About: Looking for the perfect person to care for your pet this summer? Look no further! My name is Justine and I have been caring for pets my entire life. Walking, exercising, basic grooming, training, I do it all! When your pet is with me, I will care for him/her as if they are my own. Communicating with you about all your petcare preferences, I will assure you that you can be at ease leaving your little love behind. Furthermore, I will update you with pictures of all your pets snuggles and adventures! I have experience with all kinds of pets, all ages, dietary restrictions, special needs, etc. My own dog, Oaklin, I trained to be a therapy dog and he used to work with me at a school. He is extremely friendly and if you are booking for your dog, he would love to tag along for a puppy play date (which is excellent for socialization and helps ease separation anxiety). Please let me know if you would like to book Oaklin as well for your dog's drop-in visit or walk. I always bring Oaklin on overnights with me, as I am a single dog mom myself. From June 28-August 8th I have open availability! Currently, I am a teacher, so I'm only available 5 PM or later on weekdays, and occasionally on weekends until June 28th. . I have cared for pets with varrying energy levels, ages, training, interests, and health conditions. When I care for your pet, I will treat it as if it is my own. I will be an extention of you while you are away to keep things as normal for your pet as possible. Let's chat about your pets needs and figure out what works best for your pet.

“Alicia is great with Harper! He is always so excited to see her! She is great with last minute changes of a hectic schedule and helps out when she can”


About: I have worked with both high energy dogs and senior dogs. I also have experience working with young puppies and ensuring all dogs are well cared for. I currently have a very flexible schedule and am able to work with the pet parent (s) to figure out the best schedule for them and their pet! I have two high energy black labs, and I always make sure they are staying active with daily walks, fetch outside or in the pool along with mental stimulation (lick mats, toys, training and puzzles). One of my dogs struggles with allergies and other health issues, so I am always in tuned to their health.

About: I've always had an immense love for dogs, growing up surrounded by them. For over a year, I've had my own dog, and I’ve had the joy of caring for a cat for several years as well. In addition to my own pets, I frequently babysit two of my friends' dogs, providing them with love, attention, and care while their owners are away. With years of hands-on experience, I understand the unique needs of both cats and dogs, and I’m dedicated to offering them a safe, comfortable, and fun environment. I’m currently working part time, so I have plenty of time to play with your pups! I am usually off mostly during the weekdays, occasionally on weekends as well! Will always keep my availability up to date! I offer a safe and loving environment with a fenced yard, perfect for playtime and walks. I stick to your pet’s routine and provide plenty of attention and care. If needed, I can easily crate your pup and will work on basic training to reinforce good behavior. Your pet will enjoy a mix of exercise, comfort, and fun, with regular updates to keep you at ease.

“Our dog is a little uncomfortable with new people, but Daniela was always patient, and now he is comfortable and gets excited whenever she comes!”


About: Hi, I'm Paula! I've been a passionate pet lover all my life and I've had the joy of caring for dogs of all shapes and sizes for over 8 years.

I am also certified in pet First Aid & CPR! When I'm not pet-sitting, I am a county employee and a volunteer firefighter. I’d be honored to keep your pet happy, safe, and loved while you're away! 🐶🚒 Caring for pets is a natural part of my day! Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or check-ins, I love making sure they’re happy and well cared for. I treat every pet like my own when I visit a client’s home. From feeding and walks to cuddles and playtime, I make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable.

About: I have been a lover of animals for years. I am comfortable with all animals big and small, young and old. I am also intrigued by animal training as I am currently becoming certified in ABA. I am currently working during the weekdays from 8:45 to 2:45 but I am available afterwards or even early mornings. I am also free all weekend! I provide a loving, and warm environment for all animals. I believe animals need opportunities strive in their environment, but I understand how that can be difficult to be achieved. This is why I believe stimulating activities such as play and walks encourage a healthy mindset and behavior for animals.

About: Super caring, reliable and responsible. I’ll treat your furbaby like my own! I’ve had dogs and cats since childhood and began walking my neighbor’s dogs at age 9. Making money doing something I truly love has always been especially rewarding. I’m experienced with all sizes, breeds, ages and temperaments. Some of the breeds I’ve rescued, fostered and cared for include Pointers, Terriers, Retrievers, Chihuahuas, Doodles, Bulldogs, Mutts and designer dogs. As well as cats, bunnies birds and reptiles. I love them all equally! I take whatever approach necessary to tailor my care and attention to match your pup’s needs, whether they are high energy or easy breezy…I will be sure to provide a great experience for them. Your dog and I can go for walks or hang in your yard. Go on play dates or spend quality time…a one on one game of fetch or just snuggles.

I also invite them to hang in my fully furnished basement, known as the Wags Lounge, set up to accommodate multiple dogs at a time. Furnished with a large sofa, fluffy dog beds, soft blankets, snuggle floor mats, tons of toys, fresh filtered water, treats, cool A/C, flatscreen TV and streaming music or stress relieving sounds for those nervous visitors.

About: Hello everyone! My name is Dilara (Lara) and I am a full time college student! I have three beautiful babies, one girl samoyed, one girl cat and a boy cat!

On my free times, I would love to help out other pet lovers while spending time with beautiful babies! I am a full time college student and I have classes most days other than Wednesdays, but since I am a last year my classes start late afternoon so I am able to come in the morning or after them! I have helped out friends with their own babies whether it’s walking or dog sitting in their house for a couple hours! My two cats also live with me and I make sure to get at least an hour of playtime with them as much as I can. My boy cat had some health complications in the past therefore I always keep an eye out and makes sure he eats his prescription meals everyday! It is important for me to listen the babies since my girl cat is very shy and I make sure to not scare her away by not crossing her boundaries!
