About: I have had dogs for over 10 years now. I currently have three dogs that are all under 8 pounds. Their names are Chiquis, Chato, and Pluto. I’m graduating in December, which gives me plenty of free time to focus on caring for your pet. I’m home most days and afternoons, so I’m able to give consistent attention, walks, playtime, and anything else your pet needs throughout the day. I have a large fenced yard where dogs can safely play and explore. Pets are always supervised, and I make sure they feel comfortable, secure, and cared for. Whether they’re inside relaxing or outside getting their energy out, I keep the environment clean, safe, and stress-free.

Malarie did a great job with Baylee! Baylee has a lot of separation anxiety and Malarie did a great job at making her feel comfortable when I was away. I would absolutely book again!

Madeline was great with my two cats over a long wedding weekend with me out of state. Madeline was willing to arrive in the night and depart late in the evening. My two girls did well with her. Consider Madeline for your cat care and overnight needs.

About: I have had all kinds of different pets, including dogs, cats, hamsters, hermit crabs, guinea pigs, and fish. I have also taken care of horses and saved a wild turtle. I will watch any kind of pet, even snakes and bugs. I have always been an avid animal lover and would love to meet and care for your pets! I am currently working at a grocery store part-time. I will need at least a one week notice so I can make sure I can be there for your pets. I have no other obligations besides making sure your pets are happy! I am willing to do whatever makes your pets most comfortable. I love sitting on the couch and cuddling or playing outside in the yard! I also love going out on walks or for a treat! I can assist in crate training should that be needed. I am very flexible!

About: Hi! I'm Taite- the owner of Paws & Peace Pet & House Sitting. As a teacher and lifelong animal lover, caring for pets has always been a big part of my life. I share my home with my two cats, Twix and Snickers, and grew up with dogs of all sizes—from a tiny Pomeranian to a Newfoundland/Great Pyrenees mix—so I'm comfortable and experienced with pets of all shapes and sizes. I'm Pet First Aid & CPR certified, fully insured, and have over 12 years of pet care experience. My goal is to provide dependable, compassionate care so you can have peace of mind while you're away. If you'd like to learn more about me and the services I offer, be sure to check out my Facebook page, Paws & Peace Pet & House Sitting! Pet care is a natural part of my daily and weekly routine. As a teacher, I provide pet care before and after the school day, as well as during evenings, weekends, holidays, and school breaks. My schedule is carefully planned to ensure every pet receives the attention, exercise, feeding, medications (if needed), and companionship they deserve. Whether it's a quick drop-in visit, a leisurely walk, or overnight care, I prioritize reliability, communication, and consistency. Caring for animals isn't just something I do—it's something I genuinely enjoy, and I love building lasting relationships with both pets and their families. When caring for pets in a client's home, I strive to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow each owner's care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, fresh water, medications (if needed), potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. I also make sure litter boxes, cages, or outdoor areas stay clean and tidy. Beyond caring for your pets, I treat your home with the same respect I would my own. I can bring in mail or packages, water plants, take trash bins to the curb, adjust lights or blinds if requested, and ensure your home remains clean, secure, and well cared for while you're away. Communication is important to me, so I provide regular updates and photos throughout your time away, giving you peace of mind that your pets are happy, healthy, and in good hands.

Emylie was thorough and conscientious. She was very accommodating to the behavioral quirks of my very shy cat.

I’m very appreciative of Sam, I message her the day of asking if she could help me out with my dog. And she gladly did so. She took plenty of photos to show me that my dog was having a great time. Would definitely recommend her to anyone!
