“She was absolutely amazing with our three German shepherds! One of the first times we felt like we never had to worry about anything on a trip! She took care of everything and communicated with us often. We could not have asked for a better person! We will definitely be asking for her help again. Thank you so much!!!”
“I couldn’t have asked for anyone better than Kaitlyn. She was communicative, kept us up to date on the animals, sent pics, kept the house cleaner than I do, and the animals are relaxed and happy after our absence. It will be so much easier leaving them next time as long as we have Kaitlyn!”
“Joanna did a great job!! She was very communicative. She sent pictures of the pets regularly, followed all directions left, reached out with any questions, and left the house tidy upon the end of the service. She even came over a week before to meet the pets and familiarize herself with the location of foods and treats! Very thankful for her work!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was young. I love to take dogs on walks, give them lots of love and treats. We don’t deserve dogs, so I take pride in giving them the best care they could possibly need. I work in the office 4 days a week and home on Fridays! Can help and stop by as much as possible as long as it fits my work schedule! I have a fenced in back yard and a very sweet golden that loves to play! We spend most of our days outdoors and going on walks. I can crate dogs if needed.

“Elizabeth was amazing with our two dogs and cat when we were out of town for the fourth of July. Fireworks are very scary for one of our pups and she went above and beyond to help him feel safe. I feel like she treated our animals as if they were her own and that means so much. She is very professional and I am so happy we found her and will absolutely work with her in the future!”
About: I’ve cared for my bulldog at home for many years now and make frequent visits to my grandmothers house to help her take care of her beagles. I have always had a passion to make animals specifically dogs time on earth the best it can be. I know they are incredibly misunderstood and no matter the animal, I have always found a way to get along with the fur baby. On days I don’t work, it would be amazing to get the opportunity to do this as to me it’s not considered a job Make them feel comfortable and let them know that you are there for them. Have patience as each animal is different and requires a unique but understanding approach.
About: Hello! I am a positive-reinforcement based dog trainer and lover who has experience with a plethora of dog breeds, ages, temperaments, and medical issues. I have an extensive history with caring for and training dogs, with a specialization in the training of fearful or reactive dogs. I believe that the responsibility of caring for another’s pet goes beyond the necessities: it is ensuring that the dog is comforted during an often difficult time, and the owner is reassured that their pet is in the best hands. Further, it is necessary to be sure that the animals physical, emotional, and needs are fully met. I hope to establish a relationship with the pet(s) and their owners. I genuinely care about the wellbeing of animals and make a great effort to ensure that the pet is comfortable and well taken care of. I am currently working in other animal care positions and am able to adjust my schedule to your pet’s care needs. My schedule is relatively flexible, and can be adjusted. I have a sweet Shetland Sheepdog who lives with me, as well as cats. I am very cautious about keeping doors (and inside gates) firmly closed to ensure safety,
