About: Taken care of cats, dogs, and lizards since I was old enough to drive. I love learning about each animals unique needs and their silly personalities. Flexible schedule as I work on my art portfolio. Other than volunteering and appointments, I've got plenty of time for walks or check ins on your furry friends I am unable to bring your furry friends to my place, but when coming over any house rules you've got I'll make sure to follow!

About: As a seasoned Chihuahua mom and experienced dog fosterer, I have cared for over 30+ Chihuahuas (four being my own) and have been passionate about their well-being since I adopted my first Chihuahua at 19. I have a deep understanding of their unique personalities and needs, and I am confident in my ability to provide exceptional care for your furry friends. Is your pet anxious? Do they need their food bowl held while they eat? Do they prefer it heated up with a lil sprinkle of parmesan? I know a thing or two because I've seen a thing or two. My work schedule is flexible, so I'm around more than I'm not. If you choose to board while I am working, your pet will be safely secure in your chosen method (crate, play yard, bathroom etc). All come with access to food, water and a potty pad as well as any lovies or toys. Vacationers have the option to mingle with the locals or stay in their own gated suite. Meals are based on each pup's personal preferences. Hand fed, heated up, and a sprinkle of parmesan cheese are just some of the perks that come with staying at Aunt Shelli's AirBnB

About: Ever since being a young little girl, I have cared for dogs and they have a special place in my heart. I grew up with a yellow lab and took great care of her. As an adult I am the go-to pet sitter for my family and friends. I have watched small family farm taking care of goats, horses, dogs, and outdoor cats too. I have more experience with mid to older dogs than puppies, but I have also helped take care of puppies too. I am currently searching for a full-time position; therefore, I have flexibility for during the day for potty breaks or walks, evening care, and overnight stay at your house. I am unfortunately renting currently and have a no pet policy so I cannot board at this time. Your pet is to be treated like my own. I follow the owners lead but I love playtime, indoor or outdoor, walks by leash and harness, and cuddles and loves. I only give treats if that is what the household wants. I wish to keep the routine as similar to what the animal is used to.

About: I have had cats and dogs as pets my entire life. I am currently working in a dog kennel and have experience with all types of dogs. Experienced with bathing and providing medication if needed. I’m currently working part time and am in school. If I am watching an animal I adjust my schedule so I can spend as much time with the animal as possible. I have a friendly dog and a cat. If your pet gets a long it can roam the house. I can crate dog if needed. I generally will take your dog for a daily walk if weather permits.

About: I currently volunteer to walk dogs at the Humane Animal Treatment Society in Mt. Pleasant so I have a lot of experience walking many different dogs! I personally have had dogs in my life for as long as I can remember and they are such a joy! I am currently a Graduate Student at CMU studying Physical Therapy, so my nights are free and most afternoons I have a couple hours in between classes! Overall, it is a very flexible schedule and I will have a lot of free time during my summer classes as well! I have all the supplies needed for a pet to stay in my home! I do not have a fenced in yard, but I love taking dogs for walks and have walked many different dogs on leashes before!

About: I have always had dogs and cats in my life, from training my own dogs to dog/cat sitting for family and friends, I have more experience with big dog breeds rather than little but I am comfortable in my ability to care for all types of dogs and cats. My family has raised puppies multiple times and I have assisted in caring for and training them. I am currently unemployed but I have recently enrolled into a bachelor’s degree program completly online for a degree in animal health and behavior, I am 19 and I graduated high school last year. My days are pretty much completly open to being able to help people with their pets Currently I am unable to bring other people’s pets into my home because we have three large dogs that aren’t the best when it comes to other animals, but me and my boyfriend are working on renovating a polebarn into a apartment for me and him and we plan on completly fencing the area in for when we eventually get dogs of our own.

About: I have taken care of cats my entire life at my own home & my grandma’s home. I have also dog sat over weekends many times at peoples houses. I currently only have one class M/W and two classes T/TH, so I have a lot of free time in my hands to make sure your pet is getting the attention and love they deserve! We have a fairly large backyard area that could be great for going potty, and an unused fenced in soccer field across the street for more free play time!

About: Hi there! I have years upon years of pet care experience. From pet sitting my neighbors ducks and chickens to staying in home dog sitting. I work at my local animal rescue/grooming salon and have lots of knowledge on a wide variety of animals. I regularly care for puppies and our senior babies as well. My employment at the rescue has given me lots of hands on experience, I regularly handle reactive and insecure dogs. I medicate both cats and dogs daily as well as regularly care for a deaf and blind handicapped dog that has frequent seizures I work Saturday through Tuesday. Saturday and Sunday I work in the morning and would be available after 1pm. Thursday’s and Fridays I can be available anytime, when I work on the weekends I get up at 5am so mornings are not an issue. I’m really flexible and willing to work with you! If you have any questions on times just let me know! Your pet’s safety is my number 1 priority. Working at the rescue has really sharpened my observation skills on animal behavior. I will never force an animal to do something that is overly uncomfortable, too overstimulating or threatens their overall health or wellbeing. I am a very patient person and willing to work with you and your fur friend on any insecurities or issue that may arise!
