Molly took wonderful care of my two kitties, Jackson, and Jackie while we were away! She played with my outgoing cat Jackson,and even got photos of my sweet little scaredy-cat, Jackie, hiding under the tub. I felt reassured that my little ones were in good hands. I’ve already booked her again for our next trip! Thank you, Molly!🐈‍⬛❤️

About: I grow up with animals since I born. As a trainer, my close circle always trusts me to take care their pets. I am an influencer (400K followers, you can check how legit and trustworthy I am, cuz I am partnering with worldwide companies & showing my peaceful daily life), so I am creating my own schedule. Animals are my true passion & they all are my babies to me! I love them all so I choose to be a professional pet sitter. I have extensive experience with animals. For their separation anxiety I prefer to watch them in their own environment. Since I was a teenager, I was helping street dogs & cats to found homes. I took classes, and I learned how to take care animals. I learned about proper diet, housing, and medical care for variety of animals. I do have lot of experience with other animals as well as dogs & cats. I am super familiar with bunnies, turtles, chickens, cows, goats, sheeps, ducks, birds especially since I am a kid, I spent my holidays at my father’s farms. Your pets will stay happily entertained to have the best Pawsome VIP Vacation! We will have so much fun together with your dearies! I want to make sure you will be so happy and at peace leaving your pup with me; with their new best friend! I welcome meet & greets at parks, but they are not required. I can do long walks, plays, and every other needings for our dearest animals! I guarantee it will be a Dog Gone GOOD Time! I am home and at parks all of the time with All My Dearie Guest Paws and I love it! This is my full time job, and my day centers around their care, safety, health, entertainment, and much happiness in the most hygienic PawsInn! I am a full time pet sitter & that is the only way how I can see possible to do pet sitting job proper. I can fully supervise “kids” and make sure they all good and happy ;) Kindly give a bath to your most lovely puppies before giving them to me pretty please. Otherwise I need to give bath & grooming for my dearie guest paws. I will charge it. I have a fenced front yard, backyard at PawsInn, so l am supervising dearly puppies all the time, even when they are having fun at my garden. We shall do long walks, plays at the safest neighborhood parks, and fenced football fields constantly. My favorite park is next to my home, and it is our favorite because I can safely let few puppies run there leash free since this park all fenced up.

About: I provide attentive, personalized care that’s fully tailored to each animal’s unique needs. I understand that no two pets are the same, and I take the time to follow their individual routines, preferences, and requirements so they feel comfortable, safe, and at ease. I have experience caring for puppies, kittens, adult pets, and senior animals, and I’m comfortable adjusting my care style to match their age, energy level, and temperament. I also have experience with a variety of other pets, including aquatic, amphibian, and reptile species, and I’m happy to follow detailed care instructions for non traditional pets. In addition, I am experienced with animals that require extra medical care and close attention, including administering medications. I am especially experienced with insulin injections and understand how important consistency, calm handling, and reliability are when caring for pets with medical needs. My approach is always based on your pet’s personal requirements whether that’s a specific feeding routine, extra patience, playtime, or quiet companionship. I am dependable, detail oriented, and truly dedicated to providing high quality care so you can feel confident your pets are in loving, capable hands. I am available every day for animal sitting and plan my schedule carefully around the pets in my care. I do work full time, with shifts from 6:00 am to 2:30 pm, but outside of those hours I am fully dedicated to being present, attentive, and engaged with your animals. I am a very driven and reliable person, and I take animal care seriously. I believe the best pet care starts with listening to you and your pet. I work closely with each family to make sure both your needs and your animal’s needs are fully met. My goal is for your pets to feel like their parents never left home. I stick closely to your pet’s normal routine and lifestyle, whether that means a specific mealtime setup, a favorite walking route around the block or park, playtime at certain hours, quiet companionship, or extra cuddles. Every animal is unique, and I take the time to learn what makes yours feel happiest, safest, and most comfortable. From cats to dogs, kittens to seniors, I focus on consistency, patience, and genuine care so your pet feels relaxed, loved, and right at home while you’re away. Your peace of mind matters just as much as their comfort.

About: I grew up with both dogs and cats, I even had a gecko when I was younger. I have lived with and cared for pets my whole life. I grew up with a orange tabby cat, and recently lived with a Bombay and an American shorthair. I have also cat sat an Egyptian Mau and a Nebelung. My friends call me the cat whisperer because even when they say "he/she isn't keen to newcomers, the cat tends to feel comfortable with me right from the start". This is something I love seeing since cats are known to be more picky about who they chose to rub against or get close to. I have also grown up around and cared for a variety of dogs. To list a few dog breeds I have cared for: American Eskimo, Labrador, Golden Retrieves, Huskie, Malamute, German Shepard, Cavapoo, Belgian Malinois, Golden Doodle, Beagle, Wiener dog, Katahula, Mountain Cur, Boxer. My first dog was an American Eskimo , and then my family also had a couple Labs and currently have a Katahula/Mountain Cur mix. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me with the care of their pets. I have experience working with working dogs (Belgian Malinois, German Shepard) and caring for them on strict schedules as my best friend has 2 working dogs that have alternating schedules and crate times. My last roommate has a Cavapoo and since I work fully remote I spent the days caring for him, taking him on walks, feeding him dinner, I even gave him bathes though he didn't particularly enjoy them. I love to go for runs/walks and love to cuddle. I promise that if you chose me to care for your pet they will receive all the love I have to offer. I currently work from home full-time with a lot of flexibility in my work schedule, so I am able to take the pets out for walks multiple times a day if needed, and it opens me up to be more available to watch your pets. I am a highly active person so having a furry companion to play with always makes my days better. I currently share an apartment with a roommate who does not do well with Pet Dander so it is best if I care for your furry friends at your home. I will respect your wishes whether you allow pets on furniture or not. I do not mind if they are on the furniture but that is a personal preference and understand the need for consistency with animals. When caring for your pet I just ask that you provide a note of preferred do's or dont's in your home.

Jazmine was wonderful with my two corgis. One of my dogs has terrible anxiety, but Jazmine was able to really help her stay calm and get through her scared moments. She also did some training for my younger dog. She was always punctual, a very good communicator, and handled herself professionally.

About: Hello! Throughout my life, I’ve always had a dog in the family that I’ve helped care for. I love all animals but pups have a special place in my heart. Since high school, I’ve been looking after families’ furry loved ones. I love taking long walks with pups, playing catch, taking them to dog parks, and just having a fun time with them! I’m always willing to help continue any type of training you already have set up with your pet; consistency is key with animals. I have two cats and a pup of my own named Walter; he’s a sweet and calm shar pei/black lab mix. I can’t wait to meet, play, walk, and have fun with your fur babies! Thank you for checking out my profile!

Carol did a great job watching Buster. She's super reliable and really connects with dogs. Buster is a rather large dog, but Carol had no problems keeping him under control. I highly recommend Carol!

About: I’ve worked with animals almost my entire life from dogs and cats to horses, goats, and chickens. I worked teaching kids how to handle animals for many years. I have three dogs, two small elderly mutts and a 3 year old German Shepard/malinois. I’ve dog sat for family friends for up to 3 weeks at a time. I love working with animals and it’s been a passion of mine for years. I’m extremely flexible and can work with any schedule. I’m in college and do mostly online classes. I can conform to any set schedule your pets already on. My childhood dog has anxiety so I’m used to taking care of anxious, clingy, and high energy dogs. I have experience with a wide variety of cats as well. My main priority is your animal(s) comfort.
