About: I have cared for and trained several breeds of dogs throughout my life from pugs to German shorthaired pointers. From walks, to playing, to basic training, I strive to help all dogs I care for lead happy, enriched, fulfilling lives. If your dog has some training needs, I am willing to work with them while they are in my care. I also have experience caring for cats, both indoor and outdoor, and offer drop-in visits to make sure all is well with them while you are out. I am also comfortable with fish, and all manner of farm animals, as I own several myself. I recently graduated university and have an open schedule for the summer. I am open for daycare, walking, and drop ins on weekends and most weekdays upon request. I care for all pets in their own home and am happy to accommodate all levels of needs, including 24/7 supervision if needed. As long as needs are discussed clearly and upfront, I am happy to match the level of care you would provide your own animals.
About: Hi! I'm a passionate animal lover with 2 years of experience caring for dogs and a deep commitment to their happiness and well-being. I’m in the process of learning dog training, which allows me to better understand and connect with your furry babies. Whether it’s feeding, walking, playing, or simply spending quality time with your pup, I treat every dog as if they were my own—offering love, kindness, and plenty of pet hugs. I can’t wait to meet your dog and help them feel happy and loved while you’re away! Caring for animals is a natural part of my day. When I get home from work, the first thing I do is feed my two cats and spend time with them, ensuring they feel loved and cared for. Soon, pet care will become an even bigger part of my daily life as I begin training animals as part of my schooling. This growing commitment reflects my passion for animals and my dedication to their well-being. Whether it’s feeding, playing, or simply being there for them, caring for pets is something I truly enjoy and prioritize every day. When I visit or pet sit in your home, your furry baby will be cared for as if they were my own. I’ll make sure they’re fed on time, given plenty of attention, and kept comfortable in their familiar environment. We’ll enjoy playtime tailored to their personality, whether it’s a game of fetch, tug-of-war, or simply cuddling and keeping them company. For walks, I’ll ensure they get the exercise and fresh air they need while keeping their safety a top priority. My goal is to create a loving and stress-free experience for your pet while you’re away!
About: I have taken care of my neighbors cats and dogs when they have gone on vacation for about 4 years now. I am very responsible and love being around animals. I am currently a student at a university. So I have weekends off and I can stay overnight with pets. I am also free during the week occasionally. I love interacting with pets. I will play with them and make them feel safe when their owner is gone. I will stay with them overnight if need be.

“Andrea and Marcus did an amazing job caring for my fur babies. I received many pictures and was updated on a consistent basis. They both went above and beyond! I highly recommend them!”
“Madison watched our cat Zuma while we went out of town. She did a great job with him. She was timely and communicated very well. We are so happy Zuma was in good hands while we were away. I'd recommend Madison to anyone.”
About: I’m passionate with my care to animals, with a year of experience with my own cat. Dedicated to providing affectionate and personalized attention to pets As a full time student, I have a flexible schedule, offering pet care services during weekdays, evenings, and weekends to accommodate your pawsome pal needs. With dog walking I will do regular walks tailored to you and your dog's preferences. Your home I will do the daily schedule you have planned for your pet (feeding, playtime, and walks). I will make to report any behavioral changes I see.
