About: My experience has been mostly my family and friends. I have taken their animals on walks, bathed them, fed them, played with them. Took them to parks and even trained them on new skills. Since I just graduated I have very open availability and ready to help. I am very organized and dependable, I value time management, my career/education, and most importantly taking care of people and animals. I am currently waiting for the new school year to roll around and continue my education so my schedule is free. I wake up early to work out but that time can be flexible depending on if I have a pet to watch. I keep the animals on the schedule they are used to. Feed them, fill water, walks, clean behind them, playtime, medicine if they need. Also litter box maintenance for cats. Also making sure we’re safe in the house and my phone near me to contact the owners if needed.

About: I love to spend time with them , I like to play with them, I like to take them to the park. I will always keep them on a leash. I can teach them some tricks, sit , stay roll over. I can take them out every two hours, to go potty. I can keep them over night. I took care of a one eye cat, I took care of a blind dog. I have had dogs in diapers. I took care of a Yorkshire, who was pregnant, she went into labor at my house, and my mom and I delivered three little babies they came out every forty minutes. We help clean the babies, and my dog Chuckie helped to. Give them kisses, hugs.

Maddie is the best! My boyfriend uses her services for his dogs because he often travels for work, so when I needed someone to take care of my cats when I was out of town, I knew Maddie was the answer. She loves animals and is so kind to them. It is nice knowing I have someone I can trust my babies with when I cannot be there.

About: I have grown up with a family of many people and even more dogs. I have dog sat for my family and friends for the last decade. I have given daily medicine and injections to miniature pinschers, German shepherds, and Boston terriers. I have walked large dogs and small. I love sharing a bed and chair with all breeds. I love running and jogging and entertaining dogs. I am available 24 hours on the weekends. During the week I work virtually. I love having the company of dogs and cats. Walks are so much more fun with all four-legged friends! I am available after 5 pm during the week and any time on the weekends. I would love to meet your pup or kitten ahead of my first walk or drop-in visit. I will make sure that your animals are comfortable with me before approaching them in your home. I will make sure to remove my shoes and to dry your pup's feet (if you would like) before returning inside after a walk.

About: I have had a pet of some kind throughout my whole life. Whether it be my large, goofy Labradors, my small but mighty Chihuahua, or my lovable yet mischievous cats, I have experience with animals of all shapes, sizes, and abilities and I can assure you your animals would be in good hands under my care. My schedule for this summer is completely open as of now, so my availability is wide open! During the academic year, I attend school full time and work part time so my hours are more limited but I am happy to work with you to make sure our needs align. I will follow your pet’s normal routine to the best of my ability, making sure they feel comfortable and loved while you are away. I will maintain a safe and clean environment while respecting your home and promise to provide routine updates about your pet.

About: I’ve been a dog lover my whole life! With 2 dogs at home and plenty of other pets within my extended family, I’ve had years of experience with dog sitting. From overnight stays to simple walks around the neighborhood, I love to spend as much time as possible with pets! I’m currently home for the summer, so I have pretty open availability! I am free any time from morning to evening on weekdays. Weekends I tend to be busier during the evenings, but I am pretty flexible regardless. I will care for and be attentative to your pets as needed. I am comfortable taking pets on a walk, feeding them, letting them play outside, or just giving some extra cuddles as needed!

Nicole was amazing! She eased any worries we had and also updated us with pictures and videos while we were gone. She was very much in touch with any updates. We will definitely rebook her the next time we need someone to care for our pup and we’re so glad that we booked Nicole in the first place!

About: I have had plenty of pets since I was little, and have always been the one my family relied on to care for them. A lot of friends also reach out to me to watch after a their pets I’m working full time as an assistant manager at DQ, I have a fairly flexible schedule. I will be going back to school in the fall, so my schedule will be a bit tighter. I often dog sit for my grandpa and friends at work. I don’t offer this right now because I still live with my parents but will in a few months after i find my own apartment that of course, welcomes pets!!
