About: What sets me apart is my hands-on experience raising and caring for dogs at all stages of life. Both of my dogs have successfully completed three levels of obedience training, with me as their handler, so I understand how to reinforce good behavior and structure. I bring patience, consistency, and plenty of love to every walk, play session, or stay, making sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for. I work full-time as a teacher, which means I have summers off and weekday availability after 3 PM. Walking and staying active are part of my daily routine, and I’ve found those habits are even more enjoyable with furry companions by my side. Pets fit naturally into my life, and I love making their walks and playtime a highlight of the day. Whether in my home or yours, I treat every pet like family. I follow their routines for feeding, walks, and playtime, and make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and love. I keep their environment safe, clean, and comfortable, and adjust my care to each pet’s personality and needs

About: What sets me aside from the average sitter is I don't just think of your animals as just your pet but as your own human kid. I treat it as it's equal and deserves my eyes and not my phones camera lens. Your pet, and everyone's pet human child deserves a fresh mind. I can help them even achieve any goals/tricks. I'll come with a handful of treats ready to start our day. Pet Care fits in my routine by a breeze. I'm a stay at home mom of 2. I wake up early prepare breakfast, pack lunches, get them ready and off to school they go. I get home do a little morning clean up as I do that I can easily exercise and play with your pet. After the morning clean up (which can always wait till later) I'm ready for your pet and Mine's adventure. At my home I have a fenced in yard, that's a decent size for small or large pets. I am close to dog friendly walking parks/trails. My neighborhood has a sidewalk that wraps around the block so its a nice for morning stroll.

About: I’ve been around all sizes of dogs since I was born and I only want to give them the very best lives possible. I’ve been training my golden doodle/great pyrenees mix (Oakley) as a therapy dog since I’ve had him but he was recently severely injured, paralyzing the back half of his body, so I did passive range of motion, took him on walks with a harness on the back of his body, stimulated his paw nerves, stretched him out, manually expressed him, and tried my best to give him all the love I could until he eventually was able to walk again. About a month of this and he can now walk and function normally (with a wobble and some additional clumsiness) but I’m thankful for his health every single day and this has helped me become more in tune with what he needs and how best to support and care for dogs. I work at a local coffee shop so my hours are very flexible and I work fairly short hours so there’s always a point in the day when I’m free. I always try to get a certain amount of steps, so walking and taking care of dogs is perfect for me. We have a large yard perfect for running and I take my dogs out on leashes for walks and we have a pond in our backyard to walk around.

About: I’ve had my dog for more than 5 years and he’s my best friend. I’ve always loved dogs and when I have family or friends going on vacation or leaving just for a few hours I’m always sitting for them. I have the energy to go on walks or runs with dogs or even play around with cats. I am currently unemployed because of family issues and most times I am free to do anything. There are days where I take a family member to their doctor appointments and I just work around them. When I take care of pets in clients home I always ask them important questions like, is your dog potty train?, when to feed him/her?, are they okay with me going outside to play with them?, are they allowed on the furniture or not, and etc: I always make sure to know about they pets before they leave them with me.

About: Hi there, I’m Brittany. Animals make me happy. When I see a pet, I see a child. They are a member of the family. They have the sweetest souls and biggest hearts and I wouldn’t treat them any other way. I have one dog and I was raised with 3 dogs and 2 cats. I have always been an animal lover and I always will be. Every day I take my dog on at least one walk and many times I walk him multiple times per day. I treat my fur babies like family and how I would want to be treated. I am not only here to help you during your busy schedule but to become a friend to you and your fur baby. To house sit during longer durations, I can travel to anywhere. I would need to bring my golden retriever with me if your pets like to socialize and make new friends, he loves other dogs and gets along with them great, he is very social and has been to many dog parks and households with pets, if not I may be able to find someone to take care of him for me during that time. For drop in visits, I can assist on my own or bring my dog for some company. I am also available on certain days for doggy day care and boarding. When I have a dog stay with me I treat that dog like my own and it would have an amazing friend to play with. Pets are allowed on furniture, I have treats, toys, tons of dog beds, and a fenced in yard. I will also take your dog out on walks and play fetch or tug to burn energy. If you choose to book me, thank you for trusting me and I won’t disappoint you! My schedule is very flexible, and I would love to help accommodate what you need help with, whether that is daily or weekly. I am always picking up new work bookings. I have booked a lot off of rover so I have additional referrals if you would like them! I will treat your animals and home as if it were my own, with love, trust, and respect. I have helped out for many years taking care of people's pets and homes. I have many references.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 8, when I got my own puppy. With my family i have 2 dogs, a Beagle and a Puggle. Growing up, I also had a Yellow Lab. I have pet sat multiple times in the past few years, both overnight and daily check ins. I love dogs of all ages, breeds, and sizes, and treat all dogs I encounter as if they were my own. I have a very open schedule that allows for me to pet sit at any time throughout the day, and any day of the week. I would not be able to care for pets in my own home, only in client’s homes. I am willing to fulfill whatever needs are presented by each pet, whether that be getting to know them slowly to allow them to build trust, snuggling with them so they aren’t lonely while their owners are gone, or any other needs they may have.

About: I have had a variety of different pets throughout my life. I like to get to know your pets personality so I can better care for him or her. Each and every animal is unique in their own way! I work an 8-5 full-time job but I need something to do that is out of office after work. Being active with your pet will benefit me and them. Playtime and talking to your pets are essential to their happiness it makes them feel secure when they get the attention that they need. Potty breaks as often as needed and lots of exercise!

About: I have always had cats and dogs. As an adult, I have adopted multiple senior dogs and let them live out their last months and years in a calm, loving home. At gatherings, I’m the person who can usually be found holding the host’s cat or playing with their dog. I love everything about caring for pets and thought this would be a great thing to do in my spare time. As a teacher, I have a nice regular schedule that allows me to be available on weekends as well as all summer long. Evening care is also considered depending on the need! I can carefully and respectfully enter your home and care for your pets. Whether they need a meal, a potty break, a snuggle, or a walk; whatever you request, I can deliver. I understand the importance of being extremely careful not to let a pet get loose as this is something I worry about when I travel. I always enter and exit the home carefully. Your fur baby is the most important thing to me.

About: Pet enthusiast looking to share my love and compassion for animals in exchange for fair rates. I have ample room so prolonged pet watching be it overnight or long-term is available. Flexible rates for weekly, biweekly or monthly. Your Fur-baby will be in wonderful loving hands. I am a independent contractor so very flexible schedule to give the care that is needed to your pal(s). Can set aside ample time for him or her. I provide care that is aligned with how a pet owner would want their pet taken care of. I treat pets like the fur mamma I am, with loving compassion and patience knowing that a pet is a part of the family first and an animal second respecting each individual's own set of needs and natural behavior. I am going to school for vet tech so boarding and taking care of pets is not jus a gig it is a passion and a lifelong love.

Emily took great care of our fur kids, 2 cats and a dog, with short notice. Her love of animals is readily apparent and she is a kind communicator with humans too. Thank you for providing excellent care on short notice too!

She kept us fully updated with pics and updates everyday! She by far is an amazing sitter and I know the dogs love her! Can’t wait to have her back!!!🙏 10000% recommend!!
