About: Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with dogs on a farm, apartment, townhouse, etc. I have experience with many different personalities, energy levels, and breed needs I currently have two dogs of my own, a great pyrenees and a golden retriever. I’ve also worked at a veterinary clinic as a vet tech, gaining additional experiences with animal care, health needs, and proper handling. I beleive no dog should be judged by their breed or put under a general label. I focus on their body language and individual personalities, while still addressing breed needs. I currently am working 32-40 hours a week that gives me a certain level of flexibility to match your schedule. I receive my schedule every Saturday, two weeks posted at a time. I will give full transparency if there are any schedule conflicts. I understand how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet in someone else’s care, they’re your family! My goal is to always make sure both you and your pet few safe, supported, and at ease while you’re away. I do my best to follow your pet’s routing exactly the way you do at home, adjusting to whatever care instructions you prefer. I am also more than happy to provide updates as often as you’d life, whether that’s daily or hourly check-ins, photos, or videos so you can see how your pet is doing. I pay close attention to your pet’s behavior, health, and surroundings, making sure they’re safe and comfortable both inside the home and in outdoor spaces. I keep information on local vets and emergency clinics on my phone. I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I would my own!

About: My name is Charne! I used to have an English black lab who became my service baby and was the sweetest boy on this planet. I always knew I wanted to work with animals growing up. Weather that was rescuing them or just sharing my love with them!! I am certified for wildlife animal rescue as well. I am very active and would love to do outdoor/indoor fun activities with your pets!! I am experienced in special care for pets like medication, injections, wound care, etc. Animals are life and without them where would our hearts be! I’ve always had pets from the age of 0 until now! Growing up I was raised with three dogs, two cats, and always two birds! My parents always told me you can tell a lot about a person on how they treat animals!! I currently live with my Fiancé and we rescued our pup Zeppelin from an abusive home 5 years ago. He has now grown to realize that love does exist, kisses are always wanted, and the couch/bed is the most comfortable place on earth!! He has severe allergies so I have experience in prepping a raw diet to fit his allergy needs! We also have a cat named Sage. She’s my baby and our snuggles are my favorite part of the day! I’d love to share my love & care with other furry friends!! I currently own my own silversmithing business and make jewelry full-time, in my home and on my schedule so my availability is completely open!!! 🥰 I follow instructions to the T!! I understand that every pet has their own individual needs & requirements and those need to be met in order to keep them happy, by sticking to their known schedule! I unfortunately do not allow in home pet setting at my house as our dog was a rescue and we are still not comfortable him being around other animals for longer than an hour as his patience can run out. For the safety of our pets, I’m more than happy to pet sit in your home!! I have years of experience with different pups, volunteering at rescues and rescuing animals myself, so their safety and care will always be my top priority! Also giving unlimited love :))

About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 7 years, and it’s something I genuinely love. I have experience with dogs of all sizes from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need extra care and attention.

I’m calm, dependable, and attentive to each pet’s needs making sure they get the right balance of exercise, playtime, and rest throughout the day. Pets stay in a clean, cozy, and pet-friendly space with plenty of room to relax or play, including a fully fenced yard where they can safely explore and enjoy the outdoors. There’s always someone home even if I need to step out briefly, my mom or my boyfriend, who are both equally experienced and caring with pets, are always around to help. I usually introduce them during meet and greets so everyone feels comfortable and at ease

About: I have pet-sat since I was in high school, and I have become a reliable person to care for friends' and co-workers' pets. I have pet-sit overnight many times and have cared for young and older cats and dogs. I'm a teacher, so I am currently off for the summer. I have PT 2-3 times a week and have a vacation planned in July. I can do mornings/afternoons/evenings depending on the day. A few of the dogs I cared for had an electric fence or a fenced in back yard. I have a fenced in backyard at my home and have let the family pet (who belongs to my parents) play in the area. I have taken the family pet for walks around the neighborhood, and am willing to do so, if needed. My home is also an open space, making it a safe and comfortable area for pets to enjoy.
About: I have been pet sitting and house sitting for 1+ days at a time for about 11 years. I treat every home with respect and all pets as my own. I love bonding with and meeting new animals! Each family I've sat for has called me back to sit for them again! Additionally, I have met many new doggos when babysitting in new family's homes. I always treat the pets just as well as the kiddos, giving them lots of love and behind the ear scratches. My family has always had dogs and I've loved dogs of all breeds since I was a little girl. I am a full time speech-language pathologist during the school year, but have flexibility in my schedule and I’m working from home half of the week. I am available for am/pm/afternoon drop in/walk visits and some weekends depending on location and dates. In your home I am comfortable and confident in my abilities taking your dogs out for walks on leashes, or leaving them out in the backyard to get some movement. I can stay and play for a while as needed to give them attention. I have a loving pit-mix at home. If our dogs got along we could potentially plan on having your pet come stay with us for a week/weekend! Additionally, we do have enough space (2 level home), a crate, and a fenced in yard so we can accommodate having another dog who does not get along with other dogs.
