About: Hi, I’m Rocio! A lifelong dog lover with experience raising many dogs, including puppies. I’ll treat your pup like family by providing exercise, care, and affection when your day gets busy. Your dog is in good hands! I have a flexible schedule that allows me plenty of time to take care of your pets before, during, and after normal work hours. Busy days are common; put your mind at ease by knowing your loved one is in safe hands, getting the exercise and care they need. Your pet will be cared for in a safe and respectful environment. I understand that every dog has a unique personality, so I’ll always interact with them at their comfort level. If your fur baby enjoys their space, I’ll respect that. If they’re looking for extra affection, I’m always happy to provide plenty of cuddles.
About: I have taken care of three pets of mine, one being a blind rescue dog, a senior dog with diabetes, and visual impairment, and a tabby cat. I can effectively administer insulin to diabetic dogs if needed during check ins. I am patient when walking or guiding visually impaired and senior pets. I am a college student who is currently on break. As of now I have open availability to walk or do check ins with your pet any day of the week, however my availability on Tuesdays is limited. I can proactively provide updates of check ins, and walks through messaging, and photos. During visits I am committed to providing attention and supervision to your pet. I will always maintain situational awareness, and a secure leash while on walks with your pet to ensure their safety.
About: I’ve lived with dogs and cats my entire life. I currently have one dog, and three cats at the moment. I love how they show their love and how they can really brighten up our days. I work at a school as an instructional assistant. So the pet care will have to be before and after work. I have weekends off. I care for my pets at home by walking my dog, playing outside with my dog, playing inside with my cats and their toys, they love the laser toy. I feed my animals morning and night and sometimes they get an afternoon snack. I love to relax with them on the couch while watching TV. I also allow them on my bed when it’s time to go to sleep.
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was a teenager and now I have 3 cats of my own! Occasionally I'll also take care of my friend’s pets or visit animal shelters. Love caring for all animals :) I am currently working 3 days a week in office and on my wfh days or weekends, I am able to help out with your pets! Every animal has different habits that need special care and attention. I will follow your instructions if you have a certain preference or method of care!
“Allen has been great already! We have a 7 mo. Old Doberman we set up for weekly walks and he’s already enjoying the time they spend together. His responses are quick and professional and he’s very easy to talk to and understands what our boy needs. We can’t wait to keep up this for the future!”
“Julio is great with dogs, as soon as my pitt saw him he liked him and that put me at ease since I will be traveling for a week. He made me feel very comfortable and my dog, I don't think I could've find a better person for this job!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I can remember, I’ve never lived without a pet so friends and family have relied on me to feed, walk, bathe and care for their pets. Dogs are my spirit animal and I couldn’t think of a better way to spend my free time than being around them :) I have open availability. I’m a professional dancer so any time I’m not in rehearsals or classes, I want to spend it with animals. I will not be able to provide pet care at my home due to the fact that my house is a strict no pet house. In your home I will return it better than I found it and will care for your space and your animal well.

About: Hi! I’m Taryn! I’m a college student who genuinely LOVES animals, and I would be so excited to take care of your fur babies while you’re away! I know how stressful it can be leaving your pet with someone you don’t know, so I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing they’re getting lots of attention, love, and care while you’re gone. ❤️ I’m very responsible, patient, and attentive, and I’m happy to follow whatever routine your pet is used to. I know every dog is different—some want to run around and play, some want a long walk and lots of sniffing, and some are happiest getting cuddles on the couch! 🐕 What does a visit with me look like? For walks: I don’t just rush your dog around the block! I’ll let them take their time sniffing, exploring, and getting their energy out while keeping them safe. I’ll always make sure they have water afterward, and I’m happy to send you pictures along the way so you can see what your pup is up to! For potty breaks: I’ll take your dog outside and stay with them rather than simply opening the door and leaving them. I’ll make sure they actually potty, give them plenty of time, and clean up afterward. If your pup needs multiple potty breaks throughout the day, I’m happy to follow their normal schedule. For playtime: Whether your dog loves playing fetch, tug-of-war, chasing toys, or just getting some attention, I’ll make sure they get plenty of interaction and exercise. 🎾 For puppies: I know puppies need extra patience and supervision! I’m happy to help with frequent potty breaks, playtime, crate routines, and keeping them entertained while you’re away. 🐾 For the cuddly ones: If your pet would rather spend the whole visit getting belly rubs and cuddling, I’m perfectly happy with that too. Most importantly, I’ll treat your pet like they’re my own. I’ll pay attention to their behavior, follow your instructions carefully, and keep you updated so you never have to wonder how they’re doing. You enjoy your time away and I’ll make sure your pet is happy, loved, and well taken care of while you’re gone! I’d love to meet you and your pet and hopefully become your go-to sitter! I’m a college student with a flexible schedule. I only have two in-person classes and work three days a week for shorter shifts, so I have plenty of availability for pet care. I’m especially flexible with daytime visits and overnight stays, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s usual routine and schedule! I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet with someone new. I’ll treat your pets like my own and make their safety and happiness my top priority. I’m attentive to their needs, will carefully follow any instructions you leave, and will make sure they get plenty of exercise, playtime, attention, and cuddles. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away! 🐾❤️
