“Jessica has been a wonderful caretaker & companion to our sweet, old dogs. I would definitely recommend her to my family, friends, & co-workers for their pet care needs. Jessica was so nice to meet us prior to booking her services & sent pictures of her visit, as well as bring our sweet boys a treat or two. Our dogs usually have terrible separation anxiety & stop eating, yet with Jessica's help they didn't miss a meal, a belly rub, a treat, or a walk. Thank you so much Jessica for taking such good care of our furry family members! We appreciate you.”

About: From an early age, I've taken care of animals small-to-large, parrots-to-malamutes and I believe they're all special, giving us an endless quality of life 💓. Making time for ani-fam is never an inconvenience because it is a practice of fulfilling a pet's needs. ☺️ It also helps to fulfill my self-care/ spiritual health needs by nurturing another living being. I find I function best when I care for an animal as it keeps me on task, on schedule, and mentally happy, too! Our two family cats are fed early in the am/pm, plenty of (consensual) belly rubs, a daily lil' treat, playtime and plenty of nap time as well as personal space, as they see fit. We also share the past-time of birdwatching in the countryside. ✨ When it comes to your pet and your home, I am dedicated to respecting your pet's dietary restrictions, physical "play" needs, and always approaching with love and respect, as I will be the guest in their/your home. Between a strict regimen or low-maintenance regimen for your animal, I would require meeting with you/them in your space beforehand to make sure I get a thorough briefing. I also believe this helps with introductory bonding, showing I am a safe person to trust, and not cause unwanted stress on your pet.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I can remember, there has never been a time I have not had a dog. I currently pet sit for my coworkers and family regularly. I love dogs of all sizes! I know how to care for dogs of all ages, from puppy to senior. Hello! I’m a full-time CNA and I’m looking to offer part-time pet care services Monday-Thursday. If you need someone reliable to look after your fur babies, I’d be happy to assist with any care your pets need, from feeding and walking to just providing companionship. Let’s chat about how I can help take care of your pets while you’re away! Caring for pets, whether they’re my own or someone else’s takes attention, routine, and understanding of each animal’s unique personality. Pets like people like consistency. I ensure I understand their regular feeding times, exercise habits. Understanding each animals play habits helps keep them entertained and happy. Documenting medical concerns and medication needed to ensure properly given, and monitor for any signs of illness. Pets, especially those away from their owners, can experience anxiety, some more than others! I engage with them to provide companionship such as playtime & cuddles! I keep an eye on body language and behavior to ensure they are comfortable. I keep open communication, providing updates and reporting any concerns. Trust is vital, and being responsive to a client’s pet care preferences or concerns is important. Ensure I have vet and contact information in the event of an emergency.

“Wyatt had been wonderful with my young dog. Quick responses and quite flexible on short notice. Tod was also so excited to see him this for his repeat walk. Very grateful for his help!”

About: I have been raising and caring for a variety of animals for over 25 years! Having experience with all kinds of animals, I know the importance of meeting the needs of each animal and giving it the love and care it deserves and desires. I have several families that reach out to me when they are planning a trip so that I can care for their pets while they are away. I understand the importance of maintaining the pet owners routine, commands, and affection with their pets to help reduce anxiety and stress while they are away. My goal is to love their pets as if they are my own. I have cared for our own dogs as seniors and have experience with failing body functions and know how to administer medications and assist the animal with getting up and moving around. I also have much experience with puppies since I breed Australian Shepherds and care for the puppies from the time they are born until they are at an appropriate age and health standard to go to their new families. I am so excited to meet many other pet families in our area and live on your pet so you can feel comfortable and at peace any time you need to travel and your pet has to stay behind. It’s hard enough to say good-bye, so having peace of mind on how they will be cared for while you are away can make a good trip a GREAT one!! I am available most days of the week for 24/7 care since we are a homeschooling family and I am a stay at home mom. Pets are allowed in our home as long as they get along well with other pets and children. I do have an unground fence and collars that I can use to teach your pet to stay in our yard. I also have two nice size kennels that give dogs plenty of room to wander inside and outside the kennel walls.

About: I LOVE LOVE pets of all kind! I can't get enough of playing with them, walking them, and taking care of them! I have been taking care of pets since I was 10 years old.

About: My childhood was filled of all kinds of pets and pups. My whole life I've always had at least 3 fury babies in my life. I was intrigued by how intelligent our pets are so I began to work with them. I'm very good with all kinds of training from pups, teens, to our grandparent's. I've trained dogs for a couple of friends as well as my grandma's farm dogs ( Great Pyrenees). Today I have four babies and they are all well trained. I have four large dogs that I take care of everyday. Once a day I take my dogs to the park for walks. we go on, hikes, swims, and we go to pet friendly areas for people connections. I would love to bring your loved one along with me. I have a perimeter collar for my hound dog and leashes with harnesses for my other three. I am very alert around my dogs . They are just like children you have to keep a close eye one them. My dogs are also inside dogs. I would treat ur dog like one of my own. Your baby is safe in my care.

About: As the daughter of a groomer, I have been around dogs since I was a child. I have seen a variety of different sizes and breeds over the years, and have experienced many different temperaments as well. I am a dog lover in all aspects, I have 5 dogs of my own, big and small, and they are my children. My goal is to provide you with relief and peace of mind that your dogs are in good hands as I have taken care of dogs since I was around 9 years old. I have experience administering medications, topical creams, and proper grooming (thanks Mom!) to many different dogs and understand that all are different and special in their own way! Additionally, I have worked on a farm on and off during my youth, so I have experience working with large animals and small animals and birds too! I am a college student studying at Virginia Tech, so pet care has always been my full time job during the summers! I do have a part time job right now, but my boss is knowledgeable of my passion for animals and allows me to create my work schedule around my animal schedule! I provide excellent care by providing what’s truly important in the pet care world: peace of mind. Leaving your dogs or cats with me would mean leaving them with someone who would love them, take them on hearty walks, wants to spend time with them, and give them all the pets and attention they could ask for during a stressful time when their owners were away. I want to take that stress away!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs/cats almost my entire life. I have 4 children, each dog I’ve ever had or have is my family and heart. I am a pure animal lover and I’m always the first person my friends or family ask to watch their pet :) I’m looking more for drop ins & dog walking. :) Thank you for considering me!!! My availability is completely wide open. When I am scheduled with your pet, they will have my full attention and will be my main priority. I love to go for plenty of walks (if your pet loves the out doors) I believe in lots of play time, cuddles and working around your pets personality.

About: All walks tailored to your dog’s personality, whether he or she requires a swift walk or a leisurely stroll to sniff around and explore one thing for sure is they will get plenty of exercise and have fun. I send text pictures and updates on how your dog did on their walk each day. I’ve been a dog and cat owner for over 40 years. I’ve also was a assistant zookeeper and worked with the gorillas and orangutans. I love all animals and treat each one with love and respect. I have experience as a farm hand as well feeding goats, pigs, chickens, and horses. I am trustworthy, patient, compassionate , responsible and reliable. I will customize all visits to suit your dog or cats needs.

About: I am highly active, with a background in high-level sports. I workout weekly at a local gym, stay on my feet all day at work, and have a high energy dog myself. Every thing I do from sun up to sun down is focused on health and the growth of those around me. If there's an opportunity to train an animal, I tend to seize that moment. The more our pets understand us, the easier it is to live with them. My dog is a well-fed, exercised, played with PitBull/Boxer, if I neglect him, I lose my friend. I am currently a Full Time Manager at a Retail Store and I look forward to my free time outside of the job. I only work 8 hours a day (alternating between, 1st, 2nd, and 3rd shift), allowing me to offer my pet services early mornings, mid-day, or late nights (time slots may vary). I will take in account of all enviorments, dangers, and inconveniences while with your pet. We will avoid any problematic situations, respect all forecasted weather, and move as far from traffic as we can.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats since I was a baby and I am extremely passionate about caring for animals properly. I am fun easy going and will imply whatever training you are trying to enforce for your pet. I will treat your pet as if it were my own while he or she is in my care. I am a very easy going person who isn’t going to mistreat your animal in any way. I do my absolute best to give any animal the best experience while they are with me as possible. That includes lots of pampering, baths if necessary, brushing the dog out if necessary, (and if tolerated!) my biggest love and passion is caring for animals and making sure they are happy healthy and have an amazing time spent with me. Currently serving at a restaurant that is directly in front of my house and I don’t work many or long shifts so taking care of your pet will be no problem plus I am very active and always going on hikes or playing at the lake I always make sure I am aware of any quirks or important things about your dog as to keep everyone happy and safe while away from mom and/or dad
