About: I’ve taken care of dogs for a few years now. I understand your dogs are your babies so taking care of them and modifying to their needs is one of my biggest priorities! I have a lot of free time to take care of your fur babies! The summer weather is perfect for walks! My schedule is very flexible, I would love to plan some meet & greets in order to meet you and your animals! In my home, your dogs would be like a part of my everyday routine.

“Could not have had a better person to look after the girls. So consistent on her arrivals. Apparently the cats loved her. Upon her returning house key, our big gray Tabby jumped off my lap and ran to the front door and blocked Sydney from leaving. Had to lead her out of garage to get to her car. Sydney also drew our shy scaredy cat out on first visit! All three were relaxed and happy upon our return. Sydney many many thanks for taking care of the girls.”
About: Grew up in Florida around a lot of wildlife. Owned dogs, cats, ferrets, snakes fish etc. I love and respect all animals. I can sit in your home or mine. I didn't have fenced yard but acres of private land and can take out in leash. Available 24/7 if needed. I have 4 year old Italian Greyhound retired service dog who gets along with everyone and everything... No worries there. Please make sure your pet is NOT AGGRESSIVE. I am retired therefore my schedule is very flexible. I can stay during the day, night or even overnight if I am needed at that location. I live in condo and cannot board animals. I am willing to stay in clients homes with or without my dog being with me there
About: Ever since my family got a collie as a pet when I was a kid, I have been in love with dogs. That has only enhanced as I’ve grown older and cared for my own. I am currently working remotely from home with a flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time to care for and love on your pets. Prior to walking your pets or stopping by for feedings or playtime, I would like to meet you and your pets first, if possible. That way we can make sure we all feel comfortable! It will also give us a chance to talk through instructions and expectations. I know this isn't always feasible and that's ok.
About: I grew up surrounded by animals and have raised/trained dogs my whole life. I'm responsible, reliable , and clean. I have a lot of time and attention to commit to pets that are in need. I've been in the restaurant industry for 12 years now and have strong worth ethic. I love a good adventure , hikes, and the outdoors. I'm trustworthy and passionate. I'd love to become more independent with my services and plan on becoming a personal chef in the future. Studying nutrition and taking care of animals in need is a goal of mine. I've always been hands on and active in helping with the humane society. I also help care for friend's dogs. This way I can put myself out there and earn some money to strive for my goals.
About: I’ve lived on a farm with lots of animals big and small so watching your pet would be a breeze. I’ve always dog sit and I thought I would continue on this app. I’m home for college so I have all the time in the world! Animals just make me so much happier so taking care of yours would help us both. I check with the owner and how they want me to do things. But take a very personal look at it as if it was my pet someone was watching. Doing everything possible.
About: I currently do not have any pets, but have had multiple throughout the years. I am excited to gain more experience and to take care of pups or cats. I currently work as a remote event planning intern, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with pups! I have free time throughout the day and evenings, while being home for work! I can do whatever you feel comfortable with when caring for your pet. I have a fenced yard and can take them on walks or can crate, if needed.
About: I have grown up volunteering in my local humane society, but have been working in dog daycare for the past 2 years. I also have experience caring for other pets including cats, fish, and even lizards! I offer both walking and house sitting services, but will also train basic commands upon request. My schedule is pretty open as I am home for summer break and am available at any point throughout the day. I am a college student so I will be gone for some parts of the year, but am available when I am home for breaks. my main priority with caring for dogs is to make sure they are as happy and healthy as possible. that can look a variety of ways depending on the dog, but i prefer to offer endless snuggles and training of some sort to provide the perfect amount of stimulation.
About: I have professional experience caring for dogs and cats of various sizes and temperaments as a kennel care attendant. I'm also working towards my bachelor's degree in wildlife rehabilitation! I've owned all kinds of pets growing up from dogs and cats to mice, bunnies, birds, fish, and even a snake and a frog. I will treat your pets the same as my own, with respect and complete adoration. I'll even send you pictures of your pets during each visit for when you're missing your babies. I'm currently working towards a bachelor's of science degree, so I'll be pretty busy in the morning on weekdays (when in Banner elk, nc). My schedule usually calms down after 12pm, except Teusdays which are very busy. Please feel free to message me about what you're looking for and we can see if things will work out. I will not be able to stay at your house 24/7 due to my schedule. I will also have to go home for school breaks (winter/summer/spring). When I am at home (Newport News, VA), I will be available 24/7. Just message me and I'll let you know if my location has changed or will be changing before the date you need. But I will be doing my best to change my location on here in a timely manner. I'm a big advocate for playtime. I won't just stand around your house during the scheduled visits and let your dog be bored. We'll play with toys and run around and if you have a fenced in yard you can be sure I'll be out there throwing a tennis ball or playing tug of war with your pup until they're exhausted. I'll make sure our walks leave your dog well excersized and ready to nap for hours after we get home.
About: I have been pet sitting since I was 15, with family and friends depending on me to provide quality care to their pets. I am familiar with hamsters, guinea pigs, birds, lizards, cats and dogs. I work full time, but I am able to provide potty breaks for my lunch hour. I am fully available on weekends! I am always welcome to discussing a more detailed schedule that meets your needs, as well as your future babies. I have a fenced in yard with fresh water hook up and a large dog house, with a tree that provides shade. I have three amazing dogs that are very animal friendly, especially with our cats. Our dogs are crate trained, so if your pet needs crated for any reason, I can also provide that as well.
