About: Hi, Im Sydney. I was a playroom supervisor at a dog daycare for almost 4 years. I'm pet CPR and vet assistant certified. I've been taking dog behavior classes through work for the past 3 years. My job has given me the opportunity to work with a bunch of different breeds, big and small. I am very passionate about dogs and I don't think I could ever go back to a 'normal' no dog job. Currently I am a stay at home mom looking to make some extra money doing something I love. I'm too sensitive to be a veterinarian or a rescue, so I enjoy spending my time working with happy, healthy dogs! I have grown up with cats all my life as well, I like hanging out with them too. I would be happy to meet and take care of your pets too! I have complete open availability, I'm always home! I can walk them daily. My dogs are usually friendly and love having friends over to play with. I have a very dog friendly home. I love walking and playing outside with dogs but also snuggling them on the couch! Whichever your pet prefers.

About: Hi there! My name is Salina! (: Any dog I’ve met I have loved & treated like my own. I have taken care of dogs my whole life and growing up we always had a dog in the home. Within the last five years I had to do a move & my current residence does not allow me to have pets unfortunately. Yes, this makes me incredibly sad because if I could have a dog or two, I most certainly would. However, over the years prior, I have grown up around & taken care of boxer/pit bull mix, a Brittany Spaniel & Jack Russell terriers. I have been reliable & trusting for close friends & families on care for their dogs (small & large) at their home while they have been out of town & always treat them like my own. Dogs are family, really any pet you have is family & always deserve all the loves & care! I am also very active & enjoy being outside, getting fresh air & exercising! I’m currently a new grad Nurse & work a few days a week. The rest of the days are open, usually in the mornings and/or depending on the times needed for your pups. I will try my best to accommodate scheduling around my work schedule because if I can, I of course, would love too help take care of your fur babies for you! 😊 At a client’s home, I can adapt to any routines your pups may have with detailed instructions. I am sure to follow any & all instructions. I will be sure to give them quality interactions & make sure they are fed, watered & pottied & of course, all the loves, belly rubs & words of praises! I would also love to know if they have any favorite snacks and/or toys!

“Alexa has been a loving caregiver to our spoiled pup! She makes sure he is well cared for and given lots of love. She sends pictures when we're missing him, which we greatly appreciated! Alexa also has fed our turtle and turned lights on and off at the requested times. She is very responsible and loves animals!”
4. Marcus G.
“Gretel adores Marcus, she has done so much better with walking since having him!”
5. Cindy H.
“We hired Cindy to walk our pup while we were on vacation. I was a little worried because we have an anxious pup who can be easily overwhelmed and slow to warm up to people. Cindy was great with him! By 2 days in he was so excited for his walks he was waiting for her at the door when she arrived. She gave him the time he needed to stop and sniff which helps him decompress. Since he is part lab she really tapped into those personality traits by walking him near water and places where he could see, smell and hunt around for small animals. She was punctual and sent pictures as well as a map of his walks everyday. I will definitely hire her again!”

I also am trained in holistic nutrition and can help your pup or kitty feel their best, if you’re looking for help in that department! I can’t wait to hear from you and meet your best friend! I have an extremely flexible work schedule and can make just about anything work! I am very hands on if that’s what your baby needs (and can be hands off if they’re more reserved). I am very hands on if that’s what your baby needs (and can be hands off if they’re more reserved). Having a parent away can be so stressful for a pet, so making sure they know they are cared for is my top priority!
7. Bobbie O.
About: Located in MONROE Hi, I grew up in a home that did dog boarding, I've literally been around this my whole life. I Foster rescue dogs. I can potty train, teach tricks, work on leash skills and door manners. I have toys treats and a big yard. My house is near the lake and we take them for walks multiple times a day. My neighbors are dog trainers or fellow pet lovers. If you need a safe place to keep your pup during work or over vacation we might be the right fit for you. I have an adopted Pitbull who is literally the friendliest dog in the entire world and great with other dogs. If your dog needs to be the only dog around our home might not be ideal. Just being honest. I want us both to have the best experience possible. Meet and greets are amazing to make sure we are on the same page and to make sure all parties involved get along as well. We only offer dog walks and drop ins locally as it's to costly to do that outside of the immediate area. If outside of the Monroe are please advise. My husband and I are both not working. We have all the free time to spend with your pet that you could want. We could do holidays weekends overnights. If there is something you'd like me to work on with your pup let me know! I have a large fenced in back yard in a dog friendly beach community. We take our dog on morning and evening walks with the addition of play time in the yard or inside if it's raining. We have treats toys and space to relax. I have toys for multiple chewing needs - super chewers or tiny nibbles. I have lots of free time and just want to help where I can.

10. Dawn K.

“Michele was great with our babies. They get nervous meeting new people, Michele handled them with ease. She also answered messages promptly and was here on time. Great experience!”
12. Helana J.
“Helana is a very thoughtful, attentive and extremely insightful pet owner. She has had dogs her whole life and has dedicated her time to educating herself as much as possible on everything dog related, including anything from dog behaviours to canine nutrition. She worked as a kennel technician and dog trainer over the course of multiple years and continues to expand her dog knowledge every day. I’ve trusted my dog who has extensive reactivity issues with Helana for years now and have nothing but the highest regard for the care she provides. Any dog owner would be lucky to have such a talented dog lover care for their pets.”
13. Alexandra V.
“Alex did a wonderful job taking care of our two dogs, one cat, and our house. When we came home, they were not waiting at the door like they missed us--they were calm and like they were every day! She was with them often, fed them, let them outside plenty, and played with them to the point where they didn't miss us too much. I was so glad to see they had so much attention in our absence! If I were going out of town again and needed someone, I'd pick her. She is a former student, and I picked her out of thousands of former students to care for our animals, two of which are seniors. Alex is pretty great!”
14. Chealsie B.
“Chealsie is a very responsible and loving pet owner. She’s great with dogs of all sizes and understanding of their needs. She has taken care of my 2 year old American Pit bull and 15 year old Pug plenty of times. She does great with the two of them, together and separate. I trust she is able to care for and positively help other owners who may need assistance with their pets also.”
15. Victoria S.
“Victoria is the best! I have two dogs that she regularly feeds, walks, lets outside, etc. when I’m stuck at work. She’s reliable and my pups love her and love not having to wait for me to get off work.”
16. Brooke J.
“Brooke was great! My dog had so much fun and was so tired from playing when I picked her up. Will definitely use her again if I have to leave town!”

19. Jenna F.
“I have known Jenna for years. She is kind and compassionate towards all animals. She has a big heart and will take great care of your four legged fur babies.

She made sure they were well cared for, received humane interaction, and I trusted her to administer their daily meds. Jenna is a gem!”
20. Allyson L.
