About: I have several years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities.

I also helped out with the daycare program a couple times a week. I am patient, attentive, and truly love spending time with dogs! I am a student, so my weekends are free, and Mondays and Fridays are very flexible for me. I can plan my daily schedule around walks and drop-ins, and I am available early every morning.

About: I’ve spent years caring for dogs and cats of all personalities, and I treat every pet like they’re part of my own little fur-family. With 6+ years of dog experience and over 20 years of cat care, I’m confident, calm, and totally in tune with what pets need to feel happy and safe. I’ve owned 7+ cats over the years, cared for many pups, and even handled medication and special routines. Friends and neighbors have trusted me for ages to feed, walk, play, cuddle, and keep their pets smiling while they’re away. I’m gentle, reliable, and always focused on giving your pets the love and attention they deserve.Lots of tail wags and purrs guaranteed. Pet care fits naturally into my day because I’m a stay-at-home parent with a very flexible schedule. I’m home often, which makes it easy for me to plan walks, drop-in visits, feeding times, and play sessions around your pet’s needs. Your pet’s comfort and safety come first in my home. I have a fully fenced-in yard for safe outdoor play and plenty of space to explore. Inside, I use gates throughout the house to keep pets out of trouble and create a calm, manageable environment. If your pet is used to structure, I can crate them as needed to keep their routine consistent. I also have two playful, friendly dogs who love making new friends and can keep your pup company—whether they enjoy gentle play or just having a buddy nearby. My goal is to make your pet feel at home, loved, and totally comfortable during their stay.
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, I’ve dog sat for friends and neighbors for the past couple years. Love all types of pets! I’ve trained my family dogs so have some experience with that aswell. My personal dog takes medication so I can handle pet care with medication assistance. I’m currently home from college this summer and working a part time job so I have a lot of availability to help out anyone who needs pet care! I can accommodate to any needs for the pet and owner. I car every much for animals so they will be handled with love and care 24/7.

About: I love all animals, but dogs hold a special place in my heart. I grew up with an Airedale Terrier and later a Welsh Terrier, which gave me a strong foundation in caring for dogs at different life stages. I also have hands-on experience supporting a senior dog - handling vet visits, acupuncture appointments, and helping him get around comfortably when his mobility declined. I’m a young professional looking to earn some extra income doing something I genuinely enjoy. In college, I lived with a friendly and affectionate pit mix who quickly became one of the most lovable dogs I’ve ever known. In addition, I’ve fostered puppies, so I’m comfortable with dogs of all ages and energy levels. I work from home and I have a very flexible schedule and am happy to work around your needs to ensure your dog gets the best care possible.
“Tyler is such a wonderful person, he's very patient and kind towards the dogs! Rescues can surprise you with new reactions, Tyler showed compassion and love and eventually the problem child learned to trust him. I will recommend Tyler to anyone who is looking for that extra help! Thank you!”
About: I have had multiple family dogs over the years, the current one being a cutie pie named Babka. I have a lot of experience working with dogs and would love to meet yours! I work at Starbucks and have a schedule that can be a little erratic at times, so some advance notice would be great for anything more than a day. While I have to work on location, I can usually work around this by having shorter hours or, if your house is close to my job, doing a check in while on break. I care for pets by providing basics like food, water and walks, but also by providing enrichment. A lot of the time when their owners are away pets can get depressed or anxious so it's important to provide them with a fun time!
“Valeria was amazing with my dogs. She was able to gain Lola's trust (my pit rescue) , many sitters have not been able to get her to warm up to them. But, Lola gets super excited when she sees her. And she was extremly patient with my 14 year old shih tzu as well. Look forward to work with Val for future sitting.”
