About: I’ve taken care of neighbors/friends dogs and senior dogs, which also includes time to ease owners worries. My goal is to provide home care away. I currently lost my job of 21 years and have always wanted to work, take care of animals. No children & lots of love to provide I have a large, fenced in yard. My dog loves to play with other dogs & my cat watches oh so closely. They love it.
About: I’ve previously worked as an assistant dog trainer in all levels of the AKC Canine Good Citizen program, handling both puppies and reactive dogs. I also trained a dog to pass the Assistance Dogs International public access service exam and have volunteered at animal shelters. I’ve always loved animals and am now pursuing an animal science degree to turn that passion into my career! I am available the majority of weekdays (8:00 a.m. - 8:00 p.m.), Saturday afternoon/evening (4:00 p.m. - 8:00 p.m.), and most of Sunday (8:00 a.m. - 8:00 p.m.) Safety and trust are my top priorities with every visit. I use calm, confident handling and positive reinforcement to make each booking safe and enjoyable. I’m more than happy to bring treats to reward good manners and positive behavior! I pay close attention to body language and surroundings, keeping walks low-stress so every dog feels secure, enriched, and understood.

About: I’ve cared for both dogs and cats for several years and truly understand that every pet has their own unique personality and needs. As a pet owner myself, I have hands-on experience with feeding routines, litter box maintenance, daily walks, playtime, enrichment, and lots of affection. While I’m newer to professional pet sitting, I have real-life experience caring for my own animals and helping friends and family with theirs. I’m patient, attentive, and comfortable caring for pets of different temperaments — from energetic pups to independent or shy cats. I treat every pet as if they were my own and prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness. I currently work part-time and create my own schedule, which gives me plenty of flexibility for walks, drop-ins, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day. I’m available most weekdays and weekends, including afternoons and evenings. Because of my flexible schedule, your pet won’t be left alone for long periods and will receive consistent care and attention. I have a fully fenced backyard with grass for safe outdoor play and live within walking distance of a dog park for extra exercise (with owner approval). Inside my home, pets are supervised and kept in a calm, clean environment. I can easily follow specific feeding schedules, crate routines, medication instructions, or litter box preferences. For cats, I ensure litter boxes stay clean, provide enrichment and playtime, and respect their space if they prefer quiet companionship. My goal is to create a safe, loving environment where your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away.
