“Kathy was amazing!!! She was calm and patient with Roscoe as he was nervous and shy! I highly recommend her!”
About: Cannot remember a time I never had pets (dogs, cats & birds) I believe there is a reason we get the animal we are lucky to bring in the family. Have had pure breeds to now a great rescue mutt. I have trained all my dogs to walk off/on leash to at least have basic manners. The mutt i have now took to a trainer (due to his marking I figured he may have some Shepard…but no). Started all dogs as puppies and stuck with them until the end of our gifted time together. Living with my elderly parents so this is the perfect fit so I can work some and still be available to my parents when needed. Go for walks, play and keep company. Clean up behind the animals and help wherever needed. Can help by keeping the rules you set for your pet.
“Victoria is knowledgeable and caring, and my dog really enjoyed his walk with her. I recommend her 100%!”
“Alexis is the best, my dogs adore her and are always so excited to see her, she does an excellent job taking care of them.”
About: I've been taking care of animals of all kinds since I was a child. I love seeing animals and their owners happy! Getting exercise, enrichment and socializing are a huge source of joy in a dog's life. I personally have certificates in different styles of dog training and obedience and love teaching the basics. I enjoy learning about canine behavior, nutrition, and overall health. I'm starting to learn more about grooming basics as well! What I love most is walking with dogs and showing them the world. I also do doggy day trips upon request. Hello! Feel free to reach out to me with any questions about times and scheduling a meeting. I am pretty flexible during this time of year! ATTENTION FOR MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND! I am completely booked! Rover is not updating availability correctly for this weekend! I apologize for any inconvenience. I have three dogs, two chickens, three snakes, a crested gecko, a bearded dragon, and two fish tanks. Can't forget the husband too in the zoo.
“Thank You for taking good care of our pups!”
“Kristen showed up on time and was very nice to my Moe. I'm happy to have her help and would recommend her to my friends and family. Thanks Kristen!”
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was about 10; my family has had dogs, and I recently volunteered at the local animal shelter for a little over two years. I do have a little experience training dogs as well. I work at a job where I can pretty much make my own schedule so I can work my job around taking care of your babies :) Unfortunately I live in an apartment right now, but I'd definitely be willing to come to you. Whether that be coming over to walk them around for a couple hours and hang with them, or staying overnight with them and having a fun sleepover :)
About: Looking for long term clients and bonding with your pet! Your pet will be treated as a part of my family! I have a fenced in courtyard a screened in porch and a garage where I can seperate animals should there be any that don't get along ! I usually only take one family at a time but, occasionally there’s an overlap! My personal pet is 16 years old , is blind and mostly deaf but I love her to death ! ( my beautiful girl passed away in January 2021) ! Please contact me if you have any special needs or any questions. I'm looking forward to caring for your pet and providing you with an alternative to housing your loved one in a kennel! Personal attention and a home environment is so much less stressful for your pet and for you! Hoping to meet your pet soon!! I am semi retired and my husband is retired so your pets will be well supervised and loved when in our home ! Pets are like people in my house! They can roam most of the house and sleep on furniture! I can also crate them if that makes them comfortable. I am flexible -I just ask that you give me an accurate time for drop off and pickup so I can plan my day ! I am sure to spoil your pup but will follow your requests for feeding/crating . My goal is to always make your dogs stay fun and stress free !
About: I've taken care of animals a majority of my life, and I've loved every second of it. I'm ready to give your pets the care they need and become their new best buddy! I'm currently on a brief leave from work due to a move, so i have plenty of time to play with and take care of your fur babies. I am available most days at the moment, we can discuss what works best for both of us. While I can not take any pets in my home, I am willing to accommodate to any needs your pets have within the comfort of their (and your) own homes.
About: I grew up around dogs since the time I was born. My parents bred dogs in my early years of life, so that automatically gave me experience in caring for dogs. I have been around them and raising them almost my entire life. I've been around shelter dogs, and even worked with a Dog and Cat Day Care briefly. Every dog has their own unique personality, and I strive to bond with each of them in accordance to their needs and desires. I have a large fenced in front and back yard, plenty of room for them to run around and play, as I would run around with them! Or if your dog is more of relaxed lap dog, I can snuggle with them all day! It's all about bonding and connecting with each individual animal for them to feel comfortable and at ease when away from their owners. .
About: I've had dogs since I was a toddler. I love dogs and have cared for puppies and older dogs. I am energetic and love to play . I'm currently finding my niche after working in customer service for years. Dogs have been a part of my life and I am currently looking for my match dog. I have a fenced in yard and your dog can play with me there. I love to walk, so we will be walking a lot. I would snuggle too.
About: While working in a professional environment at Jill's Pet Resort, I was entrusted with the care of a variety of pets. All sizes, breeds and personalities. I developed personal relationships with frequent visitors and treated them all as if they were my own. Within the environment I worked, I was exposed to all facets of pet care to include first aid, cleaning and providing food. This is my dedicated activity and is priority. I work solely to provide care for the pets of owners. I have no conflicts that would interfere with this goal. I live with 2 dogs, 3 birds and care for 6 tanks of fish. I have cared for my own dogs by taking them to parks for exercise or watching over them while in my fenced in back yard. I have cleaned up after accidents and also picked up after them in the yard to make sure the environment they live in is as clean as possible. I feed all my pets on a schedule to include the fish. Understanding the importance of schedules is not foreign to me. I have walked my pets while leashed and have taken them out of the home for socialization.
About: I have lots of experience with a variety of animals, including cats, dogs, and fish. I have owned three dogs and have always lived with roommates who have a furry friend! I am accustomed to long walks and lots of fun activities since most of the dogs I've cared for were high-energy. I also have experience with caring for multiple pets at the same time! My favorite part about pet-sitting is getting to know each pet's unique personality. I also own two pitt-mixes. Their photos are at the end and I adore them!! Right now I am waiting to start an internship June 2nd! I have lots of free time between then and now. I would love to fill my time caring for some sweet puppers! My availability allows me to be booked for multiple consecutive hours if your pet needs more quality time. While I cannot host your pet in my home, I am more than happy to accommodate you by driving out to your location. I find that pet-sitting in your own home allows your pet to enjoy comfort and safety while still receiving excellent care and attention. If you have a preferred dog park, I have plenty of room in my car for your pets to take them to the park!
“Great communication and friendly! Would use Sherry again!”
About: I’ve had several pets growing up. I’ve had cats, dogs, bearded dragons, hamsters, etc. I absolutely love cats and dogs the most. I learned how to walk them, feed them and take care of a pet like you would a child. I can provide help to those who absolutely love their pets but have to work long hours or have to be away from their pet. I care for pets as if they are my own. Loving every single animal as if it was my own baby. I would keep in contact just to continue seeing the dog/cat

I would love to walk and watch your fur babies anytime you need! I am currently on maternity leave with my first so I am available at any day and time! I may be pregnant but I am more than capable of caring for your fur babies! I love to play with dogs and give them the attention they need and deserve. If needed to stay with me I have a fenced in yard and a springer spaniel, he is very friendly to other pets but it would be preferred to go to the owners house as it’s easier for my family. I will do any location and do any routine you have for your pet
