Perfect for high energy dogs - Alger
“Amber is amazing! She was so accommodating when I was visiting the area and looking for someone to watch my dog VERY last minute. I felt comfortable leaving my dog with her for the night as I knew he was in good hands. Highly recommend her if you’re looking for someone to take good care of your pup!”
“We've taken our dog Lucy to Jerri a few times now, and she is just wonderful! A true dog lover. She is a great communicator and sends pictures and updates through out the day. She goes above and beyond what we could hope, and we know our pug is super happy when she is there! You can trust your furry baby with Jerri. She's great!”
“Lucie took great care of our pug Lucy. She kept us updated through out the day with messages and pictures. I felt really good about leaving our pug with Lucie because she is clearly an animal lover. She responded quickly to all of our messages and our pug was in good shape when we went to pick her up. I definitely recommend Lucie for pet care. She's great!”
“Sissy always does a great job with Yeti! Picking him up and dropping him off at the campground we’re staying at and watching him while we’re on a river tubing trip is so helpful and stress-free for us. We will continue to use Sissy anytime we’re vacationing in the area.”

Adventure-ready dog walkers - Alger
About: I have always had a love for animals and have three pups of my own. I am a stay at home mom and watch everyone’s dogs (and kids). We love going for walks and running around in the backyard! I am a stay at home mom so taking care of dogs would be my only job other than being a mom to my two children. We go for two walks a day and spend lots of time outside! In my home we have a fully fenced in yard for lots of running around and play time. When we are inside we have a doggie gate so that no dogs are running over the baby.
About: Hi! I'm Ashley, and I have over 10 years of experience caring for animals. I previously owned and operated Happy Tales Pet Care, a professional pet sitting and dog walking business serving families in the area. Caring for animals has always been a passion of mine, and I take pride in providing dependable, compassionate care that gives pet owners peace of mind. I have experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities, as well as cats, rabbits, and even a house pig! Whether your pet needs a walk or a drop-in visit while you're away, I will treat them like one of my own. I understand that every pet is unique, which is why I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and specific needs. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away so you can relax knowing they are in good hands. Although I no longer run my pet sitting business full-time, I'm excited to offer pet care services again this summer and reconnect with the community I previously served. I offer complimentary meet-and-greets for new clients and look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine, and I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide consistent drop-in visits and dog walks. I’m able to follow your pet’s normal routine closely, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special care needs like oral medication. My goal is to provide reliable, attentive care every visit. I provide care in the client’s home so pets can stay comfortable in their normal routine. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding, walks, playtime, litter box care, and oral medications or special diets when needed. I focus on keeping pets calm, safe, and well cared for, while respecting the home and maintaining a clean environment during each visit.
About: I have two dogs of my own, one raised from a puppy who is now 8 and a rescue that came to me as an adult but needed alot of help with anxiety and has high energy so I'm well rounded with dog care. I've spent my whole life around animals and I love having a friend to walk and play with and would love to fill my free time fulfilling your pets needs! I'm home during the day so I'll have plenty of time for your friend. I'm available for check-ins and walks between 9am-3pm. Most days any time after 3 I am available but will have two helpers who also love animals. My schedule is flexible so any concerns or adjustments can most likely be accommodated. I always carry spare bags and leashes so I'm prepared if I can't find your pets or their business happens in an inopportune place. My dogs are crate trained so I have no problem remembering to put them back after a visit if that's something you need.
About: I have managed a boarding facility for the last 8 years. I decided that our fur babies need a lot more attention. I have bathed pups, done nails, given meds including insulin, built bonds with fearful dogs with patience and time. I have always owned senior animals so I do well with our senior fur babies as well with gentle loving care. My life has evolved around pet care. I have worked 60+ hours a week at a boarding facility. So I can be available 24 hours a day to keep strictly to your pet care routine. Routines are important with our fur babies I will make sure your pups and cats are fed on time. Taken out regularly and clean up where ever they do potty. I will play with them outside or inside so they get both physical stimulation and love on them for the emotional and mental stimulation
