About: I volunteered all throughout my high school years at the humane society and still try my best to help out and donate when I can. I have three pets, and have had many more in my life and hope to have even more when I’m given the proper opportunity and safe environment. Through my years of being a pet owner I know that animal care isn’t all that easy and isn’t for everyone. It requires hard work, patience, and lots and lots of research. I pride myself in being vigilant with care instructions as every animal is different even when it comes to the same breed. I work a part time job where I find out my schedule weekly. My job entails a 4-7 hour shift where I am completely free after. I am also a student but have yet to begin courses for the fall. I’m a lover of all animals and understand the importance of care and attention that comes with taking care of our furry friends. As a cat parent myself, I wouldn’t want anything but the best and most attentive sitter and through that experience, I have the drive and need to make sure all pets are getting the care and stimulation they need as animals. I also have two parakeets and while having a cat and birds in the house wasn’t easy at first, through training and lots of patience I successfully managed to have my own kitty befriend our two parakeets.

““Walker was very courteous and professional. Tommy seemed comfortable with her right away, even though they had just met. She was patient, attentive, and very understanding of all the instructions I provided for Tommy’s care. I felt confident leaving him in her hands and would definitely recommend her.””

About: Nine years of co-loving our GSD, Shelby. Years of assisting friends and family with their pups both young and old. I’m here and ready to help. Plenty of flexibility at this point in time. Just need notice so I can arrange my day accordingly. Would like to keep jobs in area. I prefer to care for pups at owner’s home, though I do have a fenced in yard and safe neighborhood should my home be needed.

About: Truly love animals. I can provide excellent references that will confirm that your will be loved and your home will be safe while ai am there. I I will walk your dogs in my care and play with them outside. Animals sleep with me unless the owner would rather they were caged. If medicine is required I would be diligent to administer to your pet. During the day animals sit in my lap or lay on the couch beside me. Your pet will be very loved from the beginning! I'm retired and home the majority of the time. For trips to the bank or drive thru, dogs go with me and ride shotgun safely. We will follow your dogs daily routine and adhere to any rules and regulations about your pet and your home. Some dogs would rather not go on walks and I'm good with that.

About: I have have had dogs and cats my whole life and have always loved them and wanted to work with animals since I was little. I have had pets as young as 4 weeks old to 18 years old, but I am comfortable working with all aged pets. I currently have three cats, Sadia, Mr. Orange and Oakley. I have had Sadia since she was a kitten and is almost 6 now. And the two boys I rescued within the past 6 months from being street cats and have fit so perfectly into our home. They are so sweet and friendly and great with my daughter Mila. I have always told my daughter since she was a baby to pet gently and be nice to all animals and now that she understands a lot more she loves animals just as much as I do and I am very proud of how good she does around any animal. I currently work part time with many off days in a row, so pet care would work perfectly into my daily and weekly routine with no problem. I have a fenced in backyard so we would be spending much of our time outside if the weather is nice. For inside the house I have baby gates if necessary. If I come to your home we will spend most of our time playing outside or going for walks.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs my entire life, specifically high energy breeds such as German Shepards. I have a five year old Labrador Retriever mix and a two year old Siberian Husky. I have personally trained all of my dogs on everything. My work schedule is pretty flexible which allows me to pet sit almost any day and any time. I do tend to be more available in the evenings or on weekends. I have a fully fenced yard that surrounds the property. I also have two very well trained and friendly dogs that live on the property. I have a crate, if needed. I also have gates both the front door and back door so that no animals can get out.

About: Hi, I’m Dee—and I’m absolutely DEE-lighted to meet you and your fur family! 🐾 After taking a brief break from pet sitting to attend to some important family matters, I’m thrilled to be back and available to care for your beloved pets! I invite you to check out my reviews for peace of mind—your pets truly are in loving, capable hands. A little about me.. Caring for animals has been a lifelong passion. I grew up in a household where pets were part of the family. My mom is a natural nurturer, animal lover, and rehabilitator—and it’s safe to say that love for animals runs in the family! She bred both dogs and cats, which not only helped accommodate my brother’s allergies, but also gave me the joy of growing up surrounded by puppies and kitten from day one. Over the years, we welcomed just about every kind of animal you could imagine—from a mallard duck & lovebird to a squirrel & rabbit. SO, when I say caring for animals is second nature to me…I mean it! 🐶🐱🦜🐰 These days, I share my home with three cats and one friendly, lovable dog. As a fellow pet parent, I understand how important it is to know your pets are being treated with the same love, care, and respect you'd give them yourself. When your pets are with me—they’re family. ❤️ Thank you for considering me to care for your fur family. I look forward to providing them with all the love they deserve! 🥰 Wishing you wagging tails, wet noses, and purrs of contentment! I have a lot of flexibility! I am willing to work with you, and I can pretty much accomodate any schedule. Please just let me know what you're looking for, and we will go from there! I care for every pet as if they were my own. As a devoted pet parent with no human children (yet!), my animals are truly my family—and I bring that same love, patience, and dedication to the care of yours. I understand the deep bond between pets and their people, and I’m committed to honoring that connection with compassion, attentiveness, and genuine respect for the joy and comfort they bring into our lives.

About: I love all animals and grew up with dogs, both rescues, one big one small. Although I don’t have a pet of my own now, Rover gives me the chance to give care and spend time with the furry friends that give us unconditional love. I’m currently working freelance so I have the flexibility of making my own schedule, and time to spend giving attention to your pets and whatever needs they have. I know how important it is for pets to feel safe in their own space. My first priority is to make your dog or cat feel comfortable with me.

She was incredibly sweet, patient, and understanding with my dog who has separation anxiety. She handled everything calmly, even when my dog pulled a bit, and was happy to let me walk my other dog with them. Overall a wonderful experience, and I’d happily recommend her!
