About: I started my first dog walking buisness at 10 years old and was only charging my neighbors 10 cents a walk 🤣 obviously since then I have grown and I have spent most of my time around animals. I used to be a professional equestrian and have been taking care of and around horses since I was 6! I've done 4H and i have a little bangle kitty of my own! I would love to work with your availability! I am completely available for overnights and I have a flexible schedule during the day as well! For boarding in house I currently live in a RV on a beautiful property with a river behind it with my kitty oscar. There is a main house where we train and raise dogs! So if your open to that then pet boarding with me would be great for you! I specialize more in overnight stays or pop in visits in my client homes, I understand the stress of worrying about your pets while your away, so I ALWAYS make sure to create a safe and clean environment for pets and YOU when you come home! That way you ALWAYS know everything is being taken care of FOR YOU and your furry friends:)

Megan is amazing! She has such a sweet and sincere way about her that our kitties (and turtle) instantly trusted her. We keep asking her to do one more thing and she was super nice about it. She even did helpful things we didn't ask her to! We would ask her to sit for us again in an instant.

About: Hello! I am a recent college graduate looking for a side hustle, and am an avid animal lover! I have over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I currently live on a farm where I have become knowledgeable in caring for a variety of animals and how to be attentive to individual animal needs. Growing up surrounded by all kinds of pets has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and compassion, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. I am responsible and strive to provide a safe, loving, and calm environment so you can feel confident your pets are happy and well cared for while you’re away! I currently work part-time at an online job. My online job allows me to set my own hours, so I am very flexible and will be available most days of the week. I am unable to bring pets to my own home but am more than willing to drive to your home to take care of your pet! At your home I will make sure to provide your pet with plenty of love and attention, and I will be responsible about tending to your pets needs!

About: Hi, I'm Emilia. ✨👋🏽✨ Thank you for your interest. I am a lifelong animal lover. When I was little I used to rescue animals without owners and bring them to my house until we found them a home that loved them. I have had rabbits, thousands of dachshunds, cats, talking birds, green iguanas and a white mouse that I rescue from being eaten by a snake. Currently I have 3 dogs, Toby is 9 years old, we rescued him from a kennel in Oregon and then we have 2 Argentinean sisters that we brought from Argentina 🥰 they are all sweet and they are trained. I would love to be able to step in and take care of other people's animals. I have been taking care of dogs that weigh from 20 to 100 pounds! I can walk (forest / park / beach), feed, play with your puppies, take him to the vet and give them all the attention and love they need. I am willing to go the extra mile and will attend to your needs. ✨🤍🙌 * All guidelines and rules for your home and for the care of your dog will be followed. Please let me know in detail. ** All dogs / pets will be on a leash for all walks at all times unless otherwise requested *** I will need to know if your puppies cannot be left alone at all and must be with me at all times during longer homestays. Additional charges may apply. *** ALL PRICES AND DETAILS CAN BE DISCUSSED. I am an artistic entrepreneur and my studio is in my house, so my schedule is quite open and adaptable 😉 I am able to check-ups, walks and overnight stays in on your pups on a regular basis. I can work with YOUR schedule! 📅 I am very excited to connect with you and your pets. I have a spacious house, with a large and fenced backyard, your fur babies will have enough space to play. I always like to familiarize myself with the client's home/yard/neighborhood! Especially for the naughty ones! I love taking them on walks on the beach or in the woods. If your dog is trained we can go to the dog park. 🐾 If you want to spend the night, I can also water your plants 🪴 ✨💚

About: 🐾 Reliable Pet Sitting & Walks — Dogs, Cats & Birds Welcome! Hi! I’m a dedicated animal lover offering dog walks and overnight pet sitting. I know how important it is to leave your pets with someone you trust, and I treat every animal in my care like they’re part of my own family. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and personalities—from energetic pups who need long walks to older dogs who prefer a slower pace and extra attention. I focus on keeping pets comfortable by following their normal routines, giving them plenty of exercise, playtime, and affection. I also have experience caring for birds of all kinds, which is something many sitters don’t offer. I’m comfortable helping with feeding schedules, cage care, and making sure your feathered friends stay happy and stress-free while you’re away. During overnight stays, I make sure your pets feel safe and relaxed in their own home while keeping things consistent with their daily routine. I’m attentive, reliable, and always happy to send updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pets are in good hands. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely loves animals and will care for your pets like their own, I’d love to help! Feel free to reach out with any questions—I look forward to meeting you and your pets! 🗓️ Schedule & Availability I currently work Wednesday–Saturday from 2 PM to 11 PM, but I still have availability for pet care depending on your needs. I’m typically available for: • Morning walks and drop-ins before 2 PM • Late-night check-ins after 11 PM • Overnight pet sitting • Sunday–Tuesday availability with a more flexible schedule When doing overnight stays, I make sure pets are fed, exercised, and comfortable before I leave for work and again when I return. I always try to keep their routine as normal as possible so they feel safe and cared for. Feel free to message me with your dates and your pet’s routine, and I’ll do my best to accommodate! 🛡️ Safety, Trust & Environment Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets and your home, and I take that responsibility seriously. I always follow the routine and care instructions you provide, including feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and any special needs your pet may have. I pay close attention to behavior and comfort so pets stay happy and stress-free while you’re away. I’m respectful of your home and make sure everything stays clean, safe, and secure during overnight stays. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pets are being well cared for. My goal is to create a calm, safe environment where your pets feel comfortable and loved until you return home.
