“Taylor took great care of Sophie while in her care! She had asked plenty of questions before and while dropping her off to be sure they can do things the way that we prefer as Sophie’s owners.

About: I have grown up caring for dogs of my own my entire life. I currently have a one year old dalmatian who loves to play outside in our fenced in backyard. I'm available for walks, check-ins, and overnight stays in my home. I work Monday through Friday, but work from home during the months of June, July, and August, so I can be flexible with my schedule to accommodate your pet's needs. On a typical day in the summer I spend a majority of my time outside with my dog. In my own home - My dog will be home with your dog, and they can play inside or in the backyard. My dog has access to the living room, kitchen, and fenced-in backyard through a doggie door. In your home - I will follow instructions from the owner based on your pet's likes and needs. I want to make sure all dogs are comfortable and not stressed.

About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs of every kind since I was 9. Friends, family, neighbors have relied on me to watch, bathe and feed theirs pets. I’m currently not working so I am home all day everyday. I will be starting college soon but it will be online and I can do it from home. I have a friendly dog who can keep your animals company. I also have 2 cats who like dogs and cats. I can always put the cats in their cat room if your dog doesn’t like cats.

About: I’ve raised 3 litters of puppies myself. I’ve had cats and dogs my whole entire life non stop. I’ve watched other dogs multiple time for a week at a time. I work locally and have a flexible schedule to be fitting for the customer. I’m always in town doing something so I’ll always be around the area. My dog gets plenty of attention and is very well behaved. When you see how she acts and and how loving she is you’ll understand that she is very spoiled and well treated.

About: I co-own a friendly 10-year-old Golden Retriever. I have historically boarded (in my home) 2 Basenjis for a 2 year period. I'm a daily walker with trails near my home. I have experience in medication administration and behavior modification techniques. I have a flexible schedule and would like to coordinate services with you that meet your pet's needs. I'm a seasonal organic vegetable farmer. I truly enjoy pet caretaking, it brings me more happiness. I live in the country. There are trails on my property as well as across the road from my home. I have a large crate available if needed, toys to share, and multiple dog beds. I live less than 5 miles from a vet clinic.

About: I bring comprehensive animal care experience enriched by formal education in veterinary technology, combining hands-on caregiving with a strong foundation in animal health and medical knowledge. Over several years, I have provided attentive and compassionate care to a diverse range of animals including dogs, cats, small mammals, and birds. My kid's dad and me are responsible animal lovers. Our family always has someone at home loving and caring for our dog and two cats. Our home has plenty of love to go around! I have a big backyard for our dog to play. He is fed in the morning and evening and let out as often as he wants. Our cats are indoor cats that are well taken care with a litter box cleaned twice a day.

About: I have 2 dogs of my own and have grown up around them since I was little. My two dogs are a huge part of our family. I take them on walks, talk to them like they are human and give them cuddles and love. I have 2 older boys who are dog lovers and are excited to help me in any way possible. My twin girls will be the cuddles. We are excited to welcome your fur baby to our home. I am a teacher, so I am currently at home for a lot of my day. My main job is running my 4 kids to activities at night. Our day consists of going on the trail behind our house for walks and hanging out at home, or taking trips to the pool or other fun outing. Having older boys who are home too means my house isn't lonely for pets in the summer. I will treat your pets and your house as if it were my own. I will follow instructions that are given to me. If I need clarification, I will ask. I know how hard it is to leave your pet, so I will treat them how I want dogs treated.

About: When I come to your place, your rules apply! I can maintain schedules and normal activity for dogs, cats, horses and other livestock - you name it. I've done house and farm sitting since I was in college, and can provide references! Drop in visits and dog walking, depending on location, can be before I go to work, on my lunch break and after work in the evening. I grew up on a farm, and have been around animals my entire life. I understand animal behaviors (including those pesky "testing" tricks) and do my best to have a positive interaction with every animal I meet. Please feel free to contact me with any questions you may have. Meet & greet appointments are required for every animal for safety reasons.

About: I have grown up with dogs and cats my whole life. I love how each animal has a different personality. I would treat your pet as if it were my own. I work full time during the day, Monday through Friday. I would be available in the evenings and weekends to walk, feed, let outside, and board. I have two friendly dogs who love to play. We do not have a fenced in yard but we do have a long tie out leash. I am available to come to your home in the evenings to feed, play, and let your dogs out if you are not able to.

About: I’ve grown up with all different breeds and ages of dogs. I understand that all dogs have different personalities and their own traits that make them unique. I love getting to know their different personalities!! I currently work full time as a nurse but I have many days off during the week and weekends. My schedule varies slightly from week to week. But when I’m off, I’m usually spending time at home! I have my own fur baby who gets along great with other dogs and loves to have company! I allow him free rein of the house if I have to leave for any reason. But I do have a kennel and am able to gate off areas of my house if needed! My family has a farm place about a mile away with a large fenced in area that my dog loves to run in. I also love going for walks and cuddling on the couch and watching movies with my pup.
