About: Hi! My name is Nikki and I’ve been an animal lover my whole life. I grew up rescuing animals from the streets of Puerto Rico with my mom so I’m no stranger to bottlers and potty training. My husband and I love animals and would love to have the opportunity to take care of yours. We have two amazing golden retrievers who are spoiled (really spoiled) and two kitties who think they are the kings of the house. Our home had 1.4 acres and a fenced in area as well. They have lots of space to roam and play. We are home all day so they will always have someone to take care of them. Our puppies are inside and we let them out as many times as they need. We are also available for walks and drop in visits. We have 1.4 acres and a fenced in area for the puppies to play. Our cats are inside and have lots of space to roam. When on walks we are always communicating and sending updates if needed. We’ll keep your babies safe just like if they were our own.

“Winnie Lu , had such a good week walking with Lindy. She got the job done, and was so reassuring that Winnie was going to be walked while her mommy was out of town.”

About: Worry-free guarantee! I have been house sitting/pet sitting for 10+ years now. I take pride in ensuring my clients feel comfortable and worry-free when I am house sitting. I am a very clean person and tend to go the extra mile to make sure pets are well taken care of. I've lived with dogs the past 15 years and miss having them around. We currently have 4 cats, few chickens, and a bunny at our home. Never a dull day here! I don't mind if clients text or call wanting updates on their pets. I work full-time remotely in IT and can work anywhere with WiFi. Happy to work with clients to accommodate pets' routines to ensure stress-free care. Since we have so many cats at home, I prefer to pet sit at the client's home. This also is best for pets and their routines.

About: I am a recently retired dog groomer that has worked with numerous challenging breeds, whether it be issues like anxiety or aggression, I will try to make any pup my friend, or give them the boundaries they need to be comfortable with a new person in their home! I do work outside of the home during the day, but I make sure they get extra lovings as soon as I am off work! Thanks for reading! Look forward to meeting your pup 🐶 I have a large breed senior dog myself and enjoy working with all sizes and temperaments ! ** in case you are wondering the story behind photo 7, sweet Bianca gets really scared of fireworks and thunder, she has a favorite spot in the bathroom and I didn’t want her to be alone! So I camped in the bathroom with her and brought in the trusty ol kindle. :) I work full time within the community to help underserved communities. I work Monday-Friday typically between 32-40 hours weekly outside of the home. I love coming home to a new face & sticking to a dog’s regular routine. Willing to wake up early for a good walk and some quality time on the couch when dinner comes! When taking care of a clients pet, I try not to stray from their routine and lots of loving. I am extremely patient and will give any dog the time they need to warm up to me - I’m a stranger! By the end of my stay, your dog will miss me when I go out the door - guaranteed by all paws I’ve dogsat for already!

About: Our family simply adores dogs. I personally have owned a dog for the majority of my life and have raised two puppies. My kids (13 and 11 y.o.) love dogs and dogs love them too. We have a very spacious fenced yard and my kids love playing with dogs and keeping them active in our backyard. We also take dogs for nightly walks. Our 6-year old (29lbs) cockapoo does great with dogs of her size or smaller, also with dogs that have moderate energy. She does not seem to feel too comfortable with high energy dogs and that are significantly bigger than her. We don't crate (unless your pooch prefers it) and our guest dogs will sleep with us in bed (if they want). Your furry child will feel right at home with us as we will shower him/her with love and LOTS of cuddles and will treat him/her as part of our family 🐾❤️ I work mostly from home so I'm usually available to spend time with your dog giving them the love and attention they need. We currently have a dog of our own ( 6 y.o. cockapoo) who we care for daily. She is a very friendly dog. We have a fenced back yard and one dog of our own to keep your dog company. We also walk our dog on daily basis to give her extra exercise. My 13 and 11-year old kids love playing with the dogs.

“Margie is the absolute best! She walked our dog for three weeks, an hour each day, right after we had a baby. She is super communicative, friendly, and helpful. Undoubtedly the highlight of our dog’s day was when she would show up. I would hire her 100 times over. Thanks for helping our family when we needed it most!”

About: I grew up with a dog and had my own Boston terrier for 17 years. I love being outside, being active and I am very flexible and accommodating. I work from home so I have a pretty flexible schedule. I’m available for evening weekend nights stay-overs also. I’m a parent and an avid runner so I do those things as well. I’m happy to walk the dogs wherever for as long as you’d like we created my dog at night so that’s what I’m used to, but I know there are our other options and as long as the dog is not aggressive, I’m fine with whatever works

About: I love animals! I go above and beyond to take care of the fluffers left in my care 😊 I have a big heart and enjoy spending time with animals. Anything I can do to make a pupper happy makes me happy. So if that means for long walks, or playing fetch for hours I’m totally in. I love being able to participate in the fun with dogs. I have a fairly flexible work schedule. I share custody of my best friend Olive, the husky with my ex, I have her 2 weeks on and 2 weeks off. She keeps me busy and would love to be able to spend some time with other dogs while she’s not staying with me especially or even if she is. She’s super friendly, super goofy, and is always eager to sniff and say hi to other doggos. But also I recognize some dogs don’t vibe with other dogs, that is something I 100% support. So if your dog doesn’t like other dogs I will keep them away from other dogs Do whatever is needed to make them comfortable and letting them know they are safe and cared for. Going with the flow what the dog is wanting to do. If their ansy? We’ll go walk to the dog park. If their wanting to lounge around, then let’s lounge around lol

“Paul made an immediate connection with our large Labradoodle puppy. He was very reliable and made his visits fun and interesting for our dog.”

“Payton was so wonderful with your 7 yo dog! Always on time and very communicative! We will definitely be using her for walks again in the future!”

About: We are caretakers for all our family and friends fur babies when they need help. For hours or days. We lost our golden doodle to cancer and miss having another dog around but aren’t ready to commit to our own yet. Let us spoil yours! Between the four of us we typically have great flexibility in our schedule. We do work outside of the home so the pups need to be able to withstand 3-4 hours alone. We have a large fenced in yard where they can roam freely or play with balls and sticks or just lay on the sun if they’re lazy 😊

“Ashley was so kind and good with Arnie. She also was very fast at communication and communicative regarding Arnies needs. 10/10 will be hiring again.”

About: Growing up with 10+ pets, I know the importance of ease in knowing your pet is in good hands. Attention to detail, patience and communication are the main core values I bring to the table in all of my pet care. My job relies on me working primarily from home - with very minimal requirements to leave. With this flexibility, I am able to give your pet the proper care they need! They will be cared in the same way that you care for them. When booking with me, I just ask a few questions on how they are trained to know the proper care that they need.

About: I’ve taken care of high-needs pets and am comfortable administering medicines. I’m very familiar with DM, seizure disorders, doing rehab for TPLO surgery for a dog, and other high needs. I enjoy being outdoors year-round and have open availability to care for your pet. I’d love to explore local parks and trails with your dogs! I’m currently our home’s manager and am home all day. My child is in daycare so I have open availability to love on your pets. I will use any leash/ harness requested to walk your dog, and I will pick up after them. I’m happy to provide potty breaks and playtime with your pets as well.

About: I grew up with pets my entire life, and now I have my own - The sweetest miniature dachshund. Pets, as humans, need to release energy and connect with us. My favorite ways to do this are going for walks, playing fetch, joining them in playing with their favorite toys (if wanted), incorporating enrichment activities or toys when it’s too cold to be outside, and getting in love and cuddles if the pet allows it. I’m a registered nurse, but work casually with my facility. I typically pick up a few shifts a week and pick up at a later notice. Therefore, I have more availability and flexibility than the average person. Our dog is fed twice daily, played with or given an enrichment activity daily, taken with us on errands as he loves riding in the car and being with us, goes on walks about once a week (Keep in mind, he’s a small dog and doesn’t need as extensive of activities to exert his energy), has annual visits to the vet, and is given monthly heart worm/tick and flea as prescribed. Of note: I grew up with labrador retrievers, and we made sure to get out and play fetch or go on a walk everyday as they have a higher energy reserve. Therefore, I’ve experienced both larger and smaller breeds and am willing to accommodate how I care for them based on their needs.
