Kelera is absolutely wonderful. She was very attentive, detail-oriented, and timely in taking care of my fur babies while I was away. My babies warmed up to her instantly and we certainly won't hesitate to call upon her services again in the future. Kelera is the best!! 👍

About: well, one thing that makes me unique is my extensive experience in training puppies. i've worked with a lot of dogs before, so i'm great at handling them and helping them learn new tricks. but wait, there's more! i also have some experience with senior care and can provide personalized care and support for older animals. I have open availability! Just give me a two days notice and a day before if you need to cancel. You can reach me by my phone number. when i'm caring for pets in my own home, i make sure to provide a safe and comfortable environment for them. i have all the supplies they need, from food and water bowls to toys and comfortable bedding and when i'm caring for pets in their owner's home, i follow the same guidelines and make sure to respect their space and routine. i also always make sure the pets are comfortable and well-taken care of.

About: I’ve had the joy of working with dogs of all sizes at the Homewood Adoption Center, where I learned to care for every personality—from playful puppies to wise seniors. I love helping each dog feel safe, happy, and loved, and I bring that same dedication to every pet in my care. I am available to care for pets all week and can adjust my schedule to meet your needs, including overnight stays if required. Your pets’ comfort and happiness are my top priority! When caring for pets in your home, I follow your instructions closely to ensure consistency and comfort for your pet. I provide feeding, walks, playtime, cuddles, and bathroom breaks as needed, while keeping your home safe and clean. I also give updates and photos so you can feel connected and reassured while you’re away.

About: I am a dog mom to two senior dogs, Chloe and Tuni. Tuni is a Doxie with IVDD and Chloe is a grumpy old lady. Both are my world and the light of my life! I am a special education teacher, who works during the day, but I am available on evenings, weekends, holidays, and during school breaks. I am excited for a change of pace and look forward to working with your fur babies! I have a house with a fully enclosed yard and a finished basement. I am available for house-sitting or drop-in visits, depending on your needs.

About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember! I’ve been caring for them since childhood and have gained extensive experience working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I spent two years working at an animal shelter, where I handled everything from socializing shy rescues to assisting with basic training and care for high-energy pups. In addition to my shelter experience, I’ve cared for senior dogs, puppies, and dogs with special needs, including those with mobility issues and anxiety. I also offer boarding, walking, and drop-in visits, ensuring that every pup in my care gets the love, attention, and exercise they need. Whether it’s a cuddle session, a long walk, or playtime, I’m dedicated to making dogs feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. 🚨🚨🚨 PLEASE READ BEFORE BOOKING 🚨🚨🚨 Weekday Care & Supervision I am temporarily home-based, which means I am home throughout the day providing attentive, hands-on care. Dogs receive frequent potty breaks, meals on schedule, enrichment, and consistent supervision. This setup is ideal for pups who benefit from structure, routine, and human presence rather than being left alone for extended periods. ***Temporary Home-Based Notice: This availability is temporary. Any future changes to my schedule will be communicated clearly and in advance for ongoing or repeat bookings. Weekend Care I am fully available on weekends and intentionally limit my schedule to ensure each dog receives quality, individualized attention. Whether it’s relaxed downtime at home, structured walks, or light outings, your dog’s comfort and safety always come first. Potty Training Requirement All dogs must be potty trained. If your dog is prone to accidents, diapers are required to maintain a clean, comfortable environment for all pets in my care. What to Bring for Your Dog’s Stay To ensure a seamless and stress-free experience, please pack the following: 🐾 Food & Treats: Sufficient for the entire stay 🐾 Food & Water Bowls: To maintain familiarity and routine 🐾 Collar/Harness & Leash: Required for walks and outdoor time 🐾 Emergency Contact Information 🐾 Daily Routine Overview: Feeding, potty, sleep, and behavior notes 🐾 Medications (if applicable): Clearly labeled with instructions 🐾 Bedding or Blanket (optional): Familiar scent for comfort 🐾 Crate (optional but recommended): For rest and decompression 🐾 Poop Bags (optional) 🐾 Favorite Toys (optional): Comfort items from home Care Standards I intentionally keep my environment calm, clean, and structured. Your dog will be treated as a guest in my home, not just a booking on a calendar. Safety, communication, and your pet’s well-being are always my priority. If you have specific expectations, questions, or care requests, please reach out prior to booking. I look forward to providing your pup with exceptional care. 🐕❤️ I have a small yard with a secure chain link setup, providing a safe space for dogs to play and stretch their legs. While my yard is not fully fenced, I always ensure supervised outdoor time to keep your pup safe. Having a companion can help ease anxiety and make their stay more fun and engaging. Whether they love to play, lounge, or explore, I create a comfortable, stress-free environment where every dog feels at home. Safety is my top priority, and I’m committed to giving your pet the care and attention they deserve! ❤️🐕

About: I’ve taken care of multiple dogs in my life including puppies. I work especially well with small and I have a good temperament to make almost all dogs my friend. :) I’m currently part time so I’m free for the entire day whenever someone needs my help. I won’t usually be free on Thursday and Tuesday. I have a fenced yard and two dogs who are not aggressive. I make sure to keep all dangerous items out of reach of the dogs and watch them at all times.

Jorinee was excellent with both of my cats. I am so glad I found her. I use to be concerned about who would look after my fur babies or even if I would be able to travel at all. My cats were very comfortable with her. They were relaxed, well fed and their litter box was clean. You can tell it was done on a consistent basis. I have another lengthy vacation for next year and will no doubt be requesting her. She is excellent and I would recommend her to anyone asking.

About: I have taken care of family, friends, and co-workers cats for a few years now. I’m very reliable and I enjoy spending time with the cats. Please Read Before Booking! Due to each cat being different, I request each pet parent to bring their own litter box, litter, food bowls, food, and anything else you feel will make your fur baby comfortable during their stay. I currently work from home so I am home all day every day monday through friday and I am able to be home with the pets at all times. I am able to have a designated area for food, litter, and will be able to spend time with the cats all day so they wont be lonely. They are free to roam my place.

About: Since I was a kid, I knew that I was born to take care of fur babies. I absolutely love them. They are the best I used to always play like I was a vet and till this day That’s exactly what I want to do with my life. They deserve the world, I love to help the strays an any way I can. Whether that’s sheltering them for a day or two, getting them vaccinated, taking them to a pet facility and etc. I don’t like seeing animals in need every fur baby needs they own human. Don’t you think I’m currently working part-time but I’m looking to take care of the fur babies and help out full time. Anytime. I can even do multiple days I have an puppy and now one cat due to my other passing, I clean my cats litter four times a day, depending on smell, and how full it is, and I walk my puppy 5 times a day because she has an weak bladder. Hygiene and health means everything.
