“Clara did a fantastic job. My dod came back home happy and healthy. Clara's home and facilities are ideal and about the best you could ask for. I will definitely be bringing my dog back. :)”
“Julie took great care of our girl! You could tell they treated her like their own. We got several picture updates through the week which helped my son who missed her like crazy. Will definitely use again. Thank you!”
“Luke and his family went above and beyond caring for our Yogi. They have a large fenced in backyard and a host of other animal friends that Yogi fell in love with. Our Yogi has a tendency to pee on himself vs the ground and they bathed him before pickup. My toddler wouldn’t stop asking us to smell the dog on the way home. Thank you Luke and family! We will use you every time we need to head West to Wisconsin.”
“Beth was very sweet and friendly! Super helpful and happy to have my 13 year old girl Sage. Her house is clean and quiet and relaxing for my old girl, which I really appreciated! Very helpful that she has a fenced in yard. I will be definitely be sending Sage to Beth's again!”
“Hachi was super excited to be back again! He’s already comfortable and being happily greeted by Lexi was wonderful. Pamela will love and care for your Fur baby. Hachi was happy to be back because he has so much fun there. Pamela captures your fur baby’s fun time and share those cute pictures with you. We will be back all the time now, since we found such a happy and loving place to board him when needed. Thank you Pamela!”
“Deb did a wonderful job watching our mini-goldendoodle, Rosa for her first overnight. She kept us informed on how she was doing and made Rosa feel right at home. We are so lucky to have found someone as caring and responsible as Deb.”
“We had a great experience booking with Katherine. She was super friendly and our pups loved hanging out at their farm. Katherine sent us daily photos and kept us up to date on how they were doing. Willow, who is our sensitive pup, didn't want to leave and we could tell she was super happy with her stay. We will happily book with them in the future!”
“My dog had so much fun staying with Hanna while I was out of town. She sent lots of pictures and updates, and he always seemed so happy in the pictures and videos. She even got him to take his medications, which he is pretty stubborn about!”
“She was great, flexible and sent pictures of our dog while away! Her home is close to downtown Holland. Perfect location for our overnight stay in Holland. Thank you”
“Amanda is amazing and went above and beyond. Her home is adorable and clean. The photos she sent were stunning and captured Joey having a wonderful time. Joey came home very happy! We will definitely book with her again.”
“Our dogs came home exhausted and happy after their stay. 1 of our dogs can be a pain so an extra thanks for handling her for 2 full days while we had our wedding! Kaylee is the best!”
“Michael and his family provided excellent care for our dogs. We have a dog who is almost 17 years old and he was very attentive to his needs. Our younger dog made great friends with his dog, Chili. She had a great time. Michael provided excellent photos and daily communication. I highly recommend him.”
“Katherine and her family were AMAZING! They kept us posted and the communication was excellent. Our dog Nala had a really good time and definitely will bring her back to Katherine next time!!”
“Tasha provided excellent care and communication throughout our 4-month old puppy's 10-day stay at her home. We received daily updates, photos, and often, videos. She monitored his eating and elimination behaviors, as well as ensuring he got out and played with the other dogs on a daily basis. We were very pleased and would not hesitate to choose Tasha for our next boarding need.”
“This was our second time having Anne care for our dog at her house while we were out of town for a week. Anne is so personable and you can tell she really loves caring for these dogs and takes the trust families are giving her seriously. I appreciate how laid back Anne is, adjusting to each dog's own personality and quirks :) Our dog gets a little home sick but I always know Anne is loving on him as if he were her own and sends us updates and pictures frequently to put us at ease. We will definitely continue to book with Anne in the future!”

About: Hi! I’m Brooklyn, and I’ve always had a special love for cats. I understand that every cat has their own personality—some are playful and social, while others prefer quiet space and routine. I’m patient, gentle, and always let cats warm up to me at their own pace so they feel safe and comfortable.
About: 10 years dog owner and lifetime cat owner. Very patient and caring with animals. Good at following instructions if special care is needed. Not scared of large dogs. I work part time from home so my schedule is pretty flexible when it comes to pet sitting walks or what ever the job requires. I have two large dogs Rottweiler and Pitt Rottweiler mix and three cats. Dogs are cat friendly. Large yard and crate is available upon request if needed.
About: Hi, I’m Katie! 🐱❤️ I’m a lifelong animal lover and experienced pet caregiver who understands that every cat has their own personality, routine, and comfort level. Whether your cat is a social butterfly who wants lots of attention or a shy kitty who prefers to observe from a safe distance, I’ll meet them where they are. I’m happy to provide feeding, fresh water, litter box care, playtime, cuddles, and plenty of companionship while you’re away. I know how much peace of mind comes from knowing your pets are being cared for in their own home, surrounded by their familiar smells, spaces, and routines. I’ll follow your instructions carefully and make sure your cat gets the individual attention they need. I’m also happy to send photos and updates during visits so you can relax knowing your kitty is safe, happy, and loved. 🐾 I’d love to meet you and your feline family!
“Heather is awesome! She came for a meet and greet before we booked which I appreciated. Heather is a great communicator. Ike was content when I returned home, and Heather sent photos while I was away. The house was immaculate. I highly recommend Heather. She is attentive, dependable, trustworthy and professional.”
“Hanna is the best. Sweet, kind and trustworthy, we feel secure when leaving our cats under her care. She’s a wonderful communicator and we trust her above any other sitter. Book Hanna! You won’t regret it, I promise.”
About: With me, your pet receives consistency, calm, and a familiar routine in the home they already know. I send regular updates and photos each day so you can be sure that your pet is safe and relaxed. I'm comfortable administering medications and handling pets with specific needs, and I take the time before every stay to understand your pet's personality and preferences. I'm genuinely invested in their comfort and well-being while you're away. Pet care is built into my day, not worked around it. When I'm staying with your pet, I'm based in your home for the majority of the day and through the night, so your pet has consistent company, regular check-ins, and a reassuring, responsible presence nearby. I treat your home and your pet with the same respect I'd want shown to my own. I follow your pet's existing routine as closely as possible, including feeding times, walks, play, rest, so their day feels familiar. I keep your space tidy and give you regular updates so you always feel assured that both your pet and your home are well taken care of.
About: I have a decade of experience caring for cats of all personalities and needs. As a proud owner of 3 cats myself, I know exactly what it takes to keep a household happy, healthy, and well-fed. I also regularly look after my sister’s 3 cats whenever she goes away, so I am very comfortable managing multi-cat homes and keeping track of different routines. Whether your cat is high-energy, super playful, or a bit shy, I promise to treat them with the same love, patience, and attention I give to my own.
About: I am a proud foster of 16 fur babies, and rehabilitator of both wild life and domestic pets. Cats I worked with my entire life, from fosters to strays, to catch and release
“Amie did a fantastic job cat-sitting for us and put our minds completely at ease so we could enjoy our time away. She went out of her way to make everything very easy for us, including the meet and greet and returning our keys. She also sent great pictures, and she left our home very clean and tidy. We definitely recommend her.”
“Sam did an excellent job feeding and interacting with my cat. My cat is very shy, but Sam was able to coax her out from her hiding place and play and brush her. I'll definitely contact Sam when I go out of town again.”
“Noah is very good with animals! He seems to have a special bond with animals! He has been around dogs and cats since he was a baby! He is a responsible person and loves being with animals! He will do a very good job with your pets!”
About: I’ve always believed that pets deserve to feel safe, loved, and comfortable, especially when their people are away. I have years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality and routine. I’m attentive to the little things, whether that’s making sure they get their medication, sticking to their normal schedule, giving them plenty of love and attention, or noticing when something just seems a little off. For me, pet sitting isn’t just a job—it’s making sure you can be away knowing your pets are happy, cared for, and in good hands. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly schedule because animals are already a big part of my everyday life. I’m comfortable working around different routines and making sure each pet gets the attention, exercise, and care they need. I plan my schedule ahead of time so I can give the pets I’m caring for the time and attention they deserve rather than making them feel like they’re being squeezed into a busy day. My goal is to make their care feel consistent, calm, and as close to their normal routine as possible. Your pets deserve more than just someone stopping by—they deserve someone who genuinely cares about them. I provide loving, dependable in-home pet care tailored to your pet’s normal routine and individual needs. I’m comfortable caring for dogs and cats of different ages, personalities, and needs, including providing medications and keeping a close eye on their behavior and well-being. During visits, I’ll make sure your pets are fed, have fresh water, get potty breaks and exercise, and receive plenty of attention and affection. I’ll also keep their space clean and give you updates so you can relax knowing they’re happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. 🐾❤️

I got out of my car and looked around for a few minutes but didn't see anything and I got ready to leave I hear faint cry and I turned and looked down into some tall weeds and there she was , this poor malnourished kitten crying for help . To make a long story short I got her home and the day my wife and I took her to vet . They kept her for 3 days running ivs into her . We able to come and after 3 days thinking she wasn't going make it. And here she is still with after such a traumatic start to her life .

About: I'm a lifelong animal lover who has cared for pets of all kinds! From house pets to farm animals,I have experience with them all. Farm life has taught me the importance of patience, structure, and endless belly rubs. I work from home, which means your furry friend will get plenty of attention, playtime, and supervision.

About: Hi, I’m Katie! 🐾 I’m a lifelong animal lover, mom of four, and experienced pet caregiver who genuinely believes our pets are part of the family. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities, and I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pets. I’m attentive to routines, feeding instructions, medications, exercise needs, and all those little quirks that make your pet unique. I have experience with dogs, cats, puppies, and a variety of animals through our own busy little homestead. Whether your pup needs a good walk, some playtime, companionship while you’re away, or simply lots of love and attention, I’m happy to help! My goal is for you to feel completely comfortable knowing your pets are safe, cared for, and getting plenty of affection while you’re away. I’ll treat them like they’re my own—and I’m always happy to send updates and photos so you don’t miss them too much! ❤️ I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pets! Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine! I care for my own dogs, cats, ducks, and chickens every day, so I’m very comfortable with the responsibility and consistency that comes with caring for animals. I’m home full-time for most of the day, with only school drop-offs/pick-ups and occasional errands taking me away. Because of that, I have a very flexible schedule and can provide frequent potty breaks, typically every 1–2 hours, as well as regular check-ins, walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship. I love being home and having animals around, so pet care fits naturally into my lifestyle rather than feeling like just another job. 🐾 I tailor care to each pet’s individual needs, personality, routine, and comfort level. For boarding and doggy daycare in my home, pets become part of our household routine with plenty of attention, supervised play, potty breaks, and downtime. I have a large home and a country setting, so there’s room for pets to be comfortable and enjoy their time here. For dog sitting and walks, I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible—including feeding schedules, medications, exercise, potty breaks, and any special instructions. I’m home full-time for the most part, so I’m able to provide frequent care and attention rather than leaving pets alone for long stretches. Most importantly, I want your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’ll communicate with you throughout their stay or visit and am happy to send photos and updates so you know how they’re doing. 🐾
“Another great day at Hanna’s! We have now been to Hanna’s enough that Rubi got very excited as soon as we turned onto her street. They opened the door to the house and Rubi ran in and was ready to play. She always has a great time and is well cared for.”
“Heather was wonderful with my pup. She was very patient and understanding with a new doggie in her beautiful home. She was also very flexible and responsive. Her pets are also very welcoming and easily welcomed my dog Fiona into their pack. I had a stress free day thanks to Heather!”
“Jaronsa was fantastic! I was desperate to find someone to watch my little pup, last minute and I’m lucky to have found Jaronsa! Pippa was well taken care of. She loved laying in the sunshine and liked that Jaronsa’s home had plenty of windows. Not to mention, she had the best yard ever! I will definitely reach out again when I am in town, looking for a sitter!”
“Julie and her husband, Joe, took good care of Obi. It was his first time staying with them. Julie sent me a picture and video of Obi having a good time. Their dog Barron was not home to play with, but I think they played with Obi and gave him lots of attention.”
“I honestly cant say enough good things about Kim and her family!! She is amazing with our pups and always goes above and beyond! It’s amazing to be able to travel without stressing if our pup is okay or not, when she’s with Kim we know she’s going to have an amazing time!!”
“We had a great experience with Elli’s stay! The sitter was very flexible and took great care of her. Elli came home happy and tired, so we know she had a good time. Would definitely use her again!”
About: I have been a lifelong pet owner and love dogs. I have taken care of lots of dogs. Walking them, feeding them, brushing them, and most of all giving attention and love to them so they do not feel anxious or sad when their family is away. I am currently working very part time and would be available weekends or weekdays and also overnights. To give your dogs the best love and support I have a big yard but it is not fenced in so best to be on a leash at my house. I am also able to crate if need be.
About: I have pet sit, walked, ran, leash trained, and mentally stimulated dogs of all breeds since a kid. Each dog needs all of these things in different ways and I am here to figure that out to insure your pup and you get the best from me. I used to be under the LLC Dogs On the Run Grand Rapids, but life (two children, moving to Holland etc) put that on hold. I am now so excited to start giving Hollands furry family members what they need! I would love to meet you and work with you and your dog to give them the energy and visit or stay that they need! I have ran and walked dogs no matter the weather. Visits and Stays will come with pictures, arrival and departure time, a map of where we walked/ran, and any notes of our adventure! Send me a message and lets talk about your furry friend today! I am currently working, but that can be worked around your schedule and your pets needs. I am always willing to find the best scenario and schedule! For those going on walks and runs, we will work with what you use and what works best for your dog. All dogs are different. Also, what you want from your dog is different as well. If they need some leash training we can do that as well. My car is dog friendly, so if ball at the park is what they need, or a swim, I am down for that as well! Variety is the spice of life! For stays, I do have a dog of my own who is completely pet friendly, so of course our home is too! Any questions, Ask away :)
About: Hello, my name is Amanda! I would be honored to provide peace of mind, knowing your home &/or pets are safe and cared for, while you are away, during the day or longer. I offer drop in visits, dog walking, doggy daycare, boarding and house sitting. Additionally, I have experience taking care of my parent's diabetic cat, when they went out of town, which included giving him insulin shots twice a day, so I am comfortable with some medical needs' animals. My cat, Penny, is technically a senior cat, and she remains very healthy and happy! I also have experience taking care of my friends' senior dogs overnight when her and her family went out of town. As well as my own senior dog, Bentley, who has passed away. It has been a few years, but my heart is still too broken to think about welcoming a dog into my home for forever, but I so miss having a dog's company, so, temporary will have to do for now! I know just how much I loved my dog and wanted to protect him and keep him happy & healthy as long as possible, and I promise to treat your pets the same. I was also the proud owner of 4 chickens when I lived in Florida. They were the greatest entertainment! By the time I moved to Michigan, there was sadly only one remaining chicken, I didn't want to confuse her with the weather change, so of course she became a house chicken. She got to live her last two years living inside the house, cozy as can be, with me, my dog & cat. We all loved it! Long story short, I'm also available for some farm animal sitting. I promise to keep them out of your house! Unless... I would love to chat with you about your pets and your situation, and see if I can be of any assistance to you! Thank you so much! Talk soon! I would really love for pet care to become my full time work, and at this time I have open availability, in order to achieve that. I have a fully fenced yard and no off-limit spaces in my home, your pets will be treated as my own, while in my care!

About: Hi, I’m Madison! I’m a professional canine trainer, behaviorist, groomer, and full-time caretaker with 12 years of hands-on experience. I’m certified in dog behavior, temperament, body language, and care—so I understand what dogs need to feel safe, confident, and happy. I create enriching, balanced environments where every dog can thrive. From playful activities to structured downtime and personalized attention for pups with unique needs, I tailor each day to your dog’s individual personality. With me, your furry family member is treated like my own—showered with love, positive guidance, and plenty of tail-wagging fun! I give every dog my full attention, making sure they feel safe, loved, and totally at ease. Most days, you’ll find us outside soaking up the fresh air—running, playing, and exploring together. And if you ever wonder where I am, I’m probably out back with the pack having a blast. When winter hits, we move the fun into our heated, pup-friendly garage. It’s set up just for them, with turf or rubber mats for comfort and tons of toys to keep tails wagging. No matter the weather, your dog will always have a cozy, engaging, and joyful space to call their home-away-from-home. Your pup’s comfort and happiness are always my top priority! Our fully fenced-in backyard is designed with your dog’s comfort and enjoyment in mind, featuring pools, toys, water bowls, and all the essentials for a fun and enriching experience. Each dog is fed separately to maintain a peaceful and individualized routine. For dogs who prefer more privacy, we provide private rooms to ensure they have a quiet space away from the other dogs when needed. We are committed to providing a safe, comfortable, and personalized environment for every dog in our care.

About: As much as we want to bring our pets everywhere with us sometimes, we can’t. But that shouldn’t mean your pet isn’t living their best life possible. I can check in on your pet for some company, pets and play time, treats, meals, water, and a walk. I can also do anything else they may need. My goal is to give your pet a better day and give you a peace of mind knowing your pet is happy. I grew up on a farm with all animals such as dogs, cats, rabbits, goats, and horses. I was in a dog club growing up and learned basic dog training skills. Over the years I’ve cared for puppies and senior dogs needing special assistance and medications. I’ve helped care for multiple animals and hope to have the opportunity to care for yours too. I’m working part time in (human) healthcare. As much as I love people, I want to spend more time with animals on my days off. I work every Monday and Wednesday and am busy Saturday most of the time. My schedule changes once in a while but this is the general availability. I am mostly available morning and afternoon until about 3pm. Please ask for any specific times though anytime and I’ll see if it ends up working out. Thanks! 😊 My goal is to make sure your dog is as well cared for as if you were there yourself. I can do what you request. I can feed, water, potty break, medication administration, play time and pets, or go for a walk. I can leave them out or crate when I leave.
About: People have a special bond with their pets, and I'm happy to learn those unique dynamics to make your fur-babies more comfortable in your absence. I love playing, walking, or relaxing with dogs and cats - really just doing what makes them happy! Going for drives, to dog parks, or on play dates is something I believe is vital to a happy and healthy dog. I have had many pets of my own and even trained dogs for a few years now on top of my extensive pet sitting experience. Schedules and consistency are key elements when working with animals, so getting to know your animal is very important to me, along with learning the specifics of what owners know their pets need. I am capable of handling medications and some of the more high maintenance or challenging animals. My schedule is very flexible day to day, so your pets will never been alone for more than 6 hours in my care at any given time. You know the best way to keep your pets safe in the times they are left alone or while traveling so I will always follow any instructions you offer to be sure your pet is being cared for responsibly and effectively.
“Jennifer was able to help me out this week when my regular walker was sick and I was in a pinch. My senior pup loves her and she even gets him to go potty in the rain. She’s professional, responsive and I’ll definitely be contacting her in the future!”
About: I have experience taking care of senior dogs, large breed dogs, breeds that have been “deemed aggressive,” small dogs and so on! I currently am mom to a 4 year old boxer pit mix who I rescued from the shelter 2 years ago when he was going to be euthanized for “being too large and taking up space.” It’s safe to say that your large dogs will be safe with me, as they have a special place in my heart! I enjoy the time I spend with every dog I take care of, and I promise to take your furry friend on adventures and I promise to keep them enriched during their time with me! I understand how hard it is to be away from your pet, and knowing they are in good hands and adventuring makes the time away easier. I also have experience with dogs that are more active than others and who need more enrichment than other dogs. I’m a pro at making a frozen Kong, frozen lick mat, or a treat puzzle! I work full-time but maintain a highly structured daily routine centered around my two dogs. I am fully available for walks and drop-in visits during early mornings, evenings, and all day on weekends, ensuring your pet gets dedicated, reliable care. I do not care for pets in my home but I am willing to do drop in visits, walks or even extended stays with my clients pets. I care for every dog as I do my own, and I will strictly follow the rules that the client has laid out for me (for example, if your pet needs to be crated at a certain time, I will ensure that they are crated at that time!)
About: I pay close attention to each dog’s unique personality and needs — from high-energy adventurers who love long walks to gentle souls who just want cuddles and calm company. You can count on me for dependable communication, updates, and plenty of photos so you always feel connected and at ease. I’m currently working part time as a babysitter so my schedule is quite flexible. Tuesdays are taken up but outside of that I’m very flexible! I have a dog friendly home with an open back yard. All dogs will be leashed at all times whether in your home or mine. Dogs in my home are dog friendly as well!
“Sam was really great! Milo was a little nervous at first about being walked by someone new, but Sam was so patient and friendly with him. I plan on scheduling recurring walks with Sam!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs my whole life! Not only my own dogs, but friends and neighbors dogs as well. I love animals and they love me. I am flexible and can adapt to serve your pets needs. I have great attention to detail and care for pets in a timely manner, feeding and walking consistently according to their normal schedule to avoid disrupting their routine. I know how tough it is to leave your pets, but I will give them love and care and send as many pictures as you’d like throughout their time with me. I am a grad student and I would be happy to add caring for your pet into my day or week. I have time to let your pet out about every 4-8 hours. My schedule is flexible and I am happy to accommodate any special requests. I do have a part time job with a variable schedule, so depending on the dates I may or may not have to go to work for about 8 hours. I groomed my golden doodle and gave him all his haircuts for several years. I’d be happy to groom your dog too! I will do my best to adjust to feed and walk or play with your dog at the time they are used to so their routine isn’t disturbed.
“From the minute our dog met Morgan I could tell things would go well. Morgan was very timely and sent pictures and details about each visit with our dog Leo. I was out of town and when I asked if she could do a couple of extra things to care for Leo she happily agreed. She is very trustworthy, attentive to details and caring. I look forward to having her help with Leo again in the future.”
About: I used to be a groomer at a local business and took care of so many different dogs! I love being around any animals truly, but dogs hold a special place in my heart! I am currently in college to be an Ultrasound Tech. I am available throughout the weekdays almost anytime needed unless I have something come up with work! I treat every client’s home and pets with the utmost care and respect! During visits, I follow their exact feeding and potty routine, make sure water bowls are always clean and full, wipe paws if it’s messy outside, and give them plenty of attention and playtime. I always ensure doors and gates are securely locked and keep you updated with photos so you have total peace of mind while you're away.
About: I’ve always believed that pets deserve to feel safe, loved, and comfortable, especially when their people are away. I have years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality and routine. I’m attentive to the little things, whether that’s making sure they get their medication, sticking to their normal schedule, giving them plenty of love and attention, or noticing when something just seems a little off. For me, pet sitting isn’t just a job—it’s making sure you can be away knowing your pets are happy, cared for, and in good hands. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly schedule because animals are already a big part of my everyday life. I’m comfortable working around different routines and making sure each pet gets the attention, exercise, and care they need. I plan my schedule ahead of time so I can give the pets I’m caring for the time and attention they deserve rather than making them feel like they’re being squeezed into a busy day. My goal is to make their care feel consistent, calm, and as close to their normal routine as possible. Your pets deserve more than just someone stopping by—they deserve someone who genuinely cares about them. I provide loving, dependable in-home pet care tailored to your pet’s normal routine and individual needs. I’m comfortable caring for dogs and cats of different ages, personalities, and needs, including providing medications and keeping a close eye on their behavior and well-being. During visits, I’ll make sure your pets are fed, have fresh water, get potty breaks and exercise, and receive plenty of attention and affection. I’ll also keep their space clean and give you updates so you can relax knowing they’re happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. 🐾❤️
About: I am an animal lover; I have been my entire life.I have experience working with senior animals, I have experience with administering all medications; whether it’s injections, oral liquids, or pills, or topicals. I treat my dog and my cat like they’re part of my family. I want your pets to feel loved while you’re away, so I will do everything I can to ensure that happens. I will make sure they are fed exactly as you need me to, I will administer medications (if they need them), we will go on walks, and if they are allowed to sleep in a bed, they can sleep with me also. I will make sure your home is straightened up before your return as well. I have a completely open schedule; so I can stop over any time of the day that you need care. Whether it’s early morning, or late evening, I can make that work for you. I will treat your home as if it is my own home. I will clean up after your pet and myself. I can administer medications (if needed), I will feed as you need me to; and I promise to give your pet lots of love and cuddles.
About: I bring over 15 years of experience as a puppy trainer for Canine Companions for Independence, where I helped raise and train service dog puppies with structure, consistency, and patience. That experience gave me a deep understanding of obedience training, behavior development, socialization, and building trust with dogs of all temperaments. I’ve also had dogs and cats my entire life, so caring for animals isn’t just something I do — it’s who I am. I’m comfortable reinforcing training, working with puppies, and providing gentle, attentive care for senior pets. I understand routines, communication, and the importance of making pets feel safe and secure while their owners are away. What sets me apart is reliability, experience, and treating every pet like family — with structured care, attention to detail, and consistent updates for peace of mind. As a stay-at-home dad, pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. During the school year, I have flexibility and availability throughout the day for drop-ins, walks, feedings, and check-ins. Summers are even more open, allowing me to offer consistent, reliable care with a flexible schedule. Because I’m home-based, I’m able to prioritize punctuality, routine, and communication. Pet care isn’t something I try to squeeze in — it’s something I can intentionally plan my day around to ensure your pets receive dependable, attentive care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my priority is keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow feeding schedules carefully, provide exercise or playtime based on their needs, clean litter boxes or pick up waste promptly, and reinforce any household rules or training already in place. I understand that pets feel most comfortable in their own environment, so I focus on consistency, patience, and attentiveness. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away. With over 15 years of experience training puppies for Canine Companions for Independence and a lifetime of owning both dogs and cats, I’m highly observant of behavior and body language, ensuring your pet feels safe, secure, and well cared for at all times.

We will use you every time we need to head West to Wisconsin.”

We were very pleased and would not hesitate to choose Tasha for our next boarding need.”

We will definitely continue to book with Anne in the future!”
