“My senior dog was very well taken care of during our absence. I loved receiving daily updates and pictures so I wouldn’t miss him so much! Thank you for taking care of him while we were gone.”

About: I am a dog mom of two! They are my world, but I have never met an animal I didn’t like!! Small or big they are all special and need love!! I work as a caregiver in the evenings Monday through Thursday 3:30-10 and Friday 3:30-8. So I am available all other hours of the day. I also have the flexibility if I must to make a quick stop by during working hours if I need. I have a fenced in yard and two dogs who love making new friends and having play dates! I believe that the house is there home and they are welcome to sleep and lay on the couches and beds!!

About: I have been pet sitting for two years now with the help of my mother's pet grooming/sitting business, and now I wish to start my own and provide quality pet care to dogs and cats of all sizes, breeds, and ages. Since I have graduated from highschool, and will be taking a gap year before going to college, I will have plenty of time to care for your doggos and cats, being available anytime you need me and on any day of the week! I am a very adaptive individual, and will follow any instructions you leave for me concerning your fur babies, and I will ensure your pets receive the utmost care and attention that my pets at home receive daily!
About: We are experienced in taking care of small and large breed dogs. We love to walk them and care for each client’s pet as our own. We have been a pet owners for over 20 yrs and also help take care or family and friends pets when they are gone. We love caring for dogs. My wife works weekends and I work through the week. Someone is home all day. We are gone for church and kids activities in the evenings and Sunday morning. We have 4 kids ages 7-17 that love helping with the dogs. Your dog will get plenty of attention while boarding here. We have a small puggle who is 5. My daily personal pet care routine consists of 2 meals and water daily. 1-2 mile walks. Toby gets a treat after he goes potty. We let him out in the fenced backyard every 3-4 hours or when he goes to the door. He also likes to lay on the deck and sunbath. We love and treat each client’s pet as it was our very own. We love to care for dogs and have a special connection with them. We are patient and kind and take time to learn each pets routine and behaviors. We can’t wait to get to know your dog and care for them!
“Aubrey was great! She took great care of my dog! She is very nice, friendly, and kind! She was great at communicating and always left a detailed description of the walk with lots of pictures!”

About: Hi! I'm Audrey! I'm currently a stay at home mama, so my schedule is very flexible! I am happy to do a meet and greet with you & your fur baby before we get scheduled, please reach out if you have questions! I can't wait to talk to you! More about me: I grew up in a home with dogs from the time that I was a baby - I can't ever remember a time in my life where I didn't have a fur baby. I was first rescued by my dog, Kiah, when I was 13 years old. I currently have 2 dogs and 3 dog friendly cats (though these kitties stay in separate rooms away from the areas your animals would be). If you have an animal that needs shots, medications, or any special needs - I'm the girl for you; I have personal experience with my own animals that have needed shots, medicines, etc. For dog walking: I'm a stay at home mama so I have plenty of time during the day to stop in to see your baby! I can do anywhere between 15 minute walks to 60 minute walks. For doggy daycare or boarding: Still a stay at home mom - ha! This means I am home most of the day unless I am taking other pups on walks. My husband also works from home so there is someone here a majority of the time, unless we are going grocery shopping that weekend! We also have three dog loving teens! Our dogs spend a lot of time playing in the backyard and resting snuggled up on our couches. For dog walking: I love being outside - so spending quality time with your baby on a walk is important to me! I always make sure to have water accessible for your baby before/after a walk as well. On our walks, I'll make sure to have bags to pick up any bathroom needs as well! For doggy daycare & boarding: We are home a majority of the time, when we aren't home we always prefer to crate dogs that are crate trained that way they are able to stay safe! If they aren't, we are happy to work with you & see what you do with your baby when you're gone. We never leave two dogs that aren't familiar with each other alone in the same room either!
About: I’ve worked at a doggy daycare for about 2 years now. So I have experience with all breeds and I know how to handle them. I’ve volunteered multiple times at my local animal shelter along with giving dogs medicine including insulin shots! Other than that I’ve grown up with many dogs and cats. So I love animals. I’m currently in college with a major in agriculture hoping to be a vet in the future! I’m currently on summer break so I have a lot of free time at the moment! I can house sit, drop in visits, and do walks in the evening or at whatever time on my days off! I can only care for your pets in your home since I live in a dorm! I will follow all rules given to me to take care of your fur baby!
About: I’ve been training my dogs as well as my friends dogs. I’m the type of person who goes to a gathering and if there is a dog I hang with the dog. I work 3-4 hours a day in the from 9-1 so I have plenty of availability. I am free most weekends as well as most evenings. I have two other dogs who have are great with other dogs and have helped me train other dogs as well. I have fostered for the local Humane Society in the past as well. I love playing with my dogs and taking them for walks.
About: A college student who loves animals looking for extra money over the summer! Hello! My name is Allie! I have grown up with both dogs and cats and don’t know any other way than how to take care of them! I have two dogs and have been left alone with them in the house since I was about 14 (currently 18). So I have come to understand how to take care of them overnight. My dogs can be aggressive and bark loudly which I have come to learn how to deal with and am not scared of. I have also seen the crossover between cats and dogs and am able to manage that as well. Last summer I dog sat for a family for about a period of 10 days. And have been on and off overnight watching and walking him for about a month now! I am currently a freshman in college looking for a way to make some summer money and currently have a completely free schedule other than some babysitting jobs! I have a fenced in yard with an electric fence. I walk my dogs at least once every day which I love to do. They eat and drink when they want to as they are trained to do so but also understand if your dog runs on a schedule. We use a dog door but also am able to tell when dog needs to go in/out and keep them on that schedule as well!

About: I've taken care of both dogs and cats for many years. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to feed, walk, play with, and care for their pets while they’re away. I understand that every animal has a different personality and routine, so I always try to make them feel comfortable and safe. I’m patient, attentive, and happy to follow any instructions, whether it’s caring for energetic dogs, shy cats, or pets that just need extra love and attention. I work online a few hours a day with a flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time to care for pets and give them attention throughout the day. I can easily adjust my routine for walks, feeding times, playtime, or check-ins. I’m usually available on weekdays and I also have availability on weekends depending on the booking. Your pet’s safety and comfort are very important to me. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully and try to keep pets on their normal routine so they feel relaxed and secure. I pay close attention to their behavior, making sure they have enough exercise, playtime, and affection. I’m also happy to send regular updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat the space with respect and make sure everything stays clean, safe, and calm for your pet.

About: I grew up with dogs. As an adult rescued a dog, worked w rescues for over 10 yrs. Fostered rescues, worked at animal shelter. My own dogs I show and personal service train for me.

“Lucy does a great job!! She’s taken my dog for multiple walks. Always sends the cutest photos! Does a great job with communication and always remembers to lock up when she leaves. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve helped take care of 2 adopted dogs. I loved taking them to the dog park and walking them! I want to help others take care of their dog/s. I’m currently a full time right now at UKHC. I plan on walking dogs on the days I’m off which varies, but the time on my days off for dog walks is wide open. While dog walking I will make sure the path we are walking is familiar and safe. Bringing water and treats for the dog is a must, as well as cleaning up after the dog.
