“Mariela has been my five-day a week walker for my two Labradors for the past two months. She has shown great care with my dogs. Having a senior dog and a puppy is a challenge, but Mariela recognizes their individual needs and is very patient with both of them. I’m glad to have someone I can trust taking care of my pups each day!”

About: I will be as obsessed with your dog as I am with mine! I adopted my 10 year old Terrier when she was 3 months old. I have pet sat for many friends throughout the years. I have grown to learn how to walk even the stubborn dogs (mine doesn't like to walk in rain or snow). I understand the uncertainty an owner may feel to have someone walk their dog because I felt the same way when I first started using Wag. I know that your dog is part of your family and will tream them as I would treat mine.

About: I have hands on experience caring for pets as I have grown up with two dogs of my own. One of my dogs has epilepsy so I understand the importance of monitoring and caring for pets with medical needs. I have also been trusted to take care of friends, family, and neighbors pets. I have developed an understanding of what it takes to keep pets happy and healthy I am a college student so I will only be available over the summer and during breaks. Pet care is something that is incorporated into my daily routine and I have flexibility to plan my day around making sure that every pet is cared for. Your pets safety and well-being are my top priorities. I make sure to keep a close eye on them during walks and keep them in a safe environment. I follow routines clearly to make sure pets receive the correct care and keep them feeling comfortable.

“Maricela P. was just amazing with our Winston! He can be a handful at times just because he gets very excited to meet new people but Maricela handled him with the same care and affection as we do. She was the best with Winston and we are very grateful for finding her!”

About: I’ve worked as a bather at PetSmart for nearly a year where Iv gained hands on experience handling dogs of all breeds and sizes! I’ve also walked and cared for several neighbors’ dogs while they were traveling or recovering from surgery. I’m comfortable adapting to your pets special care and routine! Right now, I’m primarily working weekends, so I have plenty of weekday availability to give your pet the attention they deserve! Whether your furry friend needs a midday walk, some playtime outside, or just a little extra love while you're busy, I'm here to help! As a pet care provider, I can customize my services to meet each pet’s individual needs and maintain their comfort, routine, and safety. Whether I’m caring for pets of my own or your fur baby’s, my goal is to provide an stress free, loving environment :)

About: I have babysat and dog sat since I was 12. I am patient with all dogs that I meet and strive to give them the best care possible. I will treat your dog the way you would treat them. I am currently home from college for the summer so I have a lot of free time. I am avaliable almost every day of the week. I am very respectful of both your space and your dogs space. I am able to walk dogs, play with or just check in on them throughout the day.

“First time I used a professional dog walker. Christina was on time and my Australian Shepard definelty liked her. Would definely have Christina take care of my dog again!”

About: I have experience medicating, socializing, walking, bathing (ear cleaning and nail trims too), and house sitting dogs and cats of all different ages, needs, breeds, tempers and sizes. I currently work/volunteer with rescue dogs and cats for around 9+ years and absolutely love it! I also used to work at a veterinarian hospital for 2 years. I know how to maintain basic dog obedience and read cat and or dog behaviors very well. I always love to send report cards with you via email or text. This way you know how each day went with your lovable furry family member(s). I also enjoy sending cute and fun photos or short videos of your pet(s), wether it’s during our walk or house sitting. My goal is to always make it a pawsitive experience for you and your pet. Before work I will always have a check list making sure your fur baby is at home with everything he/she may need. After work I will go straight home to him/her and make sure they get the best care for the rest of the day. Making sure your furry family members are happy and having all their needs met makes me smile knowing they are having a pawsitive experience. I always make sure to monitor any pet in my care closely. Their safety, comfort and happiness are my biggest priorities. Cuddle time is an activity I enjoy doing with all pets. Seeing your fur baby happy with unlimited pets and affection is very rewarding to me.

About: I bring a lifetime of hands‑on experience with animals, both personally and professionally. I have cared for my own pets and entrusted animals for decades, and I have built my entire career around responsible, observant and compassionate animal care. Available both weekdays and weekends, can do morning, mid-day and evening appointments. Open to multi-day engagements for clients who need some vacation support, as well as consistent daily appointments. I have two cats and two birds, as well as a plethora of fish at home. I give off “chill vibes” and will care for your pet as if they were my own!

“Johanna did an excellent job with our Kirby. Kirby usually gets anxious if left home alone for 4hrs+ alone. With visits from Johanna while we were out for the day, I'm happy to report that Kirby was content when we came home.”

About: I am a dog owner for the past 8 years and own two Setter pups. Friends have entrusted me with their dogs for petsitting and dog walking - in some occasions I would have as many as 4 dogs with me, but I wouldn’t have it any other way! As a dog parent I know how important is to have someone you trust with your baby, I will treat your dog as my own, making sure your dog is safe and happy! My work schedule varies week by week between office and home, which allows me some flexibility. When in the area, I am flexible to go on a walk with your pup to get some fresh air or do a drop in visit to spend some time with them. When I drop in to check on your pup or take on a walk, I will always follow your instructions closely and make sure they feel safe and comfortable. During walks, I will keep a close eye on them, always be on leash, and make sure they get the right amount of exercise based on their energy level. Afterward, provide a quick pupdate so you know your pup is happy and well taken care of.

“Thanks for taking great care of Scout! We appreciate you! Sorry for the last minute change on Friday! Hope classes are going well! -Brett and Kari”

About: Since I was 11, my neighbors have trusted me to feed and walk their dogs + cats. I have handled very large dogs but also small dogs without struggle, with a wide range of ages from puppies to seniors. I have worked with multiple special needs animals and can administer any kind of medicine. I am a student so I have summer off right now, but start school august 25th. Most important holidays I will be gone out of town for. I am in a boating family, so most weekends we try to get out onto the lake during the summer!! Mostly only free during summer and Christmas break, I try to keep my calendar up to date but feel free to always reach out! I have a fenced in yard with enough space for your pups to run around and play. My neighborhood is a very safe and quiet area. I pay close attention to the pup and will follow your care directions exactly how you would like!

About: I have grown up with many animals, including exotic animals. We have a grooming station in home and love animals of all types and breeds. I haven’t accept exotic animals as well. I have owned horses, mini pigs inside my house, sugar, gliders, chinchillas, hamsters, lizards, cat, dogs, ferrets, I’m probably forgetting a few more. I have an open schedule and care for my pets very well. My dog even gets dental cleanings every year. My favorites get their nails cut and bathed weekly. I have multiple dog beds, a cat tower tons of toys for all different red animals. Have a fenced in backyard, grooming, station, and home. I have extra cages or tanks if need be. I prefer not to kettle animals unless they need to be under the owners agreement.

About: I’ve been left to take care of my family dog and dog sit for neighbors overnight. I have bathed, walked, fed, and exercised their pets. Right now, I am available at any time. I’m home everyday of the week and can go do overnights as well. Open availability every week I have a complete fenced yard. I have a friendly dog named Winston who loves playing with other dogs. I allow pets to relax on furniture and beds. I can crate if needed.
