About: I have had dogs and cats since I was born. My parents share the same love for animals as I do, and I think I love them more honestly! I’ve dealt with losing a pet, and adding new additions to the family. In my eyes no breed of dog or cat is superior and I would love to meet all the pets I can!! I work part-time so I will put the days I am available into the schedule! On my days off I would be more than happy to take your dogs for walks or do drop in visits with dogs and cats! I also marked all days as available because my hours can be funky and I can sometimes work only 4 hour shifts. I take my dogs for walks frequently. They are a bit stubborn sometimes (especially my olde english) but after we get walking they love being outside! The summer heat gets to them both though, so I would love to get outside!
“As always, we were so impressed with Miranda. She is so thoughtful and caring when it comes to our fur babies. We are so grateful to her and the wonderful job she does.”
About: My pets are indoors AND outside because I have safe, pet friendly, separated or joined, sheltered, natural areas where we can all unwind on my seven acres. I'm a retiree who devotes all my time to my grandkids, animals and hobbies. Your pets' needs are provided for at all times whether they are here for a day, week or month as they are included in our family activities. Pets are kept separated or allowed to play together depending on their needs. I provide crates, mats, kennels and even my bed for peaceful sleeping.
About: I’ve taken care of all of my neighbors pets while they’ve been on vacation since I was around 10 years old. I have always gotten along really well with animals and respect and love their company. i’m working on figuring out my career path in life. i have a cat that i would prefer to stay with, but she does perfectly fine alone for a night :) I would prefer to meet the pet with the owner beforehand, and to be given instructions on how you want me to care for your pet. I have had customers who prefer me to stay and live in the house with the pets, or others will just have me come check in on them a couple times a day, feed / let them out etc
About: I’ve been working with animals since I was a little girl. We always had animals in our house & I have been a pet sitter for many years. I have experience with dogs, cats, lizards, fish, & smaller animals like hamsters. I love animals of every kind & having many of my own, I understand how important it is to trust who is taking care of your pets. I am currently working full time but my schedule is very flexible so I am able to move things around to accommodate when it is needed. Having pets of my own, I understand different tasks are needed. My services are walks, feeding, watering, letting outside, cleaning up after pets, baths, and pretty much anything needed!
“Great job. Thank you”
About: I’ve had senior dogs, puppies, and the in-between. I grew up on a farm with cats, dogs, cattle, chickens, and ducks and currently have 3 dogs & 3 cats of my own - I’m definitely an animal lover, through and through. Your fur baby will be extremely well taken care of! I’m currently working remote with extremely flexible hours, so I’m able to care for your fur babies throughout the day and night, or whenever you might need me! I have 3 sweet dogs who are cuddle bugs, and 3 cats who just lay around and hang out.

About: I grew up on a farm in Iowa taking care of a variety of animals and it's turned into a passion very quickly. As an adult aside from my own pets I worked for a dog groomer for 5 years and heald many titles! I was personal assistant/ lead bather/ weekend boarder/ vacation boarder for clients going out of town. In my personal life I also did many rescue and rehomes for mainly cats and dogs. Working with animals has helped me so much to have a better understanding of them and how they communicate their comfort zones. I have worked with the sweetest and most cuddly animals to very aggressive and anxious animals of all sizes and breeds over the years and have only had to turn down services a handful of times while offering an owner safer suggestion that could work for them and their fur children. If you are wanting to work on your dogs social skills with other dogs I've got that covered too! My traveling companion is a 8 year old boarder collie mix named Bunny. She is completely submissive to all sizes and breeds. I've worked with her many times with introductions and she is very patient. 🙂 I am free nights and weekends for walks and boarding. I will be attending school M-F 7 to 3:30 so anytime after this I am available. My personal dog is a senior so she does have a special diet. My background in working with animals I am comfortable giving any medications they might need if scheduled at my time of service. I'm open to following any instructions or rules you would like me to as long as I feel that I have built enough trust with your animal to provide this if you are not present.
About: I grew up around a variety of animals. From pigs to cows. Sheep, goats, rabbits, hamsters, dogs, cats, fish, and more. I’ve seen and cared for so many animals growing up with a farm in the country and living in suburbs during school time! I know animals are too good for humans. Therefore I will do anything I can to always care and help animals in need. I can confidently say your animals is in safe hands :) As a college student, tending for my animals is a big responsibility. Feeding and maintaining the happiness of my pets is a great joy in my life. It is just a task that comes with caring for any animals. It is always worth the responsibility. Having two cats in my home allows for me to clean the litter box, provide food daily, take my cats for time outside, and to provide them with endless petting sessions. A clean environment ensures the pets happiness and well being.

I will do my best to make your pet feel as though you never left by sticking close to their typical routine, and making them feel loved and secure.

About: I’ve taken care of many animals since I was just a little kid. I’ve always held a special place in my heart for dogs, along with small critters. Just recently I moved from Wisconsin, working at a humane society there where everyday I did all the basic care routines/evaluations for approximately 40 dogs. It was a blast, but I’d also love to slow down, and give 1 on 1 attention to the needs of each. I am currently a pretty free person, beginning my career of dog training, Bait’s Purpose: K-9. I plan my future around my dogs, and training. I care for pets however is requested by the owner(s), this just varies on what each dog is comfortable with. Dogs are in great care, however.
