About: I’ve cared for animals since I was a child. I currently have 2 dogs and a cat. I’ll go above and beyond for animals. I’m patient, strong, caring, and I understand the attention that each animal needs. I’ll treat your pets like my own and my fur babies are family. I understand the stress of leaving your animals so I hope to gain the trust of you and your animals! I work from home so I have the flexibility of being with your pets for most of the day. I currently work from home and have the flexibility of caring for animals whether it’s a drop in visit, multiple walks, or day care. I’ll be there. I have two friendly dogs of my own and my cat is as sassy as a dog. I have a condo with a large grassy area for walks and I take my own dogs on a 2.5 miles around the house.

Autumn is the first person I would recommend to care for any member of your family, but especially your pets! I have trusted her with both of my dogs from the time they were 12 weeks to now, 4 and 7. She is responsible, communicative, kind, and above all a lover of all living things.

Sarah is an incredible Caregiver! She is always attentive to my girls needs and gives them plenty of kisses and cuddles. I've trusted her with my girls for the past 5 years when I go out of town. They always get excited when she comes through that front door. Cannot recommend her enough!

Shelby was so sweet and patient with our shy dog! Our dog is wary of strangers and does not want to go for a walk with just anyone but she loved Shelby right away. Shelby put in so much effort to make our dog feel comfortable walking with her. You can tell she loves and respects animals and that made us feel comfortable leaving our dog in her care.

About: Throughout my life, animals have always been a central part of my routine. Growing up, I was responsible for taking our dogs out for walks, which not only gave me a solid understanding of their daily exercise needs but also helped build my sense of responsibility and connection with pets. My first job was as a dog bather, where I learned essential grooming skills such as washing, drying, and brushing dogs to keep them comfortable and healthy. This role gave me hands-on experience with a variety of dog breeds and taught me how to handle them gently and effectively during grooming sessions. In addition to my work with dogs, I have experience caring for other pets, including hamsters, fish, and cats. This diverse exposure has made me proficient in creating proper environments for small animals and managing aquariums, as well as providing the right nutrition and enrichment for cats. Currently, I take care of an elderly dog every day, which has deepened my understanding of senior pet care. I make sure my dog receives the attention, medication, and comfort they need to maintain their quality of life. With years of hands-on experience, I’ve learned the importance of patience, consistency, and attentive care in ensuring animals are healthy, happy, and well-loved. I have a lot of free time I can work to 9:00am to 5:30 if I need to go early I can but I need to know before hand I live in a dog save apartment I have a small dog Area for my dogs and they are very friendly and I have a crate For your dog if needed

About: I love dogs and have had at least one in my life since the age of 9. I have my own pup that I love to play with and we would love for your pho to join in on the fun. I currently work from home and it makes it easier for me to give any pup the attention or supervision they may need and require. I am free weekends to board. Though my current home does not have a fenced off yard, I would make sure to always be supervising your fur baby. I am near several dog friendly areas so physical enrichment would never be an issue. If I am in your home, I would abide by any boundaries put in place.

Terrick is the guy for the job, he’s so awesome! Always available and super caring when it comes to watching my dog. He plays with her , takes her on walks and even washed her a few times. He treats my dog the same way he does my actual children. He just has a way with kids and animals I can’t understand but it’s really appreciated and he always cares with the biggest heart . He’s the first person I think of when I need a caregiver for my fur ball of energy. Trust him, you won’t regret it!

Holly is phenomenal and very trustworthy. She used to watch my cat every time I needed her to and he loved her to death. I realize he was not a dog but he sure acted like one haha. You can always count on Holly to get the job done and animals love her. I know if I had a dog, she would be the one I would want walking and caring for them when I was gone!
