About: Love for animals has been a part of my life since early childhood. We were taught compassion and kindness for every kind of animal, big and small. I know that a pet is cherished as a part of a your family, as they have always been a part of mine. My current lifestyle allows me to be available to you most days. I am extremely flexible and looking forward to being there for your pet care needs. It’s my mission to give you a little piece of mind that your pet is loved and cared for just as carefully as when you are home.
“Scott dropped in on a last minute urgent request and took great care of the pups. He made sure they had fresh water, yummy treats, potty breaks and some fun play. They really enjoy time with him and we trust him for all our pet needs!”
About: I’ve taken care of small, medium and large dogs. I’ve been doing it for 4 years, I can also bathe and train the dogs to sit, paw, and lay down. I work as a receptionist at a veterinary clinic, so I’m around pets all day and love every second of it. I have dogs and cats of my own, so I know how important it is to have someone trustworthy caring for your furry family members. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or walks, I make sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. My availability: 🐾 Monday–Thursday: After 6 PM 🐾 Friday–Sunday: Available anytime I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where your dog can relax and feel at home. Whether we’re going for a walk, playing, or just hanging out, I always make sure your pet is secure, loved, and well cared for.
