About: I am reliable, loving, and attentive, ensuring pets feel safe, happy, and well-cared for while their owners are away. I feel pets are part of the family and I do allow them on my furniture and give lots of snuggles and kisses. I have over 26 years of experience raising my own pets to identify sickness and can administer meds (including insulin shots) if needed. Your fur babies will be my top priority and I promise to care for them like they are my own. I am available for watching your fur baby in my home to include overnight or coming to your house (not overnight), walks, or other care you may need. My schedule is flexible and will accommodate your needs. I have a privacy fenced yard and 4 sweet pups of my own to keep your dog(s) company. My property has multiple video cameras for security and I can send you photos and videos while you are away or FaceTime with you so you can see your babies are having fun and being well taken care of and loved. I understand pet care very well as I have had 8 fur babies previous to the 4 I have currently from big dogs to little dogs. I am very aware of changes in behavior or if fur babies aren’t feeling well and will communicate with you if I think your baby is not feeling well.

About: I’ve been around pets my entire life and have been taking care of them from a young age. Animals have always been a major part of my life, and the bond I have with them is apparent to animals and humans alike. I’ve cared for cats, dogs, reptiles, and fish, but love all furry, scaly, or feathery friends. I’ve also cared for these animals at all stages of life. Your babies will love being cared for by me, they’ll be loved and cared for just like my own family! My schedule is currently available around the clock, I have availability during the mornings, daytime, and evenings both weekdays and weekends. Contact me today for care! I am available to care for your pets at your home, or take your dogs on walks in the immediate area around your house. You can rest assured that your pet will be treated with compassion, care, and attention.

About: Hi! My name is April. After growing up around dogs, my husband and I decided to get our first dog-a Hurricane Katrina rescue-as soon as we got married! Having a love for dogs evolved into a partnership with a local rescue in which I've volunteered for transport, adoption home visits, adoption follow up, and fostering. 3 dogs later-I enjoy walking the dogs around the farm, car rides(with drive thrus for pup treats of course!), and cuddling on the couch(our dogs know how to nap!). My friends know that my house is the "dog house" and that their dogs are welcome to come have fun and hang out too! I tend to be the "go to" friend when someone needs a pet sitter:) I specialize in special needs and geriatric care.

About: I’ve had experience with Dogs and Cats basically my entire life, but took over caring for my childhood pets as they aged! Now I’m a pittie mom x2 with my boyfriend! I’m a college student currently, and work 3 days a week on breaks, so I have a pretty open schedule to fit various availability needs! To me, our pets are our family. I see my own as children and I dote on them and love them as such. Big or small, dogs or cats. I love them all.

About: I’ve been taking care of pets since I was 10. I’ve had multiple animals and use to work for pet smart as a dog trainer. I’m currently a stay at home mom so I have open availability. Weekdays and weekend, day and night. This gives me the flexibility to come whenever. It’s up to the pet parents. I can do whatever is needed. I can do anything from crating, to walking to playing, feeding or changing litter.

About: I’ve been pet sitting for over 10 years, starting in middle school and continuing through college and grad school. I have experience with dog walking, drop-in visits, overnight stays, and caring for both dogs and cats. While in school, I regularly pet sat for families in Pennsylvania and built lasting relationships through reliable, attentive care. I’ve worked with pets of all ages and sizes—including dogs with health issues who require medication, special routines, or extra attention. What sets me apart is my lifelong connection to animals. I grew up in a home with pets throughout my childhood—including 4 dogs (labs and pointers), 6 cats, and 10 bunnies—so caring for animals has always been a part of my life. I’m dependable, patient, and genuinely love making animals feel safe, happy, and cared for. I recently started a full-time role, but the great news is I only work three days a week! That means I still have plenty of availability during weekdays and weekends for drop-ins, walks, and pet sitting. I'm happy to work with your schedule and provide consistent care for your pets while you're away or at work. Feel free to reach out with any questions or requests—I’d love to help! ***However, I will be working 4 days a week through the end of September. I will note that I work 10- 12 hour days on Mondays and Tuesdays, but I’m willing to be creative with you to ensure your pets are taken care of!*** I take safety and trust seriously and always aim to make both pets and their owners feel at ease. I care for pets in their own home to help maintain their routine and comfort, which I know is especially important for animals who may get anxious in unfamiliar environments. I follow all instructions carefully—whether it's feeding schedules, medication, walking routes, or playtime preferences—and I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you know your pet is safe and happy while you're away. I treat every pet like my own and every home with the utmost respect, keeping things clean, secure, and exactly how you left them. You can feel confident that your furry friend is in caring, trustworthy hands.

About: I have open availability to take care of your pet as if they were my own! I do have a dog of my own that is super friendly. I’m great with training, super caring and will love each dog as if they were my own! I have always grown up with a dog in my home and been taking sole care of them for multiple years. I also work with a local dog rescue known as Dauntless Dog and have fostered for the last two years! I enjoy getting to spend time with all animals inside and outside of my home. If you have any questions, I am open and willing to answer any that you might have. Thank you for your time. I have open availability to take the best possible care of your pets and give them a loving and playful environment that keeps them happy and healthy. I can care for your pets in your home as well as drop in visits and walks when needed whether it be one time or on a consistent basis
