Dog Sitting Providence

About: From childhood, my heart has held immense compassion and love for all furry friends!🤍🥹 I started out as a bather at a grooming facility at 14. This helped me realize the joy that I receive working with animals! I then took a program focusing on veterinary medicine, which sparked a new outlet for me to improve the lives of pets, and care for them in a different way🦋. I also worked for a veterinary emergency room in MA, where I worked alongside the amazing technicians, saving the lives of critical patients 🩺. I also worked for pet clinic at a nonprofit humane society, doing free vaccine clinics, taking in puppies & kittens that were left in harmful conditions, and giving them a chance at a beautiful and safe life with their forever family🩷. I also worked as a veterinary technician at a local animal hospital, seeing & providing veterinary care for all kinds of amazing creatures like guinea pigs, rabbits, chickens, you name it!🐾 With a patience heart, and extensive experience with animals that require special attention due to medical conditions, behavioral challenges, and all their special little quirks that make them unique, you can ensure that with me, your pet is loved abundantly and in a safe environment! 🐕 🐓🐾🤍🐈‍⬛ 🦜 🐹 🩵 I’m currently pet sitting full time so my schedule is very open! I have a very flexible and broad schedule, with lots of time to care for your beloved pets!🩷🐾 As a diligent pet sitter, your instructions and regimens for your pet will be followed in order to mimic the amazing and unique care you give to your pet when you’re home! It can be overwhelming or difficult for your pet to acclimate to a new person in their environment. My approach is to make them feel like they are still safe, still loved, and still getting the same meals, treats, and exercise they get when you’re home. Feeding them at the same times, making sure they get those rewards when they do a great job, and any special instructions you provide will be followed with care.

About: I’ve had extensive experience taking care of animals since I was a young child, regularly responsible for walking animals, and I’m the type of guy who their friends have to say not to rile up the dog because I enjoy playing! I also am a very active person, usually topping off at about 10 thousand - 15 thousand steps a day, ensuring that your pet will get as long of a walk as they need to be the best version of themselves. I currently work from home doing cybersecurity, giving me the flexibility to do house visits or walks in my area. Additionally, I either jog or walk 5-6 miles a day, allowing to ensure that your animal gets the proper exercise needed. I have the demeanor and experience to handle animals of all personality types, if they’re playful I can match their energy. If they are a calm and gentle loving animal? I can match their energy.

About: Hi! I’m Lauren. I’m an experienced pet owner and sitter who would love to take care of your furry friend. I currently have two corgis and one cat of my own, so I know how important it is to make sure pets feel safe, happy, and cared for. I have hands-on experience with dog training and walking, and I’m comfortable with all breeds—big or small. I also love cats and have extensive experience with feeding, litter box care, and giving them the attention they deserve. I always provide photos and updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. When I’m not watching pets, a am a project director at a hospital and work from home full-time. I enjoy spending time outdoors, exploring new places, and relaxing with my family. I would love the chance to care for your pet as if they were my own! I currently work remotely, so I have a very flexible schedule for walking or drop ins. Your dog will be safely taken care of, and have plenty of breaks! All dogs will be kept on leash for everyone’s safety. We can discuss specific needs for the visit and tailor it to fit your preferences!

About: I truly love dogs. I grew up with cocker spaniels, but also love bigger dogs like labradors and well-trained German Shepherds. I currently am a dog mom to a stubborn pittie mix and have done formal training classes and one on ones. I love any dog who is well trained and friendly. I would love to help care for and nurture your dog while you are away. I am a dog mom and care for my baby every day with walks or playtime. We often can be seen walking all over the East Side. I would like to go to your house to care for your dog. I typically try and get a sense of how your dog likes to interact with visitors, e.g. games, walks, cuddles, etc.

About: What sets me apart is that I genuinely love spending time with animals and treat every pet as if they were my own. I grew up with a family dog, which gave me years of hands-on experience with daily walks, feeding, playtime, and providing lots of love and attention. In addition to caring for my family dog, I have experience pet sitting for both dogs and cats. I understand the importance of following each pet’s routine, respecting their unique personality, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. While I’m not a professional trainer, I’m patient, dependable, and committed to providing attentive care, regular updates, and plenty of affection so you can have complete peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. During the school year, I’m a teacher, so I’m available on weekdays after 5:00 p.m. and throughout the weekends. During the summer, I have significantly more flexibility and availability, allowing me to dedicate even more time to pet care. No matter the season, I’m committed to providing reliable, attentive care and making sure every pet receives the exercise, attention, and affection they deserve. I always communicate with owners and follow each pet’s routine to help them feel comfortable and cared for. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, my priority is making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while maintaining their normal routine. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions for feeding, walks, medications (if applicable), and any other special care their pet may need. In my home, pets have a comfortable environment with a spacious living room for playtime and a separate room where they can relax or have quiet time if needed. My apartment also has convenient dog relief areas, and there are several nearby parks where dogs can enjoy safe walks, exercise, and fresh air. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, and regular updates with photos so owners can feel confident that their pets are happy and well cared for while they’re away. My goal is to make every pet feel at home and every owner feel at ease.

About: I’ve taken care of many dogs including my own for over 10yrs. I am an animal lover with experience caring for many different dog breeds and sizes. I can handle puppies who may have higher energy needs and and older dogs who may need a bit of a slower pace. Overall, I can adapt to what best suits your pet. I am working full time and work a rotating scheduling so I am available at times that other people may not be. Can work with you around times! In your home I will follow whatever rules you set and always make sure everything is secure prior to leaving after the dog walk is complete. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for your pet, whether I am visiting them in your home or walking them in the neighborhood. On walks, I watch closely for traffic, other pets/animals, and tailor walks to your dog's age/needs. I will also keep your home clean by wiping paws after walks.

About: Woof! Meow! Don’t be off put by my headline - I am a big fan of both dogs and cats. I love walking dogs and am also available to housesit.

About: My name is Breanne! I own a hound/ GSD, two cats, and I am fostering a lab! I used Rover in a pinch one day so I know how important this job is and how much of a lifesaver it can be! I would love the opportunity to help someone else in a pinch and make a dog happy at the same time. I am very active, I run trails, walk, hike, I can take your dog to the park, hiking, whatever you need. I have experience with various harness tools, etc.. as my dog is a working dog and we are constantly training. I love spending time with pets in all settings and I’m happy to help in any way I can! I also volunteer at a rescue in my spare time and coordinate spay and neuter services. I currently telework three days a week and have the flexibility to increase this when necessary. I work Monday - Friday 8-3:30pm and can work from anywhere. I believe in maintaining a pets routine to the best of my ability. Having your best friend away can be stressful enough, I do my best to ease your pet’s discomfort as much as possible.

About: I have spent my life with dogs and cats, caring for and raising them, and loved every minute. I would love to run with your dog or lounge with your cat! I will be working 8-5 every week day, but would happily walk or play with your pets any time around that. I am also available weekends. I will not be able to have pets in my home, but I will happily visit yours! I will keep them in your yard if you wish, and always use a lease. Whatever is best!

About: As a pet owner myself, I value honest and reliable care, not only for owners, but the animals themselves. I have experience providing care for a diverse set of pets, including dogs, cats, birds, and other small animals. I aim to build trust with those for whom I provide care. I am comfortable with administering medication and attending to specific needs. Most importantly, I treat others pets with the same love and attentiveness as I do my own. I work full-time during the week, though I have more flexibility on Tuesdays and Thursdays when I work from home. I am available for drop-in visits any day of the week. I work with my clients to meet their needs and go out of my way to do so. When providing care in an owner’s home, I aim to leave pets and the home in a state that the owner would be happy to return to. I respect the boundaries of owners and pets alike so that I can build a relationship of trust, communication, and reliability. I hope to show my dedication to proper pet care through my actions.

About: I've had a dog in my life for the major majority of it. I've had 2 Shitzus, a German Shephard and an Akita. Quite the range. I traveled across the country with an Akita and that was such a great experience. I am very patient by nature and will care for you furry friend and give them all my attention and love. I have a somewhat flexible schedule. There are 3, sometimes 4 days a week where I’d be away for 6-7 hours. I like to be as transparent on everything. I’m not concerned about the dog having an accident in the house, it’s more of making sure they won’t be overly stressed out or anxious at that amount of time. I have a very secure fenced in yard that your pet will enjoy. There is a park directly across the street as well and I will also walk your dog around the Elmhurst neighborhood. I have a modest sized home with hardwood floors. Your pup is allowed on the furniture if its ok with you. A tired dog is a happy dog and I plan to play with your dog inside and outside the home. Your dog(s) or cat(s) will be my top priority. Other than work a few days a week which is stated above I’d be spending plenty of time playing and relaxing with your fur babies. I have a fenced in yard and live in a safe neighborhood. I have outdoor camera security system as well. I will take great care of your pet.
