“Amina was super flexible and squeezed my puppy in her schedule, and on very short notice! She also snapped some cute photos of them outside, he looked like he loved it. So glad i reached out to her will definitely be using her in the future :)”


About: I’ve cared for all types of animals my entire life and had been working in a clinic for just under one year. I love each animal as my own and can’t wait to build a relationship with your pet to help keep the safe, happy, and healthy!! I work part time in fast food currently, I have a ton of free time to play and take care of your animals. My schedule is very flexible and I am able to make more time for your pet if I am let known in advance. I very much believe in listening to your pets signs and cues, letting them decide if they are okay with the situation. I want to keep myself, your pet, and you as safe as possible!!

About: I’ve been a dog lover my entire life, adopting my first pup at 16. Now, I’m the proud owner of two dogs—a playful 8-year-old Yellow Lab and a sweet 3-year-old German Shepherd rescue. Animals are my passion, and my dogs are truly my fur babies. I’d love to treat yours with the same love and care! I'm currently working part-time and pursuing online schooling to become a nurse practitioner. Between my love for the outdoors and my passion for pets, I thought this would be the perfect way to take a study break. I’m usually available afternoons, nights, and weekends—though I’m a night owl, I’d happily rise early for some fun pet playtime! I have a fenced-in backyard where my dogs and I love to play fetch, and we’re also big fans of daily walks and tug-of-war. I’m up for any game your pet enjoys—and I’ll even let them win every now and then for extra fun! If your pet prefers a more laid-back vibe, I’m more than happy to join them as a fellow couch potato for some quality relaxation time!

“Baylee is AMAZING! She was able to meet with me right away, and fit Winston in next day. She worked around my schedule and made me feel super comfortable. Listened to all my worries and made me feel so much better having a sitter. Winston absolutely loved her :) I wil definitely be re booking with her for any of my needs.”


“Benjamin is always so quick to respond to messages. He has been great walking our very large dog, very punctual and we love receiving the pictures. We have booked him several times and will continue booking him.”

About: I grew up on a farm with cats, dogs, ducks, and all sorts of other furry and feathered creatures thinking of becoming a veterinarian. I even worked as a vet tech for four years. I’ve cared for elderly pets, diabetic and epileptic, and can make friends with even the crankiest cat or most skittish pup. As an adult, I’ve lived with a retired racing greyhound named Clock, fostered kittens, rescued several long-term elderly shelter cats, and most recently adopted a pair of kittens when my cat of 14 years passed. They love dogs, but can also live quietly in the bedroom if need be. Your pet becomes one of mine for the duration we are together. They are loved and treated with the same care and affection as my own pets. Some dogs get anxious and don’t like to eat their first meal away from their people- I keep things like chicken broth and peanut butter to help entice them to get that nutrition! Aside from my UNI teaching, my schedule is super flexible and I will adjust my routine as necessary. Generally, my cats actually have a set routine of (demanding) waking me up at 5:30am, dinner at 6, and bedtime snacks at 10pm. In or out of my home I pretty much arrange myself around the pets I’m caring for. If that means staying over at your house, I’m packing a bag.

My girlfriend and I do not live together so they stay at both of our houses throughout the week. At my house, where I will be boarding clients dogs is partially fenced in, but when outside the dogs are always supervised and tied. I generally stay outside with them while they're outside because I don't think I can be too cautious when it comes to their safety. When it comes to a clients pets, I would be just as if not more diligent. As mentioned, I do have two dogs of my own, however when taking care of clients pets, my dogs will stay at my girlfriend's house to eliminate any possible conflicts. If hired to go to a clients home, I am happy to accommodate whatever instructions and routines they have for their own dogs or cats.
