“Such an amazing dog walker! My dog absolutely LOVES her. She’s always on time, caring, and attentive with our pup. We feel so lucky to have found her. I couldn’t recommend her more!”

About: • Over 10 years of personal pet ownership, including dogs of all sizes and temperaments • Comfortable walking multiple dogs at once • Experienced with leash training and basic commands • Familiar with common dog body language and behavior cues • Strong understanding of different breed needs and activity levels • Careful with leash control in high-traffic areas and around other animals • Consistent with feeding routines and water breaks post-walk • Regular photo updates and detailed walk reports • Experience working with children and dogs together • Passionate about treating every pet like family I’m available Monday-Friday during the daytime hours for dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet care. Whether your pup needs a quick potty break or a long adventure walk, I can be flexible to fit your schedule. I have weekend availability during the summer. Mornings, afternoons, and early evenings are all open! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize creating a calm, familiar environment where your pet feels safe and comfortable. I always follow your specific instructions regarding feeding, walking routes, crate routines, and any behavioral needs. I ensure doors and gates are secure before and after every walk, and I never leave pets unattended in unsafe areas. I take time to build trust with each pet by moving at their pace, offering positive reinforcement, and paying close attention to their cues. Whether your dog is high-energy or more reserved, I adapt my approach to make sure they feel relaxed and cared for. Your pet’s safety and well-being are always my top priorities.
About: I have two dogs myself, a German shepherd and Manchester terrier. I have always been around and have had dogs my entire life, big and small. I know how to discipline dogs in a way that won’t hurt them, but in a way they learn and improve their behavior. I even have experience with puppies and senior care. I have never met a dog that doesn’t love me! All I have that takes up my schedule right now is school. Tuesdays and Thursdays I am free all day. Mondays and Friday’s I’m only busy from 11-3 Wednesdays I am busy all day Saturdays and Sundays I am free all day I always prioritize the dogs safety, second is their joy. My German shepherd could play ball for hours and I always grant his wish. I love walks just as much as dogs, I always appreciate doing 5 miles with a buddy! Every dog gets tons of love and affection from me. Let’s just say at a party, you’ll find me with the animals.
“Thank you Demi for walking Barkley. Your patience was much appreciated as Barkley was getting use to us being away. Thank you for being accommodating and adapting to Barkley’s needs even when the weather was not cooperating. We will definitely hire you again to walk Barkley.”

About: I have decades of experience with both cats and dogs! I have a reactive/senior dog that I have had since he was a puppy. He also suffered from severe separation anxiety, that I had to help him with when we first got him. I rescued him from the Humane Society. I have had training with him, to help give him his best life. I have experience with both dogs and cats, from puppy/kitten to senior age and every age in between. I do have basic pet training skills, including leash training, as well. I also can administer oral medication when needed for dogs. I have experience with dogs with special needs, such as, blindness and special dietary needs. I have experience with active/herding dogs as well. My senior dog Willow, was a boarder/lab. She recently crossed over the rainbow bridge. She was over 13. She was a very active girl. I also have 2 grand dogs. A 4 year old male Great Dane/hound and a 1 1/2 year old male Australian shepherd. I take care of them from time to time when my family needs me too. I also have several clients that I regularly take care of their pets while they’re either at work or away on vacation. I offer several types of services for your pets. I can do drop ins/potty breaks, walks/playtime or overnight stays when you’re away or on vacation. I also provide photos/videos, so that you can see how much fun your fur baby is having while you’re away! I do have experience with multiple dogs/cats households. I look forward to meeting you and your pet(s) and helping to provide caregiving services for your pet! I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I am available most days with notice ahead of time. On occasion, I can do non-scheduled pet care times as well. When caring for your pet in your home, I will follow your instructions for your pets needs. We can discuss how much time your pet can be left alone, as well as, if they need to be crated while left alone. If I am taking care of your pet while you’re away for overnight stays, I will generally check on your pet every 4 to 5 hours unless noted otherwise.
About: With 10 years of experience caring for dogs, I'm passionate about keeping them happy and active with fun walks. I also have experience managing multiple dogs on walks. I’m currently in summer break so I have more free time than usual and I always wake up early to take my own dogs out. I always take my dogs out 3 times a day morning, evening and night. As well as giving them ample food and water in the mornings and evenings. And of course we can talk more about how I can better take care of your pup.
About: Every neighborhood ive lived in neighbors have come to rely on me to treat their pets as well as i would take care of my own family. I love any and all breeds and people call me the dog whisperer haha but joking aside i truly love these animals and would love to car for yours. I make sure that they feel comfortable get exercise and have ample bathroom breaks the same way i treat my own 3 fur babies at home. Any regiment you want me to follow i will follow to a T. and the best part is there is no breed too big; if you know me the bigger the head the bigger the love haha. But my small babies are always just as important. I am currently a stay at home mom so school hours are wide open and despite a few week day evenings being booked, overnights are highly available. In my home we have a fenced in backyard and 3 dogs who all have their own amenities including bowls, beds, toys, cages, and the more. My dogs are family to the fullest and are treated as such. it fits in between kids activities, errands, and school. It allows me to be flexible in what is needed. I just love meeting new fur babies ! My three dogs spend a lot of time inside it is just what is comfortable for them. I also have a fenced in backyard that they do enjoy.
“Lauren has been walking my newly adopted dog for a couple of weeks of now and it really puts my mind at ease when I have longer work days. She works with me on arrival time and I always get a report card ! I trust Lauren coming into my home and I am very pleased!!”

“Kimberly is so so sweet and makes sure that my two dogs are well taken care of. She always updates me on when she is going over to take care of them, what they did while she was with them, and always provides cute pictures of them! She is very responsive and professional, I would definitely recommend using her!”

About: Hello! I’ve taken care of family, friends, and co workers pets. I love working with dogs and have taken care of them for 10 years. I work on most week days as a rehab aide, however I have plenty of time on weekends. I love animals specifically dogs and I always make time to make sure my animals are cared for. I live by a park and love taking them on walks during free time. I have a big yard and 2 pet friendly dogs, if your dogs don’t do good with mine I can easily move my dogs somewhere else. I love going on walks so if able your dog will be outside playing around !
About: Hello! Thanks for taking the time to read my profile. My name is Aly, and I absolutely love animals. Every animal has its own unique personality, which makes spending time with them so rewarding and fun. Pet care has given me the opportunity to earn extra income, meet wonderful people, and spend time with some truly amazing animals. Along the way, I’ve also learned so many interesting things I never would’ve thought to look up myself. (Fun fact: Greyhounds don’t fully sit flat — they sort of hover! 🔎💻) I have roughly 15 years of professional pet-sitting experience, along with a lifetime of caring for family pets. I’m experienced with: • Dogs (puppies to seniors) • Cats (kittens to seniors) • Chickens & roosters • Pigs (farm pigs & mini pigs) • Fish (bettas, goldfish, koi, and tropical fish) • Horses • Chinchillas • Guinea pigs & hamsters • Rabbits • Turtles • Ferrets • Hedgehogs • Corn snakes • Reptiles, geckos, & lizards I’m always happy to learn and add more furry, feathered, or scaled friends to that list. Thank you for considering me to care for your pets! Monday through Friday, I work a 6-8-hour shift, but I schedule pet sitting and house sitting around my work hours & leave to ensure pets still receive plenty of care and attention. My greatest availability for full- time in house is: • Weekends & holidays • Monday–Friday: Midnight- 6:00 AM and 4:00 PM–Midnight. I will always do my best to accommodate each pet’s routine and needs while providing reliable, attentive care. I have a checklist that I review with pet owners to ensure we cover everything as thoroughly as possible. This includes bathroom schedules, allergies, medications, the type of fencing or yard setup they have, whether pets are allowed on furniture, and if they are sensitive to thunder or loud noises (primarily so I can monitor them closely during storms or fireworks). I also ask about grooming needs, any injuries or hotspots to watch for, veterinary contact information, and the nearest emergency vet in your area. While I’ve never had to take a pet I was caring for to an emergency vet, I believe it’s important to have that information readily available in case treatment ever becomes necessary. We’ll also discuss any limitations they may have, as well as whether they’re allowed to go on rides, walks, swimming outings, or even enjoy the occasional pup cup 🩶 I also like to review each pet’s daily routine and preferences with owners to help keep their care as consistent and comfortable as possible while you’re away. I’ll ask about feeding schedules, potty breaks, medications, sleeping arrangements, favorite activities, and any behaviors or sensitivities I should be aware of. My goal is for every pet to feel safe, loved, and stress-free in my care while giving owners peace of mind knowing their pets are being treated like family.
About: I am just an average grandma who works a little bit and needs fur babies to be able to hug on and squeeze. Let's be friends Right now I work as waitress who likes to keep busy and I travel to much to get a pet of my own right now.so I can love on yours.' All pets will be loved no matter what house they are staying at. Just as long as there is food water shelter and lots of love.
