About: Animals have been a big part of my life since I was 10 years old. I grew up with a lot of cats and am currently a cat owner. I spent a lot of time caring for my grandfather's German Shepherds growing up, and later looked after dogs all sizes for the families I worked for as a nanny. Flexible on Wednesdays, Fridays and occasional weekends. I will travel to the city but at an extra cost & travel fee. I am able to watch animals at my house but it is small so I’d rather do over nights at owners place when it comes to multiple dogs. If you have a fenced in yard I’ll play fetch with them and tire them out and give them good scratches and snuggles before I leave. If you do not have a fenced in yard there are plenty of dog parks in the area.

About: Hi! My name is Stephanie. I am an experienced, reliable person who has walked and fed dogs of various sizes! I genuinely enjoy caring for animals. I treat every doggy like my own, giving them patience, love, and attention while making sure they get exercise and the care they need. I'm currently a full-time online student at Arizona State University with a flexible availability throughout the day, making it easy for me to accommodate walks and pet care when you need it. I am committed to providing a safe, reliable, and loving environment you can trust for your pet! I also do have a car for transportation.

About: Hello, my name is Thelma! I am currently an ER Vet Tech, for the last 2 years almost, and working in the ECC Dept. for almost 3 years as an assistant. I am familiar & comfortable administration medications, or fluids. Before I entered Vetmed, I found my connection to animals, by dogsitting frequently. Not to mention, the handful of pets I’ve had. I have been dogsitting for multiple years, with all different kind of breeds. Being in Vetmed and working in the ER, I have extended knowledge and experience when it comes to taking care and watching your pets. I work full-time Sun-Tue, leaving the rest of the week to care for your pet(s). During my work week I am unavailable to sit pets since I work morning straight to night. But any other day (with enough time ahead planning wise) I am free to watch and love your pet! I care for pets in my home by making sure gates are secured and collars are always on! i live in an apartment so their safety is my number one priority. I do not have a backyard for them to hang, so I go out on multiple walks a day with pets to ensure no accidents happen and that they are getting the chance to go to the bathroom, stretch their legs and keep active.

About: I've been an animal lover my whole life and treat every pet as if they were my own. I had the time of my life with my sweet girl, who crossed the Rainbow Bridge last year. She filled my life with love, laughter, and unforgettable memories, and caring for her was one of the greatest privileges of my life. As a special education teacher, I'm patient, dependable, and attentive to each pet's unique personality and needs. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, or relaxing with company, I'll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you're away. I'll follow their routine closely and keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing they're in caring hands. 🐾❤️ Pet care fits very well into my routine, especially since I’m currently off for the summer. This gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability throughout the day for walks, drop-ins, and quality time with pets. During the school year, I have a structured schedule as a special education teacher, which still allows me to be available in the mornings, afternoons, evenings, and on weekends. I’m organized and reliable, and I make sure each pet gets consistent care, attention, and time without feeling rushed. I care for every pet like they’re my own and always focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. In a client’s home, I stick closely to your pet’s normal routine so they feel secure in their familiar environment. I pay close attention to details like feeding instructions, walks, medications, and any special needs. Safety is always my top priority, I make sure doors are secure, pets are properly leashed outside, and they’re never left unattended during visits. I also treat your home with respect and care, leaving everything clean and just as I found it. My goal is to build trust through reliability, communication, and genuine love for animals so you can feel completely at ease while you’re away. 🐾

About: I worked at an animal shelter for a year and a half where I took care of the cats and dogs there, I also worked at a dog groomer that had a daycare. I worked with many dogs of different ages and personalities. I also took care of a family members dog who was blind and needed daily eye drops. I'm able to check in on your pets or walk your dogs any day of the week after 12pm. I can be scheduled as a last minute person for your pets. I will give as many pictures and updates as you want about your pet, so you can see how they're doing. I'll follow all their routines and schedules you give me.

About: I have a plethora of experience in the pet care industry. From dog sitting since I was a teenager to becoming an animal care manager for an animal shelter, I have taken care of animals and pets in many different settings. I will take care of your pets as if they are my own! I am a certified animal control officer who has dealt with difficult situations and handled difficult animals with care. Rest assured I will take care of your pets with the utmost responsibility while making your animals feel comfortable and loved. I work nights so I can take care of animals throughout the morning and afternoon and even stop by later at night. My schedule is very flexible so I can provide full time pet care with enough notice! I will make sure to take care of your pets exactly as you would. I have a medicated senior dog myself who is spoiled beyond belief but with my experience in a shelter environment I have had to adapt to my pet care tactics on a case by case basis. I’m someone who will follow your directions to a T as you know your pets the best.

“Lisa Marie was excellent with our two high-energy dogs! She was prompt and a great communicator. She sent lots of pictures of our pups so we could see they were having a great time and gave thorough reports on how the drop-in visits went. Some of the pics she sent were actually frame-worthy!! Thank you for taking such great care of Linkin and Hudson!”

“John was amazing with Oreo. He was very professional and followed the instructions to care for Oreo during the check-in. Highly recommend him.”

About: Hello, Thank you for stopping by! My name is Jennifer. I currently have 3 kitties of my own. I do know how nerve-racking it could be leaving your pet with someone. I have left prior sitters visuals, maps, drawings when I have gone away (thank you OCD lol). I am probably a bit much but I need to know that while I'm away, my fur children are in nurturing loving hands not missing me. To say I am protective is an understatement. *I just came back to the site after having a few extensive surgeries so please do not go by the early reviews as I was only on here for a few months until I had to have surgeries - I’m doing great now :)* ***Please before you go on reading…yes, I understand my fees are higher than most. Upon meeting me, you will understand why. I will offer knowledge that may help you with your furbaby.If you are having a hard time with behavioral issues where other sitters won’t know what to do, I most likely will. The plethora of knowledge about dogs/cats/horse/fish/etc that is infinite. I may be able to offer you a couple tips that are possibly life changing. No, I do not have all the answers (if anyone says they do…you should most likely run). However, my knowledge regarding animals is far superior than the average pet sitter. I am 43 years old. I have chosen to take on this work because my heart is very into it. However, now that I am mostly home working on a project it makes it easier for me to sit for your pet. Unfortunately, boarding a doggo overnight within my home who has a lot of behavioral issues would not be a good fit for my cats nor is it fair to do this to them. If it is a mini breed or a larger vet well trained dog, we can discuss (please reach out as it can’t hurt to ask). I wouldn’t mind staying at your home on a case by case basis. If you needed me to give your pets a lot of love, adoration, full blown attention-enforce your commands that you’d like for me to withhold, have a couple of cognitive/ physical training sessions to help you with some behavioral issues/keep your pup sharp or even if it’s administering medications, etc…all your pets needs will be meet efficiently. If this is what you seek, I may be your gal. I welcome cameras in the home so that you are able to see how well your beloved companion is doing with me. I wish more people had cameras so that everyone gets to see how their pet is truly doing while you’re away! My experience with animals comes from years over time of being involved with rescue, surrounded by trainers, healers, tons and tons of self knowledge, audio books, old fashioned books, etc. I was born to hear animals and I consider it a huge gift. It is in my nature that when I am with your pet that my FULL attention is with your pet and your pet only. I myself have hired pet sitters who would sit on their phone in front of me while pet sitting and it was pretty irritating. I know the type of person I would want (and not want) watching my animals because I have been there before with kittens/cat/puppies/dogs. Another pet peeve of mine would be walking into a dog park and the owners aren't paying close attention to their dogs. Unfortunately, we live in an age where cell phones have become top priority and then the pup is put into a bad situation because of the lack of attention. I have seen it time after time and it has left me with a bad taste. This will never happen with me. If I don’t like the vibes - I don’t enter in. There is a proper way to introduce dogs and it’s not nose to nose but rather behind to behind. Dogs are not humans (well some are lol) they are dogs. They read the room very differently than how we would. I promise you wholeheartedly that this is something you will never have to worry about. You pet has my UNDIVIDED love and attention at all times on my watch. It is pertinent for your pet that I uphold and take full responsibility as your pet sitter to give them full attention the entire time they are with me. All of my pups learned their basic commands very early on. It means everything to me when a dog is speaking the same language as its owner. I wish to take your lead and follow everything precisely. When putting a dog on a "heel" command during a walk, my attention has to be two places: 1- On the pup and 2- Observant of the environment. I have fostered 2 dogs and have trained 3 dogs. I have broken the prey drive of 2 beautiful pit bulls and one Tree Walking Coonhound/Terrier dog with my cats. I have also broken anxiety of one of the dogs I was fostering. Truly it was a lot of work, time, patience, repetition and more patience but I got to learn so much about speaking dog. They teach you so many things. I had a very hard time finding someone to board my pup when I had him because I knew a bit more than they did which left me on edge. I sifted through a lot of sitters and it wasn't until I had someone teaching me something that I felt 100% confident in leaving my fur baby with them. I have worked along side with trainers and have read heaps fulls of dog language books/manuals/dvd's etc. I have been called the dog whisperer, cat whisperer/animal whisperer. I have also attended workshops for animal communication to further my education with animals. I look forward to building a career from this. I have obtained one Bachelors degree and a second Associates degree as well as obtaining my NYS license for massage therapy (for humans lol). I am very passionate about animals and have been called a healer. I am Reiki 2 Certified and do Reiki for animals. My entire heart is into this because animals don't have a voice. When I tell someone I can speak cat or dog they may look at me like I am from the funny farm but it’s true. There is a way of listening to an animal by its body language, sounds, breathing, even yawning etc. I have been clipping nails since high school of anxious pet owners pets nails, wiped out floppy ears, burrito wrapped cats for clippings, I’m able to administer medicine without a problem (there are tricks for this), brushing, you name it and I've probably done it. Anyway I can help, I am always willing if it’s for the cause of an animal. Snuggles are my favorite thing along with interactive puzzle type of games that your pups will crave if they would be so kind to join me. No job is too big for me to handle : ) Please let me know if you would like the garbage taken out, plants watered, etc. I am able to light housework if necessary. I will send a TON of pics upon your request because I know how on edge, especially first time sits could be for an owner. NOTE***Please let me know if your dog gets along with cats as this is the only way I can accept them for the safety of my own fur children as well as for the safety of your own pup*** Any information provided for your pet, I will adhere to. I always take 30 min to an hour a day for play/brush when it comes to my own. Please let me know your instructions- dog/cats likes and dislikes, allergies etc. I prefer crated pets because with this, it comes security and a lot less anxiety for your pet when used correctly and for positive reinforcement only. I like to think of it as a floating bedroom for them :) Looking forward to meeting you and your fur-baby/fur-babies soon! *Please note, yes…my fees are more than average because I am at a very advanced level when it comes to caring for you furbaby/furbabies. I would be willing to make and exception if the opportunity (especially be it someone local/within my mileage) presented itself! Thank you for carefully reading my profile. I look forward to a meet and greet with you and your fuzzy friend/s. I am currently working from home so I am pretty flexible where as time is concerned. Occasionally I will run to the store and back but it also depends on the dog so if I had to prepare myself a few days before your dogs arrival, I have no problem with this at all. I am flexible where this is concerned :) Let’s talk…maybe there is something I have missed in my profile but I try to be as descriptive as possible. I appreciate you taking the time to read everything I have written. Quite the novel, I am aware but I feel as a fellow pet owner myself, that you would want to know everything about who your pet is spending quality time with so I try to be as thorough as possible 🙂 Please see everything I have written on top as I believe I have covered all my bases where this is concerned. Thank you again for taking the time reading my full profile! Any questions I’d be happy to answer them, just please shoot me a message :)

“Celestine did a fabulous job caring for my two cats this past weekend. They took good care of them, kept them company, fed them, and cleaned up two messes they made. I really appreciated Celestine's care and would definitely hire them again.”

About: Hello my name is Antonio. All my life I have been surrounded by cats and dogs. I love playing with animals and taking them out for long walks. Also, I am able to administer any oral medication or treatment needed for your furry friends!!! I am a middle school special education science teacher, so during the summer I am free. Mondays are my long days but other than that I am pretty much free any day of the week. I treat all animals as if they were my own, and I give them the proper care they deserve. I have a mini fenced in backyard but I may do walks around the block. I am able to provide separation during feedings, and any accommodations that are necessary for your loved one to feel happy and safe.

“Melanie was an absolute gem! She made sure to update me with pictures and videos and followed instructions perfectly. She went above and beyond and played with my cat and made her feel safe. It was really wonderful to be able to trust Melanie in my home and with my pet. She is extremely respectful and an overall joy to know. I would recommend Melanie a thousand times! She will take care of your pets with the upmost love and care.”
