“I am over pleased with Miriael. Fancy was well taken care of and learned some things about potty training that we have been working on prior to the booking. I will definitely be using her again. Also, I do think that she definitely deserves a tip, but I’m not able to leave what she deserves at the moment, but I will make it up on future bookings. Thumbs up to Miriael.”

About: I have always been drawn to animals. Since I was a little girl, I've cared for all types of animals, except spiders and snakes!! I have trained a boxer/blue heeler, mini pinscher, poodle, and jack russells. Senior dogs have also been in my care. I also enjoy walking dogs. My daily schedule is flexible because I am caring for my disabled child, who also loves animals. I would be open to weekly and weekend availability. I am reliable, respectful, trustworthy, and professional. Safety is my 1st concern and I would care for your fur babies as though they are my own.
About: I have taken care of my own personal dog since I was 8 years old, I bought her with my birthday money and she has been my best friend ever since. I’ve always had a love for animals and have dog sat a lot more in the recent years. I also have a cat I adopted several years ago that lives with me. I have experience administering medications and working with senior dogs, puppies, kittens etc. I also worked in a doggy daycare and got a lot of experience working there. I work from home, so my weekly schedule is very open and flexible. I’m able to accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits, and I can adjust my routine to meet each pet’s specific needs. Whatever you need or want me to do no matter how absurd you think it seems, I do not mind doing it if it helps your fur baby feel at home. I want your fur babies to feel comfortable with me and I want you to feel comfortable too.
About: I have been a dog and cat owner my entire life. We have a few ESA pets in our home for my disabled son. I am very familiar with training, walking, feeding, giving medications, and senior care. I have been a dog nanny for the last 3 years and ready to grow. I am a stay at home mom so I have plenty of morning and afternoon time to give. I am available on weekends and holidays for walks, house sitting & pet sitting. I have a fenced in yard and a bunch of toys and love to give. I love to play and work out with the pets if they like too. Water play in summer too. I am available to watch your pets at you home as well as do drop ins throughout the day.

“Emily did an incredible job with my pet. She walked him, took photos, and let me know how he was doing. She was so flexible and easy to work with, and it’s clear that she loves animals so much! Highly recommend booking with Emily!!”
“This was my first time using a pet sitter and got lucky in choosing Lauren. She handled everything with my cats exactly as I would have, and that’s the highest praise I can give. Will absolutely book again.”
“I highly recommend Olivia! She is reliable, responsible, and truly kind. She followed all the instructions, kept me updated, and took great care of both my cat and my home. Everything was clean and tidy when I returned. Most importantly, my cat loves her! She clearly cares about animals and takes the time to build trust with them. Knowing my cat was happy and well cared for made all the difference. I feel lucky to have found such a dependable and caring cat sitter. I will definitely book her again in the future!”
“Breanna was wonderful in taking care of our sweet cat while we were away for our wedding! We couldn’t have asked for better care and peace of mind on such a stressful week for us. Would highly recommend and will be booking with Breanna again!”
“Thanks for all you have done for my babies. Oreo can be a handful at times. House and litter boxes look good. If you need a reference just let me know. Just a little extra. Thanks Leslie”

I can offer long walks and play time and regular feeding as well as some couch time catching up on their favorite shows.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Darlington
About: Hi there! I am a lifelong animal lover with over 15 years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all breeds, ages, and personalities. My background includes working in both veterinary and pet insurance settings, so I’m very comfortable handling pets with all types of medical needs and administering medications safely and correctly (oral, topical, injectable, and more). I am also comfortable with other critters as needed on a case by case basis. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Animal Science with a concentration in Equine Science and Companion Animals, and I’ve dedicated my time outside of my 9-5 to helping pets live happy, healthy lives. I currently have two dogs and a cat, a turtle, a tortoise, and 5 fish tanks. This is an animal loving home without a doubt. I understand how stressful it can be to leave your furry family member behind when you travel or need extra help. My goal is to make things easier by providing reliable, compassionate care you can trust, so you can rest easy knowing your pet is in great hands. I work from home full-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for pets throughout the day. For boarding, that means I’m able to give them as much or as little attention as they want. Whether they’re social snugglers or prefer their own space. I keep a calm, comfortable environment and make sure their needs are always met. While we do have other animals in the home, I am able to provide a private place for your pet if needed, and typically do dedicate one private space for any cat boarders. Because I have a flexible schedule, I can also easily fit in drop-in visits before or after work, ensuring pets get reliable care and consistent routines. Pet care naturally fits into my day because it’s something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize. All animals must be dog and cat friendly. If you're boarding a cat, they will NOT have access to our cat since they're a bit more difficult to socialize. When caring for pets in my home, I focus on creating a calm, comfortable environment where the animal can feel safe and relaxed. I follow their normal routines as closely as possible regarding feeding times, litter maintenance, playtime, and quiet time! I also make sure they get the right balance of attention and independence based on their personality. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space and routines with the same respect and care I would my own. I pay close attention to any specific instructions for feeding, medications, or enrichment, and always take time to make pets feel loved and secure while their people are away. Communication is key for me, so I provide updates and photos to give you peace of mind every step of the way.
“Ionna was great at communicating with me before booking and the morning of. She even took my pup on a ride, which she loves! Harley seemed very happy when I picked her up. Recently moved to the area so it is great to find a sitter that we can trust.”
“I was last minute searching for someone to watch my 3 month old puppy during the day. Emily responded very promptly. She allowed me to drop off Aspen early in the morning before I went to work. I was sent many pictures throughout the day and updates on how Aspen was doing. Emily spent some time working on training Aspen which is much appreciated. Aspen was very tired after spending the day at Emily’s house and playing with her dog. I would definitely use Emily for doggy day care again!”
“Jessica took great care of my boy Boots, and kept me updated everyday along with pictures. They have a huge fence yard where the dog can run and play, it is the perfect atmosphere. She will definitely be Boot's caretaker next time I go out of town”

“Crystal was great!! I contacted her to pick up and drop off my dog at Doggy Daycare! She went above and beyond and stayed longer to take him out and feed him once he got home!

I work part time helping out with a dog daycare a few days a week and the rest of my time is spent at home with the pups! I have 2 fenced areas to be able to separate any dogs that may need to be and multiple indoor areas for them. If they are used to being crated at night/when you’re out just let me know. I have large crates for them if they do or plenty of beds and if they don’t!

All my animals needs are different and I’m here to provide that to lessen your stress ☺️ All day, all night!!! I am also able to travel. I drive a lot so I don’t mind if I have to travel a bit. I would love for the pet owners to give me a run down no matter what! Even if your animal is low maintenance. My dogs are high maintenance so I’m also used to that.
