About: Hey, I am currently in school to be a veterinarian assistant. I love animals and love taking care of the ones who cannot help themselves. I love walking therefore I enjoy walking dogs. Positive energy and very loving. I’ve had a chihuahua for about 4 years and I sometimes care for my families senior dog who has medical problems. I’ve given medication to dogs as well. I am available full time due to staying at home with my infant and going to online school. I’m a vegetarian who loves animals and taking care of them. I’ve pet sat a bunch of dogs within the last 4 years and I am looking forward to taking care of even more dogs this year and years to come.
About: I have loved all animals since I was a little girl. My mom ran a daycare in our home from when I was 2 up until I was 12 years old. I have assisted my mom in cat rescuing in our old neighborhood. We have always fed the neighborhood cats. One of my cats is a rescue cat, Miss Tiana. My oldest cat, Oreo, is from the animal shelter. He will be 5 this year on my birthday. I wish I could take every animal that I see on the streets and take them in. Caring for animals has taught me the importance of having empathy, sympathy, and compassion. My fur babies have taught me patience and that love comes from all forms. I love that I have the ability to care for another being besides myself. I want this experience to increase my love of caring for other things and beings. I currently work full time from the hours of 2-10PM Monday-Friday. I am currently in school full-time as well but it is strictly online. I am free on the weekends and before my shift starts at 2PM during the weekdays. I don’t mind dropping in during the mornings for walks, cleaning litter boxes, feedings, & playing. From personal experience, I care for my pets with the utmost care. Their litter box is cleaned 2-3 times a day. I feed them on a regular schedule. If any instructions are left for your pets, I will be sure to follow them and contact the owner if I have any questions.
About: As the family pet sitter and lifelong dog owner myself, I am incredibly comfortable around pets and would love the opportunity to help you love on your pets! I love long walks in the park, playing with toys and giving treats. I work full time, but am available before 8:30 am or after 5:30pm. My weekends have open availability to help love on your fur babies. As a Dauschund mom, I have a lot of experience with high energy, high need dogs and will love on your dogs the way I love on mine.
About: I’ve watched young puppies to older puppies and cat and treated every animal with love and respect so they feel safe, seen, and cared for. I work online so my daily work is flexible. I can work anywhere and adapt my schedule to spend time with pets throughout the day. I am great at following or creating helpful routines or help the animals feel safe and access food,water, play, sleep, walks, and fun outside activities.
About: I grew up with dogs and cats my whole life, and with a lifetime experience of caring for pets, I know how much your pet means to you. It’s not just sitting, it’s also about love, play, and genuine care from someone who’s been surrounded by animals her whole life. Your dog or cat deserves to feel at home, even when you’re away. I have big fenced backyard for dogs to run around in and a park right across from my house so I can give them walks. I am a teen volunteer for Grady once a week from 8am-12pm, and from there I have the rest of the day free to care of your pet. I have a fully fenced yard with plenty of space for them to play. I’m experienced with crates and I do own some if needed. Also, safety is my top priority, and I always follow your pet’s needs and preferences to keep them comfortable, happy, and secure.
