About: I have been dogsitting for two different families since I was 17. They relied on me to feed, walk, and attend to medical needs of their fur babies while sitting! I am pretty available during the week and I always find time to spend time with animals. I am also very flexible with others schedules! I have my own kitten so I know how to care for animals and my family has had three different dogs so I understand how to care for dogs and cats! And I am willing to learn for any other pet!
About: I have been dog and cat sitting for six years, and have had in home pets my whole life! I have experience with senior pets and am happy to help with any mobility needs. I am open to caring for puppies and kittens, but they must be potty trained. I work 8am-4pm and can take a lunch break to let pets out as needed! Happy to spend the night with a pet, or just pop for a bathroom break! I am not able to care for pets at my house at this time, however I am happy to spend the night somewhere else if need be (after being able to visit with the pet parents present). I am also happy to walk or play with pets to get them some exercise!

When she noticed something odd, she immediately notified me about the issue; she goes above and beyond.

About: I've never owned a dog but I've always been around family dogs and have given basic dog care over the years. Including walking and dog sitting.

About: I've taken care of many different dog breeds from small to big. I have worked with dogs from the puppy stage to a senior. I have experience with giving medication. I am always thorough with making sure your pet will have my undivided attention to have their needs met. I am an online college student so my schedule is open early mornings until about 6pm. I am available to walk or do drop in visits for your pet(s) any day except Wednesday and Thursday. I will always be vigilant with your pets. I will make sure they are where they are allowed to be and make sure to respect your home.
About: I have experience taking care of family pets and take great care of them. In the past, I have taken care of pets for friends, co-workers, and friends of friends while they were out of town, and kept them updated on everything. I have a part-time job, so I am flexible on my availability and am able to check in frequently. I will be available during weekdays and weekends. I can reliably take care pets by cleaning up after them, going on walks, feeding them, and being available assist with any issues when needed.
About: I started house sitting in high school for close family friends/neighbors of ours. The first family that trusted me had 2 birds, a turtle, 2 older cats, a dog, and 2 fish. Caring for the cats involved a good deal of specificity, especially with the timeliness of their routines. I also have walked and cared for numerous dogs through babysitting & nannying, whether it be overnight jobs or just for a few hours, and I understand the attention to detail it takes to make a pet and a pet parent feel happy and comfortable. My dog tore his ACL on the beach with me while I was in college, I carried him up and down my townhouse stairs for months. He also had allergies with a variety of treatments including soap that had to sit in a lather for 5-15 minutes every day (he did not like baths, especially when it was cold out), special diet, and pills. At times, I was giving him a few pills each morning. He was very smart, and adventurous enough to be a little mischievous. He knew when there was a pill in food, he could smell it, or have watched me prepare it differently. It got to the point that we had a position to get into, I would place a pill as far back on his tongue then have to hold his chin up. Sometimes he would pretend to swallow it, then go spit it elsewhere when he thought I wasn’t looking. He taught me to appreciate a dog’s individuality and sense of wit. I imagine pet personalities come in as wide a variety as humans, and I believe understanding, attentiveness, and playfulness are the standard for pet care. I work 8:30-5 (ish) 4 days per week, and I am happy to stop by before and after work and/or during lunch if reasonable, some days I get longer lunch breaks :) I am flexible on the weekends. I treat my pets as family, and I have witnessed my family and friends care for pets as if they are a child. On days I couldn’t bring my dog along, I trusted the people watching him to do the same, and maybe even add a little extra love for missing his family. I do think routines and caretaking look different per pet and household, but however works best for pet parents and their pets, they can expect I will be engaged, responsible, loving, and kind to their fur babies. I do also have a fenced in backyard, and live with two dogs if that option is valued.
About: Hi, I’m Julie—your dog’s new best friend! I’ve always had a soft spot for pups of all sizes and personalities. Whether your dog loves long walks, belly rubs, or just a quiet companion, I’m here to make them feel safe and loved while you’re away. I work part-time from home, so your dog will get lots of attention, snuggles, and care. Currently only working part time and have open availability - my work schedule is Tuesday, Thursday, Sunday 3-8 so anytime in between I can be available Open to taking dogs for walks and checking in. I just moved into my apartment and my dog is still adjusting to the new environment.
About: I have been walking and caring for dogs for about 2 years now. I am very familiar with medium to large dogs, but i also love the little ones that need exercise too. I have worked with any age dog, but I am best with middle-old dogs. I am a college student, who is also a part time server. I am usually on the weekdays during evening and night. Weekend I am available on mornings and evenings. I live in a good neighborhood that has plenty on dogs. I also have water bowls always at hand, plus a ton of treats and toys.
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life and bring years of hands-on experience to pet care. I grew up with a coonhound and a Jack Russell terrier, giving me early insight into different breeds, personalities, and energy levels. While I especially enjoy working with small to medium-sized dogs, I welcome any well-behaved pups into my care. In addition to dogs, I’ve also gained extensive experience with cats, helping my grandmother raise and foster over 20 kittens throughout my life. These experiences have taught me patience, responsibility, and the importance of giving each pet the love and attention they deserve. I am currently a full time college student and work on campus 6 hours a week, but can make just about anything fit into my schedule. I grew up with dogs and have always loved being around them. Since moving away to college, I’ve missed having dogs in my daily life, which makes caring for yours even more special to me. I’m also currently training for a 5-week hiking trip out west, so I enjoy taking long walks—something that benefits both me and your pup. Your dog’s safety and comfort are always my top priority, and I make sure they get the exercise, attention, and care they need in a positive and trustworthy environment.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs in the home since I was 2 years old. I’ve also walked multiple of my neighbors dogs. I now own one big Siberian husky!

She is responsible, reliable, and punctual. With my older chihuahua, Gracia is always so sweet and gentle. With my puppy rat terrier, she is playful and energetic. I can always rest easy when I know my dogs are in Gracia’s care, she consistently is able to provide the perfect care for each individual pup. I highly recommend Gracia for all your pet needs, she truly has been a lifesaver for me!”

“Julie is one of the most considerate and compassionate people i know. Her love and care for animals and people exceeds the norm. She is responsible and thoughtful and goes the extra mile for everyone she has any commitment to with no exception. She is very resourceful and heart centered. I have watched her take every consideration for her own pets and the pets of others. If there is an animal in need that crosses Julies path she is taking action. I highly reccomend Julie as an outstanding human being and as someone who holds reverence for animals. Thank you”
