About: I've taken care of animals of all kinds since I was 10 years old. I have had a farm with horses, dogs, ferrets, and cats. I also have experience with training, service dogs, and birds. I'm a teacher and trainer. I do not work summers. I am available anytime any day of the week. I love animals. Thank you for considering me. I have a fenced in yard. I love taking walks and throwing a ball or frisbee etc. Animals make me happy so of course they will be loved and be a part of the family.

6. Selena O.
About: I have had dogs my whole life. Many breeds from labs to aussies to huskies. I can bathe, trim nails, and exercise your pets if need be. I work in a dental office throughout the week but my hours are flexible. I can work around the schedule if I can plan ahead. I plan on following the instructions the client has for the pet. If the pet parent does not want the pet to be off leash or walked in a certain part of town, I will follow those rules. I am particularly about my own dog and her safety so I completely understand where people are coming from when it comes to letting someone else watch their pet.


7. Clare B.

“Clare walked my 2 dogs and did a great job handling my high energy girl. I'm sure they loved getting a stretch in the middle of the day. One of my dogs is dog reactive so I am glad Clare had no problem dealing with anything that came up on the walk.”

“Danielle did a great job!”

About: I've been taken care of animals since I was 8 years old, a few dogs and one cat.. I love animals, domestic and wild. Whether its feeding, companionship, walking, bathing, or treat time, I got you! I'm here because I have a passion for helping others, furry and all. I currently have an open schedule and I walk 4 to 5 times a week, 4 to 6 miles, so a walking partner would be greatly appreciated. I will treat your animals as if they are my own! I currently can't board in home. Any rules or schedule you provide, I will follow.

About: I’ve had animals ever since I was born, ranging from cats, dogs, fish, hamsters, birds, turtles.. And since I was young I helped care for them! Once I hit my pre-teen years I began volunteering at animal shelters, helping with animals of all kinds! I once even held a fundraiser in middle school for a local shelter who needed help gathering supplies for their pets. I have experience with animals who need medications or have special needs! I personally have a small elderly chihuahua and a young playful kitten. I’m currently a college student focusing on my education, so I have plenty of time to assist you with all your pet care needs! I’ll be available to help with your fur babies for as long as you need me to! I do offer services within my own home! I have a small chihuahua, a small kitten, and a child under my roof as well. But, animal safety is my number one priority! I’ve taught my step daughter the utmost of respect towards animals! I can also keep my pets separate from yours if needed!


11. Maria D.
“I cannot say enough good things about Maria. I am very selective about who cares for my boy. When he is with her I have no concerns whatsoever. She cares for hm as if he were her own dog. She ensures he is fed and walked several times a day. He gets plenty of treats as well, When we tell him Maria is coming to see him he gets very excited. If you want a person who you can trust to care for you pet as if it was her own, Maria is your person!”

14. Julia D.
“I have known Julia for a while from a professional standpoint where she has always been respectful and caring of other. The same treatment is also brought over to the pet caring world. She has shared her fun experiences with the dogs she cares for and it appears that the pooches are having lots of fun as she takes them for long walks and provides plenty of loving attention to them. Some dogs have made a mess of themselves a few times while out in the fields, but she cleans them up to ensure they are in tip top shape.”


15. Sonia D.
“I had Sonia and Yanni take care of my dog Bailey while I was on vacation for a week and I just wanted to say they did a fantastic job. Not only did they love my pet as if it were their own, I would get daily updates and pictures of Bailey. I highly recommend anyone who is looking for someone great to watch their fur baby’s!!”
