Ian is great with our girls. They have nothing but smiles after every walk with him and he is always so helpful when we find ourselves in a pinch, from giving the girls another walk when we where stuck at the airport to even learning how to feed our bearded dragons for when we go on vacation. We are very very happy with Ian and will continue to book with him for sure.

About: It would be my honor to walk, play with, cuddle, protect and care for your furry family member! I have adopted and cared for numerous dogs and cats my entire life. I believe pets bring out the best in us. I look forward to meeting you and your pet and providing the best of care. Let's Woof It Up! I am available full time for all of your pet care needs. I am a full time pet care professional. I gave up the corporate world to run with the animals. My world has literally gone to the dogs! I have a fenced yard and a friendly dog that loves playmates! I have plenty of toys and plenty of love. Days will be filled with walks around the neighborhood for exercise, playtime in the fenced yard, a swim in the inflatable pool, or just relaxing under a shady tree. It will be a nice, warm, inviting and safe retreat for your pet, far from their usual 9-5 grind.

About: I have professional dog care experience from working at Hounds Town, where I managed dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels in safe group and individual settings. I’m also Dog Management Level 2 certified, with training in dog behavior, handling, and safety. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I’m used to planning my schedule around dogs’ needs like walks, feeding, playtime, and consistent attention from my experience at Hounds Town. I also have a rescue dog of my own who requires extra patience and understanding, so I’m very comfortable caring for shy, anxious, or nervous dogs who may require more time to become comfortable. Providing calm, attentive, and reliable care is something I truly enjoy and prioritize every day. For drop-in visits, I follow your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, and quality time with play or affection based on their personality. I want them to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. During walks, I prioritize safety with secure leash handling and awareness of our surroundings. I adjust each walk to your dog’s pace and energy level. Whether that’s an active walk or a relaxed stroll with time to sniff. I also send updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is happy and in good hands.

About: I have experience taking care of pets, as I have owned a dog myself. I've worked in animal care most of my career, working for institutions such as The Buffalo Zoo, Hidden Valley Animal Adventure, Pet Supplies Plus, dog kennels, etc. I love being around animals, and intend to do so the rest of my life! I'm currently working as a personal trainer at Catalyst Fitness, so I am needed when clients have training sessions. However, this will never extend for more than a few hours (at most maybe 4-5) at a time. So even if I need to go to a training session(s), I can be right back to take care of the animals afterwards! I can constantly provide your pets with enrichment. Whether that be through walking, playing, or just general outside time. I love nature/the environment, so I love getting outdoors. So if that's what your pets enjoy I can absolutely provide! However, I realize animals have a wide spectrum of emotions and preferences, so I am very flexible to provide whatever is best for your pets!

About: I've fostered and trained 14 puppies until they found their forever homes, with organizations like R.A.R.E Rescue and Big Fluffy Dog Rescue. I especially love teaching puppies tricks, such as "sit," "spin," "come here," I can teach them to recognize their names, and I can potty and crate train as well. I used to volunteer at the Nashville Humane Society walking and socializing dogs and cats, and I have experience taking care of animals with special needs or special medical instructions. I love taking pictures of cute moments and will make sure any animal staying with me is loved and cared for! I've had both cats, dogs, and a snake as pets, and I have experience petsitting other animals for neighbors such as different reptiles, ferrets, and bunnies, so I'm definitely capable of taking care of any animal with specific instructions. I am self-employed and work from home, so pet care fits perfectly into my schedule. I have flexible hours and can be available for last minute requests. I also have a car to swing by at any time to take dogs on walks throughout the day or even drive to a dog park. I just moved to New York from Tennessee, so I'm a little new to the area. If you have any special requests, I'd love to help out in any way I can!

About: I offer reliable, compassionate dog care backed by a lifetime of hands-on experience. Having grown up around dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments, I understand their needs, behaviors, and the importance of patience and trust. Whether it’s daily walks, drop-in visits, or extended care, I treat every dog like family, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and well-cared for while you’re away. My goal is simple: give you peace of mind and give your dog the attention, exercise, and affection they deserve. I'm currently working part-time and am looking to fill the gaps in my schedule with some time well spent, loving and playing with some furry friends! I am also flexible for overnight stays if worked out with ample time in advance! I tailor my care to each pet’s routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free in their own environments. For walks, I make sure your dog gets safe, engaging exercise at their own pace, along with fresh water and plenty of attention before I leave. I am also willing to take your dog to a dog park for some interactive time with others, if this is a suitable/desirable option for you. For overnight stays, I maintain their normal schedule as closely as possible, feeding, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions you provide, while also keeping your home tidy and secure. Having grown up around dogs, I’m attentive to their behavior and needs, so you can feel confident they’re in capable, caring hands while you’re away!

About: I’ve had pets growing up my entire life! The level of personal care I give every animal sets me apart. I don’t just feed and walk your pets — I take time to understand their routines, personalities, and quirks so they feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply quiet companionship, I tailor my care to match what each pet needs most. I treat every furry friend like my own, keeping you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is in loving, reliable hands. I’m a stay at home mom and I’m home pretty much everyday. So I have plenty of time and energy to play with your pet! When your pet stays with me, they’re treated like part of the family. My home is safe, welcoming, and full of love, and each pet gets the individual attention they deserve. We make sure every animal feels comfortable, happy, and cared for. • Family Time & Play: Your pet enjoys playtime, cuddles, and fun activities with all of us. • Feeding & Health: I follow your pet’s routine, including meals and medications, to keep them healthy and comfortable. • Exercise & Adventure: Dogs enjoy walks, yard play, and indoor games, while cats and smaller pets get enriching activities tailored just for them. • Comfort & Safety: Your pet will have cozy spaces to rest and feel secure with our family. I have a huge backyard for play and plenty of room inside our home. . Pet Care At Clients Home: When I take care of pets in your home, my goal is to provide love, attention, and consistency while respecting your pet’s routine. I treat your home and pets as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable. • Updates for You: We love sending photos and messages so you can see your pet thriving while you’re away. My goal is to make sure every pet in my home feels loved, safe, and happy—just like they would with their own family.

About: Hello! I started pet-sitting seriously in graduate school and had a consistent base of clients for two years. Later, I volunteered at a local humane society where I cared for and interacted with cats and dogs multiple times a week, for three years. This experience taught me a great deal more about dogs, including behaviors, breed traits, and exercise needs. While it's not my profession, animal care-taking has definitely become my passion! I treat every animal exactly how they want to be treated. Sometimes that is a lot of love and affection, but sometimes there are cats who like their distance! Whatever your animal needs, I'm happy to accommodate them. I have an extreme flexible schedule, and I can help with mid-day walks as well as routine AM/PM visits. I’m happy to accommodate last-minute needs or become a regular helper. It's an honor to have a key to someones home and to be trusted to care for their animals, and I take this very seriously. I am a guest in your home, but in that time your pet is family to me. I always make sure to leave a home neater than I found it, and will double, triple check that all is as it should be before I depart.

About: I've been around animals my whole life and have an appreciation for the love that they bring to your home! I of course will do my very best to take care of them. As a pet owner myself I would expect nothing less for any care taker. I'm ok with big or small dogs as well as cats. Please let me know if your pet as any special needs or has any allergies. Knowing in advance makes my job easier and keeps your pet safe! Also let me know if your pet requires any other accomindations and I will do my best to make sure that they are met. I look forward to meeting your pet and having the opportunity to take care of them! I have a flexible schedule but would appreciate a heads up on any changes so we can plan ahead and make sure our furry friends are taken care of. I have a fully fenced in yard with two very friendly dogs myself. I do walks and lots of outside time to keep up with their high energy
