About: I love furry friends of all kinds. While I grew up with cats, I have been around dogs of all sizes my whole life and love pets of all kinds! I work a schedule different than most. Because I work nights and weekends - I have some extra time during the day for your furry friends. So while you are busy at your 9-5 you can trust that your pets are taken care of and ready for you to be home :) I am detail oriented and will worry about your pet as if they are my own. I follow directions to a T and will be sure to take good care of your fur family!
“Sooo lucky to have found Rebecca. She has been phenomenal. I know I am leaving my little one in great hands every time I need to travel for work. By little I mean my 110lb baby. I can't say enough great things about Rebecca I was always nervous leaving my little guy with someone since he can be a handful, but I know I don't have to worry about him when I am not around. I am sure you will be just as happy as I am.”
“This is our second time hiring Erica to take care of our furry family and she again did an excellent job. All our pets needs, including a last minute medication request, were all taken care of professionally. We look forward to working with Erica again and really appreciate her professionalism and excellent communication each visit.”
About: I am passionate about keeping my own dog well cared for and in great shape (she gets walked twice a day and we frequently go on long distance hikes together!) and would love to help do the same for your pet. I also know how anxious it often makes my wife and I feel when we have to leave our dog alone at home for extended periods, so if you've ever felt that way yourself and would like to have someone come and visit/check in on them or need a place to board them, I'm there for you! My full-time job is seasonal so for the summer my schedule during the week is quite open for you! Starting in mid-August I'll be available afternoons and evenings for you and your pet! I am happy to play with your dog inside or outside depending on your/their preference, and I can easily match their energy level. I'll administer any treats or food needed per your instructions and make sure your dog feels at ease (and hopefully a little more tired!) when I leave for the day.
About: Hi! I’m Lauren, and I’ve loved and cared for dogs my entire life. I was lucky to have my own dog for 15 wonderful years, and through that experience, I’ve learned the ins and outs of daily care, training, and providing a loving, safe environment. Whether it’s going on long walks, giving belly rubs, or sticking to a pup’s routine, I treat every dog like family. I understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your dog, and I’m here to offer dependable, attentive care when you need it most. I’m currently between jobs, which means I have full availability to dedicate to your pet’s care. I’m home and flexible 24/7, so I can easily accommodate your dog’s schedule—whether that’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or overnight stays. I truly enjoy spending time with animals, so caring for pets is a rewarding and natural part of my daily routine right now. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in yours, I always prioritize their comfort, safety, and routine. I take the time to understand each pet’s needs—whether it’s feeding schedules, exercise, medications, or just extra cuddles. In your home, I make sure to respect your space and keep everything clean and consistent for your pet. In my home, pets get a calm, cozy environment where they’re treated like family. I pay close attention to behavior and body language so I can respond to their needs and help them feel secure and loved.
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs for the last 25+ years! I’m super patient and will always show your dog the love they need. I look forward to meeting your pup. I work from home and my hours are very flexible. I’m available short notice, super flexible, and would love to make a connection to help out with care for your animal. I will love your pet like they are my own! Treats, walks, belly rubs, playtime... I'll be sure to give them whatever they may need.
About: I have had a dog in my life ever since I was a kid, and have loved and cared for them ever since. Always been like family to me. I will treat your dog the same, I assure you. I have volunteered at shelters in the past, as well as working at a doggie day care and have watched dogs on and off again also. Right now we live with an amazing mutt named Leslie who is 7. Right now I am in between things, so I am open to most days, especially sheltering at home as long as your dog is okay hanging with ours. At our home we have 1 dog, with a fenced in yard and walkable, friendly neighborhood. I will definitely spend as much time as I can with them, and do whatever you need. Like I said, I treat dogs like they're my good friends or family.
About: I have my own animals who i absolutely love, I watch my neighbors dog 2 times a week and do feedings and walks. I also watch my friend’s dogs and cats every year for a month. I currently go to college, Mornings during Monday - Thursday are good and anytime after 3 work great with my schedule. On weekends anytime will fit in my schedule. I have a fenced in yard that my Dog gets to play in three times a day. we also go on walks in our neighborhood. My dog gets fed two times a day and plenty of cuddles!
About: I’ve watched dogs and cats ever since I was a kid. I’ve been a pet owner most of my life. I have watched all ages, sizes, and breeds. Since I’m a freelancer, my schedule is extremely flexible. Here to help! Work with big and small dogs and old and young dogs regularly. Let me know ahead of time if you have any special instructions for your pets. Whether it’s a specific dietary restriction or a medication, it’s important I know what I’m getting into before I accept a gig. Open to staying at people’s houses for extended periods if needed. My schedule is flexible due to my freelancer life. I can set routines with your pets if needed. I’m great at following instructions and will make sure to communicate with you updates. Whatever you need, I got you covered. I’ll visit your home and follow whatever routine you provide me for your fur baby. If dogs are allowed to go on adventures, I like taking them to dog parks or petco for a treat. It’s important to make sure your pet is exercised, fed, and ready to nap so when you come home your pup or kitty will be happy to see you.
About: I have had 3 dogs across my lifetime thus far. I adopted my first dog when I was 12. My second by 14 and my most recent at 28. I currently work full time from home. So will have time to do quick lunch drop ins and weekend when I am not traveling for work. My dog link is extremely spoiled. He lives a very privileged lifestyle with endless toys, treats and food. He is loved for and cared for before all others
