“April is a pro at this job! She thinks ahead while I-the cat owner - am worried about last minutes things to pack 😊. We had a great meet and greet which made me confident about the care our cat needs. All went smoothly and perfectly at home while we were away. April sent pictures and comments at every visit 🙏”

From playful pups to shy kitties, I provide reliable, loving, and attentive care tailored to each pet’s needs. I’m a current student with a part-time job, so I’m available for boarding and house sitting on weekends, and I can also do midday and nighttime check-ins to make sure your pet gets the attention they need. You can feel confident knowing your home and your pets are in trustworthy, respectful hands. I take pride in providing reliable, attentive care and treating every pet and home with the utmost professionalism and respect.

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities since I was young. Over the years, neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and provide loving attention to their pets. I’m patient, dependable, and comfortable with puppies, and seniors. My goal is always to make every pet feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’m currently just in school, so I have plenty of time to dedicate to your pup! I’m available most weekdays after [time], and I can also help on weekends. I’m happy to do walks, drop-ins, or overnight stays, and I can be flexible with your schedule. I love spending time with animals and making sure they get all the care, play, and attention they need. I live on a spacious property with plenty of open land for dogs to explore and enjoy. While I don’t have a fenced yard, I always supervise pets closely and make sure they stay safe at all times. I have one friendly dog who loves having company, and I can crate your pup if needed. I follow any routines, rules, or preferences you share so your pet feels comfortable, secure, and right at home.

“Thanks again for taking care of the dogs on short notice!”

As a current pet owner of two dogs and 1 cat, I understand the importance of providing animals with attentive, loving, and reliable care.

Today, I am a proud parent to a cat and two Holland Lop rabbits! Because I have lived alongside animals my whole life, I excel at reading their body language, vocal cues, and unique personalities. I am ready to provide a premium, loving, and safe environment for your babies!" I'm newly a father and am currently on paid family leave, and am available most days.

About: My name is Emily and I would like to help you with your pet in anyway I can. Services including taking them on a walk or jog, house sitting, coming in for a hour or two to make sure they are fed and doing well or whatever else you may need assistance with. I have personally had pets around me my whole life. Since a young age I have always been interested in animals and making them my new friend. My most happiest moments were playing and cuddling with dogs and cats. I know how to walk, bathe, feed, and play with animals but to be honest I do not really have any special skills but I do hope I can care and make your pet as happy as they make me feel.

“She was very nice and my cat seemed to really like her. We were nervous to leave him alone for so long but seeing how well he warmed up to her really eased our nerves.”

About: I’ve been around cats and dogs. I’ve taken care of my childhood dog and my parents three dogs. I also have a pet cat that I had for two years. I am passionate about exercising the dogs needs such as frequent walks, enrichments, and making sure to sneak in their medicine! One of my parents dogs needs to take medicine everyday and often times I do help. The same energy goes towards cats, I believe enriching and making sure they take their medicine is important! Since I intend to further my higher education, my routine and schedule is open and flexible for any pet care services that is needed for my clients. I care for pets in my home by making sure they have all their needs; any bedding, medicine, water, food, and enrichment toys. To add, making sure the pets cannot get into places or items that can be dangerous to them. If it’s within the clients home, I will make sure with the client of the proper medication to the right per, a list on what/how much they should be fed and their schedule, and any walking schedule the client insists on. Of course, providing adequate enrichment that involves treats/rewards!

About: ******Previous Clients**** -Please message me if you do not see any availability on my calendar, and I will try my best to accommodate you. 💕 At this time, I do not allow parents in my home due to safety reasons and COVID. I am able to provide your fur baby with all the attention and love they will need while you are away. Also, I do not believe in caging animals, and your dog will be able to roam my house like their own. Though many people believe that it does not take a lot of experience to be good at dog sitting, it actually requires a number of skills. Consider first, how much you love your pets, and how you would feel if they were lost, taken for granted, and/or mistreated by an individual you are paying. This is why you must have a candidate who knows about different breeds of dogs, is on time, and know how to care for dogs in feeding, playing, and walking dogs. Moreover, they must love dogs-otherwise all will be amiss. I have been dog sitting as a profession for over eight years, and 15 years before that for my own dogs. I love animals, and have all the skills and experience you might need in a candidate.
