“Gwendolyn went above and beyond to help us in a bind with our best boy! She gave him a good walk, refilled his bowl with fresh water and even gave him some snackies to hold him over until we got home. On top of that she spent time after the walk to love on him for a while! 10/10 and will be using her again!!”
About: I’ve fully cared for both cats and dogs and really enjoy spending time with animals. For cats, I’ve handled everything from feeding and litter box maintenance to socializing and keeping them active and comfortable. I’ve also cared for dogs by making sure they’re well-fed, taken on regular walks, and given plenty of attention and affection. Whether it’s playtime or basic care, I’m committed to making sure pets feel safe and loved. Pet care is part of my daily routine—I care for my two cats and previously helped with my roommate’s cat, handling feeding, cleaning, and playtime. I provide daily feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, cleaning and playtime, while ensuring a calm, safe, and comfortable environment tailored to each pet’s needs.
About: Hello, my name is Ayla. I have been taking care of a variety of pets my entire life. Whether that be my own, my families, or my neighbors. I started working in the pet industry when I was 17. I have worked at stores like Petco and Petsmart. I take a great interest in POSITIVE dog training, and grainfree dog food and treats. I believe our loved ones deserve the best we can offer. My pets are my family and I will always treat other animals the way I treat my own. With love, compassion and patience. I have never been a groomer but I love giving dogs a good brushing to keep their coat clean and tangle free. Currently my family consists of three large dogs and two kittens we rescued from the side of the road. I currently am a stay at home dog mom so I can easily adjust plans and care for your pets. I would love for you to consider hiring me. Available every day and any time, I typically have appointments in the afternoon. I take care of my 4 animals while my husband works and study herbalism. Whenever I take care of another pet I treat them as my own. With tons of pets and love! I will respect your home and leave it as I found it or better.
About: When it comes to your pets, you want them to have the best care there is. My animals are my children. So, I understand the need to feel secure and confident when choosing a pet-sitter. I will treat your pet(s) as if they are my own and give them as much attention and love as they rightfully deserve. You can rest assured they will be in safe, trustworthy and above all, loving hands while you are away. I am competent working with large and small breeds of dogs ,cats (all temperaments), and exotics. Given my veterinary training, I am proficient in identifying emergencies and critical situations that may require veterinary attention should they arise. I'm comfortable with administering medications, following strict feeding/health regiments, and caring for senior, special-needs animals and animals/currently undergoing strict medical regiments. I pride myself in my promptness and ability to strictly adhere to any and all instructions provided. Playtime and walks are an important part of your animal's daily routine and enrichment. During your pet's time with me, I will ensure they receive adequate stimulation and the same quality of care you provide them at home. You can also expect daily pictures and updates of your pet while you are away. A few facts about me and my qualifications: Caring for animals has always been a passion of mine. Growing up, I've had several dogs, cats, birds and other various exotics. Currently, I am lucky to be the proud parent of 4 cats. They are my world!! I recently moved to the area from Bonita Springs, FL, where I was a full time vet tech of several years. Veterinary medicine and caring for animals is my calling in life, and I cannot imagine doing anything else. I love being able to help the members of my community and their fur babies! I also volunteered at a wolf sanctuary for 10 years where I was heavily involved with animal husbandry and medication administration. I am available weekdays and weekends to provide your pet(s) the ultimate care. I am detail oriented and am used to caring for multiple animals at once (including sick or recovering). When staying at a client's home or dropping in for a visit/walk I am respectful of your space first and foremost. I am also extremely cautious when entering a home so as not to let animals out as that is my #1 worry with my own animals. I am also a neat freak and will leave your space as you found it.
