About: My partner and I have been caring our rescued chihuahua mix since 2018. We have also help our friends and families babysit their dogs when they go on vacation. My partner and I currently working remotely at home; thus, our schedule is flexible. Once we are done with our work, we have plenty of time to serve your pet. I will treat your pet like my own pet. I will make sure your pet has access to water easily and have meals at their regular time.

“Josephine (JoJo) was great! She is reliable, punctual, friendly, and very sweet. She jumped right in to feed him and get him ready for his walks... Our dog loved her instantly and trusted her to go on walks and leave "mommy" behind. We will definitely be repeat customers!”

About: For boarding, my house as a large yard for any dog to run around in. For walking, I likely spoil any dog with treats if allowed Currently as I look for new job opportunities, I am available most days to look after your dog. I have a fairly flexible with my schedule and able to pick up and drop-off if nearby. I have a 45lb german shephard that is calm when indoors. If weather is nice then I will let the dogs run around in a fenced in yard. I would like to introduce them just to be safe, but my dog is friendly with all dogs.

“Missy has been walking my dog for about half a year now. She has been more than wonderful. My dog is not an easy dog. She's also very skittish around new people. Missy was able to work with her and transitioned well. Now my dog gets excited and happy every time she sees her. Missy is very attentive and follow instructions very well. She asked questions about my dog and was interested in getting to know her and care for her right. I believe her experience in working at shelters is an asset and help her in understanding dogs behavior and making them feel comfortable and cared for. She's also very on time, reliable, and responsible. All in all, I can't recommend her enough. She's just awesome!”

“Alex does weekly walks for our dog Zoey and she is so wonderful! Zoey has stranger danger and Alex was very understanding and patient when we did our first meeting. After just a few walks, Zoey warmed right up and is now so happy to see her. Alex is very communicative and takes lots of great photos. I feel at ease with Zoey in Alex’s care!”

“Lexx made time to do a meet and greet with Panda on a Friday evening and was great working with her (even though Panda tends to be barky and anxious). She followed our instructions and left a detailed description of her walk! Would definitely recommend Lexx!”

“Phuong did a great job with my very hyper puppy! I was so grateful she was available at short notice to do a meet and greet and give the little guy a nice walk.”

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and currently have two of my own—including a older pup—so I’m very comfortable with dogs of all ages and energy levels. I understand the extra care and patience senior dogs need, whether it’s slower walks, administering meds, or just making them feel safe and comfortable. I treat every dog like family and make sure their routine is followed closely so they feel right at home with me. My schedule is very flexible—I’m available mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends. Whether it’s a quick walk or extended care, I’m here whenever you need me! I ensure each walk is safe, fun, and suited to your dog’s needs—whether that’s a slow stroll, energetic walk, or potty break. Whatever is needed!

About: I am a pet owner and I am a huge animal lover. I have had experience caring for small and large dogs, and I am comfortable grooming, walking, feeding, playing with and caring for your pets. I have experience with all sorts of behaviors and am a good problem solver. I will make sure your pet is well, happy, and well cared for. I will make sure to update you on your pet while we are having fun! Please feel free to contact me to discuss my services! I would love to help in any way. Thanks, Mehak There’s times when I’m working from home and can provide pet care. I also love being around animals, and I can’t have more dogs yet so I love to be able to care for and be around more furries when I can. I make sure to provide all the love and cuddles and play time while you’re away. I ensure that your pet is consistent with their normal routine so that they feel most comfortable even when you’re away.

“We are just starting with weekly walks and Harold has been very patient with Penny who is nervous and not ready to leave the house with a stranger yet. He has given her space and has not pressured her. Very appreciative.”

“Cyndi was so great with our dogs. They connected with her immediately and greeted her with enthusiasm on every visit. Friendly and reliable— our dogs definitely loved Cyndi’s visits and the variety of walks she took them on. We plan to have her care for our dogs again on future trips if she’s available.”

About: I have experience taking care of pets of many sizes and kinds. I have a lovely 8yo child who is very gentle and respectfull with animals. I work part time, usually out of home for about 2 to 4 hours per day. We take our fur guests to walks and dog Parks. I have a fenced yard and only out of home for about 2 to 4 hours a day. Your fur baby will get lots of attention.

About: Pet is part of my family. I grew up in a family with pets all the time and have extensive experience taking care of dogs and cats! I am currently working remotely and have enough time to take care of all the pets! My house has a big backyard for dogs to run and play and enough space inside the house for them. The house has fenced backyard and I am mainly working remotely, so I am able to pay attention to the pets most of the time!

About: I adore animals, and your fur babies will be well cared for; rest assured! I'm something of an animal whisperer; I tune in and speak their language. Hugs, songs, personalized care, bar none! I send updates with pictures! For me my love of pets began with Charlottes Web, my sweet Chihuahua who I nicknamed Toto (I fancied myself to be Dorothy), nestling next to my sweet kitty, followed by parakeets, and bunnies, I also collected plastic horses and chased butterflies. (Yes, I was that girl!) So, it became a natural fit, along with my career as a writer (that affords me a flexible schedule and much freedom), to make myself available at a moment's notice to care for home & hearth, animals of all stripes and breeds, large and small. I love what I do! I'm also available for longer housesitting jobs, traveling as needed, to care for your home: tending to mail, plants, garden, and of course, pets. I love repeat clients, that way, I get to know each one, establishing a bond. And in all cases, as a mature, kind, responsible caregiver, always responsive to needs, with a direct line of communication, so that you know your home and fur babies are always safe and well cared for =) NOTE: I'm between Nanny and FA contracts, so my current schedule is very flexible. I'm available for Housesits (home, animals, plants), dog walking, and drop-ins. Don't hesitate to reach out. I'm happy to help! Your pet's health and well-being are of the utmost importance! I am mindful of whatever is needed to ensure your pet is taken care of, be it physical or emotional, and I respect any protocols set in place. I avail myself of frequent contact should any questions or concerns arise to put your mind at rest!
