About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life. I have dogs ranging from 8 lbs- 78 lbs. I love dogs and always give every dog the attention and love they deserve. I have dealt with blind dogs and skittish dogs. I can easily adapt to the enviroment the dog needs/wants but do not let bad behaviors get by. I also do not believe in "smacking" or punishing a dog in a rough way for any bad behavior. I believe dogs are able to tell when something is not okay by voice, tone, and body language. I want every dog to get the love and attention they deserve. I am willing to spoil a dog to any means and make them forget that you are even gone. I’m a teacher so my summers are very free! I want to be able to keep animals very busy during the summer since it is so nice out! I have experience with “escape artist” dogs so I know how to be safe with animals who may want to escape. I keep an eye on pets all the time especially the ones who may be busy bodies.

About: I’ve always had a deep love for animals, growing up with dogs, cats, birds, and even lizards. My mom was an animal lover, and I’ve followed in her footsteps. I helped my dad with his three cats that my mom used to care for before she passed, driving an hour every week for grooming and bathing (one of them is a bit oversized!). I’d love to care for your beloved pet. Although I can’t have pets of my own due to my wife’s allergies, this makes pet sitting my dream job! I regularly care for my father’s cat, Jack, traveling over an hour each way, so distance is not an issue for me. I work seasonally for a cemetery in Bloomington which leaves me laid off from December 1st to March 1st each year. So I am highly available in that 3 month span, and then on weekends during the rest of the year. I’m here to support you and your beloved pet. I’ve always had a deep love for animals and the people who care for them. When my wife mentioned pet sitting, I was excited to get involved right away. Dogs seem to love me, and cats generally tolerate me—which I think says a lot about my character! I’m reliable, trustworthy, and available when you need me. I’ve been caring for pets since I was young, helping neighbors with feeding, walking, and cleanup. I promise to provide the care and attention your pet deserves and be a great fit for you both!

About: I have 5 dogs in my household that I have trained and taken care of when my family goes out of town for soccer, I am more than happy to cater to your babies as well! I am currently working part time at a trampoline park, so recently business has been slow. Many people are asking for more hours, but there is so much the business can do. I am no opening my options up to pet sitting, because I love animals and I am glad to see families that love there pets as well! I let dogs/puppies out every 2 hours. My personal dogs eat twice a day, but depending on how the clients feeding schedule I can feed as wanted. Water is always available to them. They will get play time with there potty breaks as well.

About: I’ve taken care of many types of animals for over 10 years. I love working with animals, specifically learning how I can take the best care of them. It makes me happy to keep pets and the environment as healthy as possible.💚😁 I have a ginormous yard where there is plenty of space to walk, run, and play around. I am usually visit pets 2-3 times a day, anytime during the day and possibly available for over night stays. If there is anything else you or your pet needs, just ask!! I have a very large yard with no fence. I can keep dogs on a leash if needed. There’s plenty of space to run and play.

About: I’ve been a pet owner since I was 19. I have experience giving medication with my own dogs and worked at a dog boarding place in the past. I promise to love on your dog like they are my own. I work full time Monday through Friday 8:30 am to 5 pm. I’m free most weekends. I’m able to come check on a dog before work and after work. I could possibly go on my lunch break around 1 pm if not too far from my house. Right now I’m not offering services in my house because I have an older dog with vision and health issues. She is more of a people loving dog! At the clients house I will make sure your dog gets plenty of affection and play time. I will try my best to keep them on their normal schedule with potty breaks and meal times. Please make sure to tell me all your dogs favorite things!

My dog Sadie, loved Andrew from the minute she met him, and she's not one to fall in love so easily. Andrew did drop ins for me and i couldn't of been happier with how well he treated Sadie. She even conned him into taking her for walks. I will definately be booking Andrew again in the future. Its such a relief to find someone you can trust.

About: I’ll love your FIDO like he/she was my own. Snuggles and cuddles. I’ve had older and younger. He’s high energy so where are the crazy FIDOS? I’m a wiz at making funny faces. I have no problem with special needs dogs. I have a super duper spoon with peanut butter for them to gobble the medicine. Fetch happens to be one of my favorite times of day. I’ll get your pooch all tuckered out. I have volunteered at animals shelters all over the country. Currently I work for an animal clinic and learn new things everyday. No question is a dumb question when it comes to your fur baby. If I can’t answer it, I’ll YouTube. Just kidding. Thanks for looking at my profile. I currently work full time but when I’m with your babe, I’m 100% committed to their safety. They are my priority. Thank you for reading I have dogs of my own; however, there would be a meet-and-greet before I’d take in a boarder. My dogs are UTD on all vaccines. Extra precautions are taken during feeding times.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life as my family always had a dog. I have helped raise puppies and taken care of all dogs, indoor and outdoor. I have so much fun with dogs and love taking them with me on walks! I currently am a college students who has class during the days, but my classes only take around 3 hours a day. On thursdays, I do have a job I work during the day from 7 am- 3pm. I also do have a part time job that’s schedule changes week to week but currently I’m not working much there! Regardless if you let your dog out in your yard without a leash, I will be requiring a leash (if there are no fences) to keep your dog safe and others around safe. I especially think play time and walking tim are important for animals and their health! I will not be someone who pops in and out super fast and I will build a connection with your pets!

About: I’ve worked as a vet tech for two years, caring for animals of all kinds — from large dogs to tiny exotics! I helped with boarding, feeding, walking, baths, and giving medications, so I’m very comfortable handling pets with different needs. I’ve had dogs my whole life, and I truly love making them feel happy and safe while their owners are away. 😁🤎 I work full time, but my schedule allows plenty of time for pet care — I’m off Mondays and weekends, available after 5 PM on weekdays, and after 2 PM on Fridays. I don’t have any pets of my own right now, so I’d love to fill that space in my life by spending time with other people’s furry friends! I treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether I’m caring for them in your home or mine, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow each pet’s specific routine — including feeding, walks, medication, and playtime — and always pay attention to their behavior and needs. My vet tech experience helps me notice small details that keep pets healthy and happy.

About: Need a break from your puppy? Let me take your baby off your hands for some much needed you time! I offer very low rates and I will never charge extra to watch a puppy as I have one of my own and I know how tough it can be to keep your doggo entertained! Worried your pup will be lonely? Don't be! Your dog will never be lonely as I'm home full time with my 6 month old puppy, Archie, who loves to play! Archie is fully vaccinated and wears his rabies tag everywhere we go. Archie is very friendly with other dogs and would love a friend to run with and play tug-of-war but my apartment is large enough to house other pets separate from my puppy if that is your preference. Does your dog need special treatment or medicine administered? I've got you covered! I'm a third year student doctor currently on virtual rotations (studying/working from home) due to coronavirus and I'd love to treat your dog (or other pet) to some treats! I may be in school to treat humans, but I'm comfortable administering medications and I have experience doing so for everything from ferrets to dogs to pigs. I have owned guinea pigs, ferrets, cats, and dogs so I am comfortable caring for a wide range of pets. Does your pet require a lot of exercise? You're in luck. Mine does too! I take my puppy to the community dog park everyday for at least an hour. In addition my apartment is right across from Lake Michigan and a walking trail that my dog and I frequent in the evenings. If your dog needs more exercise I have a dog park inside my apartment complex where I can take your pup to stretch his legs and play as often as you'd like. I have personal and professional dog sitting experience, medical training, tons of space, and will update you as often as you like with pictures and videos of your pup having a blast with Archie and I. Book with me today and rest easy knowing your pet is in good hands!

About: I grew up always having/taking care of dogs. I also pet sit regularly now. I love animals and would love to have this as something to do outside of work! I also have two kitties named Blue and Harley, so have a lot of experience with cheeky cats, too. I currently work from home, so all I need is my hotspot and laptop. I can house sit for you basically for any length of time and any day/time. I have reliable transportation. I try to leave the home as good as or better than I found it. I truly do love caring for animals.
