About: I started my own dog walking business in my neighborhood when I was 14. I have genuine love for dogs, I bring reliability, patience, and attentiveness to every dog walking session. Your furry companion's safety and happiness are my top priorities, and I ensure they receive the exercise and attention they need. From navigating different personalities to handling various breeds, I have the expertise to cater to your dog's unique needs. When you hire me, you're not just getting a walker; you're gaining a trustworthy and compassionate companion for your beloved pet. I am also a intern at a veterinary hospital where I have learned a lot about animal welfare. I currently only have one class from 8am-10:15am and I am free in the early mornings, early and late afternoons, and night time. I work 2 jobs on the weekends so availability on those days may differ. I pamper every single pet I own. My dog gets his own separate dinner plate full of our meal scraps like salmon skins and meat, etc. My 2 cats are nice and plump and have an endless amount of toys. I take my dog to my neighborhood dog park every day to ensure he gets the enrichment he needs.

Katelyn had a great first walk experience with Hoover. She stopped over to meet him first and I felt very comfortable having her come by today to take him out. Great communication and photos. I’ll definitely call her again!

About: I’ve cared for dogs my whole life and truly love spending time with them. I have two dogs of my own and have experience dogsitting multiple dogs at once, including a 15-year-old dog with severe arthritis, so I understand the patience and gentle care senior dogs need. I’m extremely reliable, active, and will always make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away! My schedule is very flexible this summer! I occasionally babysit for family friends and work lacrosse tournaments some weekends, but I am free and available for walks, drop-ins, overnight stays, and pet sitting throughout the week! I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. In their home, I try to follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including their feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions I receive from their owner. I make sure to give them lots of attention, exercise, and cuddles while also keeping the owners home clean and secure. My goal is to help all fur babies feel relaxed and cared for while their owners are away!

About: Dogs have been a part of my life for years through friends, family, and pets I've had the opportunity to care for along the way. Those experiences taught me that every dog has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level, and I take the time to learn what makes each pet feel safe and happy. Today, I'm the proud owner of a Cavapoo puppy, Oreo, which has given me daily hands-on experience with puppy care, exercise, feeding routines, enrichment activities, and positive reinforcement. Caring for my own dog has strengthened my understanding of the patience, consistency, and attention that great pet care requires. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. That's why I prioritize communication, reliability, and regular photo updates so you can feel confident your pet is receiving the same level of care and attention I'd want for my own. Whether your dog enjoys walks, playtime, cuddles, or sticking to a familiar routine, my goal is to help them feel comfortable, cared for, and right at home. Because I work from home, I'm able to maintain a flexible schedule and be present for the pets in my care throughout the day. This allows me to provide regular walks, playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of attention while keeping pets comfortable and on their usual routine. My goal is to create a safe, stress-free experience for both pets and their owners. Because I work from home, I'm able to maintain a flexible schedule and be present for the pets in my care throughout the day. This allows me to provide regular walks, playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of attention while helping pets stay comfortable and on their usual routine. I also have a friendly Cavapoo puppy, Oreo, who loves companionship and can be a great playmate for dogs who enjoy being around other pets. My goal is to create a safe, loving, and stress-free environment where pets feel comfortable, cared for, and right at home while their owners are away.

Shelley took very good care of our dog while we were away. She walked him daily remaining aware of the heat and making accommodations for what our pet could and could not handle. He was happy and not stressed when we returned. I would definitely recommend Shelley E. to others.

About: As an experienced pet sitter and cat owner, I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. By having my own pet I understand the need for patience, attention to detail, and maintaining routines. I provide compassionate care tailored to each pets needs and personality, treating every animal as if they were part of my own family. Im am currently working part time and at most work three times a week. This allows me to have a lot of availability to care for your animals! I care for pets in clients homes by following their normal routines to help pets feel safe and comfortable. I also give regular updates to owners and make sure the pets get plenty of love when their owners are away.
