About: I have grown up with two dogs and two cats my whole life. I have helped my neighbor with their dog a few times, but I have mainly helped my parents the most. When they are gone on weekends or even for long weeks, I will watch all of our animals and help take care/look after them during the times they are gone. I have put 3 years of experience because I didn't start helping out as much till the end of high school and into college. I do work a part time summer job. My availability can change day to day. Reach out and I can be as flexible as possible. I have two dogs who are well fed and taken care of. I tend to play with them as much as possible and lay with them and give cuddles. My cats get the same treatment and all the animals are very very spoiled when it comes to toys, food, and love.

About: I've been taking care of dogs for about 5 years for friends and family. I walk, feed, and administer medication. I also love to play with your pups! We will play a lot of fetch, go to the dog park, make crafts, and get lots of belly rubs. I have also had to handle seizures on several occasions. I currently work full time in downtown Delaware from 8:00-4:30, give or take the commute to and from your home. However, my weekends typically consist of hanging out and giving pups lots of play time. I love getting out for a walk or the dog park when it’s nice. If it’s not nice outside, I love to cuddle with your pup and a movie. When at other homes, I keep the same level of respect I would expect from someone staying in my home. I respect privacy of homeowners and I always leave the house clean. I also provide lots of photos and videos of your pets playing, lounging, and walking.

Our dog Hank had a great drop in visit with Josh! He won’t stop asking when he’ll see his new friend again. Josh was great! His communication is stellar and he spent some good quality time with our boy.

Carol was awesome from the moment I met her! She communicated very well. I was always very prompt with responses to my tax and requests. She did a great job caring for my two cats, and I look forward to working with her again! She’s obviously an animal lover, and has lots of experience with animals.

About: I have two dogs of my own, a Newfoundland and a Border Collie/Aussie mix, so I’m very comfortable managing both giant breeds and high energy working dogs. Living with two very different personalities has given me hands on experience with grooming needs, exercise routines, training consistency, and understanding breed specific behaviors. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. From gentle giants to fast moving herders, I adapt my approach to what each dog needs to feel safe and happy. Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine. With two dogs at home, my days are structured around consistent feeding schedules, walks, exercise, training, and downtime. Because of this, adding additional pets into my schedule feels seamless rather than disruptive. I work remotely from home and have flexible hours, which allows me to accommodate drop in visits, walks, and overnight stays throughout the week. My schedule flexibility also means I can provide more consistent supervision and attention when needed. I prioritize reliability and clear communication, and I’m intentional about not overbooking so each pet receives the time and care they deserve. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday check ins, or evening visits, I build my schedule around the needs of the pets in my care. Safety, consistency, and respect are my top priorities when caring for pets in a client’s home. I follow each pet’s established routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, medications, and any household rules. Maintaining their normal structure helps reduce stress and keeps them comfortable while you’re away. I’m attentive to details, double check doors and gates, use secure leash handling, and prioritize calm, controlled walks. Through my volunteer work in service dog training and in shelter environments, I have experience working with groups of dogs in structured and higher stimulation settings. This has taught me how to read body language, manage energy levels, prevent conflict before it escalates, and handle situations calmly and confidently if tension arises. I provide regular updates and photos so you can feel connected and reassured while you’re away. My goal is always to create a safe, stable environment where your pet feels secure, understood, and well cared for in their own home.

About: Growing up with rescues and shelter dogs, ranging from 20-100lbs, I’ve always had a love for dogs. No matter what experience or pasts they have come from, I was always quick to form a bond with each pet my family and I have. Whether you are looking for someone to care for a senior dog needing a bit more patience and attention to medical needs, or an active and alert, playtime companion…you’ve found it with me! I have cared for family pets needing a special diet, set schedule and daily walks—to friends, coworkers and outside referrals for overnight stays or check in’s, and my favorite- walks! I believe that exercise is the best medicine and not to worry if your dog has certain triggers or lacks some leash manners. I can tailor walks to what your dog needs and enjoys. I can’t wait to meet your pup! I currently work in the office on a hybrid schedule 3x per week, so I have some flexibility during the week with times I can check in, and evenings are easy to schedule. My weekends are almost always available! In my home, I have a Pit/husky mix. However over the 8 years of being my own dog parent, I have hosted German shepards, Belgian malinois, hounds, and other pitbull mixes. I know how to administer medications and apply topical ointments if needed. I also understand if your pet(s) need certain accommodations or requests like avoiding other dogs on walks, and certain things he or she likes or doesn’t like.

About: I am a lifelong animal lover with extensive experience managing a diverse, multi-species household. I currently own and care for a 6-year-old beagle, a 10-year-old senior (and orange) cat, four guinea pigs, and two rescue rabbits. My daily life involves balancing a high-energy hound with the specialized care required for senior cats and small animals. Having managed this "mini-zoo" solo on numerous occasions, I am highly organized, observant of subtle health or behavioral changes, and strictly dedicated to following established routines. Whether your pet is a social pup or a shy rescue bunny, I pride myself on providing patient, attentive care that respects their boundaries and keeps them happy in the comfort of their own home. My schedule is highly flexible! As a college student taking online summer courses with only a very limited part-time retail job (1-2 shifts a week), I spend the vast majority of my day at home. This allows me to provide consistent companionship, frequent potty breaks, and plenty of attention for your pets. As a Type A student, I approach pet care with a "safety-first" mindset. I am CPR and Heimlich certified, ensuring I can stay calm and act effectively in an emergency. My 3.6 GPA reflects my discipline; I follow your care instructions and medication schedules to the letter, treating your house rules as my top priority. I am diligent about double-checking locks, gates, and alarm systems to keep your home and pets secure. I also offer frequent photo updates and clear communication so you never have to wonder about your pet's well-being. My goal is to leave your home exactly as I found it and your pets more relaxed than when you left.

I will open up availability for walking or drop-in visits during the evenings throughout the week. I will be able to watch your pets in your home as well as do drop-in visits in your home.

Gina is amazing!! I cannot say enough positive things. Our wild little kitten had just gotten his cast off after recovering from a bad broken leg and was barely putting weight on it. I was in a panic having to leave town unexpectedly and she put my mind at ease and took care of him like her own. She gave him his meds, spoon fed him his food as he was struggling to eat in his cone and kept him out of trouble, which isn’t an easy task. Gina truly went above and beyond and we are very grateful.

This was our first time using Shirine, we had just come out of a bad situation with another dog sitter and Shirine stepped in and up big time. She was punctual, she spent quality time with our girl. She sat with her, brushed her, walked her to mailbox and sang to her. I highly recommend her . We used her for drops ins 4 times a day. She is also reasonably priced. Gerry G
