“Alex provided great care to Lenny while we were gone. She sent frequent pics and updates showing all the fun he was having. We will definitely have Alex watch Lenny again!”
“Lyudmila is amazing! She welcomed our teddy boy last minute and treated him like family. We loved the updates and pics—turns out our chunky guy is a big fan of hot dogs! It’s such a relief knowing he’s so well cared for. He’ll definitely be back next time we travel!”
“Miles had suck a great time with Kim, Tim, Phritz, Captain, and his new puppy friend. They went on nice long walks which Miles loves. He was an exhausted boy when he got home. We are incredibly grateful to have found such a kind and caring couple to watch our dog when we are away.”
“Katrina did an excellent job of caring for Knox. He appeared to feel very comfortable and found a friend among the pups that were there. He had good social interaction and was a tired pup when we got home.”
“Allison was beyond amazing! I could feel her kindness from the start. She was so good with our dog. This was our first time leaving him since he was very young and he had so much fun! She has a deep understanding of dogs and is in tune with their needs. She sent updates and pics throughout the stay which was reassuring. Would recommend over and over.”
“Jennifer was absolutely amazing! Her family was awesome and loved our Oakley as he was their own. She sent a bunch of pictures, which made us feel even more at ease. They did a lot of playing, walking, and visiting parks. Definitely recommend, we won't hesitate to leave Oakley with her again!”
“Yuki was so fantastic with our dog Nala! Nala can be a bit wild especially when meeting new people, but Yuki didn’t seemed concerned about it one bit. You can immediately tell her love for dogs! We received many photo updates, and in every one of them Nala had a great big smile or looked totally pooped out and napping from playing with the other dogs. We are so relieved to have found such a great sitter for Nala while we were in town, and will definitely be using Yuki again when we are in the area.”
“My pups had a great time with Eric and Gretchen! They came home relaxed and happy. We received sweet photos of the pups and frequent texts. They did a great job taking care of their meds -- very calm and caring.”
“Elizabeth took great care of Walter! Sent picture and checked in with us through the day. Very trust worthy and would definitely recommend and will definitely use again if we are back! Thanks again!!”
“My pup had a great time! Ty was great. He kept me updated on how it was going and was very easy to work with. We will be using him again and I highly recommend his services. Wonderful experience.”
“Such a great experience! it was the first time I had to leave my baby and she made me feel so comfortable and was super responsive! I picked miss millie up this morning, and she was happy as can be! Totally recommend:)”
“Kelsey was, by far, the best dog sitter we have ever had. She sent SO many photos and updates of our pup, which is something we never expected but it was so appreciated! Our pup became best friends with hers and we really hope to have Kelsey watch her again 🥰”
“Taylor's care was simply fantastic. Her own dogs are so gentle and welcoming; you can see that Taylor and her husband are dog lovers. My dog craves exercise, so I was a little hesitant about how she would adjust to staying in an apartment, but I should never have worried! Taylor made sure she had lots of safe, outside, running time at the park! She sent us pictures and updates, and although Sydney was glad to see me, she was also stress-free and obviously well cared for. I recommend Taylor 100%.”
“Sabrina and her family were wonderful to work with. I felt immediately at ease meeting with them and Ted had a great time staying at their house. They sent plenty of pictures of his adventures and we've already booked another stay with them. Would give more stars if I could, definitely recommend trusting your pet with this family!”
“A super warm vibe from Katelyn when dropping off and picking up. Katelyn checked in to ask a good question and her pictures reassured us that Dixie was aok. She was more than ok, even feeling comfortable enough to eat her food, take a nap, and play, play, play with Mae.”
About: I have taken care of many dogs. My friends and family have trusted me with all kinds of dogs. I love to walk dogs, play with dogs, and everything else that comes with being a pet owner!

My home has a very large fenced in backyard. We have a great walking path for long or short walks. We have one dog that gets along very well with other dogs.

“Briea went above and beyond watching my two cats while I was out of town. She's considerate, responsive, and a straight up cat-whisperer! My kitties are shy and warmed up to her in no time. I really appreciated Briea's updates, photos, and follow-through on instructions. I highly recommend!”
“Amanda was an amazing caregiver for my four cats while I was on vacation for a week. She visited twice a day at our agreed‑upon times and always followed up with photos and thoughtful updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. Two of my cats are typically very fearful of new people, but after just a few days they were completely at ease around her. Animals truly recognize kind, caring humans, and Amanda is absolutely one of them. We met before my trip so she could get to know the cats, and I felt comfortable with her right away. She has a kind, easygoing personality, and it was lovely chatting about her own pets too. She also needed to give one cat a transdermal med on her ear for hypothyroidism twice a day and she was very comfortable with providing that for my kitty! If you’re looking for a reliable, compassionate, and trustworthy pet carer, Amanda is the one to choose. I couldn’t recommend her more.”
About: I have a cat of my own (Boots) who is my best friend. I’ve had Boots since he was a kitten. In addition, I have fostered over 6 cats for Homeward Animal Shelter. During this time, I cared for cats that required insulin, supplements, and a structured feeding routine.
“First time leaving my puppy, Ollie, with a sitter. Adam was the perfect sitter for my little, timid pup. He knew how to make Ollie comfortable with him, was knowledgeable of dog training techniques, responsive to any questions I had, and left pics and comments. Ollie was well taken care of and my vacation was worry free.”

“Julia is absolute gold. From the moment I booked her, I felt completely at ease — and that peace of mind is priceless when it comes to my cats. Merman and Calpurnia were happy, relaxed, and clearly so well cared for while I was away (which tells you everything). Julia is dependable, communicative, and genuinely loving with animals. She sent thoughtful updates, followed instructions perfectly, and treated both my home and my cats with so much respect. I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to book her again — she’s the kind of sitter you hope to find and then never want to let go of. Highly, highly recommend!”
“Arica has been amazing with my 2 crazy boys! We are gone for a month and she has gone above and beyond to give my kitties the love and care that they need. She's very communicative and I love the pictures and notes sent with the report:) I absolutely recommend Arica for your pet care needs! 10/10”
About: I fell in love with cats in 2009. I grew up with my sweet girls Sophie and Noel, and now have a wonderful rescue cat named Rana! Whether your cat loves cuddles, to have company while still having their own space, or if they just need a designated treat giver while you're out... I'm here to help!
About: I have always been an animal lover! I grew up around dogs, cats, and cattle/farm life animals. Every animal that I encounter, I love it like it’s my own! I currently have a very flexible schedule. I am looking for a new opportunity to be around animals this summer and get outdoors whether it’s walking pets or playing outside with pets. I have had 3 big dogs growing up and currently have 2 cats of my own that I adopted from homeward animal shelter. I always ensure that any animal in my care gets all the love that they can and that they have all the needed supplies, toys, and treats.
“Maria was fantastic! Our 4 cats were happy and we'll taken my care of during our vacation. And Maria provided daily updates/pictures which was very appreciated. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her!”
About: I’ve loved dogs my whole life. I foster and volunteer with TMAR and absolutely love it. I’ve had more experience volunteering with young puppies, and the moms after their having their litter (our resident dog is our foster fail that I fell in love with after she had her puppies). I appreciate all ages including the wild youngin’s and the sleepy seniors. ❤️ Love giving baths and snuggles to the dogs that will take the extra love. I’m currently a full time night nurse at the VA in Fargo but live in Barnesville. I can assist with pet care as needed, I’m pretty flexible with my schedule. I have a very friendly dog who loves other dog-friends. I have fostered 8 dogs and can accommodate just about anything depending on the dog! I can work with kennel training if preferred or they can sleep in the bed with me. I would prefer to keep their routine as similar as their home routine as possible to make things easier for them! I have a 5 year old daughter who loves dogs just like her mom and loves nothing more than to help out- especially when it comes to playing. 😊
About: I am an animal lover with lots of experience! I have worked in pet care and have watched neighbors animals as well. From turtles and birds to dogs and cats, I can help with any of your animal care needs! Taking time off for the summer before college. I will be available 7 days a week until late August. I own a dog so pet care is a part of my daily life! I have a 5 bedroom house with lots of room for pets! The yard is not fenced in but there is a tether. The backyard is large so even with the tether there is plenty of space for any pets to roam!
About: I love animals and will make sure your pets needs are my first priority. You will get pictures of your pets while in my care. Im currently available, so I’ll be able to take care of your dog or dogs. I do have a dog of my own Ziggy who is friendly with everyone. Ziggy and I frequently go on walks to different parks. We travel quite frequently and are always checking different areas out. If you have a preferred area we go that’s ok!
About: I grew up with cats and helping take care of family pets, each of them having unique personalities; from shy seniors who don't like strangers to energetic kittens keen on getting into trouble, I've had the pleasure of interacting with them all.
About: Growing up I had a cat who was my best buddy for 17 years so most of my cat experience comes from him. I’ve also babysat pets both dogs & cats for family friends starting at age 11. As an adult I’ve worked at a few different doggie daycares that also offered boarding for cats and was in charge of caring for them. I also stop by and check in on a family friend’s cat pretty frequently whenever she’s out of town. I usually go there once a day for 1-3 hours to spend time with her kitty and make sure there’s food, water & clean litter!
“Abigail and my little Loey have a special relationship that I can see from the wonderful photos Abigail sends me. I can tell Lo is a happy kitty when Abigail is with her! It makes me happy to know that Lo is being taken care of with love while I’m gone. She’s the best!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Hickson
“Yuki was wonderful and very accommodating. We felt at ease and knew our pups were in good hands. She sent photos to let us know they were doing great. When we picked them up, the pups were excited to see us but we could tell they had fun! Next time we come, we will definitely use Yuki again.”
“I really appreciate the cure Lyudmila give to my dog Dior every day. She will send me pictures of my dog and she looks so good. She will communicate with me too. And her communication skills was excellent. I would love to take my door back to her any day.”
“My partner and I were driving across the country with our 50lb Samoyed, Jack, to relocate to our new home. On our trip, we decided to stop through Fargo where my family is from and take in NDSU football game — Go Bisons! We needed someone to watch Jack for the few hours we were at the game, and Taylor readily accepted our last minute (day before) request. Jack is a calm, friendly dog who seems to have been experiencing some anxiety on the long drive and is not consistently eating or pooping. We were a little nervous leaving him with new people in a new place when he was already on edge. However, Taylor and her family seemed to put him at ease immediately. Taylor kept us updated with pictures and milestones, and when we picked him up he had eaten all of his food, pooped, and played a bunch outside. He seemed happy, calm, and well cared for. If you have any dog sitting needs, we definitely recommend Taylor!”
“Bailey has always been so nice and very accommodating. Our dogs also get along great! She sends updates and pictures every time our dog is with her. She has walked him, boarded him and also done daycare for us. I would 100% recommend her for your doggy needs!”
“Pamela was a fantastic sitter for our senior dog Kurt. Great communication both before and during the daycare. A lovely neighborhood with a great park. Super friendly and professional. We highly recommend Pamela for your pet-sitting needs in Fargo!”
“Rachel and her family have been a life saver for us. We have a lovely little pup that adores kids and other puppies...and Rachel has just that. Eva loves to go to Rachel's. A sleepy pup is a wonderful pup❤️”
About: I have been caring for dogs for most of my life, starting when I was 6 years old, when I was gifted my first puppy for Christmas. I trained my bishon shitzu to jump through hoops at age 11, not professionally, but I was still pretty impressed. I also helped my parents potty train him. When he got older, I cared for him while he had Cushing’s syndrome until the day he went over the rainbow bridge. Just 2 shorts years ago, I got my second dog, Oakley. He has been my entire world and I trained him on my own, as well as brought him to training classes and learned to do some of those things myself. I absolutely adore dogs and I have since day 1. I love all shapes and sizes and I will always care for them as if they are my own. I look forward to meeting your fur babies that you love just like I do. 😊 I’m currently in PA school fully online and would love to have additional company! I have a Goldendoodle around who loves to play with friends! I live in a condo and have a doodle who I take on walks at least once a day, and I’m sure he’d love to have a buddy or two along. He gets along very well with all dogs and always loves to be around them.
“We had a great experience. Ty was friendly, responsive and flexible when our times needed adjusting. The fenced yard is great and the dogs loved exploring all of the dog toys. Happy dogs. Happy dog parents. We’ll definitely use Ty again.”
About: Hi! I’m a full-time pet sitter with hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of animals—not just dogs and cats, but also small mammals and exotics. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes, cats, rats, tortoises, lizards, hermit crabs, and even tiny critters like jumping spiders. If it has fur, scales, or a shell, there’s a good chance I’m comfortable caring for it! I’m calm, patient, and attentive, and I always prioritize each animal’s individual needs, routines, and comfort level. Whether that means high-energy playtime for big dogs, gentle handling for small pets, or precise care for reptiles and invertebrates, I take pride in providing safe, thoughtful, and reliable care. I’m available full-time, which allows me to be flexible with scheduling and attentive to your pet while you’re away. I understand that every pet household is different, and I’m happy to discuss specific care needs, animals not listed here, or custom pricing. If you have any questions at all—about availability, pricing, or whether I’d be a good fit for your pet—please don’t hesitate to reach out. I’d love to chat and make sure your pet gets the best care possible! I have experience with different age ranges too - I've had the opportunity to see many of my fur family member's long lives, from beginning to end. I am currently working remotely and on my own time, so I have lots of flexibility with times and services. I love being outdoors and enjoy a cozy day in too. We have an unfenced yard and a deck with a gate on the stairs down. We live on walking trails that our fur babies frequent with. Dogs and cats are allowed to free-roam the house. We do have MANY kennels (with varying sizes) that we can utilize if needed. I also am comfortable going into your home and watching your critters there too :)
“Nicole is lovely! She took on our separation anxiety boy, Oslo, and did so well with him. We were sent several updates and pictures throughout the day so we could see that Oslo was comfortable, happy, and care for!”
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life. I’ve trained my own dogs through three levels of obedience and raised five of them from the time they were 8 weeks old and took care of them through their elderly years including in pup wheel chairs. I’m comfortable with pets of all ages and personalities, from playful puppies to independent cats and senior pets. I treat every animal as if they were my own—making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I work school hours during the week and have Thursdays at home, which gives me extra flexibility for pet care. I’m available for walks and drop-ins after 4 p.m. on weekdays, and for boarding or extended visits on weekends. Your pets will always get plenty of love, attention, and playtime. I love spending time brushing and walking all of my furry friends. I don’t have a fenced yard at this time, but I spend lots of time outside with pets in our spacious back yard and make sure they’re always safely supervised. I’m comfortable using leashes, harnesses, and long leads to give dogs room to explore while keeping them secure. Whether in my home or yours, I create a calm, caring environment where every pet feels safe and loved.
“Awesome sitter! Was able to squeeze my girl in last minute on the Fourth of July so I could spend time with family instead of stressing over her barking (from separation anxiety) in the hotel. Erin is so sweet and invited us in right away to take a look at her house and the backyard. She made me feel very good about leaving my little angel in her care. When we went to pick her up Erin invited us in again and filled us in on everything they did together. Mocha was a very happy girl when we picked her up and I know they had fun together!”
“Mindy was absolutely amazing with our dog Brodie! From the moment we dropped him off, we felt confident that he was in great hands. She kept us updated throughout the day with photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. Brodie came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!”

Adventure-ready dog walkers - Hickson
“Kathryn is absolutely wonderful with my two pups. She realized right away little Dukie does better with his “momma” on their walks so she takes both the pups together. Kathryn is extremely kind, trustworthy, and very good at communicating. It takes so much off my plate knowing I have a dependable dog walker/sitter for when my baby gets here, absolute Godsend!”
“Adam did an awesome job with our dogs! Scarlett doesn’t always have the best social skills with new people, but he handled her like a pro and she warmed up fast. Luka had a rough start not feeling the best, but Adam took it all in stride and kept both dogs safe and happy. This walk was a prep for upcoming house sitting, and it gave us a lot of confidence knowing he communicates well, goes above and beyond, and really cares. Highly recommend!”

I have also been blessed with the experience of working professionally with dogs for 3+ years & plan to continue in the future. I also have 2 dogs of my own! I am currently not working for the summer. During the school year I work as a food service worker at a local middle school. I am very passionate about animals! I’ve worked at 3 different doggie daycares as a dog handler/shift leader & as an assistant manager. I’ve gained a lot of experience during my time at these facilities and have grown even more passionate! I have experience in many areas when it comes to caring for pets! My husband and I have two dogs named Woody & Bee. Woody is a German short haired pointer that is very playful, gentle & has lots of love to give! He is extremely dog friendly & has accompanied me to the doggie daycare facilities and played with dogs of all shapes & sizes. Bee is a golden retriever who is as sweet as can be. All she ever wants to do is cuddle and be best buddies! She is also great with other dogs & just wants to have fun.

About: I have grown up with pets being a huge part of my life. Right now I have my sweet girls Paris and Rana. Paris is a four-year old Golden Retriever and Rana is a rescue kitty from Furry Friend's Rockin' Rescue. We adopted her in 2020! I grew up with cats, and although I didn't get my first dog until I moved out on my own, she has truly made me fall in love with being a dog mom. There's something special about the genuine love that all pets give us, and there's nothing I'd love more than to help take care of yours when life gets busy. Our pets are family. They will be in great hands and will get all of the love that they deserve! I am a full-time musician, but most of the time my Monday-Friday consists of spending time with my own pets before I hit the road! Although my schedule is unpredictable, it does leave room for even more flexibility and the ability to take last minute drop-ins/walk requests! I will always put your pets safety and happiness first. I know how terrifying it can be to leave your pets' care up to someone you've never met, but can assure you they will get nothing but love and attention during my drop-ins! I am unable to have pets come to my own home as it stresses my rescue cat out too much, but love doing drop-in visits at your convenience! I am someone who runs half marathons and walks for fun... So there is nothing I'd love more than to help walk your sweet fur babies as well!

“Vanessa came over to walk 1 of my dogs (puppy!) during lunchtime. She also let my other 2 dogs outside so the 3 of them could play together. She brought the puppy on a 1-2 mile walk every day and tried to get his energy out. She was prompt and provided daily feedback with pictures. Will definitely book again!”

About: I've grown up with vastly different dogs; my first was a grumpy senior cocker spaniel and my last was the sweetest, smartest Australian Shepard/blue heeler. I've also taken care of friends' and family's pets like my aunt's deaf pitbull and my cousin's St. Bernard. Needless to say, I have a wide range of pet experience. I'm currently an online graduate student, which means I have flexibility to work around yours and your pet's schedule. I'm available most days with available times from early morning to late evening. It's important for a pet to feel safe in their home. It's important to follow a pet's boundaries, I try to cater to their needs and their routine.
About: Hello! I have always had a love for animals especially dogs and cats. I had my own dog, Charlie, who had complex health issues and unfortunately is no longer with me. He made me comfortable with giving medications, insulin/allergy shots, and following instructions with dietary restrictions that I can also provide your pets with when needed. I currently work full time M-F, but my schedule is flexible during the week and most weekends. I have also been employed for over a year with a company in the F/M area providing pet care services in people's homes. I LOVE what I do and always looking for more opportunities to meet new furry friends. My schedule is flexible and I respond quickly to text/phone calls or email when reaching out looking for pet care. I'm able to do morning shifts before I head to my full time job M-F, lunch breaks, and after work. I can often move my schedule around if you need other times throughout the day too. Just ask! Weekends are more open when I am not out of town. I prefer going to the pets home to provide care where they are in a familiar environment. I can provide walks, bring your pet outside to play, clean litter boxes, feed and fill their water, administer medication etc. Boarding in my home can also be provided, as I have a pet and smoke free home and can work with your pets needs to make them feel safe and at home.
“Isabella has been absolutely wonderful to work with! My timid dog loves when she comes over, and I feel comfortable knowing that Isabella is caring for her. I would highly recommend!”
About: Growing up, I've always had pets, and my affection for them has only grown stronger as I've gotten older. I'm fascinated by creatures of all kinds and enjoy learning about them. My pet-care experience stems from having my own pets as well as caring for family, friends, and volunteers over the years. I’m excited to get to know you and your pet and provide that unconditional safety and love. Ideally weekends work best but weekdays in the morning are just fine as well. I have a mixed schedule so contact me for any questions. I can always assure my clients that i will take the finest possible care of their dog or cat. I do recognize that leaving a pet at home can be stressful but I make note of all relevant information, such as emergency contacts, veterinarian details, food recommendations, medication information, alarm codes, etc. Never forgetting to lock the doors, and never leave the building without a key. You can be sure that your pet is in good hands.
About: I volunteer at the local animal shelter.. I bathe, feed, walk, give medication, check health.. I grew up with dogs of different breeds. The breed I grew up with mostly is the Pit-bull. . I have been bitten 5 times in my life by dogs and now they don't hurt when I'm bit. I am not hard headed, I am understanding and can accommodate almost any need.

“Alex provided great care to Lenny while we were gone. She sent frequent pics and updates showing all the fun he was having. We will definitely have Alex watch Lenny again!”
“Miles had suck a great time with Kim, Tim, Phritz, Captain, and his new puppy friend. They went on nice long walks which Miles loves. He was an exhausted boy when he got home. We are incredibly grateful to have found such a kind and caring couple to watch our dog when we are away.”
“Katrina did an excellent job of caring for Knox. He appeared to feel very comfortable and found a friend among the pups that were there. He had good social interaction and was a tired pup when we got home.”
“Allison was beyond amazing! I could feel her kindness from the start. She was so good with our dog. This was our first time leaving him since he was very young and he had so much fun! She has a deep understanding of dogs and is in tune with their needs. She sent updates and pics throughout the stay which was reassuring. Would recommend over and over.”
“Yuki was so fantastic with our dog Nala! Nala can be a bit wild especially when meeting new people, but Yuki didn’t seemed concerned about it one bit. You can immediately tell her love for dogs! We received many photo updates, and in every one of them Nala had a great big smile or looked totally pooped out and napping from playing with the other dogs. We are so relieved to have found such a great sitter for Nala while we were in town, and will definitely be using Yuki again when we are in the area.”
“My pups had a great time with Eric and Gretchen! They came home relaxed and happy. We received sweet photos of the pups and frequent texts. They did a great job taking care of their meds -- very calm and caring.”
“Elizabeth took great care of Walter! Sent picture and checked in with us through the day. Very trust worthy and would definitely recommend and will definitely use again if we are back! Thanks again!!”
“My pup had a great time! Ty was great. He kept me updated on how it was going and was very easy to work with. We will be using him again and I highly recommend his services. Wonderful experience.”
“Such a great experience! it was the first time I had to leave my baby and she made me feel so comfortable and was super responsive! I picked miss millie up this morning, and she was happy as can be! Totally recommend:)”
“Kelsey was, by far, the best dog sitter we have ever had. She sent SO many photos and updates of our pup, which is something we never expected but it was so appreciated! Our pup became best friends with hers and we really hope to have Kelsey watch her again 🥰”
“Taylor's care was simply fantastic. Her own dogs are so gentle and welcoming; you can see that Taylor and her husband are dog lovers. My dog craves exercise, so I was a little hesitant about how she would adjust to staying in an apartment, but I should never have worried! Taylor made sure she had lots of safe, outside, running time at the park! She sent us pictures and updates, and although Sydney was glad to see me, she was also stress-free and obviously well cared for. I recommend Taylor 100%.”
“A super warm vibe from Katelyn when dropping off and picking up. Katelyn checked in to ask a good question and her pictures reassured us that Dixie was aok. She was more than ok, even feeling comfortable enough to eat her food, take a nap, and play, play, play with Mae.”
About: I have taken care of many dogs. My friends and family have trusted me with all kinds of dogs. I love to walk dogs, play with dogs, and everything else that comes with being a pet owner! I have a very open schedule. I may be gone for an hour in the morning and occasional events from time to time. I will have lots of available time to spend with your dog. My home has a very large fenced in backyard. We have a great walking path for long or short walks. We have one dog that gets along very well with other dogs.
“Renae was absolutely amazing with my pup! She kept me updated the whole time, sent me check-ins, and made everything so easy from start to finish. Harlynn came back happy, calm, and clearly well cared for. I really appreciate how attentive and reliable she was throughout the entire process. I will definitely be booking with Renae again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and loving to take care of their fur baby!”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life—I truly love them with my whole heart and would do anything to make sure they feel safe, loved, and happy. Whether it’s a bouncy puppy or a senior dog who needs some extra care, I treat every pet like they’re family. I’m all about cuddles, consistency, and making sure your pet feels totally at home. Pet care fits really naturally into my routine. I work full time but have a very flexible schedule, which means I’m able to plan my days around pet visits, walks, and playtime. I’m already used to building my day around my own cat, so adding in extra care is something I truly enjoy. Having animals around makes my day better, and I love being that dependable person pets can feel safe with. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, my top priority is making them feel safe, loved, and comfortable. In your home, I stick to their usual routine—meals, walks, playtime, and snuggles—so everything feels familiar. At my place, while I don’t have a yard, I live right next to a dog park, which means plenty of playtime and fresh air! Pets in my care get a cozy, calm space, lots of love, and attention tailored to their needs.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life, and have taken care of cats for 2 years now. I love taking care of both equally! I work full time, my husband works part time and is home during the day. We are available to watch your pets on weekends, but can do during the week as well! I have a home in a quiet neighborhood with a fenced in yard with plenty of room for dogs to run. I also own a friendly chocolate lab that would love play with your pup!
