About: I have experience with an array of animals. I have personally owned Dobermans, Shih Tzus, a husky, and French Bulldogs! Over the past 3 years I have begun fostering and helping a bit in rescuing kittens and a few litters of stray dogs! Taking care of and helping animals is a true passion of mine! I am currently enrolled in hybrid college. I spend another portion of my time on the farm taking care of things that need done! With my schedule being flexible I have availability to adjust when needed for animal care duties! We have a property of about 46 acres with an electric fence for the horses and a gate. The animals would be housed in the home. Outside activity would vary based off of the animals specific needs! Dogs would be outside at least 5x a day!

About: I've taken care of pets since I was 10. My neighborhood frequently go to me when they need a dog/cat sitter for a week and I'm used to going over as many times as needed. I'm patient and have had puppies growing up. This job is exciting for me because I genuinely love and care for all animals. I find that they brighten my day and I'm prepared to help my community take care of their pets. I'm about to graduate and have plenty of free time throughout my weekdays and weekends that I'm not out of town for soccer. I'll have lots of flexible times so I'm confident my schedule will work for many. I have a golden doodle named Stanley that loves to play and run around my yard he is a friendly giant that my neighborhood has all come to love. He loves walks and going for car rides.

“Fantastic from start to finish. Cara is very communicative and kept our boy entertained and loved. I would highly recommend her 😍 thank you so much”

About: My property has 1-acre of fenced space where your pup can run around until their heart’s content. If you have a senior pup, a young puppy, or a dog with complex medical needs, you have found the right home. Having loved and cared for my own Akitas through major health challenges—including blindness—I am completely comfortable managing complex medication schedules, topical treatments, oral meds, and injections. As an experienced dog and puppy foster (who even once fostered a litter of nine puppies!), I understand canine body language and know how to support anxious or transitioning pets. Rest assured, your pup will be cared for and welcomed with open arms no matter their situation. Pet care is my full-time job right now. I am generally away from the home for no more than a couple of hours, and if I do need to be away for longer, I will ensure you are aware in advance. I have a fenced backyard and three dogs of my own who will keep your pup company. My own dogs are a senior male, fully blind American Akita, an adult female pug mix, and a male puppy pug mix (the adult female’s puppy). I ensure all dogs are kept separate during mealtime and, as needed, during playtime where dog toys may be involved. I have crates and playpens, extra dog dishes, and plenty of indoor and outdoor toys for your pup to use as much or as little as they want. My own dogs love to cuddle and sleep on the couch and bed, and your pup is welcome to as well, as long as it’s okay with you. I’m happy to provide updates throughout your pup’s stay based on a frequency you’d prefer to ensure you feel comfortable with their time in my care.

“Gabby was amazing when it came to taking care of our puppy Punky. They treated her like their own and just raced about how good she was. I will definitely use Gabby again in the future when we go on extended stays!!”

About: I have had the wonderful opportunity to spend time with many dogs of so many breeds and can’t see myself stopping! There such loving animals. I’m currently working full time and will have plenty of time to play with the Dogs. I can even take them to work with me! I have a wide open back yard and plenty of room for dogs to run. I live on a small farm with a few other animals. I’m a very trustworthy person. I’m also a kennel technician/Dog trainer so I spend time with dogs almost every day.

About: I am a new cat mom and have learned the ropes to really care for a cat. I love playing with cats and will accommodate anything needed! I can be a high maintenance cat mom so don’t feel embarrassed by anything you would want done while I’m there! 🤍

About: I have 2 cats of my own, one of which has an imbalanced pH. He takes daily medication to keep that under control and a special diet. I have experience in administering vaccines and oral medication. I scoop litter boxes daily and take great pride in the care I can provide.

Heather P.

About: I have 20+ years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, personalities, and needs. I also run a nonprofit animal sanctuary, so animal care is a major part of my everyday life. I have experience with rescue animals, seniors, shy and anxious pets, medication routines, mobility limitations, and animals who simply need a little more patience and understanding. Senior and special-needs pets are especially welcome. I’m comfortable helping with stairs, mobility support, medications, slower-paced walks, and adjusting care to whatever helps your pet feel safest and most comfortable. I’m home full-time, which means your pet gets plenty of supervision, companionship, enrichment, and one-on-one attention rather than being left alone for long stretches. Most importantly, I treat every animal as an individual and try to keep their routine as familiar and stress-free as possible while they’re in my care. I’m home full-time and animal care is already a major part of my daily routine through my nonprofit sanctuary and rescue. That gives me a very flexible schedule for feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, medications, enrichment, and plenty of one-on-one attention throughout the day. Safety and comfort always come first. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible and take introductions slowly when other animals are involved. I’m experienced with rescue animals, seniors, anxious pets, and animals who need extra supervision or their own space. I’m also comfortable with medications, mobility assistance, crates, gates, and keeping pets safely separated when needed.

About: I recently left a 16 year career where I grew from caseworker to supervisor to manager. I decided to pursue opportunities to care for animals, as animals are my true passion. I grew up on a small farm where we had cows, horses, pigs, chickens, dogs, cats, canaries and hamsters. I have always loved animals and enjoy caring for them. I look forward to caring for your beloved pets. I recently left my full time job to explore pet care services. I will do all I can to be available for you and your pets’ needs at anytime. I can provide care in my home, or stay in your home, wherever your pets are most comfortable. I would be able to stay the night in your home if you prefer, or stop by your home as you request. This would be determined by what is best for you and your pets.
