In both settings, I prioritize the well-being and safety of the pets. This involves monitoring their behavior and health, and promptly addressing any issues or concerns. I also maintain open and regular communication with the pet owners, providing updates on their pets' well-being and addressing any special requirements or requests they may have. Overall, my goal is to provide a loving and comfortable environment for pets, whether it is in my own home or in the homes of my clients.

About: As the mom of an 11 year old husky, I’ve had great experience with high energy dogs! Especially ones that need long walks! I can help implement basic leash training, exposure, and just love your furry friend like I would my own. I work a hybrid job, with three days a week at home. This means I can take your pup out for a lunch break, or if you’re running late from the office! I’m also available most weekends. I will always act with love and respect to your pet, like I would my own! I hope to become someone they look forward to seeing because they know it means they get to go out in the yard or on a nice walk.

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life, my family had some growing up and once I moved out I got 2 of my own. I’ve also watched many neighbors and friends dogs since i was young and feel more than comfortable taking them out, administering medicine, and loving on them! Fur babies are family and should be treated as such! And that’s exactly the kind of care I would show your fur baby. Dogs are creatures of habit, so it’s important for me to know what your routine looks like so I can try my best to keep it the same. It will be as if you’re not even gone! I work from home so my days are extremely flexible. Aside from occasional meetings and needing to administer my own dog his medication three times a day (6am, 2pm and 10pm) I have an open schedule to check in on your baby. If you were to bring your dog to me, they would be in a spacious little townhome with an open yard. All I ask is that your dog is friendly with other dogs, as I have 2 at home that would be there with us. One is a staffordshire terrier/husky mix, and the other is a border collie. They all would get plenty of walks and playtime together. If I were to drop in at your home, I would take whatever care necessary! What that looks like is up to you. Taking your dog on a walk, administering medicine, playing with them, whatever you and your pet need!

“Natasha is wonderful! She took care of our elderly dog, Amos, for 5 and a half days, making sure he had everything he needed to feel comfortable. We had complete peace of mind and were able to enjoy our vacation knowing Amos was well cared for. We would definitely book Natasha again!”

About: Hello! I love all types of pets and currently have two dogs of my own. I am a student at Virginia-Maryland college of veterinary medicine trying to earn some extra money by doing what I love, playing with pets. I have experience with all types of pets at varying sizes and personalities. During my undergraduate career, I raised two Seeing Eye Dogs and helped other raisers with training. During this time, I worked at a veterinary hospital, participated in animal specific events like vaccination clinics, and groomed. From healthy puppies and kittens to seniors who need medication, I have seen it all and am prepared to help with whatever your pet needs. I hope I can meet your fur babies and shower them with love while you’re away. I offer additional grooming services, ask about them if your interested. As someone who owns two dogs, pet care is a priority in my life. Both of my pups get plenty of one-on-one time as well as long walks and enrichment in the house. During the day, the pups are crated while I am at school, but if my boyfriend is off of work they get to run around and play. As soon as I get home the dogs get taken out and fed. Along with daily care, I take care of all of their grooming and medical needs as well. I currently live in apartment complex which has a dog play area for your furry friends to get plenty of exercise. There is also a trail connected to the complex which will be utilized for long walks and plenty of sniffing opportunities. Both of my pups are very friendly and would be happy to be your pet’s playmate during their stay.

About: I have worked at a humane society shelter as a volunteer for years in Michigan. I have fostered animals as well as helped dogs and cats give birth. I have experience with pet sitting and taking care of pets. I believe pets are our children. I have open flexibility and can give many references on how trust worthy i am as i owned a cleaning business here in nrv for 10 plus years licensed and insured. While at a clients home I will make sure the home stays cleaned up from the pet and goes on its normal scheduled walks and or care. While the pet is at my home it will have its own personal area that is kept well and it won't interact with our cats. Walks and playtime will be included.

“Sarah was so helpful, had great communication, and my dog took to her well. Would not hesitate to book again!”

About: I absolutely love dog and house sitting! I have house and dog sat for up to four dogs at once and been around dogs all my life, there is nothing I'd like to do more! I grew up around lots of dogs and started out my love for dogs early. I continued by getting my own dog and by house and dog sitting for friends and family. I continued to do this throughout college and into my adult life as a counselor, but expanded to house sitting for other people in the area with dogs. I have lots of experience with all sizes of dogs and am currently training my dog to walk on a leash and different manners. I've worked with dogs of all types of personalities and love them all!

About: I’ve grown a loving and interested heart towards dogs but have a love for lots of different pets! I’m great at caring for more than cats and dogs:) I am currently working part time as a nanny/ babysitter and am looking for more ways to spend time with all kinds of pets :) All pets I’ve had throughout my life have all freely roamed when appropriate and have been in a crate when needed:) Depending on the owners preferences I will do what they are comfortable with for their pets!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of different breeds and sizes since I was 17. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed, bathe and administer medications to their pets. I will ensure that the pet keeps their routine to the best of my ability if applicable. I always try to ensure the pet gets a walk at least once a day when I am watching them. I consider myself to be very patient and creative when working with pets. I work full-time but would be able to make home visits before work and any time after work. If your pet needs more visits during the day we can discuss our options. To ensure safety on walks I am very responsible to make sure your fur baby is leashed up before exiting the home or fenced area for walks around the neighborhood. When in a clients home I will ensure your fur babies safety by leashing up your dog in the home before going on walks and following your guidelines as requested. If any questions come up I will be calling or texting to ensure all requests are met in an appropriate manner.

About: I have owned dogs most of my life. Right now, I own a senior mini Aussie. I would love to help care for you fur baby. I am a stay at home mom to 3 teenagers. I have a very flexible schedule and able to meet the needs of your pet. I am very active so I can walk/jog with your dog if needed, or just play fetch with your dog. I am very comfortable around most dog breeds, big and small.
