About: Animal care is my absolute passion and it's a goal of mine to earn licensure as a vet technician! I grew up on a ranch around animals big and small and for the last 4 years have been professionally pet-sitting; mostly cats and dogs but also rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, and birds. I'm comfortable with any medication administration, special food preparation, or exercise/training requirements that your pet needs and can accommodate any requests. As a fully online student, I have complete flexibility in my day to care for your pet. I'm available daily, including weekends, and accept bookings same-day. I also accept drop in/house sitting requests for most small animals including rodents and reptiles. I have no animals of my own so your pets will have my complete attention and the house to themselves. My apartment complex has plenty of green grass and wildlife for enrichment walks and play, and my home has sunny windows for sunbathing. Safety, trust, and comfortability are my ultimate priorities and I would care for your pets/home the same way I would want someone to care for mine.
About: I understand that your fur babies are your family and can’t wait to meet them. With 32 years of general pet care and ownership experience (and counting), I look forward to loving and caring for your furry family members. I’m a stay at home Mom to a few fur babies and my daughter. My schedule is very flexible and can be adjusted fairly easily with communication. I’m happy to adopt any schedule or routines requested for yours and your pet’s happiness. I’m flexible and can care for your fur babies at any location required. I look forward to welcoming you and your pets into our little family.
About: I have three dogs of my own and helped family with theirs ever since I was little! I can be relied on bathing, feeding, walking, even running with your pup! I’ll be working part-time over this summer break. Not only would I love to take care of anyones pups, but i would also like to start saving money to help me pay for my final semester of school this fall! I have a fenced backyard with three pups of my own. I feed them every morning, and evening at 5pm, while also sitting outside with them, and playing with them.
About: I’ve been an animal lover since birth and began actively helping care for cats and dogs at age 6. I’ve cared for pregnant stray cats and fostered their newborn kittens to young adulthood and beyond. I’ve both raised and helped train dogs from birth as well as caring for elderly pups. I’ve seen animals at all stages of life and cared for them at all stages of life, both cat and dog. I am active and love to walk so if that’s your dog we’ll get along great! I also love relaxing while drinking tea, reading, or gardening, so if your fur baby is a bit on the calmer side or elderly they’ll get plenty of rest, cuddles, and love. I work part-time but I walk/bike daily and have the majority of my days free to walk, play, and love on sweet fur baby’s. I miss having animals in my home and would love to help you with yours! I have a good size fenced-in backyard and am not too worried about little (or big) paws on my furniture. There's room to play either inside or out, a quiet neighborhood to walk in, and a park a few minutes away. If your companion is crate trained I do have my own crates if that is something you need/are interested in. I have had to care for sick as well as elderly babies, both dogs, and cats, so if your pet needs certain accommodations or extra attention I have some experience in working with those that need a little extra help.
“Kind, communicative, & excellent with my chaotic boy. I'm a firm believer that you can usually tell if someone is not a great person by how dogs respond to them. My dog IMMEDIATELY went up to her and was SOOO excited for her attention! She also got a solid walk in during the time frame! Definitely recommend.”

About: Hi! I'm a passionate and attentive pet caregiver with 5+ years of personal experience and 1 year of professional dog-sitting under my belt. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and energy levels—from high-energy pups who love a good run, to mellow seniors who just want a snuggle buddy. One of my own dogs experiences focal seizures, so I’m very familiar with providing calm, capable care in medical situations. I’m also experienced with administering medications (pills, drops, etc.) and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable during the process. My dog Mr. Peanutbutter has had bad experiences with larger dogs so I understand pups who need a little extra care with anxiety. I’ve worked with a variety of animals, including ducks, and I’d be happy to check in on other pets (like cats, birds, or small animals) or care for your plants while you’re away. Whether your pet needs a quick drop-in, an energetic walk, or overnight care, I bring patience, responsibility, and plenty of love to every visit. I treat every animal like they’re my own—and I can’t wait to meet yours! Pet care is my passion and my full time focus while saving up for higher education. Pet care is what I'm focused on when not studying. I only have late night class for 2 hours 1 night a week and at home studying so I have much time to focus on specific needs. My home has a fenced yard with plenty of space to run and and play with a patio area and another fenced off pool area.

About: I’m currently in college to be a nurse. I’ve grown up with animals my whole life, from goats, chickens, and ducks to dogs and cats.

I ensure that all the pets that I have taken care of have the proper food and water they need, as well as get a source of exercise whether it’s a walk or play time, and that they also get lots of cuddles.
“Zoie was wonderful! She was prompt, friendly, and very attentive to my dogs. I booked a 30-minute walk, but she noticed that my senior dogs were already tired after about 15 minutes due to the heat. She reached out right away to check in and thoughtfully recommended taking them home rather than pushing them past their comfort level. I really appreciated her communication and genuine care for my dogs’ well-being. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her.”
“Keryn has been walking my puppy, Sadie, daily and for special events, for about 1.5 months. She's a fantastic walker -- reliable, communicative, and loving with my "shy to new people" doggy. I highly recommend Keryn.”

About: **Pet Care Experience** As a passionate and dedicated pet sitter, my experience is enriched by my love for animals and my commitment to their well-being. What sets me apart from other sitters is my diverse skill set and my attention to the individual needs of each pet. I have experience with a variety of breeds and temperaments, allowing me to tailor my care to suit each animal’s personality. My background includes: - **Training Puppies:** I have successfully trained several puppies in basic obedience commands and socialization techniques, ensuring they develop good behavior and build confidence. I utilize positive reinforcement methods to encourage desired behaviors. - **Senior Pet Care:** I understand the unique requirements of senior pets, such as dietary restrictions, medication management, and gentle exercise routines. I take the time to ensure they are comfortable and provide engaging activities to keep them mentally stimulated. - **First Aid Certification:** I'm certified in pet first aid and CPR, which gives me the ability to handle emergencies effectively and provide immediate care when needed. - **Personalized Care Plans:** I create individualized care plans for each pet, considering their health needs, daily routines, and preferences. This helps foster a sense of security and comfort while their owners are away. With my experience and special skills in pet training and senior care, I strive to provide a nurturing environment that promotes happiness and health for every pet I sit. Pet care is an integral part of my daily and weekly routine, seamlessly blending with my lifestyle and responsibilities. Here’s how I incorporate it: 1. **Morning Routine:** My day starts with a commitment to my own pets or the pets in my care. I ensure they are fed, given fresh water, and taken for a morning walk. This not only helps with their physical health but also establishes a positive start to I maintain a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate various pet care needs. Whether it’s visiting pets during the day for walks and playtime or providing overnight stays, I adjust my activities to ensure each pet receives the attention Throughout the day, I check in with the pets I’m caring for, observing behavior and ensuring they are happy and comfortable. This includes play sessions, training exercises, or simply spending quality time together. I prioritize communication with pet owners. I send regular updates and photos, giving them peace of mind while they are away. This helps build trust and keeps everyone informed about how their pets are doing. In the evenings, I often dedicate time to enrichment activities such as training sessions, games, or leisurely walks. This not only helps with physical exercise but also strengthens the bond between pets and myself. On weekends, I like to plan longer outings or visits to local parks, giving pets the chance to explore new environments and socialize with other animals. These outings help keep them engaged and happy. By incorporating pet care into my daily and weekly routine, I ensure that the pets I look after receive consistent and loving attention, contributing to their overall well-being and happiness. Caring for pets, whether in my home or in my client's home, requires a tailored approach that prioritizes the comfort, safety, and well-being of the animals. Here’s how I manage pet care. My home is equipped with a pet-friendly environment, ensuring that there are no hazards such as toxic plants, small objects, or chemicals within reach. I have designated areas for pets to relax and play. 2. **Daily Routine:** Pets staying with me benefit from a structured routine that includes feeding, exercise, and playtime. I adhere to the feeding schedule provided by the pet owner to foster a loving atmosphere through regular interaction, bonding activities, and enrichment exercises. Whether it's playing fetch, engaging in training sessions, or cuddling, I ensure that pets feel happy and secure. 4. **Health Monitoring:** I keep a close eye on the pets for any signs of discomfort or health issues. Regular check-ins and playtime help me I understand the importance of maintaining a pet’s routine in their familiar surroundings. I follow the client’s specified feeding, walking, and play schedules to provide consistency and comfort. 2. **Safety Protocols:** I ensure that the home is secure, checking that doors and windows are locked and that pets are provided with a safe area to relax. If applicable, I also supervise interactions with other pets or children.
