About: I’ve had dogs my whole life! I have helped friends and families take care of their fur babies for about 9 years now, from feeding, to walking, and even snuggling, I’ve always been there when they needed! I even have my own fur baby Athena. I’m currently a stay at home mom, so my schedule is pretty open! I love a good chance to love on people’s fur babies though! I have a fenced in yard and cozy home for fur babies, while I am not currently accepting in home due to my dog currently, I would more than love to come feed and take care of yours!
About: I stand out from other sitters because I genuinely care. Growing up I wanted to be a veterinarian. Your animal will not be mistreated or neglected. I’m new here but if you give me a chance to spend time with your fur baby, you won’t regret it!🥰 I can work with your schedule. I make my own schedule at my job, so it will make things easier. All I ask is that you let me know in advance. Thank you. I have a Very safe environment for your animal. I will not animal-sit more than ONE clinent’s animal(s) at a time for safety reasons, But if that one client has more than one animal, I don’t mind. Thank you for understanding.
About: Ever since I was a little girl I’ve loved animals. I think fur babies are the sweetest thing because although they’re only with you for a little of their lives, you’re with them for all of theirs. I currently have a Shih Tzu & tuxedo cat of my own named Marble who are big babies. I currently work remotely Monday-Thursday 8:30 AM-4:30 PM so I’ll be home just about the whole day with your furry ones! Potty breaks, walks, and movie nights here won’t be a problem! I have a large yard next to my house so potty breaks won’t be a problem. Also I have an adult fixed Shih Tzu that loves naps, belly rubs, and playing to keep your fur one company!
