About: Whether it’s a high-energy pup needing long walks or a senior pet requiring medication, I am comfortable, patient, and prepared. I offer boarding, drop-in visits, and house sitting for both dogs and cats. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and fun experience while you are away. I work from home, so your baby will get nonstop attention and cuddles! I do have a fenced in yard and do not require dogs to be crate trained. I always prioritize your dog’s specific needs—whether that’s gentle walks for seniors or active play for puppies. I work from home/have a flexible schedule, allowing me to be present with your dog/cat. I treat every pet like they are part of my family and always focus on both your pet’s mental and physical exercise. I ensure a safe environment by keeping fresh water available, maintaining a clean space, and checking that all gates are secure. I do allow your pet to sleep on my bed unless instructed otherwise. I send photo/video updates and follow your feeding/medication instructions as well as any others given. I do allow meet & greets at my house if preferred!

“I hired Antonio to take care of my cat. He was flexible and responsive and responsible. I could not have asked for more from a pet sitter. Highly recommended!”

About: I've taken care of all kinds of dogs since I was 15. My neighbors, friends, and family have entrusted me to take care of, walk, and feed their dogs if they need to leave them at home. I've worked at a dog day care and boarding kennel for three years, where I'm in charge of taking care of multiple dogs of various sizes and breeds at a time. This involves cleaning their rooms, feeding them, walking, and playing with them so they receive enrichment while being away from home. I'm currently a full-time graduate student. Outside of school, I have plenty of free time to play with your pups! I'm available for drop-ins or walks on Wednesdays, Fridays, and the weekends. I prioritize your pet's safety, comfort, and routine like they're my own. For drop-in visits, I will follow your instructions closely, including feeding, potty breaks, playtimes, and any other specific needs. I'll make sure all doors and gates are safely closed, or put your pup back in their crate if requested. During dog walks, I will keep them securely leashed at all times and use safe handling practices. I will provide updates to keep you informed about how your dog is doing during each visit.

About: Hello! I’ve been trusted by many people in my circle to care for their pets for extended periods of time and also just for potty breaks and walks! Wether your pet just needs some cuddles and social time for a couple hours while you’re at work or a long walk through the park before you get home I’m more than happy to help! I work seasonally in the summer months and pick up occasional substitute teaching jobs in the fall and winter so my schedule is highly flexible and open for dog walking/pet sitting! I prefer if there is a list of instructions for me so I can make sure your pet is getting the same care and attention they would normally receive from you! If there are any behavioral or physical limitations regarding your pet just let me know and I will be happy to accommodate.

About: I currently work at the Newport Navy Base at All Paws On Deck doggie day care. I have been there for about a year and am currently one of the lead staff members there taking care of the dogs. I have learned so much on dog behavior and safety. Since working there it has ignited an interest to become a dog trainer. The joy that dogs bring to my life has been so rewarding and I love every minute of my job and being with all my furry friends. I have grown up with always having a dog in my life and had parents that instilled responsibility that came along with it. I have watched and been responsible for friends and neighbors dogs when a helping hand is needed. My up bringing with always having a dog was that they are not just an animal but another member of the family and have to be treated as such. I have been very lucky to have had grown up with amazing dogs. I have rescued 2 beautiful greyhounds that were former racers in Florida. This particular breed is my passion due to the challenges it gives to teach them how to transition from the track to home life. This breed typically has never been inside a home and needs to be taught everything! Stairs, Windows, glass sliding doors, furniture, a yard, trust, and having her own toys and bed. This has taught me so much on how to relate to the dog and learn how they see life. My life currently when im not working is spending time with my family and enjoying the "island life" in Portsmouth. It is my husband and I along with our two boys and Anita (my greyhound). I work part time at the doggie day care. My availability time is flexible. I work half days so im available in the morning or afternoon depending on the day. I will respect the clients home and their pets boundaries and needs. I see it as entering their safe space and would not want them to feel that I am there to change that or threaten that.

About: I don't have any fancy certifications, just a true love for animals. I genuinely enjoy hanging out with pets and making sure they feel happy. I work full-time but I am available most days before 7:30 AM and after 4:30 PM, except for W & F. Let's coordinate a schedule that works! I'll visit your home everyday to feed your pets, refresh their water, take them for walks, and spend quality time playing and keeping them company.

About: Knowing your pets are a part of your family, its my intentions to provide an opportunity for your pet to at its best. That means learning your pets personality and needs. My Career also entails skills with animals care specifically for sick animals, not that I am veterinary doctor, meaning I help deal with acute health issues. Being a good listener and observer due to my Scientific Career it's only a matter of time before you realize that you pet just might be excited to visit, and even more happier to return to you. Thanks for asking. My work has very set routine. Therefore when I start a project I know the days that I am available throughout its completion due to having to let processes develop on their own. So I am able to designate time for pet sitting in a routine manner and flexible manner. If I know my clients needs, I can adjust my work accordingly. Thanks for asking. My apartment is definitely animal friendly, with only on carpeted room. I will always notify the owner or any health issue, and with coordinate with the owner emergency protocols. Outside, there is a waterfront your pet can visit for walks, large yards that the pet can explore, and even an enclosed area where your pet can be unleashed so they can get a chance to roam free if ever necessary. As far as individual animal routines for food and walks are concerned, I would only take on a job if I was able to provide the animal with its precise schedule. I find animals are more confident when they know what to expect. Thanks for asking.

About: Owned dogs entire life, have trained rescue dogs, and have experience in providing senior care for dogs. My dog is diabetic so I also have experience with insulin injections and oral medication. I have a fenced in backyard and many toys for dogs to play with! I am able to board and care for dogs throughout the weeks due to flexibility in my schedule. I am also willing to let your dog out when available, and help in any way I can! I will make sure the dogs are loved and shown affection, played with, walked, and taken care of as needed. I will always make sure the dogs are happy, have water at all times, toys to play with, etc.
