“Jordan came through last minute for us and was awesome! She has an awesome house for dogs and it was well worth the drive from Austin to drop my pups off. Provided lots of pictures and updated. Will definitely book again when needed!”
“Vanessa watched my GP for a few weeks as we were traveling and I could not be happier. It was a perfect place and family for my puppy dog. When traveling, will be happy to leave him again with Vanessa in the future. Highly recommended!”
“My mini Aussie stayed with Jormary for 8 days, normally my dog is quite nervous in new surroundings, Jormary took such great care of her, gave extra attention so she would feel less anxious. I was getting daily updates and pictures. Jormary followed instructions to the t, I am very happy with the care Jormary provided for my pet. Would definitely recommend and I am certain I will book again!”
“Our dog has separation issues & is often a little picky about his friends, but he settled down with Rodnie & her pups nicely for the weekend. Rodnie allowed him to feel at home...... sleeping on her sofa!! She sent us an update so we were ensured all was well. We have already booked him again with Rodnie for his next stay!”
“The pups had a fantastic stay! Megan took great care of them and kept in touch with us. It was their first stay with a sitter so it was a learning experience and we’re so grateful.”
“Sara took good care of Ruby during her stay. Sara's dogs and a few boarders were there to keep Ruby occupied as well as Sara's family. When I took Ruby home she was tuckered out, I'm sure from a lot of playing. I know Ruby would be excited to visit again.”
“Monica was patient, kind, and very attentive to all of my pup's needs. She was also very communicative and followed through on all aspects of care. 10/10 would recommend Monica for your pet sitting needs.”
“I wish I could give even more than 5 stars! Kari, Jonathan and family did an outstanding job taking care of our dog, Lily, and cat, Bella. Lily got lots of walks, and they both got lots of love and attention. Kari also did a great job providing daily updates, which made us feel good about the care they were getting. We will definitely ask them to watch our fur babies again!”
“Elisa was the very best sitter I have used. She was so professional and personal in her services. My Auggie was treated to a wonderful home away from home during his stay. She would send pictures and call me with any information she thought I needed about Auggie.”
“Princie is great with my dog. Princie was so accommodating and patient to my questions and inquiries. My dog is very comfortable there with boarding as she gets anxious and nervous in new environments and people. Princie ensured she was comfortable and able to settle in well, along with their dog as well. Clean and tidy home. So glad to have found her. Will definitely be using Princie again very soon!”
“I always have a less worried/stressed travel when I drop Ollie off with Tinisha. As always, he had a good time and she kept me updated and sent pics/videos. Thank you Tinisha!”
“Stewart did a great job with my two large dogs. He was very welcoming during the meet and greet and it carried forward to the dog’s 5 day stay. Stewart communicated with me regularly and kept me up to date on how the dogs were doing. I would book again.”
“Bekah is a very responsive and amazing caregiver. I can say with absolute reservation, that Bekah took care of my puppy as one of her own. I would definitely recommend Bekah if anyone is looking for someone to take care of their dogs!”
About: I'm a veterinary technician, I have 20 yrs experience in taking care of dogs and cats. I am CPR certified and I can administer medications if needed. Besides my medical background as a animal lover, I can offer great companionship to your best friend while your gone. I currently have a 7 month old Australian shepherd who loves to play and can also offer friendship. I've been taking care of my friends and family's pets while they go on vacation since I was 19 yrs old. I'm confident in my ability to take care of dogs. I'm currently not working and staying home with our kids and animals. I walk our dog in the morning then hang out the rest of the day, my kids play with our dog. I live on 5 acres but we have fenced off an area behind our house for our dog and goats. I have a plastic kid pool to help them stay cool in the summer. I typically feed my pets twice a day and a treat mid-day. My house can get pretty loud with my kids yell and screaming when then play. My kids are 10 yr (son) and 9 yrs(daughter) old, I have a husband who loves to play with the kids and dog, it can get a little crazy at our house. I also have a 7 month old mini Australian shepherd, she is a shy girl at first but then gets crazy when she decides she likes you. I have 5 cats some like dogs and some tolerate them and just judge. I also have 2 goats in the backyard, they are very nice but will give a warning if something happens that they don't like. All my pets have vaccines and have been dewormed.

“Lili took care of our 2 cats for 12 days and did a fantastic job. Our house was kept super clean and our cats were super happy too. Loved all the photos and videos she sent us to keep our mind at ease that our cats were in good hands. Would highly recommend Lili!”
About: I I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and energy levels. My background includes daily feeding routines, administering basic medications, leash walks, playtime, and providing lots of affection and attention. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, so I take the time to learn their habits, preferences, and comfort levels. I work a remote full time job. If I’m needed more frequently, all I’d ask is to be allowed to work from your location. Otherwise, I’m on a 9-5 work schedule and can be available for one hour, typically between 11am and 1pm, and every evening. Pet care fits smoothly into my daily and weekly routine. I am available after 3:30 pm daily, which allows me to reliably focus on feeding times, walks, okay sessions, and quality one-on-one care in the afternoons and evenings.
“A lot of pics with my pups contentedly eating and smiling while being petted. My dogs were happy pups while under Lindsey’s care. I will ask Lindsey to take care of my pups in the future!”
“We had a lovely experience booking Andrea. We got lots of updates, pictures, and videos of our kitties. Andrea was very thoughtful and gave our cat his medicine even when we were about to be home so we had one less thing to do after a hectic day. I would definitely book again if our cats needed watching ☺️”
About: We have worked with animals in all stages of life. Have helped train in the past. We love dogs and love the opportunity to take care of yours. We will be able to come home for lunch to spend a good amount of time with them mid day. We both currently work full time and are free after 3pm Friday until Sunday evening. We know it can be difficult trusting your fur baby with someone new or just not having them by your side but we would love to do anything to help you and your fur baby feel comfortable with their stay. We have a park right by our house to walk and intact with other dogs. You dog would have the opportunity to run around play on our property where we would take your dog for a walk and play. Although we both work full time we would make your fur babies our top priority. Our house is puppy/ dog proof. We want you to feel comfortable with us as well as allowing us to take care of your baby.
About: Hey there! Taking care of animals is a passion of mine. The unconditional love they give us is just a great feeling. So a little about me, I went to Tarleton State for Animal Science. I want the animals to be comfortable with me and in the environment. Animals deserve extra love and attention, specially when you’re busy all day or going out of town. I’ve worked as a veterinary technician with animals for 8+ years, as well as taking care of animals outside of work. I love all sorts of animals and think they deserve the same care as humans get! Dogs have feelings too! I believe animals need to go out a lot and get exercise as well as socializing. Dogs need just as much love as we need! I will always try to accommodate my schedule to make sure the fur babies have plenty of time to get some fresh air, potty break and some love during the day! When I care of clients fur babies, I always make sure to follow your guidelines with your babies. That being if they needed to be leash walked or they get to run free in the yard.
“I appreciate the help I have received since July 2025 with the drop ins for my fur babies to go potty. With out Tinisha's acceptance I would not have been able to start my new job. Lots of hugs and thank you!”
“My sweet older cat needs 2x daily visits & I was nervous to leave him alone for a full week. Marissa was so reliable & gave him so much attention that I had a great time away - and so did he! She is a great communicator which helped me feel better - sent cute pics of them interacting & showing clearly how much attention she gave him. Absolutely 5 of 5 stars.”
“Jennifer did a wonderful job taking care of Castiel, Crowley, and Lilith. She was caring, attentive, and clearly took the time to understand each of their personalities. I especially appreciated how patient she was with Crowley, who is a rescue and still getting used to humans. By the end of the stay, she had earned his confidence, which says a lot about her calm and compassionate approach with animals. I felt comfortable knowing my cats were in good hands, and I will definitely consider booking her again in the future. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”
About: Hi there! I’m Emma, and I’ve spent the last two decades dedicated to the happiness and well-being of animals. Whether you have a high-energy puppy, a senior cat needing gentle pets, or a quiet rabbit, I have the experience and the heart to make them feel right at home while you’re away. Why Choose Me? With 20 years of hands-on experience, I’ve seen it all. I am deeply familiar with the unique needs of: Dogs of all sizes: From tiny Chihuahuas to gentle giants. Cats of all ages: I’m an expert at reading feline body language and providing specialized care for kittens or seniors. Small Animals: I have a soft spot for rabbits and understand their specific social and dietary needs. A Built-In Social Club One of the best parts of staying at my home is the company! I am proud to have a very welcoming "welcoming committee" consisting of: 2 Friendly Dogs: Who love making new playmates. 3 Social Cats: Who are accustomed to visitors and happy to share their space. Your pet won't just be "boarded"—they’ll be part of the family. They will have plenty of supervision, cuddles on the couch, and friends to keep them entertained. I know how hard it is to leave your pets behind. That’s why I prioritize clear communication. You can expect: Regular photo and video updates. Strict adherence to your feeding and medication schedules. A safe, clean, and loving environment. I can’t wait to meet your furry family members! I'm currently working from home so I'm available at any time during the weekday and weekends to prioritize care and activities. I'm looking forward to providing the level of care your furry friend is used to receiving at home! I have a fully fenced-in backyard and a built-in "social club" to keep your furry friend happy and safe. I can easily crate dogs if needed as well, although most of the time your furry friend will be treated as a member of our family, allowed on the couch and bed with us if they choose.
About: I have dogs and cats of my own, so caring for pets has always been a natural part of my life. For about four years, I have consistently house-sat and pet-sat for family and friends, often caring for multiple dogs and cats at the same time. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, playtime, walks, litter boxes, giving pets attention, and keeping homes tidy while owners are away. I understand how important it is to have someone dependable caring for your pets, and I always treat them like they are my own.
“Kayla has been reliable and we love the photos she sent of our Skitty. She was very communicative—letting us know when she arrived, bringing in a package for us, and responding promptly to all of my messages. Her daughter also clearly knows how to meet animals for the first time—she stayed still and let Skitty approach and sniff her hand. For a 4-year-old, that really impressed us and seemed to help Skitty feel comfortable. It was reassuring to know Skitty was in such capable and trustworthy hands”
About: I’ve worked at a boarding facility working with dogs and cats. I cleaned the kennels, fed, watered and played with the pets that was being boarded there as well as baths when they had an accident in their runs. I’m currently not working so I’m available at all hours and day! I’m looking to make this a full time job so I’m available whenever you need me! I have a small kennel currently but I have 4 dogs, 2 of which love other dogs but will crate the others for the safety of your pet!

“I left my Australian Shepard with Isabelle for daycare for two days, as I was dropping him off for the second day he was so excited to see Isabelle which I knew it meant he was in good hands. Isabelle was always responsive and gave me updates while he was with her. She also took him along for their daily walk which I appreciated. Thank you again Isabelle!”
About: What could be better than a dog vacay at a real ranch? 2 ponds with bass and catfish to sniff out! Plenty of space to run and play with the other pups! There is a secure fence that surrounds the main house and another perimeter fence, that way the pups can only say hello to the cattle from a far. :) A special notice: there are cats and chickens on the property that roam around with the ranch dogs. Please keep this in mind as we love our chickens and cats as much as our dogs. I highly suggest a meet and greet for the newcomers before confirming a reservation at the ranch. The pups living the sweet life at the Sweet Ranch give it a unanimous "all paws up"!
“Cheyenne was great! She was accommodating and seemed very experienced. This was our puppies first rover and she was very understanding about accidents and even gave us some tips since he was very anxious.”
About: As a kid I was taught responsibility by caring for our horses, cats, dogs, birds, fish and guinea pigs. I’ve had pets all my life! My mom’s cat almost died of a bacterial infection in her mouth and I’ve helped administer antibiotics to her until she got better. I had a cat who had kidney disease and needed to have IV fluids every week. My other cat had to be mouth fed with a syringe as well as monitored via thermometer up his butt. I have house and pet sit for friends and family that have multiple pets, most recently for a friend that had 6 dogs of all sizes! I am an active individual so walking will be a treat for them and me! :) I have given dogs and cats baths and also cared for dogs in heat. I have a very open and wide range of availability and I am available most days, including weekends and holidays as I rarely ever go out of town. It would be great to develop some long term relationships with new pets and their owners! Repeats are always great but not expected. I will do what I can to work with your schedule and the needs of you and your fur child. I will do my best to maintain consistency and high-level care when it comes to your pet. Each pet is different and I try to get to know each one individually in order to gain their trust and yours and provide the best care possible. Often times, I will send pictures to the pet owner, especially if it is a new client or a pet owner is out of town for an extended amount of time. I am easily reachable and try to communicate clearly about wants, needs, and scheduling. I prefer to do a meet and greet prior to providing a service, but it is not mandatory, especially for last minute bookings! We have a small yard in front and neighbors that will walk their dogs but they are all on leashes and well behaved. We live in a newer and safe community and I often take my dog for a walk around the neighborhood. There is a small park down the street which is nice too. We also have a fenced in backyard which can be seen from the inside of the house or the porch. We live in a one story house, but there are steps from the porch to the yard outback. My husband lives with me and has also grown up with cats and dogs. We currently have one male cat Santiago who gets along great with our male Chihuahua Juan Pablo and also got along great with my former senior Maine coon cat. He is a bit weary of strangers at first, but he will just hide until he gets to know you a bit and then you won’t be able to get him off of your lap. We have a gate in between the kitchen and the rest of the house so that the Chihuahua can have free rain to walk around and not have to be in his cage when we are not home. In the event that we have another animal in the house we can keep the Chihuahua in his cage. We also have two bedrooms and two baths that can be used to separate animals.The Chihuahua is very friendly and gets along great with the cat. He is also a bit skittish at first with strangers but once he gets to know you all he wants to do is give you kisses. He is very non-aggressive and barely ever barks. He is also very friendly. I feed my cat both wet and dry food twice a day in his food dish and he has water out constantly. I feed the dog twice a day, sometimes dry food, and sometimes refrigerated dog food. I let the dog out several times a day and we go for a daily walk as well. I clean the kitty litter box once a day. I snuggle and cuddle with both of them as much as possible, and play fetch with the dog at various points throughout the day.
“Jax seemed to have had a fun time spending the day with Jordan and her pets. Jordan was great at sending me updates and pictures. Jax will be staying a few days with Jordan in the near future so it was great for them to spend a full day together getting to know each other.”
About: I’ve had dogs since I was little and into college. I have a very sweet 3 year old Great Pyrenees mix and she is amazing with other dogs. We have a huge yard for your fur baby to run around in and during the holidays and starting 2026, I will be working fully remote, so your baby will have all the attention it needs. Hi! Starting mid Dec 2025 and all off 2026, I will be working fully remote, your fur baby will get all the attention they need! I can let them out in the morning, then we can take a walk around lunch time and let them out as they need in the fully fenced in backyard! Weekdays and Weekends are full of cuddles! I have a huge fenced in backyard and a 3 year old fur baby myself. Pets are allowed on furniture (unless you explicitly do not allow this for your baby).
About: Hello my name is Cayla. I’m from Houston, Tx and I've been an animal lover my whole life. I’ve raised other animals in FFA for my high school years while alson having other house hold pets within the years ( rabbit, turtle, dogs, and fish). I’m choosing to do Rover so I can build clientele and so I can expand my knowledge on dogs outside my pit bull and a few other breeds I’ve dealt with within my family and friends. Hopefully I’m someone you’ll love and trust around your home and your four-legged best friend. I do work from home and only work 4 days out the week so it's no hassle making sure everything and everyone is doing great. During the booking process I do ask for a routine so I can keep everything consistent. I do have doggie treats, extra blankets, training pads, and doggie toys I keep on stand by. In the morning I will open cages and let them move around freely aslong as im home and awake. If they need medication I have no problem giving it to them aswell, I do work from home so that will not be an issue.
About: I have experience caring for dogs for friends and family, including walks, feeding, and playtime. As a mom, I’m naturally patient, attentive, and nurturing, I treat every dog like part of my own family. I keep you updated, follow instructions carefully, and make sure your pet gets the best care every time. As a full-time student and stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule and enjoy getting outside. I’d love to spend that time walking and caring for dogs and cats I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions from the owner. I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their family is away.

Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to watch their pets because I treat every animal like my own—making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. My goal is always to provide a calm, reliable environment where pets get plenty of attention, activity, and love. I was laid off a few months ago from my last job so I have plenty of time to care and love your dog. My home is also spacious and I have a large fenced in back yard with a back porch. I have a fenced in backyard with plenty of room. I also live in a reasonably sized home and have two young children that will love and play with them.

In the evenings, I dedicate time to more focused activities, whether it’s a training session for puppies using positive reinforcement techniques or calming routine care for senior pets.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for quite a while! It started with trick training which turned into completely 6 months at a dog training school and earning a certificate in canine training and behavioral specialist. I am confident in handling and caring for the most difficult pups! From nervous and anxious dogs to high energy working dogs, I am willing to create a safe and effective boarding/care experience for them. My whole life revolves around my dogs so your pups will be loved and cared for during their stay. I have a schedule that allows me to fit any pet care needs. My dogs get tons of outside times, walks, and potty breaks throughout the day so whatever plan your pup needs we can accommodate! I am flexible on creating a system that works best for you pets. I can house dogs that are not good in crates and well as dogs that need to be crated. I have pet cameras throughout the home so I can keep watch at all times! We can come up with a system that works best for you pets! Whether that be multiple walks per day or a special feeding plan!
“I was very lucky to find Katrina, who sat for my dog on very short notice. I even needed a couple extra hours, and she graciously kept her for longer than agreed upon, which I am very grateful for! She responded very quickly to all communications including initial sitting request, and seems like a very nice and straightforward person... she gave me every reason to highly recommend! My dog was very calm and relaxed when I picked her up as well.”
About: As a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience at a professional boarding facility caring for over 20 dogs at once, I understand the responsibility that comes with looking after someone’s beloved pet. I treat every dog as if they were my own—because I know how hard it is to trust just anyone with your fur baby. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and dependable experience for your pet, giving you peace of mind while they enjoy tail-wagging adventures. I am a full time student and taking the summer off. I am basically free for the summer to help out if you are not feeling well, working late, or last minute walks. I am currently only available for dog walks. The care will need to be taken place at the pet owners home. Due to my apartments restrictions.
About: We have raised 3 different dogs together. Two of those furr babies required medical care and special diets, so we are always very attentive and careful with all pets needs! We recently lost our precious boy River, due to his liver disease and we miss his presence tremendously. So having other pets over truly helps keep us going and having a boost of morale. With that being said, we will give your pet 100% of our attention at all times. You can trust your pet will be supervised and cared for all day. At least one of us is always home to supervise when we are dog sitting so your pet is never alone. We have a small dog park at our complex for some outdoor fun time, and can provide daily walks as well to ensure they get more exercise! We have made our home safe for your dog keeping certain things out of reach. I can update you regularly with picture updates as well!
About: Hello!! My names Tatum I’ve taken care of pets my whole life, my best friend when i was born was a weenie dawg, but i’ve had 4 dogs total in my life. I currently have 3 cuddly cats and a 1yr old, big ol handsome lab! I can do day or overnight sitting in my own apartment, I know there’s no straight access to a backyard :(( but i take my dog to the apartments dog park twice a day for 30-90mins. My apartment also has a nice big field right outside my door that i take them to go potty as many times needed! I live with my fiance and we work opposite shifts so someone is always awake! I don’t have any experience with shot medications but i sure know how to hide a pill in some chicken or cheese! We have plenty of toys to play with and my lab LOVES making new friends, he always has a ton of energy to keep your furr baby busy! If your dog needs to be crated or isn’t crate trained i can accommodate that, i have big crate here or you’re welcome to bring your own. Im available for overnight boarding/day sitting on the weekends (Fri@4:00pm - Sun@11:00pm) I work full time(M-F) 2 minutes away from my apartment and can go home on breaks. And they wouldn’t mind if i needed to leave for 10 minutes for a potty break. So if you absolutely need me to watch on a weekday i can make accommodations. My fiance will be home during the day since he works an opposite shift but probably asleep. I also have a camera in the living room. We can crate if crate trained if you feel more comfortable with that! My puppy had a bad chewing habit when he was little, so we only keep the floors clean (except for toys of course) I can easily crate your dog if needed. Dogs are allowed on furniture for maximum cuddles :)
About: I'm an animal lover! I always had animals growing up; having cats & dogs. Also had a guinea pig, a chinchilla, several birds, a turtle, bunnies and bearded dragons. Our furbabies are like our children! I am a professional petsitter, fostering dogs & cats, training them and rescuing animals. Currently, I have 4 cats (mine) & 2 bearded dragons and 1 small dog (mom's). I have experiences with seniors and blind furbabies. I also have experiences dealing with flight risk, severe anxiety pets and oral medication as well as injections. **DROP-IN VISIT** I live in Taylor, I can travel to Hutto, Granger, southeast of GT, East of Round Rock, Thorndale and Coupland. **BOARDING - Requirements: * Non-aggressive/low/medium energy (must be ok with other pets) * 100% house-trained includes trained to not chew on household items * Current on all vaccinations and flea prevention * Male felines must be neutered I ask you to provide food and bedding for your furbabies because every pet is different, has different lifestyles and eating/sleeping habits, toys. I have plenty of bowls and plenty of crates (XS, S, M, L, XL & XXL) including a 3 tier crate (for cats) if needed. My schedule is flexible, I'm almost always home. If weather permits, I enjoy going out for long hikes or going to parks/neighborhood for walks. ** Boarding & Housesitting - I'm available 7 days a week. The potty break/meal schedule is flexible on my end. They can go out often for potty breaks, to explore, fetch, and enjoy the sun as they please. Also, will provide outdoor play with engagement of other pups and can do some training as well. ** Housesitting - I will spend the nights with them. Sometimes I will be away for a few hours unless you instruct me for a specific time, such as how long it is ok to leave your pets alone, I will follow your preference. They are welcome to tag along for the ride if they enjoy car rides. -- During my free time I volunteer as a pet rescue member with Trapping, Rescue and Pet Recovery Service (TRAPRS), a non-profit organization. I have been with TRAPRS since they were founded in 2019. When I'm scheduled to pet sit, I will not be available to do a rescue. Only time I'll be away is if someone is able to secure an animal, Ill be out for a quick scan for microchip or if I'm scheduled to drop-in to visit other clients' homes. (I want to be transparent about what I do). I know it can be stressful leaving your family member with a stranger, but you can be confident that your furbaby/ies will be treated as one of the family; given plenty of love, hugs, belly scratches, treats, play time and walks during their stay. I have a fenced yard for your pup(s) to explore, do their business, enjoy the fresh air & flirt with the sun, and play fetch. I will send photos and videos of your furbaby having a great time! You are welcome to reach out to check on them at any time. They will be in good paws!

About: Hello! My name is Jordan and I've been passionate towards all animals my entire life and have experience with a variety of different species. I've worked as an animal care intern at a wildlife rehab and as a kennel technician where my primary duties were to work closely with veterinary staff to provide care for animals of all shapes and sizes. This experience plus a life long history with animals has allowed me to recognize each pet's individual personalities so that I may tailor my care to fit their exact needs. My goal is to treat your pets with respect and warmth in order to ensure their happiness while you’re away. I'm sensitive, flexible and empathetic to the individual needs of your pet so that their time apart from you is happy and stress free. I'm communicative and open so that you can rest assured knowing how much fun your pet is having under my care. As a pet parent of many different species myself, I understand the dedication and love you have for your pets and I understand the desire for an accountable, kind caregiver. I am also able to accommodate any special requests, such as if you would prefer your dog be crated during certain times, if your pet needs medications administered during the day and much more. Additionally, I have experience with invertebrates, reptiles, birds, small mammals, dogs and cats. I live on 20 acres of mowed and maintained land with a secure fence that will give your babies plenty of space to run around and explore. In addition, I provide a cozy, peaceful home environment where your pet is welcome to explore, settle in, and relax at their own pace. With plenty of comfortable spaces to lounge, play, and feel secure, I strive to create an stress-free atmosphere that helps every pet feel right at home during their stay. If I’m going to your home, I will be respectful and courteous to any rules and maintain the standard of care you treat your animals with. Being a stay-at-home mom gives me the flexibility to care for pets in a way that truly fits their individual needs. Because I’m home throughout the day, I can adjust feeding times, walks, play, and quiet moments based on each pet’s personality, age, and energy level. This flexibility means my care isn’t one-size-fits-all. If your pet needs more frequent bathroom breaks, extra exercise, or just a little reassurance and companionship, I’m able to respond right away instead of sticking to a strict timetable and I can easily monitor changes in behavior or health. My daily routine may be full, but it’s adaptable—and that makes all the difference in giving pets the individualized attention they deserve. In my home, pets are welcomed into a calm, supervised environment where they can relax and follow a consistent routine. When caring for your pets at your home, I focus on maintaining their familiar routine—feeding, walks, playtime, and any special needs—so they feel comfortable and secure. My hands-on experience working with many types of animals—different species, breeds, ages and temperaments—gives me the confidence to handle everything. Whether you need me to care for your scaly, feathered, or furry friends, my goal is always the same: to make sure each pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while their family is away.

“My dog absolutely LOVED Kimmie from the very first meeting. And my pup can be somewhat reserved around new people so that told me all I needed to know about Kimmie’s ability to connect to pets. Kimmie is very professional, reliable and trustworthy. I would highly recommend her.”

“Kayla was great! Came for a meet and greet/walk with our dog and was so great with him! We haven’t left him with people besides family very much, so was very pleased with how great she was with him and thankful to know she’ll take good care of our fur baby!”
About: I grew up in an animal shelter. Sounds crazy right? Well, it's true. My mom has always worked around animals(and still does) so I was always right by her side. Whether it be at animal shelters, helping with adoptions, walking, feeding, giving medications. Anything to be involved ! Then she became a Veterinarian. So of course, when I got old enough, I worked at her clinic. I've truely worked with animals my whole life and have always had animals of my own. I am currently working as an Animal Rescue Coordinator each day but would love to further my pet care business . My fur babies are my children and I treat them as so. You will always be able to find comfort knowing that I will treat your fur babies with the same love and care as my own! My favorite thing to do is spend time with my 3 dogs. A few things we love doing are going to the dog park, playing fetch, frisbee, going to the lake to swim, agility, hiking, and of course getting frozen yogurt! I would be more than happy to spend time with your pup doing these things. I'm sure they deserve it! I can't wait to spoil your pup and put your mind at ease knowing he/she is loved, safe, and happy while you're away. Your fur babies deserve the best! I currently work full time in VetMed but I have Fri-Sun off. This is when I’ll offer pet services. I’m hoping to offer full time care eventually. I care for pets in my home as if they were my own. They are allowed on furniture/beds if the owner is okay with this. I have doggy gates for separation of other animals if needed. Pets are never left unattended in my home. If I must leave for any reason, your pet must be kenneled in my home.

We have 1 budgie, 2 cockatiels, 3 dogs, and 2 kittens!
