About: I have helped my family take care of our pets almost my whole life! Since moving out I’ve had my own pets (cats and dogs). I understand the importance of giving your pet attention while you’re gone, since they could be stressed with the change in routine! I’m a farm girl at heart! I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, horses, donkeys, sheep, ducks, chickens, cows, pigs, rats, hamsters….you name it! I work from home so I’m available to spend time with your pets throughout the day! As long as I have access to Wi-Fi I can work from anywhere! I am comfortable with crate training if your pet needs it. I follow direction very well so just leave me with a detailed note on how things run and I’ll keep it as consistent as possible for your pet!

About: I currently have 2 dogs - 1 medium size dog and 1 large dog. I am very well-versed in caring for dogs of different sizes and personalities. I also grew up with cats, which makes me very familiar with cat lifestyles and personalities as well. I am a nurse and a mom, so you can be assured that I will take care of your pets with the utmost care and loving presence as I do for my family and my patients. I have a flexible job which allows me to make time to help with your furry friend. I like to be able to fill my day with the joy of dog and cat snuggles. N/A - This does not apply to me due to only being available for dog walking or singular pet visits. No home care services offered.

About: Availability: Mondays-Thursdays I’m typically only available after 5pm. This applies to some Fridays but not all. If youre not sure just ask! I’ve loved animals since the day I was born. I have plenty of animal experience working at doggy daycares, a veterinary clinic, and even bathing dogs. I’m aspiring to make a career out of animals potentially through grooming in the near future. I would love to get to know you and your beloved pet! Im currently on my way to becoming a groomer. I’ve always wanted to work with animals and I believe getting to know the community and provide services for animals will help me down the road with my career! I have two Boston terriers at home that I adore. They have spunky energetic personality’s so I know how to handle a little chaos. My life is very tailored to my love for animals and dogs especially so I’m confident I can provide proper love and care for yours as well!

About: Had cats all my life and dogs for last 12 years. Animals have a sixth sense about people and I'm one of those they seek out for rubs, cuddles, playtime, snacks and love... I'm not currently working so I'm available for any time through the remainder of this April within 30 miles of my town. Once I'm working full time again I will be available evenings closer to home and all times on the weekends. I'm also available for overnights at your location and can leave for work from anywhere. I will only be able to care for pets at your home as we currently have 2 cats (one who is very persnickedy) and a senior dog rescue who is going blind and is afraid of everyone.
