About: Hello! I am a positive-reinforcement based dog trainer and lover who has experience with a plethora of dog breeds, ages, temperaments, and medical issues. I have an extensive history with caring for and training dogs, with a specialization in the training of fearful or reactive dogs. I believe that the responsibility of caring for another’s pet goes beyond the necessities: it is ensuring that the dog is comforted during an often difficult time, and the owner is reassured that their pet is in the best hands. Further, it is necessary to be sure that the animals physical, emotional, and needs are fully met. I hope to establish a relationship with the pet(s) and their owners. I genuinely care about the wellbeing of animals and make a great effort to ensure that the pet is comfortable and well taken care of. I am currently working in other animal care positions and am able to adjust my schedule to your pet’s care needs. My schedule is relatively flexible, and can be adjusted. I have a sweet Shetland Sheepdog who lives with me, as well as cats. I am very cautious about keeping doors (and inside gates) firmly closed to ensure safety,
About: Hi! I’m Gianna — a lifelong animal lover with a dream of becoming a veterinarian. I’ve grown up around dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities, so I’m confident with everything from playful puppies to senior sweethearts. I offer flexible availability, including walks, drop-ins, overnights, and plenty of cuddle time. Whether your pup needs exercise, company, or just a loving presence while you’re away, I’ll treat them like family. Animals are my passion, and your pet’s comfort and safety always come first! I’m currently a flight attendant but I usually only do day trips so I’m always available after or before work. I know my schedule a head of time so that will never be an issue. I’ve grown up always having dogs and cats but since moving out I don’t have any. So I currently don’t have any animals as of now.
About: Hi there, I’m Elliana - it’s so nice to meet you! I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of experience caring for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies to gentle senior dogs. I adore both cats and dogs, and I enjoy everything from long walks and playtime to activities that keep pets mentally stimulated. I’m trained in animal safety and always keep an animal CPR guide on hand. I have experience administering medication to both cats and dogs, providing puppy training, and caring for multiple pets at once. I’ve also looked after pets for families on extended trips of two weeks or more, ensuring they receive plenty of love, attention, and routine care. Whether you need daily walks, play sessions, or extended pet sitting, I’d love to be a helping hand for you and your fur baby! :) I'm currently between jobs/working part-time, so I have plenty of time to devote to pet care. I'd be able to provide multiple walks or check-ins throughout the day if needed. I enjoy long walks during the evening hours. I welcome higher-energy pets as well. My first priority is understanding each pet’s unique needs and their owner’s expectations. Clear communication is important to me so I can ensure that I'm providing the safest and most comfortable experience possible. During walks, I stay fully present, I typically don't like to be on my phone while I'm on a walk. I’m always alert to potential hazards, avoiding anything that could harm your pet.
