JyZaree took excellent care of my senior dog. JyZaree communicated frequently. My dog got plenty of outdoor time and play time. My dog got along great with her dogs, which is important. I was quite pleased and I hope to be able to have JyZaree dogsit for us again, soon.

About: I’ve cared for pets for over 10 years and have experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I’m reliable, easy to communicate with, and genuinely love animals. I stick to your pet’s routine, give them lots of attention, and treat them like part of my own family while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable care and plenty of attention. I do my best to maintain your pet’s normal routine and will keep you updated with messages and photos throughout their stay. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. I take that responsibility seriously and treat every pet as if they were my own. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully and pay close attention to a pet’s individual needs, routines, and comfort level. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a quieter environment, I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and at home.

Kyle put us at ease about leaving our fur babies. All the pictures were amazing and we were kept up to date about everything. Kyle is highly recommended by us and I am so grateful for Kyle coming over and taking care of our pets.

Xinia was amazing to work with, she went above and beyond for us while we were out of town for the holiday weekend. We were super happy with her communication and with her care for our pups. Would definitely recommend and will book again!

About: have extensive experience caring for cats and understand that every cat has their own personality, routine, and comfort level. I have cared for cats from kitten age through adulthood, including feeding, litter box care, playtime, socialization, and monitoring changes in behavior or health. I’m patient with shy cats and know that some cats need time and a calm approach before they feel comfortable. I enjoy providing companionship, keeping their routine consistent, and making sure they feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I’m also comfortable following detailed instructions for feeding schedules, special routines, and medication needs when requested.

About: I have two dogs, a Golden Retriever (Nova) and a German Shepard (Blitz). I've had Nova since she was 8 weeks old and I've had Blitz since he was 3 months old. I've also grown up around dogs my whole life. I am a stay at home mom with a lot of time on my hands. I have plenty of time to take care of your fur babies. I have a fenced in yard with two dogs of my own to keep your fur babies happy. My dogs love playing with other dogs, we used to take them to the dog park (when we lived in Arizona) twice a week.

Xinia kindly came to the house a few days ahead of time to introduce herself to the hounds before our scheduled appointment. Xinia came to my home to let the dogs out for a potty break and to burn off a little energy on a day I had to leave for an extended period of time. She made certain they had water and sent pictures of her time with my hounds. I will definitely reserve with Xinia in the future!

About: I've worked with dogs for 7 years now. Helping family and friends with pet care and training as well as eventually branching out to occasionally taking dog training clients. I am currently studying with the International School of Canine Psychology and would love to make dog training and walking a full time business. I foster as well! I am currently studying with the ISCP and taking on private clients so I will be available friday, saturday, and sundays after 11am! In the near future, there will be more days available for services. As a walker, I ensure your dogs safety through gear checks to ensure harnesses or collars fit properly and to make sure the leash is properly attached. I also am very diligent and observant of my surroundings when I'm out with my personal dogs and client dogs. Safety is key! I will also bring a small backpack with water, a collapsible bowl, waste bags, and a small emergency first aid kit for dogs.

About: I have years of experience caring for pets and understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy looking after your furry loved ones while you’re away. I’m a registered nurse, which means I’m detail-oriented, responsible, and comfortable following specific care instructions. I’m happy to help with feeding schedules, routines, medications (if needed), and keeping you updated so you can have peace of mind. I offer loving, reliable care in your home, including drop-in visits, walks, feeding, playtime, and house checks. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, and I take the time to make them feel safe and comfortable. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I would love the opportunity to meet your pets and provide the dependable care they deserve! I offer flexible scheduling for pet care visits and can work with pet owners to find times that fit their pets’ routines. I am available for drop-in visits, feeding, litter box care, playtime, and companionship while owners are away. I understand how important consistency is for pets, so I make every effort to provide dependable care and keep owners updated with messages and photos during visits. I am available for scheduled daytime visits and can discuss specific needs, routines, and availability with each client. Your pets’ safety and your peace of mind are my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and specific needs so I can provide calm, dependable care. I care for pets by treating them with patience, kindness, and attention to their individual needs. I believe pets do best when they have a consistent routine, a safe environment, and plenty of love and companionship. I make sure pets are fed according to their owner’s instructions, have fresh water, a clean space, and time for play, attention, and comfort. I pay close attention to changes in behavior, appetite, bathroom habits, or energy levels so I can communicate any concerns quickly. With cats especially, I understand the importance of respecting their space, earning their trust, maintaining litter box routines, and providing gentle interaction based on their personality. As a registered nurse, I’m trained to pay close attention to details, follow instructions carefully, and recognize when something may not be right. I understand how important it is to communicate clearly and provide updates so you know your pets are safe and cared for. I treat every home with respect and every pet as if they were my own. I focus on creating a safe, comfortable environment where pets feel secure while their owners are away.
