About: I have experience caring for dogs, cats, hamsters, and even fish! I send regular photo updates, can bathe your pets, walk them, clean your yard, and provide reliable overnight care. Your pet’s comfort and safety are my top priorities, and I treat every animal like they’re my own. Whether you need short term or long term help, I’m here to make things easier for you and your furry friends! I am currently working full-time from 3–11 PM at Providence and in the Air Force National Guard,but I can still easily accommodate morning and evening drop in visits, walks, or house sitting checks. My schedule actually aligns perfectly with typical pet routines: I handle early AM visits before my shift starts and late PM/evening ones right after I get off work. I’m very flexible on weekends and off days, and I always prioritize reliable, on time care for your pets! I care for pets in their own home where they feel most safe and comfortable. I follow all instructions carefully, keep their environment clean, and make sure they get love, play, and attention. I always respect your space and treat it like my own, ensuring your pet feels secure while you’re away.

About: Hi, my name is Nadia! I’m currently trying to save money for college! I’ve been surrounded by dogs my whole life, raising litters of puppies, caring for my own pets, and dog sitting for friends and family. I even took a veterinary science course and was on track to graduate as a vet tech, so I know how to give pets the love they deserve while keeping them safe and healthy. Whether it’s playtime, snuggles, or walks, I treat every dog like my own. Im available anytime! I can come do some walkes or pet sit for you! Just let me know. I love spending time with animals. 😊 I have a lot of experience with animals and absolutely love them. I can care for your pets at my house or at your house.

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs and cats my entire life, and caring for them has always been a natural part of my day-to-day. Because of that, I understand the different needs pets can have—whether it’s the playful energy of a puppy, the patience required with older pets, or the little quirks that make each animal unique. What sets me apart is not just my experience, but the genuine love and attention I give to every pet. I treat them like family, making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while in my hands. As a college student and athlete, I have a structured schedule that keeps me organized and disciplined. Because of this, I’m able to carve out consistent time during the day for pet walking. My mornings, afternoons, and breaks between classes and practices give me the flexibility to reliably fit walks in. Being active already fits perfectly with pet walking, and I see it as a great way to balance my routine while doing something I love. I’ve had a lot of experience caring for different types of pets. Back home in Texas, we have several outdoor dogs since we live in the country, which has given me a strong understanding of how dogs need to be cared for in different environments. I’ve owned dogs ranging from a Labrador Retriever to a Chihuahua, and that variety has taught me how to adapt to each dog’s unique needs. From differences in food and water requirements to rest and activity levels indoors versus outdoors, I’ve learned how to make sure every dog feels healthy, comfortable, and cared for.
