“Paul and his fiancée do a great job with my Husky. My dog normally doesn’t enjoy other humans, and he loses his appetite when I travel. But Paul’s energy didn’t bring any of those concerns out.”

About: Welcome and thank you for your consideration! I encourage any questions you may have about the type of care I provide or my experience. I strive to be a dependable, reliable, trustworthy, and knowledgable caretaker. I believe in providing the level of care, respect, and attention to detail that I would personally insist upon for my own pets. Why I may be a good fit for you: ✨ Previous experience working in a veterinary clinic, including administering oral, topical, and injected medications. ✨ Experienced with "difficult" cases such as fearful, nervous, or spicy personalities, senior /disabled pet care, or homes with multiple animal species. ✨ I take on limited numbers of clients at a time to ensure that I'm able to commit undivided attention instead of rushing to beat the clock. ✨ 100% supportive of indoor and outdoor cameras -- the more the merrier! I work my primary job from home so my schedule is able to adjust pretty well to accommodate all of my client's schedules and needs. I do not over book myself to avoid issues with emergencies, other visits running over time, etc. I do start a timer at the beginning of the visits, but I do not intently stare at it or scramble to leave as soon as the time is up. I have a questionnaire that I ask all current and future clients to fill out. It asks about feeding, schedule, behavior, quirks, exercise, hiding places, trash bins, etc. to ensure that I can be prepared to handle anything that comes up. For example, I follow your instructions to the T with regards to feeding, whether it's wet, dry, raw, mixed, home cooked, or something in between.

About: Growing up I was always involved with the care and grooming of my mother's AKC American Cocker spaniel kennel and quickly fell in love with dogs. I've helped deliver 3 liters of puppies ensuring every fine detail of the process was done properly. I've assisted and led many rescue missions for strays and wildlife. I currently care for three rescue rabbits Layla, Monty, Zuko and one beagle/JackRussell mix, Copper. I'm lucky to have all my pets in my life and they truly enrich our lives for the better. I currently accepted a new job opportunity therefore my schedule is a little odd right now but message me and we can work out the details there. on a leash/harness or lead line in the yard. I do walks and or hikes- weather permitted. Allow outside with supervised fenced in playtime with toys

About: I’ve have over six years of pet and house sitting experience. As a pet owner myself, I understand and provide the attention, responsibility, and kindness need to take care of animals. I have experience with working with animals who have anxiety snd other behavioral concerns should that be a need. I have flexibility in my schedule as I am a local college student. I am currently a part time employee but have plenty of time to attain to the needs or your pets! I am available for boarding weekends and weekdays as well as any other service you may need! I care for my pets with the utmost love, comfort, and kindness, in which I will also do with your four-legged friend! No matter the service, you pets will be in the great hands!

About: Animals have been my life since before I could walk! I've cared for all sorts of animals in all life stages, and I've worked in pet retail, pet care, and more recently in beginner vet care! I do best with older dogs but I can handle puppies and seniors, and I can administer medications from pills to insulin injections! I have my own pets, so what's the harm in caring for a few more? Given proper advance notice, I will fit your furry friends into my schedule and make sure they get the best care possible! Going away and leaving your best friends behind can be scary and nerve-wracking! I prefer visiting your home when caring for your pets, as it's an environment your animal has already established as a safe place! As a fellow pet parent, I'm happy to say that I'm very much a helicopter pet-sitter. If I notice anything slightly off I will never hesitate to let you know! It's always better to be safe than sorry. I will use my experience in the pet care and vet field to make sure your loved one is safe and happy while you're away!

About: Hello, My Name is Krista R. I am a Mom of 4 and Full time student working on a nursing Degree. I have 2 dogs, 2 cats, 3 turtle, and some fish. I have experience with Large breeds to small breeds. I am very flexible with times as I am a stay at home mom/student. I have always been an animal lover from horses cow and pigs to rabbits dogs and cats! If my husband would let me I would probably run an animal rescue in my house. Just looking for a way to contribute to our family needs to make extra income. I currently am I stay at home mom and student. I do not have classes until fall 3 days a week however my class times allow me to care for animals before, in between and after classes I have two cats and two dogs in my home. I request the dogs be crate trained as my dogs are and will sleep in their crates at night. I also have leashes and a big neighborhood to go for long walks if staying with me. If I come to your homes I am very cautious and will leash the dog in the house before even going to the door. I always check the outside before opening doors incase other animals are near. If you have a fenced in yard I always stand outside with the animal to keep an eye on them.

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life from small pets to large dogs and caring for them has always been second nature to me. I grew up helping friends and neighbors with their pets, which gave me a solid foundation in handling dogs of all sizes and personalities. Now, I have a 1.5 year old Lab named Knox who’s full of energy and love. He keeps me active, patience’s, and always on my toes! I also have a 9 year old cat named Levi, who brings a calm, loving balance to our home. Because of them, I understand how important it is to trust someone who will treat your pet like family Whether your dog needs a long walk, some playtime, or just a calm presence while you’re away, I’m here to help. I’m reliable, communicative, and will always make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and cared for as if they were mine. Let me know what your pet needs. I’m happy to accommodate special routines or preferences! I’m a full-time nursing student with plenty of free time during the day, so I’m great for helping out while you’re at work. I know how important it is for pets to get attention and exercise in the middle of those long days. I’m happy to provide walks, playtime, or just some company to keep your animals happy and relaxed on your busy days. I have empathy for those who having to leave their animals so safety is a top priority for me when pet sitting. I will always use a leash when on walks and at home if there is no fenced in yard available. Also would like to know if the pet has any special instructions and their likes/ dislikes.

About: I've taken care of dogs of every kind since my high school days. I love caring for and building relationships with dogs because they are truly like your best friend when they get to know and love you. Currently I work from home and for the most part make my own schedule every day. I am looking to build loving relationships with every pet that I care for so every owner can confidently put their trust in me to bring their furry friends back to me anytime they need me to take care of them. Me and my husband love dogs! We have a doggy park inside of our residence as well as a lovely community of people who walk their dogs everyday I’m sure your pet will meet some friends as we go out for walks and play at the park. Please let me know if you have any special food or any other request that you need me to accommodate to ensure that your furry baby is okay so I can be prepared as much as I can to welcome them into our home. I make my own schedule every day so i am pretty much free Monday through Sunday each week. I will make sure I update the time slots that are booked as clients start scheduling their appointments. All small and medium-sized dogs will be more than welcomed to roam freely around my living room kitchen area and are allowed to sit and lay on the couches as well. The floors are hardwood so even if they have an accident of pooping or peeing on the floor it will be alot easier for me to clean up on the hard floors than the carpeted areas. They will be allowed to come into my bedroom or any other room as long as I am in the room supervising them. I will take them outside to potty every 2 hours timed from the time they arrive until their scheduled time of leaving. You can feel free to bring their favorite toys they love to play with but I will also be purchasing brand new toys that I'm sure your dogs/cats will love to play with.

“Jasmine is so accommodating with her schedule and our dogs just love going on their walks with her We will continue to use Jasmine for weekly walks as long as her schedule allows”
