About: I have taken care of my sister dog for 7 months her name was chichi. I had lots of experience with taking her to walks, making sure she used the bathroom on her walks, also bathing her. I am very playful with dogs and make sure they eat and have a clean bowl of water. I work at my other job during the afternoon but I still am available to take care of your pups from 11am - 2:30 pm. I will always keep your pup in company. I love to watch over playful dogs and love to teach them new tricks. I’m a very kind and generous person and comfortable to be around with dogs.

“Ayah was a blessing!! This was our first time needing a cat sitter and I was a little nervous. Mr. Winston can be a little shy and usually hides when new people come over. But Ayah was able to get him out of hiding and he actually started to greet her when she would come over. She treated him so good while we were gone and I didn't worry at all. Ayah sent very thorough and thoughtful reports with pictures after each visit. I am very satisfied with the level of care she gave Mr. Winston and he seemed to enjoy their visits as well. I will definitely request Ayah again in the future.”

About: I have loved animals all my life. I think they really are a part of a family, and they deserve to be absolutely spoiled and shown all the love they can take I am self-employed so I have a very flexible schedule.

Make sure they are fed, always have water, entertained, played with, loved on and completely taken care of

About: I have owned dogs and cats since I was young. My ability to care for many dogs of all types, I’ve learned while being in animal rescue for 5 years. I work with all kinds of dogs and cats from all ages and backgrounds. I have ability to separate dogs who are not dog friendly with other furry friends. As well as cats. I have a very large fenced in yard and a beautiful neighborhood, and just minutes from the bike path- great for walking! My love for animals is immeasurable. All my spare time I have volunteered with an animal rescue by fundraising, and training dogs in need. I also foster in my home for dogs who are up for adoption. I can’t wait to expand my talents and love for animals by helping in my community.

About: Open to care for any friendly dogs while you're away! Relatively young (22), and thus have energy to play with them a bit more than older sitters. I'm currently looking for jobs so I will have an open schedule for the foreseeable future in terms of pet care. Would prefer afternoons and weekends, however. Care for dog at my own home by resting next to her whenever I am free and she is willing, as well as giving her walks. I will do the same for any clients' pets, of course varying on the animals' personality/lifestyle.

About: My family has had dogs my whole life of different types and sizes, now I raise a mini Bernedoodle. I have taken multiple puppy training courses which I could apply to any age dog. I work in law enforcement. My schedule is flexible due to my job and I will update my availability ASAP according to my work schedule. I spoil my dog and will do the same for any that come into my home. No human food is my big rule. My Mini-Bernedoodle is just over one year now and raising her has been very rewarding. I have taken multiple training courses on training young dogs but could apply these concepts to any age dog. I have a good size yard which I am able to walk my dog around when she goes to the bathroom. My yard is 3/4 fenced in and my neighbor doesn’t have any pets.

About: I have a big house with room to run and play. I'm happy taking care of the puppies and dogs that aren't quite fully potty trained. My family dog in Florida is not spayed so I have experience with females in heat. I don't mind cleaning up messes because the house is all mine. I have 2 small dogs living with me that are very spoiled. My little Einstein has allergies so I buy him special food, shampoo, conditioner, etc to help with his itchy skin. He is a quiet little one who loves meeting new pups. My little Lola loves to cuddle and chew on her bone. You can be certain that your dog will be spoiled too. I also have 2 cats, Harley and Quinn, who have their own room where they love to play. As for me, I'm a Preschool Teacher. My work is right down the road so I come home and let my dogs out during lunch. My dogs go out every couple hours when I'm home. Spending time with my dogs and cats is probably one of my greatest joys.

About: I have experience as an overnight pet sitter, drop-in visitor, and dog walker, providing dependable and attentive care tailored to each pet’s individual needs. I truly love dogs and all animals, and caring for them is something I genuinely enjoy and am passionate about! One of my greatest strengths is communication. I understand how important it is for pet owners to feel informed and at ease, so I make it a priority to provide regular updates, photos, and quick responses. I treat every pet like they are my own and work hard to ensure both pets and owners feel happy, comfortable, and confident in my care. As a college student home for the summer, I have a very flexible schedule throughout the day for dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. Along with my nannying experience and active lifestyle, caring for pets fits naturally into my routine. I’m dependable, organized, and love spending time with animals, whether that’s going on walks, providing overnight care, or stopping in for visits and playtime. I always make it a priority to keep pets comfortable, safe, and on their normal routine when I’m caring for them in a client’s home. I follow all feeding schedules, walking routines, medication instructions, and any specific care requests to make sure each pet feels as stress free as possible. I love spending quality time with animals through walks, playtime, cuddles, and attention based on their personality and needs. In a client’s home, I make sure to respect the space, keep everything clean and organized, and provide regular updates with photos and communication so owners feel comfortable while they’re away.
