About: I've taken care of and loved dogs my whole life from the sweetest pitbulls, to little chihuahuas, big goofy golden doodles and everything in between. Most recently, I’ve been caring for and training my own puppy over the past four months. I'm currently in school part time, so I have plenty of time to care for your family members. I'm available for dog walking, daycare, and house sitting any day of the week! I have a fenced in yard and two sweet pups to keep your fur baby company. I would also love to work on training for no extra cost if that's something you are interested in!

About: I’ve had both dogs and cats for over 10 years, and animals have always been a part of my life! We currently have a sweet 4-year-old cat who we absolutely adore. Caring for animals is second nature to me, and I’ll treat your pet with the same love and attention I give my own. I am a stay at home mom and I homeschool our 7 year old! She will be with me on walks and drop in visit! I have a flexible schedule to walk your dog or drop in to check on your dog or cat! I have a cat and we are mindful and take precautions so he doesn’t get outside. He was a bit of an escape artist, we were told when we adopted him. I’m a responsible, experienced pet caregiver offering drop-ins and walks with a calm, nurturing approach. My well-behaved 7-year-old will be with me, and we’re both gentle, respectful, and great with animals. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority, and you can expect clear communication and dependable care.

About: I've taken care of dogs and other small animals (e.g. fish, guinea pigs, hamsters, etc.) for over two decades. I am a professional full time, and have a great attention to detail. **NOTE: I can NOT care for indoor cats due to an allergy. Providing food/water to outdoor cats is okay. I am available for weekend pet care (e.g. Friday through Sundays), as well as holiday care. Weekly summer care could also be arranged if needed. Pet care is only available in the client's home (e.g. your home). Pet care is NOT available in my home. Daily pictures and text updates will be provided.

About: I’ve been a pet owner my whole life. I have 3 dogs and 2 cats that I love! Any time I have the opportunity to care for an animal is a time I am grateful for! I love to take walks with my pups, play games with my cats, and snuggle with all of the above! I work from home with a flexible schedule. I have animals in my home so I am not open to caring for other pets at my residence. But I have a lot of availability and willingness to care for your pet at your home or do dog walks. I have experience crating my pets, taking walks on leashes, and play time in a fenced yard. I can adapt to your pet needs and follow all necessary safety protocols.

About: I have experience with providing dog care services such as walking, feeding, playing, etc. I enjoy animals and have grown up caring for dogs.

About: I know how hard it is to leave your beloved fur baby and I want you and your pet to be happy, knowing they're in good hands.

I love feeding animals and giving them treats, but I am respectful of the client's wishes and will strictly follow all feeding instructions. I am physically in shape and able to walk/jog with your dog and go on long walks (I also live near the Pufferbelly trail). I will play tug, fetch or whatever game your dog enjoys. I am willing to take your dog on car rides and to the Huntertown dog park upon client request. I have a golden retriever that loves to play and go for walks, so if you want some socialization for your dog, I can also bring him along. My dog will only come by request of the client. I do have 2 cats in my home, so I can only board dogs who are cat (and dog) friendly. Otherwise, I am more than happy to come to your home and care for your dog(s).

I hope to provide your dog with the type of care that allows you to enjoy your time away without worrying about your pet. Rest assured that I will be upfront and honest if I am not able to meet your expectations, rather than neglect your dog and leave them scared and missing you! Dogs are welcome to play with other furry friends, but I also provide them privacy if they need a little space. I am able to separate dogs within my home and yard to keep them safe and comfortable. I can’t wait to meet you and your pet and become fast friends so you can be confident in my services. **At this time, I am unable to host dogs larger than ~40 lbs.** I do not work outside of my home.

The dogs are double fenced when playing and always supervised during potty breaks in the yard. I secure all dogs to the kitchen when another dog is being picked up or dropped off.
