About: Animals are my life! I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends and passion for pet care comes from learning pet care from my dad who is police dog trainer. I currently work from home it's a flexible job so l would have plenty time for the pet. Also I would love to go out on walks. I have fenced yard where we can go out play, I have play toys, yummy treats for the fur babies. Also would love to go on walks. I do not take many pets in one service so I can provide more personalized services.

About: I've owned dogs for the past 20 years, first an Australian Shephard, then a yellow Lab. I've also cared for the dogs of friends and family. After the death of my most recent guy, Petey, I decided that I want the companionship of dogs without the vet bills$ I'm now retired from teaching and have all the time in the world to sit, walk, transport and care for dogs. I can accept dogs during the day or night, 7 days a week. Your dogs will be in an open setting in my home. I have a fenced yard so they can play. I live near a park and a riverfront, so long walks can be taken through natural settings. I accept only one or two dogs at a time, depending on the personality and behaviour of the dogs. I have a van that can transport dog to wherever they need to go.

About: I’m currently a student and working from from home and love dogs to my core. I have a 5 year old toy poodle named Mason. He’s so sweet & playful and he’s always looking for another puppy to play with. I have had experience with dogs my entire life, but in college I decided to get one of my own and I have no regrets yet! I will make sure your pet receives endless love and affection, long walks, loads of fun and trips to the dog park to mix and mingle. Safety of your pet is my priority so there’s no need to worry while they’re under my watch. I understand how stressful it can be to find someone you trust with your baby, so I will be sure to keep you updated throughout our day. I enjoy taking photos of my dog and nature so expect pictures updates as well. I am super flexible so for whatever you need, don’t hesitate to ask! I can’t wait to meet you and your pet! I’m available for daily walks, drop in visits and boarding. I work from home so I have the time and flexibility to care for your pet and give them the attention they need throughout the day. I am very respectful of your space and your dog and their’s. Making sure only do what I am advised to and anything outside of that I’d check with the owner prior.

“We have been sending our pup to Ron and Cherie's for the last few months and can't recommend them enough to other furbaby owners. They have been so flexible with our work schedules and so understanding if we are running behind. I'm so happy to have found a reliable and such a loving family to watch over our pup =)”

“Karen was a great help with Luna when I unexpectedly had to leave the dog home alone for a VERY long day. She came over to give her cuddle and pee breaks and a trip to Barkside, Luna’s home away from home. 💕 Even went the extra mile to clean up a little dog mess. Thanks!!!!!”

About: I’ve been a groomers assistant and bather at a grooming shop and doggie daycare for a few years in past and I have access to a dog bathing suite for $15 for the use and $25 per dog. Blow drying those furry friends coats out! :) I’ve been dog and house sitting for years and I have had a few dogs of my own. I get excited to see every dog and cat I meet, they really make my day. If you’re out of my walking radius and still would like me to care for your pets you can provide transportation fees then I’d be happy to accept the jobs if I’m available that are last minute when you can’t find someone else. This is my only job, caring for pets now. I have worked for over 30 years and I have found pet sitting to be the best retirement gig for my wellbeing. So I’m available quite a bit. I can walk dogs or do house visits for either cats or dogs. I can help with training if you have rules or something you’d like me to help with for your pets. I can also pick up an item you may need from premier pet shop.

About: I have taken care of various types of dog babies across many states. I learn quickly about what a dog needs especially when factoring in weather. I work from home most days and run in the evening. Usually long distance runs are in the morning so not inconvenient for night stays. For my home, I have a very spacious dog park and closed in balcony. Also live close to the riverwalk for night walks. There is space in home for medium sized crates if necessary.

About: I've been around dogs my whole life, my parents raised seeing eye dogs, and I helped with training and daily care from a young age. In my teens, I helped my mom run a small dog-boarding business out of our home, so I'm used to dogs with all kinds of temperaments and routines. Over the years, I've often been the go-to friend for dogs that need a little extra patience or understanding, whether that's a shy senior or a high-energy handful. I recently lost my own pup, and while l'm not ready for another full-time, I miss having a dog around and love being able to offer that care and attention to someone else's. I'm currently working on fixing up my very old duplex so I'm home, tinkering around most of the time, and my schedule is flexible. If you're worried about your pet being in a construction zone, not to worry! The living area is safe and segmented from anything that might be hazardous yet intriguing to your pet. I have a partially fenced yard, perfect for supervised play. Living in midtown means that there's plenty of interesting things to smell along walks. I can crate your dog if needed, and you're welcome to bring their own if that makes them most comfortable. I have quite a few house plants in my space, so please let me know if your pup is prone to chewing on them and I will move them out of the way for their visit.

“Awesome! He really helped me out when I was in a bind. Great with communication, following care instructions, and just being patient with my puppy. I will be sending Otis back to him when I need his help.”

About: I love animals! I’m a professional, working part-time and from home! I enjoy exercising and like to make it fun with my pup! I have a Bernedoodle puppy who loves playing with other dogs! I My siblings and I had many animals growing up from rabbits to horses to dogs—we had 8 at one time, with a cat! I like to think of us as the Doolittle’s :)! I’m ready and excited to provide pawsome, loving and attentive care to your animal baby! I’m currently working part-time and have a flexible work schedule; your pup will be priority. I am attentive and able to put your animals needs first. Fully fenced backyard and i will take your pup for walks in the neighborhood if that is preferred over play and bathroom use in the backyard.

“We dropped Ollie off while we went to a Tigers game. Lauren was great! Ollie is timid but he was comfortable right away. Location was very convenient”

“Jack was great. He watched my dog while we went to a concert at Ford Field. Very flexible with drop off and pick up time as we weren’t sure what time pick up time would be. Highly recommend him! Thanks Jack!”

About: I’ve been a pet owner for over 20 years, ranging from the typical fish, cat, and beloved Murphy, to include even a pet iguana (or two). 🥰 I have a fenced yard where both Murphy and your furry loved one can play and hang out. For overnight stays I have a large adult dog kennel that can accommodate a Mastiff just as comfortably as it can my Min Pin (who believes he’s the size of a Mastiff). 😄 I have an older dog with lots of energy and plays well with other dogs. I am an active person, so neighborhood walking is available for dogs with proper training. I can also provide some minor training reinforcement for puppies or young dogs learning new skills and/or tricks. 🐾 Tips are APPRECIATED!!! 🐾 I work from home! 🙌🏾 So my schedule is flexible and allows me to be able to work with and respond to clients in a timely manner. My home is fenced. All pets remain on the property unless they are taken for walks. I also will let clients know about overlaps in booking wih animals.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 18 years old. I’m a dog lover with a dog myself so I think I’m perfect for the job! I’m available all the time. I do work part time and I sometimes go out of town but otherwise I am free when you need me! I live in an apartment with a lot of grass area and multiple dog parks! I also have a dog bed for the puppies that stay!

They are surely in good hands. They will be well taking care of.receive the same amount of attention and love as if I was the owner. I’m located in Auburn ga so we have plenty of parks and long trails for our walks. They will have a nice bed to slp in. I’m also very clean so you want have to worry about your pet eating or getting into anything their not suppose to . I’m looking forward to be your next dog sitter.

I have a great back yard your baby can enjoy life in. I Also have to kids they love to play and run around very safe

About: I have taken care of every kind of animal: turtles, cats, dogs, bunnies, geckos, and more! I am comfortable with everything but snakes, and I can easily match their energy. I am great with puppy training, positive reinforcement, and respecting their boundaries and needs. Big dogs are my favorite I absolutely love spoiling them with pets and treats! I work from home full-time and live full-time in Detroit, so it is super easy for me to come to check in on your pets anytime. I can take them for a quick walk or spend a couple of hours keeping them company while I work. My work is calm and consistent that I can easily add things to my schedule to accommodate your pet's needs. In their home, I prioritize meeting their needs and respecting their boundaries. If they are shy or skittish, I will make sure to not get too close to them or move too quickly; if they're energetic and outgoing, I love playing with them and keeping them occupied so they're happy and well-behaved. For dog walks, I prefer to bring enough treats to give positive reinforcement and create a strong foundation for them to trust and feel comfortable with me. With cats, I usually set up and sit somewhere to let them get used to me and my smell so they can acclimate to me at their pace as well.
