“Danielle was fantastic! She took great care of our pets and clearly spent time with each of them. She provided updates and photos so that we could see our little fur babies while we were away, and she was able to pivot when one of our dogs showed some challenging behaviors. We were really glad to have her, and will definitely book with her again for future travel.”

About: Does your dog like nature walks or is it more of a structured walk play type of animal? I can provide both. We can take long walks outdoors or we can find an area that is more city like and spend some time walking around. I have over 20 years experience caring for dogs. I have kids and treat my pets like my children they will be very loved. I have an open schedule I can work from 6am to at least 9 pm. I do not have a preference on the type of dog as I have owned from toy to giant and can handle them without any problems. We will play catch, run, and will provide obedience training at owners request.Will provide toys. I am currently self employed so I can provide all the love to your pups, right now I have a lot of love to give your baby. I do currently offer overnight services. If client wants dog to play in their personal yard I will follow the direction provided by the owner.

“I’ve had Torrice dog-sit several times and they always do an amazing job. I get lots of pictures and updates, and most importantly my dog is happy and well cared for when I return.”

About: I have a deep, genuine love for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. From energetic puppies to wise old souls, I connect with each dog on their level—with patience, kindness, and respect. Whether a dog is shy, playful, anxious, or bold, I take the time to understand their unique personality and needs. Building trust through gentle care and positive interaction is at the heart of everything I do. For me, dogs aren’t just pets—they’re companions, and I’m honored every time I get to be part of their world. I’m happy to accommodate a wide range of scheduling needs. With at least a week’s notice, I can usually arrange my calendar to fit your preferred times. If something comes up on shorter notice, I’ll do my very best to be available and make it work whenever possible. Flexibility and reliability are important to me, and I’m always here to help when you need a caring hand for your pets. Whether caring for your pet in your home or welcoming them into mine, I always prioritize their comfort, safety, and sense of security. I offer familiar routines, gentle companionship, and attentive care tailored to each pet’s unique personality. I do have a calm, well-behaved cat at home, and I’ll take every precaution to ensure both pets feel safe and at ease if they’ll be sharing space. My goal is to create a peaceful, loving environment—wherever your pet is staying—so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

About: Flexible Scheduling: Whether it’s daily walks, occasional playtime, or last-minute requests, I offer flexible scheduling that works around your life. Daily Updates and Photos: I send you real-time updates and photos of your dog’s walk, so you never miss a moment of their joy! Working from home allows me to provide my dogs with a flexible and enriching daily routine. I ensure they have ample outdoor time, including morning and evening walks, play sessions, and training activities. This setup keeps them physically active and mentally stimulated throughout the day. In my home-based pet care service, I prioritize a safe and comfortable environment for all dogs. With a spacious, fenced yard, my two friendly dogs serve as companions for guest dogs, promoting socialization and play. I ensure that each dog is crate-trained, facilitating easy management and providing a personal space when needed. Before hosting, I conduct thorough meet-and-greets to assess compatibility among dogs, aiming to prevent conflicts and ensure a harmonious atmosphere. I maintain a clean and secure environment, adhering to safety protocols to keep all pets safe. 

About: Hi, I'm a 56-year-old animal lover. I have been a pet sitter for fourteen years and have cared for dog, cats, and birds. I have had Collies, mixed breeds, and Irish Setters. I currently have a four-year-old Irish Setter named Clancy. Clancy has been socialized since he was 8 weeks old. He currently plays with a Beagle, Maltese and a Golden Retriever. Clancy loves making new friends. I cannot take a pet that has not been previously socialized with other dogs. He is up to date on his vaccinations. I have experience giving ear and oral medications. My back yard is 3/4 of an acre. There is plenty of room to run and play. When it's hot outside in the summer my house is air conditioned so we can play inside. Your pet will feel safe on dog walks. I live on a very low traffic street. Of course, your family member will need a nap after playtime. Your loved one will be very comfortable while he/she takes a nap. If you plan on boarding overnight, please make sure you pick him/her up before 5:00 p.m. After 5:00 I will have to apply a daycare fee. Thank you for your cooperation. To make your fur baby more comfortable, I find a blanket or a piece of clothing with your scent will help them. I will not be available on Thanksgiving and Christmas day. I will be available the day after Thanksgiving and starting on December 26th. I'm currently retired and will be home with the fur babies. Grocery shopping and church are the only times I leave the house when I have a fur baby. All the fur babies will be taken out several times a day. All fur babies will be allowed to sleep in bed with me and Clancy.

About: I am currently the director of a local nonprofit cat rescue. We care for community cats. Many with special needs. Through this I have gained knowledge and experience with many medical situations. I can give sub-q fluids, injections and oral meds. I have the experience in handling animals that may need so extra time and care to trust. ​ I have experience caring for and walking dogs of all temperament and sizes. I have found that a good harness/lead that is tailored to fit your dog’s size and walking style is very helpful! Whether they want a quick walk around the block, or a hike on a trail, their adventure awaits with me! If you are looking for someone that you can trust to care for your pets. Look no further. Pet care is my full-time profession, and I’m available 7 days a week to ensure your pet receives personalized, loving attention. Whether you need 1-3 visits a day, a 30-minute walk, or a 1.5-hour adventure hike, I tailor my services to fit your pet’s unique needs. I also offer regular scheduling or house sitting for those times when you’re away. Message me today to secure your spot on my schedule and give your pet the care they deserve. Each care plan is uniquely tailored to both your needs and your pet’s personality. I ensure that all basic necessities are met while incorporating enrichment activities during every visit. I take the time to learn about your pet to create a plan that sets us up for success. For example, if your dog is leash or dog reactive, we will carefully avoid situations that might trigger them, while also working on desensitization and coping strategies to make your walks more enjoyable. For cats, my drop-in visits are similarly customized—not only do I address their fundamental care needs, but I also enrich their day by balancing cuddle time with playful interaction. I understand that while your pets are most comfortable at home, they miss you when you’re away, and I strive to fill that gap with as much love and attention as possible. I will make sure that your home is secure and your pets are safely tucked away when I leave. Dogs will stay in your fenced yard, or safely on a leash for walks.

Ive worked at an animal shelter and have pets of my own. I’m available most days morning noon and night!

“Dasha has been great with both of my dogs! Blue is a new puppy to us and certainly requires much more work, however Dasha was absolutely fantastic with him and he seemed very thrilled with having someone able to come and play with him while I was gone for the day!”

About: Hi, I'm Sheran! I've loved dogs for as long as I can remember, having had a furry companion by my side since the day I was born. From loyal German Shepherds to adorable Morkies, dogs have always been a vital part of my life. They are more than just pets; they are best friends, family members, grief counselors, and anxiety buddies. Their unconditional love truly heals the soul, and I am grateful for every moment spent with them. My Philosophy: I believe that dogs deserve the same care and attention as any human being. They communicate with us in more ways than we often realize, expressing a range of emotions and needs. Understanding your dog's unique way of communication is essential to provide the best care possible. Just like us, dogs experience anxiety and other complex emotions, and it’s important to be there for them, offering support and companionship. Why Choose Us: Flexible Availability: My remote and creatively intensive work allows me the flexibility to dedicate quality time to your dog. Whether it's a walk in the park, a play session, or simply sitting together, I love being there for dogs and ensuring they are happy and well-cared for. Personalized Care: I take the time to understand your dog’s habits, preferences, and needs. Every dog is unique, and I tailor my approach to fit their individual personality. Regular Updates: I believe in clear communication, both with the dogs and their owners. I will provide regular updates and keep a detailed log of my visits. Trust Building: The first few visits will focus on building trust through positive reinforcement, treat and retreat exercises, and lots of playtime. Homey Environment: My wife, who also loves dogs, helps provide a homey, welcoming environment for the puppies while they are away from home. She is featured in the photos on my profile, showing our family setting where your furry friend will be cared for and loved. Special Care: I am experienced in providing special care, such as administering medications and assisting dogs with mobility issues. Your dog's health and happiness are my top priorities, and I am dedicated to accommodating any specific needs they may have. Information Request: If your dog has any special needs or preferences, please let me know. Understanding their likes and dislikes, especially in relation to other people and animals, is crucial for providing the best care. Don't hesitate to share any details—I'm here to ensure your dog feels loved, safe, and happy. I look forward to meeting you and your furry buddy soon! My work is remote and is very flexible, and due to the creative nature of my field video editing I tend to work mostly at night. I have a fenced back yard and plenty of space to run and play. With your permission I can bring well mannered friends for play dates. If your dog is crate trained I’m able to set one up for him or her.

About: I walked dogs for a year for family and friends. I am available full time. I am 100% committed to the needs of you and your dog. Walking, playing, and other exercise related activities. But also willing to chill and keep your dog company. I will take him out frequently for potty breaks, and make sure all his needs are met. I would absolutely love the chance to be there for you and your dog. I understand that animals are really important, and that they are family. I would like to be there for you and your family at a time that you cannot. If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know, and I'll get to you as soon as I can.

About: I have a special passion for senior pets and cats. I possess a bachelor's in Animal Science and work as a veterinary assistant, so I am comfortable with special needs pets. I can give fluids, oral and injectable medications, and manage any other special medical requests. I don't work quite full time, so I have a more flexible schedule than the average person. I have more days that I spend at home than most people. I can care for pets in their home or in my home, but they need to be cat friendly to be in my home. I do not spend nights in client's homes.

About: Heya!! So you might be wondering why I want to do this and if I have the experience to care for your beautiful furbabies- well, don’t you worry, because I do!! I have been an animal lover since the ripe age of 6; the year I got my first pet- a hamster. Six was also the age when I started feeding the neighborhood cats and sneaking them in when it rained. Before then, my family had 2 dogs and we always had fish. So though I was young, I got to learn a lot of responsibility when helping my grandparents take care of them. Fast forward over the years I have owned, sitted and or trained a variety a little critters, from the basic cat, dog, hamsters- to many exotic pets, such as rabbits, ferrets, squirrels, reptiles and birds. (Though there’s probably more). I recently lost two of my babies- Iysis (my dog) and Kovu (my rabbit); of course it’s left me with a big ole heart full of love for animals but, nothing to share pieces of it with. Unfortunately, I’m not allowed to have anymore pets where I live, but I still have so much love to give. I came to the conclusion; why not become a Dog Walker or Pet Sitter!! So here I am!! ☺️ I’m currently working full time (32hrs), which leaves me three days with nothing to do. Why not use that time to love on some animals. When caring for my own pets, I am ever watchful. I ALWAYS notice the most subtle of changes when it comes to my babies, so expect the same perception for your fur babies as well. Your pets safety and well-being is my top priority when they are in my care. All I can do is ask for your trust. I’m willing to take any precautions needed, in order to administer the highest amount of safety and protection for your furry family members n
