“This is Attica, 3rd week walking Rocky, she’s really great with him. He looks forward to their walks. When he sees her coming up the steps, man he jumps up with pure excitement. That’s really a great feeling knowing he likes her so much. She’s a sweet quiet typing lady and great with dogs”

About: I’ve had dogs all my life and it seemed the family dogs always gravitated toward me. I can’t imagine life without them! I’ve been caring for other’s dogs ever since I got my drivers license. The first dog I watched for a family (a beautiful Alaskan husky) had diabetes and required diabetic shots twice a day. Even though it hurt to have to give him shots, I loved having the opportunity to care for dogs other than my own. Since then I’ve had the opportunity of being the go-to dog watcher for several families with several different dog (and cat) breeds. I will make every effort to give your dog the same care that I was able to give Skyler and the rest of the dogs I’ve had the great fortune of watching and taking care of. There’s not many things that give me more joy than spending time with dogs. I currently work from home Monday and Friday so in addition to the weekend, it opens up availability to be present for the doggie. I’m in the office Tuesday - Thursday but available for morning/evening. I have a fenced in backyard and ample space inside the house to make your dog comfortable. I can crate if needed, but also have rooms that can function as “dog” rooms for the periods when I need to leave the house. I have my own Belgian Malinois, who mostly does her own thing. :)

“Alyssa watches/walks my puppy Buddy when I’m at work! She does great, I trust her with my pup, and he loves her! She’s awesome and does an amazing job!”

About: I've been taking care of dogs almost my whole life, and cats for at least 10 years. I'm most experienced in taking care of bigger dogs, but can do smaller as well. For age, I've had puppies, seniors, and everything in-between. Neighbors, family, and friends have always enjoyed whenever I take care of their loved animals. I currently have a mostly open availability, especially on week days. I take care of mine, and my roommates pets on the daily, and would have plenty of time to come take care of yours too! I would not be able to board in my home, but I am more than willing to stay as long as needed in your home to give your pets the best care I possibly can. I would follow your instructions on your specific pets care routine, and ask any questions I have. As well as walks, I can play with your pets or give them space.

About: I grew up with dogs and cats, have fostered in the past, and continue to care for my friend’s pets while they are away. I am open to house-sit, drop in, or go on however long of a walk your best friend needs. I have a lot of experience taking care of pets in their own homes, making sure they are safe and comfortable. I have experience with different breeds and temperaments - cuddlers, partiers, grouches, and loungers all deserve love! I can’t wait to spend time with your best friend and give you peace of mind. I work full time, but work from home Mondays and Fridays. Currently I could do drop-ins and walks anytime Fridays through Mondays. For Tuesday through Thursday, I would only be available early morning and evening. I’m available any day for house sitting stays which includes overnight care in your home with evening and morning routines. We can discuss if midday drop-in or walk are needed on the days i’m in the office. Drop-ins include feeding, water refresh, play/potty time, and quick updates. Walks include a 30-minute walk at your dog’s usual pace, leash handling, water refill if needed, and notes to the owner. If your dog needs longer than 30 minutes, Incan also do a longer walk for an hour. I make a point to ensure pets are following their schedules and any training they are working on. I always make sure to double check any needs/wants with the owner, to make sure pets are at their most comfortable. Let me know how your pet thrives in their environment, the more details the better! I will keep you updated on anything you specifically ask, or of any questions I might have that will help me get to know your pet better.

About: I've been relied upon by neighbors for years to dog-sit, dog-walk, and pet-sit for cats as well. I'm a big lover of all animals and grew up with dogs, cats, and even chickens! I started caring for these animals at an early age, handling tasks such as feeding, scooping litter, picking up dog droppings, and cleaning the chicken coop. We have an old cat with kidney and heart problems ourselves who needs to be pilled and have a cream applied to his ear twice a day. I understand how our pets are, quite literally, additional family members to the household, and I recognize the importance of ensuring they are loved and cared for, just like all of us!!! I’m a huge fan of walking and this fits into my daily and weekly routine. I also love the social aspect of meeting new people and pets are ALWAYS the best way to meet new people! I can easily drive to your home to walk your dog in the your neighborhood. I’m gentle, friendly and love a big scratch on an animals bottom(if they are welcome to it of course!)

About: I have experience with a variety of breeds and sizes. I have interacted with not only plenty of dogs but cats and other animals as well! From super welcoming to anxious I can get along with almost any animal. I alternate working mornings and evenings from week to week, I am available for early morning care or later evening care depending on the week. Additionally I work every other weekend but always off early afternoon so I have a lot of flexibility on those days! If you have a busy schedule and need a daily walk or drop in I can usually accommodate that. A happy, healthy, and stress free pet is the ultimate goal! I will do whatever is needed to make sure that your pet is comfortable and well cared for during my time with them.

About: I have been pet sitting for friends and family for years and cannot wait to expand my horizons. I’m also specialized in behavior therapy for humans which could translate to some light pet training if desired. I am looking for some part time dog walking or pet sitting gigs while in between jobs. Whether we are getting our steps in or taking a sniff walk, I’m your girl for the job. I do not currently have any pets mostly due to living in an apartment and not having a yard. I am more than happy to play with your pups at their own home or walk them around their neighborhood.

About: I’ve always grown up with dogs. One of my favorite things ever is taking my golden doodle for a walk. My apartment doesn’t allow pets so I would love to take care of someone else’s pet - I miss mine!! I don’t have any committed work schedules. I am wanting to do rover part time while I find a full-time job! So I am very flexible. I live in River market and would love to take your dog on a walk with me down the river front! Or do home visits.

About: I have been a dog lover my whole life and an owner for 10 years. I absolutely adored our family dog and loved playing with him and taking him on long walks. My current work schedule, as a nurse working long shifts, does not allow me to provide the best possible home for my own dog but I would love to spend my free time taking care of yours! I enjoy living an active lifestyle, including long walks with my friends’ and neighbors’ dogs, spending time outdoors, and reading. On my days off I have a very flexible schedule and am willing to visit when it works best for your pets. I’d be happy to answer any questions you may have about my experience with pet care! I am available weekends and Wednesdays to care for your loved ones! I am also available some evenings after 6:00pm. If you have any questions about my availability please reach out! I will care for your pet in the best way for them. Please feel free to tell me their likes or dislikes. I prefer to take them on walks, but whatever your pet needs are I am willing to help!

About: I grew up with a lab/pitbull mix, and have lived with other big dogs. I get along with all puppies, and am down to lounge with them, walk them, or play! I am a remote worker, so I plan to walk dogs on my lunch break (approximately 12 PM - 1 PM). I can also check in on dogs and feed them as needed. I always make sure they have food and water, and feel safe in their environment. I’m not one to push a dog out of their comfort zone, but I will always approach your puppy with kindness and consideration.

About: I would love to spend time with your pup(s) and give you peace of mind while you are traveling, busy for the day or working. I know how important pets are to families and individuals so I will treat them like my own! I also have a Golden retriever who is great with any and all size dogs. She has truly never met a person or dog that she doesn’t like! I have a flexible schedule as I work remote so I can be available based your dogs schedule. Also I frequent dog parks to get my Golden’s energy out and would be happy to take your dog(s) as well. Please let me know if you have any additional questions! I love to go on walks in the morning/early evening and spend time cuddling on the couch. What ever your dog needs, I’m available to serve! I am searching for jobs so I am on my computer at home for 2-3 hours a day, perfect for nap time. I have a very pet friendly home so the more the merrier! There is a park across the street and designated dog stations for them to potty.

About: What sets me apart as an animal sitter is not only my deep love and compassion for animals but also my unique combination of skills and experience. I have a proven track record of successfully training puppies and providing dedicated senior care to older pets, ensuring their comfort, safety, and happiness. My background in puppy training equips me with the patience and expertise needed to establish positive behaviors and routines early on. This not only benefits the puppy but also provides peace of mind for pet owners. Additionally, my experience in senior pet care allows me to attentively address the unique needs of older animals, including administering medication, managing mobility challenges, and providing the gentle care and attention they deserve. Beyond specialized skills, I am known for my responsible and reliable approach. Pet owners can trust that I will adhere to any specific care instructions, maintain open communication, and create a fun and engaging environment for their furry companions. My commitment to maintaining a safe and nurturing space for animals, combined with my ability to adapt to individual needs, truly sets me apart in delivering exceptional care as an animal sitter. Pet care is an integral part of my daily and weekly routine, and I've structured my commitments to ensure that every pet under my care receives the attention, care, and love they deserve. Despite having a part-time job, I have established a well-balanced schedule that revolves around the needs of the pets. In the mornings, before heading to my part-time job, I dedicate quality time to feed, exercise, and engage with the animals. I understand the importance of regular exercise and play for pets, and I make it a priority to ensure they have stimulating activities to keep them mentally and physically active. During my lunch break, I always make a point to check in on the pets, whether it's a quick walk, playtime, or simply ensuring they have fresh water and a comfortable environment. This midday break allows me to provide them with some companionship and reassurance throughout the day. Upon returning from work, I allocate a significant portion of my evening to the pets. This involves feeding, longer walks, interactive play, and any specific care needs they might have, such as grooming or medication. I understand that pets thrive on consistency and routine, and I work diligently to maintain this routine to ensure their well-being. During the weekends, my schedule is more flexible, allowing me to dedicate extended periods of time to pet care. This is when I can engage in more elaborate activities, training sessions, and outings to provide enriching experiences for the animals. Incorporating pet care into my routine requires careful planning and commitment, but it's a responsibility I take seriously and wholeheartedly. I believe that every pet deserves personalized attention and care, and I am fully dedicated to providing them with the best possible care within the framework of my daily and weekly routine. When caring for pets, whether in my own home or at a client's residence, I am committed to providing a safe, comfortable, and nurturing environment that meets their unique needs. The specific care approach can vary depending on the service I am offering. Caring for Pets in My Own Home: If I am providing pet care in my own home, I make sure to create a welcoming and pet-friendly space. I ensure that there are designated areas for rest, play, and meals. Regular exercise and mental stimulation are key components of my routine, so I schedule daily walks, playtime, and interactive activities to keep pets engaged and happy. Additionally, I adhere to any dietary requirements and feeding schedules provided by the pet owner, and I maintain clear communication to keep them updated on their pet's well-being. Caring for Pets in a Client's Home: When offering pet care services in a client's home, my goal is to maintain a sense of familiarity and routine for the pet. I start by discussing the pet's daily routine, preferences, and any special needs with the owner. I strive to replicate their regular environment as closely as possible, ensuring that the pet feels comfortable and at ease. This includes following feeding schedules, walking routes, and playtime activities that the pet is accustomed to. In both scenarios, safety is paramount. I take precautions to pet-proof the environment to prevent accidents or incidents. I am diligent about administering any required medications and providing the appropriate care for pets with specific medical conditions or dietary restrictions. Regular communication with pet owners is a fundamental aspect of my approach, as I believe in keeping them informed about their pet's activities, behavior, and overall well-being. Ultimately, my pet care philosophy revolves around treating each animal as an individual and tailoring my services to cater to their unique personalities, needs, and preferences. Whether in my home or at a client's residence, I am dedicated to ensuring that every pet receives the love, attention, and care they deserve.
