About: I have grown up with various types of dogs from a small Schnauzer to a medium sized Collie, all being my best friends and how I spent my leisure time. I am the owner of a Golden Retriever and I treat him like he is my very own child. Animals are my heart and my joy; they make the world a better place and worth while. One summer I had the opportunity to bathe dogs for an animal groomer and it brought me so much joy. It is surprisingly laborious, but the labor did not faze me because the dogs were so cute and gave tons of kisses. One of my fondest memories was when I was blow drying a bashful husky, that did not like the blow dryer, and the groomer caught him giving me kisses; she could not believe he was being so affectionate and told me that he never behaves like that for anyone. It meant so much to me and made me feel really good, because dogs seem to truly know the heart and intentions of others. I have voluntarily watched friends and familes dogs when they have been in need of a sitter and I have also watched a couples dogs for pay. I have recently had three dogs, two medium sized and one large pit bull mix, stay the weekend with me and this is not including my own. I have kept my friends dogs at my house overnight and I have watched families dogs at their own house. I am finishing up my last semester towards Associates in Science and will continue on to a Vet Tech program in the fall. **I just wanted to let every one know that I have a cat, just in case your dog may not be able to be around them.**

She did a late night and short notice drop in for my boy who was barking and having anxiety and our friend was unreachable. She helped him even tho he was scared since he hadn’t meet her, but she took time and he went to her so well and calmed him down. Even tho I wasn’t there, I saw how sweet and patient she was with him on the camera and I just knew she was great with our boy and pets in general! She saved us a ton of stress! ❤️ definitely will ask her to help in the future and recommend to others.

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with them. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I make sure each pet feels cared for and loved. I pay close attention to instructions and love keeping owners updated with photos and messages!! As a teacher, I maintain a structured and dependable routine. During the school year, I’m available evenings and weekends. With summer break approaching, I’ll have a much more flexible schedule and increased availability throughout the day for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine to keep things consistent and stress-free. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. I provide a calm, secure, and clean environment where pets can feel at ease. I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding, medications, and exercise needs. I’m attentive to behavior and surroundings at all times to ensure your pet stays safe. You can expect regular updates, photos, and clear communication so you always know how your pet is doing :)

About: I grew up on a farm for most of my life so I have taken care of my share of all different kinds of animals. I’m currently a full time worker but I get off in the early afternoon so I am free during the week for the most part! I have a partial fence outside and cages if need be but normally I don’t put my animals or any others in the cage unless I absolutely have to. They will be let out more than a couple times a day and will be taken on walks if need be.

About: I've been around dogs and animals my entire life. My oldest dog has been with me since I was 17 so she's going on 13 years old. I have a 5 year old Great Dane and German Australian mix that I've had since puppies. I'm great at teaching puppies sit, lay down, and recalling. (I'm not a professional by no means) I raised an elder iguana for 6 years before she passed, I grew up with cats of all personalities, and rabbits. I'm not shy or jittery of reptiles, amphibians, spiders or other insects. I work a very flexible work from home job that allows me to step away any time that I need. I can guarantee that your pet will not be alone for more than 4 hours Mon to Fri and Saturday and Sunday I usually have open availability I'm calm, I know stress signals in dogs and cats, I will meet with your animals at their own pace. I will follow any care instructions you have left and I will clean up any found accidents (puppies and other non house broke animals or elderly) including if their crates need cleaned as long as the supplies are easily found without me needing to open cabinets (on a counter or table) I always avoid people and other animals on walks to minimize all risks. I'm very careful when opening door in case someone decides to run, and I don't mind getting during/slobbered on

About: I grew up surrounded by animals—horses, cats, and dogs—which naturally led to a lifelong love for caring for and working with them. I pursued this passion academically by earning a degree in Animal Science and professionally by spending five years in the horse industry, where I gained experience in veterinary care, herd and barn management, as well as training and showing. I’ve also worked in veterinary clinics, where I developed strong skills in safe pet handling, basic first aid, and administering medications. In addition, I have experience with puppy training and basic obedience, and I’ve completed courses to certify my own dogs as Canine Good Citizens. Now settled with my husband, who is active-duty military, I enjoy providing calm, reliable, home-style care for pets. I treat every animal as if they were my own and strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and well-loved while their families are away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m a stay-at-home mom to one baby boy who already loves his furry “brothers,” which means I’m home most of the day and able to give pets plenty of attention, supervision, and care. I live a simple, calm lifestyle and enjoy adjusting to each dog’s needs—whether that’s dedicated playtime for high-energy dogs, structured walks, or a relaxed day with couch time and snuggles. Because I’m home, pets are never left unattended for long and are treated as part of the family during their stay. I live a simple, calm lifestyle and tailor care to each dog’s individual needs. I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, training reinforcement, and medication if needed. High-energy dogs receive dedicated play and enrichment, while more laid-back pets enjoy a relaxed pace with plenty of affection and snuggle time. Because I’m home throughout the day, pets are rarely left alone and are treated like part of the family—kept safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.

About: I grew up on a hobby farm in Wisconsin and worked with many animals including cows, horses, pigs, goats, chickens, but my favorites were always the dogs. Growing up I can’t remember a time in which I haven’t been taking care of an animal wether it was walking them, feeding them, bathing them, or just giving them the love and attention they deserve. During the week I work from home. I’d be able to toilet your fur baby every 2-4 hours. We do have a yard with a fenced in portion they can play at.Your pup wouldn’t have to be alone as I have an 1 year old German Shepard for them to play with. We are very active including walks in the morning before work and after work. We are outside as much as we can be. I care for pets by waking up early in the morning for walks, make sure their tummies are full before I start work in the day. During the day since I work remote I’m able to cater to their needs and lifestyle. Every night we would end up going on walks in the neighbor hood or playing in our backyard.I know it’s hard to be away from your pets especially during vacation time. I would send picture updates of your fur babies during their stay.

About: Hi! My name is Taylor. I absolutely love dogs and I have been around dogs my entire life. I live in a 3 bedroom house with my husband and 3 children. We have a German Shepherd named Ace and a Great Dane named Samson; they are very friendly and would love to make new friends! I am a stay at home mom so I can stay at my home or travel to your home and take care of your dog. I am willing to walk your dog or do anything to make your dog's stay special! About this sitter: Hi! My name is Taylor. I am willing to travel to your home so you don't have to worry about your dog while you're away! I can walk your dog, bathe him/her, feed and water him/her, give him/her their medication, or anything else your dog needs! I absolutely love dogs and I have been around them all my life. I am available at all times and I have a very flexible schedule. I hope to have lots of fun with your dog! Why I love dog sitting I have been around dogs my entire life. I have had both large and small dogs. About my yard Our family owns 13 acres. We have a lake on our property. Our home is not close to the road and we live in the country so there’s not a lot of traffic on the road. Our yard is not fenced in but your dog will not be left alone if it is outside. I will keep your dog on a leash at all times if that is what you prefer. We just moved to this property and built our home a few months ago and putting up a fence is one of our plans in the future. My experience administering medication I, myself, have had to give medication to my dogs many times so I am very comfortable with administering medication.

About: I’ve taken care of animals ever since the age of 13. My aunt had 3 dogs so whenever I could I would watch them and stay there for a week at a time when she was out of town I fed them walked them even had to bathe them when they got into dirt. From then on my aunt gave other people my number and information and I started animal sitting all kinds of creatures ! It’s my favorite thing to do ! I’m currently working full time and I am having a Baby the end of November. I am extremely flexible and able to do any and all jobs ! So unfortunately have a German Shepard who isn’t around dogs all the time so I would have to work in my clients home. I am a very clean and neat person I never leave a mess. If I was to stay in your home I would clean all the dishes and wipe down counters and vacuum if you’d like all while talking care of your fur baby.

About: I’ve always been an advocate for animals. Their innocence, loyalty, and dedication to humans is unwavering so I try to give them love in return. I just left my 9-5 to per-sue what makes me happy and still make money. Caring for animals will give me the ability to spend more time with mine also. I have 3 dogs in my home so I would care for your pet in your home. Plus I feel that pets are more comfortable in their own homes. I have a live in dog sitter so my pets always have someone with them giving me the time to help other people with their pets.

About: I've been around pets my whole life they are the best thing ever created. I've had a 3 dogs and about probably 13 cats in total growing up. Animals are my passion. I've always taken care of my fur babies before myself. When it comes to my fur babies - they have been a part of my life for nearly a decade. Whether its my own, families, or friends - I'm always striving to offer my attention and care to making sure our four legged friends are not only taken care of but shown love. I'm blessed that I routinely get to balance my week by reducing the burden on pet parents seeing more of my furry friends! I live in a house with a fenced in back yard and a cat that is a sweetheart. I treat other people's pet like my own.

About: Attention to your animals needs, all animals are the most precious especially seniors. I’m comfortable with giving medication, highly communicative and flexible. I know basic grooming skills, most comfortable with any breed. I know how to deal with animals with separation anxiety or anxiety issues. I’m currently a stay at home dog mom & wife. I have plenty of time to care for your fur babies while you are away. I’m available anytime, just have to work around my husbands schedule! But that shouldn’t be an issue. I also have a background working in animal care, I use to work as a kennel technician and also worked under a veterinarian. Before we even book a sitting I love to meet with my clients and fur friends to see if we’re a perfect match. I always like to know what the dog/cat is like so I can build trust more easily
