About: Welcome to It’s a Dog’s Life! 🐶 I am your go to pet sitter! I love all animals, especially dogs. I love long walks in the park (or neighborhood lol) and small picnic lunches! I am new to town and have a full time job from 8-5 but I take an hour lunch for potty breaks! I am great with puppers that need minimal attention and can be left for hours at a time. I have had dogs of my own all of my life & let me just say if I could have every dog in the world I would!! I have my own transportation to get to you and your pets and for any unexpected pet emergencies. If your pet has any special needs or instructions, no problem at all, including puppy training and caring for elderly dogs. I will give your furry loved ones all the love, care, and attention they deserve! If you have any questions just let me know! I look forward to caring for your furry 4 legged family member! REQUESTED INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR PET When filling out your dogs profile please include the following! -Feeding Schedule -Potty Schedule -Sleep Schedule -Any type of anxiety, aggression or destructive behavior I have plenty of dogs bowls , leashes , treats , and toys.

I will provide cuddles galore and unlimited potty breaks since I am a stay at home mom! Our furry guest stay indoors at all times until they are ready to go explore the backyard! I am new to town and work full time Monday-Friday 8-5 and take an hour lunch for potty breaks, walks and cuddles. I fit best with dogs who need minimal attention. I care for them just as if they are my very own four legged family! I’ve had many many dogs throughout my life and they are on my top five list of things I love in life!

About: I’m a personal owner of 1 dog and 2 ferrets, though I’ve been raised around dogs my whole life, alongside exotic animals like reptiles and fish. I’m actively in college so I’m looking for alternatives to spend my time and effort doing something I enjoy! So I’m free very often! If needed I am available to get on the military bases. Having my animals and others to trust my heart and instincts is my biggest goal. I’m 100% able to do very specific tasks you need me to do for your dog! Please, please, please, tell me where your amenities are to properly clean up or take care of your pets. I’m new to this job so I may not be as experienced, but I can’t clean up after a something with no knowledge to where the cleaners/bags are.

About: With 26 years of pet care experience, I have extensive knowledge and skills to ensure your pets receive the best care possible. Should something out of the ordinary occur, I possess the skills and training necessary to appropriately respond to any issue or situation. I enjoy and work well with both puppies and seniors. Retired from a successful career in Leadership Development, I have plenty of time to provide complete, thorough and loving care for your special friend(s). I can always be talked into another game of Chase & Return or Frisbee. Many pets greatly prefer remaining in their own familiar, comfortable and secure home surroundings. I enjoy taking care of them in this manner, being thoroughly present while making a minimal impact on your home and furnishings. I am a mature, dependable, and conscientious guest in your home. When taking care of your pets in your home, I follow the doctrine of “leave it better than you found it.”

About: I have had pets growing up and my entire life. I have grown up with dogs, lizards, birds, bunnies and even fish. There has ALWAYS been a dog in my house. My longest living pet was 19 and the youngest I’ve had is 6 months. Throughout my life, I have loved animals and find great joy in providing them love and care. I have dog sat for family and friends as well and just really find the love in taking care of animals. I work from home so my schedule overall is pretty flexible! I have a desktop to work from my apartment and a laptop to be able to work from anywhere. I have dog sat while bringing my laptop multiple times and finding the balance between work and play is second nature at this point. When dog sitting I have spent weeks away or even just a night if needed. Whatever you need, we can make it work and figure out something that works for you, me, and your sweet baby! I understand animals can be incredibly smart and work their way out of things or even get into things if they shouldn’t! If your furbaby likes to get into trouble, I am very attentive and can keep them out. For any specifics (my mom used to have a pig that could open the refrigerator!), let me know and I’ll keep an even closer eye out.

About: I've been around animals my whole life, advocating for shelter animals for many years. I have dog sat for a number of family and friends (and their friends) for the past few years, just getting set up with a professional account. I raised livestock for the FFA in middle school and high school (training very stubborn pigs lol). In my free time i volunteer at the local animal shelter and take the dogs out on adventures in town on the weekends. I have fostered adult dogs and puppies. I just left my full-time corporate job to take some time off before i pursue my dream of cosmetology school in may. Therefore, I am very available for daily walks, overnight stays, doggy daycare during the day, etc. I actively monitor the dogs and their behavior hinting at what they may need. While walking dogs i am always on alert and on the look out for other dogs, reading body language and keeping distance.

“Autumn has been amazing. My dog is a rescue and a little rough around the edges and she was patient and ended up earning my dogs trust. Highly recommend.”

“Codi was great. This is the second time we’ve had her watch our dogs. We had some unexpected challenges with our dogs while we were away, and she was very communicative and took the extra care needed to make sure the dogs had everything they needed. We will definitely book her again!”

About: Hello, My name is Amanda and I started my pet care journey back in 2019. Since then, I have taken care of hundreds of pets of all shapes, sizes (even those 100lb+) & personality's; I currently work at a veterinary clinic full time as a Veterinary Technician and the now new Boarding Supervisor for our boarding facility. I have proudly been with my clinic through thick and thin for almost 5 years now upcoming this fall 2026. One thing about me, is I always remember my clients and their pets. You’re not just another face but a new member of the family! I will always strive to make sure no one is forgotten and that everyone is well taken care of and comfortable. I hope you, your pet and I can make a connection! I’m Currently working full time at my vet clinic M-F from 7:20am-5:30pm (I AM AVAILABLE THURSDAYS) the clinic does rotating weekend crews. We get a full months schedule so I will update my availability once the schedule is out! If you have specific instructions I will follow those step by step. Otherwise I make sure your pets are eating and drinking, make sure they potty, making sure pets are not ill or injured and at the end whatever time is left over will be playtime or cuddling! I’m also very big on cleanliness so before I leave a shift if theirs any messes I will do my best to make the area spotless!

“Ryleigh is great! She is always on time to walk my dog and also lets me know when she is on her way there. She responds quickly and is knowledgeable and attentive. Always includes pictures of my pup and genuinely cares about her. Highly recommend (:”

I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re apart. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work a professional schedule and have the flexibility to provide consistent care before and after work, including walks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of attention. When caring for pets in their own home, I strive to maintain their normal routine and environment to help them feel comfortable and secure. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and household routines. I respect my clients’ homes as if they were my own and make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship while their family is away. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind knowing their pets are happy and well cared for.

About: I give every pet personalized loving care whether it’s playful puppies, senior dogs who need a gentle routine or any temperament in between. I’m reliable, safety, focused, and comfortable giving medication. I keep owners updated, treat every home with respect and always bring real patience, warmth, and love to every visit! Because I work remotely pet care fits right into my routine. I can stay in the owners home or schedule my day around walks feedings, playtime, and check-in making sure each pet gets consistent attention and love. At my home I have a doggie door and a fenced in backyard. At client‘s home I follow any house rules, cleanup as needed and make sure everything is secure before I leave. When staying overnight I’m mindful about keeping the space need locking doors and treating the home like it’s my own.

“Tara is great! From the second I let her take “my child” I knew I was in good hands. She obviously loves dogs! Tara was communicative, punctual and left helpful notes and sweet pics of my girl. I would definitely use Tara again!”

About: I've had a strong passion for animals since I was very young, and I've spent years caring for them whenever I had the chance. Visiting zoos, animal shelters, and spending time with friends' pets eventually led me to start pet sitting and dog walking at a young age as well. Through over a decade of hands on experience, personal research, and owning reptiles, cats, and other small species, I've learned how to care for a wide variety of animals, including cats, dogs, birds, reptiles, rodents, fish, and even insects and snails. I combine compassion, patience, and responsibility to make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for according to their individual needs. I’m especially knowledgeable about cats and very familiar with canine body language. I also care for stray cats in my neighborhood, which has given me even more experience understanding animal behavior and building trust with shy or nervous pets. However, I’m committed to providing the same level of attentive care to every animal I work with. I’m comfortable with most ages, sizes, and species of pets, excluding bottle babies and giant dog breeds. Please let me know in advance if your pet has severe aggression, medical concerns, or special care instructions, and provide emergency contact information for a veterinarian or trusted person if needed. I can help with everything from walks and playtime to feeding, cleanup, litter boxes, and poop scooping. I understand that pet care can sometimes be messy, and I’m patient with accident-prone animals. Animal care is something I genuinely care deeply about, and I always strive to provide an experience that leaves both pets and owners feeling happy, comfortable, and confident. I look forward to meeting you and your animals! I’m currently available to provide care any day of the week, including holidays unless stated otherwise, just ask! While I prefer not to stay overnight with new clients right away, I’m happy to adapt by arriving early or staying later if needed. For regular clients and pets I’ve become more familiar with, we may be able to arrange longer consecutive stays or overnight care. I’m also pretty flexible and can usually adapt to last minute requests, so feel free to reach out and we can try to work something out. I’m always happy to provide updates and photos during visits if you’d like them as well. I will give my full attention and care to both your pet and your home. I’m willing to go above and beyond to keep your pet comfortable and your home clean and mess-free. I keep food dishes clean, toys picked up, and always make sure all doors, windows, and gates are properly locked and secured before leaving your home. I can carefully follow any special instructions provided, and I will care for your animals with the same love, patience, and attention to detail that I give to my own.

“Alexis was wonderful! She came to the house on short notice and took the pups for a walk. Gloomy weather they were restless, I’m so thankful!”

“Samantha did an excellent job walking and feeding my dog while I was away. My dog has a sensitive stomach and unfortunately she had two accidents. Samantha helped clean up the accidents and gave my dog probiotics to help her stomach. I would highly recommend Samantha she was highly reliable and provided frequent updates.”

About: I have been caring for animals since I was 10 years old, and I truly adore both cats and dogs. I currently have two spoiled fur babies of my own, Whiskey and Bandit, who mean the world to me! Because my pets have medical needs, I’m very experienced with administering medications, monitoring special diets, and providing attentive care for pets who need a little extra support. I believe every pet deserves a clean, comfortable, and loving environment. Whether I’m caring for cats or dogs, tidy spaces, plenty of exercise and playtime, patience, and lots of affection are always my priority. From energetic puppies to shy cats and senior pets, I will treat your furry family members like they are my own while you’re away. I work remotely and have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to provide attentive care for your pets throughout the day. I’m confident we can find a schedule that works perfectly for both you and your pet’s needs. While I’m unable to host pets in my own home, I’m more than happy to care for your pet in the comfort of theirs. I will carefully follow all instructions and routines to ensure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I’ll treat your pet like my own while keeping their schedule and environment as consistent and stress-free as possible.
