About: I have taken care of dogs of all ages for more than 9 years, pets of my neighbors, friends and my own pets, I consider that they need the best care in the world as they give everything for us being our companions on this journey that is life, talking a little about my experience, I have taken care of small and large pets to bathe and feed them and walk them, I have training in the face of any altercation on the street. Being something that I like to do since before coming to this country is something that I want to dedicate myself to for an indeterminate time. I have a fenced yard and at the moment I don't have small children, so all the attention will be focused on pets for as long as they need it.
About: My love for animals goes along way. My family has always brought rescues to me since I was a teenager. I'd care for them, bathe, love , train them, and if I could, I'd give them sanctuary. Due to ongoing home improvement projects, my weekly schedule is quite flexible, allowing me to easily accommodate to pet care needs of mine and others. I have a pet room in the works. Where i have dog food and clothing located. Along with treats and any medical pet needs. I have a fenced in back yard that gives my two pets freedom to roam.
About: I have had dogs and cats my entire life. Many times I have been trusted by neighbor, friends and family members to care for their furry loved ones well they are away. I work part time so I have plenty of time to play and hang out with your pets. Wednesday’s and Fridays are my long days at work but the rest of the week I am pretty flexible. I will take care of your pet in their home. That way they are less stressed and have all the comforts they are use to. But if need to care for your pet at my home I have a fenced in yard and two lovable pups to keep your dog company. I could also crate your dog if needed or requested.
About: I love all the furry babies, my own fur babies are treated like my children. I work from home, so your baby would have my attention through the entire day. We would have time to play, walk, snuggle, and bond. I have a large fenced in back yard. Your baby would feel at home and comfortable in my home, they would have full access to roam and wander. They also would be allowed on the couches / beds for snuggles and belly rubs. I work from home, giving me the flexibility to ensure your pup has plenty of time and attention. I have an 11 year old son who is just as much as an animal lover. I have a large fenced in back yard. My foxy girl loves to get her zoomies out back there, and loves playing fetch. My son will love on, play, and engage with your pup also.
“Denise was honestly incredible! It was pretty short notice and some people wouldn’t watch Caesar because he’s a pitbull, she rearranged her schedule to watch him. She gave me multiple updates and pictures throughout. When I came to pick him up, she gave me a painting he made (with the help of peanut butter and plastic wrap I assume)! 1000% recommend”
About: Hi, I’m Art I’ve spent the past 10+ years immersed in the world of dogs—personally, professionally, and through volunteer work. From working at PetSmart to volunteering in dog rehabilitation programs, I’ve built deep experience with pups of all sizes, temperaments, and needs. I’ve been a proud dog owner for over a decade and a trusted sitter for friends, family, and clients who rely on me for consistent, loving care. Whether your dog needs high-energy playtime, gentle companionship, medication, or just a calm, dependable presence—I’ve got it covered. Dogs aren't just animals to me—they’re family. I treat every dog in my care like one of my own, making sure they’re safe, happy, and loved whether it’s for a walk, drop-in, or overnight stay. You’ll get plenty of updates, photos, and peace of mind knowing your dog is in experienced hands. Let’s set up a Meet & Greet—I’d love to meet you and your pup! I work overnights and I am available during the day noon to 9 pm. I am available weekends with some advance notice. Available in house or come to you with notice. I have a fenced in yard that we do not use chemicals on and monitor for pests or plants that are not animal friendly. Home comes stocked with a friendly playful dog, toys, and cat that will probably hide.
About: I have had dogs and cats all my life from puppy/kitten to seniors and always try to make everyday special for them. Very attentive to their needs. Detail and safety oriented. I have a full time work from home job so taking care of pets during the day would be simple if they are taken care of here. I am flexible if need to be in your home, as long as I have internet access for work. I have a very large fenced in yard and numerous rooms in the house to keep your pet comfortable and taken care of. I have my own medium sized dog and cat so if they are friendly they can play but if not, can always sequester them in a nice safe space.

Whether I’m out of town or just coming over for potty/play dates during my long work shifts, he’s my go-to. I trust him with my animals and in my house, and he takes care of my kids as if they are his own. He is responsible, flexible, and best of all an absolute animal lover. My kids all love him and call him “Uncle Art,” (well, they would if they could talk.) I highly recommend him for anybody looking for someone to take care of their pets.”
