Pet Sitting Hartsburg

About: I grew up with numerous pets; cats, dogs, hamsters, and even a sugar glider. I love animals and the playful energy they bring! I am used to caring for multiple animals at once and have no issues doing so! I’m currently a full-time college student. I am available on the weekends and in the early morning/late evenings during the week. I enjoy running and being active so I’d love to have a furry friend to accompany me! I currently live in a townhome with a large unfenced yard that faces the woods. I can easily crate if needed and I am very active so active dogs are welcome!

About: • 3 years as veterinary assistant • 1.5 years as a kennel tech for boarding • 3 years as an equine handler for youth pony rides • 6 months shadowing professional dog trainers • Enrolled in Animal Sciences at MU with pre-admission to MU College of Veterinary Medicine Despite the many years I have dedicated to animal care, my passion only grows. My experience in veterinary medicine has provided me the knowledge and confidence to recognize and handle emergencies effectively. Through the years I have collected helpful advice on pet behavior, pet health, and handling that I am always happy to share. I am comfortable handling and providing care to dogs, cats, rabbits, rodents, and some exotics. I have always been recognized for my strong work ethic, and consider your pet’s health a top priority! I am currently working part-time in addition to being a full-time student. Weekends are perfect for me to care for your pet, however I can make some weekdays work as needed. In my client’s homes I am comfortable conducting any routine no matter how specific as I understand the complex needs of every pet. I am very thorough with directions, and have extensive experience medicating animals and handling emergencies.

“Elizabeth was great! We would highly recommend her! She was prompt, professional and very loving to our puppies. She followed all our instructions and was very communicative. My travels were blessed because she took away all my worries regarding leaving the puppies!”

About: Hello! I have had all kinds of pets growing up. I have always had at least a dog and a cat. Currently i personally have a 7 month old puppy and a 2 year old cat. I have been pet sitting for friends and family for about two years now. I would love to meet your furry friend! I currently am working 4 days a week but am free after work and my days off. My days off are Thursday, Friday, and Sunday. I will be attending school starting in November so my schedule will change then. I currently have a 7 month old puppy and a two year old cat, but have always had a pet so I have taken care of pets of all ages and breeds. My friends and family all have varying breeds and ages of dogs and I am comfortable with all of them! I always make sure to spend a good amount of time with them.

About: I am a pet lover and know how important it is for owners who can't take their furry friends along to have a place they feel safe and comfortable with. I have been watching animals of all species since I was a kid and feel comfortable with accommodating special care requests. I am very flexible with my schedule and am usually available to be with your best friends for most of their waking hours. I have a pet cam available if I need to leave them alone for a little bit. I live on a large countryside area a bit off the main road with lots of grassy unfenced area. I keep my home very clean but animals are allowed to snuggle with me on the furniture to make their stay as comfy as possible. I can make many accommodations according to how you like to care for your furry friend!

About: I grew up with a cat and found a love for all my friends dogs. I have been working with animals since I can remember. I have also worked with Second Chance and have taken their train the trainer type class. I love training new tricks and starting a new bond with most animals (no spiders or snakes). I am a remote worker, which means I can come to you. I am able to take breaks throughout the day to take walks or give some attention to the Animals. Also if you have a puppy that needs to be potty trained I have a great schedule for that. While I will be coming to your place to take care of your animals, I would prefer to meet up at least once before watching your pet to make sure there are no problems. I also believe if I am watching your pet at your home any messes are on me to clean.

About: Tons of animal experience, have been pet sitting since around the age of 13 for family and friends! Happy to provide references to make you know your pet is getting the best care! I currently am PRN for the state hospital so get to pick my own schedule! That being said I have plenty of time to care for your animals! I have a huge yard and large apartment with plenty of space to make your animals feel comfortable and welcomed while staying in my home!

“Sharon was great! Clyde loved her, and she took excellent care of him! Clyde is a pretty needy cat, a picky eater, and can be demanding of attention. Sharon loved on him while I was out of town, brushing him and spoiled him until I got home. She did a wonderful job taking care of him and also sending me updates of her visits. She came consistently around the same time, and I think she was fantastic!”

About: Animals have always been my passion, ever since I was young. Having four dogs and two cats at home, I’m experienced in multiple types of pets! Any special requirement for any dog is never too big of a task. Keeping the pet happy and comfortable is my top goal. I have worked with a senior dog, keeping him comfortable and as active as he can be was somethin I took pride in doing, puppies are also no trouble. Entertaining and making sure they potty where they’re supposed to. Messes are no problem though, upset stomachs are something that happen and it’s okay! Accidents happen too and I’m up to cleaning it. My schedule is normally pretty open. I have taken care of three dogs for years, and then having one more to the group to make four. I would be going to your home to help take care of your dog or cat. Keeping them comfortable is my main goal, I always wait with patience and take my time to try to bond with your pet.

About: I've always loved animals ever since I was a little girl. Since the age of 9 I've been around all kinds of animals besides dogs and cats. Like birds and reptiles that kinda thing. When I do pet sit for someone I usually try to see what the dogs or cats favorite toy or treat is. Then would go and buy a little goody bag for them, just to tell them that there a good girl or a good boy! Besides watching your pets I try to make sure to tidy up your house and to make sure it's nice before you come home. I'm also a quick learner and would help if your animal needs a certain kind of medicine or treatment. I have some experience with that already but I love to learn new things! I'm currently only working weekends part time. It's just not enough for me and since I love animals why not be a pet sitter or just your everyday dog walker. I try my very best to get to know your pet as much as possible. More like I'll treat your pet like how I treat my own. For an example if they have allergies I'll make a quick note and make sure that I don't give them anything there not supposed to have.

About: Hello! I'm Kelsey and I have been in the veterinary medical field as a technician since 2014. I started vet school in 2023 and am finishing up now. I have worked in a number of companion animal hospitals as well as an emergency hospital and have had the opportunity to work with pets of all shapes and sizes with a vast variety of needs. I give the care and respect to all pets that I would want given to mine. I am knowledgeable and experienced with a multitude of medical conditions requiring daily medication administration. I am available on most weekends, early week day mornings, and late week day afternoons. I am extremely familiar with timid or aggressive pets (I have one myself) and understand their body language and possess the patience to win them over. I'd love to have the opportunity to give your furry friend some love!

About: I have been a pet-sitter since I was in high school. It started with dogs but then it spread to cats, lizards and birds. I enjoy getting to know all pets and learn their unique needs in order to support them while their parents are away. I work full-time but I am fully available in the evenings after 4 pm then all day on Saturday and Sundays. I am willing to make accommodations and special arrangements on an as needed basis as well. I am willing to offer your pet what it needs to thrive when you as the owner are out of town. I like to be a comforting person for your pets while providing excellent care to them. I am always up for special requests to make your pet feel safe and secure.

“Anna was prompt in her communication and dogs were happy and well taken care of, will definitely use Anna again!”
