About: I have taken care of dogs and other pets for many years and also worked at the zoo! I love animals and have passion to care for what you love. I will treat each animal like my own, and ensure your love is felt from wherever you are!

I will do my best to be the best sitter and always go above and beyond.
“Another great experience with Samantha! She was very attentive to both kitties, noticed right away that Griffy was feeling a bit off, and even cleaned up his puke-mess on the carpet! Highly recommend her!”

About: I’ve spent my whole life surrounded by pets and have over 5 years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all breeds and personalities. I’m responsible, attentive, and treat every pet like part of the family. Friends and family have always trusted me to walk, feed, and care for their pets with love. I also have experience with senior animals and I’m comfortable giving medications when needed. I’m currently able to adjust my schedule to pet care, as it’s easy for me to organize my week with flexibility. I always plan ahead so I can also focus on my other jobs and meet all my responsibilities. I live in a quiet, safe, and clean space. I don’t have pets of my own, so I can fully focus on yours. I always keep the area clean and organized, and I make sure your pet is calm and under constant supervision. If needed, I can also keep them in a separate area. In addition, just five minutes walking from my home is a large park called Mount Airy Forest Playground, where I can walk and do many fun activities with your pet.

About: I've owned animals all my life. I currently own one outdoor cat and 4 horses. I recently lost my dog of 13 years to cushings disease. I currently work part time at a horse boarding facility and previously worked for several years as a kennel techician. Traveling for a week every year with my family, I know it's hard to find good quality care for my pets. I'd love to be able to provide that care to the pets of other families. I work part time at a horse boarding facility 4 days a week (Thursday - Sunday). I work 2 shifts each day for 3- 4 hours each and have a 2-3 hour break between my shifts. So, I'm basically home every day. We live in a ranch home with a fenced backyard. I live with my Mom who is a big dog lover and would welcome your dog with open arms.
About: I have had pets my whole life. I currently have a dog and a pet tortoise. I have also pet sat for friends dogs and mini pigs. I'm ready to treat your family like my family I work full time second shift at the local sheriff department as a dispatcher. My dog is not crated during this time. I do come home on my hour lunch break and let her out and play with her. I have a tie out for potty breaks and a large house to run around. Also visits to the dog park or tractor supply for a bath and some treats.
About: You know when you walk by a dog, he starts walking towards you, trying to drag their owner towards you, and you know he just wants to say hello and be pet? My thought process is the same as the dogs every time I pass one. Nine times out of ten I will stop, ask the owner if it's alright to pet their dog, then sit and chat with them and love on the dog for a while. (And I only chat to pet the dog longer). All my life I have heard many cases of, "Don't touch my cat or he'll scratch you" or "Watch out for the dog, he growls at everyone" and before my visit is over I have the cat in my lap and the dog following me where ever I go. My fiancée calls me Dr. Doolittle.
About: I grew up with 3 large breed dogs and have done 2 years of dog walking / pet sitting! During my 2 years of pet sitting, I took care of puppies from 6 weeks old to senior dogs. Things that fell under the description of ‘took care of’ are; picking up poop, feeding / following dietary schedules, administering medications, walks, play time, bathroom breaks, training work, mental stimulation (snuffle mats, kongs, etc.) I do daily dog walks, and am helping my parents raise and train a German shepherd! I also have 2 cats of my own at home. I will travel to your home by car! I do not offer care for your pets in my home due to my cats not being very sociable haha!!
About: I have lived on a farm my whole life and I have been surrounded by animals since I was little. I have taken care of dogs from newborn to senior and everything in between. I have lots of experience with puppies and older dogs. I grew up around labs, German shepherds, Australian shepherds, and many mix breeds. I have had lots of cats and I know to how care for and love them as well! I currently set my own hours, so I have plenty of time to care for your wonderful pet or pets! If you have a time or set of times in mind, I am happy to work with you. I am happy to help in any manner you wish for your pet or pets! I love getting a set of "basic" rules as well a set of rules and other information specific to your pet.
About: I have had dogs my whole life, I strive to make all animals’ lives better. I believe mental stimulation is just as important as physical activity. I am currently preparing to start grooming school this year! (I also have quite a bit of experience with houseplants!) I work night shift (6pm - 4:30am) so it can be difficult but I make pet care a priority. I make sure to spend as much time outside as possible doing a mix of basic training and puzzles. I live on a farm with an open field and one semi-reactive dog (Which would be put in the house to prevent accidents). While outside I take my dog for walks around the field so she can sniff and dig as much as she would like. I also do snuffle mats/dog puzzles

Ron H.
“Ron and I were roommates for several years. Ron had a pittie and I owned a French Mastiff. Through the years of living under the same roof and both of us owning dogs, I have true first hand, day to day knowledge of just how amazing Ron is with dogs. Ron's dog Loki had possibly an allergy of some kind and I would see Ron giving Loki his meds like clock work. Ron always fed Loki quality dog food. Loki never lacked for love, attention, and was well behaved due to Ron being so diligent with him. Kind and caring. Ron earned my trust immediately and I would leave my Mastiff, Aubrey in his care. I NEVER left my Aubrey with anyone, ever. Aubrey adored him. Loki adored him. Ron was attentive to every tiny thing about Loki (and Aubrey) and so when he spotted a tiny lump on Loki, to the vets they went. Loki had cancer and he didn't waste one minute to have it removed. Ron was extremely vigilant watching over Loki (although, he obviously always did) and if there were any question or doubt, off to the vets he would go. I could not name one single person who I would trust more with my dog than Ron. Ron loves dogs with a passion that you only see in a handful of people.”
Ali V.
“Ali is excellent with our beagle puppy. I highly recommend her”
Abby H.
“We have used Abby several times over the last two years to help care for our puppies. We have two boxers who now love Abby and when she comes to visit them. She ensures she is on time, and spends quality time with our dogs. They love to see her coming because they know she loves to play with them and take them for walks. Abby does a great job communicating and letting me know if there are any concerns and how the dogs are doing. It is a great peace of mind to have her when we are out of town.”

I really appreciate that she contacts me when something other than the normal happens.”
