“Great communication ! Goes above and beyond when walking my puppy ! Would recommend”

Justin R.

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. I’ve volunteered with shelters and own three of my own for the last 10 years. I’m currently working from home and hoping to get out of the house for a bit by doing drop in visits or dog walks. I’m available to board dogs as well so long as any furry guest gets along with the dogs already in the house. I’m comfortable administering medication so long as instructions are given. I’m certified in canine CPR. Im happy to cater to the needs of your dog and follow any instructions you provide. As im working from home, im available nearly all the time except for a few virtual meetings during the week. Our normal routine is a short walk in the morning, they hang out with me while I work, maybe a walk or a game at lunch, more work from home, then free in the evening for movie nights/parks/bite to eat somewhere dog friendly. I have a fenced yard with a doggy door to the back. I have also converted my office into a dog room with space for extra crate if that’s what is preferred. Animals are allowed on furniture at the owners discretion. I recognize all owners do things a bit differently and I know how worrisome it can be to leave them with a stranger so I want to put your mind at ease by conforming my care to how you prefer.

“Great, punctual, was able to come last minute. She was very kind and had a great walk with Francesca! Will definitely be booking on a recurring basis!”

About: Before I became a firefighter I was a vet tech for 6 years. I have been caring for small and large breed animals for over 15 years. I have Experience with aggressive animals as well. The best part about being I the fire service is that we get our schedules a year out so If you have future vacation plans I’ll be able to let you know my availability asap! If your fur baby needs extra snuggles.. I’m here for it! Play time? Just let me know their toy of choice and let’s burn Off some of that energy!

About: You go away? Pet needs to stay? I’m here to play! I have always loved dogs and cats and lived with one or both almost every day of my life. Once I see an animal I love and care for them as if they were my own. When you leave your animal with me, they will miss you, but they will still feel very loved while you’re gone. I have experience with administering medication and I am comfortable cleaning up typical or atypical messes or accidents. Petsitting is my passion. I love dogs and cats so much but there’s only so many I can keep in my home, so when you hire me, I guarantee your pet will feel loved when you are gone. Work-wise, pet sitting is my #1 priority. If I sit in your home, I will “live” there, as much as is comfortable to you. I have 2 friendly cats, a private, quiet and spacious backyard to run and play with a 6ft fence surrounding the house and garage, with a motion detected flood light. I live with my boyfriend who recently completed his rabies shots after trying to rescue a cat that he witnessed being hit by a car but could not leave it to suffer. We both grew up caring for animals of our own and fully believe that animals deserve every good thing we can give them. We have a baby gate that allows our cats to get to their food and litter boxes and will prevent the dogs from getting to the cat spaces. We have a kitchen, dining room, living room and a bedroom for dogs to spend time with me or have alone time in their crate (at least in their own space if they’d prefer). If I pet sit in your home, I will care for your animals and home as if they were my own. I will try to keep their lives as normal as possible, play with their favorite toys, talk and sing to them.

“Somyr did a great job with my pups. One of my dogs will bark your head off and I was a little nervous. After a few treats she told me he was fine and that was amazing to hear and let me know he was comfortable with her. I received the cutest pictures and will be booking again!”

About: I have always since i was a little girl had a love for pets, Family friends would always ask me to watch there dogs and cats when they are out of town and I would be so excited too. I am always the first person people come to when they need someone to watch their dog when they are out of town. I have watched many dogs and cats over the years and i am very responsible when taking care of other peoples pets. I begged my parents for years to get a dog and they finally gave in when i was in 5th grade and i proved to them that I could take care of one. Since then I have had my babygirl daisy who has been my bestest friend. I am great with both dogs and cats and I am very responsible. I am very adaptable and will make sure your pets are well taken care of and have a great time with me as well. Thank you for reviewing my page , and please reach out. I am a senior at Pinecrest High School, and I get out of school in the beginning of june. I currently only have one class at 12 in the afternoon until about 2:05. I also have a part time job that i work at in the evenings about 3 or 4 days a week from about 4-8-8:30. I can check on your pets before work and immediately after. This is the perfect side job for me to do so I can love on animals and make some extra money. I can walk your dog in the mornings before 12, I also can walk them after class. It would be better for the dog to stay at his own home and stay in its own environment. It would be ideal to keep the dogs on its regular schedule. My dog daisy, shes very sweet but is a chihuahua and jack russell mix and gets protective when other dogs come in our home which could add stress to your dog and my dog. I can easily check on your dog before class and after and before work and after work, and first thing in the morning.

About: I have had pets all my life. I have had dogs, cats, birds, and hamsters. Dogs are my favorite and I treat them as part of the family. I currently stay at home and homeschool my son. I have a very flexible schedule. In saying that, I am willing to work around your schedule. I have a large fenced in backyard that your dogs can run free in and have a great time. Or they have space to just lay in the sun, like most dogs enjoy doing at times :)

About: Dogs and cats have been apart of my whole life! On top of being a loving owner, I’m a medical professional trained in emergent life saving procedures for your dog, trained by the military for military working dogs. I have a very flexible schedule, with my work only being a few miles from my residence! I don’t work a traditional 9-5, giving me more time for sitting! I have a single story house on an acre of land, with plenty of shade and room for playing! I live in a neighborhood perfect for walks or runs in a loop, not near a busy road.

About: I’ve been a dog owner for around 5 years. I have trained my Mini Aussie by myself since he was a puppy. I have watched numerous of my friend's dogs over that period. I will meet you in person before services. I can provide services with or without my dog. Additionally, I will send pictures of your pet throughout my time with your baby. I currently walk or play long fetches with my dog every day. I am currently transitioning out of the military. If I am not at a medical appointment or out of town I am available to help! I will never do anything to your animal that you wouldn’t do or want me to do. Everything will be dictated by your rules. I know what works for my dog but that isn’t the case for all animals! My dog is spoiled rotten and I plan to do the same to yours! Dogs are always allowed on the couch and bed in this home. Treats are a must! I will gladly answer any additional questions!

“Kim is absolutely amazing! She understands my pups high energy and clearly enjoys walking with her. I don’t worry about a thing because I know my pup is in good hands. Highly recommended and will keep using her in the future.”

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life, and have been watching them for others since I was in elementary school. Experience with drop in and boarding. I work full time, but work from home and have a flexible schedule! I am able to block my calendar if I know at least one day in advance. I try my best to make sure pets needs are met. I try to limit time in the crate and make sure they’re getting all the playtime they need.

About: I have extensive pet care experience, I am a former Veterinary Technician and am quite comfortable caring for pets with sensitive medical needs. I am able to administer medications whether that be orally, aurally, ocularly or via injection either intravenously or intramuscularly. I also did quite of bit of volunteer work at the Humane Society and am familiar with working with pets that have separation anxiety or a lack of social skills with other animals.

About: I’ve taken care of my own pets for 5 years, my dog for 3, and pet-sat for 2 years consecutively! I’ve also had experience with giving medications and special foods! I’m currently a full-time student and work part time! I am available all day Sundays & Mondays, 10am-2pm weekdays, and occasionally nights (just message me!) I’m really flexible with my schedule! I have a pet (dog and cat) friendly black lab male (he is fixed) to keep your fur babies company! His name is Scout and he is 2 years old!

About: I've grown up caring for multiple breeds of dogs and some cats. I have adopted an older Lab Mix from a kill shelter and he is the sweetest, calm and loving dog. Large dogs are my specialty but I love smaller dogs as well. Caring for them comes natural, on top of giving them plenty of space to run and exercise. I am comfortable giving any dogs medications as I have experience giving my own the same. If there is any specification you'd like for dog boarding, I am more than positive those needs can be met. Walking dogs is an everyday activity I do to keep them mobile and active as well as myself! I just enjoy any type of companionship that comes with caring for dogs! I’m currently working from home which helps allow us to provide full time care for our animals, as well as yours! We’re able to be outside and play anytime throughout the day. We have a large fenced in back yard with lots of room to roam and play outside. With cameras in the front and back yard that helps us keep a close eye on their movement to ensure safety.

About: I bring a wealth of experience to pet care. As a proud owner of three large dogs, I understand the unique needs of energetic and playful pups. From managing daily walks and feeding routines to providing plenty of love and attention, I’ve had years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes. In addition to my personal pet care experience, I have a background in healthcare, which gives me an added layer of attentiveness when it comes to your pet’s well-being. Whether it’s administering medications, monitoring for health concerns, or responding calmly to emergencies, I’m here to provide reliable and loving care for your furry family members. I’d love to meet your pets and ensure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away! Let me know if you’d like any adjustments. As a stay-at-home wife with a love for animals, I’m able to give my pets the best lives possible. My days start with feeding and walking them, and I make time for play, training, and grooming to keep them happy and healthy. In the afternoons, we relax together, and I keep up with their health through regular vet check-ups. Evenings are for another walk, dinner, and some quiet cuddle time before bed. Each week, I focus on deep cleaning and fun activities to keep them engaged. Staying home allows me to give them all the love, care, and attention they need to thrive. As a dedicated pet care provider, I offer flexible services to accommodate your pet’s needs, whether in my home or yours. Here’s how I ensure top-notch care in each setting: In-Home Pet Care (Your Home): • Personalized Attention: I adhere to your pet’s daily routines, including feeding, exercise, and playtime, to maintain their comfort and well-being. • Home Security: Regular visits provide companionship for your pet and enhance home security by maintaining a lived-in appearance. • Specialized Care: With my healthcare background, I’m proficient in administering medications and monitoring health indicators, ensuring your pet’s medical needs are met.

About: What truly sets me apart as a pet sitter is my proactive, personalized approach to care, combined with a genuine passion for every animal's well-being. While many sitters offer basic feeding and walks, I focus on creating a stress-free and enriching environment that caters to each pet's individual needs. I've been taking care of animals since I was 5 years old. It began with our dogs and has expanded to cats, birds, horses, goats, pigs, etc. as we my family purchased a farm. Hi. I am available on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, Saturday and Sundays. The times I am available are from 10AM-11:30AM and 1:30PM-6:30PM. Let me know what works for you. My experience with puppies allows me to seamlessly continue any ongoing house-training or basic obedience work, ensuring consistency during their critical developmental stage. I'm adept at positive reinforcement techniques, helping to reinforce good behaviors and prevent common puppy pitfalls like nipping or jumping. This means your new furry family member won't miss a beat in their learning while you're away. Furthermore, my dedication to senior pet care is a significant differentiator. I understand the unique requirements of older animals, from administering medications (excluding injections) to providing gentle exercise and recognizing subtle signs of discomfort. I'm patient and attentive, ensuring their comfort and maintaining their routine with the utmost sensitivity. I'm also comfortable with mobility assistance and can adapt to any specific health needs your senior pet may have. Beyond these specialized skills, I offer: Proactive Communication: You'll receive regular updates, photos, and videos, so you always feel connected to your pet and have complete peace of mind. I'm quick to communicate any concerns or observations. A Deep Understanding of Animal Behavior: My background has given me insight into reading pet body language, understanding their cues, and responding appropriately, which helps prevent issues and builds a stronger bond. Exceptional Reliability and Trustworthiness: I treat your home and your pets with the same respect and care I would my own, ensuring everything is secure and well-maintained. In essence, I don't just watch pets; I become a temporary, loving extension of your family, dedicated to their happiness, health, and continued well-being.
