About: I have been pet sitting since I was fourteen and have experience taking care of elderly, special needs, and young animals. I am a dog person at heart, but I love all animals and want you to feel assured while at work or out of town that I will take care of your pet. I work split shifts and have a flexible schedule where I can come home often on days that I work to let pets out and stretch their legs. I love playing with animals and make sure they have the attention they need while you are away. While at my home my dog Buddy loves other animals and will help them feel welcome.

“Timothy was great with my dog. They went for a walk and played in the yard for a bit. My dog was very excited to see Timothy. I will definitely use him again.”

About: I've worked at a vets office and have had many animals my whole life. My family has trusted me with their pets at home too. I do schooling at home so I am available to take care of your animals anytime. Weekends are open for me as well. Just let me know! I am pretty good with animals. I may be small but I can handle most dogs. If you have the supplies at home ill do whatever is needed for your fur baby.

About: There has never been a time I didn’t have a pet under my roof. I currently have 3 large breed dogs; as well as I was an emergency vet tech for 5 yrs. I have an open schedule and most availabilities. Do not prefer to bring animals back home to watch because I have no fence on the property (yet). I take my boys for small walks daily and can do the same for yours as well as I know about “Raw Diet” if that’s what you prefer and needs feeding during my visit. I’m comfortable with all size dog breeds as long as they are ok with me. My dogs will eat before I do and I put my boys first. We go on daily walks and They run with me on a golf cart I run around the property. This is a 7 days a wk routine for me and they always let me know when they wanna go out. I’ve never not owned a dog as well as never lost one. I will not be doing in home boarding. I have no fence and 3 other dogs near a busy road. Apologies and may change in the future

“Melissa is very reliable and responds quickly. Max and Ruby love their walks with Melissa, they always have the biggest smiles in all the picture updates. Would highly recommend Melissa, your fur babies will be well taken care of.”

About: I have volunteer experience for 3 years at my aunts vet . I would walk, groom, feed, and play with the dogs. The job was amazing, no dog left unhappy! I am a full time worker, my schedule does not extend the whole day. I only work 4-5 days out the week. I am a full time student with classes online. I care for all the pets the same. Each pet will get the best treatment. I treat as if their my own. Especially special needed dogs. If there are instructions on what a pet needs or can not have, it will be followed through and taking seriously. I go by the owners schedule.

About: Experienced dog owner who can help take care of all breeds and all ages. Skilled in training puppies and the use of an electronic leash, invisible fences, and e-collars. Avid dog walker. I work from home and have flexibility to provide part time and temporary care for your beloved dogs in your home or mine. I can pick up dogs for walks or they can be brought to me for a walk or to wear them out🤣. I have a fenced in yard with 3 doodles that are very easy going and get along with all other dogs. There are no children at my home.

“We just got in to town and we I had a family emergency. We didn’t have anyone to take care of our pets. She was on the spot and made me feel comfortable to leave my pets and home in her trust.”

About: I am very attentive with animals, organized, on time, and currently looking for some extra ways to earn a little more cash. I’ll make sure any requests you have are done the way you wish. I can feed, play, walk, and give any medications to your pet if necessary. If you have a usual walking route you like taking i’d be more than willing to comply. I’ve been around dogs long enough to know your basic dos and don’ts. I’m only available on weekends preferably mornings, unless you request ahead of time (no guarantees). please let me know if you have anything specific i should know about your pet thanks you :) I am looking forward to spending a small part of my day with your fur babies :) I currently work full-time, but have more than enough time on my hands on weekends and some weekdays depending on my schedule for the week. I love being around animals, they heal my heart especially after my dog passed last year. I truly desire some kitty or puppy love in my life. I live in a quite duplex apartment complex. I have a genuine love for animals, can follow directions, crate if needed, give medications, and entertain your babies for some time.

About: I have always had a passion for working with animals! I have owned cats, dogs, hamsters, birds, fish and chickens! I have volunteered at multiple animal rescues. I also have some experience training dogs. I am available every day of the week. I understand that things come up on short notice and when that happens you need to find someone to care for your pets ASAP! I am here to fill that need. I am available to come to your home to care for your pets. I also have space available in my own home for a fur baby that is compatible with my own.

About: I am a certified professional dog trainer under animal behavioral college. I have years of a wide range of experiences. I’ve always had a special bond with all kinds of animals since I was little. Taking care of them is my passion. I also have many years of experience caring for different kinds of animals as well. Your needs come first! I work part time a few days of the week, however my schedule is very flexible and can be adjusted according to your pets needs. I have a very large fenced in back yard and allow pets inside. I’ve got 5 friendly dogs that roam inside and outside.My dogs are treated like family and so will yours!

About: I have been passionate about caring for animals from a young age, often taking in and helping stray cats whenever possible. I have an 8 year old Rat Terrier who is in excellent health. I manage his daily feeding, regular walks, grooming, and give him vet checks when needed. I have two cats that I rescued as strays, providing them with a safe and stable home. I also care for a bearded dragon, including maintaining her habitat and breeding Dubia roaches to ensure she has a consistent, nutritious food source along with her vegetables. Through these experiences I feel that I have developed strong skills in animal care and responsibility. I currently work a full-time morning position and am available for pet care services between 2:00 PM and 11:00 PM, seven days a week, with some mornings. I’m also flexible and willing to adjust my schedule or request time off when needed to provide attentive, consistent care for your pets while you’re away. I live in a pet friendly apartment with my own dog and cats, and I’m able to safely walk and care for pets without issue. I like to keep my home calm and secure for my animals, with close attention to their comfort, daily routines and habits. I also have experience managing behaviors such as stress chewing, and I use solutions like crate training when appropriate to ensure both the pet’s safety and the condition of the home. If similar situations occur while caring for a client’s pet, I am confident in my ability to respond responsibly and maintain a safe, clean, and supportive environment at all times.
