“Kathy was so incredible! She took care of our chocolate lab for 3 plus weeks and did amazing. Kona was well cared for and I got daily updates which made being away from her a little easier.”

“We had a week trip coming up and prior to that, we did a trial overnight stay at Randy's for our dog. When we brought our dog on the 1st day of our week trip, our dog waggled her tail as soon as she saw Randy. We felt so comfortable leaving our dog to Randy knowing our dog likes her. She sent photos and videos to us during the trip and kept us informed how our dog was doing. We will definitely use her as our dog sitter on our next trip as well. Thank you so much Randy!!”

About: I have 5 years of hands-on experience caring for my own dog, a German Shepherd, who has been with me since he was a puppy. I currently work afternoon shifts from 2 pm to 10 pm, which means I’m fully available in the mornings for walks, drop-in visits, and quality time with your dog. My days off are usually Tuesdays and Wednesdays, when I have full availability and flexibility. I’m reliable, organized, and always plan my schedule carefully to make sure every dog gets the attention they deserve. I prioritize safety, trust, and clear communication at all times. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding routines, feeding, walks, and house rules. I’m respectful in clients’ homes and always make sure dogs are secure, comfortable, and calm. I keep environments clean and controlled, and I treat every dog as if it were my own.

About: Aloha! I'm Shanon, a naturopathic physician who loves to take care of pets in people's homes. I began caring for my neighbor's cat when I was 10 years old, graduating to dog care in my teens. Since then I have done pet sits in many states and countries, seeing some pets through their lifetimes. My clients have included dogs, cats, bunnies, tortoises, snails, fish and birds. I have also cared for chickens and horses and am willing to look after small farm animals such as goats and sheep. If requested, I take care of gardens/plants, mail/packages and any other issues that may arise while you are gone. Want local or distance references? There are many. Please ask for them! I look forward to hearing from you. Aloha, Shanon Much of my work is online so that I can spend the maximum amount of time with your furry, feathered and scaled friends - I aim to be at home 75% of the time. I treat all pets as my own so they get the attention, love and care they deserve. My services can also include administering medication (pills, subcutaneous injections for cats, insulin shots etc). I strive for your home to be in the same, if not better condition than when you left, and for your pets to be as well-tended to when you are away as when you are home.

“Richelle is great with our puppy who is sometimes too rambunctious with her more calm dogs. She instinctively knows when it’s best to separate them. Our Sophie loves going to her house!”

“My husband and I were nervous about leaving our 8 month old blue heeler with a dog sitter because we had never left him with anyone before. Zakk was a very soft spoken easy going dog sitter that our energetic blue heeler pup took to right away. Zakk met us a local dog park, and to our surprise, Jax hopped right into his car to go spend the day with him. Zakk and his dog played with Jax and him on a hike. When we picked Jax up at the end of the day he was exhausted and happy.”

“Kathy was an amazing help when we had to leave town for a family emergency. Our dog just loved spending time with her! It was nice to know he was well cared for so we could focus on family while we were away.”

About: I have absolutely loved dogs my whole life, and would love to spend my time taking care of your dog! Whether its long walks, playing, running, or just spending some time with your furry friend. I have been walking dogs of all sizes for over a decade, and love spending my time this way. I have spent my whole life around dogs and have helped in training many dogs, including puppies.

About: I take care of 6 dogs I love friendly dogs I can work anytime I'm willing to babysit the dogs at home anything to keep the dog happy Pet care fits naturally into my schedule, especially on Sundays, Thursdays, and Fridays, when I have more availability. I’m able to dedicate time to feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and giving pets plenty of love and attention. I’m flexible and happy to follow each pet’s individual routine and needs. I care for every pet like they’re my own. I make sure they have fresh food and water, plenty of exercise and playtime, and lots of love and attention. I follow their normal routine and any special instructions from their owner. I also keep their space clean and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away.
