About: What sets me apart is the time, attention, and genuine care I give every pet. I’m home full-time, so your pet won’t be left alone for long hours—I’m able to stick closely to their routine, provide companionship, and quickly respond to any needs. I’m also very observant, which is especially important when caring for senior pets or those with special needs. I have experience with both dogs and cats, and I’m patient with shy, anxious, or high-energy pets. Whether it’s giving extra belly rubs, helping a senior pet move around comfortably, or keeping a puppy on track with their training schedule, I focus on making sure each pet feels safe, loved, and happy. I treat every animal like they’re part of my own family. Since I stay home to support my family, I have the time and flexibility to give pets the attention they deserve. Pet care is already part of my daily routine—I’m used to feeding on schedule, cleaning up, taking pets out, and making time for play and exercise. Being home allows me to respond quickly to their needs and keep a close eye on their well-being. I genuinely enjoy the companionship and love creating a safe, calm environment where pets feel comfortable and cared for. Whether pets are in my home or I’m visiting theirs, I prioritize keeping their routine as close to normal as possible to help them feel secure. At my home, I provide a clean, pet-safe environment with regular feeding, potty breaks, playtime, and quiet time. I follow any special instructions, like medications or preferred toys, and keep pets supervised and comfortable. When I’m in a client’s home, I respect their space and routines. I make sure pets are fed, walked, played with, and cleaned up after according to the owner’s instructions. I also take time to bond with the pet, so they feel safe while their owner is away. I keep in touch with updates and photos, so owners know their pet is in good hands.

About: I love meeting and caring for dogs, and i live in a simple and comfortable home for new dogs to come and explore. I have a playful 8 y/o Maltese that makes for a great play date. I work from home and have my own dog, so my home is well set up for fur friends to come and hang out at! I live alone in a largely spaced 1BR with my dog. Because I have a dog, the house is doggy proof with no snacks or choking hazards lying around.

About: I have several years of experience in dog care, I offer a personalized, loving and responsible service. I specialize in the care of puppies, as well as in the accompaniment of older dogs. What sets me apart is my focus on the emotional well-being of each pet: I don't just take care of it, but I connect. I adapt to their routines, their fears and their needs, as if they were part of my own family. In addition, I send daily updates with photos and comments so that the guardians are always calm. My commitment is to create a safe, stimulating and loving environment, so that your furry friend is happy even when you are not around. Pet care is an essential part of my day-to-day life. I organize my routine according to the needs of each furry friend, ensuring enough time for walks, feeding, play, rest and personalized attention. Whether it's during the week or on weekends, I always reserve specific spaces to provide quality care, without haste and with a lot of dedication. For me, it's not just another task of the day: it's a responsibility that I enjoy and value deeply. Each visit or walk is an opportunity for connection, affection and trust. Whether I take care of pets in my home or in the client's home, my priority is always their safety, well-being, and comfort. I make sure that each space is safe, free of dangerous objects, and adapted to their needs (such as quiet rest areas, play areas, and constant access to fresh water). In my house, dogs are integrated as part of the family: they are not in cages or locked up, but they share spaces with me, with constant supervision, daily walks, and lots of love. I follow their usual routines to make them feel at home, and I keep the environment clean, ventilated, and respectful of the environment. When the care is in the client's home, I absolutely respect their instructions, their rules, and the pet's space. I maintain the cleanliness, routine, and tranquility of the animal to avoid any stress. In addition, I maintain fluid communication with the guardians so that they are always aware of how their furry friend is doing.

About: Hello, I’m Jen, a passionate dog lover and advocate. I have over twenty years of experience caring for puppies, elderly dogs, and special needs dogs. I have also fostered for many rescues over the years. Each dog has a unique personality and different preferences. I look forward to learning about your pet and providing the best care that they need. Whether hosting your pet in my home or just doing a home visit, my top priority is to keep them safe, happy, and comfortable. They will be spoiled with love and affection, and I will take care of them just as I do my own. I work from home, so my schedule is very flexible and your pet won’t be alone whether they’re staying with me here or I’m caring for them in your home. I take them out every couple hours, with one longer walk at Pan pacific park, which is across the street from my place and a fantastic place for people and dog watching. I have a friendly mellow dog if yours likes canine company. We have a fenced back patio that is perfect for lounging in the sun. My neighborhood is safe, quiet, and has tons of grassy area. I like to get to know your/your pet’s preferences so we can create a care plan that’s tailored just for them!
