About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my deep dedication to providing personalized care tailored to each pet's needs. I have hands-on experience caring for a variety of pets, from energetic puppies to senior dogs needing extra attention and patience. I excel at establishing a safe, nurturing environment that helps pets feel comfortable and loved in their owners' absence. Beyond standard pet care, I bring exceptional attention to detail, ensuring pets maintain their routines, whether it's administering medication, feeding on a precise schedule, or providing stimulating activities to keep them happy and healthy. What truly makes my services unique is that I view pet care as not just a job but an opportunity to serve the community. As a mother of two teenagers, I involve my children in learning how to responsibly care for animals under my guidance. This helps them understand the value of compassion, empathy, and giving back to others by treating pets with the same love and respect we would our own family members. Together, we aim to provide peace of mind to pet owners by treating their furry family members as our own. Pet care is a natural and fulfilling part of my daily and weekly routine. As someone who juggles multiple responsibilities, I prioritize creating a structured schedule that allows me to provide attentive, consistent care to the pets I look after. Each day, I plan my tasks around the specific needs of the pets in my care, ensuring their feeding, walks, playtime, and any special requirements—like medication or grooming—are handled on time. My flexibility and time-management skills allow me to accommodate even last-minute requests, providing peace of mind to pet owners with busy lives. Incorporating pet care into my routine has also been an invaluable way to teach my children about responsibility and compassion. They often assist me with simple tasks under my supervision, giving them a sense of community involvement while allowing me to maintain a high standard of care for each pet. This integration of pet care into my daily life isn’t just a responsibility—it’s a passion that aligns perfectly with my desire to make a positive impact on both pets and their owners. Caring for pets in their own homes is a responsibility I take very seriously. I strive to provide a seamless experience that maintains the pet’s usual routine and ensures their comfort and safety in a familiar environment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I begin by thoroughly understanding their specific needs, including feeding schedules, exercise preferences, playtime activities, and any medical or behavioral requirements. I ensure that every detail is followed precisely to keep pets happy and stress-free. During each visit, I prioritize interactive care, whether that’s engaging in their favorite games, taking them for walks, or simply providing companionship. For pets requiring additional attention, such as seniors or those with special needs, I bring patience and care to ensure they remain calm and comfortable. I also treat my clients’ homes with the utmost respect. I maintain a clean and organized space, follow any provided instructions, and ensure the home is secure when I leave. My goal is to not only care for the pets but also provide peace of mind to their owners, knowing their furry family members and home are in trusted hands.

About: I’ve got a big Doberman and a goofy American Staffy of my own, so I’m super comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I’ve taken care of everything from little lap dogs to big, reactive pups—and I truly get them! I treat every dog like my own, with love, patience, all of the attention! Pet care fits into my routine easily since I have a flexible schedule. I’m available on short notice and can give your pup the attention and care they need throughout the day—whether it’s for walks, feedings, or just company. In my home, pets enjoy a calm, cozy space with lots of love and attention. I have a large yard, and while it’s not fenced, I always keep dogs safely leashed outside unless otherwise requested. I don’t use crates at the moment, but I make sure each dog has a comfy spot to relax and feel secure. In a client’s home, I follow their routine closely—whether that’s feeding schedules, walk times, or specific habits. I’m respectful, reliable, and always focused on keeping pets happy and stress-free while you’re away.

About: I’ve been around and cared for dogs my whole life. I’ve had four dogs, and one currently! I love dogs of all sizes and age! I am an active college student looking to take care of your pets. I do have another job but it is flexible. Weekends work best for me but I can make weekdays work if my schedule allows. I always make sure my dogs are happy and content. Full water bowls and many potty breaks. I never forget to play with them inside or outside.

About: I've been around dogs my whole life, I've had my own dog since I was 5 also love cats. I will bathe, feed, walk and take great care of your pets. Right now I'm a stay at home dad with a 20 month old and I have 4 older children that go to school during the day. I have two dogs at home of my own, they're both well trained. I can do whatever is needed and requested of me. I have many years experience with animals.

About: I have been surrounded by animals my whole life. I have currently at my house 2 dogs, 4 cats, 3 guinea pigs, a hermit crab, and a bearded dragon. I have the most experience with dogs, cats and guinea pigs however i have some knowledge of other animals as well! I have been taking care of animals sense i was 7yrs old and personally love them! I am a college student right now and currently have a job part time that i work every other week. I have plenty of time in between my classes to check up on your animals and make them feel better when your away. I take time out of my day to play with them, groom them and make sure their eating and drinking :) For my animals personally i have them all on a schedule, I feed my dogs their food twice a day or when its empty, and monitor whose eating what. I have my cats food upstairs where only my cats can get to it, so they can eat whenever they are hungry. For my older cat we feed her wet food because she is having a hard time with the dry food. Guinea pigs get their water switched out every other day, and they get fed 1/2 a cup each of food. Hay is given to them on a regular! They all get lots of attention! (the hermit crab and bearded dragon are not mine, I do not take care of them however i do have a general idea of how they are supposed to be taken care of!) I would also like to point out that I do think meet and greets are very important not just for me but also for your dog. I feel it is good to have a connection to the dog to make sure he or she is comfortable with me! that is why my bookings are two days in advance for dog walks and walk in visits and three days in advance for house sitting. I do feel that this is very important, because at the end of the day, I do not personally know you dog and your dog does not personally know me. (sorry for the little rant about meet and greets lol) So I have picked up watching animals full time for the summer, i love every one of the dogs i have met so far and hope to continue to meet new animals! I am very flexible throughout the day and i always keep my calendar updated! I always make sure your pets are doing okay, comforting them when they are feeling sad, playing with them when they are feeling energized, and making sure they stay on their schedule. I make sure i know exactly when they need to be let out, or go on a walk. When they need to eat, and what time to start settling them down for bed. Along when to get up.

About: I have had a love for animals since I was very little! I take the responsibility of caring for others very seriously and treat them as if they were my own! Let me take the worry and stress out of hiring a pet sitter by knowing you have someone reliable for you babies I just graduated with my bachelor’s degree in Criminal Justice and will be starting law school come August! I have open availability for the summer between 8-5 (sometimes a little later)! Caring for pets is more than just a job—it's a responsibility I take seriously. Whether I’m providing care in my own home or visiting yours, my approach is grounded in safety, trust, and creating a calm, pet-friendly environment. **In My Home:** * I maintain a clean, secure, and pet-proof environment. * Pets are never left unsupervised in unsafe areas, and I use closed doors to manage boundaries if needed. * All animals are introduced slowly and carefully to avoid stress or conflict, especially if there are other pets. * I follow your instructions for feeding, exercise, medication, and comfort items to help your pet feel at home. **In Clients' Homes:** * I respect your space and follow your routines as closely as possible to keep your pet comfortable. * I keep doors and gates secure at all times and double-check for any escape risks. * I provide regular updates, including photos/videos and messages, or phone/video calls so you feel connected and reassured while you’re away. * I observe pets for any changes in behavior or health and will notify you immediately if anything seems off. In all settings, I use positive reinforcement techniques, handle animals with compassion, and maintain high standards of hygiene. My goal is always to build a trusting bond with both you and your pet, creating a safe and stress-free experience for everyone.
