Dog Sitting in Lake Lotawana

About: I've been pet sitting for about three years now, petsitting many different breeds such as Danes, Australian Shepards, Labs, Golden Retrievers, Huskies, and German Shepards. I love big dogs and grew up constantly around Great Danes and Mastiffs. I've also raised three puppies over the years and been involved in basic care, walking, playing, and potty training. Animals are my whole life and I'm getting certified in dog grooming starting in August, so I'm available for a large amount of time over the summer! Currently, I'm looking to pet sit full time! I am available on almost any day of the week (and weekend!) and can come at any time needed during this summer. I will always make sure your fur babies are fed, have water at all times, get any specific meds (if needed), are played with as much as possible, and are plenty loved! I will treat your animals as if they were my own, making sure they are consistently happy and healthy. I also strive to make your return back home as stress-free as possible and often vacuum, wipe down surfaces, and tidy up before leaving!

About: Hi! Growing up I have had all the animals I could. Hamsters, fish, bunnies, rats, birds, horses, dogs, and cats. My family has 8 dogs now. The past year I adopted a lab puppy, as a full time college student. This has been the greatest gift, but has shown me first handedly the hardships of having a dog. I want nothing more than to help ease the hardships of having a furry friend for you and your family. As a college student, I have classes everyday, about one or two classes. My days have many gaps and free time allowing for many potty breaks, walks, and play! My schedule is very flexible overall. Pets are my #1 priority when I am home, coming from a family with many dogs. Taking care of my dogs means walking, feeding, playing, and small training on a daily basis. Love and affection is another part of caring for pets in my opinion.

“Peyton did a great job taking care of my cats! She was able to play with them and made sure they weren’t bored while I was gone!”

About: I have had dogs throughout my life. I love dogs, and they are truly humans’ best friends! My husband and I have a cairn terrier named Hachi and a cavapoo named Matcha, and we would love to meet some furry friends! I love to take a walk after work and I would take your pup with! Our house also has a fenced in yard so your pup can run and burn some energy that way as well. I always keep my door locked and when I’m out with your pup I’ll make sure they are leashed at all time and make sure other dogs are friendly before letting them interact with your pup.

About: I currently work at a boarding facility and get to work with dogs of all sizes and temperaments! I especially do well with the pups that are a little more nervous or fearful as I’ve been working with dogs and have learned how to read them well! I love to see nervous pups flourish into who they truly are once they get warmed up! I am a lead at PetSuites so I do administer medication daily to pups aswell so don’t be shy about boarding your dog who needs medication! My work schedule: sun. 8-8 Mon, OFF tues 8-5:30 wed 8-5:30 thurs 8-8 fri 8-5:30 sat 8-5:30 IF YOU ARE UNCOMFORTABLE WITH YOUR DOG BEING LEFT ALONE FOR 10+ HOURS I CAN CHANGE MY 12 HOUR DAYS TO 9. You just have to book a few weeks in advance I currently work full time and depending on how close the dogs are to my work could swing by before and after work as well as on my break for potties and meals! On my days off I can spend much more time if not the whole day those days! My dogs at home are friendly but one is getting old and a little cranky so in home boarding/visits wouldn’t work best for me as it would likely make your dog more comfortable to be at their own home!

“Jadyn does such a fantastic job caring for my pups! I can always count on multiple photos and descriptions of how she’s spent her time. I would highly recommend her if you want peace of mind that your babies are in good hands 🐶”

About: I've had dogs for over 10 years, two who are seniors with one of those being a tripawd. All of my pups have special needs of one type or another (even my 4-year-old) so I understand firsthand how to provide individualized care in whatever form you need. I am fully prepared to care for your loved ones to your exact specifications, no request is too big or too small because I understand. I've also helped several neighbors with repeat dog and cat care so my sphere of experience doesn't just include my own furry kiddos. You can trust when you hire me that I will make sure your furry family stays safe and healthy while you're away. I currently work full-time Monday through Friday 8am to 4:30pm to provide for my own doggos in the manner to which they've become accustomed. That leaves weekday evenings and all day on the weekends open to care for your furry family. I'm also open to early morning drop-ins. If you have needs outside of that window, I might be able to work something out with enough notice. I will care for your pets in your home to your exact specifications. If you want me to walk them, I will (I welcome the exercise!). Stay in the yard, I can do that too! As a pet parent myself who has relied on sitters, I know how important it is to have a sitter who listens and follows instructions so you and your furry family have the best experience possible.

“Josh did a great job and went above and beyond.”

About: With over 8 years of experience and two miniature dachshunds of my own, I offer personalized, loving care that prioritizes your pet’s happiness and well-being.

I can provide constant companionship, regular check-ins, and ensure that pets receive the attention and care they need throughout the day.

We have a fenced in back yard and go on daily walks when the weather permits.

“Morgan was great with Wilson the first night! I was able to be worry-free at work while she was there. She was very thorough and updating me and got Wilson everything he needed at drop in!”

About: Gone on a business trip? Family emergency on the other side of town? Just want a night out without thinking “did I let the dog out?” Never fear leaving your pet again! My name is Kayla, I’m 27 years old and I’ve been involved with animals all my life. Dogs, cats, hamsters, hedgehogs, goats, horses, cows, you name it! I pride myself in a crazy dog lady, and take care of every animal like they’re my own. Every animal is different and has specific quirks and needs that I’ll quickly pick up and adapt to. Your pet and I will without a doubt become best pals by the time you return, and you’ll never want another pet sitter again. Book me and find out! :) I currently work full time on the weekends, with occasional days during the week, but am able to be flexible with scheduling with advanced notice. Care would be best in your home, but we could possibly arrange care in my home with proper introduction to my animals and children first.

“Jazz was awesome! She was accommodating for a last-minute trip and went above and beyond taking care of my animals. Very happy with my experience!”

“Kendall was great with our dogs! We were able to book with her last minute on the same day, which was super helpful as our trip was last minute. She took great care of our dogs and sent pics for each visit. She even bought our puppy a toy which was super sweet of her to do. I would definitely book with her again!”

About: I have a genuine love for animals and take great pride in providing reliable, caring pet-sitting services. Having grown up on a farm, I gained hands-on experience with a wide range of animals, from household pets to livestock. This background has taught me responsibility, patience, and how to care for animals of all kinds. I treat every pet as if it were my own, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I attend school online, which gives me a very flexible schedule. This allows me to travel for pet-sitting jobs and even stay overnight when needed, as long as there’s Wi-Fi so I can keep up with my classes. Since I’m currently applying for more jobs, my availability is open and adaptable, making it easy for me to provide consistent, reliable care for pets whenever I’m needed. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I make sure to follow their usual routines as closely as possible so the pets feel comfortable and secure. I provide regular feeding, fresh water, playtime, and plenty of affection. I also take time to clean up after them, whether that’s refreshing litter boxes, wiping paws, or tidying up their spaces. If I’m staying overnight, I make sure the home stays neat and the pets get extra attention and companionship. My goal is always to create a safe, calm, and loving environment while keeping the owner’s home just as they left it.

“This was my first time using Rover and Mya made the experience amazing! I will definitely be using her again. My dog is very shy and not good with strangers but Mya took her time to be patient and calming. My dog started warming up to her very fast and I belive dogs have a good judge of character ;)”

About: I have had a dog in my life since I can ever remember. I’ve been through the good, the bad, and the ugly. My happiness comes from coming home, and getting to be with my furry friend. There is no doubt your furry friend will lack love, kisses, or cuddles with me! 1.5 years ago I got My first ever dog of my own since moving out of my parents and it has been the best experience I could ask for. Truly my best friend, and I cant wait to make many more little best friends!! I am a teacher, so I am currently on summer break. I am typically home all hours of the day, unless I have a few errands to run or go spend time with friends. I am caring for and playing with my dog at all times, and hope to care for and play with yours too! My house has a fenced in backyard- but I make sure to always keep an eye on him when he is outback. My dog has been trained to not run away when we are out front of our house. He will chase after other people out of excitement, so if people are seen in the distance walking towards we will put him inside so he can enjoy from the window:) I feed him twice a day and give him plenty exercise! We go on walks and run around out back. His favorite toy is his frisbee!

About: From my earliest days to now as an adult, my love for animals has remained unwavering. Growing up, I not only took care of our family pets but also extended my affection to the pets of neighbors and friends. I've always felt a deep connection with nature's creatures, and I make sure to extend my care to them as well. While my genuine affection for animals is evident, I must admit that my biggest weakness is perhaps being overly indulgent with them. This has led to Kona developing a love for "nilla wafers." Nonetheless, I do maintain a balanced approach when it comes to training, as I gently enforce basic commands like "sit" and others. Recognizing the importance of regular exercise and bathroom breaks, I religiously take my dogs out for walks twice a day. However, I also understand that not all dogs prefer walks and some might enjoy playtime more. So, I happily adapt to their preferences, engaging in activities like tug of war to keep them happy and active. In essence, my tender heart and laid-back nature make me an ideal companion for animals, and I find joy in providing them with the care, attention, and love they deserve. I have the flexibility of working from home and remotely, making pet sitting at either my place or yours incredibly convenient. Drop-ins are always welcome and never a problem. Taking breaks from the computer is essential, and what better way to do so than by visiting and caring for your beloved pet? When outside I utilize multiple tie-outs since we lack a fenced yard. I make sure to stay with them whenever they're on the tie-out. During walks, leashes are always used and harness if preffered. Indoors, I employ baby gates to restrict access to certain rooms, while allowing the majority of the home to be open for my pet to roam freely.

“Absolutely wonderful!! We were very nervous about leaving our 11yo golden at home while we vacationed because his health is declining. She listened to all my instructions, texted me every day along with pictures, and eased my mind about leaving him. She did drop in visits and walked him around outside each day. We definitely found our sitter!”

About: My love for pets started to grow almost 15 years ago when I met my best friend! My pet had diet issues so I am very familiar with Prescriptions, and diet restrictions or prescribed diets. I love exploring the outdoors as much as your pets do! My weekly schedule is open, I am taking college courses for Veterinary Medicine! I am doing pet care as a job while I am in school, I base my schedule around what You and Your Pet need! I love to visit my clients, they make everyday so much better! I talk with the pet as I would anyone while we do whatever task we have scheduled! (playing, walking, running, sitting)

About: This is my first official venture in pet care. I have helped watch pets for friends and family. I grew up in the country and have always had dogs, cats, horses, cows, and burrows. Now I am a mom with two wild children. I have nannied for a family in the past and also cared for their pets. My background is in social work and am accustomed to making home visits. I have worked with all kinds of families and have seen how different families function. I want to care for your pet, how you would care for your pet. I have a part-time work from home job. I get my children on and off the bus. I have flexibility during the normal work week to help step in where needed. I have a fenced in large yard and a dog door. This allows the dogs to go in and out at will. We have one little dog currently. He does well with other dogs. We do have a crate if we need to put him in it.
