About: As an independent contractor, I make my own schedule. This allows me to operate on a very flexible calendar. In addition to being the go-to care taker for the pets in my circle, I also have a lifestyle that allows for me to go the extra mile and hangout longer, play more, and go for longer walks! I currently make my own schedule. So pet care fits in tremendously. I work as a freelance film and commercial laborer. Being in charge of my calendar allows me to schedule accordingly to take care of your pet! Having two cats of my own, while I can't house animals at my own residence, I am very familiar with the needs of pets. Playtime, treats, head scratches, and the like. I love every animal deeply and with a great respect. I treat every space with the utmost dignity and try to keep as small of a footprint as possible when entering someone's home. I have been house sitting, dog/cat watching for many years now. I look forward to ensuring you have an enjoyable, trustworthy experience when working with me.

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my family fostered and cared for cats, which sparked my lifelong passion for animal care and behavior. Professionally, I’ve worked in a dog daycare, pet store, and boarding environment, and have spent the past two years working at an animal shelter. Through these roles, I’ve gained hands on experience caring for cats, dogs, reptiles, and small mammals. I am comfortable handling dogs of all sizes and have experience working with canines who have behavioral challenges such as stranger danger, reactivity, and resource guarding. I am trained in reading canine body language and adjusting my approach to help pets feel safe and comfortable. Cats are also a particular passion of mine. In addition to caring for social cats, I have experience socializing feral and semi-feral cats and working with shy or nervous kitties who need extra patience and understanding. I am also comfortable administering medications, following detailed care instructions, and caring for multi-pet households. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! I currently work at an animal shelter Wednesday through Saturday. Because of this, I am primarily available Sundays through Tuesdays for dog walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting services. I may have drop in availability the other days after 7 pm. I do my best to keep my availability up to date and will always communicate clearly about scheduling so you know exactly what to expect. My goal is to keep your pets as comfortable as possible by maintaining their normal routine while you’re away. I understand that every pet has different needs, personalities, and comfort levels, so I tailor my care to each individual animal. Whether your pet enjoys playtime, walks, enrichment activities, cuddles on the couch, or simply having a calm and respectful presence nearby, I am happy to meet them where they are. I prioritize safety, patience, and positive interactions, especially with nervous or shy pets. Communication is extremely important to me. During visits, I provide updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pets are happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away.

“Patricia is absolutely wonderful! Always on time. Very patient. Great communicator—even sends photos of our guys with updates about the visits. They just love her! The peace of mind she provides is immeasurable.”

“Camryn has been amazing for this first 3 weeks. She scheduled a consultation on short notice, and has been great with timing, communication, and most importantly, care of our dog. We’ll be hiring her for a long time!”

“Fantastic! I shared with Tracy that my dog gets very anxious when new people come to the house. She was very understanding and agreed to meet outside the house and go on a walk for our Meet and Greet. My dog felt very comfortable with Tracy and had no problems when Tracy walked her by herself the next time. I am extremely happy.”

About: I have grown up with dogs all of my life anywhere from a German Shepard to a Dachshund. I understand the importance of trusting and depending on those who care for your loved ones (because dogs are a part of the family too). I love long walks around the neighborhood and ensuring each dog is cared for specifically tailored to their needs and owners preference. Would love a dog of my own however living vicariously through my clients and supporting them in their care of their animals is the next best thing! Flexible on the weekends and mornings/evenings during the week. Caring for animals is just as much a stress reliever for me as it is for them and their owners. Can’t wait to help! I am flexible in availability and capacity for the client needs. I can be adaptive contingent on environment, medical and ability considerations of the animal(s).

“Tory was great with Harper. Being such a young puppy walks were difficult at first but she gave Harper all the attention needed and was patient as she worked on her walking skills. Will definitely use again in the future!”

“Autumn was great with my elderly and shy doggy! She made her so comfortable to the point that’s her new friend only after a couple visits (Lucy is super shy). Autumn was great with communication and just all around a nice and helpful person. Thank you so much!”

“Wow! I'm so happy Gunner was in Jennifer's care. I'm very new to Rover and our pup has only ever been in the care of family. We unexpectedly had to be out of town for the day so I scoured the Rover reviews and reached out to Jennifer the day before. She replied right away & accepted the job. She communicated her arrival at our home, how Gunner did on his walks, his eating, drinking, and behavior with a new person. I'm so happy I chose her & she accepted. I will call on her again for sure & highly recommend.”
