About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and have cared for pets of all ages and needs — from playful puppies to seniors who need a little extra attention. When my dog was diagnosed with cancer, I learned how to handle daily medical care, including cleaning and changing bandages, giving medications, and keeping him comfortable. That experience taught me patience, gentleness, and how important it is to make pets feel safe and loved. I’ve also cared for my sister’s dog and cats while she’s away, making sure they get plenty of playtime, walks, attention, and snuggles. I also help care for my parents’ two bunnies. And now I have my own puppy, Max, who keeps me on my toes! 🐶 Whether your pet needs an energetic walking buddy, a calm and caring sitter, or someone comfortable with special needs, I’ll treat them like they’re part of my own family. Oh, and I even have a few wild squirrels that visit me for peanuts… so you could say I make friends with all kinds of animals! 🐿️❤️ I work Monday to Friday from till 4pm, so I’m available to stop by anytime after 4pm. If you need more availability just ask! I might be able to work something out. My weekends are very flexible, making it easy to fit your pet’s needs into my schedule. I’ll follow your pet’s routine and instructions to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’ll treat your home with respect, keep doors and gates secure, and send updates and pictures so you know they’re doing well. 🐾🤍

About: After 30 rewarding years of working with children and adults with special needs, I have recently retired and am bringing my lifetime of patience, empathy, and intuitive care to your beloved pets. I understand that every animal is a unique individual. My career taught me how to read subtle body language and provide a calm, reassuring presence. Whether your dog wants to curl up on the couch for endless cuddles or a shy, anxious friend needs gentle space and time to warm up, I naturally adapt to their emotional needs. As a proud owner of a sweet senior dog myself, I am well-versed in the slower paces, gentle handling, and extra TLC that older pets require. I can be available during the week or on weekends in the mornings afternoons or evenings for drop ins, belly scratches, walks, meals, and whatever else your pet needs. I cannot bring pets to my home at this time. Though I have a large fenced in yard, my senior girl might have trouble with company if she’s having a tough day with her arthritis.

About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was 16 years old. I am a pup and cat dad myself. I know the importance of finding, trusting, and reliable companion for your loved one. I work in the Hamilton school district and am available weeknights and overnights. I am a pup and cat dad myself. I like to feed my pets at the same time each day to regulate their digestion. I like to keep my pup moving on a daily such as walks and playtime. Ending with affection and positive reinforcement. I provide daily diet and hydration, lots of exercise and play, lots of affection, attention and positive reinforcement. I am open to one time or frequently as needed.

About: I have owned, rescued and fostered many dogs over the last 25 years. My experience lies in many sizes and breeds. I am also trained in CPR and first aid just in case an emergency arises. I have a special place in my heart for seniors and I have provided a loving home to several of them in their golden years. Dogs, like us, have personalities, quirks and mood swings. They can and will test us. My many years of experience and love for dogs gives me the patience and understanding to deal with difficult situations. I am available full time and on weekends to provide the time and attention your dogs and cats need. That would include drop ins, feeding, walking, poop cleanup and YES even baths. I can also administer medications. Dogs require a structured routine with both feeding and exercise. Your dog is your family and I will treat them like a member of my own pack.

About: As a lifelong animal lover, dog mom to my energetic 2-year-old Golden Retriever, Boomer, and mom of three active kids, caring for others comes naturally to me. Our home and lifestyle are very active, so I’m comfortable handling dogs with lots of energy, big personalities, and different needs. I have experience with pets both big and small and understand how important it is to keep them safe, exercised, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Whether your pet needs long walks, playtime, cuddles, check-ins, or dependable in-home care, I treat every animal like part of the family and care for them with patience, attention, and genuine love. My schedule is very flexible thanks to my career in real estate, which allows me to adjust my day around client and pet care needs. I’m available for morning, midday, evening, and weekend walks or drop-ins, and I can often accommodate last-minute requests. Because I create my own schedule, I’m able to provide reliable, attentive care and plenty of time and attention for your pets. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. As both a dog owner and mom, I understand how important trust and communication are when someone is caring for a member of your family. I’m attentive, dependable, and respectful of both your home and your pet’s individual needs. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and energy levels and always focus on creating a calm, positive environment where pets feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I’m happy to follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, walking routines, crate training preferences, and any special care requests to help keep your pet comfortable and stress-free.

About: I have 11 years of animal experience. I use to be a manager at a dog boarding facility before I got into vet med. I have no been in veterinary medicine for 10 years. I am currently a veterinary technician at an emergency animal hospital. I do cats and dogs with the occasional pocket pet. CPR and first aid trained. Trained in oral, subcutaneous, and intravenous medications. Great with serious pets and experienced with special needs animals. Can also provide nail trims, anal glands, ear cleanings, and fluid therapy (that’s rx’d by your vet). I have plenty of skills and experience, don’t be afraid to ask if your pet needs something special!

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was a kid. My house has always been a 2+ doggy house, and always rescues. That being said, I am no stranger to high energy mix breeds. I've experienced everything from resource guarding to pulling on a leash. I've cared for younger, jumpier friends to our senior friends. I am well versed working with dogs with special diets. One of my babies has severe allergies and has to stick to specific foods. I'm currently working part-time, so I have a good amount of time during the day to help out. I play in a band on the weekends, but the dates vary. I like to ensure that dogs get optimal outside/play time. If they need to be walked, I like to take them on long walks so they get good exercise and enrichment.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life! I have watched my neighbors dog. I am always dog sitting my boyfriend’s Golden Retriever! I love teaching dogs new tricks and getting them as much activity and attention as needed! I’m currently only working weekends. Days vary as there other employees. I can make my own schedule for work most of the time if I were to have a schedule stay with your pup. I unfortunately had to put my dog to rest recently but he was so very loved for 12 years. Constantly getting walks and running around in the backyard, and MANY tummy rubs and kisses. As this time, I would not provide dog sitting in my own home, as for my parents are re doing the hardwood flooring due to the claw scratches. I treat all other dogs as if they were my own and would be more then happy to come to your house and give your dog love and attention!
