About: During college I began looking after others fur babies as a side job. I love all animals; dogs, cats & most reptiles. I’ve been looking after others pets for over 5 years now! I currently have a dog with separation anxiety, and I’m looking to make this full time! I currently work as a property manager, but I am looking to transition into a different field. I believe that pursuing this opportunity is a meaningful step toward finding greater fulfillment and long-term satisfaction in my work. I currently live in the country with a SEVEN acres of land ready to play on! While it is not fenced in, it is a tucked away property away from the road!

About: I have been house and pet sitting for friends and family for years now, and honestly it is my favorite vacation! Animals deserve all the love! College student by day, per diem patient care technician by night. It may sound busy, but the time your pet needs, I can attempt to deliver! In house pet sitting is my forte! I enjoy a morning to night routine with pets that ensures their quality care and happiness. To be transparent, I need to be away for maximum 3 hours for classes (M,T,TH,F), but I assure you that that is the most time they will spend alone!

About: I have been caring for cats and dogs for over 28 years. My experience extends to fish, hamsters and lizards as well. I administered medicine as requested/needed, change cat litter, clean up vomit, and give all the basic care as well. I am a substitute teacher, so I have the flexibility needed to care for pets. I have a family that works to together to care for our pets so I have time to schedule drop ins and walk in and occasional overnights. My dogs are fed twice a day. My German Shepherd, Husky, Belgian Malinois and I play in our large yard and I take time to train them. I have a large yard my dogs freely play fetch and run in. I walk my dogs on my road, go hiking, walk local trails and take them to dog parks to play with other pups. Depending on the space at my clients home I either care for them in their neighborhood or I go to local parks for walks. Also depending on my client I take their dog for a car adventure to get a pup cup or visit Petco to pick out a toy and I always use a dog seatbelt. We have so much fun together.

Kerrie was absolutely exceptional with our 7 year old husky, Kira. She was on time, incredibly communicative, and very understanding of Kira’s unorthodox routine. When circumstances and asks changed, Kerrie went above and beyond to accommodate with pleasure. We confidently recommend her for your pet needs and will absolutely be using Kerrie in the future.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my diverse experience and adaptability to meet the unique needs of every pet. I have a special focus on both puppies and senior pets, offering tailored care for each stage of life. With puppies, I provide basic training, reinforcing positive behaviors and helping with crate training, potty training, and socialization. For senior pets, I’m attentive to their special needs, offering extra comfort, gentle exercise, and medication management. Additionally, I pride myself on building a strong bond with pets, ensuring they feel safe and loved in my care. Whether it’s administering medications or managing special diets, I take the time to make sure every pet receives the highest level of personalized attention and care. Caring for someone else's pet fits into my daily routine by ensuring they are fed, exercised, and given attention, just like I would for my own pet. I make time for walks or play sessions, and check in on their well-being. When caring for pets in a client's home, I follow their feeding, exercise, and medication routines. I ensure the pet is safe, comfortable, and engaged with regular play or walks. I also maintain a clean environment and provide updates to the client. My goal is to offer the same care and attention the pet is used to.

Aracely let out and fed my puppy midday for 2 months until the end of my school year. She took great care of my little guy. There were two times that she canceled morning of and, with that late notice, I was not able to leave work or get anyone else to take him out. I understand life happens but my little guy did go to the bathroom in his crate both of those days. If I could give 4 1/2 stars, I would!

About: I have had a dog of my own since I was 12 and absolutely adore all animals. I did a decent amount of dogsitting over the 2022 summer and loved it :) I am a freshman and hamilton college but hoping to do more over the upcoming summer. I am honestly pretty open other than working 1-5 usually everyday. Besides that I am available to take care of your pup whenever it is needed :) Please just let me know what works best for you! I love to take dogs on walks and really just spend quality time with them. I really just enjoy the company and think they’re adorable :) I could play all day or watch a show on the couch with some pets depending on what they need from me!

About: I’ve grown up with all types of animals which always included dogs! I was trusted with walking, feeding and bathing the dogs we had along with other family members pets as well. Have had a good time watching my sister’s and brother in laws pets when they were busy and am very good at taking care of their dogs! I am currently between jobs so I have lots of time on my hands to come walk or watch your pets! Any time of day is good for me as well At my home I only have a small dog of my own right now but we have a lead in the front yard but most of the time I am open to walking the dogs up and around the land and farm we have for their potty breaks. I’m up to walking any of your dogs at your home if you don’t have a fenced yard. I am open to any size dog and any breed

About: Hi, I am a volunteer EMT and have a life long passion for dogs and all animals. On my spare time, my wife (Melinda) and I enjoy various aspects of the outdoors, no matter the season. We frequently pet sit for my brother-in law's German Shepard, who is full of energy, of which I have learned all the commands and public interaction techniques. This has been ongoing for approximately the past 4 years. * Melinda and I extensively clean and disinfect our house not only before and after each dog but also on a regular basis as well. We are excited to be part of your dog care needs and you can be sure your pets will be well taken care of with us as a smooth transition. Whether it is walking, playing, or pet sitting, we are here to help! Please message us as you know your plans. Thank you for your consideration and we look forward to hearing from you! Conveniently I work very close to home and can come home to check on the puppy on my lunch break though that time varies from day to day. We have a long lead in our backyard that we can adjust accordingly and we are always outside with your fur-baby. We also have friendly neighbors and multiple eyes checking in periodically. My wife and I have a fleece-lined jacket 4 any puppy to help combat the weather. Additionally we have couch protectors, Memory Foam bed, a basket of toys, and food and water dish set up
