About: Hi! My name is Gianna, and I’ve been around dogs for as long as I can remember. I’m currently an aspiring veterinary student at Saint Francis University, where I’ve had the opportunity to shadow several veterinarians and learn firsthand what it means to care for animals with compassion and skill. While at SFU, I’ve volunteered at a local animal shelter, walking dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. Most of my pet-sitting experience comes from caring for my own family’s dogs and cats, but I’m excited to branch out and help other pet owners, too! As a college athlete, I’m used to staying active—and strong enough to handle even the most enthusiastic big dogs on walks. I’m also no stranger to the less glamorous parts of pet care (yes, poop and pee clean-up included!). Above all, I promise to treat your pets with the same love, patience, and attention that you do. I know how important they are, and I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I’m currently working part-time at Dairy Queen. I get my schedule around 4 days before the next week. So my availability will depend on my work schedule that week which I can update ASAP to when my manager makes the new schedule! * I go back to college August 24th so I can’t take anymore bookings after that weekend. I will be home on breaks so If you need me please reach out! * When caring for pets, I prioritize their safety , comfort, and routine above all else. I understand that each animal has a different personality so some may need more of a specific thing rather than another. I follow instructions given to me by the owners very carefully. Whether that is a feeding time, medication, walks, or going outside to the bathroom. I am very organized so being in your home, I will keep it neat. I love to send pictures to the owners because as an owner I would enjoy seeing mine.

About: Along with having 3 English bulldogs of my own, I’ve cared for other people’s pets for over 10 years. I’m comfortable with any breed and type, from large to small! My dogs are family, and I will treat yours as one of my own. Giving them all the care and attention that our fur children require! I work a full time job, but have flexibility during the work days, and after 5pm work hours. I’m also available all weekend for drop ins or walking! Caring for your animal in the comfort of your home is my specialty, and making sure they’re comfortable and tended to is what I do best! Potty breaks, walks, crating, and more.

About: I’m Alyssa, a lifelong dog lover and proud dog mom to Stella, our loyal German Shepherd, and Beau, a crazy Australian Shepherd mix my husband and I raised and trained from puppies. I’ve been around dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities—from bouncy puppies to gentle seniors—and I truly love getting to know each dog’s unique quirks. I’m especially patient with shy or anxious pups. I take things slow, follow their cues, and make sure they feel safe and comfortable before anything else. At home, I have two toddlers, so I’m very mindful about safety, reading dog body language, and keeping a calm, consistent routine. When your dog is with me, they’ll get plenty of love, attention, exercise, and cuddles—just like family of my own. I am currently unemployed, so I have plenty of time to help you with your animals! I will use my time around dropping off and picking up my kids from daycare to visit your home to care for your animals. When caring for pets in their own home, I do my best to keep their routine as familiar and comfortable as possible. I follow your instructions closely—whether that’s feeding schedules, walk times, medication needs, or special playtime routines—so your pet feels safe and secure while you’re away.

I would like to do initial meet and greets to make sure your pet gets used to who I am and why I’m there. It’s all about making them feel comfortable and still confident.
