About: I have always loved Dogs , Cats and other animals. I got my first Dog over 20 Years ago. I can remember it like yesterday, she was white German Shepard mixed puppy named “Star”. I would play with her everyday after school, feed her and sometimes bath her. She was very quiet and relaxed but her aura could be felt before you even seen her beautiful white coat. The love and energy that I felt around her definitely impacted my life positively forever. She was truly the perfect definition of a Star and has unlocked the passion in my heart to show love to every dog, cat and animal that I meet. In my eyes they are just little angels covered in fur. With that being said, you can trust me to take care of your fur babies with the upmost love, care and respect, which will leave you with a peace of mind. I am currently working from home . So my schedule is very flexible and I will have plenty time for your pets.if you would like my services just let me know a day advance please. I don’t mind coming to your home to take care of your pets. I am reliable, trustworthy and always on time. I’m attentive at all times and will make sure that your babies are safe and treated like family. Communication and teamwork will make the dream work!
About: With over three years of experience as a kennel technician, I bring hands-on knowledge and a deep love for dogs of all shapes and sizes. I’ve cared for everything from playful puppies to senior dogs, and I’m comfortable with all breeds—from tiny Chihuahuas to extra-large Cane Corsos and everything in between. I’m experienced in administering medications, managing feeding schedules, and providing safe, enjoyable walks tailored to each dog’s needs. Whether your pup needs extra snuggles, structure, or space, I’m here to give them the care and attention they deserve while you’re away. Although I work a part-time job, I prioritize making sure every pet’s needs are fully met. I understand how important it is that dogs aren’t cooped up for hours at a time—they need attention, bathroom breaks, exercise, and love throughout the day. I plan my schedule carefully to ensure I’m available for timely feedings, walks, and playtime, and I’m always committed to giving your dog the care and companionship they deserve, no matter what. Dogs truly are my heart—mine are my children and my number one priority every single day. When I care for pets in my home, they’re treated like family. I create a calm, cozy, and safe environment where each dog gets plenty of love, attention, and playtime. Whether it’s belly rubs on the couch, a walk around the block, or just relaxing in the sun, I make sure every pup feels at home and cared for. Your dog will be welcomed with open arms (and maybe a few treats too)!
About: I am home often and go for hikes a considerable amount. I've been around and owned dogs my whole life. I have a considerable amount of knowledge regarding dogs and cats and believe that I am fluent enough in their behaviors to be a great dog walker/sitter. I have lots of experience in training dogs too so I can help with any training services that may be needed. I believe dogs are important parts of any family and deserve the same love and care as a child would receive from a babysitter. Contact me anytime for your petcare needs and I will reply ASAP!!! Hello! I’m currently on an extended break from touring with the circus and looking to fill my days with hobbies. I want an excuse to get outside so dog walking is perfect. Especially since my dogs are staying in Ga this summer and I miss them loads. I will not be offering boarding at this time. I currently do not live where it is applicable. I am still available to house sit within my mile perimeter.
About: Hi! I'm Brianna, your friendly neighborhood pet enthusiast, and dedicated pet sitter. I've had pets all throughout my childhood and love animals. I have 9 years of experience caring for my now senior black cat and senior mixed-breed family dog. Walks, playtime, or just comfort, I'm here for your fluffy best friend! I am a recent college graduate currently working as a Kennel Technician and inspire to be a future Vet Tech. I work 7-5 but I can meet you and your fluffy friend's needs. I can accommodate to whatever your fluffy friend needs inside and outside the house in a safe and loving environment. I always make sure to be sanitary going from pet to pet to reduce the spread of any illnesses.
