About: I’ve taken care of dogs all my life and I’m looking forward to taking care of yours. I have a dog of my own who is a 28lb mini labradoodle. She's super sweet and social, and part of the reason I like to dog sit is because she likes having a buddy around to play with. I work from home every day so Sage and I will be with your dog all day! I live in an apartment building but I am near a walking trail and dog park. I work from home so I'll be home during day! In case I have to run out for errands I would like to know how you board your dog when you're away. I will be available if you have any questions/concerns. **Please ensure that your dog comes fully groomed/clean!** I take my dog on a long walk once in the morning (8 am) and once in the afternoon (5:30 pm) with a short potty break mid day and right before bed. I can adjust my schedule to ensure your dog feels comfortable! If I go to a dog park but I typically go early in the mornings or mid day when it is empty. If you don’t want your dog at a dog park at all that’s 100% fine with me!

“I highly recommend Jenna! She provided excellent care for our babies Major and Bella! The Rover reports were thorough and filled with plenty of pictures! She followed my instructions perfectly! When I returned home, everything was just as we left it! You've definitely gained a repeat customer in us!”

“Audrey is the best, you can tell she really cares for animals and respects our home. Our dog just loves her visits and spending time with her. She is great at keeping me up to date on her visits with many photos and long notes, making our time always easier because we know our pup is taken care of.”

“Connor was absolutely fantastic! He was friendly, communicative, and flexible! He provided great reports and updates for our little kitty and sent several photos of each visit! We will definitely be using Connor again.”

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life, i live for them! I’ve raised 2 puppies and have had one bestfriend to grow up with, i love my 3 dogs. I’m a student and currently work at target so i’m choosing to do this on my days off to truly enjoy them lol. I’m very patient, very attentive, very flexible. I currently work part time at target and i am also a student, my off days are tuesdays and thursdays so that is my only availability as of right now sadly, but the time would be very flexible. i have 3 dogs as of right now, they are all fully grown pups. I live in a very dog friendly area there is a dog park right across the street actually, we do not have a fence.

“Heather has been so helpful coming in to check on the dogs while my husband and I work a busy schedule! She is so thoughtful and caring with the dogs! We are so grateful for her help!!”

About: I’ve always had dogs and cats in the house. I have experience caring for both from birth to end of life. I can give medications, hand feed, clean incontinence/accidents, scoop and clean litter boxes, administer subcutaneous IV fluids, walk, play, and anything your baby may need. I will care for them as if they are my own and would love to spoil them. My schedule is semi-flexible as I work from home. I’m available afternoons and evenings. Feel free to reach out if a different time is needed and I will see what I can do. I am offering drop in visits and walking for right now. I will be respectful of your property and sensitive and patient with your baby.

About: I currently work at Hope Advanced Veterinary Center as a veterinary technician/ assistant in the Emergency Department. I have happily worked in this field for 6 years and will continue to work in this field, starting with general practice (the adorable puppy visits) Veterinary science has given me the opputrunity to work with all domesticated canines and felines. The confident and less reactive pets and pets who are scared and tend to be skittish or may even bite sometimes. With my expericence I believe I can have a great time with your pet and make each other very comfortable with my walks and visits. Also if your pet need any kind of medical help I can help with that also. A bonding experience with a new pet is what I literally thrive for.Big dogs and attitude filled cats are my favorite to look after, but my heart is open for every animal big or small. My expertise in the veterinary medical field would make me a great candidate to be your pets bestfriend. As an ER vet nurse I work 13 hours shifts 3 days a week Sun-Tues. I have one canine and one feline at home and we typically spend our days off outside in the park enjoying the sun. 4 days out the week I am able to commute and walk dogs and also pay house visits. So that way I can have more than 3 days out the week to enjoy other animal companions. Unfortunately I do not have enough space in my home to provide boarding, also my cat is easily stressed and I would hate to make her uncomfortable in her home. She also can be a bit of a queen.

“Jasmine was the perfect find for Jax. She was very responsive and on point with everything. Definitely a number 1 go to! Thank you Jas.”

About: “Having my own dog has given me years of hands-on experience with caring for and understanding dogs. I’m responsible, attentive, and genuinely love spending time with them. I’ve also watched and walked dogs for friends and neighbors, ensuring their pets are happy, exercised, and well-cared for. Dogs always feel safe and loved with me!” “I offer reliable pet care after school and on weekends. With experience caring for my own dog and others, I provide attentive walks, playtime, and love for pets.” “I prioritize your pet’s safety and well-being. I ensure a secure environment by keeping pets on leashes during walks and monitoring their surroundings. I am trustworthy and take responsibility seriously, giving you peace of mind while your pet is in my care.”

About: I have seven plus years of taken care of dogs that range from newly born puppies to terminally ill dogs. Breeds include toy poodles to pit bulls. I work mainly remote but I am available to assist with mornings, and mid-afternoon walks, house sitting and full time care on the weekends. It's a bonus if your baby likes long walks. I can come to your home to care for your baby to offer potty breaks, walks or house sit. I am happy to also host your baby at my home. I hope they are social as I do have dogs of my own that are super friendly.

“Mikaela is such a find! We were in a bit of an emergency situation with the dogs and she was able to save the day with her responsiveness, availability, and kindness. She gave super detailed reports on the dogs with every visit and it's clear how much she loves animals. Two massive thumbs up!”

About: I have experience with many different types of dogs (and some cats!) My family has had dogs my entire life from Rottweilers, to Bull Terriers, to Frenchies! Your pup will get all the love and attention it needs with me. I currently work full-time in an office Tuesday-Thursday, but am able to go home for breaks if your pup needs to go out during the day. I do have a very friendly 2 year old old Frenchie, so your pet must be able to be around other dogs. We go on daily walks and outside 5+ times a day. Pets are allowed on all furniture and can be on the bed if potty trained. I do have stairs so just one thing to keep in mind!
