About: I like dogs more than I like people. Lol. I’ve had dogs in my life since I was born and I adopted my own fur babies. :) I am available most days and can be available for overnights. I am sure that I can make it work! I go out of my way to make sure that all animals are safe and happy. If you have other animals in the house that need to be taken care of I would be more than happy to give them all the lovings as well. I am flexible and open for anything, all you have to do is ask. I hope that I have the opportunity to meet your perfect doggies and kitties in the near future! Pet care is something I am available for all summer and part time in the fall, winter, and spring. I love caring for animals no matter whose they are. I have a fenced yard and 2 friendly dogs that will keep your fur babies company while you are away. I can easily crate your dog or take them on a walk if needed. I currently have a coaching job and stay home with my kids in the mornings so I am pretty flexible. Otherwise, I constantly take care of my own fur babies at home too. I make sure the pets feel safe by moving slowly and giving lots of pets if that’s what they enjoy. I also will keep your house tidy during my stay!

About: I have experience handling high energy pups, elderly dogs, shy cats, etc. I grew up with two dogs and five cats! I know how important routine is, and I strictly follow all feeding, potty, and leash walking instructions. I offer flexible pet care throughout the week, including early morning, afternoon, and evening visits. I am also available for at-home sitting and overnight care. This means I can stay at your home to keep your pets safe, happy, and comfortable in their own environment through the night. Message me to coordinate exact times and dates! I have been surrounded by animals my entire life. I grew up in a lively household with five cats and family dogs, and I currently own two rescue cats. This background allows me to confidently manage multi-pet dynamics, different energy levels, and unique personalities. Safety and comfort are my top priorities, especially during at home sitting and overnight care. I treat your home with the utmost respect, keeping it tidy and double checking that all doors and gates are securely locked. For dogs, they will always remain securely on leash during walks. I follow your exact instructions for feeding, routines, and bedtime habits so your pets feel zero stress. I will always send you detailed photo and text updates so you can have complete peace of mind while you are away.

About: I’ve cared for a variety of pets over the years, including dogs of all ages. I have hands-on experience with puppies who need structure and patience, as well as senior dogs who require extra attention, medication, and a gentle touch. Whether it’s going for long walks, playtime, or just providing comfort and companionship, I genuinely love caring for animals and making sure they feel safe and happy. What sets me apart is my attention to detail and calm, caring nature. I treat every pet like they’re my own, taking time to learn their personality. I’m reliable, communicative, and always go the extra mile to make sure both pets and their owners feel comfortable. I fit pet care into my routine during my free time, usually in the mornings and evenings during the week, and more flexible on weekends. I ensure a safe, clean, and pet-friendly environment. I build trust through gentle handling, consistent routines, and lots of affection. I follow specific care instructions and prioritize the pet’s comfort and well-being.
About: We have had the pleasure of owning a small business called "Pet-Inn" and boarded many dogs! Me and my mom took care of others dogs for quite some time and really enjoyed it. This experience helped me become passionate about entrepreneurship as well as working towards a compassionate connection with your pets! I currently have a part-time small business I'm running apart from being a "SAHM" so I will have plenty of time to get to know your beloved pet and get to know them so I can take care of them in the best way I know possible! I have some free time in my schedule, so finding a slot during the week to care for your pet works well for us. I have a now 6-year-old who adores small dogs, cats, and other animals! I am well aware of the responsibilities of pet care, but I want to emphasize that your pet's safety is my top priority.
