About: I’ve taken care of dogs whether it’s going on walks or dog sitting. I even have my own dog that I’ve had for 8 years now. I do have a full time job but I have free time for Friday-Sunday even during the week after work. If it’s Monday-Thursday I can do it after 6pm I don’t mind dog sitting at your home if needed. I wouldn’t be able to bring them to my home since I live in an apartment.
“We were away from home for three weeks and Jasmine took good care of Sylvester our pet cat during our absence.She was very considerate and flexible with her times. Very grateful that she took good care of Sylvester and kept him healthy. Sylvester also bonded with her very quickly which is rare as he takes time to trust people. Thanks a lot Jasmine for making our long trip possible without any worries. We would highly recommend Jasmine to anyone, she is very reliable, trustworthy and considerate person.”
About: Hi there! I’ve been a devoted dog mom for 19 years, including caring for a large breed pup for over a decade. I’m deeply attuned to the emotional and physical needs of animals — from energetic young dogs to gentle geriatric pets who need a slower pace and extra love. I’m skilled at reading body language and anticipating what your pet might need before they even ask for it. I believe that every dog and cat deserves care that is calm, responsive, and full of affection. When I’m in your home, I treat it with the same respect I give my own — I’m neat, thoughtful, and follow all care instructions closely. I’m also quick to communicate and always happy to send updates so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away. Whether we’re snuggling on the couch, going for a walk, or sharing quiet company, your pet’s well-being and emotional comfort are my top priorities. Im available for any of your pet care needs. I do work during the day, but I'm available on an 8-hour schedule during the day and can stay overnight. As a lifelong dog lover, my first priority is always your pup’s safety and well-being. I keep dogs leashed at all times when outdoors and closely follow regular feeding schedules while monitoring for healthy water intake. I believe every dog deserves exercise and stimulation that fits their body, energy level, and comfort. Whether it’s a short walk, backyard play, or quiet companionship, I tailor the experience to meet their individual needs. I always ask about medications, allergies, and health routines up front. I'm also well-versed in foods that are harmful to dogs and never offer people food — only what you've approved. You can trust that your dog will be cared for with attentiveness, consistency, and deep respect for your preferences. Their safety and comfort come first.

About: I have always loved animals. Not just pets. I’m vegan and animals mean more to me than anything in this world. I have always been around dogs, cats, raccoons, opossums, cows, you name it. I have three dogs of my own and two cats. I am gentle and sure to take great care of all of my furry friends :) I work online from home, so I have a VERY open schedule. This just interested me because it’s a chance to meet new, sweet fur-babies since I cannot afford to have ten dogs of my own. I have two dogs.
