I have a flexible schedule and I keep close track on what times I am available on a given day. I do not work full time which allows me to be more flexible. I have one dog, five guinea pigs, and fish. I love buying them toys and special treats. Snuggling with them on the couch and playing fetch!

About: In my family we have always had pets in out home, we fostered animals of all ages, and have had many dogs and cats! I often stay at family members houses while they’re at vacation or simply out of town to take care of their fur babies! I currently have a dog and a cat, both are super friendly and don’t mind other animals, But i do walk and feed them plus love on them!! Play time will always be available and of course pets and love! I feed my animals twice a day but whatever diet your animal has i can do! If you bathe your dog often i can do that as well, along with any grooming requirements you may have!

About: Being an energetic and patient person, your pets will thrive in my care, getting loved like they are my own. I have many years of experience w/ dogs & cats, a couple reptiles, and an occasional hamster. Not having any pets of my own, and being an empty nester, I have a very flexible schedule as well. I am now an empty nester, with no pets of my own, so my schedule is very flexible. I can happily provide short- or long-term care for your pets. I will ensure that your pet is loved and kept safe from harm. I can also give your pet a bath if needed, take them on walks and/or runs, give medication and lots of snuggles!

About: I have worked with animals as long as I can remember. I graduated with an Animal sciences degree at one of the only AZA (American Zoological Association) accredited Colleges/Schools in the United States. I have worked with a wide variety of species, including Venomous Reptiles, Fruit Bats, hoof-stock, primates and raptors. After I had children I switched to working with vets and worked for an AAHA accredited practice in Florida as a vet technician. I currently have two Labrador Retrievers. They enjoy long walks and playing in the snow. I am comfortable with all breeds and sizes of animals, including any exotics that may need cared for. Please reach out and connect with any animal questions you may have. And i look forward to meeting you and furry feathered or scaled creatures.

About: I’m a college student who loves dogs and is looking for a side gig doing something I actually enjoy. I’m comfortable with all dogs and love playing with them, walking them, and making sure they’re happy while you’re away. I’m reliable, easy to communicate with, and will treat your pet like family!

“Stacey was amazing and went above and beyond for me and my pets. She mentioned she has 3 large dogs and her experience really showed. At one point I ran out of dog food and she offered to go pick some up. She also watched over my guinea pig and took great care of him, since she has rabbits of her own. I will definitely be booking her again and again!”

About: I've taken care of pets all of my life. From puppies all the way up to seniors. I love them all. They all need someone to care for them and feel the extra love especially when their normal family is away. I'm currently flexible and can fit pet care into my daily routine. Occasionally, I will pick up an additional job. But that shouldn't interrupt with taking care of what I love to do and that is to take care of fur babies. I would rather take care of your pets in their environment due to the fact that they are most comfortable there. I also have two fur babies of my own. But I feel as if fur babies are normally happy in their own surroundings.

About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs my entire life. I’ve always had animals in my household. Neighbors, family, and friends have always trusted me to watch their furry friends while they were away. I work part time at a school from august to may. I have plenty of time every day at home to watch and play with your animals. I have a large fenced in yard for my dogs at home. I live with parents so my dogs have multiple people to let them out and play when needed. In clients homes I let them out often and I am able to walk them and play with them frequently.

“Andrew is an exceptional dog, cat sitter! I'm very picky who I'll let watch my best friend & stay in my house and he did an amazing job. He communicated regularly with pics and videos and everyone was happy when I returned! I can't wait to use him regularly when we need a dog/cat sitter! Thank you Andrew!!”

About: I grew up with cats, rescued mutts, and Great Danes. As an adult I had 2 cats. After they passed, I decided I would foster or pet sit! I have experience with puppies, kittens, and adults! I currently regularly pet sit 2 different pit mixes. One is high energy and the other has a lot medical needs. I am comfortable with sleeping with the pet or crating. I am also comfortable and experienced with administering medication. I am able to basically move into your home to help provide consistent care, other than doctors appts I will be in the home with your pets! I will inform you of any preplanned times the pet would be alone before accepting the job. I currently work 8-6 Tuesday and Wednesday pet sitting, taking care of a preschooler and doing housework. I am also part of team of family members that care for our elderly and fragile grandparents. I am also a fiber artist (crochet and knitting) and sell my projects online and at 4-8 hour craft markets some weekends. I’m able to work my schedule around your needs EXCEPT for Tues and Wens DAYS! I have a lot experience with special medical needs pets. This has made me vigilant in assuring multiple times a day that the pets environment is free from risks. I makes sure they are comfortable, and try hard to keep them relaxed as being with a stranger can cause stress.
