About: I’ve taken care of animals of all kinds since I was a little kid. Animal care, or animals in general have always been a major passion of mine. Neighbors and family friends have consistently relied on me for pet care whenever they’re heading out of town or are just gone for the day!

I will always meet any and all needs that may be required for your furry or scaly friends! It is my top priority to make sure your pets are safe, happy and well taken care of whenever needed 🙂!

About: I have hands on experience caring for dogs and cats of different sizes, ages, and energy levels. I’m comfortable with high energy dogs that need long walks and playtime, as well as more relaxed pets that just want companionship and attention. My experience includes feeding routines, administering basic care, walking dogs on leash, cleaning up after pets, and making sure they feel safe, calm, and loved while their owners are away. I always pay attention to each pet’s personality and adjust my care to match their needs. I treat every pet like they’re my own keeping them on their routine as much as possible and making sure they get plenty of exercise, affection, and supervision. My goal is to give pet parents peace of mind knowing their pets are in responsible, caring hands. I’m currently working full time but i’m available all day on my days off which are Wednesday & Thursdays. Im available after 6 on weekends When caring for your pet in your home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress free as possible. I follow all instructions exactly as provided, including feeding schedules, walk times, medication, and any specific care guidelines for the pet. I make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and well supervised at all times. For dogs, I provide structured walks, potty breaks, and playtime based on their energy level and needs. For cats or other pets, I ensure they are fed on time, have clean water, a clean environment, and receive attention and interaction based on their personality. I also respect the client’s home by keeping everything clean and organized, cleaning up after pets, and making sure doors and entry points are secure when I arrive and leave. I pay attention to any changes in behavior or health and communicate immediately with the owner if anything seems off. My goal is to provide dependable care and give pet parents peace of mind knowing their pet is safe, happy, and cared for while they’re away.

About: I started raising a dog when I was 15, a Bichon Frise. Now I have two cats, one is 7 years old and the other is 5. Both cats have been raised since they were kittens. I have plenty of time to take care of pet. My son goes to summer school from 9:30-4:30,so I’m available between these time. I have a big fenced yard and multiple cat trees. I vacuum daily and keep plastic items away from them. I also cover the second floor railing in case cats jump.
About: I love dogs more than I love actual people. About 3 years ago I started working at a doggy daycare and I had the best experience. Apart from that I've had dogs since I was born. I know how to give professional baths and some types of haircuts. I used to train dogs but I haven't had much experience. I take care of my own pets all day. When I move I won't have a job so if I need to stay with your dog all day I can accommodate that I have a lot of experience handling all types of dogs including reactive. So I can change the way I work to give your dog what they need
About: We are a family of 10 and we have always had dogs, cats, rabbits and bird leaving with us . I grew up taking care of them and being there for them. I love being around pets there bring so much joy to my life . I am currently working in the morning but I will be making sure I leave the dog in good conditions and I am off on the weekend and all afternoon. Where I live it’s a nice place and the dogs will enjoy it very much. I will walk the dogs and my house is big in enough so they will be very comfortable and I will give them all the love and care in the world.
“Lexianny was amazing with Benji! She provided quick communication/updates and has a a strong understanding of both dog & owner needs. Definitely recommend her. If needed again, we will book with her again! :)”


About: I have worked at dog daycare for a long while and there we were taught professionally how to give medications. I learned behaviors that help me today in understanding your fur babies needs and wants! I have experienced new ways of learning with any dog of any size and personality. Plans for the weekend? Have fun while ensuring your pet is also having a good time, because nothing makes me happier than a smiling dog! Or maybe you travel for work during the week and need someone to stay behind, keep an eye on the fur friends, let out the dog for potty breaks keep the kitty litter fresh and your prized pets the attention they deserve. I am available for drop ins and house sitting, so I may take care of other living things🪴that don’t have paws as well. Like watering the plants, or something unique like needing me to start the car every now and then to keep the battery upbeat ready for use when you arrive. Or maybe a last minute night out? I work part time in the day and have the rest of the day to spend with your pup. What a great way to end the day and know no better way than to spend time! I am very attentive and observant so your pets will have my undivided attention. As I find them too interesting to turn away. I follow the instructions given to me about your pets feeding of medication methods detailed to ensure their diet remains the same when you get back. As well as the same medicating procedure as dogs love routine. I multitask and use resources to alert me of frequent potty breaks while house sitting (like seniors, puppies or health conditions) I personally cannot bring myself to leave the environment dirty for animals as them sitting in messiness can be a health hazard! I send multiple proofs of me doing the job asked of me (like photos or videos) to give you peace of mind while you are away. Depending on how often you’d like to be notified. Keep in mind I answer as soon as possible but can be busy actually caring for your pup before I’ll actually have time to snap a photo of us having a swell time. Sometimes both hands are needed for animals, especially larger ones! I have your dog’s best interest at heart and their safety is my first priority!

About: Lifelong dog and cat lover with over two years of professional experience in a veterinary clinic setting.

I am committed to keeping dogs happy, healthy, and active while providing owners with absolute peace of mind.

I am an early riser, allowing plenty of time every morning for thorough feeding, fresh water resets, and energetic play sessions. After my workday, my entire evening is completely dedicated to companionship, grooming, and winding down together.

Family and friends frequently look to me to care for their fur babies and I can’t wait to extend that care to your pets. I am currently on summer break from college so I am available and would love to keep your animals some company while you are away.

About: Your dog can tell you more than my profile can. That’s why we’ll have an unrushed, no-charge Meet & Greet before I care for your dog. It gives me time to learn their routine, personality, preferences and quirks—and gives your dog time to decide what they think of me, too. Dogs have different personalities, routines and needs, and I believe great care starts with paying attention to the individual in front of me. Care is more than checking off a list—it’s noticing the little things. With 40 years of pet care experience and a background working in veterinary offices and grooming, I’m comfortable caring for dogs with a wide variety of needs, including senior dogs and those with special needs. I have experience administering oral and injected medications, including insulin. I take time to learn each dog’s normal routine, personality and preferences. I pay attention to changes in appetite, behavior, mobility and anything else that may seem unusual. Your instructions matter to me, and I follow them carefully. Communication is also a big part of my care. You’ll receive updates and photos so you can see how your dog is doing and feel connected while you’re away. I want you to have peace of mind knowing your dog is receiving attentive, loving care. Most importantly, I don’t believe care should ever be one-size-fits-all. Some dogs want playtime and attention; others need patience, reassurance or simply someone willing to sit quietly until they feel comfortable. I care for the dog in front of me. Pet care is an important part of my daily routine, and I keep my schedule flexible so I can accommodate the individual needs of the pets in my care. I understand that every pet has their own routine, and I do my best to maintain their normal feeding, medication, walk and visit times. I carefully manage my schedule so each pet receives the time and attention they deserve. Whether you need regular weekly visits, occasional walks or care while you’re away, I’ll work with you to create a schedule that fits your pet’s routine. Safety and trust are extremely important to me. I follow your pet’s routine and care instructions closely while treating your home with the same respect I would want for my own. I pay attention to the details—doors and gates are secured, food and water are checked, medications are given as directed, and I keep an eye out for changes in your pet’s behavior or routine. I also consider weather, temperature and walking surfaces when deciding what is safe and appropriate for outdoor time. I believe good pet care also means good communication. I’ll keep you updated on how things are going and let you know about anything I notice. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable and cared for in their familiar environment while you’re away.
About: I’ve cared for dogs for many years, including my own, my family’s pets, and the dogs at the local animal shelter where I volunteer. My experience includes walking, bathing, feeding, and providing plenty of love and attention to make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and valued. I believe every animal has its own unique personality and traits, and those differences are what make each pet so special. I currently have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide dedicated care for your pets! Caring for animals is something I’m truly passionate about and an important part of my life. I am available most days from early mornings to early afternoons. I’m happy to accept requests and will always do my best to ensure your pets receive the love, attention, and care they deserve. I provide all of the basic care your pet needs to stay happy, healthy, and comfortable. I can bathe and blow dry your dog, and I will soon be offering basic grooming services as well. I make sure pets receive regular potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and plenty of love and attention throughout the day. If your pet has a medication schedule or specific care instructions, I will carefully follow them and ensure they receive their medication safely and on time. Above all, my main goal is to create a safe, loving, and stress-free environment where your pet feels comfortable and cared for. I will always treat your furry family members as if they were my own, making sure they are safe, happy, and healthy while you’re away.
About: Dog Care Experience I have been caring for dogs professionally for over five years, but my experience goes back even further—I started dog walking at 11, turning my passion for animals into a responsibility I take seriously. Through pet sitting and dog walking, I have worked with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I prioritize their individual needs, whether that means providing high-energy playtime, gentle walks for senior dogs, or extra patience with shy or reactive pups. My experience includes: • Daily Walks & Exercise: Ensuring dogs get the right amount of physical activity to keep them happy and healthy. • Feeding & Medication Administration: Following specific dietary needs and schedules, including giving oral medications when required. • Behavior & Training Reinforcement: Using positive reinforcement to encourage good manners and maintain consistency in training. • Comfort & Companionship: Providing plenty of affection and engagement to keep dogs relaxed and content while their owners are away. I understand that every dog has their own personality and needs, and I tailor my care to make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. Pet care is a natural part of my daily and weekly routine. Since I’ve been around animals for most of my life, I’ve developed a schedule that ensures they receive the attention and care they need. • Daily: I set aside time for feeding, walks, playtime, and any necessary medication administration. Whether it’s a morning dog walk, checking in on a pet sitting client, or spending time socializing rescue cats, I make sure every pet gets the care they deserve. • Weekly: I balance multiple pet care responsibilities, including scheduled pet sitting visits, dog walks, and volunteer work with Catapolooza. My flexible schedule allows me to accommodate both short-term and long-term care needs, ensuring that pets remain comfortable and stress-free in their environments. No matter the schedule, I prioritize reliability, consistency, and making sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved. Safety, Trust & Environment Whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, my top priorities are their safety, comfort, and well-being. • Building Trust: I take the time to understand each pet’s personality, preferences, and routine to ensure a stress-free experience. I move at their pace, especially with shy or anxious pets, and use positive reinforcement to build trust. • Safe Environment: In a client’s home, I follow their instructions closely, keeping pets on their regular schedule and ensuring their space remains secure and hazard-free. I check doors, gates, and leashes for safety, and I’m mindful of potential household dangers like toxic plants or small objects. • Comfort & Well-being: I provide plenty of exercise, playtime, and companionship to keep pets happy and engaged. Whether it’s a relaxing cuddle session with a cat, a stimulating walk for a dog, or following special feeding instructions, I prioritize their needs. • Emergency Preparedness: I stay alert for any signs of illness or distress and am prepared to follow emergency protocols if needed. I ensure I have vet contact information and know the nearest emergency clinic for each pet I care for. Above all, I treat every pet as if they were my own—providing them with the love, patience, and care they deserve.
