About: Lifelong animal lover with 7+ years caring for my own 2 dogs, along trusted experience with friends and family’s pets. I make sure your pet feels loved, comfortable, and cared for at all times. I’m currently working part-time, so I have a lot of availability throughout the week. I love morning walks because they get me up to start my day while also being active. As well as mid-day and evening walks allow me to take a break from any tasks and get outside in the sun while having some fun! Whether I’m visiting your home or walking your pup, my goal is to keep them happy, safe, and comfortable. For walks, I make they get plenty of fresh air, exercise, a potty break, and time to sniff and explore while keeping a close eye. During home visits, I’ll refresh their water, feed them, give potty breaks and spend quality time. I’ll also follow any instructions you leave for me and always treat your home with respect.

About: I have experience with all kinds of dogs of all sizes. I have owned 3 pitbulls so I for sure know how to handle dogs that size. I also have a park near my house that is very discrete where the dogs can come roam around. It is fenced and barely anyone ever goes to. I used to bring my dogs over there when I had them. I am available full time if needed. I work from home. I can do pick up & drop as well. Please let me know, it would be my pleasure! I care for the dog as if they are my own. I know animals can become family, just as mine have became family. I will go accordingly to your dogs schedules and make sure they have the best care.

About: I grew up in a household with many pets of all kinds, I’ve volunteered at an animal shelter, worked in a pet store, and even worked with some exotic animals too. I’m comfortable around animals and I work hard to insure they feel safe and active with me. I am able to read a pet’s body language and communicate well both verbally and nonverbally. Every animal is different and has their own unique personality, and it’s a joy and reward to get to know each one. I have a flexible schedule and have experience long term housesitting (up to a month at a time). I am self-employed, so my schedule is quite flexible to accommodate your pets usual routines! I will generally be out and about at different times throughout the day, depending on errands and work. I will always keep you posted if I’ll be gone for more than a few hours at a time! I follow all instructions given to me on pet/home care. I treat the animals and home as if they were my own. I am a neat & tidy person, generally a homebody in the evenings, and I am a respectful sitter of both my clients and their lovely pets.

About: I've had a passion for caring for animals ever since I can remember. I would often pet sit for friends and family and I quickly learned I wanted to spend my life working with animals. Fast forward to the present, I am a full-time pet sitter that keeps a special place in my heart for each and every four-legged friend I've been able to care for! Pet care is my full-time job, so your pet is my top priority! I am available every weekday, weekends, and most holidays. I am available for overnight stays and drop-in visits. Overnight stays allow your pet to have someone there all day and all night to get the love they need while you can't be there; and drop-in visits allow your pet to get the care they need at the times they are used to at a frequency you pick. Feel at ease knowing your pet is in the comfort of their own home able to carry out their normal routine- whatever feeding, potty, and walk times your furry friend is used to.

About: I’ve always had a deep love for dogs and grew up surrounded by them, which led to years of hands-on experience in pet sitting, basic obedience training, and daily care. I’m especially patient with and attentive to dogs who may need a little extra support, whether that’s reinforcing routines, offering calm guidance, or simply providing extra care and affection. Until recently, I had an Australian Shepherd at home who was well-trained, active, and loved the company of other dogs. Saying goodbye to her in March 2026 was incredibly difficult, and that experience has only deepened my empathy and commitment to providing thoughtful, attentive care to every pet I work with. I continue to maintain an active lifestyle with regular walks and outdoor time, and I enjoy creating a safe, engaging, and positive environment tailored to each dog’s needs. I treat every pet as if they were my own and prioritize clear communication, consistency, and trust. If you’re looking for someone reliable, experienced, and genuinely invested in your dog’s well-being, I’d be happy to connect and see if we’re a good fit. I provide pet care in mornings, Midday, and in the evenings. I can be flexible with my work schedule as an occupational therapist to accommodate yours I work from home. Willing and ready to support you and your fur baby with the care they need while you’re away! Looking forward to meeting you!
