About: Looking back on my childhood, it felt like a zoo (but in the most magical way). I sometimes can’t believe that my parents allowed guinea pigs, rats, mice, fish, hermit crabs, rabbits, and dogs into our home (not all at once though!). If I could do it again, I think I would have skipped out on the mice. I don’t recommend having mice with 24/7 access to an exercise wheel right next to your bed. Nighttime was fun. Anyways, we have one cat still with us (she’s 16 years) and she’s exactly how you would typically imagine a cat to be- solitary, feisty, and grumpy. We still love her, despite hardly ever seeing her. My kids (ages 4-12) and I are excited to take care of your dog(s)! Thank you for considering us! I have been a SAHM (stay at home mom) for almost 12 years. You can guarantee that between myself and my five children, your dog(s) will experience a lot of love and affection while you’re away! We love taking dogs for walks up and down our quiet street. My seven year old especially loves every time they go number two because that means he can use one of those doggie poo bags to pick it up. For some reason he thinks it’s the coolest thing. I hope he continues to feel that way for a very long time. I do not have a fenced in back yard, BUT it’s plenty big, and we enjoy showing and walking dogs all around our back yard (all while on a leash of course- unless you specify otherwise!) We also have plenty of spots in our home to set up crate(s) if needed. We look forward to caring for your sweet dog(s)!
“Christy came to check on my dog and let her out while we were at work on a routine basis for several months. I am home for the summer now and plan to call on Christy when we need help with our pets again. I felt completely confident relying on her and know that she can handle any situation that might come up. She is patient with my dog’s personality and gave me a thorough report each visit. She is quick to respond and takes her role as petsitter very seriously. I enthusiastically recommend her for pet services!”
About: As a military spouse, I understand how hard it is to find great care at an affordable rate and possibly the last minute. My goal is to provide love for your babies so that you may focus on whatever calls you away without any worries. I work remotely so any needs or schedules for your babies will be met promptly and to your liking. Please prepare a written list that I may follow. Things to expect when dropping off your babies: Your babies will be provided their own space within my sight at all times (until bedtime) and that space can be adjusted to fit their needs (bigger or smaller). They will be provided food, clean water, cuddles, and as much playtime as they need. If they have any special needs I will ask for written instructions and provide those needs as necessary. I can provide as much or as little communication as you prefer and make sure your babies are doing great while away.

“Jenna was great with my puppies and rally relieved a bunch of stress for me by stopping by on a last minute request! She is reliable and respectful. Definitely would reccomend!”
“Sara did a great job caring for our cat. She sent multiple (and very cute) pictures every day. It was obvious our cat liked her very much. We were gone several weeks in August so we asked Sara if she would do some outside watering. The yard looked amazing. We were very happy and would highly recommend her to others.”
