About: I grew up in a home for rescues and have loved every pet. I adore caring for animals. I'm 19, but have trained almost every dog (out of 7) that I've had. I am extremely flexible, if I have about a day or two notice, I can do just about anything your fur baby needs me for. I would not offer services in my home due to a shy pet of my own. I will, however, groom, take on walks, take to their appointments, let outside, or generally care for your pet from your home.

About: I have had dogs all of my life and I have a 3 year old dog I adopted as a puppy and I have trained her to be well behaved at home and on walks, unless she sees a squirrel and gets excited. I have experience walking multiple difficult dogs at once and maintaining control. I’m currently working part time and am available for walking/visits between 10:30am and 4:30pm Monday-Thursday beginning on May 12th. I love taking my personal dog on walks around the city of Lincoln and would love to take yours too! I care for my pet by knowing her body language and keeping her separate from other dogs when I know she is stressed. I have always been around dogs and am able to read new animals very quickly to know what they need from me.

About: I have hands-on experience caring for different animals including dogs, cats, rabbits, and hamsters. I grew up with 3 cats and 2 dogs, so I understand how to properly care for pets and read their behavior. Living in the countryside gave me even more experience with animals and taught me to be patient, and responsible. I am a very caring and reliable person who truly loves animals. I will treat your pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and well taken care of. I have a flexible schedule and I am available for dog walks in the morning, afternoon, and evening. I usually walk dogs in the park where they can enjoy fresh air and exercise. I can adjust my time to fit your pet’s routine and needs. I always make sure pets are safe and comfortable. During walks, I keep dogs on a leash and stay attentive at all times. I choose safe areas like parks for walks and always follow the owner’s instructions to make sure your pet feels secure and happy.

About: I grew up with pets my whole life. My family and friends have relied on me walk, feed, and house/dog sit when they are unavailable. My dog MJ, who passed in 2020, made one of the biggest impacts in my life, and if I can give more care and love to animals it would be very fulfilling. I am comfortable around pets of all ages, and will cater to each animals needs. It is always my aim to adore your pet as much as you do! My job is mostly remote and I do make my own schedule. So I will be able to easily cater to your pet care needs. I will respect your pets boundaries and cater to their needs. My goal is to make your pet feel safe and loved. All pets are different, and require different ways of caring for.

About: I have a Siberian Husky and we love to travel and go on adventures! I love going on walks and wouldn’t mind having another furry friend to join us! I live in a house with 2 female dogs (my husky and my roommates pitbull) along with one kiddo who also loves animals as well! Prefer to meet and greet in advance if you book your animal to stay at my house. I work full time at a bank most days. I wake up in the mornings to let my dogs out and feed them and then they free roam the house during the day. When I get home at night I feed them again and take them out for walks or to the lake or dog park to run free and have fun with other dogs! I have a small yard that is not fenced in where my dogs get placed on a leash to do their business. They get let out multiple times a day between my roommate and myself. I also have a kennel for if your pet needs it during the day when nobody’s home.

About: I have been surrounded by animals my entire life! Born and raised on a horse farm I have lots of experience with animals ranging from horses, cows, and chickens, to dogs, cats, and small reptiles. I have dog sat for friends, family, and neighbors for 10+ years and have experience with dogs and cats of all kinds, sizes, and ages. I have experience in kennel training and potty training young dogs. I currently have two dogs of my own. I have experience walking, feeding, bathing, and medicating dogs and cats. I work from home and have flexibility throughout day to fit your pets needs. I know that my dogs like to stick to their schedule, so I like to do the same for your pets and their needs. I will be caring for your pets in the environment that they are most comfortable in, their own home! My goal is to make sure that your pets are comfortable and safe while you are gone while also giving them endless amounts of attention and care so they aren't worried while you are away or busy at work. If your pets are more active or energetic, I will make sure that they have time to play, run around, or just stretch their legs as much as possible. If your pets would rather spend their time sleeping and laying around, I will make sure that they are in a comfortable spot and get lots of pets, belly scratches, and a companion. While you are gone, you will receive daily updates through messages & pictures of how your pets are doing. If your pets require any special treatment, it will be followed thoroughly
