About: Taking care of animals is a passion! Whether it be walking, or just giving well deserved attention and overall the care they need to be happy! I work full time but i am available mornings and late nights to help exert your dogs energy or just provide them a fun outlet! I have two cats that are leash trained! i know how easily they can get distracted and i remain alert to their needs. Having someone who cares while also being observant is key!

“Katie’s first day with dog walking was a success. I loved her pictures and very complete reports. On the meet and greet Brody loved Katie. Katie is obviously a dog lover and knows and understands how to make them happy and content.”

About: I’ve always always had a soft spot in my heart for animals. My parents have always had a ton, from a bunch of different breeds of dogs to pigs, to chameleons, to bunnies. I’ve always had experience with animals, it’s odd if I don’t have one around! I have a kitty named Nala and a Cocker Spaniel named Goose. They are my pride and joy! I feel as though pet care is just as important as self care. Animals are there for us, as our support, therefore, they should be taken care of just as well. Making sure that your animal is not only healthy, but happy is a priority to me! Having a routine and making sure that all needs are met is a must. I feel as though your home is also your pets home, therefore, enabling them to have their own space is important. Also, making sure your animal is fed and watered and stimulated and energized plays a large role. Playing with toys or running around in the yard are both great ways of stimulating the brain!

About: My Fiancé and I have had big dogs and small dogs throughout both our lives! With that, I have 2+years of experience as a kennel technician where I had worked with a variety of different dog sizes and breeds. My background includes working with dogs that require specialized care, such as those with mobility challenges, sensory impairments, or chronic health conditions. I am adept at adapting environments and routines to ensure their comfort and safety. I currently have a very flexible schedule where I am available to work anytime you are needing, all week long and I am also able to travel a considerable distance as well! I have a small dog that is young and playful and loves to play on our backyard. And I also have an older medium sized dog who is kind of moody but usually keeps to herself! We have a house full of dog toys and treats because both of my dogs are very spoiled.

About: I love and enjoy all breeds. I enjoy different pet personalities and learning their unique traits. I've had my own dogs and cats and have helped others with their pets. I'm currently not working a full time job and looking to fill my time playing with you fur babies. I'm adaptable to schedules and dependable. My yard is fenced and my dog enjoys the home to its fullest. As a black lab puppy he does crate for short times if I'm not home, but other then that he is out and about. There's a space for him in almost every room.

About: I have loved and cared for pets since I was a little girl. Growing up we had 2 dogs and 1 cat that I spent all my time with. I now have 2 dogs and 6 cats of my own that i love and care for everyday. I have good experience with senior dogs as one of mine is 12 years old. I treat every pet i meet as if they were my own and am a lover of all animals. I am currently working part time and take some classes for school through the week. my evenings are very open and most weekdays I have afternoons open as well. I always have time to love on as many fur babies as I can. I have a whole room in my house dedicated to the cats. They have some scratching posts, cat towers, and all their toys to play with, and we also have a catio connected to the window so they can hangout and play out there when they want to. I like to take the dogs on walks and play with them in our fenced in yard every day.

About: Hello! I'm Carly. I've had dogs since I was a little girl and started to own cats in my college years. As time has gone on, I have adopted and purchased different pets and currently have three dogs, a wiener dog, English setter and Great-dane/mastiff/Corso. I also have four cats ranging in ages from kitten to old man :) All of my pets are extremely friendly and get along well with other animals! *** Care in Pet Palace *** I'm currently working from home, so your pets and I will spend all day long together! We will start our mornings with a morning potty break and some play time. My dogs love to roam the yard and play with one another with a little fetch every morning. If you prefer your dog has a breakfast in the morning I will serve this after some relaxing time in the mornings. We will take potty and play time breaks all day. I do have children, age 8 and up, who will be sure to give your pets love and attention and additional playtime all day long! Your pet will truly fit right in with us and feel apart of the family from day one! *** Care in your home *** Care in your home will occur to any standard and requests you set! Typically this will include myself coming to your home in the morning for a potty break and play time. I can also remain in the home for a period of time for love and snuggles if desired! I will come to the home as often as desired and provide meal during times requested! Please note I do not stay in your home overnight! *** Pet Palace *** When in my home, your pet will have the same access my pets do to the areas unless otherwise specified and agreed upon. Dogs have access to the entire first floor of our home and are able to lay on our furniture. Cats also have the same access as well as access to the second floor of our home, allowing them to relax in a quiet space away from puppy play! If I should need to leave the home, I do have a fenced in 8 foot tall dog run which includes a grassy area and a covered section on concrete where dog houses are for additional shelter. If the weather is not appropriate for the dogs to remain outside or you prefer they are contained indoors, a crate can be set up inside our sun room as well. *** In your home pet care *** If pet care is desired in your home instead, I will follow any instructions you may leave to care for your pet the way you desire so ensure they feel comfortable in their own home and to ensure you feel comfortable with the security of your home while you are away!

About: I have been dog sitting and house sitting since 2019. I have been a dog mom for a year now and I absolutely love being around animals! I always worry about my baby boy while I am out of town and I want to provide your fur babies with the best care and love they can get while their parents are away! I am available 24/7 willing to do overnight stays and weekends as well! I am able to check in for a visit every 4-8 hours to ensure their safety and comfortability! If the pets are in my home, I have multiple blankets and dog beds, dog bowls, cat toys and dog toys, treats of all kinds, and many dog parks to take them to get their energy out! If I come to your home, I will be sure to allow them free range to everything they are used to and follow their schedule to a T!

About: I have my own dog. I've grown up with dogs. I worked at a pet store when I was a teenager, and have house/pet sat before. Although, I'm not a vet, I'm observant and will keep an eye out for issues that concern you. Pet health is important. That includes nutrition and grooming. I know some think there is such a thing as over involved pet parents, I think they're family and should be treated as such. I volunteer at my church every Thursday, Backpack Program fifth Wednesdays (when they occur) and Orphan Grain Train every other month on the third Thursday. Otherwise, I take care of my dad who has COPD. I have to be home to cook for him. And take care of my own dog. Eventually, I will allow dogs to stay with me overnight, but I want to make sure my dog and said dogs get along. So that is my availability. I have a pitbull mix. She is very good around other dogs. Especially after she gets to know them. She's not aggressive, just tends to hump when excited. All dogs will need a leash if they are coming with me. I have walking trails in my community. I have no problem walking your dogs in them. Please make sure they have up to date tick meds. Also I live with my dad he will be petting and loving any pet that spends the night. My house is two story, so if you have a senior dog that needs help just let me know.

About: I am very skilled with animals ! I’ve grown up with showing and raising different kinds of animals my whole life ! It would be a pleasure to help care for yours ! I’m currently a server at a restaurant , I work a couple night shifts weekly ! During the day I am open and free ! I currently live in a nice neighborhood with our own fenced in yard ! I also have a dog which is a golden retriever and she loves other dogs !

“Madison is awesome. My dog really loves her! She’s on time and spends quality time with Frankie.”

About: I have experience with a variety of breeds of dogs. I have owned dogs that are super high maintenance, dogs that love to lounge, anxiety ridden dogs, and dogs that are on the spicy side. I understand the different cues of dogs and how to read their body language. I have experience in walking multiple dogs. I also have experience in training dogs. I trained my Shetland Sheepdog for 4H and we made it to the state fair. I also taught him many silly tricks. I can be a professional fetch player or a professional cuddler, whichever your dog prefers. I can also just be a treat giver if your dog prefers space. I am currently working part time as a server, but my schedule is very flexible. I am a recently graduated college student, with the hopes of going to graduate school in the coming semester. Animal trust is very important to me. It is important that I earn you and your animals trust, and we can grow to be best friends or acquaintances if your animal is not into that. I hope to make your time away from your animal as easy as possible.

About: I would love to meet your fur babies. I'm retired from 35 yrs as a Social Worker. Now, I can pet sit full time. Call or text with any questions or to book my services! I'm able to come to your home while you're away! Whether you're working extra long hours or away on vacation, I can watch your pets when you are gone from home. I only watch pets in their home environments. This is less stressful/traumatic on pets, than a kennel stay. Also, your pet will avoid getting diseases from the other animals at kennel. I don't charge per pet or per size fees either!

About: Hi, I say 15 years of pet care experience but I have always had an animal or reptile in the house. Through the years/growing up my family has had a lab, dachshunds, and a lab/pit mix, all ranging from puppy to adult. I also have experience dog sitting for multiple coworkers while they are out of town, so my schedule is flexible as far as weekdays, weekends, and holidays. I absolutely love dogs and am willing to do what it takes to care for them. If they were to come to stay with me there would be a DIY fenced in area to play. Recently got a pup of my own so all must be open to her. She is a full blooded basset who loves to play sleep and cuddle. She loves people and others animals! Just wants someone to play and chase! I’m working full time which is 4 10 hr shifts. Typically no weekends. As long as they can manage to be cooped up that long im very flexible. I can do in home stays which is currently what I’ve been doing. If not they are welcome in my home. Can work with holidays and other needs Walking playing and special needs that may need to be provided. Cleaning up when necessary. Making sure they too feel comfortable with myself and dog of my own. Just let me know what your needs are!

About: I love animals with a passion. I always have! Ever since I was little I’ve taken care of all types of dogs and cats weather they were mine or a close friend’s, I was always a pet person. Growing up my parents had rabbits, goats, horses, cats, and dogs and I learned how to care for each and everyone of them. I have 2 beautiful pets of my own. A cat named Nova, whom I’ve raised from 3 weeks old without a mother, and a beautiful 5 month old cane corso puppy who is so well behaved and a joy to be around. I’ve raised 2 sets of kittens and assisted in training dogs for friends and family. I enjoy all breeds of both cats and dogs and would honored to have the privilege of caring for more! As of right now I don’t have a job because I really want to do something I enjoy doing while making stable income. Pet setting seemed like a good step for me! I do not have a fenced in yard, but I have 2 lead ropes outside and a kennel inside. I always supervise them when they go outside. The water bowls are always full and the animals are fed on the scheduled time. Only pet toys remain on the floor and all other items are picked up so there is no safety issues. Dogs and cats are supervised at all times. Lots of cuddles and play time inside and out.
