About: I am in love with all animals, dogs, cats, you name it, I can watch it! I have helped train a few dogs, such as past pets and my brothers dog, as well as taken care of each of them. I have house sat multiple occasions to take care of family friends animals while they are out of town. I have stayed overnight at family members homes to take care of their animals while they are on vacation or working. No animal is intimidating to me, I love them all! I am great with small animals, large animals, hyper animals, all kinds. Nothing is a challenge for me! I try to keep a healthy, fit lifestyle, so I am up for any activity for any animal. Also, I am a teacher so my summer is open! I am a teacher, so my availability is wide open right now! I can provide any services listed on my profile up until mid August, then my availability will be lower. Currently, I cannot board animals at my home, however, I can certainly watch over them at their home or walk with in my neighborhood or in yours. I’d want to meet the animals first, so they know who I am beforehand. And if you have a certain schedule for your animals, I will stick by it!

About: Hi! I am Shelby, and my husband is Jason. We are a married couple with two small pups of our own and family dogs of all sizes. I have many years of experience sitting for neighbors, friends, family, and other connections. Additionally, I have volunteer experience with shelters and rescues. I will make sure to treat your babies as well as we treat our own...they are our family. We take multiple walks a day and enjoy a good game of fetch. Our townhouse features a doggie door and fenced yard. Medication can be administered as needed, but please let us know all directions ahead of time. We like to get pictures of our own pups, so please expect pictures of your own unless otherwise requested. We look forward to meeting you and your fur-babies. Your pups are welcome on weekdays and weekends. I am working part time, but only on days when I don't have dogs staying with us. I have a townhome with a fenced yard and a doggie door. I am able to crate your dog if needed, but that is your preference. We also have a baby gate that keeps dogs downstairs with me during the day.

“Marina did a great job with twice daily drop-ins for 3 cats for 4 days. The cats where all comfortable with her and all went smoothly. She also seems to be a genuinely nice person. She is going to come by for drop-ins for my cats on my next trip as well!”

“Camilo is the kindest person I know with animals. I currently have a Samoyed dog called Apollo and he was in charge of bathing and walking him during the week. He is a very patient person and has a vocation for working with animals. Even when Apollo was sick, he came to visit him without having the need. I recommend Juan for any job that has to do with pets and communication with people.”
