About: I had a dog since the age of 7, but I began letting my neighbors dogs out around the age of 10. I will love your dog as if they are my own. I am very flexible . I can walk your dog at a moments notice and take care of your dog in anyway needed. I have had to give a dog insulin and other medications, in which I have done with no problems. Leaving your dog in my hands would be a trustworthy decision and no doubt they will be loved while in my care. I currently do not have a dog myself, but If i need to take care of your pet in my home... I do have a fenced in back yard and a safe neighborhood for walks. Caring for your dog in your home, I plan to do whatever is needed to take care of your dog, even clean up after them if a mess is made. I currently do not have a job, trying to find a way to make this a full time job. So I can do whatever you need. I have a fenced in yard if you need me to watch your pets in my home. I don’t mind staying at your home if that’s what you prefer. I will treat it the way I would my own home, but even better.
“Spent a lot of time with the dogs, which emotionally supported them. They were clean, well fed, well walked, and happy when I came home. Jon gave them their treats, attention, toys, and they seemed very calm and happy when I came home. He asked questions and communicated often!”
About: No dog too big or small to handle. Being around animals for me is therapeutic so I am getting more in return! Skilled with cats and dogs since a young age and hope to meet your bundle of joy soon! Very flexible as I work from home and currently pet sitting for a few friends full-time. Available most all days of the week and holidays. I ensure the well-being of pets by following established routines for feeding, exercise, and play. I maintain a clean and safe environment, administer medications as needed, and provide ample affection. Communication with pet owners is key to understanding specific needs and addressing any concerns promptly.
About: I have always grown up with pets! From cats to dogs to hamsters, everything between! I currently have two cats of my own that are my entire world so I know what it feels like to trust others to take care of your fur babies :) I do work full time, but I am available early mornings, late evenings, and full availability on weekends to hangout with any and all friends! I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet and your home. I’ll stick to your pet’s schedule, keep things neat, send plenty of updates, and make sure your furry friend gets all the love and attention they deserve while you’re gone.
About: I grew up with three dogs and have always loved caring for family pets. I finally adopted my own fur baby in 2021. I have a lot of experience walking, bathing, feeding, and caring for dogs big and small. I would love the opportunity to care for your dogs! I am entering my senior year of undergrad this fall. I am currently working part-time, but I do have plenty of free time each day, especially in the morning! As a dog walker and pet sitter, I want to do everything I can to make both owner and pet comfortable. I will keep in touch with owners to make sure I am best meeting the needs of their pets.

If you're looking for a pet caregiver who treats your fur babies with the same love and devotion as you do, AJ is your guy! I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone in need of an exceptional pet caregiver.”
