“Jessica was so great! Very reliable and communicative. She took such good care of my two dogs while I was gone and kept me updated throughout the visits so I knew they were in good hands! Thank you for everything!”

About: Animals have always been family in my home. I had a Terrier who I cared for throughout every stage of life into their elderly years, which gave me experience with senior dog care, patience, and understanding changing needs as dogs age. I’ve also spent a lot of time around other family dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and anxiety needs. I understand that every dog has their own temperament and comfort level, and I make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for like part of the family. Whether a dog is playful and energetic or shy and anxious, I’m patient, attentive, and focused on creating a calm environment where they can feel comfortable. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home, so I am almost always home with the dogs. I absolutely love dogs and enjoy giving them attention and affection. My home is very family-oriented, and pets are treated like part of the family. I will be the primary caregiver at all times but there will be tons of love from my family as well. I have a fully enclosed fenced backyard where dogs can safely play, run around, and get fresh air. I also enjoy taking dogs on walks around Uptown or to local parks for exercise, stimulation, and fun. Since I spend most of my time at home, I am able to provide consistent care, potty breaks, playtime, cuddles, and a calm, loving environment where dogs can feel comfortable and cared for. I provide loving, attentive care for pets both in my home and in my clients’ homes. Since I work from home with a flexible schedule, I’m able to give pets plenty of attention, supervision, potty breaks, playtime, walks, and companionship throughout the day. In my home, pets are treated like family and have a safe, comfortable environment with access to our fully enclosed fenced backyard for exercise and outdoor time. I make sure every dog feels comfortable, secure, and cared for based on their individual personality and needs. I’m available for dog walks, drop-in visits, dog sitting, and boarding. Whether your dog is energetic, shy, anxious, or a senior needing extra patience, I focus on creating a calm, caring experience and keeping pet parents updated for peace of mind.

“Hazel was so accommodating and worked around her schedule to make sure my Koko was cared for. I could tell that Koko felt very comfortable with her. Thank you, Hazel!”

About: I treat every pet like my own. I have experience with puppy training (potty, crate, leash basics) and senior care, including medication and mobility support. I’m reliable and keep pet parents updated for peace of mind. Caring for pets isn’t an extra task for me it’s something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize, reliable care. plus I am a mom cat he is boy Since i have a pet My goal is not just to “watch” your pet, but to build trust, provide enrichment, and create a calm, loving environment while you’re away. I pride myself on strong communication with pet parents providing updates, photos, and reassurance so you always feel confident your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.

About: I have taken care of animals for as long as I can remember, a mixture of my own pets and those of my family and friends. Having grown up with dogs, I have constantly been around them and have grown to be comfortable with them. I am also willing to learn and adapt to take care of and meet the needs of your animal as best as possible. Every time I go to walk, play, or take care of your dogs, I will commit to showing them all the love while you are away! I have a dog of my own- a while Terrier Mix that is always full of energy! I am currently on summer break from college, so I have a ton of availability and am able to accommodate lots of walks, drop-ins, and house sittings as needed. I am also able to accept last-minute bookings! When in your home, I would love to take your doggy on walks or to the park. Anything that you already do to make your dog feel comfortable! When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for by sticking to their normal routine as closely as possible. I provide regular walks, feeding, fresh water, playtime, bathroom breaks, and lots of attention. I also clean up after pets, monitor their behavior, and make sure the home stays clean and secure. I understand every pet has different needs, so I always try to be patient, reliable, and attentive to their personality and routine.

About: I am a college senior studying insects and environmental science. I love to spend time in nature and learn about the bonds humans and animals can have! I love all living things and live by kindness and respect for what nature has provided to us. I love dogs, but do not currently own one. I have a wonderful 3-year-old pet bearded dragon at home, so I am very experienced in how much time and effort it takes to have a little creature depend on you. I love to spend time outside and am an active hiker and nature walk participant. I love to stop and admire greenery and rocks as a dog would, so I am sure I'd get along with many of them! I currently go to school full-time, and I am available most evenings and during lunch times, as well as in the mornings. I will take any time out of my day when I am free to hang out with dogs! I currently live on an open campus with lots of green area, there is more than enough space for a puppy to roam around, there is also multiple parks nearby that dogs tend to frequent. I'd be more than happy to take the pup wherever they please!

“Amazing helped me have peace of mind while out of town. Thank you again Shanna!”

“Nancy was amazing with my pup Suki! Suki is usually timid and shy, although warmed right up to Nancy, due to her friendly personality. I appreciated Nancy’s communication through out the day and timeliness for the drop in. We look forward to having her care for Suki in the future. Highly recommended!”

About: Hi! I’m a big animal lover with experience caring for dogs of all sizes, from playful puppies to sweet senior pups, who need a little extra TLC. I’m comfortable with different energy levels, routines, and personalities, and I always focus on making pets feel safe and happy. I also have experience with cats and kittens, from energetic little ones to more independent adult cats. Whether it’s playtime, feeding, or litter scooping, I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’d love to meet you and your furry family! I’m currently working remote and will have plenty of time to play with your pup! Their structure during the stay here will follow the same as our own pup with morning and evening walks and let outs every few hours throughout the day (unless you have a preference for your pup). I have a gate separating our 2 elderly cats who are only indoors and live upstairs and the downstairs where our pup resides. We have an extra room downstairs where boarders can stay. Safety is very important to me!

“Emilia was absolutely fantastic. She walked two dogs I’m currently sitting for, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the start, she was communicative, reliable, and clearly experienced with handling multiple dogs at once. What stood out most was the level of care and attention she gave them. She sent photos during the walk, which was incredibly reassuring and thoughtful. You could tell the dogs were comfortable, engaged, and genuinely enjoying their time with her. When they came back, they were perfectly tired in the best way—calm, happy, and clearly well-exercised. That alone speaks volumes about the quality of her walk and how well she managed their energy. It’s not easy trusting someone else with animals in your care, but Emilia made it effortless. I would absolutely use her again without hesitation and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, attentive, and professional dog walker.”

About: I have 14 years experience beginning with a puppy growing into a 14 year old senior. I understand the love for your dog is like a family member and I feel the same way!

Holidays are available also with notice I have a smaller fenced back yard, a large park next door for walks and play time. I have a crate available if wanted/requested. Pet beds also available if wanted

Has been my solid support through my divorce!

About: Thoughtful, dependable care and clear communication are at the center of how I approach pet sitting. I’ve always naturally connected with animals and enjoy providing warm, attentive care that helps them feel secure and relaxed while their owners are away. With years of experience caring for dogs and cats through house sitting, drop-in care and overnight stays, I’m very comfortable maintaining pets’ routines and helping them feel settled and comfortable in familiar spaces. I also have experience caring for a variety of animals beyond cats and dogs, including rabbits, fish and reptiles, which has helped me become very attentive, adaptable, and detail-oriented when it comes to animal care. What sets me apart most is my attentiveness, communication and calm presence. I understand how important it is to feel fully comfortable leaving your pets in someone else’s care, so I make it a priority to provide thoughtful updates, photos and dependable care throughout each stay. I’m patient, respectful of your home and strive to care for pets in a way that feels personalized to their needs and personalities. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, loved and comfortable while giving owners peace of mind knowing their pets are in caring and reliable hands. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine, and I’m able to dedicate focused time and attention to the pets I care for throughout the week. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to accommodate drop-ins, house sitting, feeding schedules, playtime and regular companionship depending on each pet’s needs. I understand how important routine and familiarity can be for animals, so I always try to maintain their normal schedule as closely as possible while providing plenty of attention, patience and companionship. I’m very attentive to details such as feeding instructions, walking routines, medications if needed, household preferences and any behavioral or comfort needs your pet may have. I also make it a priority to keep spaces clean, secure and respectful throughout each stay. Communication is very important to me, so I provide regular updates and photos to help owners feel informed and reassured while they’re away.

“Janet did a great job checking in on my two pups.. never once did I have to worry about anything. She also made sure they got their meds and spent quality time with them. I will definitely be using her in the future. Thank you Janet”

“Sarah was wonderful with Suki! It was her first time with her, and Suki was nervous, but Sarah made her feel comfortable and on the second day she even gave Sarah kisses! Also love the fact that when she came for a meet and greet, she asked me if there was anything specific I needed her to do when she came by for a drop-in. She was very professional and on time! Highly recommend!”

If needed at the dog parents home I can follow instructions to whatever you need.

“Kelli was a total trooper and went above and beyond what I hired her to do, which was just check in on my elderly pups while I took a me day to hike with friends. For some reason the lock on my side gate failed after she took one of them on a walk. We eventually sorted it out but Kelli was kind enough to stay with my girls while I tried to get a neighbor to help since I was 1.5hrs away in the mountains. Through out the whole ordeal Kelli was super patient and understanding, a total angel.”

About: I grew up with and cared for all kinds of pets, even farm animals! I currently have 3 cats and 2 puppies. I've also cared for pets in clients homes as a caregiver. I'm currently doing school online so I have a lot of free time to hang out with your fur baby and a flexible schedule for consistency. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routines, and needs. Whether that means long walks, playtime, cuddles, or quiet companionship, I adjust my care to what makes your pet happiest. I closely follow all care instructions, including feeding, walks, medications, and any special needs. Communication is key so of course you'll be getting updates and some cute pics of your babies.

“Marilyn, thank you so much for taking such great care of Zeus. He definitely enjoyed his walks and thank you for all the pictures. We can’t wait to rebook with you.”
