About: Hi! This is a joint account with my partner and myself. We cared for dogs of all breeds and sizes since we were young of age. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted us for years to walk, feed, bathe, and give loving attention to their pets. We are experienced with both energetic puppies and senior dogs who need a gentler approach, and we treat every pet as if they were my own. This is a joint account with me and my partner. We always have full availability and always are looking to take care of your pets! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow any specific routines or instructions you provide. I make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well looked after, whether that means sticking to feeding schedules, administering medications, or keeping their environment clean and comfortable. I always respect your home and your pet’s space.

About: I've raised and cared for several breeds of dogs, large and small for about 20 years. I am a true dog lover and I believe its important to connect with them. I am very attentive to their needs. Body rubs and ear scratches are unlimited. I have experience with special needs pups as well. I do have experience giving medications if needed. I once was a volunteer and foster parent with Yorkie 911 Rescue. I also have experience with very shy dogs and I have extreme patience. My home is quiet during most of the day for those pups who need total relaxation or for those senior pups who just prefers quiet. I also have experience grooming small dogs up to 15 pounds. Dog care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home and can provide consistent supervision throughout the day. I can structure my day around the dogs’ needs, including feeding, potty breaks, playtime, walks, rest periods, and plenty of attention. I am comfortable maintaining a regular schedule and making sure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I can also provide additional supervision and care throughout the week based on each dog’s individual needs and routine. My balcony is a clean, secure, and dog-friendly space where dogs can safely enjoy fresh air and supervised outdoor time. It includes a designated potty area, enclosed with strong netting with chicken wire. along with comfortable cots and lounging furniture where dogs can relax, have fresh air and sun bathe, The balcony is located directly outside my home office, where I work, allowing me to keep a close eye on the dogs throughout the day. Dogs are never left unattended on the balcony. I also have cameras throughout the apartment for additional monitoring and pet gates closing off forbidden areas. The space is kept clean, organized, and free of hazards, providing small/medium dogs with a comfortable and secure area to relax, play, and get some fresh air.

About: What sets me apart is over 10 years of hands-on experience dog sitting, along with a deep sense of responsibility and care. I truly love animals and bring that same energy to every pet I look after. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, including seniors who need gentle, attentive support. I also have experience caring for elderly people, including my own grandmother, which has taught me patience, empathy, and the importance of routines. Whether it’s administering medication, giving extra cuddles, or sticking to a strict schedule, I’m all in when it comes to compassionate care. It fits into my daily and weekly schedule because I’m a stay at home dad with a lot of time on my schedule that would enjoy the company of a fur friend around that can keep me busy!! When pets stay in my home, I treat them like part of the family. I make sure they have a cozy spot to relax, stick to their regular routine as much as possible, and give them plenty of love, attention, and playtime. I keep my space clean, safe, and calm so they can feel comfortable, whether they’re staying for a day or a whole week. My goal is to make it feel like a second home for them. Also when taking them out I have a fenced yard as well as a front gate so there’s no running away or escaping on my watch!

About: I have grown up around dogs my whole life and I absolutely love caring for them. I have not only cared for my own dogs but I have worked at a vet clinic where I got to care for dogs of all sizes, ages, and energy levels. I have experience in feeding, giving medicine, sick care, etc. I am available to provide pet care Thursdays Fridays Saturdays and Sundays for most of the day! I am available to drop in and give walks or stay with them and give them some company! I can ensure that your fur baby is feed, happy, and entertained while I am with them! I can just drop in or I can give them company and have some play time!

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the depth of experience and genuine love I bring to every pet I care for. I grew up caring for my family’s Labrador Retriever from puppyhood until his senior years at 13, giving me hands-on experience with everything from energetic puppy routines to the patience and attentiveness older dogs need. Now, I’ve transitioned into house sitting and dog walking to stay connected to that same joy and companionship. I treat every dog like my own—focused on their comfort, safety, and happiness. Pet care fits naturally into my schedule. I’m currently planning to go back to school, so I’m keeping my weekdays flexible for studying and personal commitments. That means weekends are the perfect time for me to spend quality time with pets. I love having dedicated, unrushed time to focus on walks, play, and companionship—so weekend pet care fits perfectly into my routine I focus on keeping their routine as familiar and comfortable as possible. I follow the feeding schedule you provide, make sure they get plenty of exercise and outdoor time, all while maintaining any training or house rules you’ve set. I give lots of attention, monitor their behavior, and send regular updates so you always know how they’re doing. I also have experience administering injections in the human medical field, so I am comfortable administering those trickier medications to your pets! My priority is making your pet feel safe, loved, and relaxed while you’re away—just as they would with you.

“Jordan was amazing with our kitty! Her communication is excellent, she provided frequent updates, and we knew that our cat was well looked after. Thank you Jordan!”
