About: What sets me apart is my years of experience caring for a variety of pets (cats, dogs, fish), along with a reputation for being reliable, communicative, and respectful of clients' homes. I've been pet sitting and house sitting since my early teens, and many pet owners have trusted me for repeat stays thanks to the consistent care I provide. I'm adaptable to each pet’s personality—whether they need active playtime, quiet companionship, or specialized care. I’m also experienced with administering daily medications, including pills, ointments, eye drops, and even medicated baths. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always strive to make them feel safe, loved, and at ease. I am currently a full-time student and therefore am mostly free throughout the summer. The only exception is from June 2- June 22 when I will be studying abroad. Other than my study abroad trip, I am free to provide timely care whenever needed over the summer. My dog enjoys frequent walks due to our lack of yard in the city. My dog is reactive and has had poor experiences with off-leashed dogs. I always consider my dog's safety and past experiences when walking him in public areas. One way I do this is to communicate clearly to strangers that my dog is reactive and should not be pet, I can communicate your pet's needs clearly to other pet owners/ strangers who we may encounter while on walks. At home, I make sure to spend time with my dog and not leave him alone in other rooms. Depending on your pets personality and needs, I can accommodate accordingly.

About: I grew up in a household that bred rottweilers so I know the importance of good training and leadership with puppies. I have had many dogs in my life so I am experienced in all stages of a dogs life, including special needs dogs. I currently have two husky mixes that are high energy so I know the importance of going on a good walk. I am comfortable with all sizes of dog, from teacup to giant and ALL breeds I am currently working full time but have mornings and days off free to take care of your pets. I have a set schedule so I should be able to set a routine if you'd like I will keep your dog on a leash at all times outside of the home. I will also make sure to keep an eye on them at all times while they are in my care.

About: I have taken care for pets since I was 16. Usually for friends and family. I feel ready to expand and care for others’ pets. I grew up around dogs and cats and have always known that I love them. I’m entering my senior year of college for education. I run track for semo, leaving me with lots of time to care for your pets. I don’t have a fenced yard but I live on a very safe street where many walks can be provided. I also can easily crate your pet if needed. I don’t mind to travel to a park to get some running in .

About: I am an energetic animal lover who enjoys walks just as much as the dogs do. I can care for animals and have spent time working in an animal hospital. Also I have lots of patience for training dogs and puppy’s for leashes, etc. I have early morning college meetings but free after 11am for the rest of the day. I am free every weekend and can be available multiple days in a row. I frequent the parks in town very often and know where to take playful pets who like to socialize; also I know parks and areas for pets who are shy. Pets will receive my full attention and be looked after carefully.

I can do it mainly during the day but I can also do house sitting that requires over night stays I can't have other dogs to come over to my house due to having 2 other dogs and 3 cats in the house so I can't bring them here. But I have plenty of experience caring for them in other environments

About: I grew up on a farm with a lot of animals to care for. I also have bottle fed and raised a puppy from day one. I’ve raised many kittens and older cats as well. I can administer medications if needed. I will play with them, take them for walks, love on them, whatever they need! I am a Registered Nurse so I care for pets on my days off! I work 3 nights a week so I have four available days usually! I have an 11 year old well trained black lab and a very friendly cat that loves dogs too! I will provide any care your animal needs.

About: I think it’s important to none only be trusted with your fur baby, but also know they are being taken care of exactly the way you would like. My fur babies have specific instructions with reasons why, so I know how important it is. I have experience working with feral cats and at an animal shelter and grooming salon, so I have a wide range of experience with many different animals, seeing them at their worst, and having the needed patience to remain an empathetic, gentle, loving caretaker. With my animals, and animals I have rescued, I have lots of experience medicating animals including giving shots for diabetes and I own and have trained a deaf dog. I am also a dog trainer and growing to help any dog with any behavior issues. My schedule is currently completely flexible because I am taking online classes. I’m an early riser, so I can take your dog on a walk while it’s cooler outside. I like to follow the instructions left for me as closely as possible. I think it’s important to stick to the dog’s routine in order to feel more comfortable.

About: I know the struggle is real when trying to find someone to watch your fur baby. Although, we haven't met in person, I hope to gain a bit of your trust for caring for your pet(s) with this short paragraph. Growing up, my family always had a "family" dog so since I was a young girl I have always enjoyed taking care of our pets. Now that I am an adult, I have made the choice to become a vegan because I believe all animals are worth fighting for. I spend most of my free time volunteering at a local animal shelter. My husband and I have four dogs; all of which we adopted from a local shelter. Our families and friends tease us about how much we "spoil" and "pamper" our dogs, but to us, these furry creatures, are family. With all this said, I would be honored to help take care of your furry creatures by walking them when your schedule is pressed for time, going to your home to check in while you’re away, and all together showing them the love I believe all animals deserve. While deciding on my future career, I have a bit of time on my hands. I am currently available Monday through Friday to walk and play with your fur babies. I am also available for day or night check-ins at your home. Although, I can’t stay overnight with your pet(s), I am more than happy to go to your home several times throughout the day and spend time with your furry family while you are away. I will meet your pet’s needs in whatever environment you and your pet feel most comfortable! Does your pet need company for a few hours, a quick potty break, or a long walk? I am happy to help!

About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. It is true what they say, they are a man’s best friend. I was been watching, caring, bathing, and playing with neighbor's and friend’s furry friends for about two years now. I’ll be their temporary best friend while you are gone! I’m currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to play with your furry friends. I am constantly on the go so stop ins and playdates work perfect for me and you! I am available weekdays, times are flexible, and most weekends. I live on a couple acres of land with three friendly dogs. Your furry friend will most likely smell mine when I arrive but I am excited to keep yours safe and happy! I am comfortable walking them on a leash and keeping them safe.

About: Hey there, I offer dog walking, sitting, and drop in visits for dogs and cats! For a job, I work in a doggy daycare and care for anywhere from 10-20 dogs. From German Shepards who need exercise, to Yorkies who need extra care, or even just a mix, if you've got a dog that needs an affordable care taker, I'll be able to help. Also, I do photography and love taking pictures of the dogs I sit and walk so just let me know if you want some pictures of how the day is going! I enjoy hiking, walking, and playing frisbee in my backyard. I am located in the Cape/Jackson area and would love to take your pup on a hike through the many trails in this area. I am available on weekdays and nights and also on the weekends if you give me at least 2 days heads up. I can do as many drop in visits as you would like and that includes walking them. I am only available to stay overnight on Friday and Saturday.

Kendall has dog sit for us numerous times over the course of several years. Each time, she has not only taken care of our dog doing the basics of feeding, watering and letting it outside but has went above and beyond for us! She spends time with it. She plays with it and truly shows love for our pet! She has even administered medicine to it. We have had several individuals dog set for us but none like Kendall! I highly recommend her!!

Lydia is absolutely amazing and most caring woman I know. She's fostering a very special needs dog at our shelter and not only did she open her home and heart, she's went above and beyond for him and all of our dogs here. She is always happy to spend her time with them, never rushing around. She just enjoys the dogs and they really enjoy her coming to visit. She's probably the only person I would trust to care for my pets if I were unable to. Just the perfect dedication and love every dog should be so lucky to have.
