About: I have grown up helping to take care of family pets, as well as watching them and other pets for friends and family members. I have done anywhere from week-long stays to just pop-in visits. I am currently working part-time while home for a couple months. I will have plenty of time to dedicate to your pets! Whether it’s overnight or just daily walks! I always want to make sure the pet(s) is comfortable when I am entering their space. I know animals are typically pretty regimented (like us) so I want to make the transition of you being gone smooth.

About: Being and eldest sibling caretaking has always come naturally to me and that extends towards animals of all kinds. My love for animals started at a very young age and I’ve taken care of all kinds of pets since the age of 10. Including fish, frogs, turtles, lizards, snakes, hamsters, bunnies, birds, cats and dogs. Even a tarantula! I’m a single parent and bar manager, just looking for something flexible to do to keep busy during the day. I live an active healthy lifestyle. I do not have any pets at the moment nor pet equipment. My apartment complex is a very pet friendly community with a dog park/waste bags & I have an SUV big enough for transportation if needed.

About: Hi! I’m Jennifer, a reliable and caring dog walker who treats every dog like family. Whether your pup needs a quick potty break, a fun walk around the neighborhood, or some extra playtime while you're busy, I’m here to help! I understand that every dog has their own personality, energy level, and routine. From energetic puppies who love long walks to senior dogs who prefer slow strolls and lots of love, I make sure each walk is safe, fun, and tailored just for them. ✨ Why pet parents trust me: • Patient and gentle with dogs of all sizes and temperaments • Reliable and always on time • Plenty of exercise, play, and attention • Photo and update after every walk 📸 • Your dog’s safety and happiness always come first Your pup deserves more than just a walk—they deserve an adventure and lots of love along the way. 🐕💛 Let’s get those tails wagging! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I make time each day for walks, outdoor time, and giving pets the attention and care they need. I’m very organized with my schedule, which allows me to be reliable and consistent for pet parents who depend on me. Throughout the week, I plan my availability so I can give each pet proper time for walks, playtime, feeding, and check-ins. I also make sure to communicate with owners by sending updates and photos so they know their pet is happy and well cared for. Caring for pets isn’t just something I do occasionally—it’s something I truly enjoy and make a regular part of my routine When caring for pets in a client’s home, my priority is always making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions from the owner. I respect their space while making sure their pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. I provide walks, potty breaks, playtime, fresh water, and lots of affection so pets feel relaxed while their owner is away. I also send regular updates and photos so owners know their pet is happy and well cared for. My goal is always to treat every pet like they’re my own and give owners peace of mind knowing their furry family member is in good hands. 🐾

About: I have always had cats and/or dogs growing up and into adulthood. I have experience with pet sitting and dog walking. My genuine love for all animals should give you peace of mind that your fur baby is in great hands! I am a 7th grade math teacher, and I have my entire summer off. This provides me with ample flexibility and time to take good care of your furry family member! I care for pets by giving them all the love, attention, and affection they deserve! If they will be in my apartment, I have a cat at home who is good with other animals. She typically minds her own business.

About: With six years of dedicated dog ownership, I know firsthand the joy and responsibility of caring for a furry family member. My dog was my world, and I ensured he had the best life possible, filled with love, adventure, and meticulous care. This passion extends to every pet I meet—I always take a genuine interest in their well-being, just as much as in their owners'. I bring this same devotion and enthusiasm to caring for your pets, treating them as if they were my own. Im a Daylight nurse from 7am-7pm who works three 12s. Shifts are mostly different every week but I have my schedule 6 weeks in advance. I’ll prioritize your pets well-being by maintaining their daily routines, providing plenty of exercise through fun activities like walks and hikes, and ensuring they feel safe and loved while you’re away

About: As a lifelong pet owner and former boarding facility employee, I’m comfortable caring for pets of all personalities. I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away, and I’ll treat them like part of my own family. I currently work part-time so I have plenty of time to spend with your pets! The only day I cannot do is Tuesday unless it’s between 4pm and 8pm Since I only provide care in my clients’ homes, my goal is to keep pets happy and comfortable in their familiar environment. I follow their normal routine, make sure they get plenty of love, attention, exercise, and care, and send regular updates so owners know their pets are doing well.

Tea is fantastic and I could not recommend her more for walking your dog. Tea is extremely personable and flexible. She was able to work with my schedule and maintened excellent communication with me while I was away. She sent pictures and updates during all walks and my dog couldn't have looked happier. If you're going out of town or need someone to walk your dog while away from home, keep Tea at the top of your dog walker list.
