Dog Sitting Council Bluffs

About: Animals happiness is a fundamental principle that I feel strongly about. This made growing up with and caring for all animals my favorite part of each day! I would love to give your pet you call family a break from their long days of sleeping in. My experience includes living with and pet sitting for dogs of all ages and sizes. Before becoming a pet sitter, I had only owned a cat, but have experienced the joys of all cats personality’s. I’m currently a Junior in college at UNO and have a professional level of experience scheduling around my classes and previously a demanding sport. A part time, high activity, and flexible routine is my cup of tea! My most convenient times are early afternoons and whenever works best for you. I have well rounded experience in feeding pets, cleaning their toilet activities, and taking them on walks and runs. I currently call a black cat, jack Russell terroir, Weimaraner, blonde wiener dog and chickens my family!

About: I grew up around all types of pets, from dogs to birds to lizards to cats. For as long as I've known, I've fed bearded dragons crickets and ran alongside happy pups. I absolutely love animals, and am happy and willing to work within any routines and structures pre-set for your pets. As a recent college graduate, my time is very flexible - I'm available for whenever you need me. I'm dedicated to clear and open communication about my time. Providing you and your pet with the least stressful pet care experience possible is my goal. I'd love to meet your pet, learn their routines, quirks, and learn anything that's required for their care and your peace of mind.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats around since I was very young. My first experiences caring for my own pets and their love and affection for us humans is what brings me here today. I have 3 dogs and 1 cat of my own currently. Previously my husband and I fostered first a local rescue and spent much time attending events and visiting families to help find forever homes for these animals. My animals are like my kids and I want to help care for yours when you can’t in that same way. I am available Friday, Saturday, and Sundays to take care of your dogs/cats in your home. I do have availability some weeknights and can be flexible but I do work during the day. I will provide services in your home for your pets comfort. I will provide snuggles, play, walks, feeding, and other care on an individual basis.

“Beth did an amazing job. Would recommend her to anyone. I came home to very happy pets, thanks to the care provided by Beth. Best pet sitter I have ever had.”

About: Hello! Thanks for stopping by! Here’s a little info about myself; I moved to Omaha last year from my hometown in MN. While living there I volunteered at a shelter for 5 years called “4luvofdog.” I would host dogs needing a temporary place to stay while awaiting their “furever” home. Along with that I grew up with big and small dogs as well as cats, and watch my siblings/friends dogs regularly. Watching and caring for animals is a passion and self care hobby of mine. Im excited for this opportunity and look forward to building a relationship with you and your pets! •I have a full time job Monday-Friday. I leave my place around 7:15am and am back by 5:15pm. •For check ins I’m available Monday-Friday 5:15pm-9pm and anytime on weekends. •For overnights; drop off and pick up before 7am or after 5pm on weekdays. Weekends I am available anytime. •I’m very accommodating and easy going! As long as the communication is open and honest, I won’t have a problem accommodating needs :) I live in a very cute neighborhood in downtown Benson and love to go on long walks looking at the real estate! No kids, roommates, or pets! My home does not have a fenced in yard and has stairs leading up to the unit. In others homes I’m happy to show up to walk and play with instructions on how they would like the pup to be cared for. I would love to do a meet and greet before overnights as it often makes the dog (and owner) more at ease when they come for a longer stay! I’m happy to sit for longer periods of time . When I am away at work please let me know if your dog does well free roaming or in a wire cage. I love to send picture/video updates!

About: I’ve had dogs all of my life. I grew up with small dogs under 20lbs and now have my own Blue Heeler, Ollie. My cattle dog has given me lots of experience with high-energy pups. I’ve also been fostering with the Nebraska Humane Society for the last three years. This has given me experience with many different breeds, ages, and behaviors. I’ve taken several training classes through GoDogs as well. This has helped me to prepare for many different behaviors using positive reinforcement and redirection. I currently only work 3pm-9pm Monday thru Friday and I have a partner at home while I’m working so the pets will have very minimal time alone or kennel time. I also take my other dog on many walks throughout the day and we average about two hours of dog park time a day as well and we’d be more than happy to bring your pup along if you would like. I have a small fenced yard outside my apartment or a dog park that’s a ten minute walk away for lots of outside play time. I also have a dog and cat of my own so your pet will never be lonely!

About: As a pet owner of 28 years, I know how stressful it is to leave your fur babies behind for hours on end, and my goal is to relieve you and your pet of any worries! I love taking dogs for walks for stimulation and activity. Your dog will receive my care with attention to pacing, any health concerns, and lots of fun! My schedule changes weekly, meaning I am very flexible for your needs. Generally weekdays during normal working hours is when I am the most free! As a walker, I don’t offer services from my own home but would love to keep pet parents updated with photos of my walks with your pets!

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and absolutely love caring for them I know how important they are I would do anything for my fur babies! I have over 8 years of experience helping care for dogs and understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members. I’m responsible, caring, and attentive, and I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own. I’m happy to provide walks, playtime, companionship, feeding, and plenty of love and attention while you’re away! 🐶💕 I currently work at an elementary school as a resource para with special needs children Monday-Friday 8:30am to 12:45pm. I also am a full time college student I am working for my doctorate in Occupational Therapy! Thankfully all of my classes are online so everyday after 12:45 I am available!! I have a fenced-in yard and two friendly dogs of my own—a 5-year-old Corgi and a 2-year-old Wirehaired dog. Both are fully trained, very friendly, and active. I’m comfortable caring for dogs in my home as well as in my clients’ homes. When caring for pets in their home, I will follow their normal routine, keep their environment clean and secure, make sure they have fresh food and water, provide plenty of exercise and attention, and treat their home and pets with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I’m also happy to follow any specific instructions or routines provided by the pet owner.

“Mikayla is awesome! She provided the sweetest care and great updates we have the shy cat who never appears and Mikayla was able to coax her out of her shell for pets and appearances which we appreciated so much! Mikayla also added extra appointments to provide care and it was so kind of her! We will refer Mikayla to all our friends and totally use her again!”

About: Hi! My name is Mia and I am originally from Colorado, but now work as a nurse at Children’s. I have had two or more pets in my household growing up, and am a dog lover. I have watched and taken care of dogs my whole life. Would love to meet your fur babies!! I am currently free every weekend and Monday, so I have plenty of time to watch and play with your pups! I am also free on Fridays after noon to dog sit!! I do not have any pets at home so all of my attention will go to your first baby. I love to walk over to the dog park across the street from my apartment where your dog can play, and I also have a large dog run attached to my apartment to let your dog run in off leash!!

“Michelle did a great job with brownie and Bentley!! 😊”

About: Yes, I am absolutely going to talk to your pet like they understand every word I am saying. 😂 I have loved animals forever and have years of experience caring for my own pets and those belonging to friends and family. I am happy to handle the normal stuff like food, water, walks, litter boxes and playtime, but I am also the person who will learn that your cat only drinks from the bathroom faucet and your dog refuses to poop unless you walk counterclockwise around the block. Basically: tell me how your pet likes things done, including all of their weird little routines. I will follow them, give them plenty of attention and send you pictures so you can see exactly what we are up to. I work from home and make my own schedule, so I am pretty flexible! I can usually make mornings, afternoons, or evenings work, and since my schedule changes from week to week, I keep my Rover calendar updated with when I am actually available. Your house, your pet, your rules. I want to know exactly how you normally do things so I can keep your pet’s routine as normal as possible while you are gone. Before our first visit, tell me everything: feeding instructions, medications, leash rules, escape-artist tendencies, favorite hiding spots and anything your pet absolutely should NOT do even if they try very hard to convince me otherwise. 😂 I will follow your instructions, keep doors and gates secure, never take your pet anywhere you have not approved and send you updates and photos so you are never wondering what is happening back home.

About: I worked in a doggy daycare for a summer, I currently own a dog right now, I take care of my friend dogs when his family goes out of town. Recent college grad for business. I go on walks with my dog every morning, if weather permits. Currently unemployed and have all the time at home with my dog. I have a gated community, along it is fenced, about 6 feet high, I have a lot of play space inside and walk space outside

About: I've grown up with always more than one animal in the household, and loving them is second nature. When my family and friends need someone to help take care of the pets, I am always the first option! I have taken care if lots of cats and dogs, but a few fish throughout the years too. I have experience not only with general pet care such as, feeding, walking, playing/enrichment, but also with giving medications. Some dog breeds I have worked with (or lived with) are German Shepards, Yellow Labs, and mutts that are a mix of medium/bigger dogs or small dachshund mixes. And a lot of different cat personalities! The distant and quiet ones who keep to themselves and the ones who need your attention the second you walk through your door! Either way, I have always loved them no matter what, and continue to love them still. I am about to start a part-time job that has me working either from 10-3 or 11-4. I am always willing to wake up early or stay up late because I have the late start time of the work! In my home, my cat never has a missed meal, he has clean and running water 24/7, and a handful of toys available for enrichment! A handheld laser always nearby for sudden play time is anecessity! As for my client's pets, I will always follow instructions step by step and detail by detail, no matter if feeding times includes something silly to get the fur baby to actually eat their food, I will always do it! And I am not the kind of person to just stop in, do what I need to do, and leave. I will make sure the pet is well loved and knows that I am there for them.
