About: I have been pet sitting since I was a teenager. I've also cared for pets throughout my years. Pets are like human beings to me. I love them like I love my children! I spoil them, feed them, play with them, walk them, bath them, entertain them, give them treats, and I always make sure they have lots of play toys. I have a deep passion for pets, and a loving family that will also spoil and play with your pets. I provide safe, loving, and Trust-worthy pet care. I am very patient and nurturing and will treat your pets as my own. I am currently very flexible and can normally work around anyone's schedule. I make my own schedule so if you let me know in advance I can be available for your pets. I have a big house with an unfenced yard, and a loving family that will play and love on your pets. I have no pets that I own and I will accommodate and follow all of your instructions and request.

19. Preston & Krislyn P.
About: Hello! My name is Preston, and I have been passionately caring for pets for over 20 years. As a dedicated pet lover, I understand the importance of providing exceptional care and attention to our furry friends. Throughout my extensive experience, I have gained invaluable knowledge and skills that make me an ideal candidate for pet/house sitting. My journey into pet care started at a young age when I discovered my profound connection with animals. Since then, I have dedicated myself to learning and understanding their needs, behavior, and overall well-being. Over the years, I have had the privilege of caring for a wide range of pets, including dogs, cats, birds, fish, reptiles, and small mammals. I firmly believe that each pet is unique, and their care should be tailored accordingly. When entrusted with a pet's well-being, I go above and beyond to ensure their comfort and happiness. From regular exercise and feeding routines to administering medication and providing ample playtime, I am committed to maintaining their health and overall quality of life. In addition to pet care, I understand the importance of home security and maintenance. As a responsible house sitter, I will ensure that your home is well-looked-after during your absence. You can trust me to keep your property safe and organized, and I will gladly handle any additional tasks you may require, such as watering plants, collecting mail, or managing other household responsibilities. My previous clients have appreciated my professionalism, reliability, and genuine love for animals. I take pride in building strong relationships with both pets and their owners, ensuring open communication and trust throughout the entire pet-sitting experience. With my two decades of personal pet care experience, you can rest assured that your beloved pets and home will be in capable hands. I am excited to meet your furry family members and provide them with the utmost care, affection, and attention they deserve. Please feel free to reach out to me to discuss your specific pet-sitting needs. I look forward to the opportunity to serve you and your furry companions. Me and my wife does a team effort in making sure your pet is not neglected. I work a full time job and can care for them after I finish work as my wife can care for your pet during the mornings. We are free most days and will just need to schedule accordingly to work things out. Whatever your situation is, we can accommodate most of it besides boarding. We have little ones and would only be open to boarding if the pets are very gentle pets. We also have a dog of our own which we rescued and she is now a sweet giant.
