“Jennifer was absolutely amazing! She told me that they were so comfortable with Bino, that he slept in the bed with her and her husband. I will definitely use her again! She and her husband absolutely loves fur babies!”

“We used Heidi for this first time over the 4th of July and it went amazing! she took care of him like he was her own. Kept him on his schedule and sent constant updates on how he was doing. It allowed us to relax on our family trip knowing our fur family member was being well taken care of. We would absolutely use her again! Thank you Heidi!!”

“Kendra was great! She kept me updated and sent pictures the whole time. This was the first time I’ve used a dog sitter and I will absolutely use Kendra the next time I need someone to keep my baby.”

“I left my older german shepherd Apollo with Roy for a week and it was a great experience! He gave me updates, gave him his medicine as instructed and took great care of him. If I needed a dog sitter again he would be my first choice!”

“Great experience from start to finish! Cameron was welcoming and easy to communicate with prior to the boarding as it was up in the air the specific dates we needed for Blue. Cameron sent us pictures and even videos of Blue while we were away which was extremely nice as this was the first time Cameron kept Blue. We really appreciate Cameron and will request her again when we’re away!”

About: Really any animal for me makes me happy I don't care if it's dog,cat,farm,reptile anything I enjoy keeping busy and animals do that for me I have 2 dogs 3 cats I've had farm animals before. I just like having something to do. I don't like sitting at home because I get bored I'm hoping to use this opportunity to walk doggies and get exercise for both of us just get out of the house in general. I'm available anytime after 630am till late in the evening. I am available at most times of the day. Just let me know if I can help you out. I live on 5 acres. I have a small fence area attached to my house where no other animals are. I would care for your pets as they're my own. I have never had issues with my pets not getting along with any dogs and mine can always be in a separate area if need be.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs basicly all my life. I currently have an Australian Shepherd that is five years old. He is good with other dogs. He has separation anxiety, so I know how to take care of that as well. I work full-time at the University. I go on daily walks with my own dogs. I’m pretty free after work. You’re dog will feel at home:) I have a fenced in yard and I live in a house, so I have plenty of space for your pet. I also make sure that they get plenty of exercise.
“Thank you so much for taking such great care of Blackie! It was such a relief to get your updates and know Blackie is in good hands. I will definitely call you next time we go out of town!”

About: I have had a love for animals my whole life. Starting in 2008, I got a certificate in Veterinary Assistant and worked in a clinic for about 3 years. Taking a break, I joined the Army, serving 3 years active duty, then dropping down to the Reserves, where I currently continue to serve totaling about 14 1/2 years so far. My husband is active duty Army as well. At our last duty station I started my degree for Veterinary Technician, which I continue to complete and also worked at Banfield for 2 1/2 years. I take my dog on walks almost daily. I currently am a stay at home mom, also an Army Reservist. Lots of time currently. I do plan on looking for a part time job in a veterinary clinic in the fall. I have one dog who is 9 and we have a good size backyard. My dog is currently kennel trained for when we are not home so I’m okay with kenneling your pet if needed.
“Our dog was very well taken care of at Kelsey’s while we were out of town. She made sure to send pictures and videos and we could tell that our dog was having a great time there! She will be our go-to any time that we need a sitter for our dog. Highly recommend!”

“We appreciate Jill and Aaron so much! They were so cooperative with us when our scheduling was all out of whack. Such kind and friendly people. We received constant videos of our pup and they let us know how he was everyday! This was our first time boarding with them but it will definitely not be our last! Thank you guys so much”

“Giovanni was amazing with my cat, T'Challa. She sent updates with photos. I was put at ease when I met her and felt good about her caring for T'Challa. When needed again, I will definitely rebook.”

“Peyton was excellent. Very easy to book, quick to respond, and super smooth handover of our dog, Stella. Usually Stella gets nervous when we drop her off at a sitter's, but I think Peyton's confidence in just taking her leash and leading her into her house made Stella comfortable following her. We got daily updates and photos, and Stella seemed happy in every picture. I will definitely be using Peyton's services again (well, at least trying to, as I already went to book again, and she was already booked up, so obviously I'm not the only one who feels this way!) Fantastic experience!”

Holly is such a gentle soul!!! I am blessed to have found her.”

About: I have loved cats, and any animals since I was little. I had an orange tabby cat growing up when I got him at 8. Eventually grew up around a ragdoll for 6 years. Then when I moved out I got my own black cat named drea and she’s currently 4 months old. They’ve always been my snuggly babies, so I’m very used to being around them and all the care they need!!

About: When it comes to cats, I deeply understand their body language, unique routines, and subtle cues. Cats naturally warm up to me because I respect their boundaries—whether they are fiercely independent and need their space, or complete cuddle bugs who thrive on affection. You can count on me to keep their daily routines consistent, maintain spotless litter boxes and feeding areas, and give them plenty of love and playtime whenever they ask for it.
About: I’ve taken care of animals ever since the age of 13. My aunt had 3 dogs so whenever I could I would watch them and stay there for a week at a time when she was out of town I fed them walked them even had to bathe them when they got into dirt. From then on my aunt gave other people my number and information and I started animal sitting all kinds of creatures ! It’s my favorite thing to do ! I’m currently working full time and I have a 2 year old little boy. I am extremely flexible and able to do any and all jobs ! So unfortunately have a German Shepard who isn’t around dogs all the time so I would have to work in my clients home. I am a very clean and neat person I never leave a mess. If I was to stay in your home I would clean all the dishes and wipe down counters and vacuum if you’d like all while talking care of your fur baby.
About: I have always been the one to volunteer to pet sit just because I am an animal lover. I have 2 presa canarios that just turned 5 and a cat That turned 9! I typically let my dogs out 3x per day and can let someone elses babies out between 6-8am / 8pm-1am weekdays. I have open availability on the weekends as needed I do not have a backyard so I take my dogs on 20-30 minute walks because theyre bigger. We practice some commands 2-3x/ wk. Cats are more laid back and let you know when they want interaction.

About: I have years of experience caring for cats through my own pets, stray and rescue cats, PetSmart experience, and my current work at a veterinary clinic. I’m comfortable with cats of different ages, personalities, and care needs, including shy cats, senior cats, special-needs cats, and cats that need owner-provided medications given as directed. I understand that cats can become stressed in new environments, so I focus on keeping them comfortable, giving them space when needed, and letting them come to me at their own pace. I’m also comfortable with feeding routines, litter box care, basic grooming, nail trims, and closely monitoring their eating, drinking, bathroom habits, and overall behavior.
“Hailee was the best! She was very prompt in getting back with me when I requested her to come and set with my two goldendoodles. She drooped in three times a day with our girls for several days and she was always on time. She played, fed, watered and loved them. She also was so good about sending pictures and letting me know how my girls were doing. Everything was very clean when I came back home. I highly recommend her and I will be using her again.”

About: A little about me! My friends and family call me the animal whisperer, the minute I meet any animal it’s like we form an instant bond of mutual trust. I have grown up surrounded by mainly dogs, cats and snakes. I love playing inside/outside with my pets 24/7. Hiking, running, swimming or exploring/walking, if your babies love to adventure I’m here for it! I rescued and trained to service level both my cat and Belgian Malinois. I have taken care of my friends and family’s pets my entire life, trusting me to give their pets a little pet staycation while they’re on vacation. I am from Southern California, I’ve been mainly pet/house sitting and doing drop ins in the Sango area for about a year now. I have a lot of experience with all types of breeds, especially the dominant ones. I have had 5 bully/pitbulls. I also study animal behaviors to better understand and communicate for their wellness. To ease your stress/worries, your babies will be in knowledgeable, loving hands. I can dedicate as much time as you/they need to your babies. I freelance, doing a few different types of jobs but they normally do not overlap or cause me to be away from home/your home for longer than a couple to a few hours. I am a very active person, I do hybrid training everyday that includes street/trail running and weights/calisthenics. I normally do this early in the morning for 1-3 hours. If I’m not with your babies, I’m at my house a couple times throughout the day to care for my babies then I’m back at yours! I care for your pets at your home, I can stay or go as long as you’d like, keep them outside playing or inside- everything is your preference. I’d love to do whatever makes you feel most comfortable. As far as your home, if there’s anything you need me to do please let me know! I will do little things that I see here and there such as, bringing in any packages, cleaning up and taking out trash.

“Kayla was amazing! I needed a sitter very last minute and she was perfect. She was prompt in answering the booking request and any messages. She took amazing care of my crazy pups and made sure to keep me updated on how they were doing and made sure everyone ate and went potty. Will 100% be using her again!”
About: I have over three years of experience working in a veterinary clinic and dog shelter. I have three dogs of my own named Toast, CJ and Cooper. In addition to my boys I have one girl cat named Argent (Argie). I have had experience with medically complex dogs that have seizures, autoimmune disorders, complex eye issues and more. Owning exotic animals and horses has also been a passion of mine for over six years. If you can keep it as a pet, I have experience with it! I am available for select holidays, weekends, and overnight stays (subject to change). I have a part time job during the week which leaves my availability to only on weekends. Animals thrive on routine so I like to keep your pet(s) routine as close to normal as possible. I will send routine pictures and check ins while I am with your pet.

“This was my first time using Rover. I was a bit nervous but Kendra was great. She had me introduce my dog, Leo, to her dogs through the fence before bringing Leo inside the fence. The dogs interacted great. Kendra also sent me a picture of Leo letting me know things were going well. It's great to be able to get away and not have to worry about you pet. Thanks Kendra!”

About: With over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for animals, I bring compassion, reliability, and deep understanding to every pet I care for. Previously, I've spent 6 years working with a Humane Society, gaining extensive experience with dogs and cats of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. This role strengthened my skills in animal behavior, stress reduction, medication administration, special-needs care, and recognizing health concerns early. Through this work, I’ve cared for everything from energetic puppies and kittens to senior pets and animals recovering from illness or trauma. I’m especially comfortable with: Dogs and cats of all sizes and breeds, Shy, anxious or energetic pets. Senior pets and special-needs care Medication administration (oral & topical) Basic training reinforcement and enrichment. My goal is always to provide a safe, calm, and loving environment so pets feel secure and cared for while their owners are away. I treat every animal as if they were my own and pride myself on clear communication and dependable care. I'm a stay at home mom and I homeschool. I am flexible with my day to day life and ready to accommodate to the needs of your pet. I have 5 dogs, 2 cats, a parakeet and a small hobby of caring for 3 goats and 7 chickens daily. So animal care is not a issue with my household. I have a fenced in yard which we utilize everyday. I have 5 dogs with different needs. I have 2 senior chihuahuas and a toy poodle, they enjoy their time snuggled on the couch watching TV. Or playing with small toys around the house. I also have a German Shepherd and a Husky. Both are high energy dogs, so they love going for walks, having playtime in the yard or working their minds with different enrichment toys or basic training. They all love other dogs, and are accepting to sharing their home.
About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is the kindness and patience I bring to every pet I care for. I truly understand that every dog is unique, whether they’re a bouncy puppy learning the ropes, a senior dog needing gentle care, or a shy pet who just needs a little extra love to feel safe. I approach every pet with compassion, making sure they feel at ease and cherished in my care. From creating a nurturing routine to sending heartfelt updates to owners, I treat every furry friend like they’re part of my own family. Their happiness and comfort are always my top priorities. Lo que me distingue como cuidadora de mascotas es la amabilidad y la paciencia que le brindo a cada mascota que cuido. Entiendo verdaderamente que cada perro es único, ya sea un cachorro saltarín que está aprendiendo a comportarse, un perro mayor que necesita cuidados suaves o una mascota tímida que solo necesita un poco más de amor para sentirse segura. Trato a cada mascota con compasión, asegurándome de que se sienta a gusto y querida bajo mi cuidado. Desde crear una rutina de cuidado hasta enviar actualizaciones sinceras a los dueños, trato a cada amigo peludo como si fuera parte de mi propia familia. Su felicidad y comodidad son siempre mis principales prioridades. 🐶🐱❤️ Pet care is an integral part of my daily and weekly routine. I make sure to set aside dedicated time to care for pets, whether it’s morning walks, midday play sessions, or evening cuddles. Each day starts with planning to ensure pets have everything they need, from meals and playtime to exercise and companionship. I adapt my schedule to fit the specific needs of each pet, whether that means flexible times for potty breaks, feeding, or quiet time for older dogs. On a weekly basis, I create a routine that maintains a pet’s consistency and comfort while making sure to have time for new activities and learning opportunities for puppies or energetic dogs. Pet care isn’t just a job—it’s a fulfilling part of my day that brings me joy and allows me to build strong bonds with each animal I look after. El cuidado de mascotas es una parte integral de mi rutina diaria y semanal. Me aseguro de reservar un tiempo específico para cuidar de las mascotas, ya sea con paseos matutinos, sesiones de juego al mediodía o abrazos por la noche. Cada día comienza con una planificación para asegurarme de que las mascotas tengan todo lo que necesitan, desde comidas y tiempo de juego hasta ejercicio y compañía. Adapto mi horario para satisfacer las necesidades específicas de cada mascota, ya sea con horarios flexibles para ir al baño, alimentarlas o momentos de tranquilidad para los perros mayores. Cada semana, creo una rutina que mantiene la consistencia y la comodidad de la mascota, al mismo tiempo que me aseguro de tener tiempo para nuevas actividades y oportunidades de aprendizaje para los cachorros o los perros enérgicos. El cuidado de mascotas no es solo un trabajo, es una parte gratificante de mi día que me brinda alegría y me permite construir vínculos fuertes con cada animal que cuido. When caring for pets at a client’s home, I make their safety and comfort my top priorities. I start by getting familiar with their daily routine, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, and any special needs or preferences. I ensure the home is secure by checking for potential hazards and making sure doors and gates are properly closed. During walks or play sessions, I stay attentive to keep them safe from traffic, other animals, or any unexpected situations. I provide interactive play, walks, and plenty of affection to keep pets engaged and happy. If any special care is needed, like administering medication or following a specific diet, I make sure to follow the owner’s instructions exactly. Building trust with both the pet and their owner is important, so I keep communication open with regular updates and photos. My goal is to create a comforting environment where pets feel at ease and loved, allowing their owners to feel confident and relaxed while they’re away. Cuando cuido mascotas en la casa de un cliente, hago de su seguridad y comodidad mis principales prioridades. Empiezo por familiarizarme con su rutina diaria, incluidos los horarios de alimentación, las pausas para ir al baño y cualquier necesidad o preferencia especial. Me aseguro de que la casa sea segura comprobando si hay peligros potenciales y asegurándome de que las puertas y portones estén bien cerrados. Durante los paseos o las sesiones de juego, me mantengo atenta para mantenerlos a salvo del tráfico, otros animales o cualquier situación inesperada. Ofrezco juegos interactivos, paseos y mucho cariño para mantener a las mascotas ocupadas y felices. Si se necesita algún cuidado especial, como administrar medicamentos o seguir una dieta específica, me aseguro de seguir exactamente las instrucciones del dueño. Generar confianza tanto con la mascota como con su dueño es importante, por lo que mantengo la comunicación abierta con actualizaciones y fotos periódicas. Mi objetivo es crear un entorno reconfortante donde las mascotas se sientan a gusto y amadas, lo que permite que sus dueños se sientan seguros y relajados mientras están fuera.🐾
“The love Kelcey has for pets is amazing! I felt comfortable leaving Kali with her while I worked and ran errands. Kali was sooo tired when he returned home (that means he had a BLAST!). Thanks again Kelcey! Kali will be back! :)”

“I was able to meet Roy before my fur baby's extended stay and do a meet and greet. Roy is very professional and friendly. Even though Cavi is not crate trained and a bit much, Roy was able to put my fears at ease knowing that my fur baby would be taking care of. Definitely recommend Roy.”

About: My heart is open to all creatures, ensuring they feel loved, safe, and cherished in my care. Whether it’s through playtime, cuddles, or attentive care, I treat each pet with the same affection and dedication I would give to my own! I currently have ample time to efficiently care for your baby (or babies). Mornings begin with feeding and some outdoor play. Midday involves engaging in daily activities while keeping the pets entertained nearby. Afternoons are all about quality time and interactive play. Finally, evenings include dinner and a final play session, allowing everyone to wind down for a good night's rest—then we repeat! Caring for pets in my home and my clients’ homes involves a tailored approach based on their specific needs and the services I offer. I create a secure and comfortable space with plenty of toys, cozy spots, and outdoor access. In Clients’ Homes, I maintain the pet’s usual routine to minimize stress, following their feeding and play schedules. I ensure the home is safe by securing potential hazards and providing a comfortable space for the pet. I provide regular updates to the pet owner, sharing how their pet is doing.
About: As a dog mom myself, I know how hard it is to trust someone new with your beloved furry family member. When your dogs are in my home, they are a part of our family. I can’t remember a time in my life where I didn’t have a dog, and now that I’m an adult with my own, I’m dedicated to providing the best care for my daycare and boarding clients. Because my husband and I both work from home, someone is always available to supervise your babies. A typical day at our home looks like this: 630a - Wake Up 730a - Short Morning Walk 8a to 930a - Independent play & relax 930a - Breakfast 10a to 12p - Independent play, potty breaks as needed 12p - Lunch 1p to 4p - Independent play, potty breaks as needed 4p to 530p - Outdoor play 530p - Dinner 7p - Evening Walk 8p - Settle Down With a flexible work schedule, I have the ability to adjust my schedule to the dogs in my care. Our home is 1200 sq ft with over a quarter acre of 6ft privacy fenced backyard space. Our fence is thoroughly checked weekly for any holes, loose boards, and other defects that could lead to escapees. All doors, except for our dedicated office space, are closed during the day, but dogs have access to our shared family spaces. While we do not have a doggy door for backyard access, we do potty breaks approx every two hours or as needed. In our home, it is myself, my husband, and our dog Jessie, who is friendly to all. Although she is friendly, we do pick up all toys, chews, and food when other dogs are in our home. That being said, dogs will also be fed separate regardless of personality simply because dogs act different in homes that are not theirs. We find that this keeps both our dog and yours safe in our home.
“Jennifer is just the best! She is so loving and kind, and has a heart of gold. She regularly goes above and beyond for my sweet boy and me, and she’s like family now. We just love her and her family to pieces! I wish there were more people in the world like them.”

About: Hey pups and parents! I have hands-on experience working with dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to gentle seniors.

No matter how busy my schedule gets, I always make time to care for your pets. I ensure they’re fed, comfortable, and given the love and attention they deserve every day. Their well-being is a natural part of my routine, and I’m committed to keeping them happy and healthy In my home, every dog is treated with gentle care, patience, and consistent attention. I make sure they feel safe, loved, and part of the family—from providing a clean and comfortable space to offering regular meals, playtime, and affection. Their well-being is always a priority, and I take pride in creating a peaceful, caring environment where they can relax and thrive.

About: I’ve worked with animals for the last few years. It’s my passion! I’d love to take care of you’re fur baby like it’s my own. I’m a full time stay at home mom and also have 2 dogs of my own. I would have plenty of time to care for your pup. I have a fenced in yard and 2 dogs of my own. We are outside most of the day playing if it’s nice out side.
About: What sets me apart is that I truly treat every dog like family. I have three sweet, well-loved pups of my own—a playful 1-year-old shepherd husky, a gentle 5-year-old black lab— & the sweetest 1 year old Corgi, so I understand different energy levels, personalities, and care needs. I’ve raised 2 of them since they were puppies, which gave me hands-on experience with puppy training, routines, and positive reinforcement, as well as providing calm, patient care for more mature dogs. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness always come first, whether that means structured playtime, relaxing cuddle time, or keeping routines consistent to reduce stress. I’m attentive, dependable, and genuinely love building trust with both pets and their owners so you can feel completely at ease while you’re away. I am currently a full time stay home dog mama. My entire days revolve around my fur babies since my schedule is completely open. I’ve loved dogs my whole life and I’ve recently moved to the area from Colorado and went from an apartment to a house with a big yard so most of my days are spent outside with the fur babies. I do have a very large fully fenced in backyard and my dogs pretty much come in & out as they please. They have a large water bowl outside that is always filled and I spend time working with them and giving treats throughout the day as well.

About: I've taken care of dogs of all ages and personalities since I was 10. Neighbors, friends, and family rely on me to feed, walk, play with, and check in on their pets. I'm patient, responsible, and comfortable with energetic pups, shy dogs, and seniors who need a gentler pace. Your pet's safety, routine, and happiness always come first. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I'm active, organized, and make time every day for walks, play, and check-ins. With my flexible schedule, I can reliably stop by for visits, walks, or extended care. I prioritize keeping pets on their normal routine so they feel comfortable and cared for while you're away. I take safety and trust seriously in every home I enter. I follow your pet's routine exactly as you describe it, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I keep a close eye on doors, gates, and leashes, and I always make sure pets feel calm and comfortable. Whether your dog is energetic, shy, or a senior who needs a slower pace, I adjust to their needs and treat them with patience and care.

“Holly came over for a meet and greet + walked my pups the following day. She was so kind + sweet with the dogs. I’ve booked with her for future walks and would refer to anyone looking for a dog walker!”

About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life, i’ve had multiple dogs ranging from 5 pounds to 200 they are all sweet baby’s and deserve a little walk with nature.

If I was to stay in your home I would clean all the dishes and wipe down counters and vacuum if you’d like all while talking care of your fur baby.
“Ayla was a wonderful sitter and walker! She even brought an extra food bowl for my pup when I told her I only had his water bowl! She was attentive, on time and lovely to work with! Thank you Ayla??”

About: I've cared for dogs big and small since I was eleven. I've watched pets, dogs and cats, for my neighbors and family who needed a caregiver while they're out. I've given the animals baths, walked them around their neighborhood, kept them fed and cared for, and I've stayed the night at my relatives for their dogs. They're typically calm and happy around me, despite separation anxiety. I love animals more than most people! I have full open availability with no other pressing school or work obligations. Sitting and dog walking fits perfectly into my routine as a very active person who needs a lot of walking and stimulation myself. It depends on what the client has provided for me at their home and what they have instructed me to do. I'll take them outside or keep them in per the owners' requests.
About: I've taken care of all kinds of animals, grew up on a farm, and currently live on one. I currently work with horses. I quit nursing to do something I love and work with animals. If I cannot give your animal the care I would expect mine to get for some reason, I won't take the job. I currently work with horses every day. I live on a farm where we have goats 🐐, horses 🐎, chickens 🐔, a pig 🐖, cats 🐈, dogs 🐕, a rabbit 🐇, and a guinea pig so I'm no stranger to animals. I care for my clients pets as if they are my own. If my scheduling conflicts with their care, I will simply turn the job down because it's just not fair to them. I'm not really about leaving them locked up. I enjoy playing with them, walking them, and getting to know their personalities.
About: I have over three years of experience working in a veterinary clinic and dog shelter. I have three dogs of my own named Toast, CJ and Cooper. In addition to my boys I have one girl cat named Argent (Argie). I have had experience with medically complex dogs that have seizures, autoimmune disorders, complex eye issues and more. Owning exotic animals and horses has also been a passion of mine for over six years. If you can keep it as a pet, I have experience with it! I am available for select holidays, weekends, and overnight stays (subject to change). I have a part time job during the week which leaves my availability to only on weekends. Animals thrive on routine so I like to keep your pet(s) routine as close to normal as possible. I will send routine pictures and check ins while I am with your pet.
About: I have always been the one to volunteer to pet sit just because I am an animal lover. I have 2 presa canarios that just turned 5 and a cat That turned 9! I typically let my dogs out 3x per day and can let someone elses babies out between 6-8am / 8pm-1am weekdays. I have open availability on the weekends as needed I do not have a backyard so I take my dogs on 20-30 minute walks because theyre bigger. We practice some commands 2-3x/ wk. Cats are more laid back and let you know when they want interaction.
About: A little about me! My friends and family call me the animal whisperer, the minute I meet any animal it’s like we form an instant bond of mutual trust. I have grown up surrounded by mainly dogs, cats and snakes. I love playing inside/outside with my pets 24/7. Hiking, running, swimming or exploring/walking, if your babies love to adventure I’m here for it! I rescued and trained to service level both my cat and Belgian Malinois. I have taken care of my friends and family’s pets my entire life, trusting me to give their pets a little pet staycation while they’re on vacation. I am from Southern California, I’ve been mainly pet/house sitting and doing drop ins in the Sango area for about a year now. I have a lot of experience with all types of breeds, especially the dominant ones. I have had 5 bully/pitbulls. I also study animal behaviors to better understand and communicate for their wellness. To ease your stress/worries, your babies will be in knowledgeable, loving hands. I can dedicate as much time as you/they need to your babies. I freelance, doing a few different types of jobs but they normally do not overlap or cause me to be away from home/your home for longer than a couple to a few hours. I am a very active person, I do hybrid training everyday that includes street/trail running and weights/calisthenics. I normally do this early in the morning for 1-3 hours. If I’m not with your babies, I’m at my house a couple times throughout the day to care for my babies then I’m back at yours! I care for your pets at your home, I can stay or go as long as you’d like, keep them outside playing or inside- everything is your preference. I’d love to do whatever makes you feel most comfortable. As far as your home, if there’s anything you need me to do please let me know! I will do little things that I see here and there such as, bringing in any packages, cleaning up and taking out trash.

I TREAT EVERY ANIMAL LIKE THEY ARE A PART OF MY FAMILY AND NOTHING LESS. I DO NOT DISCRIMINATE AGAINST ANY ANIMALS, ACCEPT SPIDERS, AND EVERY ANIMAL I COME IN CONTACT WITH, I GIVE ALL OF MY LOVE AND TIME TOO.

I WATCH EVERY ANIMAL WITH A CLOSE EYE, LIKE THEY ARE MY ACTUAL CHILDREN AND I NEVER LET THEM OUT OF SITE. I AM THE ONE YOU NEED. THANK YOU MUCH. I AM ALSO CERTIFIED IN CAT AND DOG CPR AND FIRST AID. I DO HAVE MY CERTIFICATION FROM AMERICAN RED CROSS AND CARRY MY CARDS WITH ME AS PROOF. NOTE: I CAN NO LONGER PROVIDE BOARDING IN MY HOME.
About: Attention to your animals needs, all animals are the most precious especially seniors. I’m comfortable with giving medication, highly communicative and flexible. I know basic grooming skills, most comfortable with any breed. I know how to deal with animals with separation anxiety or anxiety issues. I’m currently a stay at home dog mom & wife. I have plenty of time to care for your fur babies while you are away. I’m available anytime. I also have a background working in animal care, I use to work as a kennel technician and also worked under a veterinarian. Before we even book a sitting I love to meet with my clients and fur friends to see if we’re a perfect match. I always like to know what the dog/cat is like so I can build trust more easily

“We used Heidi for this first time over the 4th of July and it went amazing! she took care of him like he was her own. Kept him on his schedule and sent constant updates on how he was doing. It allowed us to relax on our family trip knowing our fur family member was being well taken care of. We would absolutely use her again! Thank you Heidi!!”

“Kendra was great! She kept me updated and sent pictures the whole time. This was the first time I’ve used a dog sitter and I will absolutely use Kendra the next time I need someone to keep my baby.”

“I left my older german shepherd Apollo with Roy for a week and it was a great experience! He gave me updates, gave him his medicine as instructed and took great care of him. If I needed a dog sitter again he would be my first choice!”

“Great experience from start to finish! Cameron was welcoming and easy to communicate with prior to the boarding as it was up in the air the specific dates we needed for Blue. Cameron sent us pictures and even videos of Blue while we were away which was extremely nice as this was the first time Cameron kept Blue. We really appreciate Cameron and will request her again when we’re away!”

About: Really any animal for me makes me happy I don't care if it's dog,cat,farm,reptile anything I enjoy keeping busy and animals do that for me I have 2 dogs 3 cats I've had farm animals before. I just like having something to do. I don't like sitting at home because I get bored I'm hoping to use this opportunity to walk doggies and get exercise for both of us just get out of the house in general. I'm available anytime after 630am till late in the evening. I am available at most times of the day. Just let me know if I can help you out. I live on 5 acres. I have a small fence area attached to my house where no other animals are. I would care for your pets as they're my own. I have never had issues with my pets not getting along with any dogs and mine can always be in a separate area if need be.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs basicly all my life. I currently have an Australian Shepherd that is five years old. He is good with other dogs. He has separation anxiety, so I know how to take care of that as well. I work full-time at the University. I go on daily walks with my own dogs. I’m pretty free after work. You’re dog will feel at home:) I have a fenced in yard and I live in a house, so I have plenty of space for your pet. I also make sure that they get plenty of exercise.
“Thank you so much for taking such great care of Blackie! It was such a relief to get your updates and know Blackie is in good hands. I will definitely call you next time we go out of town!”

“Our dog was very well taken care of at Kelsey’s while we were out of town. She made sure to send pictures and videos and we could tell that our dog was having a great time there! She will be our go-to any time that we need a sitter for our dog. Highly recommend!”

“We appreciate Jill and Aaron so much! They were so cooperative with us when our scheduling was all out of whack. Such kind and friendly people. We received constant videos of our pup and they let us know how he was everyday! This was our first time boarding with them but it will definitely not be our last! Thank you guys so much”

“Peyton was excellent. Very easy to book, quick to respond, and super smooth handover of our dog, Stella. Usually Stella gets nervous when we drop her off at a sitter's, but I think Peyton's confidence in just taking her leash and leading her into her house made Stella comfortable following her. We got daily updates and photos, and Stella seemed happy in every picture. I will definitely be using Peyton's services again (well, at least trying to, as I already went to book again, and she was already booked up, so obviously I'm not the only one who feels this way!) Fantastic experience!”
“Sacha was wonderful with our dog and accepted him to stay with her last minute, which we appreciated and was so helpful! Orvis loved every minute it looked like from all the pictures that Sacha sent. She kept us in the loop and let us know what Orvis was doing while he was there. We highly recommend Sacha for boarding your dog. She was wonderful!”

“Jennifer is the only person we've left our Pepper with and she's been our sitter/home boarder for a couple of years now. I don't ever want to have to find anyone else. Jennifer KNOWS Pepper and Pepper gets excited to go to see her. I never have to worry and get some great pictures, too!”

About: As a dog mom myself, I know how hard it is to trust someone new with your beloved furry family member. When your dogs are in my home, they are a part of our family. I can’t remember a time in my life where I didn’t have a dog, and now that I’m an adult with my own, I’m dedicated to providing the best care for my daycare and boarding clients. Because my husband and I both work from home, someone is always available to supervise your babies. A typical day at our home looks like this: 630a - Wake Up 730a - Short Morning Walk 8a to 930a - Independent play & relax 930a - Breakfast 10a to 12p - Independent play, potty breaks as needed 12p - Lunch 1p to 4p - Independent play, potty breaks as needed 4p to 530p - Outdoor play 530p - Dinner 7p - Evening Walk 8p - Settle Down With a flexible work schedule, I have the ability to adjust my schedule to the dogs in my care. Our home is 1200 sq ft with over a quarter acre of 6ft privacy fenced backyard space. Our fence is thoroughly checked weekly for any holes, loose boards, and other defects that could lead to escapees. All doors, except for our dedicated office space, are closed during the day, but dogs have access to our shared family spaces. While we do not have a doggy door for backyard access, we do potty breaks approx every two hours or as needed. In our home, it is myself, my husband, and our dog Jessie, who is friendly to all. Although she is friendly, we do pick up all toys, chews, and food when other dogs are in our home. That being said, dogs will also be fed separate regardless of personality simply because dogs act different in homes that are not theirs. We find that this keeps both our dog and yours safe in our home.
