“My dog Rosie, is a big, very strong and high energy Great Dane. Steve does a great job walking her, allowing her to explore and have fun while keeping her under safe control as well. Rosie loves her walks with Steve and even gets excited when she sees his car coming down our street ! Rosie and I will definitely be calling Steve again!”

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 11 years old and currently have seven cats and a Yorkie of my own, so caring for pets has truly been a lifelong part of my everyday life. Having a multi-pet household has given me extensive hands-on experience caring for both cats and dogs with different personalities, temperaments, energy levels, and routines. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, litter box care, maintaining daily routines, and giving each pet the individual attention they need. I especially understand cats and how different their personalities can be—from the super affectionate and playful ones to the shy or independent ones who need a little more patience and space to feel comfortable. As a pet parent myself, I know how important it is to feel confident about who you’re leaving your pets with. I’ll treat every pet in my care with the same love, patience, attention, and respect I give my own, and I’m always happy to provide plenty of photos and updates while you’re away! :) Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine as a pet parent myself. I’m available all day on Saturdays and Sundays, making weekends especially flexible for walks, drop-ins, house sitting, or other pet care needs. During the week, I’m typically available in the evenings starting around 6 PM. I can also be flexible outside of my normal availability as needed, so feel free to reach out and I’ll do my best to accommodate your pet’s schedule and care needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my priority. I carefully follow each pet parent’s instructions, including feeding schedules, walking routines, household rules, and any special preferences your pet may have. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of both their space and their pet’s established routine, and I make sure doors, gates, leashes, and other potential escape points are secure. For pets staying with me, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable environment and giving them time to adjust at their own pace. Because I have pets of my own, I take introductions and interactions seriously and would never force unfamiliar animals together. I’m attentive to behavior and body language and will always prioritize what makes each pet feel safe and comfortable.

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: Growing up, I was honored to be my family and friends’ top choice for a pet sitter. I have always been passionate about giving any animal in my care the best experience possible. I strongly believe in building a strong, positive relationship with both the animal and owner. This ensures both parties feel comfortable in my care. As the proud owner of two rescue dogs, I know firsthand that every dog has a unique personality, history, and set of needs. My daily life revolves around canine care, and I pride myself on deeply understanding dog body language. I know how to spot the subtle signs of a dog feeling anxious, excited, playful, or overwhelmed. This allows me to adjust my approach instantly, ensuring your pup always feels safe, respected, and comfortable in my care. I am currently doing my graduate coursework fully online, so my schedule is extremely flexible. I am looking to gain some consistent clients to fill my time! I will follow all walking and feeding instructions you give me. I am happy to bring over any pre approved treats for your pup to enjoy, as well as follow your typical walking route to ensure your dog’s routine stays in place.

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.

You can count on me to feed your pet according to their schedule, walk them when they need it, and make sure their water bowl is always full :). I'm accustomed to adjusting to different pet's needs because everyone is unique. I look forward to meeting your pet! Please note we have a 2 year old son, so we need pets to be kid friendly. We have a fenced in yard and love to take walks to the park. My daily job allows me to work from home and I have flexible hours. And I am available on weekends to take care of your pets. I care for pets with safety first. I live with my partner and we keep a tidy house that will have plenty of room for your pet to roam around. We live in a safe single family home and always lock the door to ensure your pets safety. When staying in other's homes, I treat it the same as mine, if not better.

About: I’ve always had a love for animals, especially dogs! Being a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your fur baby. I’m patient, loving, and attentive, and I always make sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. Whether it’s going on walks, feeding, playing, or simply keeping them company, I’ll treat your pet with the same love and attention I give my own! I’m currently a college student, so my schedule is pretty flexible outside of my morning classes. I’m available during the afternoons, evenings, and weekends depending on the service needed. I enjoy spending time with animals and would love to make pet care a part of my weekly routine! Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my priority! I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’ll make sure to follow any instructions you provide, including feeding schedules, walks, and any special care. I also believe communication is important, so I’m always happy to send updates and pictures to give you peace of mind while your pet is in my care.

About: For nearly 20 years, caring for pets has been a natural part of my professional caregiving experience. I've also had the privilege of caring for clients of RxTra Care Pet Sitting & Services, PetCare with Love LLC, and currently Pawmunications, entrusting me with the care of pets of all ages, personalities, and care needs. Every pet is unique, so I take the time to get to know their personality, routine, and individual needs. Whether I'm caring for a playful puppy, a senior pet, or a multi-pet household, my goal is to keep their day as consistent and stress-free as possible. I believe the best pet care starts with communication. I take the time to learn your expectations, your pet's routines, and the little details that make them feel safe and comfortable. Every visit is tailored to your pet, because no one knows them better than you do. I'm comfortable following detailed care instructions, administering routine oral medications, maintaining feeding and exercise schedules, and caring for multi-pet households. I'll also provide regular photo and text updates so you always know how your pets are doing. My goal is simple: for you to come home—or finish your workday—to happy pets and the confidence that everything was exactly as it should be. Pet sitting is currently my full-time focus, allowing me the flexibility to provide dependable care, accommodate a variety of schedules, and be available for overnight stays, drop-ins, and walks. My availability is updated regularly, so if you have recurring or long-term needs, I'd love to chat! Because I'm caring for your pets in the environment they're most comfortable in, I focus on maintaining their normal routine and respecting both your pet's needs and your home. Before every booking, I take the time to learn your pet's schedule, preferences, medications, and any household routines that are important to you. During each visit, I'll follow your instructions carefully, keep doors and gates secure, double-check collars and harnesses before walks, and provide regular photo and text updates so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while giving you complete peace of mind.
