“Kaitlan helped us in a pinch and was great with our senior dog. We met beforehand for a meet-and-greet so I could walk her through our dog's needs and quirks. She was patient with him and communicated well before, during, and after each walk. I trust Kaitlan and she will be the first person I reach out to if I need another dog walker in the future.”

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember! I have worked in an animal shelter and vet clinic as a veterinary assistant caring for a variety of animals. I have had the privilege of fostering 100 animals (mostly neonatal and orphaned kittens!). I currently have three cats and an 18 year old Crested Gecko. Two of my cats are fosters that never left- both have cererbellar hypoplasia, or better known as wobbly cat syndrome! I have pet sat for many kinds of animals including cats, dogs, guinea pigs and reptiles. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend! Please note: I do not use flexi/retractible leashes to ensure safety. I am happy to bring my own slip lead or standard leash. Please, let me know if you have questions! I work from home and have a flexible schedule! I typically have afternoons and weekends free. I would love to learn more about what your pet’s specific care needs are! I want to hear all about your pet! What do they like, what don’t they like? What are their quirks and preferences? I want to learn about them because I want to make sure I am caring for them the way you would.

About: I’m an extremely mobile pet sitter: I have a car - let me visit your home or take your pet to their desired destination! I work remotely full-time - I can provide more indoor attention if needed! I live a very active life style - I can run, play fetch, and/or wiggle a string all day long! Since I work remotely full-time, I can relocate myself to the pet’s house easily and bring my work, or host pets at my place. Either way, I can provide extra attention to animals in need. I believe in respecting the pet and matching their energy - if they are friendly and seeking attention, I’ll provide it; if they need time to warm up, I’ll give them space. I also want to respect the wishes of the owners - any instructions owners want applied to their pets in their presence, I will honor in their absence.

About: Hey everybody! My name is Alex and I am very grateful and eager to be apart of a business that helps dogs and their loving owners. I have come to learn that pet care is quite important in my ten plus years of experience with dogs. Years ago, I was a partner in an organization that rescued dogs from kill shelters and then found them safe and loving forever homes. SO I am no stranger to dogs and good quality care. If you have any questions for me in terms of my experience or services, please do not hesitate to call. Any age from little rambunctious pups to easy going older dogs, I am happy to oblige to making life easier for you and your dog!

My professional animal-care experience includes medication administration, behavior management, training, enrichment, feeding, and recognizing changes in an animal’s health or behavior. I’m comfortable working with animals who need a little extra patience, structure, or specialized care.

My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. ❤️ I’d love the opportunity to meet your furry (or not-so-furry!) family members!

About: I credit most of my skills with taking care of dogs to my own girl, Leona. She came into my life in 2021 as a 6 month old with previous traumas. Through lots of love and training, she’s the happy and fun dog that she is today! My schedule is currently open Mondays-Fridays for dog walking, drop-in visits, and overnight sitting. I will consider weekend availability on an as needed basis. Please feel free to reach out with any questions! For drop-in visits, my services will very based on the needs of the dog. Potty breaks will always be offered during my visit, as well as some play time. I can prepare any enrichment toys your dog has and if meal time is needed, make sure they are fed. I usually like to bring dog treats so let me know if you would like me to hold off on any treats for dietary purposes.

Michelle was great with my dog, Daisy. My dog can be reactive toward dogs she doesn’t know, and Michelle was confident handling this behavior. She was also very helpful when I had to add an additional walk and feeding with limited notice. Michelle also sent so many cute pictures. I’d happily reach out to Michelle for future needs.
