About: From fish to birds, cats to dogs - animals have long been a part of my life. I’ve cared for many types of animals, all at various stages of their life. For me, caring for animals is understanding their personalities and tailoring their care to them. I currently work remotely/at home, making me potentially available during the week for visits, walks, or a watchful eye. Weekends may also be available, on a situational basis. My home has open areas for play or lounging, a fenced in back court area, and walk-able areas around town for fresh air. Within the clients home, I’m open to specific care rules and want to provide a consistent level of care the pet is used to.
About: I grew up around all sorts of different dogs, and I love to play with them. Whether it's a walk, a brushing, or just want me to hang out with them, I'm the girl for you! I will say that I am quite small myself so if your dog is 70+ lbs and/or strong then you may be better finding a different sitter 😅 I am not very strong haha I'm currently between jobs so this allows me to be free basically whenever you need me to be! Plus, this allows me to better create a schedule around your needs :) I will do whatever is needed of me. If you need me for house sitting, I have my own activities to keep me occupied, so no worries about me being nosy :)
“Jora and Darcy are besties! She’s extremely knowledgeable and did better with her than I’ve ever experienced with a walker, Darcy and I can’t wait to see her again!”
“Our pup is always so excited to see Brittany. She is punctual and thorough and sends great pictures of their whole time together. In short, she's the best!”
“Elizabeth was great. She did a meet and greet with my dog prior to the first walk. She was professional, great with communication, and she was very patient with Riley. I would definitely recommend her.”
“Nicole took great care of our pup while we were away! We will definitely book her again!”
“Avery is so wonderful! She helped us out with walks for our new puppy and was incredibly attentive to our training process. Our dogs loved her and she always provided so many cute pictures and thorough updates. We’ll be using her for all of our pet care needs moving forward. I’m so happy we found her!!”
About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was 7 years-old, and my parents told me our family dog was my responsibility. I have had six dogs of my own over the years, including one foster dog that I had for several years. I have dog sat for many of my friends and neighbors over the years, as everyone knows how much I love dogs! I currently work from home in New Orleans and spend all day with my loveable Golden Retriever, Louie! He gets along very well with other dogs and is happy to host them in his house and backyard. We would love to care for your best canine friend as well! I currently work fulltime from home so I am able to be home nearly all of the day with your dog(s). I will be at home on the computer or on the phone so your dogs will be with me almost all times of the day. I know what it's like to leave your dog babies with other people when you travel so I try to give them as much attention as I can. I'll also keep you well updated while you're gone as well.
