“Julissa was awesome. I need a last minute emergency dog walker since I broke my foot. Julissa showed up on time for each walk. She brought treats, toys, and bags. My dog Sarah really enjoyed her walks with Julissa. I will definitely be using Julissa again in the future. I highly recommend Julissa.”

About: I've been caring for small pets such as, Hamsters, Guinea-pigs and Fish (from goldfish, etc. to Oscars,etc.) from a very young age. Therein, for example, when I was still a little girl, my friend and neighbor could no longer care for their beloved, hamster, Andy; who did they think of... me ! So, Andy, the hamster was adopted and added to the fold. Next, Cats and Dogs. When my neighbor found a stray cat had given birth in their shed closet, again, who did they call?! I adopted one of the 3 kittens; adopting their sibling from the same liter soon after the first adoptee, was unable to care for it. I began caring for Angel and Geisha, my first two cats. Last but not least, Dogs... Cream was a white Pittie, whose owner, again, became unable to care for her so she lived with me and my 2 year old daughter at the time, and they loved each other dearly. After, finding Cream a permanent home, I had the honor of caring for other dogs for friends and neighbors even the homeless, from which I cared for Lulu, a pittie, living with her owner on the street. However, she received a healthy diet, vet care and patience, training to reverse some of the habits she developed living on the street. Now, although, I've cared for others such as Bamboo, the Pitbull, that seemed to take care of himself, lol and Karma, who needed a foster during the Covid pandemic; I'm entrusted with the care of my Pittie/German-Sheppard Gran-pet baby, Nasir aka Nas, while my daughter's in college. Nice enough, I still get to switch it up and care for the Cats (and small pets) of various friends and neighbors in my community. With that, I try o create a Pet-care Staycation like atmosphere when boarding or Home care while pet-parents are away and a Family like atmosphere for Fosters. I look forward to meeting your furry friends and four legged family members :) Pet care is not only therapeutic, it fits into my schedule perfectly, since I am a semi-retired administrative professional who suffered an untimely stroke at a young age. However. after an almost miraculous recovery, I'd like to move forward in a direction that nurtures my empathetic personality. Therein, leaving the desk behind, affording me with a more active lifestyle, all year round. As to that, my days generally consist of assisting my daughter with her dog, exercise, personal errands and volunteering a few hours a week. Although, I take pet care jobs occasionally, I'd like to "officially"extend my services to do something I love (I believe I'm good at it.) and rewarding because the pets (my clients) always seem to appreciate it. I have a fenced in yard and super friendly and silly, one year old fur gran-baby that would be happy to show a visiting canine "the ropes", lol. I can also crate and/or crate train your dog(s), when necessary. They will always have access to clean water; be walked consistently and fed on time and kept in a clean an organized space, whether at your home or mine. I make sure to follow pet parents care instructions. I send photos or video of fun moments to give insight as to how your pets are doing and cared for. I play, pet and communicate with each pet in their way to build trust, friendship and joy while their pet parents are away. In addition, I have had some dog training in the recent past and will have more dog training in the near future to help me care for our hairy pals compassionately and efficiently. [NOTE to Drop-in Clients: Please understand, Safety is a concern for Everyone; pet care givers, pet parents and pets. I work on a basis of professional Trust between all parties, including the pet party. All I can offer are my Referrals, my Word as a trusted professional and a background check conducted by Rover. I expect the same appropriate professionalism, trustworthiness and mutual respect from those who accept my Services. Thank you in advance for your cooperation.] I look forward to working with you. ;-)

“Elaine has been amazing with our dog, Jax! He’s usually pretty shy, but he warmed up to her so quickly. It’s clear she really understands dogs and takes her time to make them feel comfortable. She’s reliable, kind, and clearly loves what she does. We’re so glad we found her!”

I love all kinds of animals and want to provide the best care for your pets. I am currently not working so I have lots of available time to provide visits and care for your pets.

I love and care about routines so any routine your pet needs to follow I will be able to provide that in my clients home.

About: I am a registered nurse and mom of 3 teenagers and 4 fur babies. I have cared for my own dogs from puppyhood until their senior moments. I grew up with a Basset Hound named Pokey. I enjoy caring for dogs of all ages and stages and engaging with them in their environment. Safety is my number one priority during walks or in home visits. I work 9-5 Monday through Friday. I am able to visit with and walk your pet in the evenings during the week. I have availability on the weekends as well. Trust and reliability are very important. As a homeowner myself who has had wonderful pet sitters, safety is my top priority. I will provide the same level of attention and care I expect for my pets when I’m traveling.

“Vanessa and her partner were very sweet, caring and diligent when caring for my dog Finn. They took him on long walks and provided lots of photos and summaries of their time together. Thank you for taking such good care of my pup!!”

“I highly recommend this dog walker! Shama is reliable, caring, and truly passionate about animals. My dog is always excited to see her and comes home happy, well-exercised, and well cared for. Communication is excellent—shama provide updates and are always punctual and dependable. It’s clear she treat every dog as if it were their own. Having someone I can trust with my pet gives me great peace of mind. I couldn’t be happier with shama’s service and would gladly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog walker.”

About: I've had dogs all my life, the most recently i had a awesome miniature poodle who I was fortunate to love and care for 17 years, so I am familiar with the needs of senior dogs. My schedule is fairly open every day after about 9 or ten am. I'd like a regular opportunity, but one offs will be good as well I am available for pet sitting at the clients home, but due to younger kids I can accommodate pets at my home. Walking and feeding and playing is ideal

About: I currently work at a luxury dog hotel, where part of my job is to take care of the dogs, making sure they are fed and hydrated, ensuring their safety, and constantly being mindful of their welfare. I would also do this for your dog. I've always wanted to work with animals, and I've been fortunate enough to fulfill that ambition. My top goal is keeping your dogs safe. which is why I've had the honor of earning my canine CPR certification.I consider myself fortunate to be able to assist someone with keeping an eye on their dog. I am presently employed in a part-time position, typically working from 1 PM to 7 PM for approximately five to six days out of the week. In addition to having two amiable dogs who can keep your puppy company at all times, I have a large, fenced yard that allows me to be outside with your dog.
