Dog Sitting Portage

About: I'm an experienced dog sitter and work at a veterinary clinic as a kennel attendant, where I care for dogs and cats of all ages, including puppies, seniors, and pets with special needs. I provide safe, reliable, and compassionate care, and I'll treat your pet like they're my own. Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine. I work as a kennel attendant at a veterinary clinic and plan my schedule to provide reliable walks, drop-in visits, and attentive care before and after work, as well as on my days off. I follow each pet's normal routine to help them feel safe and comfortable. I provide fresh food and water, walks or playtime, potty breaks, lots of attention, and any requested medications or special care. I always keep owners updated with photos and messages so they know their pet is happy and well cared for.

About: Your family is my family I have a genuine love for all animals. Some call them pets I call them family! I enjoy spending time with these adorable fur babies, and this app allows me to do it for most of my day! I am pretty unorthodox as I don't have a 9-5 I believe in following my passions and this just so happens to be top of my list. My schedule is super flexible to cater to your families needs I have a fenced yard with plenty of room for running around, tossing a frisbee, or for just laying out and catching a breeze © I have cages if that's what you prefer, music, television, or even a good book if that's what your family enjoys I’m a stay at home mom so I enjoy the company! Pets are thee most loving and kindest to be around. It is my absolute pleasure to take care of them I have a fenced backyard, plenty of toys, dog treats and love to give! My style of caring for your fur babies is making them feel at home by keeping them close by my side until you return lots of rubs and walks so they can check out the neighborhood and get some fresh air!

About: I’ve provided dedicated care for a diverse range of animals, including dogs, cats, bunnies, (Sun Conure, Leopard Gecko) and many more. I offer a highly flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize your pet’s needs throughout the week. My days are built around giving animals regular attention, exercise, and companionship. I understand that animals thrive best in familiar environments, surrounded by their usual sights and smells. I strictly stick to your schedule for feeding, medication, potty breaks, and walks.

About: Taking care of animals when explaining what I do is a understatement. I’ve had animals all my life, whether feeding, caring, etc… I’m the one to do it. I simply just have a genuine passion for pets. I’d have one of my own but I’m in school. From bathing, grooming, walking… I literally do it all. So let me get to know your pet. I currently work a Part-Time job so I definitely have freedom and time to care for your pet. My days are a little wonky, but I communicate so that won’t be a problem. In my home, a dog is not a animal. It might as well be a human. I treat ANY pet with extreme care, putting them first before my own self. In a client’s home, it’s the same way, obviously with owners guidelines in mind… I’d make sure the dog is in great hands and care.

“Bola’s wonderful! We’re glad to have her support with our dogs.”

About: I love animals. I have owned a horse, birds and fish. Although I never owned a dog or cat, Friends and family have always asked me to pet sit and I have always been more than happy to ablige. As a former letter Carrier, my favorite customers were four-legged. I am retired and want to stay active. Who can keep you more fit and active than a dog that is waiting for a walk-date? When I have dog sat, I usually go for multiple walks. I can walk all day. The dogs love it and it makes them tired. Animals need mental stimulation outside of their house or yard just like people. I try to find things to keep us both busy and happy.

“We were pretty nervous about leaving our kitty alone for almost a week, since he’d only been with us for a month, but the number of pics and videos that were sent showed us he was eating well and having fun play time. We looked forward to seeing how he was doing at each check-in.”

I work virtually throughout the week during the day and this allows me to spend as much time as possible with your fur baby. It also provides me with quite a bit of flexibility in my schedule and I'm off of work on Sundays too. I like to take it slow when first meeting them and I let them come to me and get my scent. I administer necessary medications if administered in food. I also make sure all doors and windows are locked so the fur babies can't accidentally open any by jumping up on it. I also take great care when arriving and leaving so that they can't run out of the door, just in case they're a little escape artist. Oh! And I will be taking daily cute pics of your pet to keep you updated and at ease knowing they're having a good time.

About: My parents would take me to their friends houses growing up and if they couldn’t find me they would look for the family pet and know that’s where I would probably be.

About: We have always had dogs since i was a little girl. I am now 48, four grown children and divorced. I have the time and desire to care for other animals. Dogs love me as they are a great judge of character. I have dogs sat for weeks at a time. I enjoy playing with them as Im still a kid at heart. I don't mind a clingy animal as I love the affection. I have trained my dog to speak, high five and most recently ride with me on my Harley! I am disabled so I do not work outside the home. I wake up around 9am, let my dog out to go potty. Give him breakfast and flea prevention meds. I try to play with him in the house for twenty minutes a day. As his type of breed, he needs to burn off energy. I let him out for exercise and a bathroom rig, at least four times during the day. I put him to bed around 9pm. Some nights, he sleeps with me, other nights he gets crated. I have a fenced in yard, with room to play. My scooby enjoys playing with other dogs. Scooby gets crated when he is not supervised and sometimes overnight. I have no problem trading other pets. I do have a sleeping room for pets who are not crated. I would prefer to dog sit overnight in the client's home. I own a cleaning business with five stars. So I am well trusted in the community.
