About: I have always had pets of my own my entire life. I am also the go to dog walker, kitty sitter, and fish feeder in my neighborhood. With my medical skills ( with specific instruction from you) I can administer pills and medications as needed. I am highly responsible and will treat your fur babies with much love and follow your routines to keep them happy. I am happy to take them for many walks and play as much ball as they would like:) As a homeowner and pet owner myself. I can appreciate also that leaving your pets in the care of a stranger can be nerve wracking. I will treat your home and pets with the same care and respect I give mine. Since I’m retired, I have the flexibility and availability to give your pets the attention, companionship, and care they deserve throughout the day.

About: I’ve cared for dogs my whole life, including walking, feeding, and giving plenty of attention and love. I’ve also helped neighbors by dog-sitting and walking their pups when needed. I’m patient, reliable, and excited to care for your furry family member! I trained my dog Beau from puppyhood, so I’m familiar with basic commands, house training, and patience needed for young dogs. I’m also comfortable providing gentle care for senior dogs, including help with medication and slower-paced walks. Pet care fits well into my daily routine. On weekdays, I’m available early mornings (5:00–6:30 a.m.) and evenings after 4:30 p.m. I have mostly open availability on weekends and can provide flexible care then. I live in an apartment, so dogs in my care get regular walks and lots of attention. I walk my own dog, Beau, daily and often take him to the dog park for exercise and enrichment. In a client’s home, I follow their routines closely to help pets feel safe and secure. I respect their space, follow all instructions, and make sure pets are comfortable and cared for. I’m always mindful of leash safety, locked doors, and keeping a calm, pet-friendly environment. Owners can trust that I’ll treat their pets and homes with the same care I give my own.

About: Animals have always been part of my daily life — I currently share my home with a sweet 10-year-old cat and a 5-month-old terrier puppy, so I’m no stranger to different personalities or energy levels! Training my own puppy from the start taught me patience, structure, and how to keep even the most playful pets focused and happy. I also have a close relationship with a licensed veterinarian whom I can consult at any time. While I’m not a medical professional myself, this connection gives me added confidence in handling emergency situations calmly and responsibly. I treat every cat and dog like family, making sure they feel loved, secure, and cared for while you’re away. Whether your pet needs calm companionship, structured puppy play, or just someone who understands both meows and woofs, I’ve got it covered. Your pets will get personalized attention, plenty of affection, and the same love and consistency they’re used to at home. Hi there!

About: I love dogs of all kinds. I understand the seperation anxiety a dog can experience when their owners are away and will do everything I can to make them feel comfortable. I don't have any children in the house but lots of toys for the four legged babies to play with. My house is very dog friendly with cushie pillows and dogs beds to snuggle in. I provide fleece blankets for the dogs to lay on if they're not comfortable on the pillows or dog beds. Even with a huge fenced backyard, I will always go out with the dogs to play with them and make sure they stay safe. I have two dogs of my own to keep you dog company.

About: I have always loved animals and have taken care of multiple doggies for friends and family. I understand it can be scary to trust someone with your pets. I have had the same worry with my baby. That is why I offer trust and security to my clients. I am a college student who does this as my secondary source of income. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, I have class until 3:30; however, I am open to any other day of the week, depending on my part-time schedule. My baby GW gets all of my attention when I am home. We go on walks and he loves his treats and ice cubes after every walk. He is potty so I am always letting him out to go potty.

About: I have experience caring for a variety of pets and really enjoy connecting with each one’s unique personality. I’m especially drawn to small- to medium-sized dogs who enjoy both adventures—like hikes or trips to the park—and cozy cuddle time at home. I also love social cats who enjoy attention and interaction. In addition, I have some experience caring for fish and ensuring their environments are clean and healthy. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. I’ve been pet sitting for friends and family alongside my “job” for about 13 years and now my schedule is much more flexible so I’m eager to make this my primary focus. My work schedule fully flexible so I’m able to work around the schedule of the pets.
