About: What sets me apart is the genuine care and understanding I bring to every pet. As a psychology student, I’ve developed strong skills in observing behavior, recognizing body language, and responding with patience and empathy. While animal behavior and human psychology aren’t the same, those skills help me better understand each pet’s unique personality and comfort level. I’ve also grown up surrounded by animals and have always helped care for my family’s pets. I’m a proud dog and cat owner myself. I’ve raised my dog since she was a puppy, so I understand the time, consistency, and love that goes into helping a pet feel safe and happy. I also care for my cat, which has taught me to appreciate different personalities and care needs. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and my goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I am currently working a part-time job and I’m looking for an another job on my days off doing something that I love. Sticking to their exact routine such as feeding schedules and bathroom habits exercise and medications to minimize stress and always communicating regularly with the owners.

“Grace has been an extreme blessing to me and my husband. We are first-time pet owners and she was God sent. Very responsible, punctual, and kind to Nipsey. He loves her. Thanks again Grace! You now have a permanent client!”

About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. My hands-on experience started in 2015 with my cat Mittens (now 10) and my dog Fluffy (also 10), so I understand the long-term care and attention pets need at every stage of life. In addition to caring for my own pets, I worked at an animal hospital for a year and a half, where I gained valuable experience in animal care. This included feeding pets with special diets, following specific care instructions, and supporting animals with different needs. My combination of personal and professional experience helps me provide attentive, reliable, and compassionate care for every pet I look after! I am currently home for the summer from college would like to dedicate my afternoons to my future furry friends! I am flexible, so if there is any shifting/accommodations that has to happen that is fine. I care for pets in my client’s home by making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and kept in their normal routine while their owner is away. I follow all specific instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, dietary needs, medication if needed, and exercise routines. I also make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and affection so they don’t feel stressed or lonely. I treat each home with respect and keep everything clean. I will always provide updates so owners feel reassured while they’re away--I know what its like to miss my pets too!

About: I have experience raising and caring for dogs, including my neighbor’s Labrador Retriever, Max. Over the years, I’ve ensured Max stays happy, healthy, and well-loved by providing regular feeding, grooming, and daily walks. I also enjoy teaching commands and engaging Max in fun activities to keep him active and mentally stimulated. Caring for Max has deepened my understanding of canine behavior and strengthened my passion for providing excellent pet care. Pet care fits seamlessly into my schedule as I am usually available in the afternoons. This allows me to dedicate quality time to meet pets' needs, including walks, playtime, feeding, and other essential care. My flexible afternoons ensure I can provide consistent attention and maintain a reliable routine for the pets I look after. When caring for pets in a client's home, I prioritize their comfort and routine to minimize stress. I ensure their environment is safe, secure, and clean, paying attention to any specific instructions provided by the pet owner. I follow the pet’s daily routine, and I provide plenty of love and attention to ensure they feel comfortable. I also keep the home tidy and respect the client's space, ensuring their pet receives the same level of care and attention as if they were in my own home.

About: Hello!! My name is Amelie, it nice to meet you! Animals have always held a special place in my heart and I truly believe every pet deserves to feel loved, safe, and happy even when their favorite humans are away. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, and I don't take that responsibility lightly. Every pet has their own unique personality, and I enjoy taking the time to get to know what makes them happiest. I'll follow their routine, give them lots of love and attention, and send regular photo updates so you can enjoy your time away knowing they're in good hands. I look forward to making new four-legged friends! I currently have my mornings free from 9-5 and afterwards I have my part time! I make sure I was enough wiggle room based on your pets needs and time variations so please don’t hesitate to ask any questions you may have I’m happy to clear up any doubts! I can take in cats in my home and depending on your cats needs I will gladly adjust! I will be home with them at all times so if they have a favorite game or simply enjoy chill company I will gladly do whatever makes them most comfortable! I also do drop ins! Just let me know what your pet routine is and I’ll take it from there. If it’s to feed or even let them out I’ll make sure they get what they need and send a farewell picture :D

About: Dogs have always been an important part of my life. I currently have two dogs I walk and board as well as a dog at home. I’m committed to keeping the dogs in my care safe, and making sure they are having a great time. Currently I have a pretty open schedule and could work with you on the details. Available 7 days a week, days and nights. Long term or short term. I walk the dogs two or three times a day. Often walk the woods in the reservation and use the dog park. My yard is fenced in and private. Have dog at home (Messi) who loves dogs and company. If you’re more comfortable having your pet caged, we can make arrangements for that or whatever makes you comfortable.

About: I have taken care of all types of pets for 7 years. I have been taking care of dogs for 2 years. I love all! I am available part time for dog care. Nights are more easier to accept due to my work schedule as a therapist. Let me know and I can work with you! I have a doggy park. I have cages if a dog wants a lone time from other dogs/pets. I have a balcony if it is raining for air and sun. I am available before 7 and after 4:30 usually for drop off on weekdays. I am flexible on weekends. We can accommodate times if told in advance. There is a fenced dog park across the street. The dogs slept separately all day besides during play time. We have cameras inside the house and outside the front door.

About: For the past eight years, I’ve provided attentive dog walking and cat care for pets with a wide range of needs, personalities, and medical conditions. I’m committed to giving every pet patient, loving, and dependable care while making their safety, comfort, and happiness my highest priorities. After years in retail and banking, I chose to follow my passion for pet care and build a career centered on trust, compassion, and reliability. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care, and I strive to give pet parents peace of mind through clear communication and consistent, thoughtful service. I'm available for dog walking and drop-in visits for dogs or cats, Monday through Friday between 8 am & 4 pm. I’m not usually available on weekends, however, if you’re in a bind and need a walk or a visit on a Saturday or a Sunday, and I have no plans that weekend, I most likely will be able to do it as long as it’s no later than 12 pm. For your dog's safety, dogs are prolific sniffers, inevitably putting things in their mouths that they shouldn't. I pay close attention to and keep a watchful eye on the ground to make sure your dog doesn't put anything in its mouth that can be harmful. In the unlikely event your dog or cat needs medical attention, I’m certified in cat and dog first aid by the American Red Cross.

“Fernanda was very caring and attentive with my cat. She was very communicative with me while I was away. I appreciated Fernanda being so thoughtful and helpful.”
