“Nikki was a fantastic dog walker while we were away - 100% reliable, very communicative, and easy to work with.

About: I have had dogs all my life and love taking care of them. We have 3 dogs at home who are all super friendly. I’ve been helping take care of them since I was 7 years old so I have a lot of experience. I’m a college student home for the summer. I am currently working part time in a restaurant so I have a lot of free time to walk dogs, check-in on them, etc. We have fenced in area out back and an area in front that is not fenced in. I have three dogs and two of them we can let go outside without a fence or leash but the third runs so we always put him on a leash or in the fenced in area. We have plenty of dog beds, toys, and treats.

About: I treat every pet like family—dogs, cats, and every animal in between. I take time to understand each animal’s unique personality, preferences, and routines. Whether it’s a playful pup who needs extra exercise or a shy cat who wants a cozy lap and quiet company, I meet pets where they’re at. I’m calm, reliable, and attentive to the little things that matter most—like a favorite toy, feeding schedule, or bedtime habit. Plus, I keep you updated with thoughtful, consistent communication so you always know your pet is safe, happy, and loved. Pet care fits easily into my routine. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I can visit in the mornings before work, during my lunch break, or in the evenings. On weekdays, I’m typically available for up to three visits a day, and I often have even more availability on weekends if needed. I care for pets in their own home, where they’re most comfortable and relaxed. I follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible—whether that means feeding, walking, playtime, administering medication, or just keeping them company. I make sure everything stays clean and calm, and I always respect your space as if it were my own. Every visit includes lots of love, attention, and updates so you know your pet is doing great.

About: I have had a dog since I was born. My dog and I grew up together, learning together. Saying that I’ve had my fair share of experience being with pets. I have always had the responsibility to learn how to take care of them and their needs and we can’t forget having fun with toys and walks. Recently my dog sadly passed away and I would love nothing more being pets again. I currently work night shift during the week. So I’ll be available during the day after 7 am for playtime and walks and making sure they are fed and whatever they may need. I also have the weekends off Unfortunately I do not have a fenced in yard but I do have lots of grass for them to run around in and live in a quiet neighborhood perfect for walks. Since I’m used to having two dogs in the home, I can accommodate most specific needs.

I strive to provide an amazing life for my dogs, and have a schedule which allows me to provide love and companionship for more dogs throughout my community. I currently work from home and have a flexible schedule. I am available any day of the week for walks or drop by visits between the hours of 10am and 8pm. I will be respectful of your home when entering to care for your dogs. I am professional and discrete and will follow any guidelines you provide to ensure the safety of your pets and your home.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was about 7. In my house hold we currently have three dogs and three cats. The cats all behave and I’ve taught the dogs various proper behaviors and tricks. I’ve helped watch new born puppies as well as older dogs and I’m very confident with taking care of any animal. I’m currently working a part-time along with college but I am completely free all day on Thursdays and Fridays to take care of your animals! Everyone handles their pets differently so I can just stick with the routine you currently have with your pets so as to not confuse them!

About: I've had animals since I was a child. I have helped neighbors, friends, and family members care for their furkids. Walking, feeding, caring for them is the least I can do. I provide them with love as if they are my own. I'm currently working at a job that allows me to come and go as I please with plenty of flexibility. I can help at anytime of any day! I have a fenced yard for my 3 Siberian Huskies and my golden retriever. I also have a Cat, 2 Green Cheek Conures, a Chinchilla, and a Sugar Glider. One of my Dogs is Diabetic so I have plenty of experience with administering oral medications and injections.

About: I’ve been around animals since I was 8. I’ve fostered animals, and helped walk, feed, bathe, supply medicine (supplements and pills) to them for friends, family, etc for a little over 8 years now. I’m very experienced with younger dogs and can provide extensive walks / playtime for entertainment and engagement. I also love working with senior dogs as well, and can help provide a calm, stress free environment for them while their owner is away. I currently work full time Mon-Fri 7am-4pm, but am free after 4pm weekdays and anytime on weekends! I can do overnights, or daily check ins. I work from home Thursday and Fridays on my laptop, so if care is needed all day, I’m more than happy to bring my laptop over and watch over the fur babies! I can also do check ins on lunch as needed. I don’t mind cleaning up messes or puddles, and I can travel very flexibly if needed! I am OK helping with crate training, and providing a positive environment for any pup to grow in while their family is away! I have a fur baby of my own who is almost 4 years old, and absolutely adores other dogs! He is neutered, house trained, and very relaxed. He has been a very good role model for our youngest puppy in the house.

About: I have casually cared for pets (neighbors, family members, etc.) for years. Growing up, I had dogs and cats. Now, I have 2 cats, a bird (a cockatiel), a rabbit, and a hamster. I also have experience working on farms (chickens, goats, sheep, alpacas, llamas, & horses). Right now, I have a few families that I pet-sit for and I would love to add more families/households to my usual few. I am an elementary school teacher, so during the summer my hours are very, very flexible. During the school year (minus school vacations) I am working 8-3:30 at school. I am also a youth swim coach and work 4-6:30 on Tuesdays and Thursdays only. I am able to make quick stops to let animals out in between school and swim team, though. I am unable to host animals in my home because I already have so many animals here and it wouldn't be fair to them. I am able to housesit (stay in homes to keep your animals company when I am not at work) and I am also able to drop in to check on them/feed them/walk them/give them love. My check in system is usually once in the morning between 7 & 8, stop by right after school at 3:30 (after letting animals out & walking them, this is when I would give dinner) and then come again right before bedtime to let animals out again. This is a schedule that works for me, but if you have different needs I am happy to meet them, so please ask.

About: I’ve sat my family’s and friends’ pets for years and also take care of my own. I’ve dealt with reactive dogs, nervous dogs, hyper dogs, as well as many different personalities of cats. I’m comfortable with small pets as well. I’m currently working full-time at a vet clinic but have early morning, evening, and weekend availability. I prioritize the care of furry friends over anything else and strive to keep them active and happy. I’m comfortable with caring for all personalities; from reactive dogs to silly hyperactive dogs, as well as feisty kitties. I currently work as a Vet Assistant and previously worked as a daycare attendant, so I am familiar with appropriate discipline.

About: Taking care of pets is something I truly love. Dogs and cats are more than just animals—they’re part of the family. When I walk, feed, or spend time with them, I make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I’m gentle, patient, and pay attention to what each pet needs. Some pets like to play, some like to rest, and others just want someone nearby. I treat every pet like my own, with care and kindness. I also know how hard it can be to leave your pet with someone else. That’s why I do my best to make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable. I watch for little signs—like a tail wag or purring—to know how they’re feeling. Whether it’s a long walk, cuddle time, or just keeping them company, I make sure they’re not just okay, but truly happy. You can count on me to be kind, careful, and always there when your pet needs me. Pet care fits into my daily and weekly routine by making sure I feed, walk, and play with pets consistently, while also paying close attention to their needs and health to keep them safe and comfortable. I care for pets with lots of love and attention, making sure they feel safe and comfortable in their own space. I follow their routines closely, provide fresh food and water, give plenty of playtime and affection, and keep a watchful eye on their health and happiness. My goal is always to create a calm, caring environment where pets feel truly cared for and loved.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats in my family my whole life, as well as horses , donkeys and pigs growing up. Worked with animals in my early teens and twenties for many years. My best employment that I have had is with animals. I’m currently working freelance from my home with my own set hours so I will have plenty of time to schedule walks and drop ins I will walk your dogs in an environment suitable to you, maybe a park? Hiking trail? I will also visit your pets in your own safe environment.

About: I’ve been responsible for taking care of dogs, cats, and a bunny for friends and family. I also have experience working alongside farm animals, and cleaning up after them. I am reliable, and will always have your pets best interest in mind! I am currently working part time, so I have plenty of time for pet care! I have a flexible schedule, and will make sure to respond quickly. When walking dogs I am prepared to take all the necessary steps to keep everyone safe and happy. Including being spatially aware of who and what’s around me, making sure your pet is leashed, and being well informed regarding your pets needs.

Grace Z.
“Grace Z is an extremely well rounded person with a caring heart. I have two German Short Hair-Pointers (very high strung dogs) and she took care of them for days at a time when I was away. She did a great job with them, and not only did the dogs absolutely love her but they became so fond of her I swear they loved her more than me. She is an extremely responsible and attentive person who makes sure that she knows every detail about the dog to provide the best care possible. She always made me feel like my dogs were in great hands whilst often times delivering me with absolutely adorable picture updates. She is overall an superb caretaker and I would recommend her to anyone looking for a pooch-care(er) :)”
