About: I am a lifelong dog enthusiast, currently with 2 dogs of my own. As far back as childhood, I'd was in charge of the afternoon and evening walks for all of our family dogs. Throughout my adult life I have dog sat and walked dogs for friends and family someitmes even for weeks at a time. I've cared for teeny dogs through Newfoundlands and thoroughly enjoy them all! Experienced with reactive dogs and leash pullers. Comfortable with medications and special diets. Comfortable with puppies through elders! I currently work part time as a telehealth Therapist and I am building my case load so I have lots of flexibility to accommodate pet needs. Since I have two dogs of my own and limited space, I will care for clients' pets in their own homes and keep their routines as consistent as I can. I strongly believe consistency is important for dogs, even when their parents are away. I would be happy to set up a phone, in-person, or video meet-and-greet with any pets and caretakers beforehand to go over any pertinent details.

“Paul was just perfect for my needs. He walked my two Welsh Corgi's while I was away. He was always prompt, courteous and considerate. My pups grew to like him a lot, and the walking became and happy for them. My husband, who remained at home during this trip, was very pleased. Thank you Paul!”

About: I've been pet-sitting for over ten years. I've sat for heaps of homes with various pets including dogs, cats, fish, chickens, bunnies, and even joeys! The majority of my housesits have been for households with multiple dogs of varying breeds and needs. I've cared for elderly dogs with mobility and vision impairments, reactive/anxious pups, large and small breeds with ranging energy levels. I'm experienced providing walks/play, administering medication, giving baths and brushes, prepping meals, and obviously providing all the love and attention (as is fit based on the individual pet's personality). In addition to housesits, I have experience volunteering at an animal shelter, fostering pups in South Korea, volunteering with dog and cat rescues abroad, and doing drop-in animal care visits. My focus when sitting is assuring pets feel safe and loved while away from their loved ones. I understand separation can be difficult for both pets and owners. I'm keen to provide regular updates and photos of desired, and make time apart as cruisy and comfortable as possible. I am flexible with availability. I'm currently living at home with heaps of free-time, so I'm open to working with a schedule that'd work best for you whether it be full time, part time, or a one time position. I provide compassionate care suited to each individual pet. I'm happy to learn about your dog's likes and needs, and keen to send updates during visits.

About: I've been caring for animals for 20 years....I will love your pet like my own. they are all like family to me! I wont let you down! I'm free to do this any time of day. I am fully available to fit around your schedule. your babies will be in great care I have a big yard, and plenty of room for the furry friends to play. they will be cared for and happy in my home.

“Kim has been an incredible Dog Walker for us and our pooch, Rory! She's beyond helpful, punctual, and on the rare occasion has provided us important feedback when our dog has been less than cooperative. She's incredibly kind and not only does our dog love Kim, but Kim loves our dog as well. She gives her a great workout every time we use her and in a pinch when we've needed more help, Kim has been there every time to help us out! She's been a Godsend!”

About: I have experience caring for a variety of pets, including dogs and cats. My responsibilities have included feeding, providing fresh water, walking dogs, cleaning litter boxes and living areas, administering medications when needed, and ensuring pets receive plenty of exercise, attention, and affection. I am attentive to each pet's individual needs and prioritize their safety, comfort, and well-being. I am reliable, patient, and committed to providing loving, responsible care while owners are away. I’m currently unemployed while my children are in daycare and after school programs. Outside of appointments I’m free spending time with my cats and my females kittens I currently have 2 black cats. My female whom I rescued recently was pregnant and had 6 babies(3 weeks old) I’ve also had dogs and cats in my past. I love animals. My home is clean and organized.

About: As a lifelong animal lover with a calm, attentive nature, I treat every pet like my own—giving them personalized care, patience, and affection. What sets me apart is my ability to quickly build trust with both pets and their owners, creating a stress-free experience for everyone. Whether it's playtime, walks, or quiet companionship, I adapt to each pet's unique personality and needs to ensure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away I have open availability as I’m taking a gap semester off of college. Therefore pet care would take up a good amount of my daily routine. I treat every client’s home with the utmost respect, just as I would my own. I make sure to follow any specific instructions given, keep spaces clean and organized, and maintain a quiet, calm environment for your pet

About: I have had dogs my whole life. I have two adult dogs now with my wife that I have raised since they were puppies. I have experience with rescue dogs also. I currently have a flexible schedule, so I have a full day available to help with all of your pet’s needs. I am available during the week and weekend. I can take them for walks, outdoor breaks, and playtime whenever needed. I am great at staying on an animal’s schedule and can be available to help at any time! I take your pet’s needs and happiness seriously.

About: I have taken care of dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments since I was 18. Now working in the medical side, I am able to make sure pets get their medications (including insulin) appropriately. I am mostly able to care for pets during the weekends or at nights. My work schedule at the veterinarian keeps me busy during the weekdays. I am unfortunately not able to offer pet care at my personal home. I am more than willing to travel to a clients house to care for their pets in their most comfortable environment.

“Jen was absolutely amazing. I was a dunce and forgot I had my old address in my profile and she was gracious enough to come to our actual place to still complete the walk even though she had arrived at my old place already. My dog is reactive to other dogs while on leash and I witnessed first hand how well she handled her while seeing another dog. I’m looking forward to using her services regularly!!”

“Thank you so much Mai! You helped out and loved on my boy last minute when I was in a pinch! The pics and updates were so much appreciated and helped me to feel some relief of anxiousness of leaving Linus with a stranger! He was happy when I returned so I know he felt cared for! We will be reaching out again!”

Currently part time, my availability is Sunday, Monday and Thursday. Hours can be interchangeable; never be afraid to ask :). Completely free those days to be attentive to your pets. I’ve had dogs all my life. I know how to play with animals for maximum exercise, can follow dietary instructions and have a deep rooted love for all species. Dogs are the babies in my home and receive the utmost care and love. Never worry about other dogs in the home or mistreatment from others.

“Dominique was an amazing dog walker! She was communicative, always answering questions promptly and showing up on time. Chester, our poodle loved her and the walks she provided. I highly recommend Dominique!”

About: I have had lots of different types of animal experiences since I was a child including always having a cat in the household and volunteering with animal shelters. My specialty is cats but I have a few years experience with sitting and walking dogs as well. I am always up for a new challenge and am very capable and adaptable. I have worked in many animal shelters, as well as managed a cat shelter and a cat cafe, so I am very comfortable approaching all animals. I also currently work at a traveling pet vaccine clinic and am going back to school to be a vet tech! I have a very flexible schedule because I run my own cat oriented business and make my own hours. My whole life is animals, so I love to fit them into my life as much as possible. I currently only offer services in my clients’ homes, and to ensure that their pets are always safe and secure, I am very on top of communication and checking in with my pet parents. I like to review all instructions together to make sure I don’t have any questions and know exactly what contacts are (vet, ER, friends) for emergencies. I always respect other people’s space and will leave things exactly as I left them, if not better. Letting someone into your home to take care of your fur family requires a lot of trust and I feel honored when someone allows me that privilege.

About: I have been dog-sitting since I was 13 years old for neighbors, family members, and coworkers. Even after being at my work for a few weeks, my coworkers trusted me to stay at their homes for a week at a time watching their dogs. During these times I would walk, feed, and bathe their dogs. I have a flexible schedule that makes it easy to fit pet care into my routine. I work from home on Mondays and Fridays, so I’m available throughout the day for walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention. On weekends, I’m generally very flexible and can dedicate plenty of time to making sure your pet feels comfortable, cared for, and loved while you’re away. I live near Central Park and the west side highway as well as other dog friendly area. II always follow each pet’s normal routine and their owner’s instructions, including feeding, walks, playtime, and lots of attention. My home is kept very clean and tidy, with plenty of space for pets to feel comfortable and safe. I’m also happy to send photos and updates along the way!

“Caitlyn was Excellent!! She treated my dogs like her own and went above and beyond ! We will definitely be using her again.”

About: I have had pets since I can remember, so I understand that they really are family. I promise to give your pet the same love and care that I have always given my own! I work from home, so I have plenty of flexibility to care for your pet during the workday. I take my dog for a walk in the morning, and then periodic potty breaks throughout the day. I have a large fenced in yard with plenty of space to run and play, or maybe just lounge. I also have plenty of toys (and treats) available!
