About: I’ve had pets since childhood, including a cat and dog into hospice age. I live downtown and work from home from a pet-friendly apartment with an elevator and a small fenced in potty area. With splitting custody of my large bernedoodle, I’ve got plenty of free time to help take care of your pet too! I work from home 8-5ish and can be flexible when it comes to walks or bathroom breaks. My dog spends every other week with me, he does great with other dogs but between those weeks, I have plenty of free time to take on other dogs. I live and work in a large pet-friendly apartment with an elevator and a fenced in potty area. As I’m centrally located downtown, I can get to other places in town if needed.

About: Caring for people and pets comes naturally to me. I worked in nursing for several years before leaving to care for my father full time.between that and being a mom giving love and care comes easy. I have 3 dogs of my own, all of which are friendly and love a bit of play time. I am a big believer in fresh air and exercise. Let's get those steps in for your 4 legged family member. I don't work a regular job, I care for my elderly father and do some side work here and there. So I am available for walking or drop in visits at a moments notice. I have a fenced in yard and food and treats at the ready. Many leashes and brushes and more. I have 3 dogs of my own that love to play with each other and yours too. I can also keep my dogs away if yours isn't socialized to others.

About: I grew up on a farm, caring for pets of all shapes and sizes! I've had many dogs over the years, from young to old and big to small. I am experienced with giving medication, baths, nail trims and love! I am very adaptable to your pets needs. For the summer, I work weekdays two hours a day with some volunteer work on the side. I have occasional shifts on my campus that may be longer but will know in advance if I am available that day or not to make sure the pet sitting does not overlap. Starting August 25th, I have classes that last 3-4 hours during the day Monday-Thursday. If your pet can wait that long for me to come back, I am available to book! I am still fully free Friday-Sunday. I am able to host pets in my apartment! I live in an upstairs apartment and spend most of my time there. I have a 360°camera installed to watch your pet if I have to spend any time away. My apartment complex has a spacious lawn that is entirely fenced in. In my clients home, I am extra careful to follow any house rules. In case of overnight caretaking, I am comfortable with any sleeping arrangements (couch etc.). My top priorities are your pup and your preferences!

“Luna has separation anxiety when I leave her with new people/places. Sarah was great with Luna, providing a safe environment for her. Luna seemed happy when I picked her up.”

About: I have raised dogs, cats, bunnies, horses, and chickens my entire life. I currently have a Pug and a Boston Terrier, both puppies. I work from home and can provide day care, over nights, walks, pop-ins, etc. I am right down the street from Gateway so if you need a place to drop your animal off on your way to work downtown, I make a convenient drop off location. Very flexible with times. Air conditioning inside, large fully fenced backyard, and walks daily. 24/7 availability for pet care so long as we communicate in advance. I work from home and can be available based on your needs. I am available for drop off and pick up any time. There are a few times throughout the day where I will be driving my kids to and from events. We can communicate and work around those times. I also have a keypad. Animals are watched closely in the home and kept inside the fence in the backyard under supervision. When on walks animals are always on leash and are one on one with me. Separate food and water bowls are used. My yard is cleared of excrement daily. All animals must be up to date with shots and worming and flea/tick prevention.

“Really great experience!”

About: I believe that animals were put on this earth to show us how to love! The least we can do is return the favor ❤️ I work from home so I have all the time to show your pet love away from home! When I'm not working I have most evenings and weekends available to check in when they are at home! I have a Fenced in yard and two dogs to keep your pup company! I also have an XXL crate needed if that helps comfort them, so that they have their own space when needed!
