Dog Sitting Krugerville

About: Animals have always held a special place in my heart, and caring for them is something I genuinely love! Through my volunteer work at a local animal shelter, I’ve had the opportunity to work with dogs of all different ages, sizes, personalities, and energy levels. From energetic pups who love long walks and outdoor adventures to shy, nervous dogs who need a little extra patience and reassurance, I understand that every animal has their own personality, preferences, and needs. I’ve gained hands-on experience walking dogs, recognizing behavioral cues, helping anxious dogs feel more comfortable, and providing positive, enriching experiences. I especially enjoy getting dogs outside to explore, exercise, and enjoy their surroundings while making sure they feel safe and supported. Whether your pup loves a good adventure, leisurely sniff walks, or simply having someone nearby for companionship and affection, I’m happy to meet them where they are. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care, and I take that responsibility seriously. My goal is to make sure your pet feels loved, comfortable, and cared for while giving you peace of mind through thoughtful communication and regular updates! Pet care is already a meaningful part of my regular routine! I enjoy spending time outdoors, staying active, and volunteering with animals at my local shelter, so incorporating walks, playtime, and companionship into my day comes naturally. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate quality time and attention to the pets in my care. I particularly enjoy morning and daytime walks, but I’m also happy to coordinate visits around your pet’s established routine and individual needs. Whether you’re looking for regular walks, occasional drop-in visits, or care while you’re away, I value being dependable, communicative, and consistent. I understand how important routines are for animals and always do my best to make their days feel as normal, comfortable, and enjoyable as possible! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being will always be my top priorities. Through my experience volunteering with shelter animals, I’ve learned how important it is to pay attention to body language, recognize signs of stress or discomfort, and adjust my approach to meet each animal’s needs. When caring for pets in their own homes, I respect their familiar routines, feeding schedules, exercise needs, and any specific instructions you provide. I take care to ensure doors and gates are secure, leashes and harnesses fit properly, and pets are supervised appropriately during walks and visits. I understand that some animals need extra patience, reassurance, or space, and I never believe in forcing interactions. Building trust takes time, and I want every pet to feel safe and comfortable in my care. I also believe communication is an important part of responsible pet sitting. I’ll provide updates and photos, share anything important I notice, and make sure you know how your pet is doing while you’re away. My goal is to care for your pets and respect your home with the same attention and consideration I would want for my own!

“Alexandrea is nice and sweet with my cat hocus. Spent decent amount time also playing with hocus time during the visit after completing the routine.”

About: I’ve always had cats and dogs (and 9 other species) in my home, and I truly love all the fur babies in the whole wide world! Your pets are family, and I treat them that way. I’m attentive, organized, and detail-oriented (from my teaching background). I will provide expert, dependable care so your pets feel safe, comfortable, loved, and right at home. I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions, giving meds, and helping pets who have special needs. I’m also big on communication (and sending pictures) so you have peace of mind while you’re away. My home is fun, loving, and full of attention. I’ll make sure your pets get plenty of affection, playtime, and care. I can’t wait to meet your fur babies! My wife is a teacher so she is always home during the evenings and weekends. I work from home and enjoy having the extra company around the house. I have a fenced back yard and a big playful bernadoodle that loves to have friends over. (My dog can be relocated if your animals do not get along with others.) We live around a lake with plenty of great walking trails and big fenced in properties, lots of places to get good fresh air around us. Typically I take my dog somewhere to play of walk in the mornings, relax and get some work done until the afternoon, then try to get another walk in. We have lots of toys to play with and do lick mats and scent training games if weather is yucky.

I have a dog and cat at home and I treat them like family, because they are! I have potty training experience, as well as caring for sick dogs who need special attention and care! My day revolves around my dogs and cat. I make sure they have everything they need. Each day, I spend time outside playing fetch with my dogs and making sure they get their energy out! We also go for walks around the neighborhood regularly! When we are inside, I cuddle with my cat and play with him when he wants to! I make sure all objects within reach are safe and not harmful to our pets. I make sure they feel safe and comfortable in our home, and when we go to the dog park or visit a friend. My pets are truly my #1 priority and I want to make sure they are always taken care of!

About: Ive been caring for dogs for 6+ years and genuinely love building trust with every pet I meet! I’m very patient and attentive, and I adapt to each dog’s personality. Whether they’re playful, shy, or need extra comfort. I’ve helped with everything fro daily walks to feeding, bathing, and just being a calm, safe presence. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always make sure they feel secure, loved, and understood. Pet sitting fits naturally into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize visits, walks, and check ins throughout the day. I plan my time carefully so each pet gets consistent attention, care, and companionship.

About: I have taken care of dogs my whole life. All ages and sizes, but I am especially good with older dogs, as I have one. I am currently still in school so weekends are preferred, or any time after 4:45. But I still take care of my four pets daily. I care for my pets with many walks and lots of backyard time, and plenty of brushing all that loosened fur off, and bath times.

About: I’ve had dogs since 7th grade, so I’ve been caring for pets for many years. I’ve dog-sat for my aunt and sister regularly, and I also have two dogs of my own. I’m experienced with feeding, walking, playtime, and administering medication if needed. Pets in my care get plenty of attention, exercise, and socialization in a safe and loving environment I have two dogs and plenty of experience caring for pets. I go to school every day, but I’m home most of the time, so I can give pets plenty of attention, walks, and love.

I make sure pets are comfortable, safe, and happy whether I’m caring for them in my home or at theirs. I provide regular feeding, fresh water, playtime, walks, and lots of attention. We have a dog park nearby where I can take them for extra exercise and socialization. My two dogs are super playful and friendly, so pets in my care can enjoy fun, positive interactions.

“Mckenzie is the perfect person to watch your loved one! Everything she did was perfect. She even made my my old dog come out and be all peppy and happy and loving. Not that he hasn’t already but she really made him come out of his shell. I highly recommend her. We loved her.”

About: I treat every dog like they're my own; patient, attentive, and genuinely happy to spend time with them. I'm reliable and communicative, so you'll always know how your pup is doing while you're away. I'm comfortable with dogs of all ages and energy levels, and I take the time to learn each dog's individual routine and quirks rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. Weekends are when I'm fully available and focused on pet care; no rushing between other commitments. That means consistent walk times, unhurried playtime, and someone who's actually present rather than checking the clock. If you need reliable dog walks or drop-in visits, that's exactly the window I keep open." For drop-in visits, I follow your dog's normal routine as closely as possible which includes feeding times, potty breaks, and any specific instructions you leave, so there's minimal disruption while you're away. I always do a quick check of food/water and make sure the home is secure before I leave. For walks, I go at your dog's pace rather than rushing, and I'm attentive to their comfort, always checking for signs of overheating, giving water breaks, and using leash/collar setups you're comfortable with. I keep you updated with the Rover app so you know how each visit went

About: Hi pet parents! I’m a lifelong animal lover with 3 years of hands-on experience working at a busy dog boarding and daycare facility as well as being certified in dog CPR. I’ve cared for pups of all shapes, sizes, ages, and personalities,from playful puppies to gentle seniors,and I’m comfortable administering medications when needed as well as following feeding instructions to the letter. Growing up with both dogs and cats has given me a natural understanding of their quirks, needs, and love languages. Whether it’s belly rubs, playtime, quiet cuddles or just a calm presence when you're away, I’m here to make your pet feel safe, happy, and right at home 🐾 **Please note I do work during the week 8:30-5pm I am a part time college student and part time employee with a flexible schedule ready to meet your needs whether that be during the week, weekends or holidays. I have 3 years of experience in professional pet care, I am certified in dog CPR and I have had dogs and cats my whole life. There is no one better to match your babys' energy and give them the same level of love and care I give my own pets.

About: I have cared for dogs, cats, chickens, fish, etc. for as long as I can remember. I am a very reliable worker and committed to care for your pets! I am currently enrolled in college and looking for some side hustles to earn some extra money! Getting to play with your pups is an added bonus! I can easily crate, feed, walk, play, etc. with your fur babies! I am a very patient person so handling your pets that may be a little sassy isn’t a problem!

About: I’ve recently grown to love taking care of dogs. The mindset I had when I walked into my first dog sitting job is not the mindset I have today. I felt nervous of the responsibility and risk, but now, I am confident, the playfulness of dogs in general lowers the stress of the job! I enjoy time with dogs and understanding them for the future when I can have my own. I also have a semester of experience with animal management from my senior year, giving me the opportunity to groom dogs, provide hygiene and play voluntarily. The opportunity also allowed me to study behaviors and important things to keep in mind about caring for dogs. Presently, I work as a host on the weekends, normally just a morning or a night shift, but if requested two weeks ahead of time, I could request days off, therefore I am able to be available all day as needed! Although Mondays - Wednesdays I have classes on campus. Mondays and Wednesdays I’m non-negotiably unavailable 11-4 pm. Tuesdays I am only unavailable 12-2 pm. Overall, besides my class schedules, I can make availability open! My home is normally not an option for care due to young children present. In client’s homes, I remain present at the house all day unless an important matter comes up, I will temporarily leave, not for long. I like to include playtime, keep the dogs busy and make sure they behave using tactics with treats. I prefer to stick to a consistent schedule throughout the days such as specific feeding times, time of day to walk the dogs, and any house maintenance schedules I should be aware of. I am able to sleep comfortably with dogs if wanted and walk them often, as long as the dog is not beyond my strength to handle.

About: I don’t just walk dogs — I read their body language, match their pace, and make every outing feel like their favorite adventure, and fun. I shape my day around the pets I care for. That means whether your pup needs a morning stroll, a midday break, or evening exercise, I make sure their needs come first in my schedule. When I dog sit, I treat your pup and your home with the same care and respect I would want for my own pets and home.

“Ray was a big help with taking care of my dog on such short notice. Great communication, sent picture/ video updates after every visit, and was polite. I recommend him to anyone and I will definitely be using him again when I need. Thanks, Ray!”
