I respect and understand all dogs!

Pet care experience

Throughout my life, I have had and taken care of dogs since I was born. My family always set me to work walking, feeding, bathing, and training my dogs and I loved it! All my neighbors had dogs and I would play with them and bring my dogs over to help them become socialized and un-aggressive. I now own my very own dog with my fiancé in our new home! We got her at 5 weeks old in July of 2021 and since then we have raised her into a healthy and energetic girl. I work from home about 60% of the time so i have been able to train, raise, and walk her which has been great at this early stage in her life. I wanted to start taking care of other dogs using this app because we are saving for a wedding and could use the money. Plus it helps me to continuously build my skill of taking care of pets!

Craig and Emily were fantastic! They really went above and beyond taking care of Wilbert. Appreciated the communication and pictures while in their care. Also, super flexible- my flight home was cancelled and needed an additional night. Thank you so much!

Craig is an awesome pet owner to lily. He takes care of the necessities ( feeding, water and exercise ). But he’s the best of entertaining her . He was raised with dogs and cats. As well as fish, gerbils and a bearded dragon. Craig also sat for my German Shepherd and my cats cloud and steph. Craig is very responsible, caring and very engaging! Craig would be a wonderful pet sitter.

Safety, trust & environment

I live in a second story ranch style home that is kept clean and has enough room to move around. All dangerous chemicals and cleaners are hidden out of sight and reach of any dog. When I take dogs out I need to go down a flight of stairs and across the street since I dont have a yard but that doesn't take more than a minute. I own gates and we have multiple rooms if you prefer to have your dog kept seperate from mine.

I work a full time job during the week but I work from home 60-70% of the time with a relativley flexible schedule. I take my dog on 2-3 walks normally in the morning, in the afternoon around lunch time, and after work hours around 4 or 5PM. Most weeknights or weekends work for overnight sits, but I would appreciate scheduling at least 3 days in advance if possible.
