About: I provide attentive, personalized care, including structured walks, consistent training reinforcement, and immediate communication, ensuring your dog's comfort and well-being. PUPPIES AND SENIORS AS WELL. I work with dogs/cats on a daily basis! Dog sitting, walking, training, ect. I can easily crate your dog if needed, follow instructions to a point, and assertive if needed but kind. Your child will be in the best care(: Ensure their safety, supervision, follow feeding/medication schedules, provide exercise and playtime, clean up after them, and offer lots of affection as instructed. Observe and report any concerns.

About: I love all animals and enjoys their company. I'd love to take care of your dog(s) and cats while you're away, so you don't have to worry. When I'm not traveling, I work from home full time, so animals will have plenty of attention and go outside pretty frequently. I have a large yard on rural property and there's a dirt road to get in a several walks. Your dog will have supervised and/or leashed access to the outdoors. There's a lot of room to run. I have had experience handling medications for animals for several years, as my cocker spaniel took medications for glaucoma and congestive heart failure. You can trust that your pup will be spoiled here, like one of my very own. :) I am currently home full time but job hunting so animals have care 24/7. Hoping to find remote work but if this changes I will update here. My animals are friendly with all dogs. I keep all dogs leashes while outdoors. We make sure all doors are closed and all food and poison items are not within reach

About: I have always had a soft spot for animals. I began working in the medical field but realized my heart was in the place to care for animals instead. I have my own "misfit farm" of unwanted animals and in my down time I am taking on dog walking/pet sitting. I am knowledgeable in many animals including dogs, cats birds, small animals, exotics and farm animals. I currently own a Great Pyrenees, Can Corso, Miniature dachshund, a cat plus 3 rescue goats, bunnies and a ton of chickens. I can also help with basic training and using an E collar. Medications or special needs animals is also something I am comfortable with. I do have kids who love to go on walks with me when I am dog walking, but it is not necessary for them to come with . My dog sitting calendar is filling up quickly! At this moment I am boarding dogs on a case by case basis so just reach out and we can chat! I am available for house sitting, however cannot accommodate regular overnight stays but can accommodate frequent and lengthy visits. I am a mom to 3, but am pretty much open and available for your needs. Hanging out with animals is a strong passion of mine and I often use the extra cash to do things with my kids. I cannot accommodate overnights in my house sitting but can offer lengthy and frequent visits I am available for walking, feeding, caring, loving and walking your babies of whatever species and breed. I am extremely responsible and comfortable with administering medication if need be and am very cautious when it comes to walking or letting the animal outside or when it comes to rules you have for your pet. There is very little I wouldn't be able to do, so little I can't even think of one at the moment. You can trust that I will love and care for your animals like they were my own. I can even show you pictures and videos of my very spoiled pets for reference!

About: I’ve had plenty of dogs my entire life as well as taken care of friends and families dogs. Overnight, check ins or walking. I love walking dogs especially and playing with all animals. I will provide a safe, caring, and loving environment for your pets so you’re worry free while away from them! Currently between jobs and am a full time online college student. So I am pretty flexible!! If something doesn’t work i’ll just make that clear but I do not have many scheduled things in my day to day. I don’t mind doing feeding, walking, play time! Also don’t mind light clean up if they make a mess while you are gone. My dogs are kind of crazy so I understand messes happen! My dogs have an open back yard but if your dog is trained to walk I will be happy to take them out that way. My dogs get plenty of play time mainly with each other but i’ve done plenty of play time with them myself and can incorporate that with you dogs if they require play time! I also have dealt with older and sick dogs so I know how to be gentle and handle that. I have also had my own cat and watched others, I adore cats. Mine was sick for a while so i’m familiar with oral medication for cats and soothing cats’ anxieties as mine suffered heavily from unknown anxiety.

“Kimberly was great with Chase as always! She's great at communicating with us, both when things are going great and when things come up and some flexibility is needed. Her concern for Chase is the first priority and we really appreciate that. Highly recommend!”

About: I began caring for my cat, Tori, who has allergies and respiratory issues, and through that experience I learned how to give medication, monitor breathing, and provide gentle emotional support. Taking care of her taught me how deeply pets trust us and how important consistent, loving care is. I want to bring that same compassion to every pet I look after.

About: I’m the person people call when their animals need real care — not just a walk around the block. I regularly foster puppies, kittens, and medical-case animals, so I’m used to everything from bottle babies to pets who need meds, deworming, wound care, and structured routines. Nothing fazes me. I work in animal care, and I’m hands-on every day with dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and needs. I’m big on structure, safety, and making sure your pet feels secure, not stressed. Whether your dog is a stage-five clinger, a shy baby deer, or a chaos gremlin, I’ve probably fostered one just like them. I work part time on the weekends and all of my free time is dedicated to fosters or owned pets! My passion and hobby is dog training and animal care. I respect and reinforce owners boundaries. My home is optimized for animal safety and with my extensive animal care knowledge I am confidently able to provide a safe and structured environment.

“Paige is so flexible and understanding. I had to cancel a couple hours before because my husband got sick. She graciously made the changes. She’s also fantastic with our pup. I highly recommend her.”

About: I worked at an animal hospital for 5 years out of high school. I just love animals overall. They’re family so they should be treated as such. I work from home on my on business so my time is very flexible. I can usually make arrangements pretty quickly if anything should come up. I have a big living area, and a 1 year old poodle girl who loves to play. If your pup needs it, I also have a family sized crate. Plenty of comfortable blankets and toys all around. For potty time we can either go outdoor or indoors on puppy pads.
