About: I absolutely love animals and am committed to taking care of and loving your pets. I have had an English Bulldog for 3 years now, so I am accustomed to both the playfulness of a puppy and the stubbornness of a bulldog. I have been around the block with doggy health issues and training, so I am more than happy to accommodate special training or care requests. While I do not have an inclosed yard, I would love to take your dog to the dog park or out for walks if requested. I would always have your dog on a leash whenever we are not in an inclosed area. I am willing to board/dog sit two dogs from the same household although my profile says differently. It just depends on the size, breed, and age of the dogs.

Christina watched our cat for three weeks while we were gone and faithfully spent time with him. She even went above and beyond on a day when she didn’t need to be here when a tornado went through our town and we were concerned about our cat and our house.

Mary provided good updates on the Rover cards sent out after each visit. She arrived and left at the exact time frames she said she would. She made efforts to gain our cats trust and we came back from vacation to a calm/happy cat.

About: I have taken care of animals my whole life. As a kid, I had pet rabbits, which required special care and maintenance. Due to this, I am used to working with unconventional pets and caring for them. I also have experience with senior dogs and dogs that require daily doses of medicine. I am a student who mainly takes online courses, which means I can be with your furry friend for the majority of the day and week. This also means on weekends I can prioritize your pets and their care. I set many alarms and reminders to ensure that feeding times stay consistent. As well as I am comfortable crating dogs and other animals. I also always leave time to give any affectionate pets the love and attention they deserve.

Took out visit on very short notice and was incredibly kind to me and my pet. She took her time and made sure she was comfortable and happy each time she visited. I'd absolutely recommend her for your pet care needs!

About: I grew up with cats and dogs my whole life. As an adult, I’ve adopted a cat and dog from a local animal shelter and hope to foster in the near future. I will work my day job M-F so will spend my weekends taking care of furry friends. Occasionally, I will make my weekdays available when I have the opportunity to do so. I have taken care of neighbor’s pets for years while they are gone on vacation and have gone above and beyond in taking their dogs for walks and providing them with necessary attention. With cats, I have also cleaned litter boxes, played with them, and provided several updates for their parents.

About: I would love to take care of your pet! I can accommodate whatever care requests needed! I have a comfy home and a golden doodle that would love a friend! I work from home so I have plenty of time to watch your pet, feed them on a schedule, walk them, and give them potty breaks. I have a fenced in backyard they can play in, and a very comfy house where I let animals on the furniture and there’s also plenty of toys for them to play with!

About: I’m a dependable animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all sizes and temperaments. I’ve spent a lot of time around dogs, cats, and other small animals, and I’m comfortable handling feeding schedules, exercise, playtime, and basic care routines. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to watch their pets because I treat every animal like my own—making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. My goal is always to provide a calm, reliable environment where pets get plenty of attention, activity, and love. I was laid off a few months ago from my last job so I have plenty of time to care and love your dog. My home is also spacious and I have a large fenced in back yard with a back porch. I have a fenced in backyard with plenty of room. I also live in a reasonably sized home and have two young children that will love and play with them. I will have a crate if you want me to crate your dog. If not, they will be able to hangout with me or on a dog bed! 😊

Krysta took good care of my 2 cats for a full week and even took care of watering my plants for me! She sent updates on any changes that might have occurred between visits; I always knew that my animals were safe and well taken care of. So glad she was here to take care of them while I was away.

About: What sets me apart is my experience and confidence with dogs of all sizes, especially large and high-energy breeds. As a dog owner myself, I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs. I take the time to build trust, provide plenty of attention, and make sure pets feel safe and comfortable while you're away. Special skills include handling large breeds, leash walking strong pullers, and administering oral medications. I believe in positive, patient interactions and treating every pet as if they were my own. As a stay-at-home mom, my toddler accompanies me during some visits and walks. Because of this, I can only accept bookings for dogs that are child-friendly and non-child-reactive. Your pet’s safety, my child’s safety, and positive interactions for everyone involved are my top priorities. Thank you for understanding! Caring for pets is part of my everyday routine. As the owner of both a Chihuahua and a Rottweiler, I’m experienced with dogs of all sizes and energy levels. My flexible schedule allows me to provide reliable care, consistent attention, and plenty of love to every pet I meet. When caring for pets in a client’s home or on walks, I prioritize safety, trust, and consistency. I treat every pet as if they were my own, paying close attention to their behavior, comfort, and individual needs. I follow all instructions carefully, maintain a calm and positive environment, and ensure pets feel secure while their owners are away. On walks, I stay alert to my surroundings, use safe handling practices, and make your pet’s well-being my top priority. My goal is to provide dependable, loving care that gives both pets and their owners peace of mind.

About: I'm Aubreya and I work from home as a financial analyst. My friends and family have referred to me as a dog whisperer, as I tend to immediately fall in love and build great relationships with fur babies! Plus I know all the best spots to scratch! Over the years I have been a reliable pet-sitter for many friends, neighbors and family members and I would love the opportunity to do the same for you. I currently have a 6 y/o yorkie-schnauzer and a 5 y/o great pyrenees-springer spaniel. My care giving style is relaxed, attentive and loving. I will follow your directions and pet needs to the letter. After completion of my services, I will ensure that your home is left clean and provide you with a detailed report of my stay. Since I work from home, I am able to provide full time care for housesitting as long as you have Wifi. I am typically available on weekends and also able to do drop-ins with a bit of notice. I would ask for detailed information on your pet(s) routine so that I can follow it precisely. Everything that I do is based soley on the need of you and your dog, so that I can provide an accommodating and positive experience.

About: I genuinely enjoy caring for and spending time with animals, and believe it is extremely important that all animals are treated with the upmost care! I would love to be responsible for taking care of any animal! My schedule is fully available during weekdays! I am more limited on weekends, but feel free to ask! I am more than happy to assist you and your animal’s needs in a timely manner! Care for each pet can vary at times, but care first starts with understanding the personality of the animal that you are caring for. Aside from keeping them well fed, hydrated, exercised, and safe, there is an important emotional side to the care as well.

About: Hello!! My names Tatum I’ve taken care of pets my whole life, my best friend when i was born was a weenie dawg, but i’ve had 4 dogs total in my life. I currently have 3 cuddly cats and a 1yr old, big ol handsome lab! I can do day or overnight sitting in my own apartment, I know there’s no straight access to a backyard :(( but i take my dog to the apartments dog park twice a day for 30-90mins. My apartment also has a nice big field right outside my door that i take them to go potty as many times needed! I live with my fiance and we work opposite shifts so someone is always awake! I don’t have any experience with shot medications but i sure know how to hide a pill in some chicken or cheese! We have plenty of toys to play with and my lab LOVES making new friends, he always has a ton of energy to keep your furr baby busy! If your dog needs to be crated or isn’t crate trained i can accommodate that, i have big crate here or you’re welcome to bring your own. Im available for overnight boarding/day sitting on the weekends (Fri@4:00pm - Sun@11:00pm) I work full time(M-F) 2 minutes away from my apartment and can go home on breaks. And they wouldn’t mind if i needed to leave for 10 minutes for a potty break. So if you absolutely need me to watch on a weekday i can make accommodations. My fiance will be home during the day since he works an opposite shift but probably asleep. I also have a camera in the living room. We can crate if crate trained if you feel more comfortable with that! My puppy had a bad chewing habit when he was little, so we only keep the floors clean (except for toys of course) I can easily crate your dog if needed. Dogs are allowed on furniture for maximum cuddles :)
