About: As well as having my own Dog at home I have also cared for many others little or big Fur babies! I have walked, played with, simply spent time with, fed, gave medicine and the most important of all have given all of the love and affection a fur baby will need while they await the arrival of their mommas and/or daddy’s.

I care for animal in any clients home based on exactly what their pets are In need of which is explained to me by the clients themselves, whatever the pet needs is exactly what they will get and more.

About: I've had cats and dogs since the day I was born. I spent years giving my 14 year old dog insulin injections until he passed. I have cared for neighbors' and family members' newborn puppies and senior dogs. I can give medication, feed, and transport your pets to your specifications, and most of all I love animals! I am enrolled in high school until May 2026, over the summer I will work from around 8am-4pm. My schedule is very flexible, so I can check on or care for pets during that time! I have two friendly dogs, who can be kept separate from your pet, they are typically in crates when indoors. I own two cats that are very friendly and typically avoid other cats or dogs. I have a large unfenced yard, and lots of space indoors! I can give doses of medication if necessary, feed 3+ times a day, and I know the importance of staying hydrated, so I will always keep the water bowl full! Let me know if you have any questions.

About: Hi! I love all kinds of animals and I look forward to helping you when you need to trust someone to take care of your pets while you are away. I currently have 2 indoor/outdoor dogs, and 5 (yes, 5!) indoor cats. I do have a part time job I work at from 3 pm to 11 pm on Sundays and Mondays. I always ask for a meet and greet before booking any bookings, except for same day bookings, and this would be a time where you let me know if you have any cost constraints. I do have a job working two days out of the week, but I have an amazing friend who works with me for pet care needed when I am working for the 16 hours a week. Let us help you by taking a little work and worry off your shoulders! I have 10+ acres ready for some exploring! I also have some outdoor toys to entertain the playful babies. I have two playful pups that are always down for company. I can crate your pet if needed.

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was a 8 years old. I specialize in senior dog care and special needs care. I love all animals. I'm at home full - time. I'm available 24/7 to take care of your pet and love on them as if they were my own. I would take your dog out on a leash everytime for potty breaks. My dog, Chico, uses a tie out chain, but that's his routine and only used for him. I would personally take your pet on a leash and never let them out of my sight. If your pet needed to be in a crate, I have a small size and medium size. I let animals on furniture for naps and cuddles and on the bed for any overnight stays.

About: I’ve grown up around multiple animals, having dogs and cats and other exotic animals. I also used to watch neighbor’s pets if they needed me to. Pet care fits into my daily routine because I am a college student who is always on the move and looking for new adventures to go on! I do not offer pet sitting in my own home due to living in an apartment with roommates, but depending on your living situation I always make it fun for the animal wether that’s playing outside or going on a walk.

About: I have had experience working on a farm with a variety of animals. I also worked at a boarding resort for dogs and cats where I followed feeding schedules, worked with fearful and aggressive dogs and cats, and played with animals residing there. My major in college is animal science with a concentration of pre-veterinarian. I am currently in college taking animal science courses and working around animals weekly. I have pets of my own as well and watch them on a day to day basis. I make sure to build a foundation of trust with the animal before anything. I want your pet to feel comfortable and safe around me and that involves taking things slow and making sure they are comfortable with me. I will feed and water your pet, take them on walks and play with them and make sure they get the exercise needed. Not only that but it depends on how the owner prefers things. If an animal is injured, I won’t over exercise them and do small things like taking a few steps to walk. As long as your pet feels comfortable, safe, and happy!
