About: Hi there! I’m a big animal lover and I would love to take care of your fur baby. I'm available weekdays as well as weekends. I live 5 minutes away from a park so going for little run or a nice walk will always be something fun to do. If you plan on leaving your dog with me more than one night I'm totally comfortable with that. We have a nice fenced in play area at the apartment complex for the dogs to run around. I am willing to take your dog to get groomed or bathed if your schedule is too busy. I'm your go to girl. If your dog is ready for some adventure then let's get this party started. Thank you. I work mornings full time from 7am-3pm. I’m free on Fridays and every other weekend. I always go home on my lunch break to check on my pets. My pets are allowed all over the house, they sleep in bed with me, and I let them on the couch as well. They are my roommates and have the same privileges as me lol

I work as an instructional assistant for an elementary school. I can care for animals before and after work as well as my lunch breaks.

About: I have a cat that I have been raising since June of 2024 since he was a little kitten. I love and cherish him and have learned a lot of patience over the past year while raising him. I also have a love for dogs and I have a little experience with them as well. I am a self-employed delivery driver, so I have a lot of free time, and I am flexible but right now I am only able to accept morning care for pets. I stick to routine and consistency when it comes to pets because that is what works best in most situations. If the pet has no structure in its life and its environment is full of chaos, then that leaves room for pet aggression and may cause the pet to be out of control. I also making sure to give them plenty of play time can reduce a lot of misbehavior and disobedience.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
