About: I’ve had a dog since I was 12. I was frequently in charge of feeding, grooming, walking, and training her as well as administering medications. I’m working part time on the weekends but I’m available all the time Monday through Thursday. On weekends I usually work up to 3 4 hour shifts so I still have time to take care of pets! I always keep a close eye on animals to make sure they are happy and healthy. I am always on top of cleaning any messes they may make.

About: Pet sitting was my first job ! I always watched other people’s dogs before I had dogs of my own ! I have 3 rescue dogs in my home now , who have all been through training and are great with other animals ! I work from home full-time . I barely ever have to leave the home , and if I do I have several kennels and comfort items for your dog to enjoy while I may have to step out I have a big fenced in yard ! Plenty of space for your dog to run and play with my dogs . I also have 4 large crates if the dog ever needs crated to have space away from the other dogs or simply just needs to decompress. Depending on the dogs needs , I will adjust accordingly.

About: Ever since being a young little girl, I have cared for dogs and they have a special place in my heart. I grew up with a yellow lab and took great care of her. As an adult I am the go-to pet sitter for my family and friends. I have watched small family farm taking care of goats, horses, dogs, and outdoor cats too. I have more experience with mid to older dogs than puppies, but I have also helped take care of puppies too. I am currently searching for a full-time position; therefore, I have flexibility for during the day for potty breaks or walks, evening care, and overnight stay at your house. I am unfortunately renting currently and have a no pet policy so I cannot board at this time. Your pet is to be treated like my own. I follow the owners lead but I love playtime, indoor or outdoor, walks by leash and harness, and cuddles and loves. I only give treats if that is what the household wants. I wish to keep the routine as similar to what the animal is used to.

I do my best to respect your rules and wishes regarding both your space and your pet’s care.

About: I've always had dogs around me my whole life. I grew up with a little chihuahua and he's still with me. Dogs really love me and I really do love them! I have three dogs total so I'm with dogs most of my days throughout the week. Sometimes I'll be away from home for a day or two, but not often. I care for my dogs by taking them outside, giving them their food and water daily, and treats always! We spend time playing with their toys or running in the yard!

About: I have been caring for a wide variety of animals my whole life, from cats to horses to dogs of all sizes! Large breeds are my specialty, as I have grown up around Great Danes, Saint Bernards, and Newfoundlands my entire life, and feel very comfortable handling them. I have cared for many senior and small breed dogs as well, so your pets will receive the upmost care no matter the age or size! I love working with as many unique personalities and animals as I possibly can, and will work tirelessly to make sure they receive the care they need. My schedule is often very open, especially during the summer when classes are out, so I will communicate well to work around YOUR schedule! I will do what it takes to get your pets the care they need when they need it. Safety is priority number one when it comes to caring for pets, for both me and the animals. I am sure to follow whatever instructions are given to me to the strictest degree so you don't have to worry about your pets safety while you're away. When going for walks I always maintain firm a firm hold on the leash, even with bigger dogs. I have been walking with large breeds such as Saint Bernards and Great Danes for over a decade, so I feel very comfortable remaining in control. I always carry pepper spray with me as well, just as an absolute last resort in the very rare chance that anything would happen.

About: i’ve taken care of dogs and cats and other animals from the time I was little, whether it be neighbors or friends or my own as I grew up on a farm! I have experience with aggressive and avoidant, cats and dogs. I’m currently free all day, which gives me plenty of time to give your pets lots of attention, playtime, walks, and care throughout the day. My schedule is very flexible, so I’m available for boarding, drop-ins, walks, and pet sitting during both weekdays and weekends. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I keep a clean, pet-friendly environment, closely supervise playtime, follow feeding and medication instructions carefully, and make sure every pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. currently, I live in an apartment with a fenced in dog area in the backyard, but in a few weeks will be moving into a townhouse with my very own backyard!

Kumar was absolutely wonderful with my two cats! I was especially nervous about leaving because one of them, Relic, is a formerly feral girl who’s very shy with new people. (Beezle, my other cat, is a social butterfly—toss him a treat and he’s instantly your best friend.) But Kumar handled Relic’s quirks with so much patience and care. He came by twice a day, sent me photos and videos every visit, and never hesitated to check in if he had questions. His communication was fantastic, and he totally put my mind at ease. If I need a sitter again, I’ll be crossing my fingers that Kumar’s available—he did an amazing job, and I’m so grateful!

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up with both cats and dogs and have been caring for pets my whole life. I have a 3-year-old Golden Retriever, so I understand the daily attention, exercise, patience, and love pets need to feel happy and comfortable. What sets me apart is that I truly treat every pet like family. I know how important it is to trust someone with your animal, and I always make sure they feel safe, cared for, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, or sticking to their regular routine, I’m committed to giving each pet personalized care and attention to keep them happy while their owners are away. I currently work full time during the week, but pet care fits naturally into my daily routine since I care for my own dog as well. I’m available before and after work on weekdays, and I have more flexibility and availability on weekends. I’m committed to making sure pets get the attention, care, and companionship they need while their owners are away. I currently live in a household with two dogs, and I’ve lived with both dogs and cats for most of my life. I’m very comfortable caring for pets in any way they need and always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I pay close attention to each pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and giving them plenty of love and attention while their owners are away.
