About: I’ve been surrounded by pets since childhood, and my love for animals has only grown stronger over the years. I’m genuinely passionate about learning more about different species and what makes each one unique. My pet care experience comes from a lifetime of caring for my own animals, helping out family and friends, and volunteering whenever I get the chance. I am a full-time student, but I’m confident in my ability to manage my schedule and dedicate consistent time each week to pet care responsibilities. At home, I care for my dog by taking him on regular walks and making time for play and connection, it’s a meaningful part of my day. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize following their established routines to ensure the pet feels safe, comfortable, and well-cared for in their familiar environment.

“We are so glad we booked Olivia to stay with our dog. We came home to a very happy pup and very neat house. We look forward to booking with her in the future and highly recommend her!”

“Alyssa stayed at our home to watch our 12 year old German Shephered and 9 month old Belgian Malinois. We were very nervous about our Belgian as it would be the first time leaving her. Alyssa came twice to meet us and go over everything prior to the watch date. She communicated with us often and sent photos. We came home to our house in order and both of our doggies well loved. Highly recommend!!!”

About: Hi my name is Averi, I have been around animals my entire life but have the most experience with dogs. I do have a charcoal lab of my own who is now a certified service animal that travels around to nursing homes and comforts those in need of puppy love. I recently got back from traveling abroad and am looking for a side job to back up my part time job! I have a 11 month lab of my own so she gets 3 meals a day, plus plenty of exercise to tire her out at night. I make sure to take her on at least one big hike a week to make sure she is getting that experience, and am always taking her into public for socialization I treat others animals as if they were my own, I take pride that I treat animals very well and am always willing to do anything to make sure the owners is as comfortable as can be. I believe that in order to make an animal act right they need to feel comfortable and safe, which requires patience and a soft hand.

About: I have taken care and loved pets almost my whole life. I have helped family, friends, and neighbors take care of their pets such as walking, feeding, and simply just showing them love. It fits in very good, I am almost always free and will make time if I need to. I will be busy for a few hours for certain days but can be there everyday on my free time. I will treat them with love and respect as they are my own. I will respect my clients house and rules at all times and do what is in the best interest of the pet and owner.

I am experienced with dogs as well as cats, and my partner and I have four cats of our own (Chester, Nell, Charlie, and Ted). I am certified in snuggling pups and providing top-notch companionship for your four-legged fur babies!

I’m eager to get outside with your canine companion and stretch our legs together! I take time to get to know my client’s pet care preferences and to develop trust—and friendship—with their pets. I typically schedule initial meet-ups to introduce myself and my services to my clients and to establish a rapport with their furry friends and to learn more about their daily routines. Establishing trust, understanding, and love with my furry friends is my foremost priority. I respect and appreciate each pet’s individual comfort and safety needs, and in doing so, I tailor my services to the individual needs of my four-legged friends.
