About: As a dog and cat owner, I understand the need for appropriate care for my pets. Caring for my family’s dogs and cats since childhood, and taking care of friends pets while they were away on vacation, has given me firsthand experience with daily pet care routines. Additionally through my volunteer work with Rawhide Rescue, I developed valuable skills in working with dogs from all backgrounds, caring for them during the day, and helping them find loving forever homes. I began working with Rawhide Rescue in 2014. Through my connections with the organization I was also involved in caring for cats as well. I’m a part time University Student studying Computer Science. I also work part time managing my own business. I have a lot of free time and I would be happy to care for your pets! Let me know if I can be of any help! As a local university student, I am available to care for pets during the following times: • Monday: All Day • Tuesday: 7:00am - 8:00am, 1:00pm - 2:00pm, 7:40pm - 10:00pm • Wednesday: All Day • Thursday: 7:00am - 8:00am, 10:30am - 2:00pm, 9:00pm - 10:00pm • Friday to Sunday: Available all day This schedule allows me to provide consistent and attentive care throughout the week. Route Planning: I select safe walking routes, avoiding high-traffic areas and known hazards, to minimize risks. Weather Considerations: I monitor weather conditions, avoiding long walks during extreme temperatures Communication: I provide regular updates to pet owners, including photos and notes on their dog’s activities and well-being. Vigilance: I stay alert to potential hazards such as other animals, traffic, and environmental dangers to ensure the dog’s safety. Cleanliness: I carry waste bags and promptly clean up after the dog to maintain a clean environment.
About: I have worked at the pet shop in town for almost 4 years. I have learned a lot about nutrition and am here to help with that as well. I have always loved dogs & animals. I have 3 dogs now and use to have cats growing up. I have always helped family/ friends with their pets. My cousins would call me “ the dog whisperer” I am very patient and understanding- a dog sometimes is anxious just like us humans. I think taking time out of the day and using interactive toys is so important for stimulation and keeping them busy. I usually am off on sunday & tuesdays. I typically work in the morning until 3pm. Can do walks/feed them/ check in’s on the dogs after work and most likely before work. I have lots of grass outside & a gate inside.I would play with them outside, make sure they have a harness and a longer line ( so they are safe)& take them for walks. I can brush the dogs as well. I do prefer to stop at the clients house. I have 2 dogs at my house - it can be a lot. In the clients house I would first make sure the dog goes outside to the bathroom upon arrival. I would take them for a walk, play with the dogs outside( depending on the gate situation) Make sure they have lots of water, food & i can brush them.
About: My partner and I both grew up with dogs, have cared for friends dogs, and both rescued our puppies 4 and 5 years ago (terrier mixes). We both have extensive training experience and can identify dog body language well. We will ensure a safe and fun environment for your fuzzy loved ones. Our dogs are both fully vaccinated and we only accept dogs with current vaccinations. We both work from home and have flexible working hours. We can let your dogs out in our fenced in back yard, play with them, and take them for walks around the neighborhood. We have a fenced in back yard, a large couch, and two friendly medium energy dogs to play and nap with your fuzzy loved ones. We also offer treats if your dog is allowed.
About: Hi, I’m Kimberly! I was born an animal lover, and I’ve spent my life surrounded by all kinds of pets—from puppies and parrots to ponies and hedgehogs! Over the years, I’ve worked as a vet tech, kennel tech, dog breeder, handler, trainer and breed judge. I’ve also raised a family alongside a full house of animals, young and old, healthy and in need of extra care. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do—it’s who I am. I’ve helped nurse many pets back to health with patience, time, and love. I believe every animal deserves gentle, attentive care—especially when their humans are away. Let me be your pet’s loving caregiver and companion while you’re gone. I’ll treat them like family! ⸻ Why I love pet sitting I’ve loved animals my whole life! Pet sitting allows me to do what I love most—care for animals—while giving peace of mind to other pet parents. ⸻ Can I administer medication? Yes! I worked as a veterinary technician for 5 years and have experience with oral medications, injections, wouand care. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide consistent, attentive care throughout the day. Whether your pet needs early morning walks, midday playtime, or evening snuggles, I’m available to accommodate your routine. I’ll work with you to make sure your pet stays happy, comfortable, and on schedule while you’re away. There truly is no place like home, especially when it comes to our beloved pets. I wholeheartedly believe that animals find their greatest joy and sense of security within the warmth and familiarity of their own surroundings. That’s why I provide gentle, trustworthy in-home care designed to maintain your pet’s routine and minimize any stress they may feel. Whether it’s a nutritious meal, a refreshing walk, administering medication, or simply sharing some cuddle time, I promise to care for your pet with all the love and tenderness as if they were my own, right in the comfort of their cherished home.

“I cannot recommend Ryan enough. Ryan is reliable, patient, experienced, and kind. He loves animals and can be trusted to meet pets’ special needs. My dog is a bit high strung, and Ryan always gives him extra attention and calms him. Ryan also has gained the trust of my cat, which was no easy task. She is afraid of everything and almost everyone. Having Ryan care for the pets allows me to relax when I am away because I know they are in good hands. It is a huge relief.”

Gade is not only a loving and responsible dog owner herself, but she also brings several years of hands-on experience from working at a privately owned pet store. Her deep understanding of animal behavior, combined with her calm and compassionate nature, makes her a natural with all kinds of pets. Gade is incredibly reliable, patient, and truly attentive to the needs of every animal in her care. She has a calm energy that animals seem to instantly trust and feel at ease around. Whether you're looking for someone to take your dog on regular walks or to provide thoughtful, loving care while you're away, you can feel completely confident leaving your pet in Gade's care. Your furry family member will be in excellent hands with Gade!”
