“Always a pleasure! Thank you for taking such good care of my girls”

About: With over a year of dedicated pet care experience, I treat every animal like a member of my own family. In addition to providing reliable dog walking and drop-in care, I currently work in professional animal care, volunteer at my local shelter, and am studying to become a veterinary assistant. This extensive background means I am highly skilled at reading animal body language, managing high-energy walks, and ensuring your pet stays safe and happy right in their own home. My goal is to keep your pet's daily routine perfectly on track and give you total peace of mind while you are out. My Availability for Walks & Drop-Ins My schedule is highly flexible and built around my animal care commitments. I am in class two days a week from 8:00 AM to 2:30 PM, and I work my other animal care job on Mondays, Fridays, and Saturdays—but my work hours on those days are pretty flexible! Outside of my class times, I have plenty of availability throughout the week for morning, afternoon, and evening drop-in visits or walks. Whether you need a consistent mid-day break or a quick evening feeding, I can easily adjust my calendar to fit your pet's routine. Your pet's safety and comfort are my absolute top priorities. Because of my formal training as a future veterinary assistant and my experience volunteering at the shelter, I am highly attentive to animal behavior, body language, and home safety. During drop-ins and walks, I ensure your home remains secure, double-check that gates and doors are locked, and keep a watchful eye out for any potential hazards. You can trust that your furry family member will always be in safe, capable hands, receiving the same gentle care and respect that I would give to my own pets.

About: Even though we do not have dogs ourselves, I grew up with many rescue dogs. Friends and neighbors have trusted me to care for their pups! I love to play with them, take them for long walks, or just cuddle. I am a full-time university professor. During the school year, I work from home on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. I am also available Tuesday and Thursday late afternoons evenings. I am happy to schedule weekend care. My summer (mid-May to mid-August) is much more open and flexible. I am available for multiple daily home visits, but not for overnights. Since I had a "super senior" cat who needed daily meds, I am punctual and diligent about care. I am excellent at paying attention to details. I give all animals attentive, loving care!

“Emily is very good with my two dogs Alfie and Beanie. They are always happy to see her and go on their walks. She always arrives on time and is very easy and nice to deal with. I plan to continue having her walk my pups and hope it's working out well for her as well.”

About: Hi my name is Yocheved, but a lot of people call me Yo, or Ava. I am an only parent to a wonderful, active middle schooler. We have a happy home full of love and laughter, and 2 kitties. After 14 magical years together, we lost our dog to old age, a couple years back. I miss the feel of having a dog around, but I know in my heart of hearts we are all a little older, and a little busier, and our home cannot house a new permanent four-legged resident. But I do not accept the lack of dogs in our lives! I said yes to dog sitting lately, and I have made so many new friends since. Hanging out with your dogs or cats when you're unable to be there- it's become a thing I look forward to in my home. I love walking the neighborhood or doing drop-ins to feed cats. Let me help you! I'm currently WFH part time, and tend to end my days on the early side, for parenting purposes. Because of this I'm pretty flexible and available throughout the week. I tend to all pets, like I would for my own. I cared for my dog through cancer, twice- so I'm pretty familiar with medicine, senior care, and all the extra effort needed for older or sick animlas. I love to walk, burn off energy, and snuggle. Happy to do light grooming (brushing), and send photos and videos throughout our time together!

About: I have my own dog and two cats, I can pick up after and play with your pets. I am easily adaptable, so if your pet requires things like medications I am willing to help. I currently have a part-time job, so I will only be available during weekdays. I am mostly available around midday hours, but can be flexible if I can work it in my schedule. I can take your pet on a walk or simpley watch over your pet for a bit. I myself have a dog and two cats, so I am familiar with feeding and picking up after animals.

About: Hi my name is aaziya and I have over 10 years of pet care experience and I am very flexible. Whether your fur baby is reactive, special needs, or you have specific instructions on how you want them cared for, I do it all! My schedule is very open due to the fact that I just left a pet grooming job where I didn’t feel very much comfortable and couldn’t fit into my day to day life Since I don’t have anything other than getting my son to and from daycare that needs my attention, your pet will have all of my undivided attention to care for all their needs! I also have a very large yard for them to either burn energy or just relax in the sun.

“Gina has been helping exercise my border collie through fetch and walks and has been fantastic with her! Extremely responsive, flexible, and enthusiastic about helping out.”

“Charlotte came to walk my dog three times when my partner was a patient at Cleveland Clinic and I was staying at a hotel nearby. She dealt with some logistical difficulties with the hotel and took care of Ahsoka. She got Ahsoka some exercise and dealt with her reactivity. Her communication was excellent and I could tell Ahsoka had been well-cared for.”

“Emily is friendly, kind and attentive, and I trust her to take great care of my Artie. She was even kind enough to bring my packages inside when she came over to walk him. I highly recommend booking with Emily.”

Jennifer L.

“Brittany has been a great addition to Corbin's routine. She comes daily to walk, feed and play with him. She provides me with super cute pictures and an update on how he did”

“John has been fantastic! Very much appreciate him”

About: I have been taking care of dogs for a little over a decade for my friends and family. I also worked at a dog daycare while in college, where I played, fed cuddled, loved, did house visits and overall cared for about any dog breed you can think of! On a regular day at the daycare, we would have around 25 different dogs at a time to care for. I also have have my own dog named Harley and he’s the best boy! I work full time. 5x 8’s with varying shift times and days but I will work around my hours to take care of your fur babies! I will always treat your fur baby like one of my own. They will have my full attention when I am with them and I will make sure their needs are met. I will follow all instructions you have and give them all of the love to make sure they are happy!

About: I’ve had dogs since I was two years old. I subscribe wholly to the idea that they are mans best friend. I’ve been walking dogs for nearly 5 years, and I truly love it. Exercise and play time are important to a dog’s and cat’s mental and physical health, and I’m happy, ready, willing, and able to provide that for your furry family member. I’m happy to do walks early morning or late night, as well as general drop ins throughout the day to provide you with the peace of mind to know your furry friend is happy and getting exercise. I’m happy to follow any rules you have for your pet, dietary restrictions, etc. Of course, if there’s a favorite toy, or place to walk, please let me know, happy to oblige that as well. I'm currently not working full-time so I have plenty of time to take care of your furry family member. Caring for pets is my primary source of income currently. I rarely leave pets alone if they are in my home, and I make sure to understand someone else's home before allowing a pet out of my sight.

“Andrea is one of a kind ! She makes you feel at ease while she is taking care of your fur baby. She goes above and beyond to make sure she knows what your animals personality and needs are . My pup absolutely adores her and looks forward to seeing her every week !”

“Anya was great! Even got some cute pics. Will definitely be using her again and highly recommend!”

About: I've been around animals my entire life! My family has had pets for as long as I can remember—from senior golden retrievers to brand new kittens—and I have been pet sitting for friends and family since I was back in high school. I even now have two kitties of my own! When I take care of your pets, I'll treat them with the same care and affection I do my own. I've taken care of animals with behavioral struggles and physical health troubles within my own family and it has given me important experience to be able to take the best care of your pets, no matter what their unique circumstances. I am available weekends and throughout most work weeks and my university schedule allows for the flexibility I need to meet your pets needs whenever works best for them! I am Red Cross Certified in Cat and Dog First Aid. I also have experience caring for both senior dogs and puppies/kittens that are under a year old, as well as experience administering various oral medications and inhalers to dogs and cats. I also have experience with dogs that require a muzzle, for any reason. I do reserve the right to refuse any booking where a dog is not leash trained, for the safety of myself as well as your dog.

“Reliable and great communicator!”

About: If you're like me your pet is your baby, so why trust anyone but the most experienced?! I have trained, groomed, fostered, pet sit and worked as a vet assistant. Your fur baby will be in the best of hands when I'm taking care of them! Have a dog that requires special treatment? No worries! Difficult to handle and nervous pets, those that require medication, etc. are not an issue for me at all. I am self employed with a very flexible schedule, reliable, responsible and trustworthy. Added bonus? I am a photographer so you can expect pictures of pet on a regular basis! I have numerous references that I will gladly provide for pets I have cared for. Thank you for considering me and I hope to meet you and your pet soon! As someone that is self employed, I have a very adaptable schedule to fit the needs of my clients. I allow for enough time between clients and I also try to schedule everyone on a route that will utilize my time best and allow me to give everyone the attention they require! I am vigilant and attentive to each animal in my care. I always double check things are put away, doors/gates are latched, etc. My focus remains on the animals I am caring for to insure their safety!

About: I have been pet sitting and dog walking since before I can remember. My family members were all allergic to animals so I was never able to have my own to love and care for. Pet sitting and dog walking was a way to get my animal “fix” without causing any allergic reactions in our household! I also ride horses and have owned and cared for many horses over the past ten years. Currently, I am taking a break from owning a horse but still get to ride occasionally! I do have references available if need be and would be happy to share to whomever is interested. I now have my own dog, Zuri, I rescued her in October 2020! She is the best girl ever and loves her life! I also have fostered for a few different organizations so am well versed in how each dog is different. I love all animals and would love any opportunity to give yours love when you aren’t available to do so! I work from home 4 days a week! So I am able to snuggle and play with the dogs all day! We do several walks a day & utilize enrichment toys. I live in an apartment, it’s big enough to host Zuri and one other dog comfortably. There are a few flights of stairs so would want to make sure your dog is comfortable with that.
