About: I am an active sitter that enjoys walks and wants your dog to be distracted while you are away! I grew up with cats and love them just as much. I work as a coach and have time throughout the day in the offseason to come over and walk your dog if needed. In the summer, we are off contract and have plenty of opportunities to help. I have a very needy Doberman so we take walks in the morning and evening every day. I also come home for lunch to make sure he can get outside.
About: I am responsible, respectful, and reliable. I have taken care of pets for as long as I can remember. I’m not going to let you down. I am semi retired and available most days. I do have some physical limitations, but we can address them as needed if that would be an issue. I can just let them out and check for food and water, I can take them for a walk, and I can work with special needs. The idea is that you feel comfortable knowing that you’re pet is safe and happy.
About: Hello! I go by Nic and you should choose me because I have pets my whole life and absolutely love and adore them. I do NOT believe in spanking or aggressive punishment. I feel a good, firm, loud No or noise will be sufficient enough. I would love to sit for your pet and give it the love and care I would my own. Spending time and taking care of them is fun for me. I have two dogs: My little one is named Bella. A few years ago I adopted a stray German Shepherd Lab Mix. His name is Reptar and his personality is just hysterical. I also took in a stray cat about 6 years ago. His name is Lucifer and he is a spitfire. All three are my pride and joy. They are the best things that have ever happened to me. I am available for dog sitting in your home or I can stop in and check on your babies. Whatever you would like I can do! I really don't feel comfortable walking a dog who is aggressive towards other animals when they are out and on a leash. Other than that, I am happy to provide pet service requests! I love caring for pets. My goal is to make sure your pets are comfortable and happy while you're away. I have had pets my whole life and consider them an important part of the family. This service is no longer available for me to provide at this time. My apologies for this inconvenience. It is subject to change in the future.

About: I was raised around all kinds of animals. I respect the fact that they have their own boundaries and tolerance towards certain things. I love helping animals over come fears and building relationships with them. I own 2 dogs and 4 cats. Animal care is second nature to me. I enjoy all of their personalities and mannerisms. To me, life isn’t complete without a dog or cat by your side. My yard is not fenced in, but I have tie downs both in my front and backyard. I have 2 very friendly dogs to keep your fur baby entertained. If you have a cat, don’t worry we have a safe place set up in our home just for them.

I respect their environment and follow any specific instructions closely. While I don’t currently have a dog in my own home, that allows me to give your pet my full attention without distractions. My dog currently passed so we have an electric fence but that’s it! If your pet stays with me, they’ll have a clean, calm, pet-friendly space with lots of one-on-one care, playtime, and love. I’m all about making them feel at home—whether it’s their place or mine.
