Dog Sitting in Bermuda Run

About: Hi! I’m an animal lover with hands-on experience caring for a variety of pets. I’ve been a vet technician since 2018 .I currently have 1 cat, 2 dogs, 1 parrot and even chickens, so I understand how important it is to give every animal attention, patience, and loving care. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping your pets company, I’ll treat them like family while you’re away. I’m comfortable with different personalities and routines, and I always make sure pets feel safe, happy, and cared for. I’m available evening. after my shift at the vet during the week and available on weekends anytime . In drop by visit, or sitting for a few hours. I love meeting new fur friends and am comfortable caring for pets with anxiety, disabilities, or medication needs. I’m patient, dependable, and happy to give every pet the love and care they deserve.

About: I’m dedicated to keeping your pets safe and happy! My experience includes: fostering and training a 7 year old husky mix with behavioral problems and training my 3 year old dog since puppyhood with the help of a friend who is a behavioral dog trainer. I have also done overnight stays for senior dogs with specialized care needs due to PTSD. I have administered oral and eye medication to several dogs. I’m comfortable with most size breeds and would welcome a meet and greet. I’m currently studying for school, so I have plenty of time to care for your fur babies! I’m available most early afternoons to evenings Monday through Sunday. I offer overnight stays as well as an extended stays. I offer multiple walks per day and enrichment time to dogs I sit for. I’m happy to crate your dog as needed and follow any routine medication, diet and commands that would maintain their safety and happiness. I routinely update clients daily on the status of their dogs with videos and pictures.

“Natalie did an amazing job! From the moment my husband and I met her, we trusted her and felt comfortable having her take care of our furbabies. Natalie's level of communication was a ten which made it easy to be away and trust that our pets were in the best of hands.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. I love watching their personalities develop and interacting with them. I care for others fur babies like the are my own. I currently work part time and enjoy the company of animals. Whether we are playing, going for a walk or sitting down to talk with one another. Animals bring me joy and I enjoy being in their company. What is important to me is when I am caring for a pet is maintaining their routine, prioritizing safety, and communicating clearly with the owner.

“Lauren & Layla have looked after our sweet boy two times thus far - it’s been such an awesome experience. Communication and visit updates are the best, we’ve already booked our next visit and plan to work with them for the foreseeable future! Nothing better than peace of mind knowing our little guy is in good, loving care!”

About: I started taking care of the family dog a few years ago. With him, I administered medication in a positive way and helped train him. I am comfortable using a harness and a regular collar. I also helped train my senior dog on his reactivity with positive reinforcement. Currently, I am on summer break. I work as a teacher during the school year, so my availability for the next few months is open. At my apartment, my roommate’s dog I take out every 2-3 hours and I give him lots of cuddles. I keep an eye out for anything around me to make sure it is safe.

Communication is key,...you tell me what you need. I have a few available weekends between now and then. I am available the weekend of Memorial day and the holiday; check my calendar! STARTING MAY30th for all your SUMMER care needs; I am available everyday and am flexible with times! I am a school teacher and can spend this interim time getting to know you and your needs prior to to your departure for vacations, outings, work trips or get-aways! One summer weekend is my vacation; dates are July 25-27th, unable to provide services.; it is a Saturday, Sunday and a Monday. Safety: Dog-My medium sized Westie (Sallie Mae) needs: Door shut immediately behind me (both glass door and hardwood door). She uses a harness/retractable leash for walks and a collar/retractable leash for short walk around house for fresh air/bathroom break. I am mindful always of any visible items on the floor that may have been dropped and could be of hazard! I also vacuum daily to reach areas under the bed for this reason also. I check that her pet stairs to my bed are placed accordingly to get accessibility to the bed. Food and water are always checked twice daily and located in 2 different parts of the house. Cat- My cat (Baby Muffin) does not try to escape to the outdoors (yet.....), however; as a precaution I rarely open my sliding glass door open largely or for any longer than necessary. I am mindful always of any visible items on the floor that may have been dropped and could be of hazard! I also vacuum daily to reach areas under the bed for this reason also. Food and water are always checked twice daily and located in 2 different parts of the house. I am always aware of her visibility, for example, if she does not appear when I am home or prior to leaving my home; I check for any closed coset doors, cabinets, etc. for a place she may have accidentally been trapped. Trust: Dog-My Westie needs immediate attention and "lovins'" when I walk through the door. Prior to leaving her she is talked to a prepped for me leaving by telling her key statements and then leaving three varieties of chew bones in front of the refrigerator (which she waits for). Trust is provided through routine and consistency. For example, everyday a You Tube video plays a repeating jazz coffee house with ambiance. I also take the measure of saying her name with happy intentions prior to entering my home to ensure she knows it is me at the door. Trust is continuing to repeat the names of her toys daily with playtime and telling her what is happening prior to a walk, etc. or getting close to dinner, bedtime or a ride/walk. Cat-My cat gets talked to immediately when arriving home to ensure she knows just how loved she is! I call her name sweetly and she's petted. She is given cat treats in her special bowl twice a day. At my house, I try to provide trust through routine and consistency. I offer her many places to sleep by herself with her special blankets and provide toys rotated for stimulation (springs, play mice and of course a random paper bag!) Environment: Sallie Mae and Baby Muffin: I have a daily routine where they are give their special treats twice a day, keeping fresh food and water available and rotated, clean bedding for their special sleeping. Our daily routine includes that the TV is left on with YouTube coffee-house jazz ambience and I always provide calming statements of affirmation for them when leaving for the day and again when arriving home. Cat- In the morning, the litterbox is cleaned with scooper and fresh litter is added as needed. I then take that trash out so that litter is not a bad fragrance when returning home. Cat hairballs are discarded as needed and floor area cleaned. Dog- Twice a week I clean a Turf system and relace turfs with clean ones while the others are rinsed and dried. Monthly grooming for her is provided through a mobile service. However; I give Sallie Mae a bath anytime it is needed with special shampoo, tepid warm water with a shower sprayer and then immediately wash and dry her towels that were used.

About: I’ve had pets since I was a little girl. I’ve had large breed, small breed, and everything in between. I’ve had cats, fostered kittens, and have experience bottle feeding as well. love every single minute I get to spend with them. While I’m new to Rover, I bring a genuine passion for animals and a strong commitment to providing reliable, loving care. I treat every pet as if they were my own, paying close attention to their needs, routines, and comfort to make sure they feel safe and happy at all times. I’m currently employed full time so I am available on weekends and most evenings. Have a full Saturday or Sunday outing planned? Date night? I would love to take your pup for a walk to stretch their legs and keep them company! Need someone to drop in and show your cat some love and affection (if they’ll accept)? I’d be happy to! I’m available anytime on Saturdays & Sundays and Tuesdays/Thursday's after 5pm Not currently offering boarding or over night stays at this time. However, I have 3 dogs of my own who will love and play with your pets when I do offer that service.

“Jeff has been absolutely fantastic to work with. He helped us out last summer with an overnight stay and again this past weekend. He helps my senior dogs get their walks in and disburses their supplements and medications easily. He is also lovely with our two cats! Even my temperamental kitty loves to snuggle up with Jeff. I highly recommend him to care for your Furbabies!”

“Sarina has been outstanding with my puppy! She was punctual and did a great job bonding with my girl. You won’t be disappointed with Sarina!”

About: I am a second year veterinary student who has worked as a small animal veterinary assistant for about 3 years. I have experience in caring for senior pets and younger puppies/kittens as well. I grew up with dogs and cats, and now have a three-legged cat of my own. I am very reliable, thorough, and will care for your pets as my own. I’m currently home for the summer after my first year of vet school, so I have plenty of time to help you care for your fur babies! My current part-time work/volunteer schedule will allow me to have a flexible schedule to meet you and your pets’ needs. I have one dog and four cats at home who all get along very well and their comfort is the top priority. I will ensure your pets safety and comfort needs are met based on your instructions given. I am able to crate your animals, leash walk only if needed, and keep a close eye on them when going outside. If your animals need to be kept separate at any point such as meal time, I will be able to accommodate for that as well.

About: I’ve had dogs all my life. My oldest is currently 14 (Archie my beagle/wiener dog mix) and soul pup Winston (bluetick beagle/bloodhound mix who passed in 2020). I miss having dogs of my own but know that I cannot dedicate the funds to getting one of my own just yet. I’d would be so happy to spend time with your pup(s) to give them all the love/snuggles I can! I’m very active so expect lots of walks too. I do currently work full time as a graduate student researcher. My days are very variable though. If sitting your dog, I can plan my experiments around their walks/make sure I am home as long as I can be with them! Weekends are certainly preferred though as I cannot escape my classes Tuesday/Thursday/Friday I have a unit right next to my complex’s dog park, so I can let them out to run and play! I do not have crates or bowls for food/water so those would have to be provided (and food/treats too)!

“Elise was great from start to finish kept in touch perfectly & was on time! That’s huge for us we were very happy with her service and helping our little boy”

“Meredith took amazing care of my pup! She is the sweetest most caring dog sitter I have met! She is responsive, sticks to our pup’s schedule and is so loving to our pup!”

About: I am a lifelong dog enthusiast. I have taken care of my own or others dogs since I began schooling. I have worked with high energy dogs that need a large amount of exercise to taking care of my own 17 year old golden and the geriatric challenges that come with old age. I understand that every dog has a unique personality, energy level, and needs. Whether your pup is a couch potato or an adventure seeker, I'm happy to match their pace and provide the attention, exercise, and affection they deserve. Outside of my current work schedule from 8 am to 5:30 pm I am open to assisting with your pet care needs. My weekends are free all day for help. My jobs involves physical labor so however long your pet wants to play I have the energy to back it up. Whatever instructions you have I will follow them to the letter and be respectful of your home!

About: I have never not had a dog in my life. I have owned Labs, Boxers, German Shepherds, Irish Setters, Huskies, and Bulldogs. While only owning larger breeds, I do have experience with smaller dogs. I have worked as a home care professional dealing with older people and their pets, with overnight stays which involved cleaning and meal preparation. Athletics have always been an important part of my life and that carries over to playing with, walking and caring for the dogs. I would say that my biggest weakness is that I often get attached to the dogs, however I would say that is a strength as far as the dogs are concerned. I am very trustworthy and dedicated with a good work history and work ethic. I can currently working full time and also attending UNF full time. My hours vary from day to day, just because of class times, so if you have any questions or concerns, feel free to ask! I don’t offer services in my own home, so I will come to yours. Depending on the yard situation, I love to take dogs outside and run around with them or play fetch with them, just help them get their energy out. Especially if they’ve been kept inside for most of the day! I know my dogs really enjoy this, so I make sure to get that play-time in, while dogsitting. I also know that it is very important to dog owners to get the walk in, everyday. So, I always make sure to listen to those instructions and follow through with them, it’s always good to keep up the routine and the dogs always look forward to it!

About: I have worked in the Forsyth Humane Society for years and have grown up with all kinds of dogs! I have walked dogs of all sizes and training levels and can maintain them all! I am available for long walks and even runs with dogs if wanted! I will be working a hybrid internship this summer which will allow me to fit dog walks and visits into my day! I am a collegiate athlete so I am also moving around and working out. These walks would most likely be my second workout of the day and a good way to keep moving throughout the day! I am a very compassionate and loving caretaker of dogs, both at my own home and with others dogs. Throughout my experience at the Forsyth Humane Society I learned how to care for different types of dogs and can adapt quickly to what a dog needs or wants!

“Alexia has checked on my cats for 2 separate vacations I’ve been on. She does a thorough job and always updates you on how your pets are doing. My cats don’t like to show their face to strangers ? but if your’s do, she will send you pics. Would definitely use her again.”

About: I have always loved animals. I very much care about their comfort and wellbeing. I’m also always ready for a good puppy or kitty cuddle! I have a pretty open schedule usually. I just need a heads up in advance. For drop ins I usually prefer afternoons, but it’s interchangeable. I can stay with your dog for most of the day usually, if needed. I’d also be happy to feed, play with, and walk them.

About: I always grew up around animals, mainly cats and dogs. I have never come across one I would not meet with open arms to give them the care they deserve I currently work part time with a flexible schedule. I am able to travel to meet any needs you may need as well as welcome into my home. Pet care is a daily routine for me in my home so it comes very natural. I have three very friendly cats as well as a small dog (8 pounds), all are house trained and have been introduced to dogs and cats of all ages and sizes and get along perfectly. we have a large yard with a very open neighborhood to take walks. All three cats use litter boxes and our pup is house and kennel trained.
