“Syl was so patient & caring. We needed help while out of town giving our kitty her hyperthyroid meds. Syl was able to give her the pill, and sent lots of pictures during the visit. She even sent pictures of the other kitties while on her visit as well. Would for sure use her again! Felt very comfortable with leaving her to care of our babies.”
About: I grew up in a household that bred rottweilers so I know the importance of good training and leadership with puppies. I have had many dogs in my life so I am experienced in all stages of a dogs life, including special needs dogs. I currently have two husky mixes that are high energy so I know the importance of going on a good walk. I am comfortable with all sizes of dog, from teacup to giant and ALL breeds I am currently working full time but have mornings and days off free to take care of your pets. I have a set schedule so I should be able to set a routine if you'd like I will keep your dog on a leash at all times outside of the home. I will also make sure to keep an eye on them at all times while they are in my care.
About: I grew up with dogs but became quite the cat person with age. I have 5 cats (3 rescues and 2 purebred mainecoons). I know what it's like to need a sitter and be faced with huge bills. I keep my additional cat fee low for this reason. I have experience giving allergy shots to one of our mainecoons. With demonstration and meeting the cat first, I would be comfortable giving other injections. My cats all have different foods (one is on a diet, another needs extra fiber, another is picky, and the others eat anything) so I understand the importance of making sure the food is correct for each pet. If you have a Roomba, I don't mind doing a quick house check to pick up toys and clean up messes like puke before it runs. I don't mind vacuuming scattered litter if a vacuum is nearby. If you are a shoes off household and do not provide house shoes, I'll bring disposable booties. Happy to send photo updates and give them lots of love! I am in the healthcare field and typically work 7-5:30 Monday through Thursday, off Friday Saturday Sunday. I can make visits before or after work. One of my cats is known for running away so I have learned to be very careful when opening the door. If you have a runner, please don't be nervous. I'm used to wedging my leg in the door and entering sideways with no gap at all. iykyk >.<
About: I have taken care for pets since I was 16. Usually for friends and family. I feel ready to expand and care for others’ pets. I grew up around dogs and cats and have always known that I love them. I’m entering my senior year of college for education. I run track for semo, leaving me with lots of time to care for your pets. I don’t have a fenced yard but I live on a very safe street where many walks can be provided. I also can easily crate your pet if needed. I don’t mind to travel to a park to get some running in .
About: Animal Science major who has been apart of a household with pets most of my life. I have experience with dogs of all ages, shapes and sizes along with enrichment training, fostering, pet sitting, walking and more. I've dealt with emergency scenarios with my own pets and will care for yours as if it was my own. I love all the pets and am always excited to meet more! I am currently only working under contracts and my schedule is currently very open. I am used to walking and caring for pets. Caring for pets fits in right along with my regular routine! I have a lard fenced in yard along with two friendly dogs. One is 7 year old male who is lazy and loves everyone, the other is a 1 year old border collie mix who's loves to play! Capable of keeping them separate when necessary or unsupervised. Very customizable to your pets wants and needs! I will put your pets first and make sure they have the best experience possible.
About: Me and my family have owned dogs, cats, horses, poultry, rabbits and fish since I was young! I have been relied on by my family to help care for all of these animals since I was able to! I now own a dog and have multiple cats myself and have been pet sitting since 2018! I love getting the chance to meet new pets and pet parents and helping them feel comfortable while they are away! I do work a full time job so I’m only taking drop in visit bookings currently. I will always treat your fur babies as my own and make time for them around my schedule! I treat every fur baby as if they were my own and I always grow so attached to the pets I meet. I have no problem just hanging out with them if that’s what they like to do or spending the day playing! I also am comfortable with giving any medications, just not injections, they may need!
About: I provide individual attention to each dog, along with a loving and fun environment. I recognize that each dog has its own temperament and idiosyncrasies and try to respond appropriately. While in grad school, I house sat for my cousin's dogs (two Yorkies) on a weekly basis. I also sat for several professors' dogs (and cats) for various lengths of time. My time was limited while I was in school. However, I am now retired. My time is my own, and I can give your precious pet my full time and attention. I live in a three-bedroom house and just had a new vinyl fence installed. I am also having a deck put in so, weather permitting, I can spend quality time outdoors with your dog.
“Jordan was flexible and changed plans last minute when our cat contracted a UTI just before we left town. Jordan administered her antibiotics/pain meds and kept us updated on her recovery while we were away.”
About: I have been taking care of dogs since we got our first family dog when I was 4. My husband and I have four babies of our own, plus many dogs in both sides of our family! I have experience with senior dogs, puppies, sick dogs, and dogs requiring medication including eyedrops. I also have experience with dogs of all sizes ranging from 5 pounds to over 165 pounds! Your furbabies will be well taken care of! I work full-time and go to school, but I am available to take care of your babies in the morning and evening as well as on my lunch hour, so there is no need to worry if they will have to go long hours without human interaction. My husband is also available to help out with care when needed (if okay with you. He would never go without approval). I am well versed in long and short walks with dogs as well as administering any needed medications except via injection. As a dog mom myself, I keep a watchful eye on any pup in my care to ensure their safety and wellbeing. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out!
“Mariah really helped us out when my husband and I made a last minute day trip out of town. I haven’t had the chance to meet her in person since we had already left when she confirmed she could check on dog Jett, but we look forward to meeting Mariah and using her services again. Thank you Mariah!”
About: I know the struggle is real when trying to find someone to watch your fur baby. Although, we haven't met in person, I hope to gain a bit of your trust for caring for your pet(s) with this short paragraph. Growing up, my family always had a "family" dog so since I was a young girl I have always enjoyed taking care of our pets. Now that I am an adult, I have made the choice to become a vegan because I believe all animals are worth fighting for. I spend most of my free time volunteering at a local animal shelter. My husband and I have four dogs; all of which we adopted from a local shelter. Our families and friends tease us about how much we "spoil" and "pamper" our dogs, but to us, these furry creatures, are family. With all this said, I would be honored to help take care of your furry creatures by walking them when your schedule is pressed for time, going to your home to check in while you’re away, and all together showing them the love I believe all animals deserve. While deciding on my future career, I have a bit of time on my hands. I am currently available Monday through Friday to walk and play with your fur babies. I am also available for day or night check-ins at your home. Although, I can’t stay overnight with your pet(s), I am more than happy to go to your home several times throughout the day and spend time with your furry family while you are away. I will meet your pet’s needs in whatever environment you and your pet feel most comfortable! Does your pet need company for a few hours, a quick potty break, or a long walk? I am happy to help!
About: I've taken care of at least 3 dogs and 2 cats at one time since I was 12, all large breed dogs. I've also helped to break aggressive dogs so they could be adopted. I've raised a litter of Golden Retriever puppies and gave all their shots myself as well. I've sat for many of my friends and neighbors dogs/cats while they were on vacation. I make my own hours so I am available full time to take care of or just give your pet the extra attention they need! I can do what ever my client prefers, if they want me to hang out a bit with the dog or even take them to the park for a walk or just do what needs to be done to keep the dog as happy as possible while their owner is gone. I am flexible!
About: I have enjoyed taking care of a variety of dogs and cats since I was a kid. I also know how to administer insulin to diabetic dogs. I have plenty of time in my daily routine to care for pets Monday through Friday from 6am to 3pm. I have one small senior dog of my own as well that I take care of. I offer drop-in visits for pets at the client’s home. I will take your dog to the restroom, feed and refill water bowl as necessary, as well as play with them to keep them entertained, or just love on them if they’re not much into playing. The visit can also include a short walk. For cats, I will clean litter boxes, refill food and water as necessary, and play with them or just give them love if that’s what they prefer.
About: I’ve owned dogs all my life and have been a hands on caretaker for about 6-7 years. I’ve also got a certificate from the American Red Cross in Cat and Dog First Aid. I’m available all day Monday through Thursday and periodically throughout the weekend. I’m also available to do overnights Monday through Thursday. I’m available to do short walks, feedings, and potty breaks on the Weekends. I brush my dog once a day and take her outside into the back yard for fresh air. I want potential clients to know that I am prepared for anything. I have a First Aid Kit for Dogs and Cats.

It made me feel better knowing they weren’t just sitting alone all day. Thanks Shawna! 10/10 would recommend.”
