About: I have had dogs and cats all my life and now that I’m in the BEST years of that life (retired) I am able and ready to share all of my love and experience with new dogs and people! Although I can’t stay the night in your home, I CAN drop in, feed, play with, give snacks, even administer medication if needed, walk, and when it’s time for them to go to bed, make sure they are all tucked into bed. I can assure you that your fur baby will be loved and comfortable while your away- They will be treated with the love I give my own! As a retired person, I am living the dream, being a stay at home mom of fur children…let me love yours too! I am retired but my day starts with my three dogs at 5 in the morning, Everything I do revolves around them. They go out to use the bathroom then eat and come back in to sleep until around 7:30 then our actual day begins. Each Doodle goes on a mile and a half walk then my little pug, Sophia goes on her walk. Shes a senior so she only goes for as long as she can. This is a daily routine. They LOVE being outside so we spend almost all day outside on the patio playing when it’s nice…. They all love riding in the car so EVERYBODY at the bank, CVS, Dewars,Starbucks knows them by name. Where I go, they go! They have their spots in the car and they know their places. My kids are grown but I am definitely NOT an empty nester, they are my life and fulfill me 100%. For their safety with all the craziness happening in the world, as much as they love being outside, they are NEVER left outside when I am not home. They are brought inside and have been crate trained since they were 7 weeks old. It is their safe place and they love their crates. It’s where they sleep and where they eat too. Unfortunately I cannot offer in-home services, my home isn’t big enough for other animals and I am a realist-I would be mortified if something awful happened to a client’s pet, or mine, in my care.

About: I have been taking care of my animals since 7. We have had a Boxer, Chihuahua, Labrador, Doberman, and currently 3 Goldendoodles. I have taken care of all of them as they get old and have lived cared for three litters of puppies. I have even changed my fair share of doggy diapers. Feed, take out to the bathroom, play with, even pick up dog poop. If there is something you need I can help you. There has not been a dog to ever scare me or worry me. I'm working spotty, four hour, part time shifts and am fully online for college. I am almost fully open to come and take care of your animals throughout any part of the day. I take care of my dogs at any time. If you have specific details and structured feeding times or potty breaks I can work with that as well. My three dogs currently all have different play styles whether it is rougher or simply wanting to relax and lay down I have no issue adjusting.

About: I’ve taken care of animals my entire life- I am very comfortable with all breeds, regardless of size! I’ve been dogsitting in homes for over four years, and I’m always willing to take your buddy out for a good walk or a trip to the pet park. My animals are my babies, and I know how important they are to you as well! I work early mornings, so I’m usually very open throughout the day! I have a flexible schedule that I can fit almost anything into, we’ll get into the details together! Animals are truly some of the most important parts of my happiness, so I know how important they are to yours. Your pet’s wellbeing is my number one priority, and they will always be treated with the same level of care regardless of size, breed, etc. Your baby is my baby, too!

About: I've had dogs of all shapes in my house growing up: german shepherds, Yorkies, pit bulls and loooots of stray cats. I currently have 2 fur babies but I wish had more. I was the go-to kid in the neighborhood to check in on pets, play with them for energy, bathe and walk them and much more. I did it for fun, but looking back I probably should have charged $5 haha. I work from home and would love to help you out by watching, bathing, or walking your fur baby. I work from home and am very flexible in my hours. I am very familiar with dogs, cats and some rodent pets. I usually watch my friends' and family's dogs and cat while they are away and have no trouble fitting in plenty of walks and play time for them I make sure to respect the home and the owners while giving all my attention and time to the pets I'm watching. I also like to ask for particular tidbits that the animal's characters benefit from. (this goes from medications and feeding habits as well as things and behaviors to stay away from) For example, my pitbull needs a lot of attention but honestly, she just likes to be in the same room as everyone and likes to be talked to in funny voices whereas my Yorkie will just walk off and find a corner to crap in if she doesn't get enough attention and you will never know. I want pet parents to feel like they can forget about their pets while they are gone, it can be more trouble than it's worth to constantly worry and fret over your fur babies with a stranger.

“My dogs absolutely love Wendi! One will cry in the crate and she’s getting the other ready for a walk! I love the picture updates and how she somehow manages to tackle all three of them together! They have accepted her as part of their pack with their momma’s busy schedule and I couldn’t be more thankful!”

About: I've been watching pets since I was 9. I've watched all kinds of pets. I have pet sat for family and friends. But I'm not a normal sitter. I have dog training under my belt, so if your pet needs to work on tricks or training I can help Once a week I walk my dog and every other day I give them special food like blueberries, pumpkin puree, and chicken in their food. If they are a cautious pet I sit with them and wait for them to come to me. Then when they feel comfortable with me I put my hand out for them to smell me. And if their Demeanor changes I go from there

About: I love dogs and have a good heart- I had a 15 yr old girl dog who has passed and I am devastated. I currently have a 2 yr old dog and am looking to help take care of other people's dogs.

About: I grew up with lots of pets in my home and that translates to about 15 years of pet care. I am more acquainted with dogs than any other animal. I have worked with elderly dogs and have even trained my own puppy. I love dogs and would love to pet sit yours! I work full-time at a church and my schedule is flexible. I work Monday-Thursday with Friday-Sunday free. During the week, I can easily stop by for bathroom breaks in the mornings, around lunchtime, or in the early evenings and during the weekend I am free for bathroom time, walks, or spending time with your pet. It would not be difficult at all to fit pet care into my routine! I love dogs and have been around them my whole life. I got myself a puppy a handful of months ago and potty trained her in about 1-2 months. I love giving dogs attention, taking them for walks, and adhering to their routine. I have a puppy that is great with other dogs, super friendly, and would love to have another dog friend.

About: I’ve had many different types of pets in my lifetime, and I learned that every animal should be treated like a unique being. With different traits and tempers, care for each animal should be individualized. I love getting to know a pet and fulfilling their needs as wells as gaining experience! I’m currently a college student and have a part time job, I work 3-6 Monday-Friday. This being said, I have plenty of time before or after the to walk/check on an animal. No pet need is an inconvenience to me! When walking a dog I make it an individual experience, only one dog at a time. Or on the occasion, dogs of the same household. When checking on pets inside their own home, I make sure to check for any sort of mess or area that a pet may escape from. A home security is very important to me, this means locking up properly and making sure the pet has all essentials.

About: I have taken care of many animals, including some that most would consider incredibly difficult, so if your pets need more care or attention that won’t be a problem. I have handled dogs that are aggressive towards other dogs so I know what to do in situations like that. I have also taken care of days old kittens and I understand how to care and provide for young animals. I am self employed and my schooling is online so I have no scheduling conflicts. I am available at any time of any day really. I am able to take care of your pet however you need me to. I have taken care of pets who needed a lot of supervision and pets that needed very little. I love going on walks with them and I will take them to parks or things like that if that’s something you would like! I am currently self employed so I can work around any schedule. When I do house sitting, I usually do my work during the day and take as many breaks as needed to stop by the house and take care of the pets, and then I spend the night time spending more time with them. I have taken care of all different types of pets ranging from low to high maintenance. I have experience with escape artists and I am very aware and take special attention to ensure no one gets out. I also have experience with aggressive pets and I know how to handle myself in difficult situations. I feel like this is especially important for dogs that require walks because I am extra aware of other dogs in the area and I am more attentive to make sure there aren’t any quarrels.

About: I have a dog and 2 cats, and have been taking care of pets since adolescence. I’ve always made a point to try to learn and understand how they think and act, and what that might communicate to us! As a physician, I take the same approach to learning as much about my furry friends as I can, treating them the same as patients I see in the hospital, so I can better connect and more importantly know if something is wrong :) I currently have time on weekdays and afternoons, but also occasionally on weekends. Starting early March, will have time for most days of the week during interim period in training! Drop in visits are easier for me at this time, but I’m comfortable with any size cat or dog! My apartment is small, but I would be able to host an additional pet!

About: I have loved animals for as long as I can remember. It started @ 5 yrs old showing sheep @ the KC Fair. I have had dogs and cats to hamsters and rats plus rabbits, sheep, goats, chickens and even a tortoise. I have taken care of many dogs with medical issues. I can give meds and wound care to general care of feeding, walking and playtime. My schedule is open for your schedule. I would love to make this my full time gig with your help. I would love the opportunity to care and love your pet as much as I love mine. I don't think I have ever meant a dog I didn't like! Caring for your pet is easy, just give them love and understanding. To be honest, my pets are a bit spoiled but have the general do's and don't understood. I'm not super strict because they are like a child that needs direction, not necessarily punishment.
