“Linsie was AMAZING with our dog, Ellie. Our dog is a rescue and can be nervous at times meeting new people, but Linsie was so calm and kind with her! We even asked short notice and she was able to come through and help us! Thanks again, Linsie!”
About: I have always lived with pets even as a kid. I have worked with humane societies by fostering. Your pet will get so much love in our home! My wife and I work at the school here in town and we start back up August 20th. So we are gone 730 to 330 Monday through Friday. I have a 6 foot privacy fence, I would say large back yard for in town, and a kiddy pool that my fur babies use to cool down on hot days. I have a yorkie and a corgi mix, I allow them anywhere in the house.
About: I've been around animals my whole life, from dogs and cats, to rabbits and birds, even goats and turkeys. I'm always happy to be around them, and am more than willing to make sure they're happy as well. My family always knows who to call when they need the critters taken care of, no matter what. I currently have open availability, from morning to evening, and weekends are open to all. Nothing better to start the day than a walk with man's best friend. I can't board pets in my apartment, and depending on the dog/client wishes in question I tend to let them follow their normal routine. I always make sure that they get plenty of exercise and fresh air.
About: I've taken care of my own and other pets for 10-15 years. I am able to deliver medication and I've taken care of senior dogs many times as well. I'm working part time and have a flexible schedule that allows me to make almost any routine fit! I also stay very active so any animals that are active and need walking is fun for me! I can easily crate animals if needed. In a client's home, I can walk or drive animals to nearby places to allow them to exercise if preferred!
“Heather is a true cat-sitting superstar! She did an amazing job taking care of my furry friends, and I couldn't be happier with her services. Not only was Heather prompt and reliable, but she also made sure my cats were entertained and content during my absence. When I returned home, my kitties were purring with joy, clearly showing they had a blast with Heather. If you're in need of a top-notch cat-sitter, look no further. Heather is the real deal! five stars all the way!”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 12. I’ve watched for family, family friends, and neighbours. I’ve always loved animals, and getting to work with them is like a dream! I’ve taken care of dogs of all ages, from puppies to seniors. I’m also more than willing to get my hands dirty! Puppies can I have accidents, but it’s not a problem! They like to play in the mud, guess that means bath time! I also have experience giving dogs medication. My own dogs take medication daily and I’ve done it while sitting before! I’m currently working part time but I am in the market for a new job so any days and times work. My personal schedule is very flexible! If you have a fenced in yard your fur babies will be let out every two hours (supervised of course:) )No fenced in yard? No problem. They will still be taken out every two hours on a leash. I am also more than happy to bring your fur babies on walks throughout the day, just as long as the weather is suitable for them! Between playtime and snuggle time your babies will be in great hands!
About: I have had multiple pets throughout my life! I currently have a crazy staffy myself right now!! I have worked at a doggie daycare as well for about 3 years! I currently am working at Mayo Clinic! I always feed and let my pup out in the AM and sometimes on break if I have time I will visit him! After work we go for a walk if the weather is nice! I always let my pup out in the AM and a couples times in the afternoon so your pup would receive the same!! Walks are a must as well!
About: Hi, I’m Chris! I’ve always loved being around dogs and have spent years caring for pups of all kinds — from high-energy adventurers to laid-back couch companions. I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your dog, and I’m here to give them the attention, care, and exercise they need while you’re away. Whether your dog loves a long, brisk walk or prefers a slower, sniff-filled stroll, I’ll adjust to whatever makes them happiest. Their safety, comfort, and happiness always come first with me, and I’ll treat them like they’re my own. Regular walks do more than just burn energy — they help dogs stay healthy, ease anxiety, and keep them mentally sharp. Plus, it gives them a chance to explore, smell new things, and just enjoy being a dog. I’d love to meet you and your pup and be a part of their daily routine! I do a lot of running and trail running so if you have an active dog, we could have a lot of fun. But I also enjoy slow paced walks and just enjoying the environment. As I have had inside/outside dogs most of my life, I will always contain pets into the areas that are available for them but not a caged containment unless needed.
