About: I have taken a wide variety of dogs from a Chihuahua to a German shepherd. Neighbors and friends have relied on me to walk, feed, give medications and play with their dogs. I have also stayed overnight servers different times. This has given a wide variety of experience with different cares and types of dogs. I am currently looking for part time summer jobs. I am fairly flexible and could work a variety of days and hours. I am able to pick up jobs at a short notice. I have a two weeks I would not be able to work but am free the rest of the summer. I am not currently in an apartment that would not suite dogs. I am comfortable and have experience with pet care in the home. I would be able to stay or night or visit throughout the day. I can walk, play and crate dogs if needed.

“I contacted Natalie for a last minute visit and she was able to drop-in and check on our three pups. They were all content and everything was in place. It gives us peace of mind knowing that we don't have to rush back from an outing, our pups are all happy and cared for.”


About: Hi, I’m Adriana — a yoga and meditation teacher with a calm, grounded presence that dogs seem to love. While I don’t have a dog of my own, I’ve long been the go-to dog sitter and walker for friends, family, and roommates. Whether it's weekends away, work days, or longer travel, I’ve reliably cared for dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I bring patience, mindfulness, and a deep respect for your dog’s energy and needs. I’m confident with walks, feeding routines, cuddle& downtime, and play sessions tailored to your pup. I’m also experienced giving oral and topical medications, though I prefer not to take on complex medical care or injections. My goal is to make sure your doggo feels comfortable, loved, and at ease while you’re away—so you can feel the same. I work part-time and have the flexibility to create my own schedule, which allows me to offer care during weekdays, weekends, and a variety of time windows. I’m reliable, communicative, and committed to making sure your pet is well cared for while you're away. I provide care in your pet’s home and neighborhood, where they feel most safe and at ease. I aim to keep their routine familiar and comforting—whether that means visiting their favorite parks, taking their usual walking routes, or keeping feeding and playtime consistent. I treat your home with respect, your pet with genuine care, and I’m always reliable and communicative to ensure you feel confident in the care your pet is receiving.

About: Hello everyone! I’m happy to be of service for you and your animals. I have many years of experience with dogs. I grew up with animals in my childhood home and am very comfortable with animals of all shapes, sizes, and ages. I have trained, raised and cared for several dogs myself. Daisy was a golden retriever, Zoe was my golden rough collie mutt, Molly was my 10-lb mutt, Charlie was my very sick mutt, Jess was my hyper husky blue heeler mutt, and now I have Frida. Frida is a sweet girl who loves to work. She is a border collie Australian Shepard mutt who came with me from ND. We are working on learning tricks and trying our hand at herding. Yes when I am with your dog we will work on basic obedience, manners, games, and tricks if you should like. I also have some experience with cats and would love more experience. I fostered a very sick kitten last year and have been around lots of friends’ and families’ cats. If there should be other animals that I have not worked with before, I would be happy to learn how to do so. And I would take my time to ensure I follow your care instructions thoroughly. Looking forward to helping you while you are away! Services in your home - you can rest assured knowing you have an extremely responsible and dependable person in your space. I will be respectful of your things and wishes. I will take extra care to follow your instructions precisely. I do have a dog of my own, which presents a unique opportunity. I can offer you a significantly lower rate if you want me to stay in your home and you allow Frida to be with me. Otherwise she will be kenneled in the car while I am in your home (if you are wanting me to spend the night in your home). I realize most people will not want this, but I wanted to throw it out there as an option for you. Services in my home - Dogs are allowed on the furniture and bed. They will have structure, routine, and lots of love. Please bring your kennel. If you do not have one, I have a wire kennel that they will use while here. I do kennel Frida when I have to leave the house and cannot take her with me. Your dog will enjoy lots of play time with Frida. We have a six foot fence and dogs will always be supervised while we are outside. Frida and I also really enjoy our walks and your dog would be one of the pack. Yes, I do require a meet and greet to learn all about your animal before I will accept a booking. Thank you for understanding. Love, Erin and Frida 💕 I am currently working part time, so lots of time to watch your animals and love on them. I would love to be able to watch your pets full time. So I am working on filling up my calendar. Let’s see where this can take me. Currently, Frida and I walk daily and it would be awesome to take a dog friend with us! Also, I am currently watching pets for people out of town. I go over in the morning to say hello to the cats, change water, fill food, clean litter box, and make sure they have optimal viewing spots by the windows to watch the birds. Then I return at night for play time, water plants, and make sure I repeat everything from the morning. I’d love to care for yours while you are away too! In my home I have a six foot fenced yard and a border collie policing the yard haha. I have one large wire kennel and one medium sized wire kennel that will house your dog should I need to run a quick errand. When I am in your home, I will be responsible and respectful. I will follow your house rules and keep your babies safe, loved, and cared for.

“Heather did drop in visits with my pups, she spent time playing ball and making sure they had ample outside time. I would highly recommend Heather for your next sitter.”


“Amara was wonderful with my dog for a drop in! We have a very excitable 80lb dog and she was so great with her! She was communicative, professional, and I loved all the updates and photos of my pup from her visit! We will absolutely be using Amara again 🐾”


“My 2 cats were nervous and hid under the bed when she came to visit. She worked with them and spent time earning their trust. She sent pictures each day. and her communication relieved much stress from leaving my cats for a week.”


“McKenna was awesome. We are to town just 2 weeks ago. It was so nice to find someone so loving for our 2 dogs and cat so we could join family at the lake today! Definitely will want McKenna for next time. Thank you!!”
