“Such a great experience!! This was a last minute thing and I am so happy I went with Bailey she was wonderful!! Egan absolutely loved her and she was so kind and patient with him and I. When I needed her to come back randomly after my boy got into the trash she was so accommodating and helped me out again last minute. I am new to the area and I’m happy that I found someone I trust to watch Egan while I am away at work🤗”


“Marissa is awesome. Very friendly and reliable. She took care of our dog Hana while we were away. She sent pics, fed her, let her out to go potty, and spent time with her. Marissa will definitely be our go-to from now on :) Thanks Marissa!”


“Jennifer went above and beyond!!!!. Treated my pup like up a lot of attention, care and extra time. Loved all the commutation and daily pictures. Will definitely book with her again.”


“Ella did a good job dropping in and taking care of the doggos! Very easy to communicate with and check-in with questions. Played with the dogs outside which they loved! And brought in Amazon packages into the house which was considerate. Thank you!”


“Nathan is taking such good care of my very active doggy duo! He's helping them (and me!) through a transition to being home alone all day for the first time in their lives and it's been a tremendous relief to know that they are getting exercise, enrichment, and attention from Nathan during the day. He has been communicative, flexible, and highly trustworthy. It's clear that Nathan is a dog lover and understands their needs. I'm so grateful for his time with my dogs and he has my wholehearted recommendation!”


“Kim did a wonderful job caring for our two dogs. She kept us updated on them and even let us know one got slightly sick and cleaned up the mess.”


About: I previously fostered two puppies and an adult dog (not at the same time), but I cannot foster or adopt at my current apartment. I miss having a dog around to take to the dog park, take on walks, and show lots of love! I work a standard M-F 9-5 but am around most weekends and do not have kids or similar demands on my time outside of work. My work schedule is also flexible in that I rarely have meetings, so drop-in visits and walks are doable. I will clean up messes immediately, ensure home security as requested, keep closely to walking/feeding schedules requested, respect your pets’ boundaries, and not spoil your pet too much (unless you want me to!).

About: I have been a pet owner for over 20 years and have taken care a variety of pets; dogs, cats, fish, and guinea pigs my whole life. I treat my fur baby, Dexter, like my own child and I will do the same for yours! He’s my best friend, we do everything together & that’s exactly how I will treat your pup! I would love to take your fur baby on a nature hike, to the local coffee shop for a puppuccino, to a park to play fetch, or even just to lounge around the home. I am here to keep your pup happy, safe and have a good time! My work schedule can be flexible at times with advanced scheduling, so I am able to interact with your fur baby as needed! We can go on a short walk before work, during my lunch break, and a long walk after I’m off! I am no longer offering boarding services at my home, however, I would love to check in on your pet at your home as needed. Due to having a pup of my own with his own needs, I will not be able to spend the night at your home. *** Please note, this prior to booking. I will not stay overnight. *** However, I can come over multiple times to check in on your pet and ensure it’s comfortable and safe in the comfort of their home.

About: Dogs and cats have been a big part of my life growing up. I was always a pet lover and they flocked to me for constant love and hugs which I was more than happy to supply. I have years of experience from raising my own dogs, and dog sitting. I am patient and kind and learning new training techniques every day. I know the struggle of finding the perfect place to trust to watch your fur baby while you're at work or on vacation. Kennels are not the right place as they will not supply the love and care your fur baby deserves and your pup is left in a cold environment that is far too similar to a pound. I can give you the ease of mind in knowing that in our home, they will be loved and cared for like one of our own, and they will feel safe and at ease. I work from home on the week days so your fur baby will have constant companionship and be taken out on routine potty breaks and play time for fetch or just running around the yard as well as 1-2 walks per day around the neighborhood. In our home, your furry loves will be our top priority! We have a nice big back yard that accommodates lounging around in the sun, playing fetch, running out some zoomie energies, and even a covered patio for when it's rainy. When inside the house, your pup will have the run of the house and can play or sleep wherever they are most comfortable!

About: Born and raised with dogs for most years of my life. I've pet sat and walked many dogs over the years. I'm aware of what they do and don’t need, can be a strict yet playful as a care taker. I love walking and running with dog/s. I enjoy the exercise and break in nature as much as they do. It would be ideal to work for a pet owner who has potty trained their dog and has a good relationship with it. The dog tends to be a happier one that way! I care for cats too! I lived with a cat for 4 years who was super sweet. I regularly sit for 2 cats in my area. I’ve also learned some tricks with cats that aren’t initially friendly. I am allergic so I can’t cuddle them at night but as long as they don’t need that, I can do all the main tasks needed and pet them. ***I don’t accept aggressive dogs after being bitten as a Rover walker. I’m usually chosen for house/pet sitting while my partner cares for our dogs for me. If you’re considering boarding/dog daycare with me, your dog has to be potty trained, comfortable around my dogs, dog loving people and a dog loving 10 year old. It’s not always a fit so have low expectations and plenty of time for a meet and greet. If you want me to come to your house instead, that’s more common and yes I’ll leave my dogs at home with my partner. That said, if your dogs are dog friendly, I can do group walks but no worries if your dogs a diva. Questions for you before you book me ⤭ Is your dog potty trained? Does she/he bark? Special diet needs? Lifestyle needs? & lastly, would she/he get along with other humans and a 10 year old? How about other dogs? I usually do a meet and greet before agreeing and make sure we're a good fit. I love regular clients. Schedule ⤭ Depends on the dog. It's common that there's a morning walk and feed, mid day potty break and play and evening walk and feed. Weekends are for longer exercise adventures. How I care for pets in my home or others? ⤭ I'm always around. Here to bring them their love, play, food and outings. At my house there’s a play zone inside and outside for them. I'm happy to accommodate to your pets desires or stay at your space as well.

About: Whether you're away for a day or an extended trip, I provide personalized care, fun playtime, and plenty of belly rubs for your furry family member. With a calm presence, flexible availability, and a true love for dogs of all breeds and sizes, I make sure your pup feels safe, loved, and right at home. Walks, cuddles, feeding, meds; I’ve got it covered! It’s just me and my two teenagers in the house - they are 16 and 18 and both have their own cars so I rarely see them! They’ve grown up around having a dog, and continually pressure me to have another one 😵💫 We had a bully breed mix, Celine Dion who sadly passed from old age in 2019. She had diabetes towards the end of her life, so I’m familiar with giving medication/shots if necessary. Since then we’ve regularly looked after our friends’ dogs, as you can see from the photos. We fostered Simba in 2024, we had him for 10 months until he was adopted. Because of having family in England, I want to be able to travel there frequently so am not ready to have a permanent dog again yet. Being a dog sitter fills a need for me! I work from home so have flexibility in my routine and am always available for my visitors’ needs. I like to take a morning walk, and should probably take an evening one too. I’m not away from home often. I have a fully fenced yard and my neighborhood has beautiful walking trails, that I use whether I am walking a dog, or just walking alone. I’ve fostered rescue dogs and have experience of high anxiety dogs. I’m 6 feet tall and strong, and my last foster was great with people but not so much with other dogs we met on our walks, so I’m used to avoiding them, if necessary! I am happy to send photos to you whilst your dog is in my care, and will communicate with you as frequently as you would like.

About: Hello! I am 28 years young, originally from WA. I have lots of time to play and snuggle with your best friend, as I am a new grad and won’t be starting work until August 4th. I have had a very special connection with animals ever since I was a small child. I've had so much fun growing and learning over the years with many dogs as well as snakes, horses, hamsters, rabbits, & cats. I grew up mainly around Rottweilers, German Shepherds, Shih Tzu, Mini Yorkie's and English Bulldogs, but I'm comfortable with all dog sizes/types and cats! I currently have one cat that I'm able to love up on everyday and one cat who recently went to kitty heaven 🤍 We have lots of room in our home and lovely community to host your fur baby :) We live right across from Edgefield so the dogs will have access to tons of walks/play time. I can’t wait to meet you guys! Thanks for reading & hope to hear from you soon. I am a new grad with a toddler who is in school 3 days a week, so I have tons of time to help others. We ensure that our kitty Biscuit receives all the nutrients, love, and care he needs with grooming, lots of toys, and a proper diet. In a clients home , and mine, I ensure routines are followed to reduce anxiety.

About: I have taken care of pets since I got my first cat at the age of five. I have taking care of your typical range of domestics (cat, dog, rabbit, guinea pig, parakeet, etc), as well as farm animals (horse, cow, sheep, goat, llama/alpaca, chicken, quail, etc). I take pride in giving animals the best quality of care and life, and am sure to learn each one's personality and needs. I have provided care for my own pets as well as for friends, family, and clients; and have worked in professional settings such as horse barns and captive wildlife facilities. I have cared for pets with simple needs as well as those that require more complex routines and senior care. Rest assured that your pets will be safe with me! I currently am available for dog walking 6 am-3 pm on week days. I can do pet checkups anytime (6am to 9pm, Sun-Sat) if all you need is a quick let out for potty/food while you are away. I am also available for house sitting if your pet needs more care/company, and can do boarding with me if they get along with my pets. I currently have a senior cat and very friendly border collie mix, with a fully fenced yard. I take pride in trying to meet every pets needs whether that's taking them on adventures to get energy out or providing comfort and connection with more snuggly creatures. I believe all pets need some form of mental stimulation as well as physical and am constantly figuring out ways to provide those. I try my best to create an environment for pets to thrive whether that's through routine or novelty.

T'Quirah W.
“T’Quirah has a lot of shining attributes. The love and respect that she shows to an animal, any animal, is nothing shy of heartwarming. I adopted my dog, Bailey, about a year ago, and she was abused before I got her. I knew she would need a lot of love. The connection that Bailey and T’Quirah have cultivated is so great. T’Quirah considers the animals feelings and genuinely cares if they’re happy or not. Bailey doesn’t trust just anybody… But she trusts T’Quirah. I’ll never let anyone else watch Bailey.”
