About: What sets me apart as a pet caregiver: I am a zootechnician graduated in Colombia, with over a decade of experience working with animals. My care goes beyond basic routines — I focus on each pet’s well-being, observing their behavior to understand their needs. I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages and personalities, including those with special needs. My professional training allows me to interpret their signals, reduce stress, and ensure they feel safe, understood, and truly cared for. For more than four years, families have trusted me not just to care for their pets, but to connect with them, creating a calm and positive environment where they can feel at ease. This thoughtful and personalized approach is what truly makes my service a different kind of experience. Personalized care for your pet, whenever you need it I adapt to your schedule to provide the best care for your dog or cat, whether day or night. I can provide walks, house calls, or care for your pet during the day or night, depending on your needs. My availability is flexible, even on weekends, so you can always count on me when your pet needs attention, affection, and companionship. My priority is that your furry friend feels safe, happy, and well cared for at all times. If you're looking for someone you can trust to care for your pet, I'm ready to help! Personalized care to build a unique connection with your pet My approach to care is based on understanding and respecting each pet's personality. I offer personalized routines tailored to the needs of your dog or cat, allowing me to get to know them better each day and create a relationship of trust and affection. Whether it's leisurely walks, playtime, or simply providing a relaxing space to rest, my goal is to make your pet feel safe and comfortable. By following daily routines, I can recognize their preferences, behaviors, and cues, adapting to them to ensure they are always happy and well cared for. Each pet is unique, and I strive to provide them with the individualized attention they deserve. This way, over time, our connection strengthens, and your furry friend will feel completely at ease in their environment.

About: I've taken care of two family dogs who became family members, one of which I rescued from a neglectful owner. I was a hands-on dad to my son, and as a single parent knew well how to feed and change him and care for him when he was sick. As a senior, I've the experience and "seasoning" to know what's important, whether it's an infant or child or a family dog, and how to see to it that the one in my care is well cared for, happy, and loved. Since the condo development where my wife and I live doesn't allow dogs, I take special pleasure in spending time with them at every opportunity. I come from a long line of dog lovers on my dad's side, and proudly carry on that tradition. I'm a retiree who does part-time volunteer work, both hands-on with elementary-school-aged children and legislative and policy advocacy on behalf of folks with intellectual and developmental disabilities. My other major activities are staying in shape and learning a foreign language. These part-time gigs, and the fact that my wife works part-time, leave me enough time to do some pet care. I cannot care for pets in my home, or for that matter have a dog, because the condo development where I live does not permit dogs. I care for dogs in their owner's homes, following their owners' lead, so to speak, and according to their owners' directives. Fortunately, this means that the dogs I care for, who know their way around their own turf, do not need to adjust to new environs. As a guest myself, I am naturally inclined to treat the home where I find myself with extra care and respect, more so than I would my own home.

Maia was great!! We reached out last minute for a walk and she was able to fit us into her schedule. While we did not get the chance to meet Maia beforehand, she was kind, responsive, and put our minds at ease. Maia followed the instructions we provided and was really great with our dog Fritz. She sent us photos and shared a thorough recap after the walk. We will definitely be booking Maia again in the future!

We had a fantastic experience with Peter! He was incredibly easy to work with and responded right away, even on short notice. Although we didn’t meet in person, we felt completely at ease thanks to clear communication and the videos we sent him in advance. Peter went above and beyond by sharing lots of great photos of our dog, Captain, during their time together—which really put our minds at ease. Captain absolutely loved him, and it showed! We’re so grateful for Peter’s care and look forward to booking with him again in the future. Highly recommend!

About: Hi! I'm Eric, and I've been a dog lover all my life, I have experience helping my pets give birth to their offspring and feeding them with formulated milk at their earliest stage, and taking care of them to their senior years. I own two Shih Tzus named Piccolo and Didith. I often go to Van Saun Dog Park to give my own pets and other pet guests some exercise and feel the nature. My utmost priority is the SAFETY and COMFORT of my pet guests. Dog Boarding is overnight or 24hr. Stay. Doggy Day Care drop-offs are around 7-9 am, and pick-ups are around 4-6 pm. I am working online in the comfort of my home so they will not be alone and I will have plenty of time to play with your pups. Whenever I feed my pet guests, I separate them with baby fences, and during their playtime, I watch them closely to avoid any untoward incident.

About: Hi! I’m Dani, a passionate animal lover that would love to help you out! I have a degree in psychology, which not only fuels my love for understanding behavior, but also equips me with the skills to connect with furry friends on a deeper level. Having worked as a preschool teacher, I bring a nurturing and patient approach to every being I’m responsible for. I understand that leaving your pet can leave you anxious, saddened, and frustrated! I aim to provide as much reassurance as possible, which includes photo and video updates and clear and consistent communications.

Andrea dog walked Cody on one day earlier this week (3 times during the day) and I couldn't be happier. Her communication was outstanding, plenty of photos and even documents how many times he pee-ed and pooped on each walk. She was accommodating when I had to adjust my schedule and was very reliable. She even washed out his dog food container when it was empty, which was beyond the call of duty. Andrea has a lovely manner, is very pleasant and eager to please. Would definitely work with her again.

I work a part-time job for the summer so my hours are very flexible and i’m more than willing to take any dog so long as it can fit into my schedule When it comes to pets whether they’re mine or a clients i ensure that they are consistently fed, walked, and given time to play outside in my backyard. I enjoy playing them too either with toys or just running around with them.
