“Maddie A. is an outstanding pet sitter. She provided exceptional care for Percy while I was away at a concert, keeping me updated with regular check-ins throughout the stay. She was incredibly professional, and it was clear that Percy was in great hands. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and attentive sitter.”

About: I’ve had dogs and cats since I was born. I currently have 2 big dogs and 6 cats at my home. I’ve pet sat for friends and family and sometimes I come over just to see their fur babies. I love going on walks with dogs but also snuggling up on the couch with my babies. I currently have a 8am-4pm job but it’s with family so they are very flexible if I need to leave and come back during the day. I’m currently enrolled in college online perusing a degree in marketing as well. I’m a very gentle person and I have a lot of respect for animals space. I don’t like to rush or make them feel threatened by me. I often however, hit it off very well with pets and love to play with them! I have tons of acres at my home so my dogs like to run free or on a leash if needed.

I own my own company - Critter Care and Rescue! This is my full time job, which allows me the freedom to pick up pet care appointments, even with very short notice. I treat every animal I interact with as if they are my own. I am hyper vigilant about safety- whether that is environmental, the animal's health or the body language an animal is showing. I can guarantee that any animal in my care would be protected with my life.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was around nine, helping with feed, bathing and taking puppies out. As well as giving the dogs their medicine and giving them more time with their training commands. Making sure they still follow those. Pet care fits into my daily routine, because I am currently looking for a job and love working with animals so this would be a nice side or main job Since we aren’t allowed to have pets in our home, I am respectful of other others and their suggestions or rules /boundaries of their routines and homes

About: I have worked in dog boarding facilities as well as dog sitting for friends and family. I enjoy walks just as much as dogs do! I have a part time job where I make my own schedule so I can work as much or as little as I wish to there I have a fenced in yard and the cats will probably hide. I keep a very clean house so there’s hardly anything on the floor. Plenty of room to run around as well

About: I’ve had pets all my life and I have a love for all animals. I know many dogs through friends and family and I have experience walking and caring for a variety of breeds, ages and temperaments. I used to have two dogs of my own in addition to my three cats, one of which was a Shiba Inu - so I’m used to and can handle dogs that can be reactive or territorial. I’ve been around dogs for as long as I can remember and I love to spoil and care for them. You can be sure I’ll treat your pets with the same love and attention I would give to my own. I currently have a business I’m starting up so I’m only working part time, as such my availability is varied but generally open. I prefer to sit at others’ homes but would be available to board throughout the week - I have a couple obligations Monday, Wednesday and Friday so just message me and we’ll see what we can work out. As I have three cats any boarding at my home would require the pet to be vetted and to verify they are cat friendly and non-aggressive. For in-home sitting I can provide a walk, feedings and general play and care including letting the dogs out to potty. At my own place I do not have a fully enclosed yard, but I can still take out dogs on-leash, and would provide all the same in-home care as I would sitting. I do have a gate for the kitchen if they needed to be kept separate from the cats. As I rent the dogs must be potty trained, though I understand pee accidents due to excitement and such can happen. In general I offer a safe and friendly environment for your pets regardless of whether I’m in your home or my own, as every animal deserves to be treated with love and care.
