About: I have taken care of animals my whole life - from family pets, to pets of my own. I love all animals. We do not deserve them, but I do my best to earn their love every day. I truly enjoy providing them with all the love and safety they need. I have cared for small, medium, and large dogs. I cared for my sweet German Shorthaired Pointer (Hunter), who had cancer. Now I shower my young Aussie Mountain Doodle puppy (Selena) with love every day, teaching her to learn and grow, and brushing her constantly so her doodle fur does not get matted and she stays looking beautiful. I have fully potty trained her, she has learned a few commands, and with my guidance, she is getting better and better at walking on her leash. I also have two amazing senior kitties (Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin). They make me smile everyday. They are 14 years young, so they have started to have some slight health decline (cataracts, arthritis, hyperthyroidism), so I have gotten better and better at senior cat care. One of my kitties requires a pill twice a day, so I am an expert at administering pills to cats as well. I am also very good about making sure they have the freshest litter and litter boxes. I even house their litter boxes in special enclosures to give them privacy and a place of their own to do their business. From caring for my own pets, to feeding the squirrels and birds in my backyard, to rescuing stray cats - my love for animals knows no bounds. All animals deserve love, and I promise to care for you pets as if they were my own ❤️ I work full-time for a non-profit, but I work from home 3 days a week and only go into the office 2 times a week. This means I have some flexibility in my schedule on week days. On weekends I am wide open! At my home, I have a routine with my animals. They are fed right around the same times everyday, they are given fresh water twice a day, my one cat gets his medicine at the same time twice a day, and they all get a lot of pets and some treats daily as well. My puppy gets at least 2 walks a day, some swim time if the weather is nice, and A LOT of play time with her many toys every day. My cats do not like to play much now that they are older, but I do my best to keep them active with the few toys they show interest in. I have also converted my back porch into an enclosed catio in order to fulfill their dreams of being outdoor cats! In your home, I would utilize my stellar attention to detail in order to carefully follow your guidance. That way I can keep your pet(s) on their usual routine as much as possible so that they are as comfortable and feel as safe as possible. I am also a wonderful and thorough communicator, so I would ensure you were fully aware of everything so that you can feel comfortable as well.

“David is very reliable and excellent at communicating any issues that come up. Nala’s health has improved tremendously since they began their weekly walks!”

“Katherine has been great with my dog Leo. She can get in and out of a very difficult door to open (fiddly lock) and is very self-reliant. I’m sure Leo likes her a lot and I’m happy to have her walk my dog. A+”

About: I am currently a vet-tech student. I am fear-free certified. I know the scramble for pet care and how scary it can be to trust someone new with your pets. I hope to ease those fears and you can know your pet is getting the care they need. I am currently a student so my schedule varies, and I am looking for a part time job to fill in some gaps. This would also provide me the flexibility ot take on pet-care when my schedule allows so that the care level is never compromised. I will adhere to any rules or weird quirks your pet may have developed. For example growing up our dog would only eat if you made him think it was cooked the same way human food was cooked. We had to do a whole thing on the stove to seem like we were stirring it to fully cooked. I will always be mindful of any openings in yards and be sure they're closed off or that the pet is leashed properly before any door is opened.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life! Recently started boarding and at home visits within the past two years and I love it! I’ve worked with puppies-elderly dogs, helped train from bite work to bathroom breaks. I try to do it and love it all! I am a teacher and I have summer home free with my daughter. We don’t have any pets of our own and love to love the pets you love! I like to follow the requests of the client, wherever, however, and whenever i’m needed! I have a fenced in yard and no other pets.

“Amanda is an amazing walker and pet sitter. She has gone above and beyond for me and my dog Beatrice. She has carried my dog over hot asphalt to shade and grass for walks. Added ice to her water bowl on the hot days. She is a regular walker for me and I have entrusted her with a key to my loft. You can do no better in my book. Schedule her with confidence! 😊 Stars 6!”

“Amelia was wonderful! The doggies came back tired and happy. One of my pups has a hard time trusting strangers and was easily convinced that Amelia was a friend.”

Amanda B.

“Communicative and easy going! Aliza also took a lot of great pics of my baby which I super appreciate because I miss him so much on days I have to go into the office. Will 100% book Aliza again!”

About: I’ve loved animals my whole life and grew up with dogs, cats, fish, and even rabbits. Friends and family have always trusted me to help with their pets, and I treat every animal like part of the family. I’d love to do the same for yours. I am currently a full time online college student and work at the elementary school during lunch/recess. My schedule is very flexible, so I can work with you to care for your fur babies when they need it most. While caring for your pet, I will be able to confidently keep them happy, safe and healthy. I feel comfortable with giving medications, light grooming, feeding, walking, playing, and maintaining any training you are doing. I am happy to scoop litter boxes and pick up dog poops in the yard too! Whatever keeps the routine predictable for you and your pet.

“She is very nice, kind, and quick to respond. Is able to be flexible. Good with my pup :)”

About: I have had pets my whole life and hold animals dear to my heart! I LOVE spending time with them and making them happy. I have cared for dogs and cats for years and am very patient with them. I have a fenced in yard. I would prefer to avoid bringing clients pets into my home because I have 2 cats. But if the dog is friendly enough and has experience with cats I would consider it. My house is fairly big. It has a basement and attic, with 2 floors they’d have room to run and play. I have a medium sized yard so there would be room for them to run and play. I also have a safe street to bring them on walks. I pet sit full time. I’m looking to gain more clients so please book me. I spend my time practicing yoga, studying holistic health, caring for my own cats, reading or creating… so I am able to shift my schedule around easily to fit your needs! My home is cozy and safe with lots of room to run around and comfy furniture to sleep on! I keep the windows open and do not use toxic products in my house.

About: I’ve always had a passion for animals my whole life and would love to provide an easy, safe and affordable sitting and walking experience for you and your family! I have over 9 years dog watching, walking and loving experience and would love to help you out! I’m able to come to your home and stay overnight, just a day or even just an hour. Whatever pet services you need provided for your fluffy best friend I can accommodate. I’ve always been told I have a way with animals and I think it’s just because they have always genuinely made me happy. I’m sure you’ll be happy with the way I treat your pup and I know they’ll be happy to stretch their legs with me! I’m currently available full-time to board animals at my private house on a quiet street! I also offer dog walking and drop ins as well as housesitting! My home is pet free at the moment so your animal will have their own private Airbnb and full reign of my cozy little house!

“Kacey came to walk our pup Lotte on Thanksgiving, Lotte was very excited to have the company and Kacey even sent us some pics of the cats as well who came downstairs to say hello! Would hire Kacey again!”

About: I absolutely adore and love dogs, but I also respect all dogs. I provide lots of love, safe and stimulating play time and walks. I’ll go for a hike with your dog! I have worked with police dogs and at a high end pet resort/cage free boarding facility, Highland Pet Resort, where we board various animals-dogs, cats, birds, bunnies, hamsters, Guinea pigs, etc. We also provide doggie daycare and do play group assessments/evaluations to see if A dog can successfully play (no dog aggressive) and match dogs with other dogs based on their play style, energy level, and temperament. We also provide grooming from a groomer with her own business, where I've helped her with challenging dogs and have asked her advice on grooming and such. I have grown up around dogs my entire life. I also have worked with dogs and cats for 10+ years in various settings. I have also taken care of, primarily pet sitting walks, play time, and feedings with active and retired police dogs over the last 10+ years. Often times their commands were in different languages (so civilians wouldn't know what commands were given) so I am flexible with learning new languages. I know how to give most meds including insulin shots and am accommodating to special needs whether it's feeding, excersizing, old age, medical, physical, or a dog or cat who just wants snuggles and cuddles! No dog to big or small. I'm pretty flexible, can work around my work schedule. I also have access to resources such as grooming, trainers, etc. This is my part time job, so on my days off from my main job i have more flexibility in the frequency of dropping by and walks. The days I walk I will drop by as close to the beginning of my shift (depending on when my shift is) and definitely immediately following my shift. For in homes/pet sitting I will be there right before when I have to be at my shift and immediately following my shift. I'm trained in pet (cats and dogs) first aid and CPR via the red Cross as of November 13, 2018! With me your pet will have fun and lots of love! I’m pretty flexible. I prefer at least a days notice for drop ins so I can plan my next day with drop ins/walks accordingly to give each pet enough time for loves and pets! I do have other dog walks during the day, so for house sitting requests, pets need to be able to be left alone anywhere for about 5-6 consecutive hours a day (it’s typically about 4.5 hours a day, but sometimes I pick up extra. And also it depends on location/distance between your house and my dog walks) and traffic. I will also sometimes have a late night dog walk (anywhere from 9-1030/11 pm) so your pet would need to be ok with me leaving and returning around that time) Regardless of it being house/pet sitting, drop ins, or walks, I always provide each animal with snuggles, lots of pets, play time. I always make sure that their water bowl is filled with water before leaving.
