About: I am a 34-year-old veteran who is searching for something to do with my time since I work from home. I have one dog and two cats who of which are rescues. Nola is a beagle/bull terrier mix and has the "hunter" trait and constantly tracking down critters in the yard. Our two cats are Siamese and an unknown Mix. I believe their attitudes show they know after being rescued they get a renewed lease on life and are enjoying every second. Working from home I have full access to letting them out and go for walks often. We have a spare bedroom so they can be separated from other animals if they need a break, or feeding. Two cats and one dog. We do not have a fenced yard but will ensure they remain on leashes at all times when they are outside for everyone’s safety!
“He did a great job taking care of my two cats. Very punctual and great at communicating. Went above and beyond for me even sweeping the floor towards the end without my asking. 10/10, would book again.”
About: I have always had some sort of pet in my life and have always done extensive research to make sure that I am giving them the best care possible. I am quite good at reading body language as well. I am currently job free and am a full time pet sitter. So anytime you need me, just let me know and I can be there! I have two cats of my own and I make sure they get the best care possible. I make sure they have plenty of enrichment, and give them the best diet I can. I am also hyper vigilant when it comes to looking for potential health problems. I will do the exact same thing with your pets!
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for 8 years now. My family relies on me to take care of their dogs while they are gone out of town every month. I feed them, walk them, and play with them. I’m currently at home full time, and available to take care of your fur baby anytime of the day or night. I have two grade school boys, ages 9 and 13, who loves small and big baby kitties. I have certain areas of my home blocked off so the kitties can’t get into anything. I also have a small baby kitty who loves to play with other fur babies and keep them company.Your baby kitties will be be perfectly safe in my home.
About: I’ve loved dogs my whole life—I grew up with them until I left for college and couldn’t bring them with me. I know how to handle both puppies, with all their energy and training needs, and senior dogs who just need patience and comfort. I’m reliable, I’ll treat your dog like my own, and I’ll always keep you updated so you know they’re happy and cared for. I have a full time job but I’m a college soccer coach so I have a lot of flexibility and places I can bring the pups. I’m basically alyss free I grew up in a super clean and disciplined household where home meant everything. Because of that, I’ve always been big on keeping things neat and taking care of a space like it’s my own. When I’m in someone’s home, I make sure it stays tidy, organized, and safe while I’m also caring for their pets. I know how important it is to come back to a house that feels the same way you left it—if not better. So while the pets get plenty of love, attention, and routine, I’m also looking out for the home itself.
About: I’ve Been around Dogs for most of my life. From my dogs to my neighbors and friends dogs. I have a very strong passion for animals because of it. I’m mostly home with my pets.. So I asked my self why shouldn’t I make a job out of something I enjoy and already do. I will enjoy getting to spend time with ur fur babies. I look forwards to meeting each and everyone of you. Lmk if you have any questions regarding my services.
