About: I have been pet sitting for neighbors and family friends over the summer for years now. I love pets of all sizes and breeds and I’ll treat them like my own. I am home for the summer looking for a way to make money for school and what better way than being surrounded by the cutest fur babies! I have morning and midday availability throughout the week, but I am available on Sunday mornings or Mondays. I work nights for a prospect league baseball team while I’m home but aside from that my top priority will be your companions! I have two sweet pups of my own that I take for walks, feed, and cuddle with. I am willing to do lots of services and will keep them entertained.

About: I have such a caring heart for dogs that i am in the process of making it my career!! I love all animals but dogs are absolutely no exception! When I was younger I wanted to be a dog mom of 6 huskies! I am more than capable of taking care of your furry family. I am currently searching for a part-time job in animal care that way I have time to complete my career diploma that certifies me as a veterinary assistant! On my schedule I currently have all the time in the world to take care of your fur babies! However, when I do get a job. I prefer to work mornings or mid-shifts which is perfect for feeding your puppies twice a day and staying with them overnight if needed! Caring for pets in my clients home means taking them for walks or playing with them outside. Making sure their area is clean and their toys are cleaned up before I leave, and picking up after them when they do their business outside! Growing up with animals, I am confident in my ability to stop a dog fight or keep them from happening at all. Making sure that if needed, dogs are separated when feeding and that the home stays as safe a hoomanly possible!

About: I would love to take care of your fur babies! I have always grown up around animals and always took in sick animals in need of care. Our house was never a stranger to any animal, so I have a lot of experience on animal needs and animal body language! My Fiancé and I have a cat named Marty and a dog named Pumpkin! Pumpkin is a 100lb puppy, so you can be absolutely sure I can walk your large fur babies with no problem! I have also grown up with a lot of dogs under 30lbs, so walking smaller dogs is no issue either. I carry with me poop baggies, treats, and a portable water bowl on dog walks. They will be well taken care of and made sure they can enjoy their walk without being bored or thirsty! I hope to meet you and your fur babies soon! I would love to take them on a walk or just provide general care to them, and I am sure they will appreciate it too! I am available all through the week and work weekends. I can take your baby(s) on a walk any time needed. I would love to spend more time getting out into nature and let your baby do the same! I plan to walk your dogs at a park or somewhere dog friendly and safe! If there is a certain place they love to walk above all the rest, I can take them there too!
