About: I’ve cared for dogs for over 20 years and currently live with four of my own, so I truly understand multi-dog households, routines, and different personalities. I’m calm under pressure, detail-oriented, and reliable. During drop-in visits, I focus on safety, enrichment, and clear communication so you feel confident every time you’re away. I work at a campground, so my schedule varies by season, but I plan in advance and communicate clearly. I focus on drop-in visits and short check-ins in your home, and I’m reliable about timing, updates, and following your pet’s routine. I care for pets in your home exactly as instructed, keeping their environment safe, clean, and consistent. I follow detailed routines for feeding, medication, and enrichment, and I send regular photos and updates so you always know how your pet is doing.

“Tyler, thank u so much for your help with Coco these past several weeks. You went above and beyond, and she is crazy about you! You will certainly here from us again.”

About: I’ve helped take care of several dogs, mainly my grandpa’s dog ever since I was a kid. From walking, to feeding, to cuddling, I’m happy to help look after your pets while you’re away. I work full time during the school year (9-4) but have more free time on the weekends! I have full availability June - Mid August, so don’t hesitate to ask if it’s outside of my normal hours in summer! I try to treat my pets with the best care! I currently have two cats. They are regularly fed, played with and snuggled at home. I do my best to keep a clean litter box and clean up after pups.

About: I grew up with dogs, cats and horses. When I wasn’t caring for my furry family you would often see me at my neighbors helping with their horses and goats. Sadly I’ve cared for two of my own Labradors that had cancer so I have experience providing medication and I currently have two amazing older ragdoll cats who both receive medication for arthritis. I recently left the healthcare world to broaden my career with our furry family members. I have open availability and so excited to start this new adventure. My country gated community will provide safe and healthy walks. Your furry family member can enjoy the nature around this country home. You will often see my neighbors out walking their dogs or simply enjoying a country walk. There is a dog park in the works coming soon. I offer care in my home as well as your home. Whatever your needs are I’m happy to help care for your pet while you’re working or vacationing.

About: I have loved animals for as long as I can remember! My family has always had multiple pets in our home at a time. I currently own a dog named Jax, and two cats named Milo and Lee! I have experience with dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperament. I have taken care of puppies, blind/deaf dogs, big dogs who like to take you on a walk instead 😅, cuddly and energetic labs, shy dogs who may hide, and I love them all the same! I am a nanny, so I also take my part in loving and taking care of their animals in their home or when they may travel! As a pet mom myself, I understand how big of a decision it is to search and trust for someone to look after your fur baby. That’s why I will always focus on communication and providing updates and pictures so you can feel at ease and comfortable. All animals are family, and I will treat your pet as if they were my own. When I come to your home, I promise to come with all the extra snuggles, belly rubs, or anything your pet may need to feel comfortable, keeping up with routines, required needs, and all different personalities. If your pet may need special medications, I also have experience with that area! I’m currently a college student, home full time for the summer! I go to a community college, so long term care is also available! Some hours may just change once I start again this Fall semester :) I care for each pet as if they were my own. My animals are my babies, my world, and I expect it is the same for all pet owners. You putting your trust in me to care for your babies means the world to me, and you won’t regret it! :)

About: I grew up on a farm in a small town in Ohio. I have experience with cows as well as cats, dogs, and even mice! I grew up mainly with cows, pet wolves, and a black lab. I have had a few cats over the years, and I currently have a Toy Fox Terrier named Zara! I am currently training Zara, so I have some experience in dog training and would be willing to help train for a little extra! I look forward to meeting you lovely parents of our 4-legged friends! I am currently a full time student and hoping to make pet-sitting my part-time job. I am available on weekends and most school days! I will provide more information on my schedule if you choose to work with me! I take great care to ensure that your pets are as comfortable as possible in my care! If you choose to hire me, I will have you write out specific instructions to ensure that I follow the same routines that your pet is used to!

“We had a great experience with Makenzie! She is the sweetest and took such good care of our pups! She always arrived on time and provided updates with photos after each walk! It gave us great peace of mind while we were out of town. We will definitely use her again!”

About: Although it was many years ago, I was a pre-veterinary student, so I worked for a few different veterinarians for 6 years. During that time i also house sat and walked dogs for many of our clients. I have continued to keep up with my knowledge and can give you a recommendation from my current/personal vet. In recent years I have house sat for and walked dogs for friends and family, Unfortunately, I can't have dogs to my home due to my rescue kitty, but i love taking care of all animals. I would also love to house sit and take care of kitties. I have also volunteered for a therapy program working with horses and dogs for kids with disabilities for the past 5 years, so I'm extremely comfortable with large animals too! I don't have another job, so my schedule is very open. I do like to go home for at least 4 hrs when possible, but that is negotiable. My goal is to keep your pet on their normal schedule and I'm really good at that! I follow all instructions to the letter! I love giving snuggles and walks. I will take care of your home as if it's my own! I will bring in mail, water plants, take care of bird feeders etc... just ask!

“Kristi did an excellent job with Bo! He was very excited to see her and had a fun walk with her and slept well after. :-) She did a great job at keeping me updated throughout the walk, and I was very pleased overall!”

About: I have had 7 pet dogs in my life, as well as 2 cats, 3 rabbits, and I have experience helping family friends with their animals from guinea pigs to cats and hamsters. I love and have a passion for animals, so why not let me help you take care of your pets? I have years of experience with my own pets, and I have recent (in the last 3 years) puppy experience! I helped train my dog Charlie, Teddie, as well as Addie! My current pups are all English Yellow Labrador Retrievers and I love them! I have no biases against any breeds ( even though Labradors are my personal favorite)! I’m excited to get to meet you and your pets! Please contact me with any questions you have. Let me help you love your pet! I currently work full time as a vet assistant at a vets office. I’m familiar with pet medications though I might not know all, it will not be hard to help care for your pet. Learning about their routine and keeping that as close to normal as possible is very important to me. It can be hard to have their family away and it is important that staying home is to help keep part of their routine normal, so to me keeping them on schedule and keeping there day as if you were there is important. Though I don’t live on my own so I’m not able to bring pets to my home I look forward to helping you with caring for your pets!

I just moved into my own home but I grew up with cats and have had a dog for 10 years. Feeding them and making sure running water was available was my number one priority!

“Kate took excellent care of our fur babies while we were away! They loved her drop in visits and fall walks and the photos show just how much fun they were having. We'll definitely use her again for future trips!”

About: I have been around animals my entire life, and I truly have a passion for caring for them! I have pet sat my friends and family's dogs and cats overnight as well as simple potty breaks or walks.

My priority will always be providing top care for your pet. When in a clients home I make sure to care for their home just like I would mine. I keep the home clean and make sure that everything is just as it was when the client left it. You can be sure that your pet will be in a safe and happy environment.

About: I have taken care of pets my entire life. I have cared for dogs of all sizes as well as cats. It’s not a job it’s a passion.
