About: Hi, I’m Kimberly! I was born an animal lover, and I’ve spent my life surrounded by all kinds of pets—from puppies and parrots to ponies and hedgehogs! Over the years, I’ve worked as a vet tech, kennel tech, dog breeder, handler, trainer and breed judge. I’ve also raised a family alongside a full house of animals, young and old, healthy and in need of extra care. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do—it’s who I am. I’ve helped nurse many pets back to health with patience, time, and love. I believe every animal deserves gentle, attentive care—especially when their humans are away. Let me be your pet’s loving caregiver and companion while you’re gone. I’ll treat them like family! ⸻ Why I love pet sitting I’ve loved animals my whole life! Pet sitting allows me to do what I love most—care for animals—while giving peace of mind to other pet parents. ⸻ Can I administer medication? Yes! I worked as a veterinary technician for 5 years and have experience with oral medications, injections, wouand care. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide consistent, attentive care throughout the day. Whether your pet needs early morning walks, midday playtime, or evening snuggles, I’m available to accommodate your routine. I’ll work with you to make sure your pet stays happy, comfortable, and on schedule while you’re away. There truly is no place like home, especially when it comes to our beloved pets. I wholeheartedly believe that animals find their greatest joy and sense of security within the warmth and familiarity of their own surroundings. That’s why I provide gentle, trustworthy in-home care designed to maintain your pet’s routine and minimize any stress they may feel. Whether it’s a nutritious meal, a refreshing walk, administering medication, or simply sharing some cuddle time, I promise to care for your pet with all the love and tenderness as if they were my own, right in the comfort of their cherished home.

About: Growing up I had a high energy Saint Bernard and I also work with horses! These have taught me how to be assertive but also gentle with all animals! I am a senior in college, and my classes are only Tuesday/Thursdays. The other 5 days a week I love to spend making new animal friends! When dropping in to hang out with your pet their water will always be refilled, food/treats/meds given on time, and will make sure that they get all the rubs and scratches. My first priority is their comfort!

About: I have had cats since I was a kid, walked my friends’ dogs in the neighborhood and just love being outside in their company walking and playing. I am currently working from home and have plenty of time during the day to walk your pet friend. I love to be outside in any weather and will take nice long walks and play. My family member has developed bad allergies so I cannot have my own pets. I love dogs and cats a lot and will enjoy their company.

About: I’ve had dogs since I was 7 years old. Growing up, I had four dogs at once as family pets. My siblings and I were responsible for taking care of them. Their breeds ranged from English Mastiff, to Great Dane, to Jack Russell Terrier. I especially helped take care of them towards the end of their lives, where care is more challenging. They have since passed, and I now have a 3 year old Lab of my own. Neighbors and family members have always relied on me to take care of their pets while away, and the dogs have always taken a liking to me. I pride myself on having experience with a wide range of breeds and sizes. I promise you’ll dog will be in good hands, as I know the unnerving feeling of leaving your pet with a stranger. As a teacher, I thankfully have the entire summer off. I’m available morning, day, night, and weekends! There is no time that is off limits. I will care for your dog however you request in your home, whether that be left out or crated. They will be walked or played with until their heart’s content!

About: I have experience with cats and dogs of different temperaments. I have been a dog groomer for over a year and have handled all kinds of pets, giving me the necessary skills to take care of your fur babies! I work part-time, so I will be able to devote myself to play time bonding and daily walks for your pups and cats. It is crucial that pets are given attention when their other family members are unable to! I have had a dog for nearly twelve years now and have devoted myself to taking care of him both physically, mentally, and emotionally! His happiness is just as important as any other family member.

About: Hi! My name is Tyler, I am a second year medical student at PCOM. Growing up my home was always filled with both dogs and cats which helped me learn how to care for both! Even after I moved out I still make an effort to visit the shelter and walk the dogs there or play with the cats. Let’s have always been apart of my life and I’d like to continue interacting with animals while helping you out! From having pets I know that things do not always go as planned. So, I want to reliable source that can be trusted to take amazing care of your pet and to always be patient with them. While I do have classes, they are not mandatory in person and only take up a small portion of the day which gives me plenty of time to take care of any pet. My school is also only a 10 minute drive away from my residence. I currently have my own 1 bedroom apartment that is spacious. I have a water and food bowl. I also provide a dog bed that I wash after every sitting.

About: I’ve grown up with Beagles and work well with all breeds and ages. I strongly believe that every dog deserves a day out on the town (or maybe just a walk around it). I’m free most weekends and various times during the day. I can do early mornings or late nights, happy to spend time with any dog throughout the day. I knock and ring the doorbell always first, just so the dogs know I’m coming (if they don’t already), walk in, greet everyone and wish the dogs a good morning, feed and water them, then let them have their breakfast and take them on a walk afterwards, always making sure to clean up after them when I first get there and definitely before I leave.

About: I have worked at the pet shop in town for almost 4 years. I have learned a lot about nutrition and am here to help with that as well. I have always loved dogs & animals. I have 3 dogs now and use to have cats growing up. I have always helped family/ friends with their pets. My cousins would call me “ the dog whisperer” I am very patient and understanding- a dog sometimes is anxious just like us humans. I think taking time out of the day and using interactive toys is so important for stimulation and keeping them busy. I usually am off on sunday & wednesday. I typically work in the morning until 3pm. Can do walks/feed them/ check in’s on the dogs after work. I have lots of grass outside & a gate inside.I would play with them outside, make sure they have a harness and a longer line ( so they are safe)& take them for walks. I can brush the dogs as well. I do prefer to stop at the clients house. I have 2 dogs at my house - it can be a lot. In the clients house I would first make sure the dog goes outside to the bathroom upon arrival. I would take them for a walk, play with the dogs outside( depending on the gate situation) Make sure they have lots of water, food & i can brush them.
