About: Hi there, dogs are my second nature and I'm super excited to become best friends with your furry companion! I work with all kinds of dogs that rotate on a daily basis, from Yorkies to Pitbulls! I currently work full time between the hours of 11am-7pm daily with the exception of Thursday, which on Thursdays I'm available all the whole day! I for one treat each dog in my custody as my own, which means they get lots of pets and words of encouragement. All that together, we will follow your instructions for handling and treat giving, and I only use the best leashes and harnesses. We will only explore areas discussed and agreed upon as well.

About: I have spent all of my life around animals, and have absolutely loved spending time with them since I was young. As a kid I volunteered at my local shelter, playing with the residents and doing what I could to help take care of them and keep them happy. I personally grew up with both cats and dogs. I was the family member responsible for training and teaching our dogs new commands. I would be more than happy to go on long walks or spend time playing with and keeping your pets company. I am currently a school teacher on break, so I have plenty of time to love on your fur baby! I am currently openly available, until the school year begins in September. Until then, I am generally available during the week from 8 am to 10 pm. Once the school year begins I am available for housesitting for pets that can be left alone for a workday. I can offer drop ins and walks after 3:30 pm on school days. I am more than happy to feed, walk, play with, and love your animals in your home. I have experience with administering insulin to cats as well.

About: I have had a dogs my whole life, and they are what brings me the most joy in life. My last dog Henry passed away almost 2 years ago and since then I have been fostering, which is super rewarding. I have also been volunteering with PAWS for 5 years, and am there every Friday morning to help care for the pups. I have had experience with all kinds of dogs from 80lb Pitties to teeny tiny Chihuahuas, from strays who are terrified when they arrive at the shelter to ones that have boundless energy and love on everyone. My camera roll in my phone is pretty much consumed with pictures of my shelter pups, who I feel so honored to be able to be part of their journey to finding their forever homes. It would be a privilege to add your fur baby to the long list of dogs that I have had the pleasure of having in my life :) I am a real estate agent, so I make my own schedule, and can easily fit caring for your pup around my showings and office time. I will be more than happy to travel to your home and spend some time with your pup. I can walk them, have yard time with them, play fetch or tug of war, feed them, pet them, and just generally spend some time with them while they wait for their humans to come home. If you have extra things that need to get done such as brushing, nail clipping, medicine to give etc, I can take care of that as well. Basically whatever you need done to make your pet feel comfortable and safe, I can handle. I appreciate the opportunity to be part of your pup's routine.

About: I have taken care of my neighbors dogs for 5+ years. I also have a small dog myself who is thirteen. I have worked with many sizes and breeds of dogs over time and am excited to help! I am currently working part time and taking some college courses. I have a lot of free time to hang out with your little dogs! I have a small dog myself and I know how important safety and care. I will treat your dogs as if they were my own!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all sizes. I am available for all your walking and dog-sitting needs. Whether it’s house sitting, walking/feeding the dog, letting him/her out to play, I look forward to caring for your pup! I’m a 3rd grade teacher with availability after school hours as well as weekends and holiday breaks! I am free to drop by on the weekdays or provide more in depth help on weekends and other days off. Trust is huge when it comes to your pet and I am flexible to support all needs with your dog while you are away/busy. You can trust that your dog is in good hands with me! I am good at following directions and will be able to keep up with normal routines and procedures that your dog is used to so that you are comfortable as well as them.

“Jonathan was an excellent sitter for my two cats. He’s prompt and great with communication. Thanks, Jonathan, for your help!”

About: I grew up with a household full of pets, and have cared for puppies, kittens, adult, and elderly animals. I believe in tailoring the care I provide to each animal’s needs and owner’s preferences. I have a full-time job, and am available most evenings and weekends. I work remotely on Tuesdays and Thursdays, so am able to provide walking services during those days. I care for every pet as if it were my own- which includes a little bit of interaction/play time to help each animal build their trust in me.

“Kaydee took extra good care of my very senior boy who was in a splint/cast and required some additional gear and handling before going out. She left my place spotless, had great communication, and very easy to work with. Highly recommend!”

About: Currently, in our family, we have a senior dog, Edie. Edie was a rescue and we've had her since she was four, she's now twelve She is well attended to, from receiving her daily medications, to her regular vet visits. Edie is my constant companion. She is usually by my side all day long. I am currently retired, so I have plenty of time available to watch and care for your K9. I am available with advanced notice. No longer inconvenienced by a work schedule. I am working on several projects for my model railroad club at home since I've retired. Our dog, Edie is well taken care of in our home. We make sure Edie is fed ever morning and receives her daily medications. She is taken to her regular vet visits. Since Edie is an older dog, she doesn't go for walks as often in the summertime but gets regular backyard visits. She does likes to sunbathe. When she's up to it, we wrestle and play rope tug from time to time. Edie is pretty much by my side all day long. You know you're pet the best, I will follow your directions, while you dog is in my care.

“Emilyann was fantastic with my cat. He’s super shy & she was able to coax him out & give some pets. Will definitely book her again!”

“Tricia was really responsive and flexible, and the dogs loved having her stop by. We will absolutely have Tricia watch our dogs again!”

About: I’ve always grown up around cats and dogs; mostly tortoise shell cats, a few adopted strays, and a husky respectively. Most recently I’ve taken care of pit bulls, a malinois, two sibling Jack Russel’s, westies, and an elderly doberman and corgi; to name a few. I always try to keep a calm demeanor, even with high energy dogs. I’ve learned this is paramount when faced with a dog or cat that might have some trust issues or is just generally nervous. Under no circumstance have I been forceful or aggressive, leaning more towards listening and learning from what the dog’s behavior/body language is trying to convey. I’m available for house-sitting on weekends and most weekdays. I am available for daily walks each day of the week before 5:30pm and after 7pm I try my best to be attentive and to honor outside time, even if it seems evident they are getting a bit bored or restless.

About: I have two of my own cats and helped my sister raise a puppy during the pandemic. I also volunteer to walk rescue dogs with Doggie Style. Right now I am looking for work part time and am available mornings through evenings on weekends and after 3PM on weekdays except Tuesday and Wednesday. I have a bike so I can easily make it to different parts of the city! I unfortunately cannot house pets in my home but I am willing to travel and pet sit! We can probably work something out with scheduling.

“Always an amazing and thoughtful caretaker. My pups are pretty particular about people and absolutely love Maria. Communication is easy, the information is detailed, she always does a wonderful job.”

“Nicole is the best. Very helpful.”

About: I grew up with dogs, horses, and other farm animals. I have owned cats for 5+ years now. I prioritize safety, positive reinforcement, active play, and calm environments to set pets and humans up for success as we bond and spend time together. I’m well-experienced in walking/running dogs on a leash, cat and multi-cat household training, medication administering, healthy food & treat training, & animal hygiene. Im currently working part-time and mostly on the weekends. I’m extremely available for work-week care appointments. I can easily build care and walks into my schedule and be flexible as things change. I do not provide overnight care in my home. I am available for overnight care in clients homes, and I prioritize treating your space with respect and privacy. I clean up where I can while caring for animals and go the extra mile to make sure your home is spotless and your pet is safe and entertained while you are away. It’s important to me to be there as long as I can with your pet and to set up enrichment for them after I leave such as puzzles, automatic toys, cat tv, etc etc.

About: I've loved and taken care of dogs and cats my whole life, mine and other people’s too! It started with my childhood German Shepherd, JoJo, who waited at the end of the street every day to run along side the school bus because she knew I was on the that big, yellow, beast. More recently, I loved and cared for my orange and white, Manx cat, Sid, named after Sid Vicious because he was a little vicious when he was a kitten. My experience taking care of other people's dogs began 22 years ago when a co-worker needed help with her Pomeranian when she went on a trip. I dog sat for her several times. When she realized she no longer could keep her Pom, she let me adopt her. For about 4 years, I raised German Shepherds, including ones imported from Germany. During that time, my partner and I also trained German Shepards for a sport called Schutzhund. It's a sport that tests a dog's tracking, obedience and protection skills. I also trained dogs of all breeds and mixed breeds obedience, cute little tricks and manners. You know what I'm taking about with manners! haha jk I love teaching dogs new tricks! I’m comfortable taking care of puppies, adults and senior dogs; anxious and timid dogs and with administering oral and topical medications and following special instructions and giving extra attention and longer walks if desired. If your dog has a strict routine, you can be at peace knowing I will follow your dog’s routine exactly how he/she is accustomed to it being. If you choose me as your dog sitter, your dog will be showered with love, time and attention. I love taking your dog for walks, playing in the backyard and cuddling on the couch, whatever your pet likes, needs, and enjoys. I am here to help! In addition to taking care of your pets, I am a freelance writer and artist working from home, and I have a very flexible schedule. We can make plans in advance for me to take care of your pet and I can usually be available on short notice. When I'm pet sitting in your home, your pets are my focus, but if I do need to step out for any reason, I'll be sure your pets are safe, happy and your home is secure. I'll leave your pets loved, and your home clean for when you return.

About: After my King Charles Cavalier, Dakota, sadly passed away in 2021, I’ve missed the joy that caring for dogs brought me. I’ve dogsat for friends and family since then, and I stop to pet every pup I see on the street. I’m a responsible, detail-oriented law student who is looking to earn some extra money over the summer. I would be honored to meet your pet’s unique needs! As a grad student, I have a flexible summer internship schedule that allows me to have Fridays off. This way, I can schedule my weekend around your pet’s needs! For drop-in visits and walks, I’m aware that I would be entering your dog’s territory. I would ensure that doors are locked and secure when out of the house with your pet, and to leave their setup exactly the way I found it.

About: I’ve grown up with pets all my life and they put the biggest smile on my face! I’ve taken care of my friends and family’s pets for years and no pet has ever not liked me. I will never say no to taking care of a pet for somebody and it’s usually the highlight of my day! I’d love to meet and take care of your furry family member I’m looking to fill my Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday mornings with pet care alongside my other jobs. I have a flexible schedule and love spending my free time caring for animals, giving them attention, and making sure they feel happy and comfortable while their owners are away. I pride myself on creating a comfortable, clean, and fun environment for every pet. Safety and comfort are my top priorities, and I always follow each owner’s instructions, respect their home, and make sure their pets receive plenty of love, attention, and care. I want every pet to feel safe and at ease with me.
