Want a photo of your pet while you’re away? I already sent one 10 minutes ago :) I am a full-time college student, but my daily availability is still pretty flexible. I have breaks in between classes, and I usually get done pretty early each day. I am very attentive to all the pets that I care for. While I am not available to watch pets in my own home (it is a rental), I am very clean and respectful of other peoples homes. When I am pet sitting, the animals are my top priority. My pet care reflects this priority in every way. I am happy to meet the specific needs of you and your pet!

About: I’ve always loved animals! And all my life I’ve always done something with them. Whether it be in boarding and daycare facilities-grooming-mobile grooming-volunteering at shelters all of it! I do have a job! But i always find times to care for those who trust me enough to give it. I’ve been doing this for many years so finding a just right schedule has been easier to manage! I personally like to schedule meet and greets before any overnight stay,dog walking,check ins ! Bevause that levels a ground of calmness and knowledge for the pet rather then showing up out of the blue. I always follow strict feeding protocols and make sure to communicate with the owners about how they expect things to be done for there furry friends.
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life. From age 18 to present day I’ve always had a dog so I am well adverse in reading their body language and understanding their needs. I have a job that allows me to customize my schedule so I am capable of making a schedule to fit your animals needs whether it be day or night! Personally I feed my dog according to his feeding schedule and look for signs that he needs to go outside to use the bathroom. If your dog or cat requires a specific diet and time for feeding, I’ll be more than happy to follow the guidelines that you have set to ensure your animals are happy and healthy. As far as potty breaks go, I will use a leash for your dog if there’s not a gated area for them to use the bathroom, if they use pee-pads or litter I have no problem handling that either.
About: I've taken care of pets as long as I can remember! I've always been a pets owner myself, but have also fostered dogs for friends, pet sit for family and friends, and fostered cats for local non-profit organizations throughout my adult life. Some of those animals have had special medical needs, as well. I have open availability to care for your pet and keep you updated along the way! No schedule restrictions means your pets gets care any time of day or night! I have over an acre of open area for walks and an open to pets environment inside my home, but can also offer crate care, if needed for less social dogs.
About: I have had experience working on a farm with a variety of animals. I also worked at a boarding resort for dogs and cats where I followed feeding schedules, worked with fearful and aggressive dogs and cats, and played with animals residing there. My major in college is animal science with a concentration of pre-veterinarian. I am currently in college taking animal science courses and working around animals weekly. I have pets of my own as well and watch them on a day to day basis. I make sure to build a foundation of trust with the animal before anything. I want your pet to feel comfortable and safe around me and that involves taking things slow and making sure they are comfortable with me. I will feed and water your pet, take them on walks and play with them and make sure they get the exercise needed. Not only that but it depends on how the owner prefers things. If an animal is injured, I won’t over exercise them and do small things like taking a few steps to walk. As long as your pet feels comfortable, safe, and happy!
