“Emily did a great job watching my two dogs while I was out of state for the weekend. Sent me pictures when requested and I came home to everything as clean as when I left, if not cleaner. Would recommend!”

“Sarah took such amazing care of our dog, two cats, and home while we were out of town. She provided picture updates throughout the day. I didn’t have to worry at all about my babies while we were gone. Her communication was top notch. I will definitely use Sarah again!”

“Alexandra is a very friendly and punctual. My dog loved having her watch him. He felt very at ease with her as we could tell by the picture she sent of him on his back and paws in the air asking for a belly rub. Will definitely ask Alexandra to watch him again.”

“Karlee took amazing care of Penny! It is clear she genuinely loves dogs. She kept us updated with photos and messages and Penny was spoiled all day. Karlee is reliable, communicative and incredibly kind - we would trust her again in a heartbeat. Highly recommend!”

“Vanessa and Dario are hands down our top pick of sitters when we’re out of town. They do a great job with the whole crew. They really go above and beyond and care deeply for all of our pets. We feel safe knowing they’re in good hands.”

“Nick did a great job watching our two Pitbulls for 10 days. The dog loved him. He kept the house clean and tidy and did a few small tasks for us as well. Definitely will use him again.”

“Lauren was wonderful with my little Oliver. She was prompt, communicated well, kept me updated, gave medication, left house clean and neat and followed directions. I will definitely call Lauren again. An absolute joy to deal with.”
“Amy was absolutely lovely. She took such great care of our pups and our house. The dogs loved her. She also brought in our packages that were delivered! She sent pics throughout her stay which I really appreciated. I would definitely recommend Amy and will be using her services again!”

“I will DEFINITELY use Josiah as often as possible! He followed all my instructions and my dog absolutely loved him. My beagle suffers from separation anxiety, and it's hard to find someone who not only compassionately understands his needs, but also with whom my dog feels comfortable and secure! When I arrived home, my dog was sleeping at Josiah's side. I think I finally found a perfect match!”

“Brea did a great watching our three dogs while we were out of town. In addition to that, our furnace had broke, and Brea took on extra duties of keeping our pups warm and the house, too. Now that the dogs know her, we will have again to watch the dogs.”

About: Hello! I’m Grace aka the dog whisperer 😊 Caring for dogs is truly my passion, both at home and professionally. I have two dogs of my own, one who is two years old and one who is eleven, so I’m very familiar with the different needs, energy levels, temperaments, and care styles that come with both puppies/young adults and senior dogs. Aside from that, I have a rescue dog of my own who is two years old. I currently work as a canine care specialist and kennel attendant, where I care for dogs every day of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. From very small dogs to large breeds like Great Danes and Great Pyrenees, I’m comfortable handling a wide range of needs. My responsibilities include feeding, potty breaks, safe socialization, and making sure each dog is comfortable, secure, and well cared for. I approach every dog with patience, compassion, and attentiveness, and I always treat them as if they were my own. My goal is to provide loving, reliable care that helps both pets and owners feel at ease. Pet care is already a part of my everyday routine, both personally and professionally. I work in the pet care field during the week, so caring for animals is something I do daily and genuinely enjoy. At this time, my availability is primarily on weekends, which are generally open unless I communicate otherwise in advance. I’m very upfront about my schedule and always make sure expectations are clear so pets receive consistent, attentive care. Because pet care is already a major part of my life, I’m comfortable building it into my routine and giving each dog the time, patience, and attention they deserve. Safety, trust, and comfort are always my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for a pet in my home or in a client’s home, I focus on creating a calm, loving, and secure environment. Exercise and playtime are a big part of my approach to care. I make sure each dog gets appropriate physical activity and mental stimulation based on their age, energy level, and routine. Along with plenty of play and affection, I stay consistent with the basics, regular feeding, fresh water at all times, and close attention to each pet’s needs and behavior. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space with complete respect. I follow all instructions carefully, maintain routines, and make sure the home is left just as it was found. I believe trust is earned through reliability, communication, and genuine care, and I always strive to make both pets and owners feel comfortable and at ease.
About: Animals have always been a part of my life and family. Their smiles and wagging tails bring me joy, so I make sure they have just as much joy in their lives as they bring me! Here are a few highlights from my rich fur filled life: I have had to care for a litter of kittens whose mother had passed way before weening her babies. At which, I had to administer special formula and attend to each of the 5 kittens until maturity. We currently still have two of the five, the other three had been rehomed. I was in charge of providing care for a dog whose previous human caregivers were abusive drug addicts. He was skiddish and timid, had a problem with floor and chair wetting when he slept, and was quick to tense up if he sensed any hostility in a room. He stayed with me for the majority of a year, in which I had him accustomed better to human contact and interaction. The wetting issue, I had discovered, was a combination of his age and anxiety, and cleared up to only a few isolated incidents after the time he was with me. He is now with a loving family whose son is very active in engaging with him and playing with him on a daily basis. I now currently babysit a husky in my home every other weekend. She gets along great with my dogs and cat, and is the perfect couch snuggler. I also do house visits for my friends domestic short-hair cat when she works late or out of town. My dog of 8 years had a litter of 10 puppies a couple years ago. We had to give her a special high protein and fiber diet with 6 feeding times a day due to her major weight loss and diarrhea while whelping. Within a couple weeks, she was back up to a healthy weight and bathroom schedule and could nurse all 10 puppies with no assistance. I helped deliver of 8 of the 10 puppies, one of which had to be given CPR to be revived, as he had fluid in his lungs. He has since been rehomed to a great family and is living his best life with a toddler as his bestest friend! He makes his grandma proud. I am currently working part-time, so afternoons and evenings on Thurs, Fri, and Mon are available and can be spent taking care of any of your fur child's needs. Mornings and afternoons may become available as my schedule changes. I can also work in house visits and overnight stays if necessary. I have a cottage style home in which the back yard is completely fenced in, and a finished and climate controlled basement with a gate if seclusion is needed for shy or nervous babies. There are plenty of soft areas for animals to lounge on. I also have extra bowls for food and water in case there are specific dietary restrictions and a client needs his/her own eating area. The neighborhood I live in has many sidewalked areas ideal for walks around it, and my location is only a couple blocks from Bloomer Park.
“Jennifer is an amazing sitter! We had great communication before, during, and after our trip. She sent a lot of pictures while we were away, and we could tell Benny was having a great time. We would definitely book her again!”
