About: ***I am independently insured through PetCare for greater peace of mind while you’re away*** I've recently gone through a career switch from caring for humans (I was a registered nurse) to caring for animals last year. However, I have loved and cared for several personal and friend’s pets, to include cats, dogs, guinea pigs, birds, and reptiles, throughout my entire life. I hold a strong passion for advocating and caring for all beings with empathy, patience, and understanding. Since my career switch, I have experienced pets who need extra attention due to daily medications, reactivity, older age, anxiety, and helping to instill training (I am not a certified trainer) the clients are already teaching their pet(s) during my walks and/or pet sits. Dog walking and pet sitting is my full time job now. Whether you need a midday walk or need someone to care for your pets while you escape on vacation, I’m available for either service throughout the week, weekend, and some holidays. While I do not provide care in my home, I do travel to your pets while you’re away. My approach to caring for animals is with a lot of patience and respect. I’m happy to take it slow for each animal that may be a bit timid at first. I have a lot of experience personally and professionally working with animals who are timid, reactive, etc. For new clients, I like to have a meet/greet to go over care instructions before the pet sitting/walking dates. This gives us the opportunity to ask questions and discuss further what you can expect while you’re away. My goal is to provide care the way your pet is used to. I send daily updates/pictures/video to give you the reassurance that your pet is being loved on just the way you would if you were there.
“Michelle was great! Posted notes and pics with every visit. Genuinely loves dogs. Friendly and positive interactions with her for key transfer and going over needs. Has husband as backup so all visits covered on time. Would definitely recommend.”
About: I have over 7 years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and small animals, including work in animal clinic settings. I’ve babysat dogs where I provided playtime, walks, feeding, and lots of attention and treats. I’m also experienced with small pets, as I care for my own bunny, so I understand their gentle handling and daily needs. I’m patient, reliable, and truly love making pets feel safe, happy, and comfortable. I am currently available during weekdays for drop-ins and walks/ playtime. For boarding and more availability on weekends please feel free to message me! Thanks. I have many years working as a Vet assistant at animal hospitals. I assure every pet is in safe hands with me, I will always go above and beyond for them as if they are my own.

About: I’ve been pet sitting for nearly 10 years now, starting when I was 11 years old! I have experience with dogs and cats, everything from a chihuahua to a 100+ pound golden doodle! I’ve also worked with cats of all ages I’m a college student living in this area for the summer, and I’d love to make some extra money pet sitting while I’m here! Mostly trying to find peace and joy this summer, and involving your sweet pets is definitely a part of that! No matter if we’re hanging around your house, walking around your neighborhood, or taking a trip to your dog’s favorite dog park, your pet’s comfort and safety are my top priority! I’m entering their space and their lives, so the first time we meet, i want to make sure your pet knows I’m safe and can be trusted! Just there to help and be a new friend.

Emily did a wonderful job dropping in to visit our 2 cats while we were away for a long weekend. She is very responsive and sent detailed updates and photos for each day so I felt assured they were being taken care great care of. Would love to use her again for future trips!

Krysta was communicative and extremely responsive before, during, and after planning and check ins with our big dog. She shared photos and updates, which gave us such peace of mind while away.

We really appreciated her services and resolve to make sure Meeko was taken care of.
