About: I grew up around animals and have always had a love for them. I have taken care of animals of all types dogs (all sizes), cats, guinea pigs, birds, etc. I currently care for a dog & a cat on a regular basis by making sure they are fed, have water, get sunlight, go for walks, and give them lots of love & affection. I can keep certain animals separate if they are known to get into fights as well as keep certain animals out of certain rooms if they are known to ruin furniture.

About: I’ve lived with 5+ dogs at a time since I was born. I have been trusted to watch dogs ranging from puppies to 17+ years old. I’m currently in college, so I am available to care for your pet at all times except when I am in class. My schedule varies each day, but I can always make time! I am willing to accommodate to any and all needs of your pet. I understand that all dogs have their weird quirks, and I’m excited to make a new best friend!

I spent 4 years as a dog walker at an animal shelter, so I believe that I am highly capable of handling a plethora of personalities. My favorite dogs are rottweilers and labradoodles! I work full-time, so I am available before 8:30 and after 5 on Monday through Thursday. I work virtually Friday, so I have more flexibility. My weekends are open when not traveling My apartment has a dog park and long walking trail that connects to it, so I am happy to do lots of enrichment time and walking. I am used to be around pets 24/7 from my clingy childhood dogs, so I can keep a very watchful eye in a home if needed!

“Lima was wonderful! We were away from our shy cat for over a week, I wasn’t sure if she’d even come out of hiding. But Lima sent us pictures of her eating and drinking, and even getting some rubs, so Zatanna obviously felt very comfortable with Lima. I’d recommend Lima to anyone for any animal, but can vouch that she’s good with skittish cats.”



About: Hi there! I’m Irma. All my life I have lived with dogs. Growing up, I had two corgis and now currently have another! As a pet and wedding photographer, I understand patience but I also know how to achieve a good doggy smile. Spending quality time caring to make sure your fur baby is happy is number one. Running through parks, throwing frisbee, and toy playing with them are just some of the things you can expect from me. I hope you will pick me because you won't have to worry while you are away. If I’m sitting, checking in, or walking for them - they will have my full attention. Your pup will have loads of fun and playtime with me. I want to be able to put you at ease knowing that he or she is safe and having a great time. :) I have a flexible schedule as I work for myself to ensure full responsibility. I can work around a normal 9 to 5 and communicate well with you. I’m comfortable doing what you need me to do in the comfort of your home. If they like to be in the bed or if you would like me to crate, either way they will get love!

About: Iv’e taken care of dogs since I was six years old. from some being my own to some being friends and family. i’ve had four dogs at one time from some being fosters and some being my own. ranging from small to large sizes so I am well-versed in this area. I currently have two little dogs Bella and Cody which I love so much. l currently have no job, so I'll have plenty 1 on 1 time to play with your pups! I'm available for drop in visits and dog walking on weekdays and some weekends times varying depending on needs. I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs I take care of. They are groomed regularly and are on track with their medication. So no ticks, flea’s, etc..

About: I currently work as a vet technician and will attend to your pet(s) as if they were my own pets and patients. By any means, if there are any special needs for your pet (diet, medications, medical concerns, etc.), I will use my knowledge and resources to ensure your fur baby has a comfortable stay. I handle pet care on a day to day basis with my own pets and at work. If your pet requires special attention while boarding, I can bring them with me to my job so they are under supervisor at all times with the help of my peers. Mid-day visits will only be scheduled on the weekends, to ensure your pet gets the time and attention necessary. Although I do not have a fenced yard, I have a quiet and spacious neighborhood that allows long walks. Your pet will never be alone with the company of my own dogs and cats, and my partner who works from home and is also experienced in animal care (5 years shelter/boarding care). I am currently working full-time at Saint Francis Veterinary Specialists. Initially, my only availability will be Mondays, Fridays, and on the weekends to ensure your pet gets the attention they need. My day-to-day routine is all about animal care as it is something I am passionate about. Your baby will be treated as if they were my own. I prioritize and make arrangements for my pets before attending to any plans made for the day. I love that my pets get to have the freedom to lay around and do as they please majority of the day. They are crate trained, but spend only 10% of their life in the crate. Now, pets will be pets and get into things they are not supposed to. However, I have secured my home as much to my ability to prevent these scenarios.

About: Back home, I grew up with 13+ animals (dogs, cats, birds, a racoon, a squirrel, and even sugar gliders!!!) and through that experience I have gained knowledge and understanding of how to correctly take care of a pet. Whether it be play-time, going on walks, baths, or even being fed, I am definitely the girl to contact if you want to make sure your pet is well taken care of. I'm currently a college student, although I tend to finish my work early, and I am focused on pursuing the career I was called to do, so Rover is just a side job for me, however, given enough of a heads up, I would gladly love to work with you and your fur-baby! I'm unable to house animals in my house (landlord forbids animals, sadly), however, during walks and or sittings, I have no issue with aiding to the animal's needs and ensuring their safety with guided measures. I would also take into consideration how you, the owner, take care of your fur-baby in order to maintain civility.
