“Shawn was a godsend. I had meetings back to back all day and was not able to take Darby out on his usual 2 walks. I found Shawn at the last minute (the day before) and he was able to come over, meet Darby and take him on a mile walk. This was a huge help to me. I will definitely be using Shawn in the future.”
“Katherine was fantastic! Helped with my last minute request for my pup, who had a great time on her daily walks. Katherine was communicative and kind, going above and beyond to care for my pup while I was working long hours.”
About: I’ve taken care of family and roommates’ pets and am now branching out. I grew up with dogs, fish, rabbits, rats and frogs so I am no stranger to animals. I’m currently in between jobs and absolutely love animals so figured this would be a great fit. Since I am in between jobs, I have a lot of flexibility to care for your pets! I am friendly and attentive to your pets needs. I create space for every single pet to warm up to me naturally, and love to learn its personality.
About: I have watched all of my friends dogs. All of them have continued to ask me to watch there dogs. I started dog sitting about a three years ago! I will ensure your dog is well taken care of with plenty of entertainment and attention! I work about 2 to 4 hours a day. I love taking dogs on runs after work or just simply a walk. I have a very flexible work schedule so my personnel schedule can be adjust to fit your pets needs! I will work on training your dog so they don’t forget what you have started with them. I have a safe environment for your dog. They will have access to the entire home. I will take them to a dog park if they do well there or a big empty field to just run around in.
“Fabiana was AMAZING with my Lu!!! He is a bit finicky so I was worried that he wouldn’t walk well with someone else, but she did a great job taking care of him and he looked forward to seeing her every day 😁”
About: From a young age, I've been passionate about caring for animals. As a 10-year-old, I would spend my earnings on rescuing and caring for dogs and other animals at my home. My love for animals drives me to go the extra mile, and I promise to provide the same level of care and dedication that you would for your own pets. I use to work full-time as a paralegal, but I have decided to take a break from the corporate world. I will be on time and spend every single second paying attention to your loved pets. If you have a fencing yard, I can take them in the back and spend all the time with them there or if you prefer I also do dog walking.
About: I had previously stated in my profile, that I was called to animals since I was a little girl. I remember walking home from school and would gain the trust of a stray cat that followed me home. Animals of all species have been a staple in my childhood and adult home until this day. I am also a registered nurse whose specialty landed in senior care. I have a natural ability to connect with the elderly and understand the stage of life they are in and the psychology that comes with it. Through this, I have also been able to be a good advocate for my patients and their families. My husband and I currently have a senior cat that has cognitive decline that I was able to pick up on, as well as my suspicion of kidney disease. Through this knowledge, and with our vet, she is thriving now through patience and dedication.to her needs. This is not easy for us. But, she is our little girl. My nursing has also been an huge benefit to better serve and care for all of my little guys. Hamsters in my home have suffered all diseases from a stroke, cancer, kidney failure and heart failure etc. All of which received the best medical attention and best dedicated care until they crossed the rainbow bridge. I am grateful to see how my nursing has also enhanced my ability to better serve animals as well as humans. My heart is full of unconditional love and kindness. I am grateful to be of service to any walk of life. I have currently obtained a new nursing position within my expertise in senior care, allowing me the flexibility to work remote, since my journey moving forward needs to stay dedicated to serving animals, including my own. Our motto in this house is "these are our children, regardless of the size, they will be given the best life they deserve". We do have a fully fenced yard, though we currently do not have a dog. Any animal that comes in our care, will be treated the same as we treat our own. The cats, the chinchillas, and the hamsters can mingle amongst each other in our house. They actually each have a food bowl for each species side by side in the kitchen. The house is clean, the cages are clean and the environment is safe for any animal that enters. Time, dedication, discipline, love and patience exists in this house.
About: I've taken care of cats my whole life as we always had cats in my household growing up. We added a dog to our family when I was 15. That is when I started learning about dog training and care. I have since helped train my Dad's two dogs and constantly took them for walks when I visited. I also dog sit them as well as other family pets. I recently moved to Virginia as my partner is in the Navy and got stationed out here. I currently work part-time from home. So, I am available most weekdays and I have some availability on weekends. With my flexible schedule I have plenty of time to take your dog on walks, do drop-in visits for cats and dogs, and dog sit. I currently do not have any pets in my home. While taking care of your pets I will be able to do drop-in visits while you are away, take your dogs on walks, as well as dog or cat sit in your home.
About: Hi! I am Brianna. I currently live in a condo near big fields for your dog to enjoy running and playing.I grew up around dogs mostly all of my life and now I have 1 of my own (Luke) who I love with all of my heart. I have quite some experience dealing with all kinds of dogs. I am available and have flexible hours throughout the day, so that I can ensure that your babies are receiving all of the love, care and attention that they will need while you are away. I am home all day so I have nothing but free time so that your fur baby will have all of my attention and is able to go outside at anytime I have plenty of outdoor space where your pet will be able to run, have fun and potty. I am also very flexible with accommodating any of your pets needs.
About: I’ve cared for animals my whole life—growing up with pets, working on farms, and currently helping friends with their pets. I truly love all animals. We’re home and available this summer! I’m a stay-at-home mom, and my daughter who is 13 is out of school and ready to help as well! In home care- we have a fenced yard, pool, and lots of pet toys! We also can take care of your pet at your home for pet comfort! We do daily walks and check ins We watch all kinds of pets, cats, dogs, bunnies, reptiles.
About: I have cared for, trained, and been around dogs most of my life and we have 3 dogs currently. There is no dog that I can’t handle - you can rest assured that your dog is in good hands in our care. Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions or just to get to know me. I look forward to hearing from you! We do work full-time jobs but a lot of that is remote and very flexible to do check ins or take your dog for a walk. Gaining the trust of your dog is our number one priority so that they are always at ease. Beyond that, we follow any guidance you provide to be sure all of your dog’s needs are met.
About: I have had pets all of my life! I worked with exotic and farm animals, and specially trained dogs as well and have cared for kittens to senior cats and puppies to senior dogs of many different sizes and breeds. I am available and excited to care for your pets most weekdays, as well as some afternoons and evenings! I look forward to how I can help! At this time, because my pup isn’t willing to share her space, I will only be able to care for your pets in your home/outside of your home for walks.
