Pet Sitting in Sterling

About: Hello! I’ve worked at a doggy daycare for a year and a half! I have experience with feedings, giving different types of medicine, and handling! I work full time as a child welfare assistant! My schedule is pretty flexible. Afternoons work best for my schedule! I’m always open for discussing mornings! I have had pets my whole life, and have a lot of experiencing with caring for animals. I would treat them as if they’re my own!

About: multiple years in animal shelter care, experience as a veterinarian assistant, aspiring veterinary student wide variety of experience: puppies - senior care, as well as experience with fearful/reactive animals As of now, I would be able to walk or drop in on dogs as needed. I am a student having summers off, which makes my schedule flexible. I understand that our animals may feel more comfortable in their own home. Unfortunately, my own pets don’t allow for play dates at my house. I am more than willing to spend time with your pups in the comfort of your own home.

About: I’ve taken care of many animals for some time now whether it be lizards, cats, dogs, or fish. Family and friends could always put their trust in me when I take care of their pets. I own a cat so I take care of him daily, feed him twice a day, give him toys, bathe him ever so often (depending if he goes outside), brush him because he has long fur. So he fits right in with my schedule and I give him cuddles all the time! I care for my pet everyday! I feed him twice a day ( morning and night) maybe a few treats, I’ll bathe him when needed but not too often cause it hurts their fur coat, clip his nails when needed, brush him just about everyday. I will especially give him cuddles whenever I see him!

“Danae was a sweet person and my fur babies loved her. I would recommend her 100% to anyone.”

About: I’ve taken care of numerous pets of different kinds for over 20 years. Not counting my own animals. I’ve also cared for elderly and special needs pets. Im available most the time during the summer. Ask me for my availability and I will approve dog sitting where I can. Please just ask. I have a fenced in back yard. I currently do not have a dog but I do have two cats. They are mostly dog friendly. Meaning they hide in the basement.

About: I have had dogs for over 30 years, including a Dalmatian, American Eskimo, and Australian Shepherd-all high energy dogs. I’ve also dog sat for friends and family when they’ve gone on vacation. I am a calm, caring, and active person who will love your dog like my own. I teach part time in the morning, every other day. Other than that, I have plenty of time to take your dog on walks, play ball, and feed them. I have a fenced in yard, quiet neighborhood, and plenty of dog toys to keep your puppy/dog happy. I also have a two year old Australian shepherd that can be a playmate to other friendly dogs if the dogs are socialized. In case of bad weather, we have plenty of room in our house to accommodate another dog.

“We met Janelle before we left on vacation. She is a wonderful woman and we were happy to have her taking care of Frank and Luna. I highly recommend her and we plan on using her in the future.”

About: Make sure I care for the dogs how I would want my dogs to be cared for, I get along with dogs really well I create a close bond and making sure they are healthy and safe. During lunch and after 3 is when I have my focus on the dogs. Making sure they get play time and fed properly is really important to me. If they have strictly rules that I follow what care they want their dog to get. Making sure they get let out, walked, feed, and of course playing time.

“Destiny was great! And Gabby got to stay home and cared for.”

About: I'm a Vet Tech who has been caring for animals for a very long time and have tons of experience. Not only do I have knowledge on animals, but I also have a strong passion and love for all of them! Spending time with animals, walks, and play time is very important for pets, so i'm very pleased and willing to help owners out with needs. Feel free to ask me any questions you may have, I am very flexible and willing to work with you. I look forwards to hearing from you and getting the chance to be a part of your pets life! Any size, any energy level, any issues, I've seen it all, so please do not be hesitant when reaching out. My boyfriend and I also enjoy doing this together and work around each others schedules and take turns with visits or usually go together for new clients. I currently work full time so I prefer to do in home pet sitting when needed. I have many previous experiences doing this and feel the pets are more comfortable this way. Pet safety is extremely important whether making sure they are staying within a fenced in yard or being walked outside properly on a leash. I do my very best to ensure safety.
