About: I bring extensive professional experience in animal care and behavior, including years in shelter leadership and hands-on behavior work with fearful, anxious, and reactive animals. My background includes behavior assessment, stress reduction, enrichment planning, and individualized care for dogs who struggle with transitions, confinement, or unfamiliar people. I am especially comfortable working with dogs who need structure, patience, and clear communication rather than force or correction. I prioritize low stress handling, predictable routines, and meeting dogs where they are emotionally, not just physically. My goal is always to keep animals safe, supported, and understood while their people are away. I maintain a flexible, well-managed schedule that allows me to accommodate a wide range of client needs, including weekdays, weekends, and varying visit times, with appropriate advance notice. I care for pets by balancing structure with relationship-building. I focus on creating predictable routines, clear communication, and calm expectations while also prioritizing rapport, confidence, and emotional safety. I pay close attention to body language and stress signals and adjust care in real time to meet each pet where they are emotionally. Rather than forcing compliance, I help animals work through fear, overstimulation, or uncertainty at a pace they can handle. Whether in my home or a client’s home, my goal is to create a low-stress environment where pets feel safe, understood, and supported, which allows genuine progress and trust to develop. My pets at home enjoy structure along with play and lots of quiet time. My dog, Albany, enjoys finding hidden treats in a fenced backyard. My three cats, Duchess, Wanda, and Addie, enjoy plenty of naps, wand toy play time, and many hours of cuddling and watching tv.

I am self-employed and have very flexible hours between Monday and Friday. Along with that I am willing to care for your pets during some weekends. I have grown up surrounded by animals, so it comes to no surprise on how to care for your pets in a safe way. I am able to create a safe environment in my own home as well in yours.

About: I've had & taken care of cats & dogs since I was 7 years old! Over the past 5 years I've moved into caring for the pets of other's just as a favor to friends & family. Now I want to leave corporate America & care for furry family members professionally. I'm currently working on making pet sitting my full time job so my availability is completely open for around the clock care whether your pet is an early riser or a night owl! I prefer to care for pets in their own space as I have roommates at this time & our landlord doesn't allow pets on property.
About: As your pet's second best friend, I offer tailored care, genuine love, and a paw-sitively unforgettable experience! I am well educated in dog training, ensuring they’re mentally and physically stimulated, to overall pet health. I take care of my dog to the fullest extent, your dog will be treated all the same as a new member of the pack! To ensure safety and health, we don’t play right after eating to avoid bloat, I am very conscious of heat on their paws when walking on different surfaces, I avoid rawhide treats and go with homemade or very natural treats instead, and those are just scratching the surface of do’s and don’ts! I keep a structured but flexible routine, which allows me to give your dog plenty of attention, exercise, and consistency. I prioritize walks, potty breaks throughout the day, and lots of playtime and enrichment. I’m home often and very intentional about making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Whether your dog needs structure, cuddles, or high energy engagement, I adapt to their personality and routine to make their stay feel as close to home as possible! Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a well-socialized dog, Dilo, who has a background in working in high stress environments to not be reactive. Nonetheless, I always do slow introductions to ensure everyone feels safe and comfortable. If needed, I can crate or provide separate spaces for rest and decompression. Inside my home, I maintain a clean, structured environment with plenty of space for play and relaxation. I closely monitor interactions, follow feeding instructions carefully, and stick to your dog’s routine as closely as possible so they maintain some sense of routine while being away from home.

I have taken care of large dogs as well as small so I am very educated when it comes to animal care without different breeds. I am interested in house sitting, dog walking, and even staying over night if needed!

“Avery was AMAZING with our German Shepherd puppy Maverick! She kept us in the loop daily with pictures and texts. She took him on multiple walks a day, got him a pup cup, and even took him to PetSmart to pick out a new toy. If you’re looking for a sitter who will dedicate 100% of her time to your dog, Avery is the one!”
“Highly recommend! Great care and affordable. I received pictures and video of my dog during her stay. It was like having her stay with family. Already planning to bring my dog back for our next trip. Thanks Richelle!”
About: I have experience with many breeds and ages, and have been the primary carer for our current two dogs since birth. What can I say dogs just like me . Retired from my chosen career path now full-time homemaker. I currently watch our two pups and we would love a new friend to play with! I have a nice, big fenced backyard, and a fenced in front porch. My current dogs go out about every 2-3 hours during the day, but I can adhere to your dogs schedule if different. I often spend lots of time outside with my dogs, playing, and hanging out enjoying the day.
“Hazbleydy I. & her husband were great! My dog can be very anxious and is usually not fond of new people but she had a great time at their house. Hazbleydy kept me updated with pictures the entire time, and even went out to get supplies for my dog that had ran out of during the stay. I would highly recommend her!”

About: I bring extensive professional experience in animal care and behavior, including years in shelter leadership and hands-on behavior work with fearful, anxious, and reactive animals. My background includes behavior assessment, stress reduction, enrichment planning, and individualized care for dogs who struggle with transitions, confinement, or unfamiliar people. I am especially comfortable working with dogs who need structure, patience, and clear communication rather than force or correction. I prioritize low stress handling, predictable routines, and meeting dogs where they are emotionally, not just physically. My goal is always to keep animals safe, supported, and understood while their people are away. I maintain a flexible, well-managed schedule that allows me to accommodate a wide range of client needs, including weekdays, weekends, and varying visit times, with appropriate advance notice. I care for pets by balancing structure with relationship-building. I focus on creating predictable routines, clear communication, and calm expectations while also prioritizing rapport, confidence, and emotional safety. I pay close attention to body language and stress signals and adjust care in real time to meet each pet where they are emotionally. Rather than forcing compliance, I help animals work through fear, overstimulation, or uncertainty at a pace they can handle. Whether in my home or a client’s home, my goal is to create a low-stress environment where pets feel safe, understood, and supported, which allows genuine progress and trust to develop. My pets at home enjoy structure along with play and lots of quiet time. My dog, Albany, enjoys finding hidden treats in a fenced backyard. My three cats, Duchess, Wanda, and Addie, enjoy plenty of naps, wand toy play time, and many hours of cuddling and watching tv.
About: I will always hold a special place in my heart for animals, I’ve been fortunate enough for the past 15 years to care for my pet dog and cat through their stages of life. While also taking care of neighborhood pets as well as having two years of experience in a breeding clinic where I took care of, washed, fed, and walked the mothers and puppies. I am self-employed and have very flexible hours between Monday and Friday. Along with that I am willing to care for your pets during some weekends. I have grown up surrounded by animals, so it comes to no surprise on how to care for your pets in a safe way. I am able to create a safe environment in my own home as well in yours.
