Jenn was awesome. She was able to watch my dog on a short notice and she took my dog out to interact with other pets and animals. He had so much fun with her and I enjoyed the video updates she sent!

About: I have taken care of animals from a very young age. But the past 15 I have watched my adult children's dogs many times at my home. I have had several senior dogs and dogs on medications. Our current dog, Riley loves all dogs and is very playful I work part-time from home and am able to take multiple breaks for outside time and walks throughout the day. During nice weather I am outside in the yard gardening frequently. We have a large fenced yard and a fun loving pup, Riley who really would love a playmate. We also have a doggy door in the outside porch. The door to the upstairs is kept closed unless we are up there to prevent accidents.

This is the first time this pup was left with a sitter and we felt very secure leaving her. We have used Morgan and her family before with our other pup and knew she would be taken care of and pictures were sent daily, along with communication on how she was doing.

About: I have a dog of my own now and understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet! I stay active and go on daily walks (sometimes twice a day), so your dog will get plenty of exercise, attention, and care. I also have two cats, so I’m comfortable with both dogs and cats and their different needs. I’m reliable, patient, and treat every pet like my own—whether that’s going for walks, playtime, or just giving them love and attention while you’re away. I have a full time job that is very flexible. I go on walks in the middle of the day lots of times, and am also free some mornings and evenings. I care for pets based on each owner’s preferences and routines to make them feel as comfortable as possible. I’m experienced with leash walks, playtime, and outings like the dog park if approved. Safety is always my priority, and I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior, energy level, and needs. I treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel loved, secure, and well cared for while you’re away. I have a fur baby of my own that is glad to keep yours company if needed as well!

About: I have been watching dogs for over ten years for family, friends, and neighbors. I have also owned dogs my whole life. With a friendly pup of my own, we are always looking for new friends and ways to socialize. Your dog will be in great paws here! I have Tuesday’s off during the week and am available most weekends for a lunch time walk or a weekend get away for mom and dad. My pup is very social and loves making new friends. He is growing fast, so I have multiple kennel sizes if needed. I do live in an apartment, but in a very pet friendly area with lots of open space to walk around without having to worry about traffic.

About: I have had dogs and cats my entire life and have raised puppies and kittens. Growing up I also cared for elderly dogs. Keeping animals active and making sure their needs are being met is something I enjoy. When pet sitting I like running and playing fetch with pets or even just sitting and petting them if that’s what they prefer. I have volunteered with humane societies to walk dogs and play with cats. For 2 years I was a veterinary technician at an animal hospital in florida and worked with animals everyday. I am able to give prescribed medications or injections if needed. I have availability on nights and weekends as well as on my days off. I am flexible about traveling and am willing to travel about 30 minutes for pet sitting. Just contact me with any questions about schedule availability. Very flexible on nights and weekends. Work a swing shift at work so some weeks my availability is different. When caring for pets in my clients home I am always careful to make sure the pet is as comfortable with me as possible. I respect that the home is there space and make sure to let the pet make the first move when meeting for the first time.
