20. Kamryn K.
About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my home was always full of life with cats, dogs, turtles, crabs, and even a cockatiel, which taught me how to care for all kinds of pets. Now, I have my own Standard Poodle who’s my world, and I also foster kittens from time to time, so I know how to handle pets with different needs and personalities. I regularly watch my grandmother’s three dogs when she’s out of town and have cared for larger breeds like Rottweilers, so I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes and temperaments. I’ll treat your pet like they’re part of my own family—making sure they’re happy, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. work from home with a very flexible schedule, which means I can give your pets the attention and care they deserve, whether it’s cuddles, playtime, or sticking to a specific routine. At my home, your pet will enjoy a cozy environment and a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor play. I follow their routines to help them feel comfortable and at ease. In your home, I stick to your pet’s schedule, provide lots of love and attention, and keep your space tidy.
