About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 10. I’ve had a dog of my own until recently I dog sit for my parents when they go on vacation a couple times a year. I also am currently puppy sitting/training a couple days a week until June 2025. I’m the oldest of 4 so I was always the one who was responsible for walking, feeding and everything else dog related which in turn is what made me Love dogs. I love them more than people. I am not working so I am fully dedicated to your fur babies to play, take walks, go to the park we will even make treats together. I have a fully fenced in yard for monitored potty breaks and sun stretching time. I have a water station in the back room for the dogs use anytime, we will come up with a feed schedule together. I can crate your dog if you prefer if that’s what they are used to but not mandatory as I allow dogs on hooman spaces. They will have their own bed/toy area for comfort.

About: What sets me apart is my extensive experience caring for a wide variety of pets, from large and small dogs to exotic cats, as well as managing unique and high-security home environments for diverse individuals. I’ve cared for animals with a range of needs, from basic care to more complex requirements, ensuring they receive the personalized attention they deserve. My flexibility, reliability, and ability to adapt to any situation make me a trusted choice for both pet and house sitting. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine because I work from home, allowing me to provide constant attention and care. My flexible schedule ensures I can accommodate feeding, walks, playtime, and any special needs throughout the day. Being married and without children, I can fully dedicate my time and energy to making sure your pets feel loved and well cared for while you’re away. When caring for pets in their home, I prioritize maintaining their usual routine to ensure they feel comfortable and secure. This includes feeding, walks, playtime, administering any medications, and providing plenty of affection and attention. I also keep the home tidy, respecting your space as if it were my own, and can manage additional tasks like watering plants or collecting mail. My goal is to provide reliable, stress-free care so both you and your pets feel at ease.

About: I have owned and cared for many pets over the years, including dogs, cats, reptiles, fish, and birds - I can care for just about anything! My hours vary on the week as I am a full-time veterinary assistant, but my availability will ALWAYS be up to date with as much information as possible. I am typically fully available at least twice a week, and available after/before work other days. I am more than comfortable on walks, jogs, and doing backyard playtime. Additionally I am comfortable giving all forms of medication and I am a certified Cat Friendly Veterinary Professional.

About: I grew up always having/taking care of dogs. I also pet sit regularly now. I love animals and would love to have this as something to do outside of work! I also have two kitties named Blue and Harley, so have a lot of experience with cheeky cats, too. I currently work from home, so all I need is my hotspot and laptop. I can house sit for you basically for any length of time and any day/time. I have reliable transportation. I try to leave the home as good as or better than I found it. I truly do love caring for animals.

Shelby is a loving and caring pet owner. My partner and I have had her stay with our two cats on weekends we are out of town. She is great about providing updates and ensuring that our pets are getting the love and attention they need. I would recommend her to any pet parent who is looking for someone who will care for their fur babies as if they were her own.
