About: Hi! I’m Casey and I have three dogs and three cats. I would love to help you care for your animals! I’ve gone through obedience training with each of my own dogs and love incorporating it into walks. I’m a substitute teacher and love spending my time walking dogs. I usually choose to sub a couple days a week and walk or do drop ins the other days! When walking dogs I make sure to check the weather and watch the pups body language. I also know walking on a leash can be difficult for some dogs and I have worked with my own dogs on pulling and reactivity.

“Dennis made fast friends with our boy Finn. We so appreciate the care he provided along with the walk. I look forward to working with Dennis again soon!”

About: I have always had a love for all kinds of animals. Ive enjoyed watching family and friends pets as well as caring for my own pets in my apartment. I'd love to get to know you and your unique pet and make them feel even more loved and appreciated. I have past background knowledge on pet nutrition,hygiene and behavior traits. I am currently starting school in March to gain my pharmacy technician certification, I would have open availability to provide assistance for you and your pets. I do have a dog with me, her name is Maze. Maze is a rescue, she stays in my room and going on walks multiple times a day as well as dog parks, she would love to have a friend. Maze eats 2 times a day once in the morning and once in the evening with a snack (can of tuna/shredded chicken) in the afternoon. Maze talks walks in a harness to provide safely,we do have an extra! I have cats as well, the are allowed to freely roam around with little latches that keep bedroom doors open just enough for them to go in and out, they are also fed twice a day with wet food and have dry kibble out for free feeding through the day, since they have smaller stomachs they eat more frequently, howver the dry food is only filled once it runs out completely, the cats also have a running water fountain as well as other water bowls on elevated surfaces. Their are plenty of pet beds,toys and treats, if their are any allergies please let me know!

“Natalie responded the same day and provided clear and quick communication. Nova had a blast with her at the park and I look forward to booking with her again!”

“Kate was awesome and kept me up to date on everything as she took my Siberian Husky for a walk. He tends to pull on a leash and even saw some deer while Kate was walking him and she kept control and had a nice walk with him. I will be using Kate plenty of times for walks in the future. You should to!”

About: I've taken care of cats and dogs since I was young. In middle school my mom started my cat obsession (bathe, feed, cuddles of course, changing litter box, administer medicine) and although I still love them, dogs definitely tend to be more theatrical. : ) I have lots of patience for pups and stubborn older dogs (let's be honest, we can all be a little stubborn) (feeding, walks, baths, administering medicine, belly rubs) I have a theatrical dog named Owen (sometimes I think he was an actor in his past life) to keep your pups company throughout the day. I currently work from home full-time and have a flexible schedule. I'm able to take dog park/walking breaks, or check-in on your pets when needed. My apartment has a long walking trail (we walk in the morning and evening) and a dog park that we go to twice a day as well. *My apartment does not have any breed restrictions, I understand that some breeds get bad reps, but I was raised with a pitbull that is truly a teddy bear.* When dropping in on pets I like to ask lots of questions at first, because I want to make sure the care is consistent to their daily routine.

About: I’ve take care of cats and dogs for 20 years. While I grew up with both, I have a huge passion for cats! Whether it’s playing with wand toys or hiding treats, my family and friends know I’ll take excellent care of their cats while they’re away. As for dogs, I grew up with a Golden Retriever and Maltese, so I’m well-versed in taking dogs on walks, feeding them, and even giving them a bath! My schedule is flexible right now so I am always able to take care of my pets when needed. I take care of my cat daily and also help with my relatives pets. I have one cat and make sure she’s fed twice a day, using the litter box, and getting exercise. When I’m at your home, I’ll be sure to interact with your animal and make sure they’re not missing you too much!

“I am so grateful for Carolyn! She answered me so fast with a last minute booking and was here in less than 20 minutes! She was so accommodating and sweet! I would highly recommend!”

About: Have been a Pet Parent for 40+ years. I just retired fulltime and have been without a pet for two years. Decided that instead of getting another pet, that I would do pet sitting. I love animals and what is a better way to experience new type of breeds. Will LOVE your pet as if they were my own. THANKS FOR READING MY PROFILE AND ANXIOUS TO MEET YOU AND YOUR PET!!!!! RETIRED AND OPEN FOR SITTING, ALMOST ANYTIME. WOULD PREFER TO NOT SIT LATE AT NIGHT BUT HAPPY TO DO OVER NIGHT. HOLIDAYS ARE ALSO OPEN. I LIVE IN AN APARTMENT COMPLEX AND PLENTY ROOM TO WALK. IF YOUR DOG LIKES DOG PARKS, WILLING TO TAKE THEM THERE ALSO. I PREFER NOT TO CRATE UNLESS NEEDED WHEN ALONE.

“Great walker.”

About: I have taken care of all sorts of dogs through the years and find joy in going for walks around the neighborhood and playing and meeting every single dog I see. I work full time, 3 12 hour shifts a week and my other 4 days I love having something to do whether that is going on walks, popping in to make sure dogs have everything they need and having potty breaks. During drop ins or walks I like to follow the owners instructions carefully so that each pet can maintain their normal routines and reduce stress. I make sure each pet has water, any food they need, toys if able, exercise, and attention. With walks I stay very mindful of potential dangers or triggers to avoid any unwanted situations and pay attention to any sins of overheating, exhaustion or discomfort. During drop ins if a pet uses a crate I always make sure it’s locked and checked before leaving as well as leaving the surrounding how I arrived and with locked doors. It’s always fun to send the owner updates and pictures of their pet while away to ensure they are safe and getting the care they need.

“This was my first time using Rover so I was a little nervous, but Rio was wonderful. Great communication and cute photos of my 13 year old Shih Tzu. No complaints. Will definitely request Rio in the future!”

About: Dogs have been a part of my life since I was a child. Ive seen it all. And many times I’ve taken care of friends and family’s pets and cared for them just like my own. I’m currently working from home so I have plenty of time through the week to care for your pet. My weekends can also be flexible! We have a spacious 2 bedroom apartment with plenty of room to roam. It also includes a dog park so they can roam freely. There’s also plenty of neighborhoods surrounding us to offer long dog walks. We also have a little dog of our own, so you’re dog will have a companion

“Izaya was great! So sweet with our dog and very responsive”

About: In a room full of people, I would be the person who goes straight to the dog! I have always been a big dog lover and become easily attached to furry friends. I truly believe animals can sense my affectionate personality. I have grown up with 2 rescues: a spunky toy Yorkie named Chico and a loving Maltipoo named Shaggy who has passed now. I missed that constant joy so much that I got a puppy in August 2020! I still have so much love to give that I will love on your dogs as if they were my own ❤️ I am a substitute teacher during the regular school year, so I am flexible even up to the morning of at times. If your baby needs more 1:1 attention let me know so I can free up my schedule. Any bookings would be greatly appreciated! As for our home, we live in a 3 tier home with plenty of stairs & 3 beds to choose from. Our yard is unfenced but we have leashes in the ground & often get our little chihuahua neighbor who waits at the door to play. Plus we have a neighborhood fenced dog park right behind us where they run free! Carmelo is a loving & calm mannered 5yr old Mini Goldendoodle. After getting his initial human excitement wiggles out the way, he truly is a calm dog & the biggest baby. He’s gentle with the smallest of dogs, but kind of a whimp when it comes to bigger ones. Auggie is the energetic 3 yr old and can run circles around your dog to keep them tired lol He loves to play tug and race around the house.
