About: Have been a cat lover since I was little. I have always had cats growing up and have come to love seeing all of their different personalities. I know that all cats are not the same and need different things to make them feel comfortable. I will take care of your cats like they are one of my own! I don't have any dogs as pets however when I go to visit friends and family with dogs I spend time with them by letting them get to know me first. They figure out if they want to play or just like to be petted. I have my evenings free during the week and don't work during the weekends so I have free time to take care of your fur baby. During summer I am on summer break my days are free as well. Understand each individual personality and treat them with respect. Make sure to keep them safe and give attention and take care of their daily needs.
“Leilani has quickly become a favorite of ours and clearly our dog, Doc adores her! She’s a great communicator and gets back with us very promptly when we request her help.”
About: I have had dogs & cats most of my adult life. In addition, I am pet sitter for my Grand-doggies. I will treat your pet like family. I am retired from full time employment. I have lots of flexibility in my schedule to help with your pet. I am available with short notice. I will care for your pet in your home by following your instructions. I will respect your home and privacy like I would want to be treated.
“Alexis is awesome! She did a great job with walking my dog Westley. She was very patient with him when he had some anxieties for the first couple of days. By mid-week he was excited when she arrived to pick him up!”
About: I own 2 huskies. I've volunteered with a dog rescue for 8 years fostering all types of dogs... 46 of them in fact. My husband and I have firefighter/EMT schedules so we're often home during the day, and handle emergencies well. We have an irregular schedule in my house. You will have to check my calendar for availability. We are often home during the week and daytime. My care for my dogs and foster dogs depend on the dog. My female dog is a princess who sleeps on the couch, but my male needs to be kenneled to keep out of trouble. We have a dog door to allow our dogs freedom to go in and out as they please.
About: I have had dogs for the past 30 years. I am an approved foster home for a pug rescue. I have rescued several dogs! The last two years, I have been a dog walker! The dog I recently rescued was a client I walked whose mom was disabled. She needed more care than her mom could give her. We bonded from the first walk, and I knew I could be her forever home! I have a blind/deaf pug as well. I do a lot of housesitting and dogsitting it’s always a joy! My home is on an acre. I have my own business out of my home, and so I am home all day and your pet will not be left alone! I am home all day running my health coach business. Pet care will keep me busy and your animal happy..and the resident dogs will love having playmates! I do have a portion of my yard fenced in so the dogs have lots of room to run and play and be dogs. Dogs are rarely crated unless they are used to that and the owner request that they have time in their crate. I am home the majority of the time. I work from home on a part-time basis so I am with the dogs the majority of the time. When the dogs come to my home, it is like they are on their own little vacation. They have a good time playing with the other dogs and go home tired.
About: I have had all sorts of pets since I was a child. I’ve had large and small dogs, cats, rodents, amphibians, and lizards, I even had a pot belly pig, sheep & duck as a child. I even volunteered at a local vet when I was a teenager and gained a lot of hands on experience. I’m a stay at home and I homeschool my two teenage daughters. They absolutely adore animals as well. I feel this will allow me to spend a lot of one on one time with your pet. Your fur baby will be well cared for and interacted with while they’re here! I have a fenced in yard with plenty of space for your fur baby to run! I also have room in my house if they need to be crated at any time.
“Melisha was great with our new puppy Riley that we rescued. Riley loved her and loved the walks. Melisha would send us the cutest pictures of Riley on her walks. I highly recommend her!”
About: My family got our first dog when I was four. Since then I have always had a dog. Right now I have a beagle mix, older chocolate lab, Maltese, and chocolate lab puppy. I have watched both dogs and cats, and have owned a few cats as well. I am free on the weekends, but I can also pop in during the week in the afternoon around two or later. Occasionally before then. I pay close attention to the details of my instructions when I watch pets. I also like to send undated and pictures to the owners.
About: I’m a Registered nurse (emergency medicine) and a certified foster parent of children and dogs. I grew up with dogs and have fostered and rescued dogs from difficult situations. I look forward to taking wonderful care of your dog! I’m currently working as an ER nurse but I have at least 4 days off a week so I’m looking for some extra work on my days off! I have every background clearance possible and I’m medically trained if your dog has special needs. I’m experienced with rescue dogs and elderly dogs with medical problems. My home is perfect for dogs it has no carpet and I have a fenced patio/potty area for your pup to play in. I also live very close to the dog park and a quiet neighborhood to give your dog exercise
About: I’m an experienced pet caregiver with a passion for animals of all ages. I have two Australian Shepherds and have completed multiple levels of obedience and agility training, giving me strong skills in training and behavior management. I also care for an elderly cat, administering insulin and oral medication daily, so I’m well-versed in senior pet care and specialized medical needs. What sets me apart is my ability to adapt to each pet’s unique needs—whether it’s training energetic puppies, keeping active dogs engaged, or providing gentle care for seniors. Your pets will receive the love, structure, and attention they deserve while you’re away. I recently moved to this area and am excited to start building clientele here. Pet care is a big part of my life, and I have the flexibility to tailor my schedule to meet the needs of the pets and owners I work with. Whether it’s daily visits, occasional check-ins, or more structured care, I’m happy to accommodate different routines. During check-in visits and walks, I make sure each pet gets personalized care based on their needs and routine. For dogs, I provide exercise through walks or playtime, fresh water, meals if needed, and plenty of attention. I also reinforce any training cues they’re familiar with to keep consistency. For cats I ensure they have fresh food and water, clean litter boxes, and offer companionship or play based on their personality.
About: I have been a pet owner and caregiver my whole life. While I am a people person, I have always related the most to animals. I see them as family and friends, This means that daily routines such as feeding/watering, bathing, walking, playing, and administering medicine are not done as routines. I do them with as much intention and love as I can! I have cared for every sized dog, every cat personality, and farm animals. I am currently more available this summer: my main job is M-F, 9am - 1pm, meaning I can visit your pets 3 times a day as you need before and after those hours! I want your pets to feel as safe with me as they feel with you. I stick to the schedules I'm given, making sure I don't miss the extra pet you might give them. I enjoy cleaning as well, as this usually gives the animals a better headspace while you are out, so your home will be respected as well!
About: I have had a passion for animals ever since I was a young child. My dream would be to run my own dog kennel. Ive had animals my whole life. One of my other part time jobs is working at a boarding kennel. I bathe them, clean their kennels and take them out. As well as feeding them. I’m a very flexible person and I’m just doing this on the side. I do work full time abd part time so I may not always be available. But, I would love to eventually be able to do dog sitting and animal care permanently. I’m very good with animals! You can trust me around your dogs or cats!! All animals have a special place in my heart. And, you can trust that your animals are in good care while you’re away.
“Wish I could give more than 5 stars. Really got to know my dog, her personality, very aware of her routine and what may have been not normal. Extra aware of the heat, kept her walking in grass instead of street, driving water during the walk, etc. When Danielle would arrive, my dog's eyes would just light up and she'd grab a toy and run to greet her like she was family. Just great, everything you could ask for and beyond. Thank you Danielle!!”
About: I can’t remember a time that great family experiences didn’t involve a dog. We travel with our dogs, walk with our dogs, eat and play with our dogs. I have a senior Chiweenie because he is an older guy. We’ve had to change how we do things. Walks are shorter, but since he loves him so much, they are paramount. We have to make sure that he gets his medications three times a day. Petey now has specific eating requirements. This is all done so that he doesn’t have seizures and it keeps his arthritis from bothering him too much. I regularly care for my daughter’s three Cavaliers when they travel. Once, between all of our family pets I watched six dogs, two puppies, three chickens, and a bunny. I loved every minute of it! If you hire me, I will make sure that I care for your dogs like they are my own. Once you outline their daily needs, I will follow it to the letter. Your pets schedule will be the structure of my day. Everything else I do will be fit around it. If I have something that will interfere with that I will not accept the job. I will watch your pets in your home that as closely resembles their schedule when you are home. Leaving your pets can be hard are you and them. I find the less interference in how they usually live is the best.
