I am working part-time, so I have plenty of time to hang out and help with pets! Most weekdays/weekends, I am free for your pet needs. I am good at working with both cats and dogs of any size. Just let me know if there is anything specific I need to do!

Alexis is the best and worked really hard to make Walter feel comfortable, I will definitely be using her again. Let me tell you a story. One morning, Alexis was checking on my dog. She accidentally locked herself out of my house. Bummer, right? I was really mad for a while. Not Alexis' fault, since I thought my roommate wasn't going to be home but he actually was and locked her out without realizing it. Anyway, instead of leaving my dog in the yard and leaving, she stayed with my dog until I came home from camping that afternoon, gave him water, walked him extra, and kept him from freaking out. She really treated my dog like her own.

Our first visit & Lauren was phenomenal with my fur babies. She was patient and let my dog take the lead on their walk. She refilled water dishes, pre-treated a mess that was left by my family from earlier in the day. She is very respectful of my home and caring to my dogs. I have found my go to sitter/walker for my dogs.

About: For my first birthday, my parents' landlord gave them a puppy to give to me as a present. Since then, I've rarely been without at least one dog or cat companion. I've cared for dozens of pets for friends and family over the years: dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, and even the occasional reptile. I'm ready to give your pet the care and attention they deserve! I’m retired, so I have plenty of time to devote to your pet! I’m available both weekdays and weekends. Morning, afternoon, or evening, whatever works best for you and your pet! I have tons of experience with dogs and cats and can follow any directions and honor any requests you have so that you can feel certain your pet is getting safe, loving, and quality care.

About: I love working with pets. My parents have two dogs that I love bringing on walks. They are fun to play with and give attention too. We have also had different dogs when I was growing up it is important to know each pet has a different personality. We have also had cats that are completely different from dogs. I enjoy playing with them with toys and petting them. I also have experience with Guinea pigs. I have had one for over two years and I know how to take care of them. Let me know if I am the right fit to watch your dog, cat, or other animal. Thank you for reading my profile to consider me for watching your awesome and great pets. I love working with animals and I include them in my daily routine. They need do get there exercise, play time, attention and feed/ treats. I would rather take care of them in you home because the pets feel more comfortable when they know where they are. I love to keep them happy

Jessica did an amazing job cat sitting for me! I was gone for a week and she went every day to give my kitty lots of love (and of course food and such). Rather than swinging by to fill his bowl and then leave she always made sure to stick around for a bit to play with Clyde, which is so appreciated during long trips away. She was super responsive by text and sent daily pics and updates. Highest recommendation! Will def hire Jessica to watch Clyde in the future.

About: Growing up in a house of animals, and having a small zoo of my own (2 dogs and 2 cats), I have a lot of experience taking care of animals. I have dog and cat sat for friends for years. I am currently available for Drop ins and Walks. I try to spend a bare minimum of 15 minutes with any drop in to make sure they get all the attention that they need. As the owner of a 15 lb dog and a 80 lb dog, I understand that all Walks aren't created equal. My Walks always vary based off of the needs of the dog. I am also an avid cat lover. I am more than happy to stop by and feed, clean the litter box, and snuggle/play with your feline friends. Currently I work full time on the West side of the cities, but I have Sundays and Mondays off to help with your animal needs. My hope is to expand my availability over time. My current weekend lines up with some weekdays. I spend most of those days out and about, so I'd love to check in on some cute animal while I am at it! Slow and steady is always best. I am a believer in letting animals come to you. I have experience with a kennel trained and unkennel trained dogs. As the owner of a 15 lb dog and a 80 lb dog, I am experienced in walking all sizes of dogs.

Elyse is awesome!! Her communication is top notch, and I love coming home to happy pups. I appreciate that she took the time to come over the night before her first visit to meet my dogs and get the run down of everything.

Ingrid completed 3 drop in visits for my old kitty cat named Phantom. She sent me detailed updates and photos everyday. Phantom has an issue with going potty outside the box and Ingrid replaced the per pads, cleaned up a kitty mess in the kitchen and I came home to a clean litter box. I would highly recommend Ingrid!
