About: My house has never had less than 3 animals in it, including a parakeet. I’ve worked on my family farm and cared for animals for over 20 years. I currently work full time from home, so I am available to provide services on weekdays and on the weekends anytime. I can work around my current work schedule very easily from home. I live in a pet friendly, spacious house that provides lots of windows for pets to look out and full of fun yours for toys for any animal. My wife is a fellow animal lover and is helping raise our 2 cats and 1 dog . The cats and dog play well with anyone and everyone, including other cats and dogs.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life, and grew up volunteering in shelters and working at a kennel. I am completely comfortable around both cats and dogs, and I occasionally foster both through my local shelter while they wait for their forever homes. I’m experienced and certified in basic dog training for puppies. I am able to administer dog CPR and basic first aid in case of emergency. I’d be happy and proud to take care of your pet(s) for you. I am extremely flexible, and able to work with most schedules. I can do set schedules as well as one-time as needed schedules. Willing to work with my clients for whatever fits their needs. I am located very close to two pet friendly parks, and an extremely walkable neighborhood that has ample amounts of sidewalks. I love hanging out high energy animals that need a lot of play time as well as just relaxing on the couch with more low key pets!

About: I have always loved taking care of animals and playing with them. I have always taken care of family friend's pets while they were away and would love to do this for other people through this. I love to make sure new pets I take care of feel as comfortable as possible with me. I work during the day but am always home by the latest 4 but usually 2:30. I will always work around your animals and make them my absolute priority while taking care of them. I am super flexible so we can always work together to figure out the best schedule that works best for you and your animals. I have pets of my own so I understand potential dangers to them. When I watch your pets I will treat them like my own and care for them how I would like my pets to be cared for. They will be my priority and I will try to make them feel as safe and comfortable with me as possible.

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, and that lifelong experience has shaped me into a patient, attentive, and genuinely passionate caregiver. I’m not just a pet sitter—I’m someone who truly understands different personalities, needs, and stages of life. I have hands-on experience with everything from energetic puppies who need consistent training and structure to senior pets who require gentle care, medication routines, and extra comfort. My goal is always to make your pet feel safe, loved, and understood, while giving you complete peace of mind when you’re away. I work a part time job with a pretty consistent schedule while also going to school online. I plan my days to make sure I can give each pet the attention, exercise, and companionship they need—whether that’s early-morning potty breaks, midday check-ins, or consistent evening routines. On a weekly basis, I dedicate time for longer walks, and special care for senior pets. When pets stay in my home, they become part of the family. I create a calm, safe, and structured environment where they can relax and settle in comfortably. I maintain consistent feeding schedules, provide plenty of playtime and walks, and make sure they always have access to fresh water and cozy resting spots. I pay close attention to their routine, preferences, and any special needs—whether that’s extra potty breaks for puppies or a quiet space for senior pets.

About: I’ve had many different dogs and cats since I was old enough to remember. From training my puppies to saving one of my dogs life, I’ve done it all! It would be a pleasure to care for your dog like it’s my own when you’re not able to! I work part time from home with my animal loving 2 year old daughter. We have almost unlimited time to care for your pet and we love to be outside walking and playing as much as we can! We have 2 cats indoors and 1 indoor/outdoor to keep your fur friends busy while you’re away! We would love to have our own dog but we travel too much. This means we can take all of that extra love and invest it into your fur babies while you are away! We can work with cats and dogs of all ages including training, crating, walking, bathing or just playing and snuggling!

About: I’ve spent my entire life loving and caring for animals. So much so that I’ve devoted my life to them. For the last 10 years I’ve worked as a registered veterinary technician. I’m able to handle any and all pets and anything your loved one might need. Please note that if you are planning on boarding with me I do have small children and cats, so a meet and greet is non negotiable and must be done before the stay. Please message me with any questions I’m very flexible with days and times. Basically I’m available more times than not since I only work part time away from home. Please feel free to message me with any questions on my schedule! In my house everyone is treated like family, lots of love, cuddles, and playtime. But please note, I do have two small children and cats. Due to some serious issues in the past, I do require a meet and greet first. If your pet is known to eat/ destroy blankets or toys please let me know so we can be prepared for their stay.

About: Throughout my entire life, I’ve taken care of many different kinds of animals. Whether it be for family, friends, or the ones that have belonged to me. From Guinea pigs, to pups, to reptiles. I love animals. I can’t wait to to help take care of your pup! I work very close to my home, and my office hours are 9-5 Monday-Friday. I take an hour long lunch break with which I use to let my own pups out. So I can care for the pups anytime before, during my lunch break, or after work and almost anytime on the weekends. I base my caring for animals belonging to others off of how I care for my own. With love and proper attention! I observe and act on the needs I observe/am told about.

About: I have 30+ years of pet care experience from caring for family companions as a child to running a farmed animal sanctuary (currently) and everything in between. I have worked with nearly every domestic specie and some wild too. I recently "retired" after being a nanny for a family for eight years and have transitioned to working from home so I can spend more time at the sanctuary. I would love to fill in some of my spare time caring for other's companions as it's my true passion. I'm currently working from home as a bookkeeper where I create my own schedule. I also don't have human children so other than vet appointments for our sanctuary animals, I'm very flexible. I cannot offer care in my home but I would love to help provide a calm and safe environment for your companion in your home while you're away. I'm available to feed, water, walk, play, socialize, give meds, cuddle or provide animal cleanup services.

About: I have 10 years experience caring for Dogs & Cats. I have had animals around me my whole life & I love caring for & working with them. I have trained puppies & supported older senior animals on their way out. My favorite activity is taking them on adventures outside, dependent on the animals temperament/style, some love dog parks, playing fetch, going for drives, hikes, and others just like a simple calm stroll. I also have experience watching & caring for more exotic pets such as reptiles, amphibians, snakes, and farm animals. Throughout my life I've had a few pets a Bearded Dragon, Ball Python, Cat, Dog, a horse, Chickens, and my siblings had pets as well that I helped care for. Whatever mini family member (or maybe not so mini) it is that you're looking to get care for I'm excited to meet them! At the moment I'm currently staying at home & doing this full time. When they're here all my attention will be available for your loved one. I have a small fenced in backyard that they're free to adventure in, though most their exercise will come from walks/the park as it's not that big. There are no children in the home.
