Pet Sitting Fairmount

About: I've lived with and cared for dogs my entire life. As an adult, I fell in love with cats as well (just never got the exposure when I was younger). At present, I currently live with with four cats and one dog. For work, I have retired from finance to now work for my family business doing handyman and maid work around multiple Airbnb locations in town. In my spare time, I visit my brother with his three cats and two dogs. I have also started volunteering at the local humane society to give needy animals some additional love, support, and attention. With my extra time, I'm making myself available to help take care of even more cats, dogs, and homes than I already have been! I am self employed with the flexibility to start helping other people out. Some days I need to turn over a house cleaning mid-day as my family manages several houses for rentals - otherwise I am generally available! I have a large fenced in yard (4' chain link fence in some areas). I have four cats that are indoor/outdoor that keep to themselves and one very friendly, social dog. There is also a large, mostly unfinished basement with multiple rooms/areas with gates available throughout the house. The yard also has a smaller dog run if there ever needs to be two outside play areas.

About: I’ve been dog and cat sitting for friends, neighbors, and strangers for years now and have many recommendations from playing fetch, going on runs/walks, TLC, giving medicine to animals, multiple drop ins a day. I am allergic to cats but as long as I know in advance to prep with some allergy relief, I will be okay! Can’t wait to meet your fur babies! I’m currently working part time. I have a very flexible schedule to stay and play or a quick drop in to feed and let your pet out. I’m very respectful and will treat your fur baby like my own. If they need a play partner, my dog loves to play fetch and chase in circles-she can run sprints for an hour straight if we need any energy to get out!

“Thanks again for taking care of Blue!”

“We were gone for almost 2 weeks and didn’t ever have to worry about our 4 cats. Chandler kept us updated and was excited to care for the cats, his attention to detail was incredible. Would absolutely recommend!”

About: I used to be a military police dog handler for a long time so I have great experience with dogs. I am a person who genuinely cares about animals. Ever since I was little I’ve had a dog there for me in my life. I treat every animal with care and respect! Your dog will be in great hands when booked with me! Right now I am on leave for quite a while so everyday any day will work for me. I will be around the dog 24/7 and make sure they are happy and taken great care of. I have a fenced back yard and a fenced play area in the basement where dogs can run around and play without getting too hot because outside in the hot sun all day.

About: I have loved animals for as long as I can remember, and caring for them is a true passion of mine. I live with my dog and two cats, so my home is already filled with plenty of love, pet-friendly energy, and experience across both canine and feline personalities. Whether your pet loves going on long outdoor walks, playing games in the yard, or just chilling out on the couch for some belly rubs, I treat every animal in my care as if they were my own. I live in a nice, quiet, pet-friendly area with easy access to neighborhood walking routes and dog parks for playtime. When you leave your pet with me, you can have complete peace of mind knowing they are in a safe, stable, warm, and loving environment with someone who is truly dedicated to their comfort and happiness. As a teacher, my schedule is predictable and routine, which means my evenings and weekends are wide open and completely dedicated to spending quality time with the pets in my care. Since I am home during those times, your pet will have constant companionship, structured routine, and plenty of attention when they need it most. Whether it's an evening stroll, a weekend trip to the dog park, or just relaxing on the couch together, my routine gives me plenty of dedicated focus for your furry family member. Safety, comfort, and keeping your home environment stable are my top priorities. Because I already have a dog and two cats, my preference is to care for your pets directly in their own home. Overnight in-home sitting or drop-in visits allow your furry family members to stay in their familiar, comfortable surroundings with their normal routines completely uninterrupted. I know how important a calm, safe environment is for pets, and staying in their own space eliminates the stress of introducing them to a new territory or other animals. Whenever I am on walks or taking your dog out to local trails or parks, safety remains paramount. I always keep pets securely leashed during outdoor transitions and supervise every outdoor interaction closely to ensure a safe, fun, and reliable experience.

“Courtney has done an amazing job watching all of our big and small babies (3 large dogs and 2 cats) two times now! Definitely will be sticking with her in the future!”

“Briley was very good with our dog. Our dog gets very nervous with new people and Briley was able to get her outside to play. Briley came at the times we discussed, sent pics and gave good follow-up after her visits!!!”

“Skylar was AWESOME. Our two dogs and two cats had a great time despite their normally shy demeanors. Everyone had a great time and we were able to enjoy or vacation knowing the dogs were happy at home.”

About: I raised my first dog to a healthy, ripe 17 years of age. My new pup is a rescue and I have helped her become an obedient (mostly), well-mannered good girl. We take walks everyday, even when it’s cold. I have patient and a calm demeanor which I believe most dogs need when interacting with a new person. I work during the day M-F most of the time. I am free in the evenings and on weekends. Currently working part time so my schedule is a bit more open. I have an energetic puppy that loves to run around at the dog park at my apartment complex. I typically crate my dog when I’m not home. Okay with having dogs free at client’s house if that what the pup is most comfortable with.

“Amanda was very communicative and willing to work with us and our dog. She went above and beyond trying to make sure our dog was able to go to the bathroom, which even cost her an extra trip. I would definitely recommend her!”

About: Nice to meet you, I'm Kat! I have been working in the pet industry since early 2019 - beginning as a kennel attendant, evolving into a professional dog trainer in two prominent KC training facilities, and now running my own small business. I am thoroughly versed in canine care and communication, and use my expertise to help every dog I care for have a comfortable and positive experience. Not only that, but I am also very knowledgeable in canine enrichment and stimulation. Have a high-energy, high-needs breed? They'll end their days with me happy and tired. A senior dog that has special needs and benefits from therapeutic stretches? Say no more. Puppies are absolutely welcome as well, and I would love to provide them with opportunities to practice socialization, confidence building, and manners. My experience also means that I am able to care for dogs with behavioural issues and special health needs. I know it can be difficult to find care for dogs with "quirks," and I hope to make that search a little easier. Send me a message and we can chat about your dog and if I would be a good fit. I'm looking forward to meeting your pup! ** I do have a part-time job that takes up much of my time on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. This doesn't mean that I'm totally unavailable those days, but we'll need to chat to make sure that my schedule works for your pet. 🙂 The pets I work with are my priority! I want to make sure that my schedule allows me to look after your furry family members' needs. I do work long hours on weekends - but sometimes this can be flexible. We'll have a thorough chat before you book to make sure that your pets will get all of the attention they need and the love they deserve. Dogs, cats, and exotic pets are all welcome 🐶🐱🐍🐹🦜🐠 Your house, your rules! Before the booking, you & I will have a detailed conversation about your pets' schedule, rules, needs, and preferences. I am happy to follow all of that to a T! My job is to keep your pets happy and safe while you are away. With 7 years of pet care experience, I am confident in caring for all of their needs. This includes pets with behavioral concerns and special needs! For walks and other adventures, I will always keep your dog leashed and close to me. I love to take dogs out on excursions to parks, trails, and other such places, but I will always check with you first to make sure that we don't go somewhere your dog doesn't enjoy. Updates will be sent daily, as well as pictures and videos. I look forward to meeting your furry friends. (Scaled or feathered friends welcome, too!)

About: I have had dogs since I was young and I learned how to train puppies/dogs from my father. I am very friendly and loving with dogs, but authoritative as well when needed. I can trim your dogs nails as well as bathe/groom them. I communicate well about concerns and updates regarding an owners pet. Daily activities with your animal is what I love; whether that’s walking, going to the park, or playing in the yard. I have had to take out puppies throughout the night to potty train as well. I am able to take care of your animals anytime for general activities or pet care. I am available to house sit your dog while you are away. It’s possible to board a dog at my house during the day or even overnight, but only small/medium dogs because I own so many animals already and there’s not a lot of space for large dogs. I can come to your home and do anything you would like for your doggo; whether that’s playing in the yard, going for a walk, feeding, going out to go potty, or even light grooming. I can clean after your animal to ensure there’s no messes in your home. At my house I have a fenced in yard in a safe neighborhood with two friendly dogs of my own to play and keep each other occupied. There is a sidewalk all throughout my neighborhood perfect for daily walks.

“Marianne was absolutely delightful at our meet and greet, and the gang 🐾 loved her from the start! The pics each visit felt very personal, and I knew my babies were in good hands!”

About: I have been a dog owner since I was a child and I’ve been walking dogs for friends and family. Since I was about 15. I treat every animals as if it’s my own and give them all the love and respect that you would want when someone is in the care of your animals Working part-time gives me a flexible schedule, which makes pet care a great fit for my daily and weekly routine. I’m able to plan walks, drop-ins, and playtime around my work schedule while still having plenty of availability during the day. I love having the opportunity to stay active, spend time with animals, and give pet parents peace of mind knowing their pets are getting the attention and care they deserve. I can access MILITARY BASE !!!! I take caring for animals seriously and treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether I’m caring for a pet in my home or visiting them in their home, I focus on making sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for. My home has a fenced-in yard, giving dogs a safe space to enjoy some outdoor time and play. I’m also happy to follow each pet’s individual routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and any special instructions. My goal is to give both pets and their owners peace of mind while they’re apart.
