About: I grew up with a lab/pitbull mix, and have lived with other big dogs. I get along with all puppies, and am down to lounge with them, walk them, or play! I am a remote worker, so I plan to walk dogs on my lunch break (approximately 12 PM - 1 PM). I can also check in on dogs and feed them as needed. I always make sure they have food and water, and feel safe in their environment. I’m not one to push a dog out of their comfort zone, but I will always approach your puppy with kindness and consideration.
“Love the time and care she provides to my love Bell”
“Susan and her family are great with my puppy! Will definitely book again!”
“Taylor is awesome very communcive. Will use again”
About: All my life I have had dogs and cats at home. I’ve always enjoyed not only spending time with my own pets, but also my friends and neighbors pets! I’ve pet sat on many occasions for both dogs and cats (and even a turtle!). I am a pet lover and I am more than happy to take care of any other pets you have besides your doggo. I will gladly scoop some poop and feed all the pets you have! Along with dog walks, I would love to take your dog for a run too (only if they like running of course)! I can’t wait to love on your fur babies and make sure they feel comfortable and loved when you’re away from the home.
About: I have been around dogs my whole life! My mom, who works at an adoption center, not only brings multiple dogs back home with her but also owns 3 dogs! Luckily, I've been fortunate to learn the ins and outs of caring for a dog. I work everyday from 8:30-5pm but have a very flexible schedule and am able to be home for periods of time to feed/ walk/ check in. Safety is a top priorty. I want your pet to feel at home and provide a comforting enviornment!! I am very attentive and love spending time with animals!!
About: I've been relied upon by neighbors for years to dog-sit, dog-walk, and pet-sit for cats as well. I'm a big lover of all animals and grew up with dogs, cats, and even chickens! I started caring for these animals at an early age, handling tasks such as feeding, scooping litter, picking up dog droppings, and cleaning the chicken coop. We have an old cat with kidney and heart problems ourselves who needs to be pilled and have a cream applied to his ear twice a day. I understand how our pets are, quite literally, additional family members to the household, and I recognize the importance of ensuring they are loved and cared for, just like all of us!!! I’m a huge fan of walking and this fits into my daily and weekly routine. I also love the social aspect of meeting new people and pets are ALWAYS the best way to meet new people! I can easily drive to your home to walk your dog in the your neighborhood. I’m gentle, friendly and love a big scratch on an animals bottom(if they are welcome to it of course!)
About: I have fostered over 30 dogs for various shelters and have had my share of pets while doing so. I have been in other people's homes while watching their fur children trying to be there and working on training using games like fetch, or find it. I currently work at a doggy daycare and am currently doing online courses for canine behavior and training. I do have three years on my own with dog training and a total of 9 years dog training with shelters I try not disrupt their schedule while pet parents are gone. Dogs need a routine but when parents go on vacation or business trip, they will need a loving distraction until they get home
About: I would love to spend time with your pup(s) and give you peace of mind while you are traveling, busy for the day or working. I know how important pets are to families and individuals so I will treat them like my own! I also have a Golden retriever who is great with any and all size dogs. She has truly never met a person or dog that she doesn’t like! I have a flexible schedule as I work remote so I can be available based your dogs schedule. Also I frequent dog parks to get my Golden’s energy out and would be happy to take your dog(s) as well. Please let me know if you have any additional questions! I love to go on walks in the morning/early evening and spend time cuddling on the couch. What ever your dog needs, I’m available to serve! I am searching for jobs so I am on my computer at home for 2-3 hours a day, perfect for nap time. I have a very pet friendly home so the more the merrier! There is a park across the street and designated dog stations for them to potty.
“Rafaela is very punctual.”
About: With years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds and ages, I provide personalized attention to meet each pet's unique needs. I can teach puppies basic commands like sitting, shaking hands, and lying down, and I also have experience caring for senior dogs, ensuring your furry friend feels comfortable, safe, and loved. My focus is on creating a stress-free environment where dogs can be happy while their owners are away. My genuine love for animals, attention to detail, and dedication to their well-being set me apart from other sitters. I work from home, which allows me to be available and flexible to care for pets throughout the day. I can easily adjust my routine to accommodate each dog's specific needs, ensuring they receive the attention, care, and playtime they require. Your pet will never be alone for long periods and will always have company and supervision. I ensure every pet is in a safe and welcoming environment, whether at my home or my client's home. At my house, I keep the areas clean, hazard-free, and always under supervision. If caring for pets at my client's home, I follow their instructions closely, respecting the routines, spaces, and preferences of each pet. My priority is to ensure pets feel comfortable, loved, and protected at all times, providing peace of mind for both the pets and their owners.
