About: I have pet sat for friends and family throughout the years and have developed a special love for it. I have skills administering meds to cats and have three cats of my own! I am a current student, however, with summer coming up, my schedule is completely open! I would love to work with you to figure out the best way to ensure your pet has all the attention they need! I treat every pet as my own and every home as my own, with the upmost respect and care for everything in it! If there are any specific house rules, I would be glad to accommodate them!

“Brady absolutely loves his walks with Jay! He looks so happy when he gets picked up, his tail wags away as they go for walks. My pooch is a "hard walker", he pulls & and at times he has reactivity issues towards other dogs, but Jay seems to know how to handle him. They definitely have a connection! Jay also has an easy going personality & he's been trust worthy regarding the schedule. Super happy to have discovered Jay as Brady's dog walker!🐾😊”

About: Hi! I’m an absolute dog lover with many years of experience caring for tiny lap dogs to oversized cuddle monsters. I understand that every fur baby has unique needs, routines, and personalities, and I always take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’ve been caring for dogs for 6 years, I’m experienced with walks, feeding, playtime, puppy energy, senior dogs who take life at a bit slower pace who may or may not need a diaper. I treat every pet like they’re my own and know how important it is to have someone you can fully trust while you’re away. I’m happy to provide updates, photos, and plenty of tail wags during every visit or walk! I currently work for a nonprofit organization during the week until 5:00p.m., so I'm available weekdays anytime after that. I'm flexible and available all day on Saturdays and Sundays. Also, I'm available for overnight stays in your home on Fridays and Saturdays. I treat every pet like they are my own and make it my priority to keep them safe, happy and loved while you're away. Whether we're out on walks or hanging out at home, I pay close attention to their needs, routines, and personalities. From endless zoomies to professional couch potatoes. I always follow care instructions, keep walks safe and fun, and make sure your home is treated with respect. You can count on plenty of love, playtime, belly rubs and updates so you can relax knowing your fur baby is in caring and dependable hands.

“Pili was amazing. Reliable, dependable, and took great care of my dog. Willing to go the extra mile if needed.”
