3. Natasha N.
About: I have always enjoyed spending my time with animals. I got my first dog when I was in elementary school - sadly he recently passed away - but since coming to college I have been missing my sweet fur baby. Being able to play with and care for someone else's pet while also earning extra cash would be an ideal job experience for me. Getting a new pet really isn’t an option for me right now. With all the free time on my hands, and I would love to get the chance to spend it walking and playing with your fur babies! In the past, I have dog sat for other friends and family and I really enjoyed it and having the extra company is always a plus!

13. Anna G.
About: Hi, I'm Anna, a dedicated pet lover with the flexibility to offer dog walking, sitting, and pet care services throughout the week, thanks to my work-from-home schedule. Whether it's weekdays or weekends, I'm here to ensure your furry friend gets the attention and exercise they need! Happy fall! I live on Lake Michigan so taking dogs to the beach has always been my favorite activity. While I work from home, I'm able to do drop-in dog visits and dog walks in the Michigan City/Long Beach/New Buffalo area. I grew up around German shepherds/collie mixes, so loving on big dogs is my thing, especially on long walks and post-walk snuggling on the couch on those lazy days. I no longer have animals and hope to one day adopt a dog when I'm ready, but for now, I really enjoy being around all types of dog breeds - big and small! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. Working from home gives me the flexibility to walk, sit, and care for pets throughout the day, ensuring they get the love and attention they need every day. I provide personalized care tailored to each pet's needs. In my home, pets enjoy a safe, loving environment with plenty of playtime and attention. When caring for pets in my clients' homes, I ensure they stick to their routines and feel comfortable, happy, and well-cared for in their familiar surroundings.

16. Aaron J.
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life, so getting older & widening my love for animals into a job seemed so fitting. I really enjoy those outdoors walks & dog park visits I am able to get in. Not only do the animals need to burn off energy, but I do as well! I currently am working a part-time hostess job at Casey’s in New Buffalo while I do only college classes at the same time, but still have plenty of hours in the day to attend to your fur babies! I am extremely flexible to any needs. I prefer watching the fur babies at the clients home because the pets are more comfortable there & can do their daily routines there. I would rather adjust myself than to have them adjust!
