About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages and sizes. I’ve been around pets since childhood and currently share my home with three wonderful dogs (ages 1, 3, and 16) and a sweet 8-year-old cat. I understand the unique needs of animals at every life stage—from playful puppies and curious kittens to senior pets needing a gentler touch. I truly enjoy building bonds with animals and making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. Whether it’s a walk around the block, playtime, or just some comforting company, I’m here to give your pets the attention and affection they deserve. As someone who works from home, I have the flexibility to provide reliable, loving care for your pets throughout the day. I understand how important it is to make sure our animals feel supported, especially when life gets busy. My own pets attend daycare regularly for socialization, so I know how valuable—yet costly—those services can be. That’s why I’m happy to offer a more personal, affordable alternative. I’m available for walks or drop-in visits up to three times a day to ensure your pets get the attention, exercise, and care they need. I care for every pet and home as if they were my own. My deep love for animals guides everything I do, and their safety and well-being are always my top priorities. You can trust that I’ll treat your pets with the same level of kindness, attention, and respect that I give my own.

About: I have taken care of dogs for three years and have a special connection with them. I’m very genuine and passionate, and I take dog care very seriously. I’m currently unemployed so I have open availability. I live with my parents currently and we have an amazing German Shepherd mix who is calm and precious! I’m comfortable performing all tasks that come with taking care of a dog. Bobby is the name of my brothers German Shepard, I take care of him when my brother is working 4 days a week. I always volunteer to feed and walk any chance I get even when my brother is home.

About: I have owned and worked with dogs for most my life. I have a lot of experience with elderly dogs as well as ones in recovery or have unique health ailments. I have a large yard so that your fur baby can run around with my 2.5 year Golden Retriever as well as a lovely neighborhood for long walks if that is their sort of thing! I am a fully remote worker so have plenty of time to give full attention to your pup! I have a wonderful set up to allow for plenty of access to our yard and a fellow pup for yours to play with I have a fenced in yard with a very friendly and playful pup. I have the space to separate if yours or mine puppy gets overwhelmed with the attention and needs a break. I am near large parks and a regular at the dog park if you would like me to take your puppy further afield.

About: What sets me apart is my natural connection with animals, years of hands-on experience, and a calm, nurturing energy that pets (and their humans!) instantly trust. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely treat every pet like they’re my own. I have experience with dogs and cats of all ages, temperaments, and sizes — from playful puppies needing structure and potty breaks to senior pets who need a slower pace, medication, or extra TLC. I’m comfortable with giving oral meds, managing dietary needs, and recognizing behavior cues before they become an issue. Whether your pet needs high-energy walks, quiet companionship, or a mix of both, I show up with love, responsibility, and a stress-free vibe. My goal is for you to leave home with peace of mind and come back to a happy, healthy pet. Whether it’s morning walks, midday drop-ins, or overnight stays, I’m intentional about giving each pet the time, attention, and consistency they deserve. I work from home with a flexible schedule, which means I can offer dependable care, plenty of check-ins, and quick communication. I’m used to structuring my day around feeding times, potty breaks, medication schedules, and playtime, so your pet’s routine will be followed closely and respectfully. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I focus on keeping your pet’s routine consistent and stress-free. I follow your care instructions closely — from feeding and walk schedules to playtime, medication, and bedtime routines. I make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and relaxed in their own space while also keeping your home tidy and secure. I’ll send regular updates and photos so you always know how things are going. If I’m welcoming pets into my home, they’ll have a calm, cozy environment with lots of love, attention, and supervised play. I maintain a clean space, follow any house rules you set (no furniture, crate training, etc.), and ensure pets get plenty of potty breaks, walks, and downtime. I only take in a limited number of pets at a time to make sure each one gets the care and comfort they deserve.

About: I have been taking care of cats and dogs since I was a little girl. I have gained so much more love and passion for what animals mean to people and what they bring to our families. I walk, feed, playtime, and occasionally dog park days out depending on weather conditions. I am currently at home full time, which leaves a lot of room for me to adventure with my babies and gives an opportunity with the open space and time that I have to help other families with their furbabies. I do have two dogs that are always willing to make new friends. I have a backyard to walk the dogs for potty time and a play area for the dogs in my personal office. The dog park is right around the corner from my house and take them there on occasions.

About: With years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages and sizes, I’m the go-to pet care person for my friends and family. Whether it’s a playful puppy or a calm adult dog, big or small, I’ve got it covered. I’m passionate about animals, always ready to step in and care for a friend's pet. I’m well-versed in managing dogs with dietary restrictions and strict feeding schedules, ensuring they stay healthy and happy. I’ve had my own dog for 9 years, a loyal companion I found on the street, which deepened my love and understanding of pet care. Pet care is seamlessly integrated into my daily and weekly routine. I work from home on Mondays and Fridays, allowing me to spend more time with my dog and any other pets I’m caring for. On Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, I work in the office but have the flexibility to leave at any time or during my lunch hour to check on my pets or provide any necessary care. For the past 9 years, I’ve cared for my own dog every single day, ensuring she gets the attention and love she deserves. I’m also often called upon to care for friends' and family’s pets, whether by staying at their homes or having the pets come to stay with me. Pet care is a priority, and I’m always happy to accommodate any needs that arise. When caring for pets in my client's home, I prioritize respect and responsibility. I make sure to leave the house exactly as I found it, maintaining a clean and tidy environment. I’m adaptable to any pet needs, whether that involves regular potty breaks, crating your pet while I’m out, or administering medication. I’m also happy to assist with additional tasks like checking the mail or watering plants while I’m there. Above all, I ensure that your pet receives plenty of love, attention, and care while you're away, providing you with peace of mind.

About: I fell in love with & have been taking care of animals since I was 8 years old. The majority of my experience is with dogs and cats but I also have experience with caring for rabbits, cows, and horses. Our pets are our family and will be treated as such with me.

Im currently working part-time from home and staying home with my baby. I’m very flexible for walks during weekdays and most weekends if given notice. I’m used to walking my two large (130 lb and 60 lb) dogs simultaneously, so I’m comfortable walking multiple dogs. They don’t have to be great walkers, either! I’ll give them love and patience regardless.

As a single mother, my five-year-old son—nicknamed the ‘cat whisperer’—shares my love for animals and enjoys playing with our furry friends. Our home is a perfect environment for cats, featuring a cat run, multiple scratching posts, cozy hiding boxes, and comfortable beds for your cat to relax in. We take pride in keeping our home and litter boxes exceptionally clean, providing a safe and loving space for your pet. I look forward to providing the best care for your cat, ensuring they feel comfortable, well-loved, and right at home. I work from home and run my own business, which gives me a flexible schedule.
