We were happy with Eddie's care of our Maine Coon cat. He came to visit beforehand and got to know Wolfie before we left. We would definitely hire Eddie again.

About: I have a life of experience caring for my own animals including dogs, cats, newborn pups and kittens, a chinchilla, chickens, and geese! I regularly pet sit for my neighbor and have been asked to do the same by many friends. I have the summer off from teaching, so I am pretty flexible until late August! Then my schedule is limited to afternoons and evenings and may depend on location. I'm available to feed and play with your furry loved ones! I'm comfortable administering any medicine they may need as well. I've got it, no sweat!

Rachel is amazing! Maybe a "cat whisperer?!" First time leaving my dog for more than 1 night. I loved the pics I got more than I expected! It eased my mind, so I could concentrate on my work trip duties. She gave great care & love to my 2 cats and 1 dog. Highly recommend! Good job, I will use again!

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, so caring for them has always been second nature to me! I love going on walks, throwing the ball until we’re both tired, and working on little training sessions with treats and a clicker. What I enjoy most though, is getting to know each dog’s personality. I’m always curious about what makes them tick. Why do they carry the same toy everywhere? Why do they love one person and bark at another? Why is the vacuum their greatest enemy? 🤣 Over the years I’ve spent time with dogs of all different personalities and energy levels, and I’ve learned that no two are exactly alike. Taking the time to learn their routines, quirks, and favorite things is one of my favorite parts of caring for them. ❤️ There’s just something special about earning a dog’s trust and watching them get excited to see you. 🥹 I’m usually available after 5pm on weekdays and have a much more flexible schedule on weekends. Whether your dog needs a walk, a potty break, some playtime, or just a friendly face, I’d love to help. ❤️🐶 I’ll always keep you in the loop with updates and pictures so you can relax knowing your pup is getting lots of attention and care while you’re away. ☺️ I pretty much just follow your dog’s lead!! Before the visit, I’d love to hear ALL about them! What they like, what they don’t like, their routine, their weird little habits, all of it.🥰 If they want to play fetch, we’ll play fetch. If they want a walk, we’ll go on a walk. If they want to lay on the couch and get pets while I tell them how cute they are, I can easily do that too. 🤣🥰

Lexi was amazing. I never doubted her ability to address any issue that might arise in my absence. Her communication was daily and kept me abreast of any concerns. She was proactive in predicting potential upcoming challenges and sought solutions so everything went smoothly. Lexi is very professional and met all the expectations I laid out for her before her assignment.

About: My own furry family consists of 3 wolverines (chihuahuas), 1 pit/boxer mix, 3 horses, 2 cats and a gaggle of happy, laying hens. As a lover of ALL animals, you can trust your furry family members to my care. I currently work in healthcare, and I am very blessed to work three days per week, leaving me with abundant free time to enjoy the outdoors. With a wide variety of animals, caring for them is of utmost importance. I remain knowledgeable in animal behaviors, wound management, illnesses and preventative vet care.

Our kitties loved Tim, and they were very happy and calm when we returned home. He provided lots of play time for the younger cats, and lots of photos while we were away. I think they were disappointed it wasn't Tim when we walked in the door!

About: I have taken care of animals since I was 8. I have taken care of bunnies, ferrets, hamsters, cats and dogs! I am a proud dog owner myself. I am very comfortable with walking, feeding, and bathing pets. I am passionate and willing to learn all different breed types and what each specific furbaby needs! I am currently a elementary teacher, so I am looking for a way to continue my passion and love for animals this summer through this service. I am interested in doing part-time work. I care for pets based on the individual pet needs. Making sure that the breed is taken into account, especially as it gets hotter outside. I have a doggy pool and hose system for dogs to play in the background. A very quiet neighborhood for walking. I enjoy playing with dogs inside and outside the home to burn off some energy and making sure that they are getting groomed if thats a requirement. I am comfortable with taking multiple dogs on walks.

About: I have cats and dogs my whole life and I've learned a lot about them. Growing up as a child I learned many things from my mom teaching me about our animals, and wanting to know more because of my love for them. I give animals all the love I have, everytime I see a dog or cat I instantly want to pet them! My love for your animal(s) will be like you loving your own! I am currently working on a flexible schedule so I will have plenty of time to help with your animals! I am pretty open everyday but some things might depend on the day! I haven't yet but I would take care of your animal like my own. I currently have two cats and I love them so much! I would love your pets just as much not only at my house but also when I'm with them in your home!

About: I started off my experience with pet sitting 10 years ago with 2 Bichon dogs. They required a lot of care and I loved every minute I spent with them. I had a dog growing up and she was my pride and joy. When pet sitting, I make sure that I give the pets attention and love that I would like to give my own pet. When pet sitting, I typically have the dog come to me or I can do drop in visits to your home. I can also spend the day going on walks and relaxing with your dog. I do not have a dog of my own, but I do have a lot of experience interacting and caring for all kinds of dogs. I am a teacher, so I have the summer off to be able to take care of your dog during morning and afternoon. I can also take them on long walks. I plan to make sure that your dog gets what they need. For example, make sure that they have food and water. Also, provide them time to be outside and to be active if needed.

About: I have been a volunteer pet sitter for many years helping friends and neighbors. Dogs sense my spirit and respond in kind. I am a hands-on, loving caregiver and my fur baby Wiggles is a generous host who loves to share. If your baby has special needs, we will accommodate seniors, or puppies that need more frequent potty breaks. Our home is very clean. Wiggles has regular vet care and is healthy and vibrant. I work from my home office. Your baby will not be crated (unless you request it) or left unsupervised. They will receive attention and have a buddy to keep them calm and occupied until you come to pick them up. My sweet Wiggles is a 13.5# Shipoo with a happy, loving disposition. Wiggles is very adaptable and welcomes new visitors to her home with enthusiasm. She is very bright and has helped 2 puppies learn to potty outside with the big kids. She loves meeting new fur buddies. She is an energetic and gentle playmate. We only take one dog (or dog family) at a time so your fur baby(s) will receive our complete attention. We go for walks every 2 hours and have at least one adventure per day to the park or other doggie destination. We make our own food and treats and feed every 4 hours with unlimited low-cal treats. We have and expect good manners, but we also believe doggies should be SPOILED. We look forward to meeting and falling in love with your fur baby.
