“Melissa and her family were great! Provided updates, pics while we were away, which are much appreciated. A seamless drop off and pickup, too. Hoping our dog can stay with Melissa in the future and definitely recommend.”
“She was so great with him. We explained that we’re students and she was so kind and willing to work with our budget which we really appreciated!! She sent us a few updates and said everything went well and Chewy was doing great! Some people may want more frequent updates, but personally we appreciated that she wasn’t sending us a million pictures every day lol. It was the right amount of updates to know he was ok while still enjoying our vacation when we couldn’t be on our phones all that much. Also, she even offered to pick him up and drop him off which made things so much easier for us with all the packing and crazy travel. Definitely recommend her and hope to book with her again the next time we go out of town!”
“Courtney and her family loved my dogs almost as much as I do. Your dogs will be well cared for by Courtney and her family. I actually felt bad about taking my dogs from her kids when I left. They had all bonded during the stay. It was so sweet.”
“Amany was amazing! She was so flexible, as she agreed to a last minute booking with my pup. She also responded quickly and answered all my questions. My pup was so spoiled during the stay. He went shopping and was definitely part of the family during the stay. He was so tired from all the play time and extra attention, he fell asleep in the car on the way home. I will definitely use Amany again!”
“Super happy with how our pup was treated! Wendy (Alice) did a fantastic job taking care of Minima, taking her for walks, and keeping in contact while we were away. She knows what she is doing!”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I’m the proud owner of a 3-year-old high-energy Aussiedoodle named Arlo, so I’m very comfortable meeting the needs of active, intelligent dogs who thrive on routine, exercise, and attention. We spend our weekends hiking and exploring the outdoors, which has given me a strong appreciation for physical and mental enrichment for pets. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and set of needs, and I strive to provide patient, attentive, and reliable care so both pets and owners feel at ease. Whether it’s keeping up with daily walks, playtime, feeding routines, or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. On weekdays, I work from 8–5 but live close enough to come home during my lunch break for potty breaks, walks, feeding check-ins, and some one-on-one time. Pets are never left alone all day and get consistent care throughout the day. Mornings and evenings include walks, playtime, and relaxed downtime at home. On weekends, my schedule is very flexible, which allows for longer walks, outdoor adventures, and extra attention. I’m especially comfortable caring for high-energy dogs and making sure they get the exercise and enrichment they need. I care for pets in my home just like I do my own dog — with lots of attention, routine, and love. I follow each pet’s normal schedule for meals, walks, and any special instructions, and make sure they get plenty of playtime, exercise, and downtime. I’m comfortable with both dogs and cats, including high-energy dogs. I work 8–5 on weekdays but come home at lunch for walks and check-ins, so pets aren’t left alone all day. On weekends, we enjoy longer walks, outdoor time, and a relaxed pace. My goal is to help pets feel safe, comfortable, and at home while keeping owners updated and worry-free.
“I was nervous about boarding my fur babies (3 of them) but Stephanie was so sweet with them as soon as we got to her house. Her home is set up for your four legged family. She sent video of them and let me know they were adjusting well. We will definitely be asking her to board our four legged babies the next time we go out of town and can't take them with us!”
“Mikayla is absolutely amazing! I don’t have enough kind/positive words to describe our experience. We boarded our 2 dogs with her for just under a week. One of our dogs is very scared of strangers, but Mikayla had him warmed up and part of the family in just a couple of days! I was so impressed and glad to know that both my babies were taken care of and loved just as they are at home (if not more!). Thank you, Mikayla!”
About: I have been taking care of animals since I was 10. I have cared for a blind senior cat as well as a cat with hip problems, which required patience, close monitoring, and adapting the environment to keep them safe and comfortable. I currently help care for my friend’s senior dog, who also has hip and dental issues, so I’m familiar with administering gentle support, maintaining comfort, and being attentive to mobility limitations and pain cues. In addition, I have experience caring for younger animals, including kittens and puppies around 12 weeks old. This has given me practice with high-energy care, feeding routines, supervision, and basic early-life behavior management. Overall, I’m comfortable working with both senior pets and young animals, and I adjust my care style based on each pet’s specific health, energy level, and personality needs. Pet care fits into my routine pretty easily because I currently have a part-time job with a very variable schedule. Since my shifts change from week to week, I’m generally flexible and available most days with some notice. This flexibility allows me to adjust around pet care responsibilities like feeding, walks, check-ins, or overnight stays when needed. I’m also used to planning my time in a way that ensures animals are consistently cared for, even on busier days, so I can reliably fit pet care into my weekly schedule. In my home, I would make sure any pet is cared for in a safe, comfortable, and supervised environment. While my apartment doesn’t have a backyard, there is a fenced-in area nearby where dogs can run, play fetch, and get exercise. I also have a car, so if the owner is comfortable with it, I can take the dogs to a dog park for additional enrichment and activity. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their routine as consistent as possible—feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care instructions are followed closely. I’m also very mindful of respecting the home itself. I was raised to always leave a place cleaner than I found it, so I make sure everything is kept tidy, organized, and exactly as I found it. Communication is also important to me, so I always update owners and let them know right away if anything seems off or if there are any concerns about their pet’s health, behavior, or well-being.
“Ashley did an absolutely fabulous job taking care of my sweet corgi girl nala while I was on vacation! It was my first time leaving her at someone else’s house for that long & ashley made me feel so comfortable with the process & I knew my sweetie would be taken care of to the fullest! She sent pics & chatted with me every day thru out the week & checked in with me on any changes ahead of time. 10000% recommend her & her boarding services, dog walking, etc.!!!!”
“Shoshana was so kind to my dog and was very reliable. Her warmth and love of animals was very apparent from our first meeting. I was able to go away with complete peace of mind knowing that my dog was being so well cared for.”
“Hannah was amazing! She took great care of our boy Cyrus. She was very good at communicating and sending pictures when we asked for updates. We felt very comfortable leaving our baby with her and we will definitely use her again in the future!”
About: Hi, I’m Brian! I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my family always had dogs and cats around the house, and it’s a tradition I’ve proudly continued into adulthood. Sadly, both of my beloved pugs passed away over the last few years. Right now, it's just me and my cat, Vader, so I would absolutely love to welcome a canine (or another feline) presence back into my home! I work at WSU and live a quiet, peaceful life here in Colfax. Because my home is a kid-free environment and I spend a lot of my time here, your pet will get plenty of focused attention, companionship, and love. I understand how hard it is to leave your pets, so I am committed to treating yours like family - providing a safe, comfortable, and fun home away from home. I’d love to chat and see if I’m the perfect fit for your pet! I work at WSU so it's a short commute each day, allowing me to spend more time at home. My weekday evenings are pretty quiet. I sometimes go out on the weekends but would be quite happy staying home if there is pet-sitting to do. I have a large fenced yard. I have a large linoleum dining and kitchen area that can easily be blocked off where messes are easy to clean up. I'm totally fine sharing my bed and furniture with a pet. It's a quiet, kid-free house well suited for even the most nervous dogs.
About: I have taken care of all animals from household pets, wildlife to farm animals for 30 years now. I have vet education and am cpr certified. I am currently a stay at home mom of two boys. I have open availability and the time and attention to watch your furbaby. Boarding is only on weekends due to husband working early during the week. I have a fenced back yard and a very enthusiastic fun furbaby of my own who will be a great companion to your pupper he is two and loves cats and dogs small to huge. I also have a cat who is his best friend and loves to help me look after any pet in need she is always offering to be a surrogate mother to any pet or human in need lol she's so sweet.

Cat caregivers near you - Estes
“She was amazing and super good to our cats. Changed their litterbox, water, and kept us updated on their condition. I highly recommend Hera because she goes above and beyond and treats the animals with respect.”
About: I have cared for our personal cat, Lucy. She was estimated to be 14 when we adopted her, and unfortunately she was only in our lives for a short time period, we provided end of life care as she was extremely overweight and had severe arthritis. Otherwise, I have cared for all age ranges and temperaments volunteering at the local shelter and working at a vet clinic.
“Morgan was great taking care of my two cats while I was out of the country. I loved the notes she left in the app and the photos sent easing my mind. I have absolutely no complaints! Would rebook for my next vacation!”
About: I’ve had years of experience since I was young taking care of stray cats (adults to kittens), and I have two cats of my own. I’m well versed in cleaning litter boxes, fountains, etc, and I have a lot of experience with wary cats that take awhile to warm up!
“Sara is AMAZING! She took care of my 3 cats for 10 days and did more than expected. She was prompt with stopping by everyday after her classes to feed and check on the cats. She spent time each evening giving them snuggles and pets. Cleaned their bowls and litter box and sent me photos everyday. I felt very comfortable knowing they were well cared for while I was gone and by the photos it looked my cats were very happy too 😊 She is a vet student at WSU so I also knew that if any of cats were sick, she would take good care of them and get them any needed medical attention. I cannot recommend her highly enough!”
“Jessica was great!! My cat Charlie had oral surgery the day before I had to go out of town, and she was totally willing to give her her antibiotics, even though Charlie was a little grumpy about it. Absolutely wonderful sitter!!!”
“Kasey was so great! My cats are very shy and timid and Kasey managed to get them all to make an appearance on the 2nd day, I was shocked. She communicated and sent pictures and really put my mind at ease while I was away. Absolutely would recommend her! She will be my go to from now on.”
About: I have been the go-to cat sitter for my neighbors and friends since I was young, and always make sure to live up to the cats’ expectations and standards. I like to keep everything clean, everyone fed promptly, and love figuring out their favorite toys, games, and places to be scratched. I have a wide range of experience with animals, but everything is about personal care and connection with cats.
“Peyton was just awesome with our 2 cats! The one that is really hesitant around people took a real shine to her. She did everything awesome and we were so glad to have her watch our boys”
“Best sitter for my two cats! Kaelyn did a great job communicating, keeping us updated, was very kind, and while we had a bit of a process for her regarding our cats, she did a great job following directions and taking care of everything. Would love to hire her again :)”

About: Since I was young, I've participated in 4-H. During that time, I learned how to care for many animals such as sheep, horses, chickens, cats, and dogs. Since I've raised livestock, I have experience administering medications when needed including pills, shots, and some bandage wrapping. I have pet sat for many years, during which I cared for a variety of species including, livestock (of all kinds), horses, poultry, dogs, cats, rabbits, reptiles and guinea pigs. I'm a full-time college student at University of Idaho. During the school year, I can see your pets in the mornings and afternoons/evenings. Pet care is a priority for me; we can make a schedule that works for your pets and for me. During weekends, I can do more visits and walks throughout the day. Need something more during the week? Feel free to reach out and see if I can make something work between classes! To care for your pets in their home I familiarize myself with the space as quickly as possible in order to ensure a smooth transition after you leave. Once you're gone, I spend time with your pets to keep them happy and entertained. I review all provided instructions to ensure the best possible care for your animals, including any timing for food and medications. I'm happy to adjust my care style to fit individual pets as needed.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs ever since I was a young girl. Nieghbor’s, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and simply give their pet attention. I have had pet my entire life and have loved every single one. I have dog sat many of my neighbors and family friends dogs and cats, if it’s just letting them out to go to the bathroom or staying with them the entire week. Being there when a pet is in need is something I can always do. I just graduated so I have tons of free time to take pets on walks, pet sit, and play with. I am super flexible and super easy to contact. I have a fenced off one acre years for any pet to enjoy and play with my black lab. I have room for a kennel and also have a kennel if needed.
“Chelsea was incredible. Due to a medical emergency, we needed a long term sitter at short notice. Chelsea stepped up to the plate, came to the house to collect my two cats and took great care of them for a full six weeks. She stayed in touch with pictures and updates. We are so grateful for her help and support!”
“Tidy and conscientious, Emily was very good about contacting us and keeping us updated. She actually saw our skittish kitties, which tells us she had a gentle manner. This was the first time we left our cats and all went well. I recommend Emily as a cat sitter and would book her services again.”
About: I have worked in a veterinary clinic setting as a CVA where I learned skills such as cat behavior, cat pre/post surgical care, and cat handling. Additionally, I am a proud owner of 2 cats, one of which I have owned/raised since she was 3 months old. I have been living with cats for the past 3 years and love my feline friends!

Perfect for high energy dogs - Estes
“Tig is always so eager to go and hang out every time I drop him off and very tired when I pick him up. I can tell he just has a blast and I love that I don't have to worry about if he's safe or being enriched!”
About: My experience with dogs has ranged from personal ownership: (raised with two mixed breeds, and owned a WHIPPET for fourteen years), to boarding dogs, to working at a doggie daycare, and working for a dog walking company. Currently I am a stay at home mom to three kids- so I am home most of the time, including weekends. If I do step out, for errands, appointments, and such, I will absolutely make sure your pet has had enough walks/potty breaks. We have a fenced yard, and a great neighborhood for walking. My family, and I will work consistently to make sure your pooch feels comfortable, and loved. That said, for safety reasons I choose not to share photos of my kids on my profile page- regardless, they are great with dogs! My time is flexible in that I can work around my families schedule to provide boarding for your pet(s). We look forward to meeting you/them! I can provide care for your dog(s), by following the schedule you have set for them. I love walking, and playing fetch with dogs! My kids especially love helping out with fetch. 😊 Pet care works easily with my daily, and weekly schedule, because I am a stay at home mom, and therefore home most of the time. In my home pets will be taken care of first and foremost with lots of love, (pets/snuggles). Secondly, pets will be taken care of by administering their daily needs of food, water, snacks, (if they have any), and meds, (if they have any).
“Stephanie did an awesome job with my dog. Definitely trust her again when I come back to town for work next time. She sent some photos mid day and a message letting me know how it was going. Couldn’t ask for anything more, you can tell she has a passion for pets. Thank you.”
About: I’ve taken care of a good amount of breeds from huskies to chihuahuas. I have loved every single one that it melts my heart every time i see them. I have a dog of my own and she’s a sassy silly lazy girl. I enjoy cuddling with dogs and just having fun with them. Going on walks, playing with toys, watching a movie and going through a roller coaster of emotions, i can do a lot with dogs! i can also ensure that i will provide as much goofy photos of possible if wanted (i will be taking because its funny and brings up the vibes) I work super early so I’m available for majority of the day. I’ll leave at the crack of the morning and come back in the morning still! i’m able to take all dogs out for a potty break in between work as well and just give them attention if that’s all they need! I treat my pets like my fur babies. they are my children so i talk to them as if i have teenage kids going through their moody phase. with other people’s dogs i can present my self calmly or energized depending on what they need. i love including them in everything if they want. like if they want to help me fold laundry, cook, clean, or just watch a movie then we are all doing it as a group.
“Alice takes such great care of my little guy! He absolutely loves coming to her house and she is so attentive to his needs and communicative. I can’t say enough good things about Alice and her pups!”
“Mikayla did awesome with my 75lb Pyrenees mix. We did a meet and greet the day before and my dog got into just about everything but Mikayla was so understanding. I will definitely be booking with Mikayla again!”
“Shoshana and her family were great. They sent pictures and reports that made us feel that Keeper was being well cared for. However, Keeper seemed nervous around the children and we think a household without children would be better for him.”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes and personalities for as long as I can remember. Friends, family and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and provide plenty of love to their pets, as well as working at the local animal shelter for a period of time. Whether it’s energetic puppies, mellow senior dogs or those with special needs. I understand that every dog has their own routine and personality and I pride myself on giving them the same care and attention they’d get from you. My goal is to keep tails wagging, paws happy, and pet parents worry free while you’re away. My goal is to keep your pets happy, healthy, and loved while you’re away, whether that means long walks, snuggle time, or play sessions in the yard. I have my own dogs and 2 cats so I’ve got the routine down pretty well. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have an unfenced yard and two friendly, well-socialized dogs to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed and will follow any routines or rules you provide to ensure consistency. I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family and strive for providing a safe, fun, and loving environment where they can relax and feel at home. I have two kiddos that are all about running the energy off as well so between them and the pets nobody is ever unattended outside.

“Hera was wonderful. Maggie-Roo had a great time on her walks. It's so great when one may attend an event confident that one's dog is receiving great and loving care. Thank you. Highly recommended.”
About: I had my own dog for 10 years before he passed. I occasionally foster for the Whitman county humane society so I have experience taking care of puppies and older dogs, as well as those who need medications. My availability is currently wide open and I would love to spend my time helping other people take care of their furry loved ones! I also have experience with different forms of leashes (i.e. gentle leaders, harnesses, etc.). I understand the importance of repetition for dogs and will do my best to keep to your schedules and the way you do things. Please let me know how I can help you and your pet! :) I am currently in between jobs at the moment so my schedule is wide open for the time being but will keep my calendar updated I live in a smaller apartment so it would be best for only dog at my place at a time. Will follow any rules in place for time spent at the client’s home.
About: I have had extensive experience caring for livestock animals, and have done some dog sitting and care here and there. About to graduate with an animal science degree this upcoming fall! I am currently working part- time as a veterinary assistant so I do have general veterinary care experience. I Have cared for my personal dogs, cat and horse and would love to give your furry friends some love !! I am currently a college student, so I have a fairly flexible schedule! Just shoot me a message and we can figure out the best schedule for both of us! I am willing to come to clients home to care for furry friends. Unfortunately our personal dog is a little too shy so bringing animals into our home is not currently an option. I can come for meals, and check in throughout the day or I can stay all day with your furry babies.
“I booked Morgan to help with my dogs post surgery. I was unable to walk without crutches. She walked them daily and did little things here and there that were probably no big deal to her but meant a lot for me! She was kind and easy to work with and my dogs absolutely love her!!”
“Awesome first walk! Kaelyn was very attentive to the puppers and their needs and patient with their quirks. My female dog was comfortable and even showed her belly for pats after, which she doesn’t always do with new people! Very much looking forward to having K be part of our regular routine!”
“He came to our first meeting with thoughtful questions about my dog's needs, energy level, and routine, which immediately told me he takes this seriously. My dog is very high energy, and he handles him like a pro every single time. What really sets him apart is how communicative he is! He sends tons of photos every visit and always keeps me in the loop. I never have to wonder how the walk went. He's also always on time, which matters more than people realize when you're counting on someone. I'd recommend him to anyone, but especially if you have a dog that needs more than just a quick lap around the block.”
About: I had a dog when I was a teenager and now that I have moved out I have a cat as well named Horchata. I also have experience taking care of rabbits and guinea pigs. Message me for my rabbit/guinea pig rate! Many family members rely on my expertise to watch their fur babies :) I am the Carmelita Spencer Foods Lab manager on campus which is a part time position and going to school full time but would really love to do something I’m passionate about on my off time like working with animals. My availability is open to anytime I am not at work. I am good at getting animals to listen and calm down if need be. I believe that animals are very in tune with tone and that is the main way they know if what they are doing is good or bad.
About: I have been pet sitting for most of my life as well as caring for my own animals at home. I have worked at, volunteered at, and fostered for dog and cat shelters as well as many other animals, and have volunteered and worked at a veterinary teaching hospital. You will not find someone more passionate or empathetic about animals of any and all shapes and sizes. When people weren’t there for me, my animals were, and I have vowed to be there just the same for them. I am a strong creature of habit, and love a good structured routine to my day. Feeding all of my animals is a heavy part of that, and the best part. I start and finish my days making sure everyone is fed, loved, and happy, and if they are then it is a good day. Being able to take a lunch break to visit more animals is an added bonus that I will look forward to all day. I always make sure to specialize care to the animals themselves, and mimic how their own parents care for them. If an animal needs more frequent visits, longer visits, extra play time, medications, specialized meal plans or supervised meals I will always accommodate to the best of my ability. I will never leave an animal until they are satisfied with my service.
About: I have had animals my whole life and grew up on a farm. I’ve house sat and pet sat for family friends since I was a little girl. I love all animals and giving them the proper support each one needs. I have a job at a coffee shop I only work some weekends at for a few hours. I’m open to work around your pets schedule. I don’t have a fenced yard and would prefer not to bring pets in my own home. I have pets at my own house and would prefer not to mix them.
About: I have had both dogs and cats in my home my whole life. I am currently a WSU Pre-Vet student. My world revolves around my pets, and I will make sure your pets feel the same. I attend classes at Washington State University but still have plenty of time for walks and snuggles. I am available for longer stays on the weekends or during the week if an overnight stay is okay. I always monitor my dogs while they are outside because I do not have a fenced yard. Neither of my dog's sleep in crates, but I am more than willing to enforce that if needed.
About: U of I student with flexible availability. I love to walk dogs, throw the ball, play tug of war. I have experience with a variety of breeds, sizes and temperaments. Flexible availability. I have at least a couple hours of availability every day, if not more. Just reach out and we can figure out a schedule that works for you. I will do everything I can to ensure your dog or cat is healthy, happy and safe. I strive to maintain a high level of accountability, transparency and respect.
About: I’ve grown up with animals of all kinds in my home. While I currently only have a cat, I’ve been the owner of several dogs, a couple snakes, a bearded dragon and I’m not afraid of really any type of animal. I have a pretty open schedule, single mom to a couple of boys and pet mom to one sweet cat. I love snuggling any animal. So I live in an apartment but very frequently go out to trails and parks with my kids, I would have no problem including your pet!
About: I’ve taken care of a variety of animals since I was young. Anything from guinea pigs, rabbits, dogs, cats, etc. My family has had a variety of dogs, so I have extensive experience in caring for dogs of all ages. I have taken care of senior dogs with special care required regarding seizures and numerous medications. I’ve also assisted in training for younger dogs for basic tricks and potty training. I’m currently a PhD student, so I’m on campus around half the week! Weekends are very open/flexible for me, and I’m also available in the mornings/mid-day/nights. I would generally keep pets separate from my own, aside from other cats. They’d have their own space to decompress, but they would still receive lots of love!
About: I’ve always been bless to deal with all the family animals. I was always the walker, feeder, trainer, and the one that gave baths for them. I am a u of I graduate and have a lot of extra time in my hands. I was a student athlete for the last 4 years and am still super active and would love to help dogs get their energy out. I am mainly doing this for the summer to earn a little extra money to help with my living situation. I have several animals of my own that ranch from dogs, horses, cows, and chickens. I will do my best to care for your animals needs! I have a place in Uniontown wa that has 5 acres that my dog loves to run on. I also have a barn with other animals so taking care of the needs that the animal may have I can do that. I am willing to come to Moscow, Pullman, Lewiston to help out your fur baby.
About: I have had countless house/petsitting duties since i was 12 years old. Friends, neighbors, family, and mutuals have all used me for reliable, quality animal care. Along with my personal gigs, I also have 4 years of experience working in a dog daycare/boarding facility, including running it while my boss is out of town. In my experience, I’ve taken care of young, old, scaled, feathered, tiny, huge…I’m confident I’ll be a fantastic caretaker for your furry companion(s). I am a 3rd year student at WSU. I have no other responsibilities besides lectures/labs, so all my free time will go to your pets, and I’m happy to discuss my schedule with clients upon meeting. Whatever your schedule is with your fur babies, I will do my best to imitate it. I will follow whatever instructions go along with your animal’s normal day-to-day routine. If any questions arise, I won’t hesitate to contact you to ensure all care is taken care of properly.
About: I am that lady who will cross a busy street just to pet your dog. I am moving on to Rover in an attempt to broaden my current client base of dog walking and house/pet sitting clients. I understand the need for a dog to wander, smelling each tree and finding new routes. I have been around dogs my entire life and have an automatic caretaking demeanor when faced with a furry lil friend. I was the lucky human to a wonderful pup named Georgia O'Keeffe for the last 12 years and unfortunately had to put her down in January 2026; please let me spoil your dog in honor of my best babe! My schedule is very flexible and I have a reliable car to get me there. Right now dog walking and sitting blend seamlessly around my other work. Pets communicate through their own signals, telling us what they need. It's up to me to get to know your pet by learning their behaviors and patterns. That way I can make sure they are getting the best care available. To me, this is not a hobby or side job to make some extra cash; I take animal care very seriously and have made it my profession so that I can spend my days pouring my love and energy into the animals around me.

“Allison has been walking my reactive pup, Bodi, for several weeks now. Because of Allison's gentle and calm demeanor, Bodi was comfortable with her right away. She has experience with reactive dogs and listened attentively to my specific instructions on how I manage Bodi's reactivity. She applies her experience, intuition and knowledge of dog body language to keep him under threshold. Allison is a treasure and I wish she could be Bodi's life-long dog walker!”

“Melissa and her family were great! Provided updates, pics while we were away, which are much appreciated. A seamless drop off and pickup, too. Hoping our dog can stay with Melissa in the future and definitely recommend.”
“Courtney and her family loved my dogs almost as much as I do. Your dogs will be well cared for by Courtney and her family. I actually felt bad about taking my dogs from her kids when I left. They had all bonded during the stay. It was so sweet.”
“Amany was amazing! She was so flexible, as she agreed to a last minute booking with my pup. She also responded quickly and answered all my questions. My pup was so spoiled during the stay. He went shopping and was definitely part of the family during the stay. He was so tired from all the play time and extra attention, he fell asleep in the car on the way home. I will definitely use Amany again!”
“I was nervous about boarding my fur babies (3 of them) but Stephanie was so sweet with them as soon as we got to her house. Her home is set up for your four legged family. She sent video of them and let me know they were adjusting well. We will definitely be asking her to board our four legged babies the next time we go out of town and can't take them with us!”
“Mikayla is absolutely amazing! I don’t have enough kind/positive words to describe our experience. We boarded our 2 dogs with her for just under a week. One of our dogs is very scared of strangers, but Mikayla had him warmed up and part of the family in just a couple of days! I was so impressed and glad to know that both my babies were taken care of and loved just as they are at home (if not more!). Thank you, Mikayla!”
About: I have been taking care of animals since I was 10. I have cared for a blind senior cat as well as a cat with hip problems, which required patience, close monitoring, and adapting the environment to keep them safe and comfortable. I currently help care for my friend’s senior dog, who also has hip and dental issues, so I’m familiar with administering gentle support, maintaining comfort, and being attentive to mobility limitations and pain cues. In addition, I have experience caring for younger animals, including kittens and puppies around 12 weeks old. This has given me practice with high-energy care, feeding routines, supervision, and basic early-life behavior management. Overall, I’m comfortable working with both senior pets and young animals, and I adjust my care style based on each pet’s specific health, energy level, and personality needs. Pet care fits into my routine pretty easily because I currently have a part-time job with a very variable schedule. Since my shifts change from week to week, I’m generally flexible and available most days with some notice. This flexibility allows me to adjust around pet care responsibilities like feeding, walks, check-ins, or overnight stays when needed. I’m also used to planning my time in a way that ensures animals are consistently cared for, even on busier days, so I can reliably fit pet care into my weekly schedule. In my home, I would make sure any pet is cared for in a safe, comfortable, and supervised environment. While my apartment doesn’t have a backyard, there is a fenced-in area nearby where dogs can run, play fetch, and get exercise. I also have a car, so if the owner is comfortable with it, I can take the dogs to a dog park for additional enrichment and activity. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their routine as consistent as possible—feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care instructions are followed closely. I’m also very mindful of respecting the home itself. I was raised to always leave a place cleaner than I found it, so I make sure everything is kept tidy, organized, and exactly as I found it. Communication is also important to me, so I always update owners and let them know right away if anything seems off or if there are any concerns about their pet’s health, behavior, or well-being.
“Ashley did an absolutely fabulous job taking care of my sweet corgi girl nala while I was on vacation! It was my first time leaving her at someone else’s house for that long & ashley made me feel so comfortable with the process & I knew my sweetie would be taken care of to the fullest! She sent pics & chatted with me every day thru out the week & checked in with me on any changes ahead of time. 10000% recommend her & her boarding services, dog walking, etc.!!!!”
“Shoshana was so kind to my dog and was very reliable. Her warmth and love of animals was very apparent from our first meeting. I was able to go away with complete peace of mind knowing that my dog was being so well cared for.”
“Hannah was amazing! She took great care of our boy Cyrus. She was very good at communicating and sending pictures when we asked for updates. We felt very comfortable leaving our baby with her and we will definitely use her again in the future!”
