About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and have seen them in every stage of life. I love spending time with them, and I have cared for puppies of all ages, sizes and breeds. I have also pet sit for multiple different clients. I have basic pet first aid skills, and your pets safety and happiness will always be my top priority. I am currently working part-time. Please reach out for my hours and we can arrange something that works for both of us. I can’t wait to meet your pup! The pet being comfortable, safe, and well-cared for is my top priority.

About: I’ve been dog sitting for friends and family as long as I can remember. I love all animals and enjoy spending time with them. I’ve looked after every type of animal and every age.

About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for dogs and the care I bring to every interaction. I’ve taken care of my own dog for 9 years, so I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and affection. While I’m newer to pet sitting, I bring a thoughtful, responsible approach and treat every dog like they’re my own—whether it’s helping with a playful puppy or giving extra attention to a senior pup. I’m currently a teacher on summer break, which gives me a flexible weekday schedule. I’m available throughout the day for walks or check-ins and would love to spend time caring for your pets while you’re away! I care for pets by making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow their routine closely—whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or medication—and give them plenty of attention and affection. Whether in my home or yours, I treat each pet like family and aim to make the experience stress-free for both them and you.

About: I grew up in a household full of pets - cats, dogs, hamsters, hermit crabs, bunnies - and love animals. I’ve trained two of my dogs (both Australian shepherds) and loved every minute of it! I would love to fit in walks or house sit after work to help me get outside and enjoy some exercise with a furry friend. I have a 1 year old puppy, who I adore more than anyone. Before I got her, I said I wouldn’t spoil her like she was my child. I was wrong. She is, and she deserves everything in the world

About: Hello! I’m April — a proud dog mom and lifelong animal lover! I’m lucky to share my home with six amazing pups ranging in age from 5 months to 11 years. With over a decade of hands-on experience and a heart full of love for dogs of all kinds, I bring confidence, care, and compassion to every pup I meet. Thanks to my supportive husband and older kids, I’m able to dedicate my full attention to the dogs I care for, knowing mine are in great hands at home. I also volunteer with a local rescue group and have fostered over 35 dogs — from tiny breeds to gentle giants — all in my home. I truly love every dog I meet. I’m that person at the party hanging out with the family dog, and yes, I even have a leg sleeve tattoo of my dogs’ paw prints! Most of my wardrobe is dog-themed — being dog-obsessed is simply part of my personality. Your pet isn’t just a guest — they’re family. I’d love to meet you and your furry friend to see if we’re a great match! I work full-time, Monday through Friday, with hours that vary depending on my meetings. My position isn’t remote, so I do commute into the office during the day. That said, I make it a priority to spend meaningful, quality time with your pups whenever I’m with them! When I’m with them, they’re treated just like my own — with lots of love, attention, and care. I also understand how important clear communication and consistency are when you're away. My goal is always to give you peace of mind — and your pets all the love they deserve. Building trust and creating a safe, comforting environment is always my top priority. I take time to understand each dog’s personality and needs, which helps them feel secure, respected, and truly cared for. Earning their trust helps ensure they feel safe, secure, and truly happy throughout our time together.
