About: I’ve had animals all my life, and would watch my friends pets growing up too. I’ve had everything from giant breads to little dogs and love them all. We have cats and dogs of our own. So it is part of our daily routine for feedings, potty breaks, and going for walks. We treat our fur babies as part of our family and make sure they get all the love and attention they deserve! We have a fenced in backyard, and our dogs are friendly. We also have the space to make sure they feel at home and welcomed.

“I just love how easy it is to contact Dana for any questions that I may have or to check up on Max. But what i really appreciate is the patience for keeping him until I can find a home. Thank you so much. I will recommend you to any and everybody.”

About: I grew up with a cat and have always enjoyed being around cats and caring for them. Family members have trusted me to stay with their cats while they’re away, providing them with companionship, playtime, feeding, and daily care.

“Mischa and Pasha had a great visit with Cheryl. They settled right in and came back home completely tuckered out. Cheryl also sent pictures of the pups during their stay which was great. I definitely would use her services again.”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 10 years, and nothing makes me happier than seeing a wagging tail and a happy pup! 🐕 From tiny puppies to senior dogs with special needs, I’ve had the joy of looking after dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Whether it’s going on long walks, giving belly rubs, or sticking to a special care routine, I treat every dog as if they were my own. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priority. ❤️ I’m currently attending Union University for nurse anesthesia. Being a graduate student gives me the perfect balance of structure and flexibility, which means I can easily make time for your furry friend. My schedule allows for breaks throughout the day, so I can stop by for walks, playtime, or just some extra love and attention. I genuinely enjoy spending time with pets — it’s the highlight of my day — and I love incorporating their care into my routine as a fun and rewarding part of my week. Your dog’s safety and happiness come first. I will always follow your care instructions closely. I believe trust is built through consistency, communication, and genuine love for animals — so you can feel confident your pup is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: While I don’t have any pets of my own, I have experience in taking care of family and friends pets, keeping them happy and healthy and having the owner satisfied with my work. I have fed, bathed, and walked pets all while keeping them safe. I work and volunteer part time so that leaves plenty of time to visit your pets! I can visit on tuesdays Wednesdays, and thursdays and some weekends! Unfortunately due to the apartment life I have no room to bring your pets to my home, which is also why I have no pets of my own, but at your home I will ensure that all your pet is safe and things will not harm him/her!

I can also travel to your home for let outs so that your baby is in the comfort of their home. I foster a dog here and there. (If needed i can keep separate with separate play times and out side times, ect. ) I have a little mini farm with horses, a mule, a blind calf, two LGD's, two pet pigs, and one barn cat. (all spoiled pets <3 ) I worked as a teachers assistant for 12 years, and did firefighting before i went full time as a sitter in 2017. I'm available night or day for let outs, play times, vet trips, ect. I petsit full time in my home or yours. Very flexible and will try to stick to your normal routine, such as feeding, letouts and play time. I have a fenced in yard and a fur baby of my own to keep your baby company.

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities throughout my life. Growing up, I always had a dog in the house, which helped me develop a strong love and understanding of animals from an early age. Friends, family members, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and stay overnight with their pets while they’re away. I genuinely love animals and enjoy making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’ve been asked back multiple times by the families I’ve helped, which reflects the trust and reliability I bring to every pet I care for. Pet care fits well into my daily routine. I currently work part-time cleaning homes and typically finish my workday and return home around 2:00 PM. This gives me plenty of time in the afternoons and evenings for walks, drop-in visits, playtime, feeding, and overnight care. I am hoping to make pet sitting a larger priority in my schedule and am committed to providing reliable, attentive care for every pet I work with. I make sure pets receive the attention, exercise, and companionship they need while their owners are away. Whether I am caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I treat every fur baby with the same love, attention, and care that I would give my own. I have a friendly pet who can provide companionship if your pet enjoys being around other animals. I understand that every pet has unique needs, routines, and preferences, and I am happy to accommodate specific requests to help them feel comfortable and safe. From feeding schedules and medication administration to extra playtime, walks, or special sleeping arrangements, I strive to provide personalized care that keeps both pets and owners happy.
