About: I have had multiple breeds of dogs or cats my whole life. I love all sorts of animals. They are more than a pet, they are family to me. I am working mom that just enjoys helping others out by watching their pets while they are out of town. I work typically 8am to 5 pm Tuesday through Saturdays and am available Sunday and Mondays any time. I am flexible. Each pet is different, but typically I make sure the pet is fed and has water. I allow for play time and depending on the weather, for dogs I will take for walks or play outside.

About: With a house full of three dogs, I have experienced everything from the puppy stage to slow moving seniors. Many friends, neighbors, and family members have relied on me to watch animals of all ranges including cats and guinea pigs. I have a couple of jobs here and there, but I love to make time to help families care for and tend to their sweet pets. At the homes of the pets I am caring for, I love to keep them entertained, take them on walks, and follow their everyday routine.

“Maya was great with my energetic puppy. Communicated well and send multiple pics on their walks.”

About: I have been taking care of pets since I was ten years old. In my family, pets have always been a big factor in creating a loving home. My bond with animals is very important to have in my life, which is why I am passionate about for caring them. Family members have relied on me to take care of their dogs and cats. At the moment, I have a cat and a dog who I truly love and care for the most. I hope that seeing this lets you know I care very much for our furry babies. I currently am going to school and working part time. I am looking for new ways to help others and making a little money on the side. I have always enjoyed taking my pets for walks and know that other families would appreciate it as well. I usually get extra time where I am available to trying to new things and feel this is what I should be doing. In my home I have two pets a dog and a cat who I adore very much. I have always treated them like they are my children and give them what they need. I always let my pets go outside and take them on walks as well. I feed them with the right meals they deserve and give them as much love as I can. I have always made sure my pets stay healthy and fit to enjoy their lives as long as they can. No matter what I always try to do the best I can to give the best life for my pets.

About: Hi there! My name is Cecilia, and caring for animals—especially dogs—is one of the greatest joys in my life. I have two beloved dogs back in my hometown: a sweet 15-and-a-half-year-old poodle–bichon mix and a 6-year-old goldendoodle with disabilities. They mean the world to me, and being away from them has only deepened my passion for caring for other people’s furry family members. Last summer, I had the privilege of working at a luxury dog boarding facility, where I cared for dogs of all sizes, breeds, temperaments, and unique needs—including those requiring extra patience and special attention. I was trained to read canine body language and behavior, and I learned how to adapt my approach to help each dog—whether a bouncy puppy or a wise senior—feel safe, calm, and emotionally and physically fulfilled. Animals hold a truly special place in my heart. I’m the type of person who pulls over to help a turtle cross the road, stops to meet a cute dog on the sidewalk, or sits with a stray cat to make sure it’s fed. Every animal encounter matters to me. I believe animals are so much more than companions—they’re a vital part of our lives. Their unique personalities and deep bonds bring joy, purpose, and connection, and I feel genuinely honored every time I get to spend time with them. Whether your pup needs a gentle, attentive sitter, an energetic walking buddy, or just someone to love on them like their own family would—I’m here, and I can’t wait to meet them! My schedule is quite variable yet flexible, as I am currently working part-time and attending school to become an EMT. I am often available on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays and during the evenings on weekdays, except Mondays and Wednesdays. Depending on my schedule week to week, I may also be able to do check-ins and dog walking during the day. I’m more than happy to tailor my care to meet your dog’s individual needs—whatever that may look like. Whether your pup requires leashed outings only or enjoys the freedom of a fenced-in yard, I’ll follow your preferences closely to ensure their comfort and safety. I want your dog to feel like they’re with family while in my care, and I’m fully committed to respecting both their routines and your home. You can also count on regular updates and plenty of photos, so you feel connected and reassured every step of the way.

“Isabella does a great job!”

“Woody had a wonderful time with Kaycee!! He highly recommends her for all your dog walking needs :-) Thank you, so much, Kaycee!!”

About: Hello, I’m Ashlyn! If you were to ask anyone who knows me what I’m like, the first thing they would tell you is that I am animal OBSESSED! I have been surrounded by animals + cats alike my entire life. I currently own two big dogs (Pitbull +Aussie) + one small dog (Shih Tzu) and a cat! I strive to ensure your pet has the best experience possible while you are away. Coming from a pet parent myself I know the fear of leaving your bestfriend in someone else’s care can be a lot. That’s why I believe it is important to keep you in the loop for a stress-free time away, while also giving your animal plenty of enrichment and love to distract their worried mind while you are gone. I am experienced with a wide range of different kinds of dogs. From reactive, friendly, and anxious I have seen it all. I am more then willing to work through quirks your animal has in order to make their experience the best it can be! Some training skills I am well-versed in is leash training, socialization, basic manners, puppy care, senior care, and separation anxiety issues. I am so excited to meet your animal and give it the best experience possible! For the end of August, I currently work Tuesday’s and Sunday’s. My schedule is usually 9-5pm or 1-9pm. Starting September 1st I will be working 3-4 days out of the week. Let me know your preferred schedule and we can make it work! I am absolutely able to leave work (distance permitting) during my break to let your animal outside and let out some energy if needed! After work I am able to give your pet some exercise whether that is a walk or playing with some toys after work. For house-sitting/ drop ins- I am a firm believer that following a similar routine to what the owner (you) follows will give your pet the least stressful experience possible. I will stick to your potty schedule for your animal as well as feeding. As for exercise, I am up to whatever your dog or cat prefers! I can go for walks, play fetch, provide enrichment with feeding time or play with toys. I am always willing to go to nearby park with your pup if preferred! Whatever your pet loves and makes them feel the safest! For dog-walking, I am willing to walk however long your animal needs! Does your pet have a favorite route? Let me know and I will follow it! Any nearby trails or parks? I am always down to visit them with your pup if wanted! I have personal experience with leash-pulling and minor reactivity so as long as I am made aware of these things and have met your dog, I am more then willing to work through these things on our walk!

“Araya was GREAT. Bailey loved her walks with her. Always timely and always cute pics and a note after every walk. When it was super cold out, Araya suggested some other options, and when Bailey seemed to be super distracted by other dogs, she suggested and started using treats to train her which were effective.”

About: I've taken care of pet/animals since I was 10. I've owned basically every animal (rodents, reptiles, cats, dogs, birds, fish, and exotics ect.) So I understand the needs of each animal. More info on my Pet Care Experience : I have taken care of senior animals, puppies, kittens, I also have given medication, clipped nails, and bathed with no issues. Play time is the best part of the day and is a breeze. I have a very flexible schedule and am generally available throughout the week to accommodate a variety of pet care needs. While I prefer to keep Saturdays free for personal time and rest, I’m open to discussing occasional Saturday requests with advance notice. Although I’m not naturally a morning person, I am dependable and adaptable when early care is needed. I’m committed to providing consistent, high-quality care and am more than willing to adjust my routine to meet the needs of both you and your pet.
