About: I have had cats and dogs my whole life, ranging from large German shepherds to 5lb chihuahuas. I genuinely care for the well being of all animals! I have plenty of patience and a huge heart for animals. As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible daily schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention and care. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, with time for walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, and lots of love throughout the day. I’m home most of the day, so your pet won’t be left alone for long periods and will have plenty of companionship while you’re away! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I follow their normal routines, pay close attention to their behavior, and make sure they have a safe and comfortable environment. I’m careful with doors, feeding, medications, and anything else specific to their care. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

About: I have been a pet appreciation magnet as long as I can remember. Even when I am not aiming for the attention, the pets gravitate my way, and i have scritches and belly rubs for them all. I have a rescue of my own for 6+ years now, bichon/poodle mix. Though he had a traumatic start before me, he has adjusted well and is a cuddle bug, and getting better with his socialization with new doggos. I have been a dog sitter for friends over the last 8+ years, when they go on trips. I have experience in minor training, like sit/stay/leash leading, for a few breeds up to 50-70 lbs (no certificates, just repitition and patience). Positive recognition of good behavior and moderate activity (to remedy the bad behavior) when you need me are what I hope to share with your furry family members. I am currently working part-time, so i can set up a schedule of regular pet attention care during part day time hours. Currently I have weekends free if weekend care is requested, though this may change if requests are light. I am working on my house to be able to provide overnight care in the future, making it care friendly for additional furry friends. I have a fenced in, good size yard, and a medium size fur baby of my own to greet stay over friends, though my house needs a little more time for prep before we are ready. I am happy to do drop-ins and day or eve walks at your home, and follow any/all your rules. I respect your needs and want to make sure your fur baby is safe and happy in my care. I keep trainer treats in my car, if we need to practice a few basic commands, as well as water and other care essentials. I have a back seat hammock/cover for the pet's safety when traveling (as needed). I also have a med to large dog kennel I can put in the way back of my SUV if that is preferred for safety and security.

About: I have lifelong experience caring for a wide variety of pets, including both dogs and cats of all ages. My background includes everything from puppy care and training support to senior cat care with special attention to comfort and routine. As a current dog and cat owner, I understand the importance of reliable, compassionate care and maintaining consistency with each pet's needs. My goal is to provide dependable service and ensure every pet feels secure and well-cared for in their owner's absence. My schedule is currently very flexible, so I can care for your pets at the time that suits them (and you) best and maintains their routine. When caring for pets in a client's home, I prioritize their safety, comfort, and routine. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medication, and preferred walking routes. I take time to build trust with each pet, keeping their environment calm and familiar. I also maintain clear communication with owners, providing regular updates and photos for peace of mind. My goal is to ensure every pet feels secure and cared for, and that you feel confident they're in good hands while you're away.

About: I have a love for all animals, but especially for dogs. I have experience with both dog day care and dog walking services. I have taken care of my own dogs over the years, both big and small, and would love to have an opportunity to care for others. I would love to sit for other kinds of pets as well. I have had a number of pets over the years, including cats, fish, birds, turtles, hamsters and geckos. I live right near the airport, so drop off and pickup around your vacation is super convenient! I am available all day every day to care for your pet. Spending quality time with animals is therapeutic for me. I love taking the time each day to care for them and play with them. I love exercising with pets and making sure they are happy and healthy. I prefer to spend at least an hour with each pet. Taking the time to play, exercise, and eat good food is essential! I love to make sure a pet's quality of life is just as good as mine.

About: I love dogs. I have been dog sitting for numerous years; started with family and expanded to friends. Watching animals has been an experience that I love to do. I do work full time as a teacher, but I make sure to give the dogs the love and care they need. I love to go on long walks with the dogs and play. I always try to make sure the dog know just how loved they are and I always take pictures to send to the owners so you will know how your dog is doing when with me. I started out watching my sister's two dogs and my aunt's one dog at their house or my townhouse. I have also taken care of two dogs and five cats in one house. I love being around dogs since they make everything so much better, especially after bad days. I have had experience both house sitting and having a dog in my home. I work full time as a teacher. I make sure they are fed, go outside, and cared for before work and right after work. The pets actually come first as their needs should be met. On weekends, during breaks, and summer I am there for the pets a lot more since I’m off. In their home, I make sure to follow their routines. I follow all directions and rules the owners give me. I like keeping the pets where they are most comfortable.

“If you are looking for an experienced, considerate, and dedicated dog walker/sitter, then you've found your match! Gregory has provided dog walks and overnight care for our 60lb hound mix multiple times over the last few months and we couldn't be happier with the care he provides. He is incredibly communicative, provides very detailed updates after every walk (with plenty of pictures included), and has shown the utmost dedication to understanding our dog Izzy and her specific behavioral needs. We have worked with many positive reinforcement trainers in the past to address our pups over-excitability and leash reactivity and Gregory using much of the same language as these dog trainers when discussing strategies he used on his walks with Izzy to help redirect and keep her focused and safe. Our pup is very scent driven on walks which can require a lot of patience and steady redirection, and we are so grateful for how kind and gentle Gregory is when handling Izzy. We've only had one overnight experience with Gregory so far and he took great care of our home and left the house spotless! He also ensured us that he only books one overnight stay at a time to avoid any conflicts in schedule and make sure our dog has company throughout the night and to keep her safe in the event of an emergency. All that being said, you will have no regrets choosing with work with Gregory and we feel very fortunate to have found him!”

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.
