About: I have several years of paid and volunteer experience with all animals, including dogs, cats, fish, chickens, rabbits, horses, and goats. Growing up, I had two dogs, one small and one medium. I also used to volunteer at a therapeutic horse-riding center for people with disabilities, where I groomed horses and cleaned their barns. I currently have two guinea pigs who are contained in cages, but are very curious, playful, and friendly with other animals. I'm an incoming Master's student who is currently working part-time this summer. I have a highly flexible schedule and short commute times, which gives me more time to care for your pets! I have spacious front and back yards where your pet can roam. I also have a doggy gate to block off the upstairs of my house if necessary, but our downstairs and upstairs are very dog-proof from years of caring for our previous pets. I live in a 3-bedroom home, providing ample room for your pet to explore and wander inside if they prefer the indoors. I also have dog bowls, leashes, toys, and food, ready for use.

Rachael did a great job with my dog Harry today! He came home happy & tired so that's a good thing. He ate his dinner quite heartily too, ha, ha! I'm looking forward to having her come back again hopefully on a regular basis for walks & see if we can get some weight off Harry as he is overweight for his size right at this stage in life. Thanks so much Rachael!

We love having Theresa back while she's home from school for her holiday break. My pup Molly loves Theresa so much and my husband and I both agree she gets the best care she could get with her! Theresa has become like family to us after using her the past year and a half. ❤

About: "I have a deep love for animals and years of experience caring for pets. Family and friends have always trusted me to watch, feed, walk, and love their dogs. I specialize in providing a calm, structured, and incredibly safe environment for small and medium adult dogs. Your pup will receive constant attention, plenty of playtime, and treated just like family while staying with me." "I currently work part-time, which gives me a very steady routine and plenty of open flexibility to be home with your dog. I am always mindful of my time management to ensure your pet gets consistent supervision, frequent potty breaks, and lots of individual attention. I have plenty of dedicated time to play, go for walks, and make sure your pup feels completely safe, happy, and pampered while you are away." Safety is my highest priority when caring for your pet. My home is a clean, calm, and smoke-free environment with plenty of open space for small and medium dogs to feel entirely at ease. I maintain a secure setup to ensure no escapes, provide constant direct supervision, and strictly follow any specific care, feeding, or routine instructions you provide to keep your pup happy and safe."

About: I have taken care of dogs all sizes and different temperaments. We have 4 cats in my home currently! I love working with animals of all kinds- I’m hoping to go back to school for my vet tech certification soon! I have a flexible schedule and am available weekdays until the sun goes down! I am also available on weekends with advance notice. Boarding requests are preferred to be made at least 5 days before the start date! I am not able to host pets at my home but I will always be respectful in yours. If you request I can help with other task during boarding stays such as plant watering, retrieving the mail, or any other small household tasks!

About: I have over 7 years of experience taking care of both my own fur babies along with friends and family. This includes walking, exercising, bathing, feeding (including needed medications). I am currently working day shifts in operations (with rotating open weekend availability) and I’d love to exercise/tend your fur babies. I’m open to regular schedules or even random check ins if you’re just busy/stressed and need some quiet space! I love having a conversation with pet parents about what their current routine is, what’s working/not working, if their pet is social, and what they expect from myself. I think it’s only respectful and mindful of safety, to properly speak of these key points to create a trusting pet sitter relationship.

About: I have been taking detailed care of pets since I was a 8 years old. I’m more patient with animals than I am with people. Currently undergoing Service Dog Training as well! I’m your dogs dog 😉 Training season is NOW in! My main occupation is seasonal so my paw schedule is more available! Book ASAP before I’m under the “dog pile”. Fenced off area, safety is always top priority! There are three main parks very close to me as well very spacious even including nice walking paths and sitting areas the fury friends will enjoy. I can even crate the pets if desired so or if scenarios seem fit. I’m great at paying attention to detail and multi-tasking when necessary.
