“An incredibly kind and compassionate human, who has a way with my beloved Westie, Charlie. It made our day to have met her and we can't wait to see her again for a walk or drop in visits this Fall.”

About: I have been working with dogs since I was in 6th grade. I trained my childhood dog through a 4H program and we completed at the county fair each year in Obedience and Rally. Now I have a rescue who over the past 4 years we've helped work through a lot of reactivity and she now is an active participant in Rally competitions and other classes. As a teacher my summer is wide open for walks and drop in visits. Once the school year starts after school and weekends are open. I'm very comfortable with dogs of various sizes and needs. I can crate your furry family members, get them fed, out for walks etc. I'm comfortable with various walking equipment from harnesses to gentle leaders and collars.

About: I love dogs and had one for 17 years! Our good boy recently crossed the rainbow bridge and we miss him so much. I have experience with young dogs, but also with senior dogs I am currently available during the day every weekday, so whether it’s an early morning or late afternoon walk, I can be there no problem! I treat every dog like my own and give them as long as a walk as they prefer or as many pets as they desire!

About: My family has always had dogs, as well as other pets, such as birds, fish, and cats, providing me the opportunity to gain extensive experience in animal care-taking. Additionally, I have a passion for protecting and caring for all animals as I volunteer at a wildlife rehabilitation facility, and have my Master’s degree in Wildlife Ecology & Management. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, and am not scared by big dogs. My boyfriend’s family has two large dogs that I often watch and walk with ease. Additionally, I have experience in training my Yorkipoo, Teddy. I’m currently looking for employment after graduating with a masters degree, and have plenty of spare time to take care of others pet(s). I treat my animals with the upmost care and respect and shall do the same for your pet(s). Trust that any special request you have made will be followed and that the health and safety of your pet(s) will be a priority.

About: As an athlete, I understand the importance of routine and daily exercise. I have experience taking care of my families pets from a young age! I am capable of walking, feeding and playing with your pets while you are away. I have experience with high energy and senior pets. I am transitioning into a new part of my life and want to use my free time to explore my passion for animal care! I work part time and am available monday, wednesday, friday, saturday and sunday throughout the day, and tuesday and thursday after 2pm. When caring for pets in my clients home I will respect their privacy and prioritize routine for their animals. I am prompt and hardworking, and ensure all duties will be completed to the best of my ability.

About: I have been pet sitting for about 15 years, everything from quick play dates to extended stays lasting over a month. I've worked with a variety of dogs including a 13-year old 4 pound chihuahua, a vizla that required 5 or more hours of solid exercise a day, a 160 pound mastiff that thought he was a lap dog, and a very scared dalmatian/husky/german shepherd mix that needed some serious work on social interations. I've dealt with skunk attacks, bee stings, an intestinal blockage and various types of aggression. I AM NOT CURRENTLY ABLE TO STAY OVERNIGHT DURING SITTINGS. I KEPT IT IN MY PROFILE BECAUSE IT IS LESS EXPENSIVE THAN BOOKING MULTIPLE DROP-INS At the end of last year I ended up taking in 3 Doberman puppies that I had dog sat for regularly. I was able to find a home of one of them but the other two are still with me. Because of this I am not able to do extended stays that require me to be gone overnight or dogs that cannot be left alone for a few hours due to separation anxiety or medical reasons. But if your dog is friendly please consider boarding! I currently work from home with flexible hours most of the time. My schedule is very accommodating and I love being able to take advantage of nice weather or last minute requests. The yard where I am is NOT fenced in, but it is very large with several acres of wooded area in the back. For dogs that need to stay on leash there is a long tie out and plenty of walks. I never let the dogs play outside without supervision. There are two other friendly dogs on the property (in addition to my own 2) and two dogs next-door that come over to play all the time. So we have our own mini, well-mannered, well-socialized dog park.

About: I really enjoy working with dogs. I spent a lot of time training my dog to do fun tricks and he jalso loves scavenger hunts. Anything to challenge their minds is great. I’m currently searching for a new career and have plenty of time in my schedule. I would love to be able to help someone out. I like to take walks in different places to change up the routine. I also find structure or routine important prior to and returning from walks.

About: I am currently a college student and spend a lot of my time at the local SPCA. There, I walk dogs and provide older dogs with the love and attention the need and deserve. I am incredibly friendly and love a good long walk. In the past I have worked at a dog kennel that provided me with safe dog-walking technique and an understanding of many different breeds. I currently have a dog of my own and have owned another dog in the past. My oath is to take your dog(s) on a lovely walk and to keep the streets free of doodoo! I am currently a college student who is available to come home on the weekends! Over the summer I am available everyday to come and take care of your love bug! I am a strong athletic individual who loves long hikes. I am more than capable of taking your dog on a long walk, no matter the terrain, and really enjoy a challenge. Please feel free to ask me any questions:)

About: I’ve been dog and cat sitting (all different breeds) for friends and family over the past couple years, either in their home or my own. I am a figure skating and hockey coach. This requires me to be at the rink for 3-4 hours a day, generally in the afternoon/early evening. All of the office work that I do for it can be completed from home. I have a cat in my own home. If I’m ever to have dogs there, I put him downstairs with his litter box and food so that we don’t have to worry about the pets not getting along.

About: I used to dog walk a couple dogs. Then I moved onto horses. So I know I can handle the hardest canines. They’re fun to have around. I’m working but also just thinking about doing this instead. Work gets boring and this wouldn’t. I love animals and they tend to love me back. I have a giant yard. They can’t be off leash but we can have fun running in the grass. I have animals that will stay upstairs when the dog or cat is here.

About: I have no documented experience in sitting other peoples pets, but I have taken care of a cat of my own for 7 years and counting. I also help out with my partners kitty, and my aunts dog! Im always learning new skills everyday, and would love to start helping others more! I am currently volunteering on tuesdays, wednesdays and thursdays, from about 9-11am. Im also in the process of getting a job , but for the time being, and no matter what on those days I mentioned, I will have time to help out ! I care for my cat in many ways, such as feeding, changing litter box, playing, and giving affection!! I think its very important to give your cat stimulation through out the day!

About: I’ve lived with cats and dogs ever since I could remember! I’ve been pet sitting for my family and friends since I was around 14-15 years old. Some of the pets I’ve previously pet sit include senior dogs, cats of all ages, rodents, fish, and even reptiles. I am comfortable with all sorts of animals, mammals or not. I always aim to treat every single animal with the upmost respect, and as much love and care as I can possibly give them! Some of my special skill include: - giving oral medication - mixing special meals - basic/light dog training - clipping medium-tempered cats nails - caring for aquariums if necessary - basic care for reptiles and rodents - basic cat and dog grooming (brushing, spot cleaning, etc) . I’m currently working part time, so I have a good amount of time for your animals. I’m available for late night drop ins (9:30pm-11:00pm) if needed/preferred, and depending on my shift schedule I can pop in during the morning or afternoon. My goal is to cause as little stress as possible for your animals while they are in my care. I like to introduce myself and give your pets time to warm up to me and get comfortable during the service. I try to follow their usual routine during feeding, walks, etc.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was a kid. I grew up on a farm, and we always had animals to care for. Currently, I have 1 dog and 4 cats, we rescued a cat family. I am working part time so I will have plenty of opportunity to care for your dog. Anytime would be a good time for me to board your pet, drop in to house sit or take your dog for a walk. I have a large fenced yard, a large awning area, and a garage set up for shade, along with other dog friendly amenities. I have a doggy pool and dog beds for cozy comfort. Lots of room to run and play as well.

About: I have always been very good with animals. Sensing their energy allows me to handle their attitude in different situations, enabling me to care for them in the best ways possible. I love to play in their favorite ways and could brush or pet them all day. I would strive to make your pet happy:) Friends and family have relied on me to care for their pets knowing I am an avid animal lover, and I am relatively confident in saying most animals love me! Whatever makes your pet happiest is what I would enjoy doing, because bringing animals joy is my favorite things to do. My availability is flexible currently so if you’re interested shoot me a message! My every day schedule is build around caring for our animals. I wake up and the first thing I do is feed mouse (our cat). Then I bring the ducks (blueberry, broccolini, Beansprout, bubbles) out to forage. Throughout the day I play with mouse as she expresses a need for it and the ducks are allowed to forage as long as they behave. Mouse then gets dinner around 4 and that’s around when the ducks go in for the night, sometimes let out later for an evening roam before bed. I keep Metal’s (bearded dragon) food and water bowl full and he gets weekly showers, he has become less energetic with age so he has less interest in roaming outside his tank than in his youth. I talk to them like they’re children, as many pet parents do. They recognize some words I use regularly, mouse (our cat) has learned “sit” for when she’s begging for food. The ducks (blueberry, broccolini, Beansprout, bubbles) know “very good” as positive reinforcement for good behaviors. They also know wow and stretch as admiration for their regular preening and, well, stretching!
