“Skylar was absolutely great! My two dogs, Oslo and Aspen enjoyed her company. She was very attentive to them and kept good communication with me. I feel like my pups were very happy and relaxed having her around for a couple hours while I was gone. I would trust her again in my home and with my two dogs.”

About: I’ve grown up with springer spaniels my whole life. I’ve hunted, run with, walked with, trained a little, and snuggled with dogs from birth to death. I’ve volunteered at humane societies, with experience walking and feeding the dogs of all age and sizes. I’m currently in college but am willing to walk or run with your animals in my free time. During the weekdays I am free in the morning before 7:30, 12:15 to 12:45, and after 5. During the weekends I am usually free all day, message me and I’ll explain my availability more! I’m determined to leave your home in the way I found it. I will play with your animals safely and without disturbing anything in the house. I will follow any medical or special needs that your animal requires. I avoid unsafe walking areas and make sure the animal is always secured. I understand that trusting your pet with someone is a big deal. I treat every dog as if it were my own and respect your home and instructions completely. I’m happy to provide updates through photos and messages so you know how your animal is doing. I am happy to adjust and adapt to each personality of each animal. I love staying active and am happy to run with dogs who enjoy exercise while also making sure they don’t over do it. If you have any questions about me or my availability please don’t be afraid to message me.
About: I've spent decades as a dog dad, raising springer spaniels, golden labs, and black labs – all active, intelligent breeds that need both physical exercise and mental stimulation. I also babysat a beagle every summer for years, so I'm comfortable with different energy levels and personalities. What sets me apart is my empathic approach and genuine understanding of what dogs need. I can read their body language and moods, whether they're anxious, playful, or just need a calm presence. Being retired means I have an open schedule and plenty of time for walks, play sessions, and just hanging out together – your dog won't be squeezed into a busy day. I know that every dog is an individual with their own quirks and routines, and I respect that. Your dog will get my full attention and the kind of care I've given my own pets for years. Being retired means pet care can be my daily routine! I have a completely open schedule with no other work commitments. My days are flexible and built around whatever your pet needs. The beauty of retirement is that I'm not trying to squeeze pet care into lunch breaks or evenings – I can give your pets the time and attention they deserve, whenever they need it. My priority is maintaining your pet's routine and keeping them safe and comfortable. Pets thrive on routine and familiarity. I'll stick to your pet's exact schedule – mealtimes, medications, favorite activities, where they like to sleep – so the only thing that changes is that you're not there. I'm empathic to how pets handle change, so I take time to let them adjust to me at their own pace. I'll treat your home like my home and send you updates so you have peace of mind while you're away.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for over 20 years. I have two fur babies, Tucker and Jax, so I truly understand how important trustworthy pet care is. I’ll treat your pets with the same love and attention I give my own. I work from home during the week until 4 p.m., so I’m mostly available Friday–Sunday. I can often be flexible on weekdays too, just reach out and I’ll do my best to make it work! Your pet’s comfort and safety are my top priorities. I make sure they feel secure in their own home and give them plenty of love, pets, and attention so they can relax while you’re away.
“Samantha took great care of my two cats who are not very used to strangers. They were well cared for and were very content when I returned. Absolutely zero complaints and I would highly recommend Samantha.”
About: I have always had dogs growing up in many sizes. With my most recent dog, i worked with him to get over his past abuse issues and was able to train him many other things! I am a first year student at Lake Area Technical College, and am studying agricultural. With this I have classes throughout the day with many in between breaks where I can tend to your pet! I will treat your house like mine and along with your pets. I will make sure your home looks the same if not better than when I arrive.
About: Have always had a love for animals. Cared for injured & ailing animals also. Helped deliver puppies, kittens, bottle fed, administered medication, cared for many animals . I am currently available full time. My schedule is pretty flexible right now. Would prefer to watch your pet in their home at this time. I have a Pet friendly home. I have a fully fenced in yard. Crates availabe if needed. Allowed on couches and bed. Goal to make your pet feel at home and safe.
About: I'm a lawyer with one puppy who is my best friend! There will always be tons of snuggles and games here! I love all dogs and have always enjoyed puppy sitting. I have a full job during the week, but when I'm home we play! If your dog is ok with short periods in the kennel while boarding, that is is preferable, but not necessary! I have one mini dachshund puppy one year old and he loves to play! I have a small unfenced yard for potty breaks, but we can go in walks or to the dog park if your baby likes to run!
“Travis was excellent. A true dog lover. Our dogs are Leary of strangers but they both took to Travis immediately. Travis was very responsive, respectful, knowledgeable about animals, and also inquired about if there was anything we wanted done. Gave immediate updates with pictures. Walked the dogs played with them. Wonderful young man. Would definitely recommend Travis.”

She did awesome! So flexible, affordable, and accommodating. Also shes very responsive and has great communication skills. She respected my cats boundaries, I had one cat who was a little more hesistant about her at first, but Jess made sure not to be in his face. My cats loved meeting her. Me and my husband were so anxious to leave our kitties while we went out of town, but she put our worries at ease. Definitely recommend! You can tell she really cares about animals and making sure they get the love they need.
