“Suzanne was great! She worked with me for just the right schedule of stop-in visits and overnights to take care of my anxious cat. Watered plants and generally looked after everything. Made the trip better knowing she was here.”
About: Since I was six, I’ve always been surrounded by dogs whether that be my own or more neighbors. When needed I have watched my neighbors pets, college friends, and currently I take care of my own cat Ms. Wednesday! I am always flexible to the needs of the pet. When needed I can adjust my flexible work schedule to meet the needs of your furry family member! When caring for pets, I make sure they have 110% of my attention. I am very cautious of my surroundings near and far in order to plan safety accordingly. I treat all pets as my own child!
About: I have taken care of dogs of every kind since I was a teen. In my opinion they are all the "goodest" boys and girls and deserve the best life possible. I know how difficult it can be to trust a beloved pet with a stranger but you can rest assured that your baby is in the best hands! I have a pretty open schedule and would love nothing more than to devote some of my free time to your pets! Rest assured that your pet will be provided with undivided attention and receive the best of care. I care for your pet to the full extent of your instructions. Have a list that's longer than most books? That's fine, mine is probably longer when I have to leave my babies in someone else's care. Carefree and no list at all? That works too, I can go with the flow. Whatever instructions you give, no matter how silly you might think they are, I will follow to keep your pet in the routine they already know.
“While we were gone on a day trip, Penni came twice to let my 4 doxies out. She let me know when she got there and left, sending pics as well. We returned late that evening to find happy pups! We will use her again when the need arises.”
About: I have had pets and been surrounded by animals my whole life. I currently have two boy cats named Loki and Oscar and a chihuahua named Yogi. I have taken care of cats, kittens, special needs pets, and all types of dogs from newborn to senior. I am currently working an 8-5 Monday through Friday I have open availability until next Monday August 26th and going forward I’ll be available for visits before 8 and after 5 M-F and open availability on the weekends. At my home I provide a water fountain, toys, treats and a separate space if needed. We also have a fenced in yard and a puppy pool! I spend genuine time and patience with each animal I care for to ensure there is a trusting relationship. No one wants to be stressed out especially not your beloved pet and I’ll take the extra mile to provide that comfort.
About: I have been in the veterinary field and pet sitting field for over 10 years, I love animals so much! and will care for yours with love and respect, as if they were my own. I am a full time veterinary technician, but make time for part time pet sitting and pet transportation. I will usually do check ins between 7-8am on the weekdays and Night time check ins around 9pm depending on the week. one week I'll work Friday-Sunday and my check in may be later at night, and the next week I have the weekends free and check ins can be anytime of the day. Depending on distance from my work I can do mid day check ins. I also do over night stays, and have a spot open for 1-2 small animals- same family for boarding. I follow every instruction that is left for me, go above and beyond to keep pet happy. I take pictures and send updates always. I make sure my pets are always left comfortable and safe, well fed and happy. I have a separate, very spacious room where i can safely board 1-2 cats of the same family, or one cat and one small dog, same family. I do have cats of my own but they do not have access to that area. I also accept small critters- reptiles as well. Cage and supplies will need to be provided.
“Kim was amazing! She went above and beyond and I’m so grateful! She communicated wonderfully and sent plenty of pics while I was away. This was the first time I left my cats with a sitter and wasn’t sure what to expect, but Kim was so wonderful and made it such an easy process. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing my girls were well taken care of! 💞”
“Kasie was wonderful and patient with my two kitties. She texted me every time she was come to and from the house. She sent pictures and updated me on their feedings. I highly recommend booking with her!”
“Caitlin was great. My old sick cat needed daily medication which is difficult to get her to take. Caitlin made sure she got it every day. She sent me photos and messages every day. Highly recommend her.”
About: I have always been an animal lover! Will love and take great care of your fur babies! I have 2 dogs of my own daisy and mama. I have cats/kittens/and horses too! I am free to check in on your beloved fur babies on Wednesdays-Saturdays at any time. I do walk-ins, dog walking, dog bathing small dogs only and will play/love/feed etc. with your fur babies!!! When doing drop-Ins I can check the mail for you, do light housekeeping, take trash outside for an extra cost. I do have a lot of experience in working with animals. I can also bathe your sweet fur babies if that is something you would want. It will be an extra cost. Can’t wait to meet everyone! I have a mix breed named Daisy and Mama and they both stay with us inside at night time and when we get off work. When we are gone she is in her kennel outside, she has a dog house, a trampoline type bed, a fan in the summer so she won’t get too hot, and a heater in the winter to keep her warm. She is very spoiled!! I also have a horse named Dixie who keeps her company when we are at work.
About: I am a Army Vet. I also have worked with Rescues and animal control to help train Aggressive dogs. I volunteer my free time to helping out shelters and rescues. I have helped out from Great danes to Dacshunds. I love all dogs not matter their size or tempermant. I have a wolf currently living with me but hes to old for or normal walks and hikes so I figured I would try this out. I do use crates for my dog and have found they offer a safe spot for my older dog. My average walk is around 2 miles I have been known to walk more that 8 miles. If we go on a long walk there is no extra charge I just want the dogs to enjoy it.
About: I have been around a wide variety of dog breeds and personalities since as far back as I can remember. I got my first puppy at around 3 years old, and my family and friends have always had dogs and cats. I have watched over not only dogs and cats, but other animals such as horses, goats, cows, etc. I have house sat multiple times for families who have more than one dog or cat (sometimes both) and for families that have dogs/cats with special needs. I also have references upon request. I now have an Australian Cattle dog who is my best friend, and goes with me everywhere. He is a high energy breed, so if I’m working with a dog who exhibits that same trait, I am familiar with how to exercise that dog mentally and physically so that they are stimulated and maintain a healthy lifestyle. I am currently a stay at home dog mom, so my schedule is usually free so that I can assist with any pet related tasks. Whenever I have someone watch over my dog, I expect them to stick to the routine and lifestyle that is given to him on a regular basis. Likewise, when I am watching over someone else’s pet I hold myself to that same expectation.
About: my family has had pets for a long time now, and i’ve been helping take care of them since i was around 8 years old: feeding them, playing with them, taking them on walks, giving baths, etc. a couple years before i moved out, i helped train both of our bulldogs, so if you need me to stay on top of discipline, i can handle that! currently my scheduled is a bit scattered, but once it falls into place a bit better i’ll be working friday-monday and i’ll be mostly trying to schedule appointments on thursdays (or any day my job doesn’t schedule me) i have a fully fenced yard and one of my roommates has a friendly dog to keep yours company; however, if they don’t get along, it’s no issue at all for me to take them inside and let them out to use the restroom whenever
