About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was 14, watching over dogs and cats for friends, coworkers, and family friends. Growing up in a family that always owned large dog breeds made me very comfortable handling dogs of all sizes and personalities. I understand the patience, attention, and care both dogs and cats need to feel safe and comfortable. I’m experienced with feeding, walking, playtime, and providing reliable, loving care to keep pets happy and well cared for while their owners are away. Pet care fits easily into my daily schedule as I have a flexible routine with plenty of availability throughout the day. This allows me to provide consistent attention, whether it’s morning, afternoon, or evening visits, and be reliable for walks, feeding, playtime, and any special care needs pets may have. I care for pets in my client’s home by following their routine closely, including feeding, walks, and playtime. I ensure fresh water is always available, clean up after pets, and maintain a safe, calm environment. I also give them attention and companionship, watch for any health or behavior changes, and respect the home by keeping everything clean and organized.

About: I love walking dogs and spending quality time outside. Whether it's playing fetch or going for a nice walk, I focus on the dog the entire time—I won’t ignore your dog and play on my phone. I use positive reinforcement and clear commands to set expectations for walks and play time. Your dog deserves meaningful exercise and socialization. I grew up with dogs, but most recently, I’ve cared for my two Weimaraners for 6 years. They receive daily exercise, engagement, and enrichment. Whether you have a high-energy dog who needs longer walks and play sessions or a dog that wants to sniff around and soak up vitamin D, I'll meet your dog where it is. Pet care has been part of my life for several years, and I look forward to spending time with dogs every day. I’m a high school teacher and enjoy regular exercise. Over the summer, I’m available most days and times to care for your dog(s) while you’re at work. When first meeting a dog, I move at their pace. I let them sniff me and familiarize themselves with me without getting in their face or forcing affection. The first few walks will focus on building a connection and relationship with your dog. I use positive reinforcement when walking dogs on a leash or while playing with them in a field or park. I often use the dog’s kibble as their “treat” and reward for good behavior and obedience.

“Amy was an absolute lifesaver when she extended for a week when I was delayed coming home due to a family illness - thanks so much, Amy!! She was so patient with our skittish kitty, finally winning her over, ending with pets and lap naps! I highly recommend this wonderful lady!”

About: Do you have experience with young dogs, old dogs, dogs with special needs, dogs on medication and dogs needing lots of love and exercise. We love to play in this house and are very engaged with your pet. We have two doggy doors and 3 years experience. We are an active family and are willing to play, comfort, and make your pet feel at home. We are looking for pets that have no hostility or history of abuse but rather are comfortable with children. We have experience with all sizes of dogs up to Italian Mastif sized. It would be a blessing to help watch your furry family member. Must love long walks in the grass and running about. Lots of love and snuggles. Party of 5 We are an active, family-oriented household, and someone is home most of the time, which allows us to provide plenty of potty breaks, playtime, and one-on-one attention throughout the day. We love getting outside for walks and activities, but we're just as happy spending quiet time giving belly rubs and snuggles. Your pet will be treated like part of the family and will receive lots of love, care, and companionship while you're away. Providing a safe, loving, and low-stress environment is my top priority. For dogs staying in our home, we have a secure, board-on-board fenced backyard with locked gates and a doggy door that allows them safe access to the outdoors for potty breaks and play. Because someone is home most of the time, pets receive plenty of supervision, attention, and companionship throughout the day. For cats, we create a calm and enriching environment with cozy spaces to relax, plenty of areas to explore, and windows where they can enjoy watching the world go by. I understand that every cat has a different personality, so I take the time to follow their individual routines and comfort levels. When caring for pets in a client's home, I respect their established schedules and routines to help them feel safe and comfortable while their family is away. Whether it's feeding, walks, litter box maintenance, medications, playtime, or lots of affection, I care for every pet as though they were one of my own.

“Nikki is awesome. The girls did not have any issues and we look forward to using Nikki again.”

Notes of your pets usual routines, likes & dislikes help to continue easy days & nights while you are away.

“Angelique took such good care of Champion. I never had to worry during my vacation because I knew he was in good hands. I would definitely recommend her and plan to use her for all my vacations in the future! Thank you again Angelique!”

About: I've been a FT house sitter with 3 large dogs. I took care of the dogs, house and lawn. I've lived with dogs my entire life; different breeds all at once. I have dealt with many different dog problems like weak stomachs and small bladders. I'm flexible and willing to work with you. I have learned to be patient with all dogs because they are all different. I can walk long distances with your dogs, for those needing that exercise and short walks around the block just for business. I am self motivated and would love to take care of your dogs for you. I do not mind brushing dog's hair and teeth or even giving them a bath. If your dog requires medicine, I can administer this also. My oldest dog I used to own, Taz, was a yorkie-poo, who late in life had many complications (heart murmur, torn ACL) but he was a great dog that just needed extra time and help.
