About: I’ve taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember. I never had a dog or cat growing up so I was always trying to find ways to spend time with others pets, including asking the neighbors if their dogs could come out and play! I have a dog of my own now who just turned 10 and have a cat as well. I work from home so happy to get out of the house and meet new pets friends! I am currently working full time from home. My schedule is pretty flexible so I can be available for drops ins and walks on both week days or weekends. I’m very detail oriented and love to make animals feels safe. Just let me know best practices for your pet so I can give them the same level of care you give them!

About: I’ve cared for dogs and other pets for over 12 years through helping family, friends, and neighbors with walking, feeding, bathing, playtime, and overnight care. I have worked at a dog facility in the past. I’m very patient, dependable, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs and personality. I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes and energy levels, and I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate quality time and attention to each pet I care for. Whether it’s walks, drop-in visits, feeding, or playtime, I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m reliable, responsive, and happy to work with different routines and schedules to best fit your pet’s needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I make sure every pet is supervised, cared for attentively, and kept in a calm, loving environment. I always follow any routines, feeding schedules, medication instructions, or special requests provided by owners. I understand how important trust is when leaving your pet with someone, and I treat every animal with patience, kindness, and care as if they were my own.

About: I've grown up caring for three dogs at once in a busy household, so I’m no stranger to managing multiple pets with love and attention. I’ve also worked at a dog daycare, gaining hands-on experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I’m especially confident with dog walking and making sure every pup gets the care, exercise, and attention they need. I’m currently working part time at cub so I’ll need to schedule around that but other than that I’ll be free most of the time. I treat every pet like my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I follow your instructions closely and keep your home clean and secure.

About: I have been around dogs my whole life and grew up with two schnauzers, which helped me develop a strong love for animals and confidence caring for different personalities and energy levels. I currently have a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, so I understand the importance of providing pets with attention, exercise, consistency, and affection. I’m very active, friendly, and dependable, and I enjoy spending time outdoors, making me a great fit for dog walking and pet sitting. I am currently working part time, which gives me flexibility and availability during weekdays as well as some weekends for dog walking and dog sitting! I live in a townhome with lots of green outside areas. I have one dog, Honey, who is very friendly and loves other dogs and people!

About: Caring for pets has always come natural for me. I can’t remember a time that I wasn’t surrounded by pets and truly can’t imagine a home without them. Growing up with two cats and three dogs sparked a lifelong love for animals - some might say I love them even more than people! I started pet sitting for neighbors at age 10, caring for all kinds of pets, from Labradors to Yorkies and Siamese to Persian cats, as well as fish and reptiles. I’m attentive and experienced in providing personalized care for multiple pets at once, most recently caring for three French Bulldogs and regularly looking after three lovely (and very opinionated!) cats. I understand how stressful it can be to find the right sitter, and I strive to make the experience smooth, reliable, and worry-free for both you and your pets. My schedule is very flexible and I am more than happy to accommodate for you and your pet's needs. I'm available 7 days a week to cover your 9-5, check in for potty breaks, walks and love, or keep your furry friend company for your night plans! I carefully listen and follow your rules for your pet and your home. You know your pet best and what they need. I take caring for your pet very seriously and have experience following multistep feeding instructions, administering medicine/pills, and caring for pets with anxiety.

About: I’ve owned and cared for dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. From our neighbors cat who we invited to our birthday parties as kids, to the 3 precious dogs I’ve had the honor of being a mama to. Nash (weimer) left us in 2019 at 12 years old. We just said goodbye to Oliver (Puggle) in August of 2025 at 17 years old! And we currently still get to love on Riggins, our 10 year old Frenchie. With Nash and Oliver living such long lives, I have experience caring for all ages, from puppies to seniors. I work from home full time as a sales executive, so my flexible schedule allows me to step away as needed for care. I am also an early riser, so I am available to breakfast feed an walk early. My dogs are my babies, so I know the importance of having someone to rely on. If you need me to drop in and/or feed or give medicine, potty break/walk etc. at a specific time, I understand how important it is to not be late. If they need something at 3:30, it will be 3:30, not 3:45.

About: I had a family dog until he passed when he was 16 years old that my family & I adopted when I 6 years old. I took over care for him in my teenage years, as we were attached at the hip. I now have my own dog who I rescued and has been part of my family since Mar 2018. I have experience working for a pet-care business, both as a walker and an office administrator. My family has also owned a cat, a turtle and a fish! I have a fairly flexible schedule, so my days are open and welcome the addition of taking care of fur babies during the day from late morning to early evening! I am very attentive when inside of a client’s home and treat it as if it were my own! I am great with attention to detail.

About: I have been taking care of dogs and other animals for about 5 years. I have neighbors and family friends that I dog sit for and walk their dogs. Family friends, coworkers, and even travel agents come to me for puppy/animal care! Pet care fits in perfectly with my routine. I am very responsible when it comes to other people’s pets and am very flexible and available. In my home, someone is almost always around. My dad works from home and I have school for a minimum of 2 hours in the morning. In my clients homes, I take time out of my day to spend time with their animals, and work according to the animals schedule, not mine.

About: I have taken care of dogs for my entire life. When I was five we got our first Boston terrier and prior to that we had a yellow lab. My husband and I have been married for 23 years and we had a yellow lab who unfortunately passed away 12 years ago from a medical issue and now we have an English setter who is 11 1/2 and a another English Setter who is two years old. I also have worked part time at a doggy daycare. I currently work full-time as a teacher in Bloomington however I am more than willing to let dogs out before school or after school or in the early evening and during the weekends. I also have my summers off so I’m more than willing to walk dogs during the summer. We care for our pets in our home very diligently. We love and spoil our pets. We do have a fenced in backyard. We have an 11 1/2 year old English setter and adopted a 12 year old English Setter 1 year ago, who unfortunately passed away from cancer. We have a English setter who is two.
