About: I've had pets all through late childhood and into adulthood. I currently live in an apartment that makes owning pets difficult, but I love nothing more than to snuggle up on the couch with a fluffy friend and a book. I've been able to get my "puppy fix" by petsitting for friends and family. I'm the one they call when they'll be out of town or working late to take care of their fluffy family member. I'm looking for more dogs and cats to add to my life long friend list. I currently work full time, 1 evening a week. I don't have any pets of my own to take care of, so i'm pretty flexible when it comes to taking care of others' pets. I love taking dogs for walks or hikes. I'm available to come and visit a pet to give companionship, meals, potty breaks, etc. I have experience with puppies as well as senior pets.

About: Ive been around dogs all my life, whether that be family dogs or neighbors dogs that I would visit all the time and watched grow up, I’ve had 3 dogs in the last 10 years and currently have a working breed puppy under 1 year old. I’ve been doing all of her training at home and have been teaching basic skills to my pets for 9+ years! I work full time from 7-2 Wednesday through Sunday, I’m available for sitting, walking, and if your dog is dog friendly I can take it and my puppy to any nearby dog park/ open field (with long leads) and let them burn off some steam! Have any weird quirks when it comes to your beloved pet? I’ll gladly work with anything you may throw at me! I’d love to help keep your pet entertained and exercised whenever you need a helping hand! I have a couple of snuffle mats I can bring by if your pup needs a little extra enrichment!

About: I have almost a lifetime of experience with animals of all ages. Im patient with high energy puppies and calming to older and wiser animals. I love to bond with dogs over long walks and play sessions. I love spending time outdoors and with the company of a dog, the time becomes even more meaningful. Caring and visiting pets had always been a huge mood booster for me. When I am spending time with your pets we will be playing, taking walks or cuddling as much as possible. I will take the time to understand the needs your pet might be communicating.

“Jessica saved me by being able to look in on our boys on a really short notice. Thank you Jessica! Communication was great and she let us know each time when she was on her way to check in on the dogs. Shortly after that she sent us pictures of them each time. It was a comfort knowing that Jessica was taking such good care of them while we were away. I will definitely use Jessica again in the future.”

“Chris came to our rescue with little notice, as we had a family event enter our lives, and I can’t thank Chris enough. Our introductory meeting with Tricksy, our Shar Pei, went very smoothly as Chris was confident and open around her. She also listened carefully to Tricksy’s personal habits and idiosyncrasies. Wee felt positive about having the drop-on visits and Chris kept us well informed with messages and photos. Can’t thank her enough for helping us through this time of grieving for my family.”

“I was really nervous leaving my 9 month month old kitty and 18 year old cat at home for 5 days while i was gone, but Rachel was such a wonderful sitter, and provided me with wonderful photos and thoughtful, detailed updates while i was gone that really put my mind at ease knowing they were in such good hands. Rachel really went above and beyond to make sure my cats were well taken care of, played with and happy. She even brought a few toys and treats for them to play with! And my 18 year old cat needed a topical medicine in her ear each day, which Rachel applied to her no problem… meaning my cat really trusts her. I almost think my cats were a little disappointed to see me instead of Rachel opening the door when i got home yesterday haha! Thanks so much Rachel - we will absolutely be in touch the next time we need a sitter!! I highly recommend her :)”

“Ayla was a great sitter for my dog and senior cat for a long weekend. She came for an interview before the booking where she was pleasant to talk to and my dog warmed up to her a bit. During the booking, she took great care of our babies. Her communication was excellent. Will definitely book again.”

I am also a kennel attendant to all animals. I do some basic training for dogs, I can do it on walks so they learn basic skills even when there are people out or when dogs are out. I could help with that if needed. If the dog has a higher level of energy we will go for longer walks or runs. We will play with toys for a long period of time to tire him/her out. I work well with any kind of breed. Small, medium or large dogs. If you need the help I’ll be there to assist I’m currently working full time at a daycare but I normally have an hour to hour an half before having to go back to work to let out the dog(s). I will let the family know what time I have let them out and fed them.

I have recently retired from the healthcare field, have an open availability and I'm very flexible. My priority is to be there for you and your pets needs!
