About: I've been pet sitting for a few years now! I grew up with dogs, cats, fish, and hamsters, and they were integral members of our family. I absolutely love meeting and taking care of new pets, and I've gotten pretty good at it over time. I'll take dogs on walks, or to the dog park, dog beach, and give them baths if needed. I work monday-friday 9-2 so as long as your dog is good on their own for 5-6 hours, it will work out! Otherwise won't leave them alone for more than 6 hours. Not able to have the dogs at our house, but I'll gladly care for your pets at your home in whatever fashion works best for you!

About: My first job at 12 was dog walking/sitting but I have been a lifelong animal lover! I grew up with dogs and adopted my cat about 8 years ago. I have cared for both young and elderly dogs/cats as well as those with special needs and medical conditions. I am currently a stay at home mom with my five year old son. My availability is very open especially going into the summer months. Although I may not be able to do overnight stays at this time, I can do later evenings and earlier mornings. I do have a fenced in backyard that I can accommodate your pup with! I also have a dog in my home who is very friendly and would love play if you allow it. If not I will keep them separate. I can take your dog out to a local trail or walk them in your neighborhood. With cats I would be vigilant in keeping them away from open doors unless allowed. I know they love to explore small spaces and I take extra precautions to keep my girl safe! I love getting to know all the unique personalities of different cats, I love a good cuddle as well as some fun playtime. I have a special place in my heart for senior kitties.

About: I’ve had pets in my house for a majority of my life and have spent that time helping to care for them. I have also been watching others pets for about three years now, including both cats and dogs. Tasks included feeding on a schedule, taking for walks / outside to go potty, cleaning/scooping the litter box, and of course making sure they’re safe and not getting into any trouble while you’re gone. I have hands on experience in watching after and caring for a terminally ill dog for about six months. Those tasks included changing his dressing (he had an open wound that refused to heal), giving medications on a schedule, and giving enrichment that he could enjoy with limited energy. I also have hands on experience with reactive dogs, so please know that I will love your reactive pup just as much. I can do basic training, but my favorite part of the job is showering the animals with love and attention. This is my full time job! I have a few side gigs that I work on remotely and can do from just about anywhere so long as I have WiFi access to communicate with my colleagues! I’m used to many kinds of temperaments, from “you stay in your corner and I’ll stay in mine” to “I need to be as close to you as possible at all times” and will respect your dogs needs. I prefer setting up a time before the sitting starts where I can just get to know the pet(s) and get an idea of their normal schedule. This way they can meet me while everyone is home so they feel most comfortable, and I’m not a complete stranger once I begin sitting or come over to let them out for a potty break.

About: I've had dogs and cats my whole life, family and friends call me when a answer to a question is needed. I'm the go to for fun and trust is needed when your mind needs to be on a vacation or work! I have a successful business than pretty much runs itself. So I'm home, on my bicycle, or at the beach enjoying my time Willing to enjoy my time with what I love most ANIMALS!!❤ I have a friendly 5 year old fixed female dog that can be out or in, away from others or with 2 fixed out door cats that a used to dogs or have room to leave out side of fence, I have very large cages if needed as well. I have lots of room to roam in fenced area I have creek water access out side of fence area I can be very active with dog ( on bike) 3 miles from lake michigan Or chill with low energy dogs

“My dog is pretty anxious when it comes to new people/being around people when I’m not present, but Jasmine is so great with him! She was able to meet him prior to becoming his dog walker and he loved her instantly.”

About: I specialize in dogs that most sitters avoid: reactive or anxious dogs leash-pullers herding breeds multi-dog households I live with 3 Aussies and have handled dogs who resource guard, get overstimulated in public, or need structure to feel safe. I’m calm, patient, and observant. No yelling, no panic — just steady handling and respect for your dog’s thresholds. You’ll get detailed updates, photos, and honest communication. Your dog stays safe and understood. I keep a flexible schedule and prioritize consistency for the dogs in my care. I’m available most mornings, afternoons, and early evenings, and I can reliably commit to regular weekly walks or ongoing exercise plans. If your dog thrives on routine, I’ll make sure we stick to it. Because I specialize in high-energy and working breeds, I plan our sessions around the time of day when they’ll get the most out of the experience—whether that’s a crisp morning hike, a mid-day outing when the neighborhood is quieter, or an evening decompression walk after work. I do my best to accommodate weather, distance, and drive levels so each dog leaves satisfied, not just “checked off.” If you have a long workday, variable shifts, or need help during busy weeks, just tell me what your situation looks like. I’m comfortable coordinating schedules, and once we establish a routine I am very dependable. Your dog’s safety and wellbeing come before everything else. My approach is simple: clear communication, calm leadership, and respect for the individual needs of each dog. I don’t rush, force, or overextend dogs—every outing is tailored to their age, fitness level, and temperament. I’m experienced with strong, high-drive breeds and understand how to manage leash pulling, overstimulation, and reactivity in a controlled way. I use secure equipment, keep my dogs leashed at all times on trails, and never take unnecessary risks. If conditions aren’t safe—heat, ice, traffic, wildlife—we adjust the plan but still make sure your dog is fulfilled. When I walk or hike with a dog, I treat them with the same responsibility and care as my own Australian Shepherds. I monitor their body language, energy level, hydration, and fatigue throughout the session. My goal is not just to tire out a dog—it’s to help them decompress, explore, and return home calm, relaxed, and happy. I take trust seriously, both for pets and their owners. I communicate clearly, send updates, and make sure you never wonder how your dog is doing. You’ll always know where your dog is, what we’re doing, and how they handled the outing. I want you to feel confident that when your dog is with me, they are safe, respected, and getting the level of care they deserve.

“She communicated well and walked our did everything we asked”

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and genuinely love taking care of them. I have two dogs and two cats of my own, and I also grew up on a farm where I helped care for all kinds of animals. That experience taught me to be patient, responsible, and really pay attention to what each animal needs. I’m comfortable with pets of all ages and personalities, and I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. As a college student, I do have a busy schedule, but I make sure to prioritize my time so that any pets in my care get the attention they deserve. I can work my classes and study around walks, playtime, feeding, or any special needs your pets might have. I enjoy spending time with animals, so making them a part of my daily routine fits in naturally. At home, I have two Golden Retrievers and two cats, so caring for pets is part of my daily life. I love taking my dogs on hikes or for drives to burn off energy, and I’m all about cuddling and giving attention to my cats. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I do the same. Following their routines, making sure they get exercise, playtime, and lots of love so they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away.
