About: As a proud four-legged mom, I take pet care very seriously and treat every dog like my own. I’m available every day as a stay-at-home mom, which gives me plenty of time to dedicate to your pets. I have two sweet, well-trained dogs of my own, Jadore and Jiovanni, who are the friendliest pups you’ll ever meet. I even have special days where I cook dog-friendly meals—because making pets feel loved and cared for is so important to me. When I look after your pets, they’ll be treated like family with lots of love, attention, and care. Pet care fits into my daily routine very naturally because it’s something I’m already doing every single day. As a stay-at-home mom and dog mom, I structure my day around making sure my two dogs, Jadore and Jiovanni, are happy, healthy, and cared for. That includes feeding, walks, playtime, training, and lots of love and attention. Because I’m home full-time, I have the flexibility to schedule drop-in visits and walks throughout the day without it ever feeling rushed. Caring for pets is more than just a task for me—it’s a part of my lifestyle. I truly enjoy spending time with animals, whether that means going on walks to get their energy out, making sure they’re fed on time, or just sitting with them for comfort and companionship. Every pet I look after gets the same care and attention I give my own, so it fits seamlessly into my weekly routine. To me, it’s not an “extra” responsibility—it’s something I love to do and look forward to. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always try to keep things as close to their normal routine as possible. I know how important consistency is, so I make sure they’re fed at their usual times, get fresh water, and have plenty of time for play, walks, and bathroom breaks. I love giving them attention, whether that’s cuddle time, playing with toys, or just sitting nearby so they feel comfortable and not alone. I also take care to follow any special instructions you provide—whether it’s medications, feeding preferences, or certain routines that make your pet feel more secure. I pay attention to their behavior and body language to make sure they’re happy and stress-free while you’re away. For me, caring for pets isn’t just about the basics—it’s about making sure they feel loved and safe until you’re back home.

“She really helped me out of a bind when I had no one to let my 6 month old puppy out of her kennel for a pee and water break during the day while I worked my 12 hour shifts for 2 days. I could tell by the second day that Ellie recognized Colleen, and not only that was excited to see her again! Colleen really took care of my puppy, was patient while she sniffed everything and anything on their walk, made sure she pottied and had a drink before putting her back in her kennel for the rest of my shift. Great experience! Both for me, and for Ellie too. 10/10 would recommend, and would book again :)”

About: I've been around dogs all my life. My grandparents were breeders for Scotties, Cocker Spaniels and Terriers. My personal pets have been Velvet a cooker spaniel, Tobby a shepherd/lab mix, Doobee a shepherd/collie mix and my current cohort is Harley a 50 lb mixed breed rescue from texas. I have completed over 18 months of weekly training with Harley culminating with AKC canine good citizen certificate. What i learned from that experience was the importance and significance of consistency. Additionally that I am trained to be as consistent as possible in providing the type of care that you prefer for your pet. I'm retired so I am usually available anytime and can do same day appointments. I'm usually up before 6am and keep late night hours also so please feel free to contact me anytime. I have a fenced yard and can easily crate your pet if needed. I have one pet friendly dog at home if your pet likes company. I do not have any children living at my home.
About: I am a certified, licensed, and insured dog trainer and the owner of Chaos To Clarity K9. I work with dogs and their families on obedience, leash skills, everyday manners, and behavior challenges. Many of the dogs I help are everyday family dogs who need guidance with things like pulling on leash, barking, jumping, reactivity, or learning how to settle in the home. I also enjoy working with puppies and helping owners build strong foundations early through clear communication and consistency. I have a strong interest in behavior modification, especially helping dogs work through fear, stress, and reactivity at a pace that keeps them comfortable and learning. My husband is a Registered Veterinary Technician (RVT) and a combat veteran and former military police K9 handler who trained civilian police dogs. Because of his veterinary background, I’m also able to consult with him when behavior questions may have a possible medical component, which can sometimes play a role in behavior. I also understand that dogs live in real families with real challenges. I live with multiple sclerosis and am raising an autistic four-year-old, so I appreciate how important it is for training to be practical, realistic, and supportive of the household environment. My goal is always to help create calmer, safer, and more enjoyable relationships between dogs and the people who love them. One thing that’s very important to me is paying attention to canine body language and stress signals. Dogs communicate constantly through subtle changes in posture, facial expression, and movement, and recognizing those signals early can prevent many behavior problems from escalating. During training, I help owners learn how to recognize what their dog is communicating so they can respond in a way that builds trust, confidence, and better behavior over time. Dog training is part of my regular weekly routine, and I intentionally keep my schedule structured so each client receives focused attention. My current training availability is: • Tuesday: 10:00 AM – 4:00 PM • Wednesday: 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM • Thursday: 9:00 AM – 8:00 PM • Saturday: 10:00 AM – 8:00 PM • Sunday: Afternoon appointments available by request Closed: Monday and Friday Because each dog and family has unique needs, I limit the number of training sessions I take each week so I can provide thoughtful, individualized guidance and follow-up support between sessions. Safety, trust, and clear communication are always my top priorities when working with dogs and their families. I pay close attention to canine body language and stress signals to make sure dogs remain comfortable and able to learn during training. Training sessions focus on creating a calm, structured environment where both the dog and owner can succeed. I work at the dog’s pace and help owners understand what their dog is communicating so they can respond clearly and confidently. My goal is to create training plans that are safe, practical, and sustainable for everyday life, helping dogs feel more secure while helping owners feel supported throughout the process.

“This was our baby’s first time being boarded and I am glad my mind could be at ease. The process was smooth from booking through pickup. Kody was overwhelmed with being away from his humans but the next day he was happy and playing with other dogs and we were sent pictures to show how he was doing. They were very responsive to texts and made sure they were aware of any special needs/concerns. We will definitely book again!”
“She was super kind and attentive to all of Nala’s needs! Her dog, Con, was super playful with my dog and I could tell my dog loved every moment staying at her house! Couldn’t recommend a better sitter for a dog :)”
“Kurt was the best sitter I could have ever asked for. My large Bear is such a gentle giant and Kurt ensured he was taken care of and loved in my absence. I was able to attend out of state meetings with no worries. I would not only use him again but highly recommend Kurt for the care of your furry family members.”

“Absolutely amazing! My dogs loved every moment with them. Branden and Nikkishae made sure my babies were well taken care of and eased my family’s nerves since it was our boys first time boarding. They were super understanding and were honestly such a joy, we could not have asked for anyone better to take care of our babies. We will absolutely be returning and recommending them to anyone and everyone who needs pet boarding!”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my dogs received! From the very beginning Kimberly was excellent with communication and reassuring that my pups were in good hands. She regularly updated me with photos during the stay that gave me a peace of mind.”
“I just wanna say thank you for keeping my Lola. I enjoy the pictures that were sent to me of her enjoying herself. My flight was canceled. I had to get a a flight the next day, which made me a couple hours late picking up Lola, but Tyreika understood….I will use Tyreika again thank you”

“Casey was great!! She showered my dog with love and kept me informed (pictures and messages) with how he was doing throughout his stay. I would 1000% recommend her to anyone who’s looking for someone to watch their pet.”
“This was my first time hiring a sitter (new pet), so I didn't know how it would work or how things would go. To my delight, the process was simple and easy. Now onto the sitter--Jacqueline was outstanding. She kept my cat/kitten (grown lil boy, "Mr") from Thur-Sun. She sent pics of him daily and let me know how he was doing, what he was eating, etc. She brought up no issues with him during his visit with her. I felt at peace seeing the pics (especially the first day) of him and knew he was safe and happy. I'm glad I chose Jacqueline and encourage anyone who's on the fence about getting a sitter, to try Jacqueline....I think you'll be pleasantly surprised. Thank you Jacqueline A....”
“Both of my pups had soo much fun at Mikayla’s house! There were lots of dogs to tire them out in her huge backyard! She sent updates and photos everyday! Would definitely use her again.”
“Ana is amazing!!! We had a previous bad experience and were nervous leaving our Bella again. Ana took all of our worries away! She kept me informed, sent photos and made sure Bella was comfortable in her home. She is already booked for our next trip!”

She keeps me updated and communicates with me frequently, which gives me peace of mind. I highly recommend Marina and will definitely book with her again in the future!”
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was little. Growing up we always had pets! I love animals and I have two dogs of my own. They are crate trained so I have no problem having them separate if necessary! If not, your babies will have some play mates! I am open to all care just let me know and I look forward to hearing from you! I am self employed right now so my schedule is extremely flexible. I do plan my schedule a week in advance usually but am also open to last minute bookings. I have a fenced in back yard with two fur babies of my own. I can easily crate my dogs or yours if that’s what you prefer or is necessary!
