About: i am a reliable and trustworthy individual who will provide exceptional care and attention to your pets when you’re away. i’ve taken care of dogs since i was little and have always loved them. As each year has passed, i’ve taken care of more dogs along with other pets like guinea pigs,birds,fish and cats. i’m capable of taking care of senior dogs and ones with special needs. I know what it’s like to care for an old dog that struggles with certain things. they would still get the exact same amount of attention as any other dog would. i’m very compassionate when it comes to animals. your pets needs are first priority. they’re happiness is what matters most. any pet of yours will be loved on, cuddled and cared for with me looking after them i don’t have a job but i’m still quite busy helping my family out during the week with therapy/doctor appointments. my brother is handicapped and so he has to go to therapy a few days a week all the way up in cincinnati which takes half a day. im also helping homeschool my younger brothers during the week. in my opinion i know the weekends would work the best bc I’m usually not doing anything which means that i could have my full attention on your pet(s). however we could always talk in advance about the schedule and i could make take time during the week work if needed They’ll have my full attention. I will always play with them to get them to exercise and have some fun. I can also take them on walks and runs and take them out for potty breaks. if they need to be fed at a certain time or need any type of medicine then that is very important to know in advance. Also knowing if they get along with other people/pets. we don’t want anything bad happening so knowing anything and everything about your pet(s) in advance is highly recommended.

About: I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends and volunteering over the years. I currently work full time on the weeks at a printing company. I can do weekends almost anytime someone needs me to care for their animal. I care for my pets in many different ways. I have 9 pet at home 7 being reptiles. I let my puppy outside almost anytime he needs to use bathroom. I taught him to signal me. I've trained him to stay in the yard, but I like to go out with him just to make sure. I know not everyone has a dog that stays in the yard. So I do good with dogs on leashes. I can train the basic tricks for your dog, if they need it. I usually feed my dog in the mornings before I go to work at 5am. (Note: i do have a grandfather to let him out) Then around 7pm I feed him his dinner. I'm really good with noticing behaviors of animals and understand them. I try to bond with them to get them to understand me more. I love playing with my puppy and letting him get his exercise. I will definitely do that for your fur family too. I will make sure they have a good time and that they're well fed. I will make sure there will be no accidents in your home. I will keep your little fur babies safe and happy.
About: I’ve been around dogs for as long as I can remember and began dog-sitting for days to weeks at a time beginning 5 years ago. Since then I’ve had 2 dogs in my home and can gladly say I’m their favorite. (I hope) I’m currently working very part time for Louisville City/Racing Lou on game days which is very inconsistent. Therefore I’m free most of the time. My schedule may change if I get another job but for now I’m open to anything! I take care of my pets just as if they were a kid of mine. Feeding them right at the time needed. Making sure they get love and attention, and fun of course. As well as comforting in times of need
About: I’m a SAHM with 3 active kids ages 10,6,5. Animals have been a part of our lives since the day we all could walk. When your animal is in our care we will give them all the love and attention they deserve. We also try and accommodate their normal schedule as much as possible. Whether that be laying and relaxing, or going out for multiple walks. I also have a fenced in back yard for those days where they want to play fetch. We have 2 other pets, one cat and one dog, which both are super laid back. Please make sure your animal loves kids, as they will be around ALOT and will probably over love on your animals ;) Just a house full of love and we love welcoming new ones in! It is now summer break which means.... WE ARE HOME every day! This means tons of walks, play time, nap times, pee breaks. Your animal unless other wise told, will have free roam to our house. We have safety gates that will be put up, if you feel more comfortable them staying in one room. I have a backyard, and if the animal is needing to be crated I can also accommodate that. My animals however, are allowed anywhere in the house that I or my family is allowed. Bedrooms, beds, couches, outside!
