About: I’ve had many years of experience in taking care of my own & family/friend dogs all throughout my child & adulthood! I’ve taken care of the biggest (100lbs!) pups to the smallest kitty cats and I am more than comfortable with animals of all ages! I just want to help in any way I can while getting some puppy love in the meantime! I am currently a full-time medical student so my schedule can be very flexible! I am available most days of the week and am open to varying hours as well. Please don’t hesitate to reach out & help out a poor student 🥲 I am comfortable administering medication, walking, bathing, playing, and just about any other service your furry friend might need! My animals are fed on a timed schedule and I make sure to dedicate time out of the day just for play.

About: Have experience with a wide variety of pets and farm animals. We have owned our own family furiends varying from guinea pigs to dog and cats. Until we moved to the city, our small hobby farm had everything from horses and cows to poultry and goats. I have a wide variety of time available to take care of our special family. I am highly organized and can take on a wide variety of clients seamlessly so that you feel as if you are the only client. I would care for your pets as you direct. We can take walks, play, or simply take care of the bare necessities. Your requests decide how each visit goes.

“My dog is fearful of any new people and Lorraine was so patient with him! She knew just what to do and is truly a dog lover. It is such a relief to know we have someone willing to work at our pups pace and comfort level.”

About: I grew up on a farm and therefore I have been taking care of many different animals including dogs since I was a little kid. I am currently available starting October 19 from 6am-9pm Mon-Friday. However, this is a tentative schedule and I am willing to make accommodations if possible regarding my availability. I will be leasing a room from a couple who love dogs and have one if there own. Backyard is fenced in and decent in size.

“Courtney is the best! She was so kind and patient with my dog, who can be a little bit scared of new people. She worked so well with my dog and found what worked best for him. Will definitely be rebooking with her!”

About: I've had the joy of having dogs and cats in my life for as long as I can remember, and over the years, I've also gained experience taking care of birds, bunnies, and chickens. As a retired couple, we're home all the time and have a spacious, half-acre fenced yard where your pets will feel safe and comfortable. With our flexible schedule, we're able to offer both boarding and daycare services, and we promise to treat your pets like they're part of our family. Whether it's cuddling with our dogs and cats or caring for other animals, we're always ready to provide the love and attention your pets deserve. Pet care is an important part of my daily routine and something I genuinely enjoy. I organize my schedule around the pets I care for to ensure they receive plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and rest. Since I only accept a maximum of 3 pets at a time for boarding or daycare, I’m able to give each one the personalized care they deserve. This also helps me create a calm and safe environment, especially for smaller dogs, as it prevents them from feeling overwhelmed or at risk around larger or more energetic pets. Safety, trust, and a welcoming environment are at the core of how we care for pets in our home. Our spacious, half-acre fenced yard ensures your pets have a secure and safe space to play, explore, and relax. We take great pride in creating a calm, loving atmosphere where pets feel at ease. As a retired couple, we're home all the time, which means your pet will never be left alone for long periods. With our experience caring for a variety of animals, we focus on building trust and making sure each pet is comfortable, happy, and well-looked after. You can rest assured knowing that we treat your pets like they are our own, offering a safe, caring environment while they’re in our care.

“Colleen was super sweet and very dog savy. She took great care of my baby! I would highly recommend her for anyone to use as she is a very trust worthy and sweet doggy care giver!”

About: I grew up around many breeds of dogs and cats of all ages and special needs. My dad owned a veterinary practice and practiced veterinary medicine for 30+ years where I have gained much of my animal care knowledge. I’ve trained 5 of my own dogs since they were puppies all with varying personalities and temperaments. I have also taken care of many cats. When I was younger we used to have 3 dogs and 3 cats all at one time. I can administer medication both orally and by injection with additional experience in detecting illness/injuries. My love for animals has been a huge part of my life and I greatly enjoy loving and taking care of them. Your pet would be in excellent hands with me. I am currently unemployed and have lots of availability for multiple check ins, feeding, letting out, loving pets, hanging out, playtime and walks all day every day! I am willing to do whatever your pet needs whether that’s just hanging out around them, playing, cuddling, walking, feeding, letting them out and keeping them safe!

“Jeani was amazing! I have a senior dog and she was well taken care of. I needed to stay overnight in Tampa and Jeani walked her as late as she could and as early as she could the next day! I will only use Jeani.”

Pet care if it’s naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I already prioritize responsibility, consistency, and time management I make time for each day for movement fresh air and structured activities which lines well with walking, feeding and caring for my pets.

About: like they’re part of my own family. I’m great with puppies (potty routines, basic training, lots of energy!) and gentle with senior pets, making sure they’re comfortable, calm, and well cared for. I’m reliable, communicative, and always focused on keeping pets happy and safe while you’re away. Im home full time and looking for a temporary play mate.

About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 15 years. I speak fluent Spanish! I’ve raised my dog Zoso since I was 14, she is now almost 16 years old herself and I also have two cats who are young, orange, and friendly, and I own horses, so I’m experienced with pets of all sizes and personalities. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. I am an expert on giving medication! What sets me apart is my reliability, genuine love for animals, and the peace of mind I give owners knowing their pets are safe, comfortable, and happy. I spend most of the time at home so they will get all my attention! I currently work part-time from home, which gives me plenty of time and flexibility to care for pets during the week and weekends. I’m available for walks, drop ins, and boarding. I love spending time playing with animals, giving them attention, and making sure they feel comfortable while their owners are away. I provide a safe and comfortable environment where pets are treated like my own. I have a private yard and nearby trails that I walk daily, especially in the cooler evenings, and I’d love to bring your dog along for exercise and fresh air. I also share my home with a very sweet, senior dog who is gentle, low energy, and friendly with other animals. She usually keeps to herself, but offers calm company. Most importantly, I always follow the owner’s instructions closely to make sure every pet feels secure, comfortable, and well cared for!
