About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a freshman in high school. I have 5 of my own dogs which is a lot of work but has helped grow my experience. I’m a college student working part time and majority of my classes are online. I’ve got a lot of time on my hands if you need me to check in or stay over. I make sure your dog is safe and happy while also following the list of instructions given by you. If you need me to stay over I can maintain a clean environment

About: My wife Hannah and I have had experience with reactive dogs, senior care, medications, daily walks, enrichment activities, and anything a pup could want or need for a happy and healthy life. Two person adult household, we both have full time jobs, afternoons, evenings and weekends can be dedicated to the needs of the dog or dogs. We have a fenced in large backyard and can provide whatever additional enrichment the animal might need from walks to mental stimulation or training activities.

About: Hi! My name is Madison and I have experience caring for pets of all sizes and personalities! I have had dogs all my life and currently have two cats of my own, Willow and Daisy. From volunteering at local animal rescues to previous work at a doggy daycare center, I have experience with a broad range of temperaments and can quickly adapt to meet the needs of individual pets. As a pharmacy technician, I am also familiar and comfortable with administering medical needs such as insulin or medication. I work full time and am able to stop before and after work. My shifts are about 8 hours with a 1 hour break if an additional stop is needed during this time. I am able to adjust my out of work schedule in order to prioritize your pet! I prioritize the safety and well-being of pets in my care by maintaining a pet-friendly, secure environment. At my home, I ensure all potential hazards (like toxic plants or dangerous objects) are kept out of reach, and I provide designated areas for rest, play, and meals. When caring for pets in a client's home, I follow their specific instructions regarding routines, diet, and preferences, while also ensuring their home is safe and comfortable for the pet. I aim to establish trust through clear communication, regular updates, and by respecting the pet's needs and boundaries, making sure they feel comfortable and at ease throughout my care.

About: I have hands-on experience caring for both large and small dogs, as well as cats. I regularly help care for a German Shepherd, including feeding, administering oral medications, and providing frequent potty breaks and attention. I’m also experienced with smaller, high-energy dogs and understand the patience and consistency they need. In addition, I have my own cat, so I’m very familiar with feline care, including feeding routines, litter box maintenance, and giving lots of attention to more vocal or affectionate cats. I also care for my own pet gecko, which has given me experience maintaining consistent routines and meeting specific care needs for animals. I’m comfortable handling different temperaments and needs, including pets that require extra care or supervision. I’m available Thursdays through Sundays for full-time care, and can also care for pets on my workdays after shifts. I’m experienced with adult dogs, cats, and pets with special needs, and I always make sure they receive attention, feeding, and potty breaks according to their schedule I provide attentive and loving care for pets, whether in my home or theirs. At a client’s home, I follow their instructions for feeding, medications, and routines, give pets regular attention and potty breaks, and make sure they feel safe and comfortable. In my home, I create a calm and clean environment with plenty of love, attention, and safe spaces for pets to relax and play

About: I’ve had a dog in my life since the day I was born. I love to spend time with dogs by going for walks or car rides (if the owner allows it of course!) I have a cat and a dog of my own that I care for daily. All the usuals like feeding, letting outside, cleaning the litter box, but I also love to take my dog for walks and car rides or play with her in the back yard. I have so much fun playing with my cat and just giving him love! I’m usually very good about being able to let dogs out every couple of hours and love to hang out for a while to keep your pets company while you’re away!

About: I've had animals in my family since I was a kid so I am very familiar and comfortable around all sorts of animals. I have cared for dogs of all sizes. Such as Shia tzus, Golden Retrievers, Australian Shepards, and German Shepards.I have experience giving a cat insulin and providing medicine day and night to both dogs and cats. I have taken care of puppies and older dogs. I have stayed the night at friend's houses when pet sitting and I have no fears of any kind of animal. I am currently not working so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets! I do play pickleball about 5 times a week and workout but those are activities that can be moved around to best fit your schedule. Pickleball is only about 3 hours of my day so it won't interfere with any pet duties I may have. In my home we use a company called Halo to keep my dog in my lawn so I am familiar with electric fences its technology. I always stay outside when letting my dog out for the bathroom and know how to work a leash when talking them on walks. I clean litter boxes and pick up poop. I have experience taking care of pets in their home but since I have animals of my own and no fence, I will not be available to take care of pets in my home.

About: I’ve owned dogs since I was born and now I have my own. I have also dog sat for people and treat them like my own. My job is very flexible so I can come and go as needed to spend time with your babies! I work during the week and have the weekends off! I do offer constant care but higher prices will incur. I have a semi fenced yard and can take them out on leashes to be safe. I also have a fur baby to keep your dog company.

About: Dogs have been part of my life since childhood, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I’ve owned and cared for both small and large breeds, so I’m comfortable with a wide range of personalities, energy levels, and care needs. I spent years volunteering with All Breed Rescue & Training in Colorado, where I gained experience supporting rescued dogs. For a year, I traveled across the country providing in-home pet care through TrustedHousesitters, staying with pets in exchange for room and board. This allowed me to care for dogs in many different homes, routines, and regions—learning how important consistency, communication, and trust are when owners are away. Today, I share my home with my own small dog, so I understand firsthand how much your pet means to you. Whether your dog needs playtime, structured walks, companionship, or just a calm and reliable presence, I treat every animal like they’re part of my family. I currently work remotely from home and have a flexible schedule. I am available for drop in visits and walks in the middle of the day and check in on your baby. I treat every dog like my own but also respect every dog's individual needs. Whatever approach or structure is needed to make your pet happy, I am happy to follow.

“Madison has been a life saver! Due to some recent life changes, I was worried that I might have to surrender my dog Tripp because of my long work shifts. Madison is making it possible for me to keep Tripp by walking him and giving him a potty break while I'm at work. Madison has shown great communication and has been extremely reliable. I would highly recommend!”
