Seanita is absolutely awesome. My pups took to her instantly and she always takes amazing care of them! Even when she wasn’t available for a walk, she went out of her way to help me find another walker for my babies.

About: I’ve been pet sitting for over 2 years and truly love caring for animals. Along with my experience providing overnight care, I currently work as a veterinary assistant, where I care for both dogs and cats in a professional setting. Working in vet medicine has helped me become comfortable with pets of all ages, sizes, personalities, and needs, including senior pets and anxious animals. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and routine to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I work full time, so I fit pet care around my work schedule. I’m available on weekends and some Thursdays, which I’ve listed in my availability. I make sure to plan ahead so I can be consistent and give pets proper care and attention when I’m with them. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal routine as closely as possible to help the pet feel comfortable and secure. I make sure they are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get walks and bathroom breaks, and receive plenty of attention and playtime. I also keep their environment clean and safe and follow any specific instructions provided by the owner.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 13. I also used to take care of my friend’s dogs whenever they needed me. To me, those 4 paws babies are more than family, they’re angels on earth! I currently have a full-time job, but I am free the whole morning until 2:00 pm. My cousin is home until 4:00 pm before work, so there is always a company in the house. I'm available for booking on weekends day/night so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups. Extended Care after 8+hrs fee is $45 I can easily create your dog enough space to feel free and comfortable like home, take them for a walking while keeping them safe in a peaceful area.

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember and truly enjoy bonding with pets because they feel like a safe space and the most genuine companions. I have 4+ years of experience caring for both cats and dogs, including feeding, playtime, walks, litter box cleaning, giving attention, and making pets feel comfortable and safe while their owners are away. Friends, neighbors, and family have relied on me to care for their pets with patience, love, and reliability. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy. I make time throughout the week for feeding, walks, playtime, check-ins, and giving pets attention, comfort, and companionship while their owners are away. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in a calm environment. I carefully follow feeding schedules, routines, and any instructions provided by the owner. I pay close attention to pets’ behavior, keep their spaces clean, make sure doors and gates are secure, and give them patience, affection, and gentle care so they feel relaxed and protected.

About: I have experience with pets of all ages and personalities, including a special love for senior animals. I’m very comfortable caring for pets with special needs and I understand the extra patience, gentleness, and attention they need—whether that means slower routines, medication support, or just a calm, comforting presence. I’m also experienced with more independent or “spicy” cats and dogs through my time volunteering at a local animal shelter, and know how to read their boundaries, build trust at their pace, and make them feel safe without forcing interaction. Pet care fits naturally into my routine since I work part-time and intentionally build my schedule around the needs of the pets I’m caring for. This allows me to be flexible and give each pet the time and attention they deserve. I also like to set clear expectations with owners ahead of each visit so I can make sure I’m meeting their preferences and providing consistent, reliable care. I am happy to accommodate all requests according to individual pet's needs after a conversation with the pet owner! Any questions or requests, feel free to reach out :)

About: Cant think of time where I haven’t been around a dog. Growing up there was always dogs in the house. It comes easy to me. For my 2 dogs it starts at 345am with their first walk before I head to the gym. There 2nd walk comes at 8am before I start work then again at 2pm for a quick lunch break and their last 2 walks come at 5 and 930pm before settling down for the night. In between all the walking they’ll get breakfast and dinner and some naps. Meet and greet is important along with getting to know the pets needs and routines. Along with likes and dislikes. Knowing what the pet parents wants and expects from visits or boarding.

About: I grew up with and took care of a sweet and energetic yorkipoo named Milo. He passed away a few of years ago at 15 with dementia and nerve issues. I also lived with an elderly, blind maltese-bichon mix, Coco for three years and helped take care of her as well. I am comfortable and experienced with older dogs that require more medical attention but am more than happy to help with younger pups as well! I also have some experience cat-sitting for friends. I am currently on summer break, so my schedule is pretty flexible! I am especially available during weekdays at any time. However, I am available many weekends as well. I like to give pets ample attention and whatever each individual pet needs. I know each pet is different and I will adapt to your pet’s personality whether that’s high energy or more calm.

I’ve also cared for my own dogs since I was like 9, so being responsible for pets and loving them has always been a part of my life. I currently go to college Monday, Wednesday and Friday but for certain hours. I also have a part-time job but only at night usually 4-10. I spend my full attention on the pet, mostly if playing in the backyard. When walking the pet I also have my full attention on them in every since, like if it was my own dog!

Nima did a fantastic job walking our Oli and I highly recommend her. She is punctual, professional, and extremely loving to all of our pets! Nima was also flexible with scheduling and willing to accommodate our (Oli’s) needs when we needed to modify the booking. She was also extremely patient when our Oli was being stubborn on walks or potty breaks, which we greatly appreciated, especially the photos of their walks when he was serving serious diva face! 😂 We will definitely be utilizing her services again in the future and cannot recommend her enough!

I had Taylor come walk our dog, Lola, and from the moment they met, Lola gravitated toward her. She immediately felt Taylor’s calm, kind energy , she’s soft-spoken, gentle, and very easy-going. By the time Taylor left, Lola was giving her hugs and kisses! It went so well that I booked her again the very next day for an earlier walk. Taylor was on time, super communicative, and Lola actually cried with excitement when she saw her again. We’re so happy to have potentially found our go-to dog walker!
