We also have two very loving cats. I also help care for my sister’s two large dogs when she is at work throughout the week.

Please reach out for any help that you may need. 🐾🐾🐈🐈⬛🐕🦮🦴 Hi, my schedule is very flexible. I work part time and I’m only not available on Wednesdays and Thursdays. I also am OK with the same day job proposals. My dog is crate trained as well as being able to be free only in our large kitchen. He is supervised in the rest of the house because he is still a puppy. If we were to care for your pet in our home, your pet would be taken care of in a different area than the dog for all pets safety and comfort.
About: I’m great with dogs because I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely love being around them. I take the time to understand each dog’s personality, routines, and needs, whether that means high-energy playtime, calm walks, or just quiet companionship. I’m very observant of behavior and body language, so I can quickly tell when a dog is excited, anxious, or needs extra care. I’m reliable with feeding schedules, walks, and any special instructions, and I always prioritize safety and comfort. Most importantly, I treat every dog like my own and I make sure they feel loved, secure, and happy while their owners are away. 🐶❤️ I have 2 dachshunds of my own♥️ I am currently a Teacher, I work from 8-3:45 during the week! I am always home after those times and on the weekends! I am off in the summers and on all school breaks and holidays! I have 2 dachshunds of my own and I spend ALL my time with them when I am home, so I can do the same with your pets! I have a fenced in yard and two fur babies to keep yours company! I can crate them if needed but mine roam the kitchen while I am gone and sleep in bed with me! We are always walking and outside running around!
About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life. I was a barn manager and had 12 horses and 21 acres along with many other farm animals. I have experience taking care of all animals, giving meds, feeding, walking and just over all comfort while a pet parent is gone. I work nights so when you are gone during the day and 8 hours is too long for your pup to be alone and just need to stretch their legs I can get them out for some play time or just some potty breaks I have lots of experience with many demeanors of animals. I have a very reactive dog and a very gentle loving dog myself. I can do lots of positive reinforcement with a reactive dog on a walk.
“Tara's become our go-to over the last year and a half for taking care of our two cats, Ichigo and Freya. She's been amazing accommodating our super shy cat and keeps our bird feeders full and plants watered too. We have every intention of keeping Tara as our sitter for as long as she continues to do pet sitting.10/10”

About: I’m a caring, reliable pet caretaker with hands-on experience in dog walking, drop-in visits, and a background as a former dog park and boarding employee, where I learned how to safely handle dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. Animals have always been a huge part of my life—my own dog, Coco, is truly my best friend, and she spends plenty of time playing and walking with her “cousins,” Copper and Wesson. As a new mom and stay-at-home mom, I’m looking to earn some side income doing something I genuinely love: caring for pets as if they were my own. I’m very friendly, patient, and attentive, and I take pride in creating a safe, loving, and fun environment so both pets and their owners feel comfortable and confident. 🐾💛 I’m currently a stay-at-home mom with a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pets.

“Hannah was wonderful with our fur babies Jack and Bo. She was faithful with her meal times and helping with litter. My 88 year old FIL was there also she was respectful and sweet to him. We trusted her with one of the most precious people and our fur babies. She did a great job and we will book her again!!!”

Growing up I was always everyone’s go to pet sitter and I took it as a major compliment someone would want me to take care of their pets. I make my own work schedule so I can come and go as needed. I enjoy taking dogs for walks or playing with them to get out some energy. For me I make it a priority to mentally stimulate dogs as much as physically ! I have a fenced in yard and a secluded area to take pets for walks/play. I also have a fenced in dog park right across the street that is a little bigger than my yard I like to use as well. I like to make sure all pets stick to their usual routines when it comes to eating/potty breaks abs play time. I can accommodate dogs who might not get along with other pets in my home as well.
