About: I've been caring for the neighborhood pets since I was young, and have been grooming dogs in-home for about 10 years. I specialize in working with dogs who are particularly anxious or need a little extra love ❤️ With my grooming company, I am in complete control of my schedule! We can work together to find a solution that works best for you Generally I'll come in, take care of any house duties requested! Once the pet is comfortable with me then we'll spend some time playing or walking!

About: Ive had dogs since I was born, always used to playing with them and taking care of them! Got my own when I moved to the city and I genuinely just never get tired of them. I’ve volunteered at a couple different rescues and used to dog sit for all my neighbors growing up! I currently work part time over the weekends, typically night shifts thursday- sunday. I’m easily available to take care of your pup anytime monday- wednesday and usually the weekends stay pretty flexible for me! I am a dog lover so your dog will get all the attention it needs. Also a big fan of going on long walks and taking my own dog to the park so it would be super fun for me to provide the same energy with your dog!

About: I enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they are happy and are stress free while away from their owners. I have 3 dogs, 1 is a 9 week old puppy my family has just adopted. I have to constantly watch my puppy, named Walter. Sometimes I’ll have to stay with him and watch him for a few hours. He has severe anxiety so we have to constantly be with him and make sure he’s ok. I play with them, I pet them, I hold them, I fill up their dog food and water, constant potty breaks to prevent any accidents.

Valerie is the best! She walked my pup 5 days a week, for nearly 9 months. Sadly, I had to relocate to Minnesota. If I could bring her with me, I totally would! We're both going to miss her very much. Especially little Edith. I highly recommend her.

About: I’ve taken care of many different kinds of dogs since I was 8 years old! I’m comfortable taking care of dogs (and cats) that require a LOT (mine needs 4 miles a day and lot’s of attention) but also appreciative of those that just want to cuddle :) I’m currently working full-time, but I have lots of free time in the mornings and early afternoons! I’m comfortable working within your dog’s daily schedule. I am comfortable doing whatever your dog needs to have a happy, safe time while you are away. I have taken care of dogs with dog-doors, dogs in condos, etc. Whatever you need, let me know and I’ll make sure to do it (and if I can’t I will communicate that clearly)!

About: Ive been taking care of animals since I can remember. I know a good amount about their behavior and body language so I know how to approach them and care for them! even diffuse fights between animals if need be. I'd prefer to save saturdays amd Tuesdays for time with my family, but any other day of the week im free. naturally, if im staying for a long period of time im okay staying any day, even tuesday and saturday. Currently im in an apartment so its a bit different, we go out to the near you field lot to walk the dog, but when available Ive gone around blocks or to parks, if you have a specific walk route ill happily follow that! Im good with keeping the dogs active as well, id they need lots of walks or playtime that's doable!

About: Hello! I'm an experienced, patient and caring dog sitter. I've cared for dogs and cats for over twenty years, both in my home, as well as for friends and family. I've also fostered dogs and puppies, including momma's with puppies as young as two weeks, through two local dog rescues, since 2017. I also have experience with dogs with special needs! Additionally, I'm currently obtaining my dog training certification through Animal Behavior College, anticipated graduation December 2026. I work full-time through the week, as well as taking care of our dog/cat, and foster puppies. I'm currently earning my dog training certification and am excited to expand my pet-sitting/walking availability to better showcase my new skills. Currently available on weekends, but I'm able to open up afternoon/evening availability on a case by case basis. I would be caring for your pets in your home, based on your preferred methods. I'd follow your instructions to the letter, I understand and prioritize safety and security for your furry family while you're not home.

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life, with over 35 years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all kinds, including dogs, cats, bunnies, hamsters, and fish. I currently have a 6 year old furry dog baby of my own, Violet, a Basenji/Terrier mix, so I fully understand the daily needs, routines, and personalities that come with pet ownership. In addition to my own pets, I’ve regularly cared for neighbors and family members’ dogs and cats - providing feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship. I’m comfortable with different temperaments and always aim to make pets feel safe, happy, and cared for while their owners are away. I work full-time from home, which allows me the flexibility to take breaks throughout the day for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, and check-ins. This means your pet will receive consistent, reliable care without long gaps in attention. I’m available during weekdays with flexible daytime scheduling, as well as weekends. I do my best to accommodate routines so your pet’s schedule stays as normal and stress-free as possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I treat every home with respect and follow all instructions closely to ensure your pet stays in a familiar, secure environment. I’m attentive to details like feeding routines, leash safety, and making sure doors and gates are secure at all times. I also pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and comfort level, adjusting my approach to match their personality. You can expect dependable care, clear communication, and regular updates with photos so you always feel confident your pet is in good hands. :)

About: I have a 3-year-old Golden Retriever who’s basically my child, and I’ve been caring for my family’s dogs for years. I’ve also put my pup through training classes, so I know the importance of structure, patience, and lots of love! But my love for animals doesn’t stop at dogs, I’m a huge cat person too! My sister has three, and I fully embrace my role as their honorary aunt. I also have experience cat-sitting for a friend, including litter box maintenance and giving them all the love (on their terms, of course). As an LGBTQ+ friendly sitter, I strive to create a welcoming and inclusive environment for both pets and their humans. Whether your pet is a playful pup or a cuddly cat, I’m here to make sure they’re happy, comfortable, and well cared for! I am currently a GA student , and in my free time will have time to walk and care for your furry friends when I am not at school. Putting trust into others for your fur babies is HARD, when it comes to my dog I know it can be scary. However , I will treat your baby as my own :), and I’m a frantic pet parent myself. I have taken it upon myself to memorize everything my dog isn’t suppose to eat, and pay closely attention to any off/odd behaviors during our everyday routine.

About: Caring for animals has always come naturally to me. Pet care is at my core. I have experience caring for dogs and cats with different energy levels and needs, from playful puppies to calm senior pets. I’m patient, attentive, and mindful of each pet’s routine, comfort, and safety. Whether it’s walks, feedings, playtime, or quiet companionship, I make sure every pet feels loved and secure while you’re away. Your pet’s well-being is always my top priority. On days I’m booked to watch your fur baby, that is my ultimate top priority! I will change my schedule to be there for him/her. I have a fenced in yard, and a friendly dog to keep your fur baby company. I also have three cats. I can easily create your dog if needed. I’m fully capable of giving any medication required. When I’m watching your fur baby, I will be available the entire time. Right there, with them.

About: After traveling thousands of miles and leaving my home country, I also had to leave my little pet in the care of the most important person in my life, my mom. My dog has always been my greatest emotional support, and being apart from him inspired me to stay connected to the love, energy, and purity that pets bring into our lives. I want to care for your pets as if they were my own, giving them all the affection, attention, and respect they deserve. I am currently dedicating myself full-time to pet care. This allows me to be 100% available to take care of your pets throughout the week. For now, I’m available 24/7 and fully committed to giving them the attention and care they need. I prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness while in your home. I ensure they’re in a familiar environment, maintaining their routine to reduce any stress. During walks, I always use secure leashes, stay alert to surroundings, and avoid potential hazards. I respect your home, following any specific guidelines you provide, and ensure your pet receives the love, attention, and care they deserve. My goal is to create a trustworthy and safe experience for both you and your furry friend!
