Highlights
Pet care experience
At-Home FT Animal Lover
I have had family dogs and cats for over 15 years, have had my own dog for 6 years and a pair of rats and hamsters, and have worked professionally in an animal shelter in Kansas where we provided care for dogs and cats of all ages (newborn to end of life) and special care for those with special needs as well as boarding for animals with owners needing a trusted provider to care for their animals while they’re unavailable. I often pet sit for family and friends and I am mostly always at home.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Miriam was amazing. We need a last minute dog sitter during a holiday weekend and she was quick to respond. While she had our puppy she was very communicative and sent lots of pictures. 10/10 would highly recommend!
Miriam was very helpful in taking care of my dog while we were in town and in need of a sitter. She took good care of my dog and adapted to his needs during his stay. He got plenty of time outside and she was attentive to his food and water intake.
Miriam was awesome with my puppy! She is super responsive and gives lots of updates. I was not worried at all about him knowing he was with her!!
Miriam was so great with my boy! She took such good care of him and communicated with me everyday. She really made me feel comfortable watching my dog, especially during the holidays.
Can't be more satisfied!
Miriam was absolutely the best match to care for my Girl! It was such a pleasant experience from the beginning to the end, and I felt at peace throughout the entire process!

Schedule
I currently stay at home. I have my own dog, my corgi. As well as my 2-year old son, loves our dog and has done well with other dogs that have stayed with us. I have a walking trail behind my apartment so we frequently gear up and go on walks around the neighborhood, although we also enjoy days in — just depends on what we feel like doing that day. I have plenty of time to give scheduled medication or food or exercise or diaper changes if needed for pets.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Apartment living so no yard but yes to two closed-off balconies that would be available for pets to use to look out and relax at while staying with us, also walking trail in the back and a fenced-in dog park in our apartment complex. When inside — which will be the case unless owner wants otherwise such as indoor/outdoor use of the balcony, pets are allowed in all areas of the house unless closed off to my own son but usually wherever my dog is allowed any pet is allowed, also allowed on beds and couches but not counters or tables (pet will be redirected no big deal). Water is available all day, I do not leave food out for my own dog but have an area your pet can stay at if needing a longer time to eat any meals given, if pet is a grazer that can be accommodated for as well. If a bath is needed due to accidents it will be given if pet is friendly and allows me to bathe them. I will also work with pets that aren’t spayed/neutered since my own dog is spayed but will ensure no female or male is being taken care of by me unless one is fixed or they’re all males/all females being taken care of that day. I will mostly be seeing small-medium sized dogs for pet sitting.
Pets
A typical day
There are tons of toys available, both soft and durable. Walks are a given, there is area around the apartment complex where we can walk that’s more private as well as the public walking trail we visit often. I will often open my balcony doors to allow my own dog to walk in and out as she pleases. We will spend lots of time watching TV together or listening to music. During my son’s nap time it’s usually pet time and that just means cuddles on the couch or the floor for my dog/your pet.
