About: My name is Jozlyne, and I absolutely adore animals. I graduated with my Bachelors in Music Therapy at the University of Kansas and completed an internship at Arkansas Children’s Hospital! I grew up surrounded by animals and have always been passionate about caring for them. Over the past eight years I’ve had the privilege of caring for a multitude of different animals with different needs. I have experience with cats, dogs, several reptiles/amphibians, fish, rodents, other small mammals, birds, farm animals (pigs/chickens/etc.), raccoons, and even bob cats. I’ve cared for young healthy animal friends and senior pets . I am happy to play and be active or cuddle with your sweet friends but I also know when to give an animal their space. I know it can be hard to leave your sweet babies, so I make sure to maintain prompt communication, ask questions when needed, and send pictures! My schedule is currently fairly open. I have appointments and small commitments throughout the week, but nothing that would take more than a few hours at most. Before accepting a booking I communicate my exact schedule to ensure that there is clear communication and expectations are understood for both parties. I do not offer services in my home; however, while I am visiting or staying at another residence, I pride myself on communication and maintaining respect for your pets and your space.
About: I have years of experience in handling different types of dogs. I have a friendly and calm demeanor that helps them feel comfortable with me as well. I spent years volunteering at the local shelter as a teenager. I've sat for friends, family, and neighbors over the years. I've had several pets over the years, and I am currently a rescue mom. I keep my availability updated and only take a limited number of bookings at a time to ensure each pet family gets my full attention. Please let me know if your pet has any special needs, medications, dietary requirements, or routines you’d like followed. I’m comfortable handling more detailed care instructions and will always prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort.

I have off on mondays and Wednesday every week and my shifts are usually 4-6 hrs and sometimes 8 hrs Also my schedule changes every week (so if your pet needs to be let out every 4 or hours I will need probably a 2 week notice before the booking would start!) I have availability during the week and weekends for long or short bookings! Love watching dogs and cats and spending time with them I watch them in their home. I take them for walks and let them outside to use the bathroom. I give them food and fresh water for cats and dogs I also let them run and play in their backyards

Other than the days I will be away, I’m completely available for you but I would love to help you when I’m around! I’m a college student with a pretty flexible schedule, and I’d love to get to meet you and your pets! My fur babies have quite a bit of acreage to roam and swim in! I can be firm to call them and gain their attention if needed, and adore getting to love on them and reward them if they are quick to be obedient. If your pets have any accidents I will not hesitate to get that cleaned up for you:) accidents happen.

I am available for all services I have listed any day of the week! I can’t wait to build relationships with you and your babies I have a 6ft wooden fenced in back yard, along with three friendly pups of my own. If for any reason they do not get along or if you wish for your babies to be separate from mine, my backyard is separated into two areas, so I can close one gate door and the pups will not see each other !
About: I have had dogs since I was 15 years old. I have taken care of them myself in house basically my whole life. I love cuddling with my dogs and don't mind them laying beside me on furniture. I have trained lots of puppies potty duties and crate training. I have had a bunch of senior dogs. I am a nurse by trade, so if your fur baby needs meds, I am definitely the one who can give it to them! I can't wait to meet your baby! I am currently retired nurse who stays home basically all the time. If I do have to leave, it is usually only for a couple of hours. I do not have a fully fenced yard, but I do have a fenced area behind the house that I can put the fur babies in to do their business and get some exercise. If they do not need to be contained, I have 5 acres that they can run and play.

About: I’ve loved animals my whole life and have always had pets of my own. While I haven’t worked professionally with animals before, I have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and other pets. I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life, along with 3 hamsters and a bunny. I currently have 4 dogs and 1 cat, so I’m very comfortable caring for multiple animals with different personalities and needs. I can feed, walk, bathe, play with, and give plenty of attention to your pets, and I’m happy to follow whatever routine or instructions you have for them. I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets with someone you trust. I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and make sure they get lots of love, attention, and care while you’re away! 🐶🐱💕 I’m an independent contractor with Walmart Spark, which gives me a very flexible schedule. Since I’m not tied to a typical 9–5 work schedule, I’m able to work around your schedule and be available when you need me. I can be flexible with drop-off and pick-up times, walks, and visits, and I’m happy to work with you to find a schedule that works best for both of us! I currently only offer pet care in the client’s home. I think pets are usually most comfortable staying in their own environment, where they know their surroundings and can stick to their normal routine. I’m happy to care for all kinds of pets and will follow your instructions to make sure they get everything they need, whether that’s feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, litter box care, or anything else. I’ll also keep you updated while you’re away so you know your pets are doing well!
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life. I’ve taken care of several dogs of varying age, size, energy levels, and shyness. Also have experience with chickens, goats, and pigs and how dogs interact with changes in their environment. I’m free most days, everything that I need to do is on my computer and can be done anytime and anywhere. I’m flexible and can fit into most clients’ schedule. I let them out when they want out, play when they want to play, and clean up any mess so that the client comes back to a just as clean or cleaner house and pets
About: I have been petting sitting for multiple years now, as well as growing up in an animal-loving home. I also have experience with giving fur friends medication when necessary. I am currently a college student, and have the mid-afternoons free to come check in on your furry friends! I also work part-time and work mostly at night during weekdays. I get off around 10:00, and can come swing by after work or stay the night. My weekends are fully open, so any time of day works for me to come spend some time with your pets!!

About: Animals, specifically dogs and cats, have always been a key part of my life. I have a black lab of my own named Indy and she is my pride and joy. There are also several other dogs and cats within my inner circle that I absolutely adore. I know how important it is to have someone you genuinely trust caring for your baby, and I would treat yours with the same love and attention I give my own. I’m dependable and comfortable following even the most elaborate routine, whether that includes walks, feeding schedules, playtime, medications, recovery restrictions, or lots of extra cuddles. I also have several close friends and family members who work in veterinary medicine, including my cousin who is currently in her third year of veterinary school and is always just a phone call away. My schedule is extremely flexible, which allows me to easily fit pet care into my daily routine. I’m able to adjust my schedule around your pet’s needs rather than expecting their routine to fit around mine. Pets in my home will be treated just like my own—with lots of love, attention, and plenty of cuddles! The dogs in my home are very friendly and accustomed to being around other animals. I want your pet to feel as comfortable and at home as possible while they’re with me. Pets are welcome on the furniture and beds in my home, especially if that’s what they’re used to at home. If your pet is crate-trained or you prefer them to be crated at certain times, I also have a kennel available and am happy to follow their normal routine.

About: I have taken care of dogs for over 10 years. My first baby was Kramer (cockapoo) and now I have a big boy named Koda (Golden Retriever). I love all pets, but specifically dogs. They are so loving, loyal, and kind, and I love to give that to them in return. I work as a professor at an university and usually done around 1pm each day, so I can let the babies out for their afternoon/evening potty breaks. I am also free for the summer due to school letting out, so I will have way more free time from May until the middle of August to give your baby attention any time of day.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
