About: Ive pet sat a variety of animals from horses to fish, to cats to pigs. Im able to give pills, walk, bathe, and try my best to do any other needs for your pet. Im currently working full time but will be going to school this august so my schedule will be fully open besides Monday- Thursday from 9-12 I will always try my best to make your pet happy and comfortable no matter what the environment is. I give the most love and attention I can even if its only for a small amount of time.
“Ellen has been fantastic and very transparent when it came to our home and our dogs! She was so easy to work with and understood our worries as first timers to Rover. Will recommend and book again!”

“Jacqui is amazing, if you are looking for a dog sitter please consider her. My dog definitely gave her a hard time due to high anxiety and being scared but Jacqui was patient, communicative, resourceful and dedicated to making my dog feel comfortable. I seriously don’t know what I would have done without her. I highly recommend booking her for your dog, she offers excellent service with pets and I am happy she was there for my dog.”
About: Since I was a child I have loved and respected all wildlife, but my passion is dogs. I have never met a dog that I didn’t like or didn’t like me. Have worked with several shelters in my life. I’m comfortable with all sizes and ages. Have experience with dogs with disabilities and comfortable giving medication. I would be available most days since I am currently not working. Walks, play time, check ins…Both of my fur babies passed, so currently no pets. Can also stay at your house while you’re out so your fur babies are most comfortable. I am an early morning person. That means I can be at your house before the heat to walk or play with your pet. 😀 I will care for your pet as you would like for them to be cared for. Prior warning….I tend to spoil them rotten😊 mostly with love, care, and respect. Treats, food, medication, schedules will be followed as you wish.
“I would recommend and plan to contact Nadeah again to watch my babies and house sit.”

“Nahira helped me with a last minute stay! My pup is older and she took amazing care of her. Thanks Nahira for taking care of Leia!”
About: I have been pet sitting dogs and cats since I was 13. Our pets are our family, I also own two dogs of my own! I am on summer break from college so during the summer I’m free anytime, during school I am free 4-8 hours a day for pet fun! I make sure to give lots of love, attention, cuddles, and play time with any animal of any size. I am big on treat giving!
About: I’ve been caring for pets professionally and personally for several years, and it’s truly something I’m passionate about. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments, from energetic puppies to mellow seniors and I always take the time to get to know each pet’s unique personality. Pet care fits into my daily and weekly routine as a structured, essential part of the day just like eating or working. • Morning: Feed pets, refresh water, take dogs for a walk or clean litter boxes. • Midday: Walks, playtime, or drop-in visits if providing services to clients. • Evening: Dinner, another walk or potty break, brushing or light grooming. • Safe environment: Pet-proofed spaces, separate areas if needed for different pets. • Feeding on schedule: Following owner instructions exactly, including dietary restrictions. • Exercise/playtime: Supervised yard play, walks. • Comfort & rest: Cozy resting areas, routines that mimic their home life to reduce stress. • Updates to owners: Daily photos or messages to reassure and stay transparent.
About: I have always loved taking care of animals. Growing up in military housing I would care for our neighbors dogs whether it was walking, bathing or brushing teeth. I do have two small Chihuahua mix fur babies of my own. My priority is to ensure a safe and clean home for my dogs, and I promise it will be the same for yours as well. You will get photos throughout the day to stay updated! I am currently working part time and I would have time avalible during the day to ensure I am able to provide the upmost care for your fur babies! I do live in an apartment building but there is a bark park I can take your baby to burn off energy if you prefer, or I can also walk them multiple times a day around the complex.

About: I've had animals my entire life. I enjoy playing and taking care of them. I'm also very good with them and have taken care of them my whole life.
