About: I grew up with a Lab, Goldendoodle, and Bichon Frisé and have volunteered at animal shelters, including Operation Kindness. As a med student living away from my own dog during clinical rotations, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust. I’d love to give your pup plenty of walks, playtime, and affection so they feel like they’re spending time with a friend, not just a sitter! I’m currently on clinical rotations, so my schedule varies from month to month, but I often have weekdays off! I plan my availability ahead of time and will always communicate clearly about the days and times I’m available. I’d love to use my days off to take your pup on walks and spend some quality time with them! I have a fenced yard and care for one mini goldendoodle who is 4 years old. I live in a new community and have a park and walkway for dogs

About: I’ve taken care of family and friend’s pets for years. I also have experience caring for my own senior dog. I interned at the animal shelter in High School. I work from home and am free to care for your pet anytime. I can walk them around their neighborhood, feed them, give them medication, clean up after them, let them outside, etc. at anytime you need me to. I cannot bring your pets to my home since my dog is not friendly, however I can walk them and can stay at your house to ensure they are safe and cared for. I can do any special rituals your pet may need, I can clean up after them if they have an accident. I will watch them attentively to make sure they are not ill and are eating properly. I will ensure your pet is happy while you attend to your own business.

About: I’ve had 3 small dogs, 1 large dog, 3 cats, and 2 fish tanks. I’ve always cared about animals so it comes natural to me to want to take care of them. Before i leave for college i will make sure your pet is well taken care of and has someone taking them on regular potty breaks, once i get back ill take them for a walk and spend the rest of the day with them unless i have work then ill have someone taking care of them until i get back. I’ve always tried to buy the best possible things for my pets, specifically in food. For clients ill make sure your pet is well taken care of and has lots of potty breaks and walks and especially making sure that they feel loved

About: Animals have been part of my life since childhood, and I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets. With experience caring for dogs and cats, I’m calm in emergencies, respectful of routines, and committed to giving your pets safe, loving care. -As a pet parent myself, I understand the worry of leaving your fur babies with someone who may not value them as much as you do. That’s why I’ve chosen to use my free time to provide safe, dependable, and loving pet care for others in or around my community! I am currently working part time/ not working so I have availability almost anytime! My weekends are very scarce, my availability is set to no but I can work out plans or deals if it’s needed but weekends will typically cost more. I personally do not offer any other services aside from walking and home drop ins! I make sure your animals stay safe by ensuring they are always safe from vehicles/animals/ and other people whenever on walks. Meaning on the proper side of my body while walking and keeping distance from other possible distractions! (Will take to dog parks/free areas that are less likely to be busy). For in home safety I make sure that there are no threats such as fire/break in while i’m at the home. As well as make sure your pets are acting as them usual selves when I come see them. (and make sure they have plenty of water and play time!)

About: I’ve been caring for animals my entire life and have experience with dogs, cats, sick and elderly pets, and kittens. I’ve cared for an elderly dog who needed constant supervision, helped at a cat shelter, and helped nurse sick kittens back to health. I’m patient, attentive, and good at reading animal body language and respecting each pet’s individual personality and boundaries. I love playing and spending time with animals, and I’m comfortable caring for multiple pets with different needs. Most importantly, I’m great at following instructions and will make sure your pets receive the care and attention you want for them. My schedule is generally very flexible, so I’m able to work around your pet’s routine and needs. I don’t have many set weekly commitments, aside from being unavailable Saturday evenings from about 8:00–9:30 PM. I’m happy to care for pets in whatever way best fits their normal routine, whether that means walks, playtime in the yard or house, crating, or simply keeping them company. I’ll follow your instructions closely and make sure I understand your pet’s routines, boundaries, and needs before caring for them. I’m comfortable adjusting my approach to each individual pet.

About: I love dogs! I have three of my own—if I could, I would have 300. I’ve been walking dogs and caring for animals for over 30 years, and my experience spans all ages, temperaments, and needs. I’ve done everything from bottle feeding puppies to providing gentle, attentive care for senior dogs and dogs with medical needs, including administering medications and following special routines. I’m comfortable handling rambunctious, high-energy dogs who need structure, exercise, and patience, as well as shy or anxious pets who benefit from a calm, reassuring presence. My animal experience isn’t limited to dogs. I’ve also cared for horses and rabbits, so I understand the importance of species-specific care, safety, and attention to detail. I treat every animal as if they were my own, focusing on their comfort, routine, and well-being. Whether your pet needs lots of activity, extra medical attention, or quiet companionship, I’m dedicated to providing reliable, loving care you can trust. I’m a teacher, which means I have reliable availability in the evenings on weekdays. I’m also fully available during school holidays, long breaks, and throughout summer vacation. During those times, I have flexible daytime and extended availability to accommodate walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting. If you have a pet who needs consistent evening care during the school year or more frequent attention during breaks and summer, I’m happy to help and keep their routine as smooth as possible. When pets stay in my home, I focus on keeping their routine as close to normal as possible. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment with plenty of supervision, exercise, and affection. I carefully follow feeding instructions, medication schedules, and any special care needs. Dogs receive regular walks, playtime, and quiet rest, and I always prioritize comfort, especially for senior dogs or those with medical needs. I take introductions slowly when needed and make sure every pet feels secure and respected. My goal is for your pet to feel like part of the family while you’re away. Caring for Pets in Your Home When caring for pets in their own home, I respect both your space and your pet’s routine. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding, walks, medications, and household guidelines. I understand how important consistency is, especially for anxious pets, seniors, and medical cases. I provide regular updates, photos, and communication so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away. I leave your home clean and cared for, and your pet happy, comfortable, and safe.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life! I’ve worked for various horse ranches taking care of the animals and I have my very own puppy at home. Previously, I took care of senior dogs so I consider myself well-rounded with ages. I’m currently a full-time student so my weekly routine is pretty flexible at the moment! Many of my classes are online so that makes things much easier to continue to be flexible. I have 11 acres that my puppy explores and plays on, and we use a personal crate for nap times so he feels like he has his own space.

About: i’ve been an animal lover for as long as i can remember ! i grew up in a home where we always had dogs, so caring for animals has always been second nature to me. i have over 10 years of experience with dogs and cats of all breeds, ages, and personalities, from energetic puppies to sweet senior pets. i’m also a proud cat mom to my three babies, kiwi, cheese, and lydia! i’ve definitely become a bit of a crazy cat lady, but dogs will always have my heart too. i love my goofy, one of a kind mutts just as much as i appreciate the history and unique personalities of purebred animals. honestly, i just love them all! i’ve also been involved with smu’s campus cat community, helping feed community cats and participating in tnr efforts. my favorite part was finding mama cats and their tiny babies ! keeping up with all those feedings wasn’t always easy, but it was so rewarding . ♡ i’m comfortable with walks, feeding routines, bathing, basic training reinforcement, litter box care, and administering medications as instructed . i hate making the babies uncomfortable during medicine time, but keeping them healthy always comes first ! i’m also really big on communication and respecting each family’s rules ! every household is different . some families don’t mind their cats jumping on counters, while others don’t want those habits forming, and i completely understand both\! just let me know your preferences, routines, and little house rules, and i’ll do my best to keep everything consistent while you’re away. i’ll also happily send pictures and updates so you know your babies are doing well! Schedule: I’m currently working part time and have a flexible schedule that allows me plenty of time to care for cats throughout the day. I regularly help care for SMU’s feral cat community, so I’m used to feeding, socializing, and checking on cats at different times. I’m available for visits and drop ins most weekdays after 2 PM and weekends all day. I prioritize a safe, calm, and clean environment for every pet and always follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, and any specific care instructions. I make sure spaces are secure, remove hazards, and monitor pets for any changes in behavior. I currently have a puppy (a bichonpoo) and understand the importance of both love and structure. My motto is “life is too short let them sleep on the bed,” but I also believe discipline is key in shaping well behaved dogs. I’m happy to bring my puppy along for companionship if approved, but I always ask first since I respect that every pet and owner has different boundaries.
