About: Im new too Rover, but I have around 2 years of experience caring for dogs while being in college through helping friends and family! During that time I’ve helped feeding, walking, playtime, and sometimes overnight care if they were going on vacation. I’m patient, dependable, and genuinely enjoy being around animals. I understand how important it is for pet owners to feel confident that their dogs are being cared for with intention and love. 😊 I’m currently free for the summer so I have very flexible availability until my classes start up again in August! I would prefer to walk in the mornings due to Vegas heat being too hot for little paws but I am open to whatever is needed About once or twice a week I help take care of my grandparents dog on various days when they need me they are retired so every couple of months they go on cruises and I am usually the one who stays at their house to care for their dog
About: More than just a lifestyle, the ability to communicate with pets is a genuine gift, one I'm grateful to have. There's a certain magnetic connection some individuals share with animals, and I count myself among them. Treating them with respect opens the door to profound understanding and response. The deep bonds I've nurtured with my own and my friends' beloved animals are a testament to this. The thought of the symbiotic relationship between humans and pets fills me with joy. The simple pleasures of running, walking, and playing together highlight this beautiful connection. In a world that often demands human connection, the unique bond we share with our pets offers something truly special and essential. It's a mutual need, a reciprocal love that enriches both our lives. Being a graduate student on summer break means my scheduling is very flexible and I'm readily available. I am not able to host right now. Check fences for gaps or weaknesses. Keep harmful items out of reach. Appropriate and safe chew toys. Comfortable rest area with a crate, bed or quiet corner
About: Besides having dogs as my best friend all my life, I have also worked for Animal shelters and a privately owned rescue shelter. One shelter I worked for had 75 dogs I cared for and learning as much as I could for them was beneficial for my safety and the dogs well being. I am currently retired and have lots of flexibility. I sometimes travel for business but this is easy to work around. And I know well in advance. I have always believed that pets are much like children, if I can see or hear them I have to check on them. I like to be familiar with any "noises" a dog makes for particular needs. I am a published writer and will most likely spend time on my laptop. And I need silence so I hear everything!
About: I have always been very connected to animals of all shapes and sizes. Horses were always my first passion as I used to compete. I would love to give the attention and care that your babies need. I am currently starting my own business and am not working a full-time job at the moment. Being able to make my own schedule is exactly what I am looking for at this time. I do not provide services in my home as I have a reactive dog. This has also helped me work with other animals that need a little extra help with trust. However, I talk to my animals daily. Whether they want me to or not lol. The love and trust my babies have for me is something I value I my home and will value in your home as well.

About: I have 11+ year experience with larger dogs. Besides having my own dog for 11 years, I also care and dog sat for others. India was my 70 lb boxer that I got when she was 3 months old. I had to go to training to learn how to be a patient yet dominate owner. I trained India to walk on leash, sit before coming in the house and before eating, and how to shake! When she got older, I learned to become even more patient with a senior dog who developed disabilities and was on medications. She was my best friend but even though she's no longer with us I look forward to sharing the love, compassion, and caring that India taught me while caring for your faithful friend. I know all the things dogs need to be cared and loved for. I also have experience with caring for cats as well. Feeding, litter box cleaning, playing, and giving medicine (if needed). I'm currently revamping my freelance business which gives me a very flexible schedule. 2 nights a week (Tues/Thursday) I am not available due to training martial arts. I will provide all the care and safety for your pet. Treat them as my own. I am such an animal lover that I couldn't do anything less than provide a safe, trusting environment which can also be fun! Playing and lots of pets are such an important part of caring!

About: I genuinely enjoy the unique bond that we share with our pets. I find happiness by spending time and caring for animals. We all can relate to how unpredictable our days can be. For example, waking up late in a rush, extended work meetings, unexpected events that makes getting home to take care of your pet challenging. As well as the disappointment in the back of our minds knowing our fur babies are at home waiting for us. I understand how much our pets mean to us and I believe you do too by using this site. “Our pets teach us how to be better humans- just by being themselves” I’m currently available to assist with your pets needs.

I treat every pet as if they were my own and provide regular updates, photos, and communication so you can have peace of mind while you're away. I worked as a kennel technician at a dog daycare, so all this comes naturally to me!
