About: I will only be sitting cats, no dogs and no dog and cat mixes. I don’t have the experience necessary to properly sit your dogs. I work part time during the summer, and have other volunteering obligations besides that. My schedule is irregular, so I am fairly flexible with the times and days I am available for.

“Taylor was amazing! Lots of great info during her visits. Thanks so much, Taylor!”
About: I have had a dog in my house since I was 3yrs old. I have taken care of neighbors pets. I recently rescued a puppy from a farm and organized and found a fur-ever loving home for her. I am still in communication with her owner and get updated pictures. My dream growing up was to have as many dogs like in the movie "101 dalmations". I am able to spend the night over weekends at owners home. I am able to walk dogs during the week after 3:30pm-4:30pm. I am also able to bathe the dogs. I make sure I have plenty of time to care for the pets. I assure there is plenty of food and water out (or fed in time). I use a leash when caring for other people's pets to make sure they are safe. Spending time with the pet and giving them attention is important so they do not stress when owner is gone.
About: I’ve grown up with animals my whole life. They’ve always been a part of my daily life, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. I’ve been working in the customer care industry for the last six years. I have great communication, skills, good social skills, great communication, and I’m a genuine person. Pet care would fit into my daily life because I will make it a priority and it’s something I genuinely love to do. I usually wake up in the morning and get ready fairly early, so it will not be difficult for me to add something extra to my day since I am already up and an early riser. I’m definitely a hard worker so I will enjoy the extra downtime with your animals. Building trust with an animal is the most important thing to me so spending extra time with them letting them meet me and smell me first and just following their lead.
