“Alicia was friendly during our meet & greet and was able to accommodate a last minute booking request. She was flexible with timing, consistent with her care and sent photo updates after each visit. I would definitely hire her again!”
About: I’ve had different types of dogs since I was young. I’ve trained dogs for all types of reasons. I’m a lover of all pups and can handle your dogs needs. I own a large property specifically for the environment, which is perfect for dogs. I look forward to meeting your doggie and returning a happy pup back to you. Please message for any details. I’m available on weekends and weeknights. I work full time M-F, so weekends are primarily open. While I can do many activities during the work week, I am gone about 8 hours for my primary job. Weeknights and weekends are available. I have a large property with plenty of room to roam. Chickens in the yard (in coop). I have a 6 year old pup of my own that is very docile, loves other animals and gets along with them easily, and is my number two. I don’t have a fence because my dog is perimeter trained. However, I can perimeter train your dog too or walk them on a leash if that is preferred. I plan to add a fence soon and will update this once I do.
“Lisa was fantastic! Always included pictures of her visits and was super communicative when she saw that someone wasn’t feeling great, going above and beyond cleaning up messes! I was completely at ease knowing she was looking after our pups.”
“Marie has been such a fantastic help in helping get our cane Corso pup acclimated and let out during the day to go potty! She’s so patient with him, gives the most thorough updates and sends such great pictures ! He is struggling to crate train, but I can tell he looks forward to when Marie visits and plays with him and it gives my husband and I such peace of mind and we can’t thank her enough! Highly recommend Marie and her expertise she’s so wonderful!”

“Lauren was a perfect sitter for our cats and fish. She came by for a meet and greet before we left and gave us updates while we were away.

About: Hi! I’m Melissa, and caring for animals is truly one of my passions. I currently volunteer at the Talbot Humane Society, where I work with rescued and often neglected pets. This experience has taught me how to handle all kinds of temperaments with patience and love. I’m reliable, communicative, and will care for your pets as if they were my own. Whether it’s walks, overnight care, playtime, or special dietary needs, I’ve got it covered. I also have a background in healthcare, so I’m confident with medication schedules and attentive to health and safety. I am available any day and time that works best for you and your furry friends. I am also available for overnight stays on a case to case basis. It is very important to recognize the needs of the pets and respond accordingly. Be patient and calm with pets that are scared or shy. Pets are very sensitive to change and may be missing their people. It is definitely important to maintain their regular schedule as much as possible.
“Jenna was a wonderful and competent pet sitter!! My dogs are not easy. They jump, they're big, they pull on the leash. Jenna handled them expertly. She came over when we were in a pinch, understood the directions completely, and we were so relieved and happy to have her care for our two. We got pictures of the dogs and good communication. It was obvious that they were well cared for. I definitely recommend Jenna!”

Seth G.
“Seth has been watching my dog for the past eight years, and I couldn’t ask for someone more dependable, attentive, and genuinely caring. He treats my dog like family, always making sure she’s well-cared for, loved, and happy while I’m away. Seth’s own dog, Ziggy, is the sweetest and loves other dogs. My pup always comes home tired from all the fun they have together! It’s such a comfort knowing she’s not just being looked after, but also enjoying herself. It’s hard to find someone you can trust so completely with your pet, and I feel incredibly lucky to have had Seth be such a consistent and caring presence in my dog’s life. I can’t recommend him highly enough to anyone looking for a dedicated and loving pet caregiver”
