About: I’ve helped train dogs before and I'd love to assist in sharpening their skills. I love walks or staying at home! I enjoy all dog company! I currently have control and flexibility of creating my own schedule. So I’m technically working part-time but I can work full-time if I want to. I follow their pets routines so they don’t feel as sad when their owners leave. This helps to regulate their days and overall mood and well-being.

I currently work full-time, but I’m available on my days off for drop-ins, walks, and in-home sitting. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and always make sure each pet gets personalized attention, whether that’s playtime, a calm cuddle session, or just reassuring company. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, including anxious or shy pups. I’m patient, observant, and take safety seriously. You can count on me to keep you updated with messages and photos every visit so you always know how your pet is doing. If you’re looking for someone who treats your pets like family, I’ve got you covered. I’d love to help make your time away stress-free for both you and your pet.

About: I am a Certified Veterinary Technician since 2018. I have worked in both clinics and a Humane Society over the last 8 years. I have had animals all my life including dogs, cats, fish, rats, chinchilla, horses, rabbits, turtles, mice, and the numerous injured wild animals we took in. I was in FFA and 4-H for many year and have experience with large animals and reptiles in addition to small animals. I can preform baths, toenail trims, medication administration's (included insulin injections), anal gland expressions and minor grooming upon request (compensation appreciated). I am transitioning out of clinic work due to stress and would like to continue to do the work I love with animals in a less stressful environment. I'm available to take to Veterinary appointments if needed. I am currently looking for new employment as I transitioning into working in a non-veterinary job due to burn out. I am unemployed currently and have a fairly open schedule would just need to know in advance incase of any conflicts. I have owned and cared of animals my whole life not only at home, but also as my career. I have a wide range of skills and knowledge when it comes to pet care.

About: Animals have always been the center of my world — not just pets, but family, healers, best friends, and some of life’s purest companions. Caring for animals isn’t something I simply do for work; it’s who I am at my core. Throughout my life, I’ve consistently chosen the love, loyalty, and connection of animals above everything else, and I truly believe they deserve to feel safe, adored, and understood every single day. I have hands-on experience working in doggy daycare and pet boarding environments, where I cared for dogs of all sizes, breeds, temperaments, and energy levels. From playful puppies to anxious rescues and senior dogs needing extra patience and comfort, I’ve learned how to create calm, loving environments where animals feel secure and genuinely cared for. My experience includes supervising group play, feeding routines, maintaining safe and clean spaces, and understanding canine body language and behavior. I also have a background in dog training and believe deeply in patient, loving, positive reinforcement-based guidance. I understand that every animal communicates differently, and I take pride in building trust, confidence, and strong connections with the pets I work with. Whether reinforcing routines, practicing good leash manners, or helping anxious dogs feel more comfortable, I approach every animal with calm leadership, compassion, and respect. Alongside my pet care experience, I practice Reiki energy healing and naturally bring a calming, grounded energy into the environments I care for. Animals are incredibly intuitive, and I’ve found many pets respond beautifully to gentle, peaceful energy — especially those who are anxious, sensitive, elderly, or adjusting to new surroundings. My goal is always to create a space where animals feel emotionally safe, relaxed, and genuinely loved. What sets me apart is the heart I bring into every interaction. I’m deeply attentive, nurturing, intuitive, and naturally protective over the animals in my care. Whether your pet needs high-energy playtime, gentle reassurance, structured care, or simply someone to love them like their own family would, I’m fully committed to providing that. I understand how important trust is when leaving your beloved companion with someone else, and I promise to care for your pets with the same love, patience, and devotion I give my own. Nothing makes me happier than seeing tails wag, nervous pets relax, and animals feel truly at home. For me, this isn’t just pet care — it’s a calling rooted in love, compassion, healing, and a genuine zest for life and all living beings. Pet care is naturally woven into every part of my daily life because animals have always been my priority and passion. I currently care for 6 dogs, 8 cats, and 1 goat of my own, so my days are already built around structured feeding schedules, exercise, enrichment, grooming, cleaning, affection, and individualized attention for each animal’s unique personality and needs. My routine revolves around creating calm, loving, enriching environments where animals feel safe and understood. From morning walks and outdoor time to play sessions, training reinforcement, cuddle time, and evening wind-down routines, caring for animals is truly second nature to me. Because I live such an animal-centered lifestyle, adding client pets into my routine feels seamless, intentional, and joyful rather than stressful or inconvenient. Whether caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining a safe, calm, structured, and loving environment that keeps pets comfortable and emotionally secure. I pay close attention to each animal’s routine, energy level, temperament, dietary needs, and comfort preferences so they experience as little stress as possible while their owners are away. I believe consistency, patience, and communication are key. I maintain feeding schedules, potty breaks, medication routines if needed, exercise, enrichment, and plenty of affection and supervision. I also use my background in dog behavior, training, and Reiki energy healing to help animals feel relaxed, confident, and emotionally supported. I treat every animal as if they were my own family member and strive to create an atmosphere where pets feel safe, loved, mentally stimulated, and genuinely cared for.

About: Hi! I have two dogs of my own, and am comfortable with dogs of all ages and medical needs. I stay home so I would be able to help whenever and on short notice. I will treat your dogs as my own and am so excited to meet them! I currently stay home with my son, so my schedule is open and am able to help out whenever needed. I can do walks or drop in care. Safety is the most important thing and I will prioritize that when caring for your pets. I not only want your pets to trust me but you as well.
