About: I have owned a shih-tzu all my life. I have one now named Bruno. All of them have been well trained. Bruno competes in agility competitions. I am looking to help my community by offering dog walks and visits on the weekend. Life can be stressful and things come up. If you are like me and are single it is hard to find help when help is needed. I am a nurse and I work Monday thru Friday 830-5 pm. I can walk at night and on weekends. Thank you for your trust! I have a fenced in backyard. Crating is no problem. Lots of walks for little Bruno. Want to share the love for another fur baby.

Kelli is an amazing sitter for our 3 cats! She follows all of our detailed instructions well, is very communicative and quick to let us know of any issues or concerns, very thoughtful if any problem solving is needed, and sends us great thorough updates and lots of pictures so we can see how our babies are doing while we are away! We will continue to work with Kelli as long as she will have us during any of our pet care needs! We would highly recommend Kelli to anyone, especially those looking for folks who are caring and considerate of cats needs, which can be quite different than those of other furry friends.

About: Your dog or cat will be spoiled with love and attention from me. There is no greater joy than to be around animals. I have previous experience as a sitter for people who were going away on vacation, in between apartments, or in the hospital. I also have owned dogs almost my whole life (sadly I don’t have a pet right now as my dog of 16 years passed away.) I have owned a pit bull, greyhounds, and an Italian Greyhound. So I have experience with big and small dogs. I also will watch reptiles or rodents. I appreciate all of God's creatures 🥰 I am available for weekends and holidays. I will do boarding, house sitting, walks, drop in visits, or doggy day care. I will be able to spend all day with your pup on the weekends or holidays. I will treat your pet as if it were my own and I will make sure he/she is spoiled with cuddles and walks. There are no pets that live in my apartment, and I will only pet sit/doggy day care for only one dog/cat at a time (unless you have 2 pets of your own, I will watch them together.)

About: Registered nurse, empty nester, and devoted pet sitter. I spent many wonderful years with two beloved cockapoos who passed away a few years ago, and I still miss that daily doggy companionship. I now share my home with three cats and have a deep love for all animals. I’m a natural nurturer, longtime pet lover, and committed rescuer who treats every animal as family. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I work remotely two days a week, which allows me to be present, attentive, and flexible with feeding schedules, medications, playtime, and companionship. With my kids grown and out of the house, I truly enjoy the comfort and connection animals bring to my day. Having pets around adds purpose, routine, and warmth to my home, and I value the quiet companionship as much as they do. I care for pets by following their established routines as closely as possible, whether in my home or in a client's home. I focus on consistency, cleanliness, and calm interactions to reduce stress. I take breaks for walks, playtime, and quiet companionship. I pay close attention to behavior and appetite, communicate updates to owners, and treat each home and pet with respect. My goal is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away.

About: I am training to be a dog trainer so I could help train you dogs/cats. I don't have any dogs of my own right now but I would love to help others people and their pets. I have work most days but I would love to take care of pets when I have days off or after/before work. My schedule is changing so idk my exact hours I will be available everyday. I will only stay at your house with your pet if you need me to. I can walk them as long as it isn't too hot or too cold for them. When pet sitting I could help teach you pets how to do new tricks.

Justine took such great care of my little man. He is a high energy dog with a medically restricted diet. It is very important to adhere to his feeding instructions. She did an amazing job caring for him and went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable when he had some separation anxiety! Such a relief to have a dependable and trustworthy person to care for my boy!!!
