Katelyn walks my dog weekly and also stayed overnight last minute. My dog is a bit needy and Katelyn responds so patiently to her! She sends pictures during her visit and is so kind. Leave your pets with her if you’re usually nervous about leaving them with other people like I am!!

Amanda was wonderful! I reached out short notice while I was out of town and my wife had a longer day at work than usual. She did a drop-in visit for our two dogs and everything went smoothly. We’d happily book again!

About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I’m comfortable with daily routines like feeding, walks, playtime, litter box cleanup, and administering basic medications when needed. I take the time to understand each pet’s unique needs and personality so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always prioritize their happiness, safety, and well-being. I work full time for USPS as a mail carrier. I have two days off each week. I’m always off Sundays. Once I’m off work usually around 5/6pm I’m free! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I maintain a clean, calm, and pet-friendly environment in my home, free of hazards and closely supervised at all times. I follow all care instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, and any special requirements. When caring for pets in their own home, I respect your space and your pet’s routine to help them feel secure and stress-free. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are always secure and I provide regular updates so you can feel confident and at ease while you’re away. I treat every pet with patience, kindness, and genuine care, and I understand the trust it takes to leave your pet—and your home—in someone else’s hands. My goal is to create a safe, loving, and dependable experience for both you and your pet.

Aubrey was available on short notice and did a great job taking care of our cat. She was attentive to his habits and notified us when something deviated from normal so that we could take action to put things back on track. I hope Aubrey will be available to care for our cat again!

About: I've grown up always having pets in the home. We've always had at least one dog in the house, along with a handful of other types of pets (cats, rats, guinea pigs, even a chinchilla) throughout the years. This has solidified my love for animals of all kinds, and makes me eager to care for and love your pets as if they are my own, if you choose to give me the opportunity to do so :) I am a teacher trying to keep myself busy for the summer! My schedule is wide open so feel free to message me with any requests! I care for pets in their own home by maintaining their normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, exercise, and any medications they may need. I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I also make sure to keep owners updated with regular messages and photos for peace of mind! I also have reliable transportation which would allow me to be able to come to your home and care for your pet in their own environment!

About: I have been taking care of various sized animals for the past several years. I am comfortable giving medications if need be and following any special instructions you may have for your four-legged babies! I am currently in college classes full time Monday-Thursday, however after 1pm I am fully available! This is not a hindrance at all when caring for your pets in your home. I prefer to stay in your home if watching your animals for an extended period of time, but if you are not comfortable with that I certainly understand and am happy to visit your house throughout the day as needed to attend to your furry loved ones!

Fantastic. I forgot to book the last day and she kindly reminded me that it wasn't booked so that she could help us with care before we return home. Our fur babies loved her presence and she didn't waste any time to ensure they had some fun playtime together. Thank you!

Elizabeth accepted our last minute, holiday weekend request, very appreciated!! The visit with our pack of 4 went great, one pack member is very elderly and another pack member is a 15 week old puppy. Elizabeth handled our pack with care and professionalism, we will definitely request her in the future and recommend her to other four-legged-furkid families!!! FIVE STARS
