comfortable with them. Can watch for extended periods of time or on very short noticee!! Xm

“We really enjoyed Katarina. She took such great care of our cavapoo,"Cafe". Katarina was very kind, welcoming, friendly and endearing. The entire experience was exactly what I had hoped for. Katarina was punctual and on time. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone that is in need of a doggie daycare. You won't be disappointed.”

Debbi C.

About: I’ve had pets since childhood. We have owned 2 Great Danes as well as smaller breeds and cats. I have a heart for animals. I regularly donate food, litter, toys and cleaning supplies to our local shelter. Over the years I’ve done dog sitting for others. I am reliable and trustworthy. I worked in childcare/education for many years and have had a background check as well as being fingerprinted. I am available 7 days a week to care for your pets. I worked outside the home for 25 plus years in childcare/education. I have more time on my hands now and would enjoy helping families with their pet care needs. We live on 5 acres and have a fenced area for dogs to run and exercise. We are a tobacco free family. Our home is a large clean well maintained home. I separate my dogs for feeding and have crates for time to chill out, nap ect. We have beds and blankets for comfort and plenty of treats. We no longer have a cat as my almost 17 year old cat passed away this summer.

“We just got in to town and we I had a family emergency. We didn’t have anyone to take care of our pets. She was on the spot and made me feel comfortable to leave my pets and home in her trust.”

Hilary C.

“Melissa is very reliable and responds quickly. Max and Ruby love their walks with Melissa, they always have the biggest smiles in all the picture updates. Would highly recommend Melissa, your fur babies will be well taken care of.”

“Timothy was great with my dog. They went for a walk and played in the yard for a bit. My dog was very excited to see Timothy. I will definitely use him again.”

Kristina S.

About: I have 28 years experience with dogs of different breeds, with my favorite being German shepherds. I had 2 for 10 years. They both passed away last year so I currently do not have any dogs or other animals. Experience with various different types of reptiles - snakes, monitors, geckos. Ducks, chickens, you name it - I will look after it🫡 I have a very flexible schedule that would allow me to be available for long periods of times, very short notice, end during business hours, when most people are at work and neither their dog looked after. I will go over rules very extensively with everyone before the booking. Thank you medication’s for everything will be labeled and talked abouttt.m
