About: Iâve always had dogs in my life and love spending time with them. Iâve cared for my own pets for years, including raising and training my current dog, who is now four years old. Iâm experienced with daily routines like feeding, walks, playtime, administering medications if applicable, and I always treat animals with love and respect. While most of my experience is personal, I bring a reliable and caring approach to every pet as if they were my own! I work from home four days a week, and I am usually local on weekends, so my schedule is flexible. Iâm home throughout the day and can provide potty breaks when needed and playtime during lunch hour and in the evenings. My schedule makes it easy to pop by during lunch or evenings to check in, feed, and give some love and attention as needed. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. I have a labrador retriever who gets along with other animals and a fully fenced-in yard for safe outdoor play. I keep a close eye on all pets, maintain their usual routines, and make sure they feel comfortable and loved.
About: I grew up with dogs within my family and through friends. I watched my neighbors dogs throughout high school, as well as the dogs for the families I babysat for. I also currently have a dog of almost 4 years, so I understand the level of attention a dog may need especially in the training years. Iâm currently working a full-time hybrid job, so I am home and available Mondays, Thursdays, and Fridays. I am completely available on weekends. I am also available Tuesdays and Thursdays after 7:00pm. I will care for your pet however you would like for me to. I can provide sitting, walking and feeding services and I am flexible!

About: I grew up with two German Shepherds, Duke and Thor. Eventually after Duke passed away we got Brie who was a "K9 drop out". My brother has a German Shepherd named Kai, my dad has a 3 legged chocolate lab, Bixby, and two cats, Socks and Olaf, that I frequently care for. I am familiar with small, medium, and large breeds. Dogs with behavioral issues, food aggression or dogs that require specific instructions. I am an early riser, I go to the gym and run before work. If you have a high energy dog, I am a good fit for you. I will make sure your pup is tired by the end of our visit. I will make sure your pet is safe by making sure there are no hazards and if we go for a walk I will keep your pet on a leash and protected against any threat. I have had many dogs off leash run up to myself and a clients dog and I always put myself in-between my clients dog and the others.

About: I have had at least one dog since I was 9 years old! I am used to catering to dogs at all stages of life. I adore dogs and believe that they are the most wonderful creatures â¤ď¸ I work as a school adjustment counselor Monday- Friday, and I am looking for a part-time side hustle. I can housesit Friday Evening-Sunday Evening. During the school year, I can also walk your dog(s) in the afternoon- except for the fall, which is when I coach a sport. I have a lot of availability in the summer. I also have more availability during some school vacation weeks. I currently live in a condo, so I do not have any pets. I would stay at your home, and follow the protocols you have. My family has 2 dogs, but they live with my parents as I cannot have them at my place. I see them frequently and take care of them when my parents are away. I still consider them my dogs though :)

About: I am a retired Probation Officer in Masachusetts, but animals are my true passion. I have cared for my friends and neighbors cats, dogs, and rabbits. I am willing to care for any animal with no breed restrictions. I have a Senior rescue cat who is the joy of my life, and the only reason I am not offering home care at this time as he is a very happy and loved only child. I am not sure how he would react to another pet in the home, and he is my first priority. :) I am recently retired, and I am available most days and evenings to care for your pets. I will send plenty of photos and always keep you updated on your pets during visits. I bought my senior cat two sets of stairs because I saw that he was struggling to get off the bed. I bought one set for him to get on the bed and one set to put beside his condo so he could just go straight over to it. He prefers to hang out on the stairs instead of his condo so he can spy on my neighbors. LOL I love animals, and I love to make them happy and to make their lives easier. I will treat any client's pet like my own and spoil them rotten!
About: Iâve always loved all animals since I was a little kid. I have been pet sitting for family and friends for the past 5 years and previously worked at a doggy daycare and boarding facility! Currently I am a part-time student with a wide range of availability. Iâm available Mondays, Tuesdays until 6pm, Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, also Saturdays and Sundays! I will care for and love your pets as if they are my own! I have completed a PackPro dog safety training course, have lots of experience with rescued/anxious dogs, and I will clearly follow any instructions I am given!
âPhoebe had a great time with Kim! Kim was kind enough to send pictures and updates of their walk and left a nice note behind, too! Phoebeâs already looking forward to their next visit!â

âBrittany was great! She took the dog out, but it was dangerously cold (5 degrees) and he was shaking so once he did his business she played with him inside for a bit rather than freeze him outside. She was so nice so stay with him and play. I got a notification from my doggy cam that my dog was crying and I looked and he was staring at the door crying when she left. He loved her! Definitely will book her again.â
