About: I've had the wonderful experience of caring for the many animals at the humane society including dogs, cats, bunnies, mice, and birds. I've had the chance to bond with animals with a variety of different personalities and background stories. I also have administered medication and cared for animals with different medical needs including chronic kidney disease. I hope to bring my experience and passion for animals to better serve your feline and canine friends. I hope to dedicate plenty of time to spend taking care of your animal companions. I am available in the early mornings and all throughout the day. In addition to feeding and changing the litter box, I hope to check in on your animals to make sure they are comfortable and there are no hazardous items around. I hope to spend some time socializing and playing with them if they up for it! Otherwise, a friendly hello will do.
“Alyssa walked my German Shepherd this week while I was at work. She handled an energetic young dog well and was let me know how he was doing. I highly recommend her for your dog.”
“Tere is an excellent provider. She is easy to communicate with, is prompt, and went above and beyond to make sure my dogs were comfortable and extremely well-taken care of. Highly recommend.”
About: I’ve loved and cared for animals my whole life. Friends, family, and peers trust me to take care of their pets while they’re away. I made sure that they returned home better than ever like they went on a vacation too! I have experience with high-energy pups to senior dogs and can adapt to their personality and pace. I enjoy caring for animals from walking, playing, administering medication, grooming, and providing a calm space. What find most important is being patient and attentive to what your pet specifically needs. My top priority is always keeping pets happy and healthy. I’m currently on a break from school and not working on anything else. My dog, cat, and turtle keep me company in the house. I enjoy daily walks, visiting the park, and sunset outings. Rain or shine I’m available to go on walks, have playtime, visit parks, or give cozy cuddles. I’d be happy to take dogs out to walk wherever they’re most comfortable. I can also assist with grooming, clean up, take in mail, water plants, or any other tasks. I’m currently not taking pets into my home but I am willing to travel.
About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. When I was younger, I even started my own neighborhood dog-walking service, handing out flyers and building relationships with local families who trusted me to enter their homes and walk and care for their dogs regularly. I’m extremely comfortable around dogs of all sizes and personalities, as well as cats. I’m active, dependable, and patient, and my background in coaching has made me very responsible, consistent, and comfortable handling different personalities and energy levels. I’ll treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure owners always feel comfortable and updated while their pet is in my care. I currently work remotely, which gives me flexibility for walks and drop-in visits throughout the day. I’m especially available in the mornings, midday, and early afternoons, and I can often accommodate recurring weekly schedules. I’m also available for select evenings and weekends depending on the booking. I take every pet’s safety and routine seriously. I’m comfortable entering clients’ homes, following detailed feeding and care instructions, handling leashes and harnesses, and caring for dogs of different sizes and energy levels. I always make sure doors and gates are secure, keep pets supervised, and provide updates so owners know their pet is safe and well cared for.
“We had a fantastic experience with Peter! He was incredibly easy to work with and responded right away, even on short notice. Although we didn’t meet in person, we felt completely at ease thanks to clear communication and the videos we sent him in advance. Peter went above and beyond by sharing lots of great photos of our dog, Captain, during their time together—which really put our minds at ease. Captain absolutely loved him, and it showed! We’re so grateful for Peter’s care and look forward to booking with him again in the future. Highly recommend!”
About: I have watched pets most of my life of friends, and family. I take the time to get to know their personalities, routines, and special needs, because I believe every pet deserves personalized care and attention. I have a traditional 9–5 job Monday to Thursday and work from home on Fridays. Morning would feed and walk. Lunch would be midday walk, which my job is about 10 minute from home. Evening would be walk, spending play time and evening feeding. Weekends I’m home spending time with pet. I have plenty of room to accommodate your pets space. I can also crate if you want. I also have a large front yard for play time. There are sidewalks all through town, which is close to my home for walks.
“April was so nice and our girls loved her. Very easy to work with! She took them both on long walks and didn’t mind their puppy energy at all. We will def use her again!! Thank you very much April for taking good care of our girls.”
About: Hello! I’ve been caring for dogs since my own pup was just 8 weeks old. From fun off-leash adventures to cozy times at home, I’ve helped my dog grow into a friendly, well-socialized little buddy. I also enjoy walking g and looking after my brother’s dogs (medium and larger size). I always make sure each pet gets the attention they deserve and it makes me happy to see them happy and cared for. Thank you for reading this and I can’t wait to help you too. I’m currently taking a break from my professional career to spend some more time at home with both my children and pup. My kids are teens and at school during the day so I have time for extra dog walks and care. I have a fully fenced in large backyard and my Cockapoo pup is super friendly around both people and other dogs. I’d want to meet and greet before caring for your pup to ensure we are all comfortable and I understand how you’d like me to care for your pet in your home or around your neighborhood.
“Sarah really loves animals and it shows in how she cares for Winnie when she boards or walks her. I trust Sarah’s judgement and know my dog is being cared for in my a sense. It’s very hard to find professional pet care and I feel very lucky to have met Sarah!”
About: I currently have two shih tzus myself. I am very familiar with picky eaters and stubborn walkers. I am extremely patient and will love your pet as much as you do! I know how stressful it could be to leave your pet and having someone you can trust is key to enjoying yourself. Sitting and walking pups brigs joy to my life! I am a nurse and only work three days so I have a very flexible schedule. I love the dog parks and love walking around town seeing all the cute pups. My previous dog had a seizure disorder which made me extremely comfortable in administering medications. I understand elderly dogs as well. Any needs your pet has I would be happy to do so!!
About: I’ve been surrounded by pets my entire life and have spent the last 7 years providing care for dogs and cats through referrals from friends, family, and neighbors. What sets me apart is the personal attention I give each pet. I treat them like part of my own family. I take the time to understand their routines, personalities, and unique needs to ensure they feel safe, loved, and at ease while you’re away. Whether it’s a playful pup, a shy cat, or a senior pet needing a little extra attention. Your pet’s comfort and happiness are always my top priorities. My remote job allows me the flexibility to build my schedule around the needs of the pets I care for, whether that means early morning walks, midday playtime, or evening check-ins. Whether I’m caring for pets in my own home or in a client’s home, I always strive to create a calm, comfortable, and safe environment. I follow each pet’s routine closely, feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any special instructions, this way they feel secure and cared for even when their humans are away.
“Julianna was great! Would definitely recommend. She is very kind and professional. She updated me after the walk on how Bella did and checked to make sure Bella had enough water in her bowl.”
