About: I provide calm, patient care for dogs of all personalities—especially those who need a little extra time and understanding. As a dog parent to two anxious pups, I know firsthand how important it is to move at your dog’s pace, respect their space, and really tune into their body language. I specialize in working with nervous or shy dogs and focus on creating a safe, low-stress environment where your pup can feel comfortable and cared for. Whether it’s slow, quiet bonding time or gentle walks with lots of encouragement, I’ll make sure your dog feels secure and loved while you’re away. I’m all about building trust, being consistent, and treating every dog like they’re part of the family. I’d love to learn more about your pup’s routine, preferences, and how I can help make your time apart worry-free. I am currently attending a remote graduate program and have a lot of flexibility in my day to day! I am typically available whenever needed and happy to give all my attention to your fur babies! I always ensure I am being respectful and mindful of your space and your pets space. Ensuring I treat every home and pet as my own. Following your routine to ensure your pet has the best experience will allow me to create that safe space for them, happy to connect with you on your pet’s needs and how I can foster that safe space for them!

About: Hi! I’ve been pet sitting and had my own dog for many years. Now, I have experience from drop-in visits to extended overnight stays, with many different types of needs. I’m dedicated to caring for a pet the same way their owner would and look forward to spending time with animals. I work from home most days and can accommodate a flexible potty schedule and activity level. I enjoy taking breaks to spend with pets, to get outside or tuck in on the sofa! I have an enclosed garden and large, unfenced yard. We are well back from the main road so pets are welcome to explore the neighborhood.

About: I have always been around pets of all kinds; reptiles, house pets, farm animals, even a tarantula. I am caring and attentive and up for anything! I work from home and set my own work schedule. Pet care can fit right into my flexible schedule. I would love to have a companion on my walks, as I listen to my podcasts!! I like to do my research on a particular pet if I am going to care for it. This ensures I will properly handle and care for the pet, as they vary!

About: Hello everyone! I have cared for many pets in the past with my most recent being my new puppy moose! He is an almost 9-month-old mini Aussie. With this, I’ve gained a ton of knowledge about training along with the dreaded potty training. Moose is potty trained and was fully potty trained at 5-months-old. I would love to be able to train other puppies/ dogs and have playmates for moose! I am sure your fur baby will be in the best care possible! I work part time which is usually not more than 2-4 hours a day! This leaves plenty of time for me to walk, train, and play with your pups! All pups will need to be in my care for boarding or daycare before 11 a.m. and picked up before 6 p.m. This schedule can be adjusted as I have a very flexible work schedule! I have a very large yard, along with a very playful pup to keep your pup busy! All dogs in my care will be created if I am not home to ensure they are safe. With this, all dogs will never be crated for more than 2 hours at a time. At your home, I will follow any rules you wish to ensure your pup's safety.

About: Life long, I grew up with cat's and dogs. Along with other animals in the household. Mainly growing up with two cat's and a herding dog but also two small lap dogs. I'm working Fridays and weekends. Along with heading to college in the second to last week of August so right now Monday - Thursday are my available days I have two pet Friendly dogs that love to play and I would take them to dog parks to be able to get energy out in a safe and monitored environment.

About: Throughout my life, I’ve always surrounded myself with animals. Ive owned horses, dogs, and cats and also have extensive experience with rescue dogs who have endured trauma. I have yet to meet an animal that I haven’t befriended and continue to work closely with rescues and assist people in rehoming their pets. I just left my job as a social worker and am currently pursuing my MSW. I am looking for a part time gig to help get me through school, so my schedule is pretty open. :) I normally go for a morning walk with my own rescue pup and then hit the yoga mat and get some school work done. My schedule is very flexible. I have a rescue dog who does not get along with other doggos (disappointing but we respect his boundaries). Therefore, I wouldn’t be able to house your doggo at my home but open to house sitting and for advance notice clients, I can have my father watch my dog for a week or so.

About: My parents bred our labs a couple of times when I was a kid, so puppies and dogs have always been in my life. In college I bought my own puppy and had her for a wonderful almost 10 years. She was my best friend and I talked to her and kissed her all of the time. She made me feel happy when my days were gray. Since then I’ve dog sat for multiple families and borrow my friends’ dogs to go for walks and adventures since I no longer have a pup of my own. I work three 12 hour shifts a week so I would love to spend my free days with dogs. I’ve watched my friends dogs even on work days because I work 7a-7 p so I can be there for breakfast and dinner. Most of the time I’ve stayed in their homes so that the dog feels most comfortable. I have no other pets in my home and your pup will get all the belly rubs and scratching they need. I love to go for walks and be active with the dogs (of course only if they’re capable)

“Great communication, I felt confident leaving my fur baby in her care.”

About: From a young age, I've always loved being around pets, so caring for others' pets comes naturally to me. I adore animals, but unfortunately, I'm not able to have any of my own where I currently live. Pets are naturally drawn to me and feel safe in my care, and their owners are consistently pleased when they return home after I've looked after their beloved companions. I make sure to leave every home as clean and tidy as it was when I arrived, often going the extra mile to wash any bed linens and towels I've used. My clients greatly appreciate not having to worry about these details when they return from their travels. I'm also very discreet, respecting the privacy of the people, pets, and homes I care for, and I never share any private information about my clients. Thank you for the opportunity to share my love for animals and get my fill of puppy and kitty affection! I work remotely and have a flexible schedule, allowing me to spend most of the day taking care of your furry friends in your home. When I stay in your home to care for your cherished furry friends, their safety is always my top priority. I have a spotless track record from all my previous stays, and I intend to maintain it.

About: I’ve taken care of other peoples pets for over 8 years. I have worked in a doggy daycare so I have experience with all breeds and all types of dogs and there personality’s I am open and willing to pet sit in your home to make the dog less anxious during the weekends but also during the week when you and your family need the coverage!
