About: I grew up with pets. We’ve owned five dogs three cats eight fish and one lizard over the years. I was always the one to watch them and I love it. I am 21 years old and an online college student. I’m looking for a job but so far pet sitting is the route. I currently don’t drive so I would have to spend the night and definitely need Wi-Fi. I always follow instructions left by the pet owners, but I also like trying to get the animals, engaged and activities, a lot of cuddles and all around, just give them peace of mind.
About: I have one acre of land that is fenced in. I am in a quiet neighborhood with a pool and tons of dog toys. I have 3 small dogs and a 1 year old that loves doggies. I currently have 3 dogs that I take care of day and night. I have a doggie door and a screened in porch for some shade. I am very attentive of dogs body language. Having a baby around 3 dogs has made me extremely aware of there stress signals. I also love cuddling and playing with dogs.
About: I have worked with animals my entire life. I am patient, reliable, energetic, and love playing with animals. Dog walking: Will walk dogs for short OR long distances. Will take dogs to dog parks. Dog sitting: will pop in for play dates and care for animals. I am currently a full time Student and Men’s Soccer player for Nelson University. However, I am available Monday-Saturday from (roughly) 1-10p.m. I am flexible and willing to make time for my clients if necessary. I do not offer dog sitting at my own place. I do offer dog sitting at your home! I can feed and crate the animal if need be. I also can administer any medications. I have plenty of experience dog sitting for neighbors and friends so you can count on me to keep things under control.
“We hired Heather to housesit and watch our two dogs for two nights. She was a dream to work with! She left my home how we left it; frankly I couldn’t even tell anyone was there. She was very respectful of my house rules & my dog care preferences. Heather was punctual, respectful and has great communication. Our pups clearly enjoyed her presence and also, they loved staying home and not going to a traditional boarding situation which was huge for us. We have a large breed #110 dog and a #6 dog which she handled both with ease. We look forward to booking her again in the future and would recommend her to anyone!”
“Alisha provided exceptional care for our two pups, Astro and Comet, while we were away. We were anxious leaving our fur babies behind, but Alisha made us feel safe and comfortable with regular updates and affectionate care. It's clear that she treats pets as if they were her own. We will absolutely be utilizing Alisha's services again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone in need of a reliable and loving pet sitter. A true gem!”
“Energy overload! Kelly was an excellent pup sitter for our 10 month old Cavapoo during our 5 day vacation. She was very communicative and sent lots of pictures of them having fun together. I highly recommend her for you and your pups needs. Cindy Gillaspie and pup Willow.”
“Hillary, really came through for us. We had contacted her about one of our babies staying with her in April for a week and had planned to meet. I ended up contacting her Wednesday to see if she could help out with both of our dogs for an unplanned emergency trip. She came that day and met the dogs and managed to fit them into her busy weekend. I have one dog who is an 85 pound, 6 year old boxer who is timid around strangers and a 10 year old rescue. When Hillary walked into my home both dogs ran to her. The day we dropped them off, neither acted like it was a big deal. She sent pictures several times over the 24 hour period and when we got there to pick them up they seemed to be happy to stay longer She will have our babies again in April and July.”
About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. From getting my first family dog at age 5, to adopting my own at 12, to fostering and training dogs for loving family homes; caring for pets has always been part of my life. Over the years, I’ve raised puppies, provided safe homes for sheltered and neglected pets, and cared for senior dogs in their final years. I know how important it is to give pets the love, attention, and proper care they deserve, and I’ll treat yours like my own. I work full-time from 8 AM to 5 PM, but my schedule is flexible enough to care for your pet during the day. I have a one-hour lunch break that I can use to walk, feed, or play with your furry friend. The only times I’m typically unavailable are Wednesday evenings at 8 PM and Sunday mornings from 9 AM to 12 PM. Outside of those, I’m happy to work around your pet’s needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort come first. In my home, I provide a clean, pet-friendly space with fresh water, secure areas, and plenty of playtime. In your home, I follow your instructions closely, keep doors and gates secure, and treat your pet like my own; with love, attention, and care. I’m also happy to take pets to local pet-friendly parks for walks and fresh air.
