About: I've been taking care of dogs for probably 20 years. From puppies to my senior boy I have now. I'm experienced in giving oral medications and am capable of following instructions if your pet has a more complex feeding process I'm working part time and with summer coming will have more free time with school being out. I do have two kids so I couldn't do all day pet care but I am able to fit other services into my schedule. I never leave pets outside unattended or unsupervised in a home. I am very diligent about making sure anything harmful to a pet us put away where they cannot access it and I'm always inspecting toys to make sure they are still safe for play.
About: I am responsible, respectful, and reliable. I have taken care of pets for as long as I can remember. I’m not going to let you down. I am semi retired and available most days. I do have some physical limitations, but we can address them as needed if that would be an issue. I can just let them out and check for food and water, I can take them for a walk, and I can work with special needs. The idea is that you feel comfortable knowing that you’re pet is safe and happy.
“Caitlin was a fantastic cat sitter!!! She sent me daily updates and pictures which was so fun to see while I was out of town. She is clearly an animal lover and I totally trust her with my cats. She’s friendly, professional and did exactly what I asked her to do care wise… It gave me tremendous peace of mind to know the animals were well cared for!”
About: I have always lived with dogs and absolutely love caring for furry friends! I've dog sat many different dogs and am very quick to make them the highlight of my attention when I'm with them! I am a very active person--love to take dogs for walks, hikes, and trips to dog parks if that's what they love. My space is super dog friendly, clean, and open for a great stay. I love to get to know dogs and their personalities. I've cared for all sized dogs and of many different breeds and have never met a dog that I didn't like. My dogs are super dog friendly. Millie can be shy at first and Zoe is great at adjusting her activity to what other dogs want! I am currently working part time and in an online masters program, so I have a lot of time to devote to pups and can provide a lot of interaction with them. I pay a lot of attention to dogs, especially when they are in a new place. I fostered for about 3 years before adopting our current dogs. I’ve had a lot of experience caring for dogs in different scenarios.
About: Hi there, I ever since I was a kid I've loved animals. As a child I joined 4-H with my dog by my side. I currently have a dog, a cat and a betta fish. But at one point in my childhood we had 4 dogs and 3 cats if you can believe it! I have plenty of experience taking care of pets. You won't have to worry about your furry friends with me. I'm currently working from home so my schedule is pretty flexible for me to take care of your pets. I own my own business has a wedding planner. I like to have a schedule when it comes to pet care. My cat and dog are on a feeding schedule at home and we have consistent potty breaks for my dog.
About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for all animals, combined with a commitment to providing personalized care. I understand that each pet has unique needs and preferences, so I take the time to build a bond with them, ensuring they feel safe and comfortable during my visits. Whether it's an energetic dog needing a brisk walk or a shy cat craving gentle attention, I tailor my approach to suit their individual personalities, making me more than just a sitter—I'm a trusted friend. Currently, I'm pursuing a nursing degree in college, which gives me a flexible schedule that I can tailor to fit your pet's needs. Balancing my studies with a part-time job, I'm able to create a schedule that prioritizes the well-being and care of your furry friends. Respecting your home is as important to me as caring for your pets. You can trust that I'll treat your space with the utmost care and consideration, leaving it exactly as I found it. I also offer a unique advantage: my own home is tailored to working with animals, providing a safe and fun environment. My friendly Golden Retriever loves to play and socialize, making your pet feel right at home. Above all, safety is my number one priority, followed closely by respect and responsibility, ensuring peace of mind while you're away.
About: I have experienced every step of Animal Care; from my first childhood dog birthing a litter of pups, to end-of-life care more recently with my family dog. Let me know what makes your critter happy, and know that your pooch is in loving, warm hands. I have cared for dogs 3/4s of my 35 years on this planet and even moved a dog back acquired internationally off of the streets of Beirut, Lebanon with a previous girlfriend and trained obedience into the street dog, and to be accustomed to a more sedentary American-Style home living. I am currently shifting from a sales career in finance to a tech career, and am spending some quality time with my parents in Appley Valley for a few months outside of Mt. Vernon before I rewire my focus back to an intensive career-oriented work environment. I am holding off on a full-time job and would love to take care of your pet and give them all of my attention and focus whenever you need me, even if it's an emergency. I have no other work engagements currently as I'm taking two months to catch up with my folks while I transition to a new firm. I have a finished basement apartment underneath a 2600 sq ft. ranch, where your animal children are welcome to relax on my furniture and enjoy an acre of wooded land and a 10-minute drive to Bark Park outside of Appley Valley Lake Community. I can travel and my car is dog-friendly if your creature likes to socialize or play at any of the local parks or dog parks. If your pooch needs a Paw-Wash or "the Works" I have a walk-in shower where we can have your puppy smelling "so fresh and so clean" upon returning the critter to your domicile.

About: I have have had animals throughout my whole life. Ranging from chickens, dogs, rabbit and even a few birds. I’ve watched dogs for a month and even just an over night.

I try to stay active and embrace as much of the outdoors as possible in my daily life so dog walking helps me achieve both! I'm cautious of all things around me and prioritize the safety of not only myself but also the animal that is in my care.

15. Nicole W.
“Not only have I known Nicole for 10+ years, but she’s also taken care of our outdoor cats whenever we’ve gone on vacation.

Nicole has always loved animals and will take the time to go above what’s required. She recognizes that besides food, water, and a clean litter box, pets also need love and attention, especially when an owner leaves and the pet becomes distressed. Nicole is prompt, organized, and dependable, and for that, I would absolutely recommend her as a pet caregiver to anyone!”
