About: I have always been an animal lover. I have owned cats and dogs since I was five. I pet sit for family and friends and they are all treated like family. I work full time but am home on the weekends and in the evening time. The animals will have my full attention, love, and care. I typically like to ask the owner how their pets are at home, if they stay in a crate or if they are free to roam. I want to care for the animals the same way their owner would.
“Leah did a great job caring for Zoe. It's nice to know that my pup is so well cared for when I am away. Great communication and TLC for Zoe. I highly recommend Leah and will definitely request her service again.”
“Thank you for helping us out!”
About: I have owned/taken care of pets for as long as I can remember! From our family pets growing up to my own dog now, I have always been responsible for the dogs well-being! I currently work from home full-time and I am available throughout the day for walks, check-ins, etc. at any time! My daily schedule is very relaxed leaving me plenty of time for quality pet time! Whether in my home or a client’s home, I am always overly cautious to make sure that the pet is safe and has what they need to be happy and healthy! Having an extremely curious dog myself, I am always hyper-aware of items around that might be dangerous or harmful and will keep these things away from pets!
“Ashley did a great job taking care of Little Girl and Luna. She is very responsible and a great animal loving sitter. She petted Luna before leaving every time she came. I highly recommend Ashley as a pet sitter.”
About: I grew up in a home that always had a dog, I've had my own boy for seven years now and I've been pet sitting for friends and family for the past two! I work full time right now, but am looking for something to keep me busy after 5:30pm on weekdays and all day on the weekends! I believe in always having a dog on a collar and leash when they are not safely inside a closed yard or home. Keeping them close helps keep them safe.
“Great service and pups loved her!”
“Brittany was fantastic! She checked in ahead of time, gave us a great update on our girls, and sent some adorable pictures. I definitely recommend her.”
“Kay was so good with deuce. She was also very responsive and took lots of pictures of my deuce when she took him out. The service was well worth it and we will be booking with her again.”
About: Very structured and disciplined individual. I love showing warm and welcome while being ruthlessly effeciant in making sure your pets needs are met. I have extensive care in all types of dogs AND cats, from a few months working at a doggy daycare place, volunteering to take care of other peoples dogs, and raising 3 types of dogs, Anatolian Shepherd, German Shepherd, and a havanese. I was also raised with 8 cats in the household, most taken in off the street and treated. I am very gentle and understanding, amd have experience in senior care volunteering programs. I am working full time from sunday-wensday for 10 hours, but im fully off thursday-saterday and will dedicate that time to your pets. I will make sure to check my notifications frequently, but please try and request a day before as to give me time to prepare. I will keep the pet in field of view at all times consistantly playing or making sure they are around me, making sure to periodically (10-20) minutes checking up and giving it boops if allowed. And every 30 minutes to an hour I will take the pet outside, depending on size and excitedness. To keep myself entertained for long sessions i usually bring a book, podcast, or gaming device, but i will set alarms as to not get lost in time to make sure your pet gets its required (and of course by choice) love and attention. I am a very saftey orientated person, and any personal preferences for me taking care of your pet i will follow to the T.
