About: I’ve been caring for pets for a few years, mostly for close friends and family. Whether it’s feeding, walking, or just keeping them company while their family is away, I’ve always treated pets as my own. I often help with housesitting and babysitting as well, so I’ve learned to also juggle multiple responsibilities. I’m currently home for the summer from college, therefore, I have open availability and the flexibility to provide consistent pet care. With no current academic commitments, I am able to build my daily routine around the pets I care for! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always do my best to keep their routines as normal and comfortable as possible. I’m not afraid to ask clarifying questions about your pets to ensure I am giving them the best care. :)

About: I have a degree in animal science, also a life long animal lover. Details are important to me with animal care. I enjoy helping others. I work in education and I’m off during the summer and holidays. My afternoons are free. I am also an early riser. Weekends I am free. I have a fenced yard, a kennel if needed. Or very secure stalls in a clean and tidy barn. We have dogs but they are friendly and well behaved.

About: I have had dogs and cats all my life and now that I’m in the BEST years of that life (retired) I am able and ready to share all of my love and experience with new dogs and people! Although I can’t stay the night in your home, I CAN drop in, feed, play with, give snacks, even administer medication if needed, walk, and when it’s time for them to go to bed, make sure they are all tucked into bed. I can assure you that your fur baby will be loved and comfortable while your away- They will be treated with the love I give my own! As a retired person, I am living the dream, being a stay at home mom of fur children…let me love yours too! I am retired but my day starts with my three dogs at 5 in the morning, Everything I do revolves around them. They go out to use the bathroom then eat and come back in to sleep until around 7:30 then our actual day begins. Each Doodle goes on a mile and a half walk then my little pug, Sophia goes on her walk. Shes a senior so she only goes for as long as she can. This is a daily routine. They LOVE being outside so we spend almost all day outside on the patio playing when it’s nice…. They all love riding in the car so EVERYBODY at the bank, CVS, Dewars,Starbucks knows them by name. Where I go, they go! They have their spots in the car and they know their places. My kids are grown but I am definitely NOT an empty nester, they are my life and fulfill me 100%. For their safety with all the craziness happening in the world, as much as they love being outside, they are NEVER left outside when I am not home. They are brought inside and have been crate trained since they were 7 weeks old. It is their safe place and they love their crates. It’s where they sleep and where they eat too.

About: As someone who has owned pets, I have years of experience in caring for both cats and dogs. When I could not locate a proper groomer for my shihtzu, I learned how cut my dogs hair and clip his nails. I have open availability so I can fit morning, afternoon, and nightly check ins, baths, walks, overnight sitting, and errands. I would love to spend as much time as I can making sure that your pet is well loved and taken care of. I don’t want to break an animal’s routine so if you have your pet on a schedule/routine, diet, or regiment of some sort, I plan to stick to that.

About: Feel confident, and subtle knowing your fur babies are safe, and in good care! For over 25 years, I have been connected with pets and their owners being called upon at a moments notice to pet sit their fur babies. I immediately build a special bond and connection with animals! Some call me a dog whisperer, Due to my instant bond with even the most high energetic, scared, even aggressive dogs! Pet care of all sizes will be available at a moment notice!

For the felines, they’ll appreciate the attention they’ll receive ! Your Feline friends will enjoy playing with the fun toys I’ll bring during visits, and walks!

About: As a pet parent of eight years, I have extensive experience caring for specifically cats. However, I have experience dog sitting for my sibling—including caretaking for a two month old puppy. In general, my experience dog sitting consists of house sitting for multiple days in a row and two to three 1 hour walks per day for a single pet (much of my experience caretaking for dogs has been with high energy cattle dogs). Furthermore, I have experience pet sitting kittens. I love caring for our furry friends and would love to share my experience and passionate with the community! Currently, I am on summer break so I have plenty of time to care for your furry friend! I’m available throughout the week including the weekends. Hope to hear from you soon :-) As a pet sitter, I follow the instructions given to me by clients to a T—only pivoting if instructed by the client or in case of an emergency. In cases of an emergency, the client will be contacted immediately and their pet will be taken to an emergency veterinary if necessary or as instructed by the client. The health and wellness of the client’s pet is of the utmost importance.

About: I've had dogs of all shapes in my house growing up: german shepherds, Yorkies, pit bulls and loooots of stray cats. I currently have 2 fur babies but I wish had more. I was the go-to kid in the neighborhood to check in on pets, play with them for energy, bathe and walk them and much more. I did it for fun, but looking back I probably should have charged $5 haha. I work from home and would love to help you out by watching, bathing, or walking your fur baby. I work from home and am very flexible in my hours. I am very familiar with dogs, cats and some rodent pets. I usually watch my friends' and family's dogs and cat while they are away and have no trouble fitting in plenty of walks and play time for them I make sure to respect the home and the owners while giving all my attention and time to the pets I'm watching. I also like to ask for particular tidbits that the animal's characters benefit from. (this goes from medications and feeding habits as well as things and behaviors to stay away from) For example, my pitbull needs a lot of attention but honestly, she just likes to be in the same room as everyone and likes to be talked to in funny voices whereas my Yorkie will just walk off and find a corner to crap in if she doesn't get enough attention and you will never know. I want pet parents to feel like they can forget about their pets while they are gone, it can be more trouble than it's worth to constantly worry and fret over your fur babies with a stranger.

About: I’ve taken care of pets for the past two years and before that I had my own during childhood! I can’t wait to meet your furry friend! I have short hours at work so I have plenty of time to walk and care for pets throughout the week! I’m also an early riser! My current roommate works long hours so I am the primary caretaker of his two dogs! I feel like their both our dogs at this point.

About: I’ve cared for both dogs and cats since I was a kid whether that be family or friends. I’ve been around dogs of all sizes, cats, reptiles etc. I currently work at an animal hospital in the boarding department so I care for people's fur babies on a day to day basis. I’m a full time kennel assistant at an animal hospital. My job is to maintain the health and wellbeing of people's pets while they are away. I like to take my cat out whenever I can. I feel like it’s very important for any and every animal to have environmental stimulation.

About: I have taken care of pets for my friends and family many times over the years. I love to cuddle and play with them. I also love taking them on walks. I am looking for a job right now so I have a lot of time on my hands to take care of your pets. I’m available most days. I understand that all pets are different, so I will follow all directions specific to your pets needs. I can stay at your house with the pets or drop by for visits when needed.

“Wendi was fantastic with Zoey! She arrived at my house early to do a meet & greet with Zoey which I appreciated a lot. She sent multiple pictures on their walk and brought water for her. I will definitely be booking her again!”

“Haley was amazing with Sirius. I had a work emergency out of state and needed someone to walk Sirius during the day while the husband is at work. Luckily, Haley agreed to walk Sirius. She gave him care and attention when I was far away and sent photos during the walks. Would highly recommend Haley and definitely will book her again. Thanks so much for taking care of our pup.”

About: I have taken care of various fur babies for over 2 years, including 1 that is mine full-time. I promise above all to take care of your fur baby so that he/she feels safe and comfortable.

About: I have a passion for pets and animals in general. I grew up always having multiple pets in the home, and have pet sat for neighbors and family members. I have some experience with administering medications to pets. I have multiple pets of my own currently cats and dogs - I have a large breed mix dog close to 90lbs so for the most part I can handle a bigger pet. Currently I am out of a job and looking. I am also trying to get more animal experience because I would like to find a career working with pets/animals and I aspire to get back into school to earn a degree that will also help me with this venture. So right now I have more free time than usual. I am familiar with crate training if that is something needed for your pet. I can easily understand and will follow any instructions needed for any pet. I care greatly about the safety of your pet, so depending on what is needed I will make the adjustments to ensure yours and your pets comfortability.

About: I have had a dog of my own for 6 years now. Some more in past years. I have taken care of my friends and families pets for years now. Pets can be scared and intimidating but I know that with my love and patience with pets they do become comfortable with me. I work with kids, but my schedule is really flexible and I have breaks in between each client which gives me the opportunity to check up on pets. I have a fenced yard with two dogs. One of them is Charlie, a poodle/shih tzu, who is super sweet and the other dog is my sisters, who is a Rottweiler named Blue. Blue and Charlie are both sweet dogs. Blue is very energetic and playful and has never been aggressive as well as Charlie. Charlie mainly stays in my room in his kennel and Blue stays separated from the backyard and stays in the side area or in his kennel in the garage. All pets have always been separated but do give them opportunities to play with each other often and supervised.

About: What sets us apart is our personalized, compassionate care, especially for senior dogs. I provide activities and extra attention to ensure they feel comfortable and loved. Pet care is a heartfelt part of my daily routine, where I cherish every moment spent with each dog. I dedicate time for loving walks, playful interactions, and gentle cuddles, ensuring they feel safe and cherished. Each week, I look forward to creating a nurturing environment where every dog is treated like family. When caring for pets in my client's home, safety and trust are my top priorities. I ensure a secure environment by following the pet's routine and keeping their space clean and comfortable. I build trust by being attentive to their needs and maintaining open communication with the pet owners. Whether I’m providing companionship, walking, or feeding, I create a calm and loving atmosphere that helps pets feel at ease while their owners are away.
