About: I've had dogs and cats most of my life. In 2010 I took classes for veterinary assistant and worked as a vet receptionist at that time. I raised my last dog, Mitzi, from a puppy. She had health issues up through her senior years. We shared 15-1/2 years, and in May 2024 she crossed the rainbow bridge. In July 2025 I adopted Ziva from SICSA. She's a Pom-mix, 7 years old. Ziva is a low key gal who asks for belly rubs and pets. In the short time I've had her, she's learned "give me your paw, sit, and round in a circle." She doesn't know how to play, but we're making progress with Lamb Chop and her bone. What can I do for you and your pets? I can provide LOTS of love for your pets by feeding, playing, walking, and giving them scritches, hugs, and kisses. Contact me for a Meet and Greet today! 🐶 🐱 I'm currently working part-time, and I have plenty of time to spend with your dogs and cats! My schedule is flexible to meet your needs. I will abide by my clients' instructions when I'm at their home and can adapt to your pet's routine in the comfort of their home.

About: Animals have always been at the center of my life, there’s never been a time I didn’t have at least five cats or dogs in the house! Over the years, I’ve cared for more than 100 pets, and I’ve loved every moment of it. Now as an adult, that same love drives me to spend as much time as I can caring for animals of all kinds. I currently share my home with six cats, a bunch of birds, and a few playful ferrets. From the tiniest kitten to the most energetic pup, I understand how unique and important every pet is. I’m committed to treating your furry family members with the same care, attention, and love I give my own.

You can trust that your pet will be in loving, responsible hands—treated with patience, kindness, and the same care I give my own animals.
About: Dog sitting was my first job as a teenager, and is still my favorite job I hold. For years, family, friends, and coworkers have trusted their furry friend with me. I have volunteered with 4 Paws for Ability, take college courses on canine evolution, and have been professionally trained on dog behavior. I have worked with every age of dogs, from puppies to seniors. I am also equipped to handle disabled dogs, including visually impaired. I have the current ability to take care of your pups on your schedule. Whether it’s a morning potty break, an afternoon walk, or an evening dinner feeding, I’m available. My own dog, Walle, is a Labrador Retriever and the happiest boy. He has been temperament tested by multiple agencies, and is fully vaccinated. If your pup likes a play date or a doggie companion, Walle will be a great friend. If your dog is more of a solo animal, that’s also perfect. It’s up to you and your dog’s level of comfort.
About: I treat every dog like family, not just a job. What differentiates me from other sitters is my genuine love and attention to each pet. I take the time to understand your dog's personality, routine, and needs, whether it's playtime, walks, medication, or the comfort of being there. I'm reliable and communicative, and I always keep you updated with photos and messages so you feel connected even when you're away. Your dog's safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. With me, you're not just getting a sitter but someone who truly cares. I begin each day around 7 AM by letting the dogs out for a bathroom break, feeding them, and engaging in playtime to ensure they're comfortable and content. During my work hours, I make it a point to let them outside every 3–4 hours, and I'm flexible to increase this frequency if necessary. I'm diligent about adhering to their medication schedules, ensuring timely administration, and preparing the appropriate meals for them. This structured routine helps maintain their health and well-being. I prioritize safety during my dog-sitting services by ensuring that all doors and gates are securely locked and that dogs wear their collars at all times. I use well-fitted harnesses and leashes when walking, avoiding retractable leashes to maintain better control. I also take precautions to prevent escapes by keeping dogs away from open doors and gates and using baby gates or other barriers. Additionally, I stay vigilant during walks, avoiding distractions like phone use and being cautious around other animals or unfamiliar people. These measures help ensure the dogs' safety and prevent any potential accidents.
