About: I regularly pet sit for friends and family. 1-3 weeks mostly; but can do just a few days as well. Private home with a fenced yard. Dog lead in yard is available. I love to walk! Short or long walks are all fine with me. I’ve been around dogs my entire life. I’ve owned 3 in my adult life. I even fostered a dog for 9 months! It was hard to give her up; but she went to a loving home. I’m honest and trustworthy and dogs just make every day better! I work a pretty flexible schedule. I’m retired so I have lots of time. If your dog likes car rides and public parks…awesome! There’s also 2-3 dog parks not far from my house I have a fenced in yard that's about 70 yards deep. I also have a 30 yard lead that is concreted in (no fear of them breaking lose. There are sidewalks all around my neighborhood for safe walks on a leash. The closest dog park is about 2 miles from my house. I live alone.
About: Growing up, I always had a dog in my house. I have had 3 Labrador Retrievers throughout my life and have absolutely fallen in love with all dogs! I babysit my neighbor’s dogs all the time and enjoy every minute of it. I treat any dog like family and give them all the cuddles they need! I work full time but have a flexible job that I can work from home if need be! I take my dogs on daily morning walks and evening walks! If I work from home midday walks are part of our routine. Fenced in yard. Ability to work from home. 24/7 care and love! Pets allowed on any and all furniture! It’s a true dog’s world and I’m just living in it.

About: "With over a decade of hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of pets, from playful puppies and senior cats to Guinea pigs and hamsters. I bring a deep understanding of animal behavior, nutrition, and health. My compassionate approach ensures every pet feels safe, loved, and well-cared for, while providing peace of mind to their owners." As a self employed person my schedule is generally flexible. I am available most days and I wouldn’t accept a service that I am unable to commit to if my work interrupts. If planned in advance, I can create my schedules around your needs. As a dog walker I will take whichever route is best for your pet. If they prefer a certain direction I will happily take them. If they are curious and want to go somewhere else, I’m good for that too! As a sitter in your home I will always do my best to stick to any routines they are familiar with to ease any anxiety of their humans not being home for them. I’m happy to sit or check on cats if owners are traveling. I know most cats are okay with a clean litter box and food. They are certainly self sufficient little critters. I have 5 in my own home and care for 15 feral fur babies that we attempt to spay or neuter when we can catch them and release them back to our yard where they know food is always available. They also have warm homes for those cold winter nights.
About: I have grown up with dogs an cats, I currently have a 1 year old puppy and 3 cats. Often times I end up dog sitting/ housesitting for my babysitting families and figured I should put myself out there for animal care too! I have plenty of love to go around!

I can handle large dogs and small dogs without issue, I love all dogs equally!! I was taught all the signs of dogs so I know how to read their emotions and adjust accordingly. I love to play with dogs and cuddle as well when they are up for it. My family has had a dog my whole life so I have lots of care experience. I work full time during the week (7-3), so after and before work is when I can walk or let out dogs. My weekends are completely free for boarding, walking, and sitting! I can also let dogs out on my lunch break depending on distance. I have 1 dog in my home, he is a sweetheart so no worries there! I also live alone so no issues with roomates or space. I have a yard and a dog park in my neighborhood, but it is not fenced. I pay strict attention to dogs I am watching and make sure they are always happy and healthy, I do not take my eyes off of them! I walk dogs focused with no music or phone distraction to make sure I am ready for anything, and I have handled aggressive dogs often and can adjust when needed. I always clean up if accidents happen, and I leave places better than I found them, always!

About: After a break from pet sitting, I have decided to start taking bookings again for walking/drop-in visits. I am also open to overnight stays at your home depending on circumstances. If an overnight occurs I will arrive to the home around 8:30PM and stay until 8:30AM, I will also provide a mid-day drop-in visit. Throughout the day though I will return to my own home to work. I have always had a soft spot for animals, specially for dogs. They bring me such happiness and I honestly feel like we are not deserving of the love that they give! Dogs have brought so much joy to my life, especially my own pups. I have great anxiety when I have to Board or find care for my own dogs, that I thought I might be able to bring comfort and compassionate care to others who may feel the same way! I am comfortable with breeds of all sizes and am also comfortable with both puppies and seniors. I will not Board in my home unaltered males. I work from home which allows me to constantly be present for the needs of my own animals and the needs of pups that are visiting my home. I have a large fenced in yard in a safe community. Visiting pups will be treated like family and will be loved on and treated like one of our own.
