About: I am available in the evenings and weekends so I can be with your pets at all time and tend to their needs. I have owned dogs my whole life as well as cats. I have also grown up on a farm so I am very comfortable caring for large farm animals as well. I have 2 dogs of my own who are both very dog friendly and 1 cat who sometimes thinks she's a dog but doesn't care for other cats as she was attacked by other cats before we took her in. I love all animals and breeds don't matter to me. Your fur child will be treated and cared for like they are my own! I do not have a fenced in yard but I do have long leads, go for walks and go to the dog parks frequently so your pet would get plenty of exercise.

From the minute our dog met Morgan I could tell things would go well. Morgan was very timely and sent pictures and details about each visit with our dog Leo. I was out of town and when I asked if she could do a couple of extra things to care for Leo she happily agreed. She is very trustworthy, attentive to details and caring. I look forward to having her help with Leo again in the future.

About: I am an animal lover; I have been my entire life.I have experience working with senior animals, I have experience with administering all medications; whether it’s injections, oral liquids, or pills, or topicals. I treat my dog and my cat like they’re part of my family. I want your pets to feel loved while you’re away, so I will do everything I can to ensure that happens. I will make sure they are fed exactly as you need me to, I will administer medications (if they need them), we will go on walks, and if they are allowed to sleep in a bed, they can sleep with me also. I will make sure your home is straightened up before your return as well. I have a completely open schedule; so I can stop over any time of the day that you need care. Whether it’s early morning, or late evening, I can make that work for you. I will treat your home as if it is my own home. I will clean up after your pet and myself. I can administer medications (if needed), I will feed as you need me to; and I promise to give your pet lots of love and cuddles.

About: I am currently a stay at home mom looking to make some money doing what I love. I've had 3 years experience as a vet tech before leaving to be a full time mother. I love all animals but dogs have a special place in my heart. I grew up with dogs always in the house. Growing up we always had anything from hamsters to potbellied pigs running around. I currently have two dogs, a rabbit, a cat, a snake, a turtle and a pig. I have open availability and am pretty flexible to your needs. I'm available every day of the week and on most holidays! Just let me know what works best for you. I have 2 very friendly dogs at home that love to meet other dogs but I understand there are some dogs that just like to be alone and I respect that. I can keep dogs separated if need be. I have a couple different sized crates at my home. I have a decent sized yard to play in. Alternatively I can come to your house and I will follow any instructions you might have

About: Boarding services: I have a pet friendly home with no children. We have one small doggo that loves other dogs and enjoys making new friends. I am currently working from home. I have been a dog owner for my entire life and grew up on a farm. Dog walking: I try to walk at least two miles with my doggo a day.

About: I love caring for others animals, and look forward to helping your family. I have a 13-year-old black lab and used to have a 20-year-old cat that I have helped take care of since they were born! I am used to walking animals, giving them tons of attention, feeding them and I have experience giving medication to dogs and cats, as my dog had diabetes and my cat needed a shot every once in a while. I also have experience with smaller animals like bunnies, guinea pigs and hamsters if needed. Hope to talk to you soon if you are interested! I’m currently at home working part time so I’ll have a lot of availability. My schedule varies week by week but I usually know it a couple weeks in advance! I have no problem doing home visits or staying the night with your pets at your home if that is what you are looking for. I am available both week days and weekends, and try to update my availability as often as I can! Unfortunately, I can not provide home services at the moment due to having my own pets at home, but am very experienced staying with pets at their own home!

About: I've been around animals my entire life. I have always had dogs and cats. In the country, I also had other animals: horses, goats, and ducks. I'm also currently taking care of a Leopard gecko. I feed my pets once in the morning and once at night. I walk my dog in the afternoon and let him off leash when no one is around. My cat is indoors, so I feed her, play with her, and give her space when she needs it. My dog lives in a kennel outside, but I go out to play with him by walking him to an area where he can run free and also playing with him with his toys.

About: Hello! My name is Hanna I am 25 years old I have 2 dogs named Odis and Alfi who I dedicate my whole life to so I thought hey why not get paid to do what I love which is be around furry babies :) I am looking to provide any service you might need for your dog. I have a house with a fenced backyard and know all the best doggy safe walking spots. We live across the street from 10 acres and one house down from another 20 acre property that our friends own so I bring my dogs to run around. I have grown up around dogs and worked at a dog boarding facility so I am very comfortable with handling many different personalities( I was also certified in dog CPR through my job). Both my dogs LOVE… and I mean LOVE… other dogs and are very socialized so if you need more long term care weather that be spending the whole day or even multiple days we would love to welcome your baby into our home. We have an extra room in the house if you would prefer your dog get some time to themselves I can put on some tv and let them relax unbothered. I understand not all dogs like other dogs so if you need just walks or drop in visits to your home that is great too! If your dog needs a bathe and blow dry before they get home I can do that for an extra $10(depending on size of dog). Thank you for taking the time to get to know me I am so very excited to start this journey and meet new furry angel friends! (More photos in my pets profile pages) I have two dogs of my own that i do not like to leave at home alone for more than 4 hours and I have a job but its event bartending so im only working when there are events Pets are family and they will be treated like that in my home. I have 2 baskets full of toys (my dogs both know how to share!) and I am a big believer on enrichment outside of just walks so I also have plenty of lick mats, snuffle boards, and treat puzzles. I have a big fenced in backyard with a doggy door so my dogs are out constantly they can just go in and out as they please. Any dog is welcome on my furniture including my bed but I do have an empty room if your dog needs time to themselves. I could go on talking for hours so I’m gonna stop here and just say if you have ANY questions let me know I will be sure to answer them!!

About: I am a former vet tech and founder of a thriving not for profit animal rescue in Arizona. Animal care has been my passion my entire life, and I've both fostered and petsat for over 25 years combined experience. Is your dog a Sr, more interested in cuddles and snacks? We'll be sofa bums and make sure any medications are on time. Is your dog still in training? Show me what they are working on and we'll keep working on it while you travel. Does kitty like to snuggle? Or are they less visible when strangers are around? I will go at their pace. With me, you can trust that your pets are in the hands of someone who will see them as one of their own. With a special needs cat of my own, and previously special needs dog, I am no stranger to in home medical care, litter boxes, yard poop detail, etc. Let's talk about your family's needs and how I can support them. I work remotely, with an open schedule to meet your pets needs. I am available for morning, afternoon, and evening needs seven days a week. At this time I only offer care in my clients' homes and dog walks in their general area. Depending on the needs I can perform the following: Feed, medicate, continue existing training habits, walk, clean litter boxes, brush, cuddle, and play. If you are traveling I will also water plants, bring in mail, and alternate lights on in the house to appear as someone is home if desired. My house sitting rates include this care with an overnight stay. Mid Day drops ins can be discussed for an additional cost.

About: Hi, I’m Madison! I’m a professional canine trainer, behaviorist, groomer, and full-time caretaker with 12 years of hands-on experience. I’m certified in dog behavior, temperament, body language, and care—so I understand what dogs need to feel safe, confident, and happy. I create enriching, balanced environments where every dog can thrive. From playful activities to structured downtime and personalized attention for pups with unique needs, I tailor each day to your dog’s individual personality. With me, your furry family member is treated like my own—showered with love, positive guidance, and plenty of tail-wagging fun! I give every dog my full attention, making sure they feel safe, loved, and totally at ease. Most days, you’ll find us outside soaking up the fresh air—running, playing, and exploring together. And if you ever wonder where I am, I’m probably out back with the pack having a blast. When winter hits, we move the fun into our heated, pup-friendly garage. It’s set up just for them, with turf or rubber mats for comfort and tons of toys to keep tails wagging. No matter the weather, your dog will always have a cozy, engaging, and joyful space to call their home-away-from-home. Your pup’s comfort and happiness are always my top priority! Our fully fenced-in backyard is designed with your dog’s comfort and enjoyment in mind, featuring pools, toys, water bowls, and all the essentials for a fun and enriching experience. Each dog is fed separately to maintain a peaceful and individualized routine. For dogs who prefer more privacy, we provide private rooms to ensure they have a quiet space away from the other dogs when needed. We are committed to providing a safe, comfortable, and personalized environment for every dog in our care.

About: I grew up with pets and have always wanted to become a veterinarian. I have done dog sitting since I was old enough to stay alone. I had a small grooming business in my home for about a year before moving to Michigan. I have had my own pets ever since childhood. I’m a mama of two human babies and two fur babies and I have a big heart. I’m reliable, honest and caring. I currently work from home part time and would love to spend some extra time with new furry friends. My part time schedule is a set schedule. I’m very open about my availability and if something were to come up I make sure to inform my clients. When in your home with your pets, I am very respectful of your space and your pets. I will follow feeding and walking schedules as laid out or discussed. I know how important schedules are for pets (and humans). I understand trust takes time with both humans and pets and I’m very patient and understanding. I want my clients to know that their pets are safe with me, always. I’m open to answer any questions at any time.

About: I have connected with dogs my entire life, and I wouldn't have it any other way! I enjoy the company of dogs so much that I have spent years in the pet care industry, and have been officially a "dog mom" for past nine years to my own delightful fur babies. I have worked and lived with dogs of all breeds, energy levels, and abilities and I love them all! I am currently looking for new clients who are looking for mid-day dog walker. I am a freelancer so I am able to control my over schedule. I am so grateful to be able to provide year-round dog walking services. As someone who loves nature, dogs, and the seasons, I enjoy providing regular walks to pets whose parents may not be able to fit a mid-day walk in their daily schedule. With any dog-sitting services, I also provide regular walks as well as the feeding, caretaking, and snuggling of your pets!
