About: I love animals, and also enjoy taking care of them. I have previously taken care of guinea pigs, hamsters, fish, cats, and dogs. I love their company and enjoy playing with them as well. For now, pet care fits in any part of my schedule since I am on break for a while. I enjoy walking dogs, playing with cats, etc. My home is very clean and spacious. Most of the furniture is simple, so there are no hazards or dangers. I also have a spacious fenced backyard, and I also enjoy walking in the neighborhood.
About: We have been taking care of animals our entire life (both born on a farm). My [Jessica] love for animals led me to 4H at age 8 but I left that and started volunteering in shelters when I was 14 and I have been doing that and fostering ever since. In February 2022 I joined the Clermont County TNR team (Trap/Neuter/Return feral cats) and also opened up a cat rescue to help adopt through our team. I have cared for neighbors cats and dogs both in my homes and theirs where I would feed/walk/give attention to their pets. I am currently a stay at home mom of four so I have a pretty open schedule on when I am available during the week. In clients homes we follow the list they have either left at their home or messaged me ahead of time for us to follow on how their animals are use to be cared for to help make them as less stressed as possible. For our house we ask for a list of when the animal eats, bathroom routine, and anything the animal does/doesn’t like I am a stay at home mom of four my kids are all in school so I have availability Monday-Friday and on the weekends. Available all holidays I follow instructions left for the care of that pet. In my home I ensure a safe environment by not feeding together and following what clients tell me about their furbaby
About: I have loved animals all my life. I think they really are a part of a family, and they deserve to be absolutely spoiled and shown all the love they can take I am self-employed so I have a very flexible schedule. I don’t work a regular 9 to 5 so I am home longer than the average person I make sure to take care of all of their needs. Make sure they are fed, always have water, entertained, played with, loved on and completely taken care of
About: I’ve been caring for/living with dogs since my teens! Always joke with my friends (who agree) saying that I was probably a dog in every life but this one! Your family member is in good hands with me 😊 I work mostly early hours at my full time job, and am available most late afternoons. Pet care is not just work for me, I love animals. Caring for your family member is not just a job, but a genuine passion. *I am able to house/pet sit overnight on Fridays beginning at 5pm. Unfortunately the calendar won’t allow me to adjust individual hours during the day.* I live close to trails and parks in Fairfax! No pets allowed in my apartment currently. But I can care for your pet in your home or follow instructions on what you’d like to do!

About: Hi there! I'm a graduate student working toward my PsyD in Clinical Psychology, and I'm looking to earn a little extra doing something I truly love — caring for animals. I grew up raising my parents' Chihuahua mostly on my own, and if you've ever met a Chihuahua, you know they can be quite the character! Thanks to that experience, I’m very comfortable reading a dog's body language and adjusting my approach to help them feel safe and understood. At this point, I’m confident I can connect with any dog — and all of my experiences so far have only strengthened that belief. I hope you can appreciate my sense of humor and passion for animals, and I’d love the opportunity to meet (and care for) your furry friend! Since I'm currently in graduate school, my class schedule changes every few weeks. I'll make sure to keep my availability updated regularly and be open and honest about any changes. As of right now, I don't have classes, but during the summer, I'lI have classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays Whether I'm caring for pets in my home or in yours, I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment tailored to each animal's needs. I follow any instructions you provide closely, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, medications, and preferred activities. I also make sure to spend plenty of quality time with your pet, whether that means playtime, walks, cuddles, or just keeping them company. When caring for pets in my home, I offer a calm, pet-friendly space with lots of supervision and attention. If I’m caring for them in your home, I aim to keep their routine as normal as possible to reduce stress — including maintaining familiar smells, spaces, and schedules. My goal is always to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for while you're away!
About: I have been trained in the pet department for country maxx! I work independent contract gigs full time and I have a very flexible schedule! I am a full-time aid to a young woman who loves animals. I work from 9am-4pm on weekdays, and am completely free on weekends! For day checks and walks, I can bring along the woman I care for as long as I have your permission. I can not offer night services at my apartment, but I will gladly house sit or check on your pups at night! I'm a super flexible person who is always looking for new opportunities!
About: From the first moments I could remember, I have always been around and caring for dogs and cats. I'm also a professional equine bodyworker, with medical experience that is easily translated over to our smaller, 4-legged friends. I take a gentle and intuitive approach with animals, focusing on positive reinforcement. I will care for your pets as if they were my own. I have plenty of flexibility in my schedule. If staying at your home, I will never be gone for more than 8 hrs at a time. Weekends are usually no issue to schedule around either While staying at your home, I stick to the routine you have developed with your pets to make it as stress-free as possible. I recognize the importance of structure with dogs and cats, and losing that while their humans are away can be a big stressor. I will do my best to act as an extension of you while you are away to ensure the most personalized care.
About: I’ve had family dogs for my entire life! I currently own a sweetest dog named Rocky! Everyday I feel like I get to attached with them more than I do with people! Love taking them out on a walk, dog park, or wherever they want me to take them! I have a summer break until like beginning of September! Would rather have weekends to myself until 2-4pm! If you need me during weekends we could definitely make it work! I live in an apartment so it would be better if your fur babies want to stay at their homes! I can do whatever works the best for them!

I’m very communicative and happy to share updates and pictures while you’re away, so you can feel assured that your pets are well cared for!!

About: I worked and eventually managed a dog daycare for over a year. I have been walking and pet sitting for over 4 years. Big, small, young, or old- I guarantee we’ll have a blast!:) Most of my work is remote meaning my schedule is already pretty flexible. Any schedule you send for your pet will be followed strictly or I will notify you beforehand. Ensure a comfortable relaxed and calming environment for your pets. I’m good with any cameras in home I’d just prefer to know ahead of time.
