About: For walks: I'm very experienced at dog waking. I can handle big and small dogs. I can move at any pace on walks including running. I like to let the dog set the pace. I will typically ask owners what commands they use with their dogs so I can help keep them trained and have them heel on walks. I always avoid other dogs just in case. And on hot days I plan my walks in advance and leave water out for the dog on the route before I start the walk. For drop ins and sitting: I will comfort your dog while you are away as well as feeding them, walking them, and playing with them. I can also give medications orally, but I can't inject any medications. I'm currently a student and since all my classes are online, I will have plenty of time for your pets. I'm free every day, but Thursday and I'm not free Saturday after 6pm I will comfort your dog while you are away as well as feeding them, walking them, and playing with them. I can also give medications orally, but I can't inject any medications. I'm great about making sure the house is completely locked up and the key put back in it's place when I'm done.

Tarah was fantastic! She did 4 drop-ins a day with our 2 dogs and always sent updates and photos. Our Whippet/Husky mix can be quite a rascal, but Tarah handled her energy very calmly. Very friendly and reliable.

Melissa kept in great contact and even sent a bunch of photos showing that Elsie is doing well. I can't wait to get home to see her, but I feel comfortable having her in Melissa's care. She checked on the food and water dispensers, asked for details about keeping the litter box clean, and spent some time playing with Elsie. I will contact Melissa again to see if she will be available again soon for another visit.

Callie takes such good care of our pets! She always fits us in last minute and goes above and beyond. You can tell she really cares about making sure our pets (dog & cat) are well cared for in our absence. Even our shy kitty came to greet her.

About: I love dogs, have had my own but school and work are too demanding for full time care. In the time I have your dog rest assured they will be treated as if they were my own. I look forward to my time with them . I am available most weekdays and weekends, especially morning or day time. I think my love for dogs is my greatest skill, every time I see one I can’t help but go and give it some love. I’m up for anything from walks and play time to down town together just bonding. Beach time is one of my favorite things to do and I would love the company of your dog by my side, everything is more fun with a dog .

Melanie is the best pet sitter I have ever had! I highly recommend her. Ozzie has special medical and emotional needs and Melanie read him perfectly the first time she pet sat him. Each visit she sends great messages with important observations and lots of pictures. When we get home, Ozzie isn’t stressed and greets us with a big yawn, cat stretch and comes by for a drive by pet. Thank you Melanie! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

About: I have been caring for my 13 year old dog, Molly, for 11 years. I am also an active volunteer at the county animal shelter, working with dogs (1,000+ hours) and cats (400+ hours). I have a special place in my heart for dogs with behavioral and medical needs, and working with them at the shelter has taught me patience and skills that help to make the animals more comfortable. I also have training in puppy care, senior dog care, walking leash-sensitive dogs, and caring for injured animals. The time I get to spend with dogs is the most fun I have doing anything, and I take a lot of pride in caring for them with the appropriate level of attention and patience they need. I work remotely and have a flexible schedule, so I am available to walk and care dogs at a variety of hours. The length of walks is up to you and your dog-- I am happy to do short walks or longer outings depending on what you need! I am happy to refer you to references (animal shelter staff and volunteers) who can attest to my dog-handling skills and my ability to work with dogs from a variety of backgrounds. The safety of your pet and your home always come first, and I am very comfortable taking any steps needed to ensure that everything goes smoothly.

Sandra is the best! There are very few people I’d trust with my cat and being in my home without me there. Sandra is one of them. Kind, respectful, dependable, attentive, and. caring. Not to mention my cat adored her almost immediately. This is rare, as she hides from most people. I can’t recommend Sandra high enough.

About: I am a long term animal lover and trainer. 20 years experience with larger dog breeds. I have a flexible schedule and excellent references. Many years experience with Cats too. Will provide care and feeding, exercise and play, grooming and clean up. Can handle multiple pets. rates flexible depending on type of pets, number of pets and if overnight. I have local references upon request. I am currently working part time, so I have lots of flexible time available to spend giving your dogs, cats and farm animals the very best of care! I provide a complete variety of pet services in your home. I am overly cautious about safety in and out of the home. I take extra precautions when walking your dog near other dogs and with allowing pets outdoors where wild predators can be nearby. I am very aware of other dogs and will not allow to approach unless previously known. My availability changes. Sometimes I work remotely from home doing business office support for clients. This affects the type of pet care assignments that I may accept due to logistics and pet needs. I care for pets in your home only and take dogs on outings and employ daily frequent play and walks. Your pets get lots of attention!

Laura was a wonderful sitter for our kitty. She was extremely communicative, gave us real-time updates on her timing and the visit, and left a great summary of her visit and how our kitten was doing with a number of photos. Laura is responsible and responsive and clearly a real lover of animals. We'd recommend her to any caring pet owners!
