About: Reliable and caring pet sitter with a natural love for animals. Attentive to each pet’s unique needs, providing a safe, comfortable, and engaging environment while owners are away. Experienced with dogs, cats, and small animals—treats every pet like family. I have experience with special needs, and senior pets, as well as potty training puppies. When I meet with family, questions are answered in order to arrange the best schedule for you and your pet. Currently pet sitting is my full-time position, which allows flexibility to keep your fur baby as close to their usual schedule. When caring for a pet in their home, I do my best to keep the same routine and care that the parents keep. Ongoing communication, learning about each individual animals personality, likes and dislikes, and any medical concerns are important to make sure your pet is getting the best care and you have piece of mind while you're away.
About: 🐾 Hi, I’m Shermida—and caring for dogs isn’t just what I do, it’s what I love. With over 14 years of experience, I’ve looked after dogs of all breeds and personalities, providing everything from daily walks and feedings to baths, vet visits, and grooming support. Friends, neighbors, and family have long trusted me to treat their pets like my own. Growing up in a home full of animals, I learned early on how to connect with pets and understand their unique needs. Whether your dog is energetic, shy, senior, or somewhere in between, I offer personalized care that’s both compassionate and reliable. My mission is to make life easier for pet owners while keeping their furry companions happy, healthy, and safe. I’d be honored to be part of your dog’s care team! I work from home, so your pet will always have someone nearby to look after them. I’m available throughout the day to check in, take them for walks, and make sure they’re well-fed and comfortable. Your pet’s routine and well-being are my top priorities Safety and fun go hand in hand here.I keep a close eye on pets to make sure they’re not playing too rough, eating something they shouldn’t, or trying to escape. I’ve got a large, fully fenced-in yard where your pet can run, play, and explore freely—always under watchful supervision. It’s a safe space where pets can enjoy themselves while staying protected.
About: Growing up I always had dogs (and cats) which made me an avid animal lover from horses to dogs to cats. I have owned several dogs throughout my adult life. I currently own three dogs ( Sputnik, Newt, Ares) and love them more than anything. I work at the zoo with other avid animal lovers. Sea turtles and otters are my favorite btw. I've worked at a doggy day care and have volunteered my time at shelters and other zoos. I'll give you a full report after every visit with your fur kid. I can administer medications if needed. I'm used to all kinds of activity levels. I can accommodate seniors, hyper active and everything in between. I look forward to meeting you and your fur kids! I'm currently working part time, so I'll have plenty of time playing with your pups. I can easily stop in before work and spend some time with them and even longer after work. I am used to dogs that are escape artists, so your dogs will. always be safe and secure with me. I can easily read a dogs body language so nothing is unexpected.

I'm currently working from home, so I will have plenty of time to play with babies and give them all the love they need. I am available weekdays, weekends, evenings and Holidays. I live on 10 acres of land that has about a 50x50 fenced in yard for the dogs to run and play. I also have lots of space to walk and play with them. I live on a dirt road with very little traffic, so your babies are safe and will have lots of room and fun!!! When your babies are in the house, they are able to do just as you let them do at home. I do separate everyone when they are eating (that way there is no one eating someone else's food. Everyone comes in and sleeps at night. I also have an ADT system on my home so if I am out they are safely put in the house behind locked doors with an alarm system on. When they are outside, I have a camera on the fenced where the pups can be watched from my phone.

About: We’ve had our puppy since he was 8 weeks old! We’ve potty trained him and taught him to do basic skills and to be very obedient. He could run outside and come back immediately when we call if he gets out. I am a stay at home mom. We have a 3 year old German shepherd that is low maintenance so plenty of time to help other furry friends. Also open to bringing him along for play dates, he is super friendly! We are working on a fence but for now either let our dog out the back yard to potty or play with our supervision or place him on the lead for short periods of time. He runs freely inside and has food/water in bowl at all times during the day.

About: I have 25 years of experience as a pet sitter being self-dubbed the "overnight queen" as I specialize in overnight stays of any length. The dogs and I have FUN slumber parties during which I fully engage with and interact with them, playing with their toys and giving the most excellent tummy rubs imaginable! Owners are happy too as they return to a happy pet - dogs "tell" by their behavior and in over 500 pet sits, every dog has been safe, sound ... and happy! In fact, many owners say I did a great job because "my dog acted like it didn't even know I was away!" All dogs love me ... and I love them. Dogs are people, too - only better ! I am self-employed so can set my schedule, especially with as much advance notice as possible. I often bring my little 9 pound, Shih Tzu, which I keep and a carry crate and kennel that has worked out fine with both dogs and cats. We can arrange a meet and greet ahead of time to make sure everyone is comfortable. I have separate bedrooms if dogs need their own privacy, but I do try to have dogs interact and be friends. I have a long hallway to play fun games and go get it!

About: My first job was at a German Shepherd training facility when I was 16. I was responsible for bathing, feeding, exercising, and playing with the dogs! I was one of their main caretaker for a couple years. I was also the primary puppy trainer at the facility. I’ve also had dogs of my own my entire life—big and small, and I absolutely adore dogs and love working with them.

I’m currently looking for work, so I have plenty of free time to walk or watch your pets! I would really like to be a full time dog walker for a while.

About: I have always enjoyed the company of animals, growing up with a rotating cast of cats, dogs, rabbits, chickens, and reptiles. My current dog is an elderly mixed-breed who is staying at a retirement home (my parent's house) due to pet restrictions at my residence. However, I have years of previous experience as her primary caregiver. I have also ocassionally helped friends and relatives with pet care and house sitting. I would be happy to take on any pet care jobs - young or old, friendly or cold. I am a very active person, so I would be thrilled to take high-energy dogs for long walks, hikes, or runs. I recently graduated with a master's degree and am taking a few months off work while searching for a job in my field of environmental science, so I currently have a very flexible schedule. I am currently unable to host pets in my own residence, but I am open to short and long term house sitting in your residence. I will strive to not only take excellent care of your pets, but also to provide them with lots of love, attention, playful activity, and exercise (depending on the individual pet's needs and wants).
“Jaidyn was absolutely wonderful! She was so sweet and loving with our fur babies and even walked them extra time! We have a little escape artist on our hands, so extra restraints are required on one of their houses and she accommodated the extra request with ease and precision. She even sent lots of pictures so we could see that they were very happy! We will definitely be calling Jaidyn again in the future! Thank you so much for loving them in our absence ❤️”
