About: I know all of the forest trails and beautiful walking paths in LF and nearby. Your dog will be very stimulated by the sights and smells on these hikes. I am retired and can accommodate all schedules. Also, I’m a big man so I can easily care for and hike with dogs of all sizes. Whatever care or attention your pet needs, I can do. I have had cats and dogs all of my life. I am familiar with the nature of most pure-breds and all mutts.

“Christina is awesome. She takes my 5 month old puppy on walks, and she absolutely loves her. She gives updates as well so I know she’s in good hands while I’m gone at work.”

“Kraig is an exceptional human being. He goes above and beyond to make sure Junie is cared for and the house is looked after while we are away. We could not recommend him more highly!!! Thank you, Kraig, for the peace of mind that your consistency, care, and dedication provide us!!”

About: Aside from having my own personal dogs in home most of my life I have been volunteering working with and training rescues for 2 years now. Two hours in the Morning, two hours around lunch and all evenings are all free to care for the pets. Walks, fetch and training all available. If dogs are kid and animal friendly I will be able to give them lots of socialization in those environments plus lots of outdoor activity. Have experience working with dogs that don’t interact with other dogs very well.

“Paige is extremely kind, reliable, flexible, and responsible. She did three walks a day with our dog, Ralph, for over two weeks. She was very understanding about the many changes in our schedule that we made during that time. I am so grateful to have found her and look forward to working with her again in the future. Thank you so much, Paige! - NanC, Jerry, and Jessica”

About: I have been watching my neighbors dogs for the past 17 years. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and ages. Since I am young and active, I can take your dog on walks and provide plenty of exercise throughout the day. Additionally, I can provide overnight sitting and ensure your house looks occupied. I am more than happy to bring in your mail/packages, water your plants, adjust the blinds, turn on and off lights, bring garbage cans to the curb (and back) for trash pick up. I have a cat of my own named Oliver so I also have years of experience with cat care! I can come check on your feline friend and will feed, refresh water, play, and clean the litter box as needed. I am very free during the summer. During the week I can stop by anytime during the day, as well as provide overnight care. I am also free most weekends. I understand it is hard to leave your furry friend so I really do go out of my way to put pet owner's at ease. I will consistently provide updates and photos so you know you are in good hands.

“Thank you Lindsay!! Pups look so happy!!”

About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for pets of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I also have 3 years experience working at 2 different animal hospitals and 3 years experience working at a dog daycare as a client care coordinator and puppy preschool supervisor. Special skills include caring for puppies and their specific needs, caring for senior dogs including administering medications, helping dogs with mobility issues, etc. Dog enrichment is my passion! I have a ton of dog toys (that are cleaned regularly!) and assure you I will find your dogs play style, and maybe even discover a hidden play style you didn’t know about! I am currently pet sitting full time leaving me with plenty of time to play with your pups during the day while you are at work, or for overnight sleepovers during the week & weekend. I am also available for weekday walks or runs with your more active doggos. We are apartment living with quick dog park and dog beach access as well as plenty of access to fenced in yards. Also happy to stay in home depending on the needs of your pet.

“Elizabeth did a great job. Ella is a little bit of a problem dog for walkers. She is a rescue so is protective of her home and doesn’t like to leave the yard unless with me. Elizabeth got her to walk around enough to pee at least in the yard. Next time we hope a little better, out the drive and down the street a little. 🦮”

About: I grew up with animals and have always loved caring for them — mainly cats, but I can’t forget the gerbils, bunnies, reptiles, you name it! Although I’ve grown up with cats, I love dogs just as much and have spent the last 5-7 years walking and looking after dogs of all sizes for friends and family. As a babysitter, I know that pets aren’t just a part of the job — they are family! I truly enjoy spending time with animals, whether that involves long walks or some serious playtime (honestly, I think I might have more fun playing than they do). I’m well informed on pet care and safety, and I always prioritize their well-being and safety. You can count on me to be reliable, attentive, and treat your pets like my own. Caring for animals isn’t just a job—it’s truly my joy. I’m currently home from college for the summer. Having just finished a summer course, I have nothing but free time until September! I’m very flexible and happy to help where I’m needed, whether that may be scheduled in advance or on short notice. I am big on going on walks for exercise, so bringing your dog along with me is not only easy but preferable! I have a big backyard where your pet can play, but because I have two cats, I don’t take long dog stays at my home. I’m more than happy to care for your pets in your home and will always follow any instructions you provide me! I can crate your dog if needed, spend time outside for potty breaks (and clean up after!), play with them, and take them for as many walks as you (or your pet) want. I’m very experienced with house sitting through years of babysitting (most of my clients have dogs) and am very comfortable staying in your home for a few nights to keep your fur babies company. I’m a great rule follower, so let me know what it is you’d like from me and I’m happy to help you out! I’m very flexible, easy to work with, and happy to work with you to meet your pet’s unique needs.

About: I have been around animals my whole life caring for family, friends and my own animals. I am able to perform tasks ranging from walking, feeding, bathing and providing medication I currently work part time but I have plenty of time in my take to take care of your pets and all of their needs. I will respect and treat your pets and home as if they were my own. Leaving it how I found it, if not better. I will work hard to meet your pets needs.

About: From bunnies to fish to dogs to chickens, I’ve helped out with neighborhood pets since high school. I have my own dog, Gordie, who comes to college with me, so I’m used to caring for pets. I’ve gone through extensive training classes with Gordie and have developed a very good understanding his behavioral cues and how to respond. I’ve taken care of dogs of all ages and am confident in my ability to interact and connect with them. I’m working part time from home and am always around to stop in to take care of pets, go for walks, or entertain them. I can easily stop in throughout the day for check-ins and walks. I prefer mornings and afternoons but can do a final check-in during the evening too. Looking to make new animal friends! I am used to going into other people’s homes and respecting their space. Safety and security are my priorities when it comes to pets and homes. I know it can be hard for some pets to be at home by themselves, so I’ll make sure to stimulate and comfort your pet during the time I’m there.

About: I’ve only being doing sitting for a few friends in the past year but I will be sure to take care of your fur babies and keep them as safe as possible I’m currently working from 9am until 4pm. I’m available during my lunch breaks for short walks and after work to give special attention to your pets. As for the moment I wouldn’t be offering this service to clients do to my living situation but this option will be available as soon as possible.
