About: I’ve been a pet mom for over 25 years while raising my five children. Since losing my loyal companion 2 years ago and empty nesting, I am ready to shower love and care to your beloved pet. There’s nothing like the unconditional love of a pet and I can’t wait to meet your furry companion! I am currently a companion to my 90 year old mother and am home every day. I can easily incorporate care for your pet into our very flexible schedule. I can offer walks, play and companionship to your pet and visits to dog parks if they like to play with other dogs. Deck available at home- yard is not fenced in. Beautiful walking area around the lake behind our home.
“Vanessa allowed my puppy to feel right at home during his week long stay. She took many pictures and is very knowledgable and responsive.”
“Veronique was incredible! She had great communication throughout the day and sent plenty of photos. Penny was happy as ever when I came to pick her up as she played with her new friend Guinness!”
“Lauren always takes great care of my sweet girl either overnight or for doggy daycare. She has a large yard and other dogs for socialization. Overall a wonderful sitter!”
About: I have taken care of animals ever since I was 12 it’s just a natural thing for me. I am very reliable and trustworthy with walking, feeding and caring for any dog in my care. I get highly recognized on how my dogs listen to me so that is what made me want to go into this business just honestly doing something I enjoy && love. I’m currently working a full-time job but I am usually always off on Fridays and Saturdays so I take that time very seriously to go and take my dogs to the dog park and let them play for hours to tire them out , time for cuddles , car rides whatever you can think of we’re gonna be doing . My job does not interfere with the passion and love I have for dogs I make the time and the effort to ensure they still have fun and to ensure I’m still available. My job is very close to my apartment so even if in the event I do have to step away from your fur babies I’m not that far and I also have a camera inside my place to ensure I have eyes on them 24/7 . Fridays and Saturdays are the days that I am off all day but please understand that I am available any day of the week if it is OK with the pet parents while I am absent, their dog can be crated. I have a camera in my home so that lets me see even if I do have to step away what they are doing if they are barking or if they are out for whatever reason or in distress. Please be rest assured that I will have eyes on your fur babies 24/7 in the event I am not there physically. I also show my care by letting them get a sense of me also by laying with me so they know I’m not here to hurt them I’m just here to love on them while their parents are gone. Lastly I do keep my dogs crated most nights to ensure safety after they have had a fun day of playing I usually put a blanket over their crate from what I’ve observed it really does help animals sleep. I also reward my dogs with treats for good behavior , because realistically what fur baby doesn’t like a little treat. :)
About: Friends and family have trusted me to care for their pets short-term and for extended stays for years, and I’ve cared for multiple pets of my own over the years. I’m currently working full time remotely at home, so I’ll have plenty of time to care for your pets either at my home or in the comfort of yours! I have a fenced in yard, cameras, and a cat that is friendly and welcoming. She’d love to keep your fur babies company while visiting! In your home, I’m happy to follow any and all rules set to make you and your baby comfortable.
“Dave took excellent care of my 10-month old puppy. He sent several photos and updates throughout the day and put my mind at ease. My energetic puppy had a great time playing with the other two pups in Dave’s care and came home tired and happy. I will definitely book with Dave again!”
“Jennifer was wonderful with Vesta. The pictures looked great and constantly kept me updated. Will use again!”
“Shannon was a fantastic host for Razzle's stay. She is kind and caring and took great care of my elderly pug.”
About: Do you need to go out of town? Need somebody to take care of your pets? Look no further I'm the person for the job! I walk my son Money daily about 3 or 4 times a day, and let him run around in the backyard. So pet care is apart of my everyday life. Well I care for my son Money by attending to his every need so I would care for other people's pets according to their instructions.
About: I have been taking care of dogs and cats my entire life—owning both personally! I also have extensive experience caring for senior dogs and cats. I’m currently working part time, so I have plenty of time to hang out, play with, and take care of your precious doggo or gatos! I have a spacious apartment with tons of room to lounge in. It has a huge comfy couch that pets are welcome to nap on. My complex also has a large, quiet, rarely-used dog enclosure that’s perfect for throwing the ball and getting some exercise in. I also live near the River Walk in downtown Hillsborough, which is perfect for sunny walks.
About: I enjoy spending time with animals, giving them love, and can be rather protective of them. They let us know in many ways what they want and need. I don’t claim to be a dog whisperer but I feel I understand their language. I plan to get to know your pet and their language to make sure they stay happy while you’re away! I have extensive experience with a variety of dogs and frequently “babysit” dogs for my friends and family. I am comfortable going on a walk, doing home visits, or hosting your dog in my home. Your dogs comfort is my top priority, so just let me know what they need and I’m happy to accommodate! I look forward to meeting you and your pet!
“Peter and his dog Kahlua were wonderful with our special needs pup! Peter was very cognizant of all of Linus's specific needs and Linus clearly had a wonderful day with him and didn't want to leave! Definitely plan to book again.”
