Dog Sitting Amelia

About: I am … obsessed with animals. I have been taking care of pets my entire childhood and after graduating college, started raising my own! I was a nanny and dogsitter all throughout college and I have a genuine love for all animals, big and small. I am currently working a hybrid job, so my schedule is very flexible. I also live with my husband, who has been a veterinary technician since 2016. We can handle all kinds of medications, special needs, etc plus one of us is almost always home! I consider myself to be very patient and kind when dealing with others’ pets. I know how important it is to me that my fur baby is taken care of when I’m away, so I promise to treat yours just like my own. I love meeting pets of all ages and kinds, and promise to give each and every one the love they deserve!!! Between my husband and I, someone is almost always home! I wot a flexible hybrid schedule. My husband is currently in school so he’s away for a couple hours for classes a few days per week and then comes right back home. But we’re always willing and able to accommodate things outside of our schedule, just ask! If providing care in my home, I have one older dog named Teddy. We also have a dog park at my apartment complex and lots of places to walk nearby. If providing care at your home, let me know your preferences! I’m happy to walk your baby or just snuggle, whatever you want.

About: I’ve taken care of my own pets my whole life. I enjoy walking and cuddling with them. I’ve taken care of family and friends pets for the past 5 years. I currently work from home. I can take a lunch break to walk or check on your furry friend and give them full attention in evenings, mornings and weekends. I don’t plan to have pets in my own home. I have experience taking care of my own pets and can provide love and attention.

“Andrea has done an incredible job at letting our shy pup go at his own pace. We also appreciate her excellent communication with us about how each visit has been going and in arranging schedules. Darwin is more and more excited each time she visits!!”

About: I’ve had pets my entire life and have always loved caring for animals. I’ve been watching and caring for pets for friends, family, and others since I was around 12 years old. My experience includes overnight stays, daily pet sitting, dog walking, feeding, playtime, and making sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their owners are away. I also have a little pup of my own named Gus, and he’s a weenie dog! 🐶 He’s definitely my best little buddy, and having him has given me even more experience with the day-to-day care, routines, and attention that dogs need. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, cuddles, and love. I understand how important it is to have someone you trust taking care of your pets, and I’m happy to provide updates and pictures so you can feel comfortable while you’re away! Pet care fits really well into my daily schedule! I have a flexible schedule and am available for walks, drop-ins, daycare, and overnight stays. Since I have my own dog, Gus, I’m used to keeping a consistent routine and making sure pets get the care and attention they need. I’m happy to work with each owner to follow their pet’s normal schedule, including feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and lots of cuddles. Whether I’m caring for a pet in my home or in their home, I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and medications if needed. I’m also happy to send regular updates and pictures so you can know how your pet is doing while you’re away!

“Dirk was so great! So thankful he was able to come on Christmas Eve and he sent picture of everything. I would definitely recommend Dirk to take care of your babies”

About: I’ve been surrounded by pets my whole life, and caring for them is something I genuinely love. I know how important it is for pets to feel safe, happy, and loved, so I make sure every dog gets plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles. I adapt to each pet’s personality and needs, whether they’re energetic and playful or calm and snuggly. My goal is always to create a comfortable, fun, and loving environment where your pet feels right at home. You can trust that they’ll be in caring hands and treated like part of the family 🐾💛 Between me and my husband, we do both work currently Monday-Friday. I am usually home by 4:45 PM, and leave around 7:50 am, my husband is usually home no later than 3:30 pm. I care for every pet as if they were my own. In my home, dogs enjoy plenty of space and freedom on our 3.25-acre property, with partially fenced areas for safe outdoor play and exploration. Our three-bedroom home offers a calm, comfortable environment where dogs can relax and feel at home. I tailor care to each dog’s routine and preferences. Whether your dog is used to sleeping in a kennel at night or prefers to sleep outside or uncrated, I’m happy to accommodate what they’re most comfortable with. Throughout the day, dogs get lots of supervised playtime, exercise, and attention—there’s never a shortage of love or fun here. I can administer medications as directed and always follow feeding schedules and special instructions. I also provide daily photo and message updates so you can see how your pet is doing and feel confident they’re happy and well cared for. Most importantly, I truly love dogs of all kinds and make sure each one gets plenty of time, patience, and personalized care so they feel safe, comfortable, and excited during their stay.

About: I have been in the animal care business for the last 10 years. I personally have a very loved dog that I have cared for, for the last 11 years. On top of caring for my family’s pets over the last 16 years. I work full-time with several days working from home. I know how important an animals schedule is and would do everything to maintain that so the pet’s routine is not affected. My dog and kitten get everything the want and everything I think they need 🤣. Leaving your animal in the trust of me would guarantee that the things you want done for your family are completed. These can include walks, playing with certain toys, or the use of certain leashes or collars.

About: Hello, my name is Jordan. I am a pet sitter based in Mount Orab, Ohio! I have 4 cats and a little Chiweenie Puggle with my boyfriend. I often take care of strays around the neighborhood and have even taken in a few. I work to advocate for those who don't have a voice. I enjoy walking in the outdoors! Perfect for your little pup full of energy. I have always had a passion for animals since I was little, accumulating a lot of pet care experience under my belt with smaller animals over the course of a decade. I always treat every furbaby as if they are my own. I cannot wait to meet yours, they will have my full heart and attention! Always up to answer those questions and concerns, you can rely on me to be there for you and your dog. I tend to specialize in small dogs and other small animals. I have a fairly flexible schedule due to working for myself currently, making plenty of time for your pet throughout the week Monday through Sunday as well as most holidays! I care for the pets in and around my home by feeding with set schedules, cleaning up any messes created, scooping litterboxes everyday, cleaning food bowls, walking my dog multiple times throughout the day, crating my dog at night, as well as keeping them enriched and entertained!

About: I have extensive experience caring for dogs of all breeds, ages, and energy levels. From fun-filled walks and playtime to administering medications and providing attentive senior care, I tailor my approach to each dog’s unique needs. I’m also skilled in basic training and maintaining a clean, safe, and comfortable environment. My passion for keeping dogs happy and healthy ensures they feel loved and cared for while you’re away. Daily Routine:     1.    Morning Care:     •    Start the day with a morning potty break for Tootsie, followed by her breakfast. Puppies often have high energy in the morning, so I set aside 15-20 minutes for a walk or playtime to help her burn off energy.     •    This ensures she’s settled while I begin my workday.     2.    Midday Break:     •    Working from home allows me to schedule a midday potty break and a short walk. This keeps Tootsie active and gives me a mental break from work.     3.    Afternoon Engagement:     •    I incorporate short play sessions between tasks to provide Toots with mental stimulation, whether it’s a game of fetch, tug, or a puzzle toy.     •    These breaks are timed to coincide with natural pauses in my workflow, helping me stay refreshed and productive.     4.    Evening Care:     •    I dedicate time for a longer walk or play session to meet her exercise needs.     •    Dinner and another potty break follow, ensuring she’s relaxed for the evening.     5.    Winding Down:     •    We end the day with cuddle time and one last potty break before bed, maintaining her routine and comfort. Weekly Routine:     •    Training Sessions: I include short, 5-10 minute training sessions daily to reinforce good behaviors and teach new commands.     •    Socialization: On weekends, I take my dog to a park or pet-friendly area to expose her to new environments, people, and other dogs.     •    Grooming and Maintenance: Weekly brushing keeps her long coat healthy, and I check her nails and ears regularly to prevent any issues.     •    House Cleaning: I allocate time to clean her bedding, toys, and the areas where she spends time to maintain hygiene. Working from home makes it easier to integrate these tasks naturally into my day. It ensures Tootsie’s needs are met while allowing me to balance work responsibilities effectively. When caring for pets in either my own home or a client's home, I prioritize safety by ensuring a secure environment, following their specific care instructions diligently, closely monitoring their behavior, and always keeping their well-being at the forefront, including providing proper food, water, exercise, and access to designated bathroom areas, while fostering a trusting relationship through consistent routines and gentle interactions. Key aspects of pet care, depending on the service offered: Basic Needs: Feeding: Providing the correct amount of their prescribed food at scheduled times, ensuring fresh water is always available. Waste Management: Regularly cleaning litter boxes, taking dogs outside for bathroom breaks, and proper disposal of waste. Exercise: Engaging in appropriate physical activity based on the pet's breed and needs, such as walks, playtime, or interactive toys. Safety Measures: Secure Environment: Checking for potential hazards like open doors, toxic substances, and securing areas that could be dangerous for the pet. Leash Supervision: Always using a leash when walking dogs outdoors in public areas. Medication Administration: Following strict instructions for administering any prescribed medications. Trust Building: Positive Reinforcement: Using positive training techniques and rewards to build a positive relationship. Gentle Handling: Respecting the pet's boundaries and comfort level, avoiding forceful actions. Communication: Maintaining open communication with the client regarding any concerns or changes in the pet's behavior.

About: For my entire life, I have grown up with a dog in my family home. I have experienced first hand how to care for a 2 month old puppy and a 13 year old senior dog. Since the age of 16, I have also watched family friends dogs, either doing overnight stays or routinely check-ins with the dogs. As a graduate student, I have classes on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. On those days, your pup may be home for a few hours while I’m in class, but I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and potty breaks before I leave and as soon as I return. Outside of my class schedule, I have a flexible routine and spend most of my time at home, so I’ll be able to provide lots of companionship, playtime, walks, and cuddles throughout the day. My goal is to make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away! When caring for pets in your home, my goal is to keep their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I’ll follow all of your instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and any other special care your pet needs.

I’ll also treat your home with the same respect I would my own by keeping everything clean, secure, and exactly as you left it. I love cleaning and doing daily chores, so that will never be a problem for me! I’ll provide regular updates, photos, and messages so you can feel confident that your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. My priority is making sure both you and your pet have peace of mind.

About: I have over five years sitting, boarding, and walking dogs in various capacities. From very young puppies and elderly dogs who need that extra patience, to some very big boys who need extra play time; I've done it all. Couple this with extensive fostering and volunteering at shelters and I've worked with some of the best and worse scenarios which has really impacted my understanding for our wonderful friends. Your doggo will receive nothing less than being treated like a member of my family. I love dogs big and small. I have prepared my own documentation so that alongside a "meet and greet," any attention to detail will receive my full attention and understanding. I look forward to meeting you and spending time with your lil buddy. I do offer stays outside of San Marcos but most services are proximal.
