About: Unfortunately, your baby will probably not want to go home with you. They always have the best time with me. I spoil them rotten and yes, they do exercise and eat well. But they are my babies when they are with me and they get so much loving. My job entails me to visit offices every day, but I do a lot of my work from my phone. And that’s when your baby comes in to play as I get to interact with them. My yard is completely safe. They can look out into all the neighboring yards and see what’s happening and if they’re not happy then we have to take a walk and see what’s going on so that they can be nosy and I can use them as an excuse to be nosy as well. It’s so much fun living in this neighborhood. They have so much exercise and everybody adores pets.

“Anna was great. The kitties took to her right away. I am very particular about who I will leave them with and she makes me feel very comfortable. Highly recommend!”

About: Growing up in the country, my environment was filled with dogs, which gave me hands-on experience with different breeds early on. I have cared for everything from small, high-energy breeds like Chihuahua's to larger, and stronger breeds like Rottweilers and Pit-bulls. This exposure taught me how to adapt to the unique needs of each dog, including their exercise routines, feeding habits, and personality quirks. My ability to connect with dogs of all sizes and temperaments ensures they feel secure and cared for under my supervision. I have demonstrated and learned all these factors through the San Diego Humane Society and my Dad (dog trainer). Rounded up I have five years of experience with various sizes and breeds, making knowledge, communication, and compassion key skills of mine! These skills have been used to care for all types of dogs, whether it be seniors, new borns, or behavior challenged dogs! Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine, my flexible schedule allows me to prioritize the needs of the animals in my care. As a graduated student, I have the freedom to manage my time efficiently, ensuring I can provide consistent attention and care throughout the day. I schedule feeding times, walks, and play sessions around my coursework, giving each pet the structure they need while staying on top of my responsibilities. My ability to balance these tasks ensures that pets always feel cared for, even during busy periods. Having free weekends also allows me to dedicate more time to pets, who need consistent attention or engagement. I use my time for exercise, mental stimulation, or grooming, depending on the pet’s needs. My focus on time management ensures that pets are always prioritized, with plenty of quality time and attention incorporated into my routine. Whether it’s providing a calm and nurturing environment during the week or engaging in more active care on weekends, I ensure that pet care fits seamlessly into my lifestyle, allowing me to meet the needs of every animal I care for. Caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s home, revolves around creating a safe, nurturing, and comfortable environment that fosters trust and well-being. Safety is my top priority, which includes securing the living space to prevent accidents, removing hazardous items, and ensuring pets have access to fresh water and appropriate food for their dietary needs. I carefully monitor their behavior to identify any signs of distress or illness and address them promptly. For outdoor activities, I use secure leashes or harnesses and supervise them closely to protect them from potential dangers like traffic. Building trust with pets is essential to providing effective care. I take time to understand their unique personalities, preferences, and routines. By approaching them gently, respecting their boundaries, and offering positive reinforcement, creating a sense of security and reliability. Whether it’s maintaining consistency in feeding schedules, spending quality time playing, or offering soothing companionship during quiet moments, I ensure they feel valued and cared for. The environment I provide is clean, stimulating, and adapted to their specific needs. I offer comfortable resting areas, engaging toys, and plenty of space to explore. If I’m in a client’s home, I respect their established routines and follow their care instructions precisely, maintaining a seamless transition for the pet. Ultimately, my approach combines attentiveness, compassion, and professionalism to ensure every pet thrives under my care.

“Joni was amazing with out two crabby, fussy old dogs, going above and beyond to ensure we could relax while away! Highly recommend.”

About: I’ve taken care of friends dogs and have had my own dogs for 25 plus years my son and I donate our time at dog shelters often and I just really love pets So I have Sunday and Mondays off but I work from home Tuesday to Saturday and have a very flexible schedule. I’m up at 5am and free most the AM until 7/8 am I have breaks and lunches during the day and free again after 5pm I have cameras on my property but also can update with pics and videos as requested as often as possible for the owner of the pet

About: I’ve loved dogs since I was a small child but as I’ve gotten older I’ve become extremely interested in the training and grooming side of things. I’ve got experience with dogs ranging from 3 months to as old as 15 years old. I myself go hiking and walking with my dogs (2 year old Australian cattle dog mix) on a daily basis so I’m familiar with regularly exercising dogs. I’ve walked dogs for family members and friends so I’m familiar with walking dogs of all sizes, shapes and temperaments. I’m currently unemployed so I spend more of my time walking and hiking with my personal dogs, I’m very focused on dog training as well. I typically spend about 4-6 hours a day out with my dogs. I’ve been a pet sitter for various family members, sometimes staying with their pets for up to a week. Daily walks, mental stimulation and some training goes a long way for a pup being taken care of by someone else!

About: Growing up as a country girl, I've always had a deep connection with animals and a passion for caring for them. My experience in pet care includes looking after a variety of pets, from cats and dogs to farm animals like horses and goats. I ensure a safe and loving environment for all pets in my care, treating each one as if they were my own. My daily routine allows me to dedicate ample time to play, exercise, and provide personalized care, ensuring that every pet gets the attention they deserve. With a focus on trust and safety, I’m committed to making both pets and their owners feel at ease while I offer my services. I'm currently working for Uber part-time with open availability in the evening after 3pm Mon-Friday. Being self-employed not only allows me to make my own schedule, but I have a very reliable vehicle with lots of space. I've already been transporting dogs and cats with their owners for a couple of years now, and I've gotten wonderful feedback about the level of comfort their furry friends experience during transport! When your pet is in my care, they will be safe and well looked after. I keep a close eye on them and provide secure spaces for playing. I believe trust is important, so I communicate with pet owners to give them peace of mind. Your pet will get personal attention, lots of love, and fun activities, making their time with me enjoyable and stress-free. You can be confident that I will create a friendly and positive atmosphere for all pets!

About: I have had dogs all my life and I have always taken care family and friends dogs. I have a dog of my own he's friendly and social loves to play with others.

About: My name is Sara! I'm a dog enthusiast with 20 years experience training, exercising, and caring for dogs. I graduated from Penn Foster Career School's Dog Training Program. I love to help people fulfill their dogs needs! I look forward to meeting you and your pup! I work with dogs full time so I'm able to fulfill their daily needs with ease. We walk every day but also go on adventures to the park and beach. I'm Pet CPR and First Aid Trained. I have a completely fenced yard, but dogs are supervised at all times. I have experience with fearful dog safety. Dogs are crated or tethered while driving. Someone is almost always home with the dogs. I also have a Furbo video camera to monitor dogs if I do need to leave for a short time. ***Due to having 2-3 dogs staying with me at times, I only offer meet & greets, pick up, and drop off from my clients homes. I find this keeps the excitement and stress level down for all dogs staying. It's also more convenient for you and me. If you want to see the accommodations, I can do a video tour with you.***

“Jennilee was a great help. She took care of our two dogs and one cat for an evening feeding and playtime for a one-week period. She stepped in last-minute and did a great job with pets and a house she didn’t know. Thanks, Jennilee!!”
