About: I have always loved animals since I was a child. I always wanted to be a dolphin trainer and a zookeeper when I was little. That is still a dream of mine, but life has thrown me some curveballs, that has changed my goals/steps in life at this moment. I first worked at my first animal clinic job in 2010-2011, my first job ever, when I was a junior in high school. It was one of the best jobs I have ever had. I decided that working at a animal clinic would be the best job for me until I could work at a zoo. My favorite subject in school was science and animal studies. I went to college and got my associate's in science, and got a bachelor's in zoology and general studies, with a minor in psychology and half minor in scuba diving. I then worked at my second animal hospital in 2022-2023. I loved that job so much because I got to work and do so many things with dogs and cats, as well as many other types of pets. I have cleaned kennels and runs. I have cleaned litter boxes. I have fed and gave water to dogs and cats. I have given medication to dogs and cats. I have given shots to cats. I have bathed dogs and cats. I have taken dogs out on walks. I have taken dogs out to potty. I have done fecal matter samples. I have cleaned up fecal matter outside in the yard as well as cleaned messes including fecal matter, urine and vomit. I am a stay-at-home mom, with both kids at school, so I have the flexibility to take care of pets all day from Monday to Sunday allowing for full day of playtime and belly rubs. Dogs are let out first thing in the morning and many times throughout the day. I do have a dog in the house already, but he loves other dogs and could use the company since we have moved from his friend (my mom’s dog). I can easily separate dogs if a friendly connection doesn’t work. I can keep our dog separate. I have a safe outside leash out front and will sit out there while dogs are out. I would love to make this a full-time job. I enjoy being with dogs and cats all the time. I definitely will make your pets feel like they are at home and very loved. I have a nice yard and I have a park at walking distance, and safe and nice neighborhood to walk dogs. I have extra leashes on hand, I have treats as well and doggy bags. I have a friendly dog at home, that gets along with other dogs and cats. I do have a crate if any dog needs to be crated. I have plenty of blankets as well. I have litter boxes all around the house and change them regularly.
“I really appreciated Kennedy's flexibility for walking Stella and being able to walk her on such short notice. I could tell that it was a good walk for Stella as when I got home she was not as hyper as usual. I would highly recommend Kennedy!”
“Booked for dog walking and I am confident my dog also gives her 5 stars. My dog loved Ali immediately, first sight. Ali is attentive to her and clearly skilled with her. My dog is intelligent and PARTICULAR about leaving me. Notoriously bad at taking commands from strangers. When Ali arrived for just the second walk, my dog was loving her and ready to head out at the first sight of her. And my dog gets long walks every day the weather allows, so walking alone is not the draw here. Ali communicates beautifully with me as an owner, does great follow-up when she returns from the walk, and clearly loves what she does. No complaints in my house. I don't generally leave my dog care to anyone else, but Ali”

About: Hello! My name is Kristopher, and I am an experienced and dedicated dog sitter who treats every furry friend as if they were my own. With a deep love for animals and years of hands-on experience, I provide attentive care, engaging playtime, and responsible handling for dogs of all sizes and temperaments. 🐶 Daily Routine: - Morning Care: Start the day with feeding, fresh water, and potty breaks. Morning walks or playtime ensure a happy, energetic pup. - Midday Check-ins: Depending on the pet’s needs, a sitter may visit for play, companionship, or a walk to break up the day. - Evening Routine: Dinner, exercise, and settling in for quiet time or cuddles before bedtime. 📆 Weekly Routine: - Scheduling & Coordination: Managing multiple bookings, confirming appointments, and ensuring smooth transitions between clients. - Deep Cleaning & Restocking: Washing pet bowls, cleaning bedding, and making sure supplies (food, treats, and waste bags) are stocked. - Training & Enrichment: If requested, reinforcing training or providing mentally stimulating activities for pets. 🐾 In Your Home: - Create a pet-friendly space with familiar comforts like their bed, toys, and food. - Stick to their routine for feeding, potty breaks, and playtime to minimize stress. - Ensure safety by pet-proofing areas and keeping hazardous items out of reach. - Offer plenty of love, attention, and exercise to keep them happy and active. 🏡 In the Client’s Home: - Follow detailed instructions from the owner regarding feeding, medications, and special needs. - Maintain their daily routine to provide a sense of security and consistency. - Give updates with photos or messages to reassure owners while they’re away. - Keep their environment clean, ensuring water bowls, bedding, and litter areas are fresh.
About: I have grown up caring for animals of all types (dogs, cats, horses, cattle, sheep, goats, pigs, and more) and have previously worked with a local vet to further my passion for animals. Many family and friends have trusted me with the care of their animals through the past 10+ years. I have experience with basic training commands that I have learned from attending training classes with my own dogs with positive reinforcement methods. I am thankful to have a work from home job that I can spend time with my dogs every day. I am generally off work by 4:30 pm on weekdays and am not required to work on weekends. I have one wonderful dog at home. My home would provide the ability to play with other dogs, relax in the house, enjoy time outside in a fenced in part of our yard or on the closed deck with country views. If your dog prefers a crate or a run for some alone time throughout the day that can be arranged as well.

“Rhiannon has worked for me in the past at Lowe's and she's always proven to be very reliable. Whenever I'd assign her a task for the day, she'd always complete it before the deadline and was always very accurate in her work. She's a very trustworthy and professionally driven individual and I think she will go far in whatever career path she decides to pursue and I'm more than positive that she will excel at being a caregiver for dogs and exceed anyone's expectations.”
Kristopher R.
“Kris was a loving caretaker of my cat, he helped with every aspect daily without fail, along with assisting with my dog being taken out and walked. Stellar job, would recommend.”
