About: I treat every pet like family and understand that no two animals are the same. I have hands-on experience with puppies, senior dogs, and pets with special medical needs. I’m trained in administering oral and injectable medications, and I’m patient, consistent, and attentive to behavior cues. I’ve also raised my own pets and cared for high-energy breeds that need extra playtime and structure. Whether your dog needs gentle care or active engagement, I tailor each visit to their comfort level and routine. Caring for animals is a natural part of my everyday life. I work from home with a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets the attention and consistency they deserve. Whether it’s morning walks, midday playtime, or evening snuggles, I can easily adapt to your pet’s routine. I love being active and outdoors, so daily walks and check-ins are something I genuinely look forward to. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I focus on creating a calm, safe, and loving environment. In my home, pets have plenty of space to relax, play, and feel comfortable—plus lots of snuggles and attention throughout the day. I stick closely to their normal routine for feeding, potty breaks, and bedtime so they feel secure and at ease. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space with the same respect and care I’d want for my own. I follow all instructions closely, keep things tidy, and send regular updates with photos so you always know how your pet is doing.

“Alicyn was fantastic with Oakley! She sent pictures and updates. She has a fenced in backyard which is definitely a plus. I highly recommend her and will definitely reach out to her for future needs.”

“Alicyn was great! My cat was happy, healthy, and enthusiastic when I returned from more than a month away. She sent me pictures and updates and my cat was clearly having a great experience. I came home to full food and water bowls and a thriving cat. All seems to have gone very well and Alicyn achieved everything I wanted her to. Highly recommended - an excellent cat sitter!”

About: As a licensed mental health therapist 3/4ths of the year and a round-the-clock animal mom, I am a lover of all creatures. I believe everything that has breath deserves special, precise care and attention. Things you should know about me: • I grew up with various dog breeds, ranging from small dogs (Boston terriers) to large dogs (Boxers). • I have experience with high energy dogs, puppies, and geriatric dogs. • Your dog(s) is your family member and will be treated with respect, love and extreme care! • I have experience with animals who have chronic illnesses and or animals who need liquid or pill forms of medication. • Communication is key! I believe in giving my clients as many updates as they need when caring for their animals. Please reach out with any questions or concerns. I would love to hear your thoughts and connect with you. I get the summers off from my regular, full-time job. 😊 Because of this, I am able to watch your dog(s) or cat(s) whenever you need me to! My schedule is highly flexible. I will care for the animals in your home by following any instructions you provide me. No instructions are too specific. The more details the better. I want to keep any routines you have so your animal(s) feels comfortable, safe and happy.

“My dogs are so comfortable around Matthew. He walks them and I trust him with my dogs. Matthew communicates well with me.”

About: I grew up in a family that rescued dogs from the shelter, and now I am continuing that and taking in dogs of my own! I have 3 amazing dogs who are full of energy and love making new friends! I’m a full time stay at home mom so my time is always available for my doggos (and my tiny humans lol). I am available around the clock, any day you would need. I am able to take dogs out as often as possible and we fit 2 good walks in per day (weather permitted)! We get constant play time, but also time to relax from a busy day. I can provide anything from boarding service to just walking your furry friend while you’re at work! In my care your dogs will be well taken care of, as if they were my own!

“Kacy has so much knowledge and energy, were looking forward to using her again!”

About: I have a high-anxiety Shiba, so I understand how important patience and routine are. I take time to read each dog’s body language and adjust to keep activities calm, safe, and comfortable. I work full-time and am available after 4pm on weekdays. I also have flexible availability on weekends for walks, drop-ins, and extra time with your pup to make sure they get the care and attention they need. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities 🐕💛 I follow your routines closely, keep a calm and secure environment, and pay attention to behavior and stress signals to make sure your pet feels safe, relaxed, and cared for.
