About: Hi! My name is Ali H. I have a 13 year old poodle that my family and I raised and trained. I have watched dogs since I was 10 (I will be 21 in November) and it is one of my favorite things to do! I have watched puppy from the age of 10 weeks all the way up to senior dogs. I have taken care of dog with many health problems. Since I live more in the country my dog and I normally go for walks about twice a week and we play in my yard everyday! Dogs in my house are treated like family. We make sure they are loved and cuddled everyday. And of course they sleep with us at night! We also love taking my dog for cars rides and spending time with other dogs to make sure she is socializing!
About: 🐾Please note that meet and greets are required for all my services! Me and my boyfriend both work full time jobs so your pets will be alone for a few hours depending on your services you schedule with me. Also note if you book for a boarding stay you will have to provide a crate if your dog stays in a crate while your gone durning the day or overnight!🐾 I have taken care of all breed and sizes of dogs for a few years now. All my family and family friends have trusted me with their fur babies. I go to their homes or I take their dogs home with me depending on how they get along with my dogs. I have fed, played, and bathed dogs. I also love of them as if they are my own dogs. Not only do I care for dogs but I can care for all other four legged animals as well! Depending on the day if I work your pet will get 1 walk and plenty of outside time! If I am not working your dog will get 2 walks, hours of outside time and get as much enrichment to help their mental stemalation and energy! Starting in May on Saturdays I typically work at a race track until late, but I will go to your home prior to me going to the track. I have a fenced in yard and live in a nice Kearney neighborhood! We have several nature trails to walk on and a dog park in town! I do have two dogs but both are very friendly with other dogs and up to date on all vaccinations! There is also a vet office 5 minutes down the road that I take my animals to so if there ever is an emergency I will go straight there!
About: Great with all types of dogs and have a fun, intuitive understanding of their care needs. Flexible and attentive, I’m happy to adapt to what your dog enjoys-whether it’s relaxing, going for a walk, or playing fetch. I am currently working part time and look to fill my daytime (10a-3:30p) with some pups. I enjoy an active lifestyle so I am open to whatever adventures your pup enjoys. I strive to provide loving care for your pet in the comfort of their home. Following their routines and ensuring they are fed, exercised, and happy, while keeping a clean and safe environment.
About: I have tons of pet care experience. I used to work in a daycare/ boarding facility. I have also cared for dogs in my home before. I am available every day of the week with flexible hours. I am also a certified pet trainer and your dog may come home with new skills or improved manners just for fun. I will make sure your pet gets plenty of exercise and socializing. I will love your dog as much as you do and will treat them like my own. I am respectful and responsible with any of your personal needs or wants when it comes you and your four legged friends. Please let me care for your pet while you are gone and trust that I will take good care of them. I am home full time with the exception of personal outings and running errands. I will be able to let your pups out for potty breaks, go for walks and have plenty of time to play. I make sure that a leash is always attached before opening a door to take your dog for a walk unless fenced in. We currently don’t have a fence, but will hopefully soon. We have two friendly dogs.
About: I'm a natural with animals and your dog/dogs are sure to love me. I'm an active person, so playing with your dogs won't be a question. I am a Husky-mom so I'm used to many personalities! I work fully remote so taking care of your fur babies will never be an issue! I have an amazing space dedicated solely to dogs. I have a 360 square foot temperature-regulated patio with couches, soft spaces, and water dishes dedicated to the dogs. This patio opens up to a huge fenced in backyard. This space is enriching and full of playtime for your dogs!! The dogs also have full reign of the house and are well-watched throughout their stay. I've had about 8 years of dog care experience and am excited to take care of more dogs. If your dog has any special interests or things they like to do, I would love to do those things with him/her. I also love just relaxing with a pup by my side, so if your dog likes that, I can dig that, too. I work remotely during the day, but have flexibility to come home/walk dogs/drop by, etc. I have fostered dogs and cats for over 2 years and would love to have a “job” working with dogs!! I love hanging out with dogs. I work fully remote so taking care of your fur babies will never be an issue! Your pets will always be in a safe, monitored space. Weekdays are available for doggy daycare, dog walking and dog drop-ins. Weekends are sporadic but sometimes have availability for walks or drop-ins! I am very considerate of each family and pets’ needs. I know routines and consistency are important so I’m very happy to accommodate those whatever they may be!
About: Howdy there & nice to meet you, I am a kindred soul who has experience working in doggy day cares/boarding camps as well as volunteering hours at various local animal shelters. I am an aspiring pet groomer and will be taking classes for that soon as well. I turned my passion to vibe with furry friends into paid play dates. I am a natural care giver and would love to meet your little (or big) one! I work a hybrid remote job so my schedule is super flexible. I have to already incorporate my schedule around my rightfully spoiled only child (Lincoln, my 8-year old Husky mix). I also combine pet care time with my self-care routine for exercise/physical activity. (Work smarter not harder). I have a fenced yard/porch, as well as a doggy door built into the door that leads to said yard/porch and security cameras that cover the yard so we can always see what's going on. As well as various toys, treats, and walking equipment always available to all our furry friends.
About: I’ve dog sat older dogs nearing the end of their life and I’ve helped raise puppies. I’m very passionate about working with animals and keeping them safe. I’ve also worked at a dog boarding place, caring for pets. I love spending time with dogs. I currently work overnight shifts, so I will get to spend my days with your dogs. I’ll be around to check on them as often as needed, let them out frequently, and give them plenty of attention and love. I always monitor play time and potty breaks, and I always make sure there’s nothing dangerous the dogs can get a hold of. Animal safety is important to me.
About: I've volunteered and worked at shelters taking care of both cats and dogs with basic training sessions as well as physical therapy recovery for dogs I am currently looking for work but I unfortunately am not having the best of luck so this would be my only responsibility at this time Well I currently am not able to board at home but I am familiar with kennel training as my own dog is trained but I'm able to adapt to the customers needs

About: I have lifelong, hands on experience caring for animals and specialize in supporting pets through every stage of life. I currently have a puppy (toy Aussiedoodle), so I’m actively experienced in potty training and reinforcing foundational commands like sit, stay, and come with consistency and patience. I also have extensive experience with senior dogs. I cared for my own from age 3 through 17, which gave me a deep understanding of advanced care needs such as medication administration, bathing, mobility support, doggy diaper care, and hand-feeding. I’m comfortable navigating the sensitivities that can come with new people and aging, including moments of discomfort or food related aggression, and always handle pets with a calm, patient approach. I currently care for two dogs and three cats, which keeps me very in tune with different temperaments, routines, and needs. What sets me apart is my ability to read animal behavior, adjust my care style accordingly, and provide steady, patient, and attentive care that helps pets feel safe and loved. My friends and family always call me for pet sitting needs due to my loving and bubbly personality and strong passion and dedication for animals. Pet care fits into my routine very naturally and I genuinely enjoy making time for it. At the moment, I have open availability 7 days a week, which allows me to be flexible and responsive for visits, walks, or other activities. I am currently in the process of interviewing for part-time positions, but I remain committed to prioritizing pet care and can easily accommodate visits before or after work shifts. I’m very flexible and happy to work around what’s best for each pet’s routine. I provide care in a calm, attentive, and safety-focused way that helps pets feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. When I’m in a client’s home, I always follow their routines closely so pets can stay in their familiar environment with minimal stress. I pay close attention to instructions for feeding, walks, medications, and any special needs, and I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are handled carefully at all times. I also take time to build trust with each pet at their own pace—whether that means a gentle introduction, giving them space if they’re shy, or engaging with play and affection once they’re comfortable. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, loved, and cared for while keeping owners fully informed and at ease throughout the visit. I also have two dogs of my own if your fur baby is ever needing a friend. 💛
About: I’ve always taken care of animals, but for the past five years I’ve been doing it on my own.I would watch friends and family’s pets whenever they needed it. Cats or dogs, it doesn’t really matter. I work Monday - Friday 8 to 5. I am able to take some breaks through out the day to help out when I need to. If there’s an emergency I’m sure I can work something out. I love taking dogs on walks and playing with them. I have dealt with small dogs to big dogs, so I’m comfortable with both. I’ve also have done basic training with them.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life. All different breeds and all different sizes. I’ve always known the importance of keeping a good eye on them and knowing their regular attitude. I know how serious something can be even when the dogs attitude just switched a little bit. I know the importance of showing your love and care for animals as it can really help comfort them or just make them happy. I currently work part time so I do have a lot of freetime to help out and look after/ care for peoples animals who need it. I’m available anyday especially weekends to watch/walk ur pets!! In my home my dog has an open field to run in a water bowl outside inside and in my room. He also gets kenneled sometimes depending on how long im leaving for and such but at night he sleeps in bed with me or on the floor if he gets too hot.
About: I have had a dog and cat all my life I love to spoil them. By playing with them having treats for them and giving them all the attention they deserve. I have a dog that is cat friendly and dog friendly but I will keep them separated if I the owner request that they be kept sperated. I live with my husband and step daughter so they would get plenty of love and attention my step daughter wanting to do this as her first job so I am helping her I work part time but soon I will be in school on April 15th so I will be home most of the time to care for the animals. O did I mention that we all love animals. This will also be a good first job for my step daughter. I work part time till April 15th then start school so I will be home most of the time,but when I am not home my husband and step daughter will be there. I don't have a yard but down the road from the dog park and there is plenty of room in my apartment and outside area to walk them around and I have one friendly dog but like I said can keep them in separate parts of the house if requested from owner.
About: I’ve had many many different types of animals all of my life such as pigs, dogs, chickens, cats, and more and I think I have a lot of experience in taking care of the animals too. I would love to watch your animals whenever you need me too! I have basketball in the morning until 9 but after that I’m free and Wednesday I have games later in the night but I can watch them any time between then! I really would love seeing your animals and giving them love ! I can deal with about any size of animals and I’m not allergic to any other animals! I hope you consider me when looking for an animal sitter and I will ask for reasonable prices!

I'm adult, responsible, love dogs and am even an Eagle Scout :) I have a life time of experience with dogs and always seem to be their favorite at friends houses and parties. I look forward to sharing my day with your dog :) Whether I'm just dropping by to let them out or exploring the neighborhood on a nice walk in good or bad weather. I look forward to making both your dogs and yours acquaintance. I have a super flexible schedule so I can make meeting and playing with your dog a priority. I work all over the city and am able to get to all parts of town. When taking care of your pet I will be fully engaged with them. I don't just let them out the door. I play, pet and make sure your dog is happy and having fun.
About: My first dog was a St. Bernard named Abner when I was two and I've loved and had dogs in my life ever since . I always end up being the one people ask to watch their fur babies or help with them ( baths, training, socializing with people). I've assisted in training and working with dogs that were considered to have behavioral issues. Utilizing guidance and the experience of military k-9 handlers in the past helped me develop a confidence in taking the lead with dogs that are considered to have behavioral issues . The love and protection I've felt for my own fur babies is something that can reassure you that no matter what you need for me to know about your pet ...I will hear you and adhere to it. I know that I've been considered particular when stressing the care expected of my own .You'll have the security of knowing that no matter how "small " , that every detail will be important. From their favorite toy to medications, to fears and dislikes. I'm very active and can give high drive pups the outlet they need . A more mellow or elderly dog will get equal attention with lots of snuggles. Reassurance will be plentiful for the pups or kitties that are nervous or struggle with separation. I'm experienced in caring for elderly pets and the gentleness and patience needed there. Personal losses and empathy developed caring for my own through senior years will allow you the trust that I genuinely know how precious they are . I've had experience with service and service dogs in training and understand how essential the consistency and handler's direction is when caring for them. NOBODY knows your pet better than you and it's upsetting when guidelines aren't followed by someone. It's not just annoying but can be nerve-wracking when a sitter doesn't seem to take things seriously. With me ,if you say your cat won't eat unless I shake the bag twice and meow .. I got you . If you say that your dog is an escape artist and securing the perimeter like I'm transferring a prisoner is needed...I got you . I have a genuine love for animals and tend to feel a connection with people who know how deep that bond is . No matter what the level of care needed , I'll work with you to create the best experience that your beloved furry family member can have in your absence. I work remotely and am able to be flexible in my availability. Odd hours , including late nights or early mornings are not an issue . Overnights/ extended care are possibilities too . The circumstances of in home care will vary depending on your preference and location. I'm available for in home care ( overnights / vacation stays) in your home. I bring my own bedding/ food and will be the only person in or around your home. I'm comfortable with reasonable camera surveillance, drug testing, background checks or anything else needed to offer you security that not only your pet is in trusted hands but your home is secure too.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of every kind since I was five years old. My neighbors, friends and family have relied on me for years Im currently working part time here and there. I work part time on and off and running errands for friends and family and my two sisters I have a really really big back yard that is fenced in and the grass is really plush and green. There are tunnels and mazes and toys for your dogs and cats
