About: I have had cats since I was a baby and had chow chow dogs since I was 13 years old. I also worked at a kennel off and on for 12.5 years. I learned a little training but not a lot. I have worked with all different breeds of dogs. I love snuggling with cats as I grew up with having them in my household. I currently work full time however, full time is 30 hours for me so it allows me to have 3 to 4 days off towards the end of the week depending on the week. We have a large back yard with a dog run and as far as my cat. He is an indoor cat and gets spoiled indoors.

12. Drew T.
About: As a lifelong animal enthusiast, I'm thrilled to turn my passion into a career. Recently, I said goodbye to my beloved childhood dog of 15.5 years, who taught me the value of dedication and senior care. Caring for him during his golden years, including managing daily medications, only deepened my love for animals. My friends and acquaintances took notice of my animal-loving spirit and began asking me to pet sit for them. Now, I'm excited to offer my services to you! With experience in caring for reptiles, chickens, and dogs, I'm confident in my ability to provide top-notch care. Raising chickens from baby chicks to healthy, thriving layers was a rewarding experience that taught me the importance of attention to detail and nurturing. Trust me to give your furry (and scaly) friends the love and care they deserve. Let's work together to create a happy, healthy environment for your beloved pets! I am currently dedicating my time to my business. I enjoy to play disc golf in my free time and I’m an avid Patriots football fan (don’t hate me for it) Your Pet's Home Away from Home I understand the importance of finding a trusted and loving caregiver for your furry friend. That's why I'm committed to providing personalized, one-on-one attention to your dog or cat when in the comfort of my own home or when in your home. Just like my beloved Otis, your pet will receive the utmost care and attention, tailored to their unique needs and preferences. Here's what you can expect: - A quiet, stress-free environment free from other animals and children - Customized dog walking schedules to suit your pet's needs and your preferences - Cozy sleeping arrangements - either snuggled up with me or in their own bed, whichever they prefer Trust me to give your pet the love, care, and attention they deserve.
13. London M.
“London is responsible, friendly and fun. She is flexible, for example she agreed to walk my dog later several evenings when the weather was very hot. She came when she said she would and my dog looked forward to walks with her. I highly recommend London.”
14. Vee R.
About: Since a child, I’ve loved and had a great passion for animals. From birds to giant grizzly bears. I’ve had 2 dogs and two cats in my life time. My current fur babies are Deuce (dog) & Rylo (cat), which whom I spoil to death with clothing, treats, pictures, & unconditional love. I’ve worked at a dog daycare for 2 and 1/2 months. The dogs were a variety of sizes in a large group. I’ve also done in home visits with macaws (birds), cats & dogs. Both experiences were more than heart-fulfilling, and I’d love to expand my experience in the animal field, considering the fact that I’m going to become a wildlife rehabilitationist. I love animals more than people, which you’ll notice when you invite me over and I’m with your dog the whole time. Just kidding! I also have a sense of humor, provide tons of care and undivided attention to your pets, extremely cautious and careful, respectful, reliable, and determined. My availability ranges from Mon-Sat, starting at about 10am-9pm. However, I am open to possibly providing services on Sundays (I would recommend texting or calling). My care style is fairly gentle & attentive. I love to provide cuddles and meet all expectations as needed. I also prefer clear communication about any details/concerns.
15. Melissa S.
“Melissa is a fantastic pet sitter! She's dog sat for my Border Collie several times and he loves her. She treats animals with respect and love, so you can feel good about leaving your fur babies in her care.”
16. Kelly O.
“Kelly was a great asset for our dogs while we were out of town. She sent lots of pictures of their walks and the dogs looked happy and tired after.”
17. Abby S.
“Thank you for taking care of my dogs!”
18. Courtney E.
“Beyond any expectations! Courtney is completely reliable, always punctual and has a strong sense of responsibility. Totally trust her with my best friend and Koko loves her. We both hope to see her again when the occasion arises. Highest recommendation”
19. Sheridan T.
“Sheridan is one of the few people I would let care for my animals. She is very loving and responsible as a person in general but especially with animals. She loves dogs with all of her heart and will take the best care of yours! Make sure to hire her as your dog won’t have a better walker :)”
