Sidney is absolutely wonderful. She was willing to step up in odd circumstances, and she was so gentle with my pup. I can't overstate just how good at this she is. Great attention to detail & a great personality to accompany it.

Savannah exceeded our expectations. Our 3 puppies were so happy with her and fell in love. I got to come home to my puppies who had no anxiety. Can’t wait for her to hang out with them again!

About: I studied to be come a vet assistant at high dessert medical college, where I also took an extern ship with task that included, helping take care of animals for boarding, injured animals, and animals before and after surgeries. I have skill with proper animal care and proper husbandry. I am currently working part time at the blvd so they won’t be alone for more then an 8hour shift and I only work one 8hr shift a week so ill be home most of the time when pets are in my care I will allow pets full access to my room and living room (I do have young siblings in my house so I would keep pets in my room if the kids are being to rough) while taking them on walks during the day and night or as needed I’ll feed them to owner preference along with 24/7 access to plenty of water I do understand I have a small apartment but I live close to a park with a dog area to take them for few hours twice a day while it is fresh outside unless otherwise specified by owner.

Kat is amazing. She truly cares for the animals she watches. We have a 2yo golden retriever (very energetic and pushes boundaries). Kat worked so well with her! She trained Ellie while also showing her lots of love and affection. We are so grateful to have found someone we can trust with our girl. Thank you, Kat!

About: Like staying in shape by taking jogs or walks to the park and having a companion come along. Like to have little or big company to play with and help train to help them learn their tricks. Pet loving family that will enjoy the extra company on my days off work. I have had a few pets that I enjoyed coming home to and playing with but due to budgets and lack of free time was not able to care for my pets full time so we gave them away to our family member that was in love with them and now they have full attention from their owners and are happy. Since I can't have my pets I would like to still have some part time to fill that void.

Our pup, Tilly, was happy with Jess and so are we. He took her for her walks and the neighbors who ran into him and Tilly said that he was great. Upon our return, the house was neat and clean. Can't get much better. Will definitely use Jess again.

Kharlee is fantastic! Kharlee dogsat for my 3 while I was gone on a trip and stayed with them at my home. This was my first time using a dog sitter and It was exactly what I was looking for - and I just came home to 3 very happy and safe puppers. Kharlee was awesome with communication and sending pictures and updates. She also made a point to do multiple meet and greets with my pups to make sure they would be comfortable with her. I will 100% be using Kharlee again and am stoked to have found someone my dogs are so happy with! :)

About: I’ve had pets all my life and have been a dog owner for the past 10 years. I also previously spent about 5 years walking a dog for someone else. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, and giving pets patient, reliable care. Pet care fits easily into my routine, and I can make time for walks, drop-ins, feeding, and playtime. I’m dependable, communicative, and understand the importance of showing up on time and following a pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. I care for pets by following the owner’s instructions closely and paying attention to each animal’s comfort, behavior, and routine. I believe in a calm, patient approach and making sure pets feel safe, secure, and well cared for in their own environment.

About: I've been raising dogs since I was a teenager. I've literally raised them from birth, I've got experience breeding dogs and have helped them during the birth process. I just recently became a cat owner so I don't have very much experience with them but am learning new things all the time about them. I'm not the grooming type so if you want nails clipped or trimming done I suggest seeking someone else for that. I'm okay with giving them baths but that's about the extent of it. I've walked up to 3 dogs at once so I'm efficient in walking dogs. As shown in my headline I'm a big animal lover, they're my weakness, kryptonite, Achilles heel. I'm more emotional over their deaths than humans. My availability varies due to having a part time job and having animals of my own to care for but I'm capable of juggling all that I make sure my pets always have food & water, I also make sure they go outside to relieve themselves and just to get some exercise

About: Welcome to my profile! Growing up in a lively household filled with both dogs and a variety of other animals, I developed a profound love and understanding of animal behavior from a young age. With over five years of professional dog-sitting experience, I've cared for breeds of all sizes and temperaments, ensuring each pup receives the attention and affection they deserve. My unique upbringing has equipped me with the skills to manage not just dogs, but also other pets, making me a versatile caregiver who can provide a safe and nurturing environment for your furry family member. Whether it's long walks, playtime, or simply cuddling up on the couch, I am dedicated to making your dog's experience enjoyable and enriching. Your pet's well-being is my top priority, and I can't wait to meet them! I'm currently working from home, and occasionally watching other dogs, but my availability is COMPLETELY OPEN, and am happy to help out whenever needed! This includes daytime, nighttime, weekends, holidays, multiple-days, you name it! I have a pretty decent sized apartment, that's CLEANED & SANITIZED DAILY, has AC/HEAT, non-smoking, and always has some toys, blankets, and sanitized food/water bowls ready, just in case the owner doesn't bring them. I also take the pets outside quite frequently, as much as possible honeslty! Also, not just to potty, but to explore the neighborhood, RUN for extended periods of time, and to constantly practice/improve use of commands, and healthy interactions with other people/pets/stimulation we may encounter along the way!
