“Grainne loved these sitters. She was well cared for. When I picked her up, they (tactfully) asked about her wheezing (I’d forgotten to tell them). I think that showed me their love of animals. I would definitely ask them to sit again. They also worked with me on pick up and drop off times. Nice people.”

About: I have experience with all kinds of pets. From reptiles, felines, and mixed breed pups, to Pit Bulls and German Shepherds. I love them all 🫶🏾 I work from home for a minimal contact tech company. After my little ones leave for school at 8:30 AM, my schedule is completely flexible. We miss having fur babies around and will treat them as part of our family. I have mild mannered boys 8 and 6 that love nature and animals.

“This was our first time leaving our dog with anyone other than my parents and Shadia was so great! Judy usually takes a minute or two to warm up but was drawn to his energy right away. He was communicative and patient with her. Highly recommend him! Thanks again Shadia, you’re a lifesaver! PS I’m so sorry she pooped in your house!!!”

About: I’ve worked with all kinds of dogs and cats. I have 4 years experience as an Army Animal Care Specialist, worked 7 years in veterinary medicine as a Vet Tech, and have a Bachelors degree in Animal sciences. I personally have experience with small breeds up to giant breeds. I currently own a Great Dane and have a German shepherd puppy. I have experience with high drive breeds as well. I used to have a search and rescue dog. I’ve previously owned a pug, heeler, and Australian kelpie. I can give medications to include injectables. I am a stay at home mom. Once I drop kids off to school I have time to stop by and let the pups out or take them on a walk. I will follow instructions given. I will leash walk and return your pet to the designated area they need to be in whether that’s free roaming in your home or to their specified crate.

About: I’ve had dogs since I was 5 years old! Currently I have a 85 lb lab/pit mix, and a 65 lb mut! I love to play with your dogs by playing with their toys with them, talking them on long walks, giving all the cuddles the want, loading them up with love and pets, and staying on their routine like they would if you were there! I’m a stay at home mom so my schedule is flexible! Willing to work with all routines and schedules. Also willing to bring them to the dog park! Your fur babies are in great hands with me! I almost always have open availability, just let me know what you need! Available as early as 8 am and as late as you need for the rest of the day. I have a fenced in yard and two fur babies of my own to keep them company. I also don’t mind animals being in my vehicle so I can take your fur baby to the dog park. I also love exercise so long walks are perfectly fine with me. Since my schedule is open I can keep up with your fur babies routine.
