About: As an avid animal lover with six years of experience working with dogs—including those who are sick, injured, scared, or have been abused—I can accommodate any special requests to ensure your dog's comfort and happiness. My home is a safe, smoke, drug, and alcohol-free environment where your dog will feel loved and secure. Big or small, every dog is welcome! I aim to make your dog excited for every visit. Consider me to be your dog's home away from home! Early Morning (6-8 AM): I start the day with potty breaks and individual or group walks based on compatibility and needs. Provide fresh water and food according to each dog’s specific dietary plan. Late Morning (10 AM-12 PM): Engage in playtime, which could include fetch, puzzle toys, or simply supervised free play in a secure area followed by supervised outside time. Afternoon (2-4 PM): Quiet time for rest or individual attention like grooming, brushing, or cuddles. This helps reduce anxiety and provides a calm environment. Evening (6-8 PM): Dinner service, followed by a final walk to allow for potty breaks before bedtime. * Night (9-10 PM): Final check to ensure all dogs are comfortable, have access to water, and are securely settled for the night. Address any late-night needs like anxiety or discomfort. My top priority is creating a safe, fun, and comfortable environment for every dog in my care. Each day includes structured playtime, regular walks, and plenty of opportunities for socialization, tailored to their individual energy levels and personalities. I provide nutritious meals, fresh water, and cozy resting spots to ensure their physical needs are met. Most importantly, I offer constant attention, affection, and a watchful eye to make sure each dog feels secure, loved, and right at home during their stay.

About: There is nothing like putting on the leash and taking a walk with a furry buddy. I have grown up around small tea cup chichuahaha to mastiff size dogs. At times dealing with multiple dogs up to 6 different breeds. I enjoyed walking and throwing the ball around. Personally just adopted a 10 year pug. Miss Otis ( the pug) has been loving her new home with me and my girlfriend I been looking into getting into dog caring more. Recently I been dog sitting for friends and a relatives friends. They were always pleased when they returned home and their furry friend was happily home waiting. I never met a dog that I would give a shot. No breed will be shut down. I'm willing to work with your dog if your willing to choose me.

About: I’ve had dogs ever since I can remember. I have such a passion for animals of all types, but dogs hold a special place in my heart. I really believe that they become part of the family and should be treated as such. I have a pup of my own who loves other dogs! I work a typical 9-5 job, but I am home on the weekends and would love to care for your fur baby! I have a good sized fenced in yard, where your pup will be free to run around and play, always supervised! They are allowed on the furniture and I have plenty of space to accommodate for kennels or playpens.

Katie did great with my kitties. They’re usually scared of strangers and slow to warm up to people but they seemed to take a quick liking to her! She was timely with their visits every day and always let me know how they were doing. I genuinely looked forward to the pictures she sent me of them every day, it helped me miss them a little less. :)

About: I've taken care of animals of all sorts from dogs, cats, horses, rabbits, birds, chicken, etc since I was about 9 or 10. I had a dog growing up, and I now have a dog and 4 horses of my own along side my horse training business. I love all animals and have taken care of puppies and other baby animals all the way to older senior animals as well. I have experience walking, feeding, bathing, as well as giving medication, plus the general playing and cuddling most animals love. I work at a local church, so I can check on your animals throughout the day between meetings and phone calls. My evenings are flexible, so I can come to your home to watch them overnight if you're gone for a trip or walk them in the afternoon. I mainly take care of pets in your home right now. Depending on the situation and length of time, I can sometimes make an exception to this especially if your dog doesn't shed. I am more than happy to work with clients to best suit their needs and their pet's needs.

About: I love to play with dogs and being able to take of them. I currently have a dog of my own and since I adopted him, I was able to teach him new tricks so playing with other dogs/puppies will be something I enjoy! Also I did a dog training class through PETCO with my dog. I am also a very active guy who loves to run and I can easily run with dogs who needs to run or even take them to the park which is something that I do to my dog. When I got my dog a few months ago, I loved every moment that I had with him. I look forward to having a chance on spending time with your puppy/dog.

About: Hi, I’m Sadie! We are a military family that has a five year old and two dogs! Kobe is a standard poodle and Honey who is a golden doodle! I know that with having dogs it can be hard to find care so you & your family can take leave to go see family! So I’m hoping I can give families that opportunity. Can’t wait to hear from some of you guys and get to love on your furry babies! Have a blessed day!! I currently work from home Monday-Friday and available weekdays all day! Could offer 3-5 potty breaks a day along with evening playtime along with walks! I have 2 fur babies that are very friendly and always up for play dates! Don’t have fenced in yard but have open backyard area. I also have 2 xl crates if needed.

About: I was born and raised in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. I grew up in a home with 5 dogs, 2 cats and 2 turtles which were all adopted from the Humane Society (except for the turtles). I learned how to care for a dog as small as a chihuahua to a dog that probably could pass for a small horse. I love going on long walks and trips to the park. One of my favorite things to do is to simply show an animal love as if we have known each other for years. I will get my hands dirty and jump in the mud with all my furry friends. I just moved to Vancouver, Washington and I am currently on the hunt to find a nice big home so I can adopt as many dogs from the shelter as I can. I am a stay at home wife until I get another overseas job. I am mostly pretty available, if not available I will definitely let you know. I am very good with following instructions. Anything you need for your pets well-being will be a priority when it’s in my care. That is guaranteed.

Courtney did a great job with my JRT, Oakley. She sent photos of her visits the first few days and Oakley looked like she was having a great time! Courtney noted that Oakley wasn't eating dinner and asked if I had any suggestions. I gave her my recipe for frozen tilapia in the microwave and Oakley ate it up! Courtney gave it to her every night afterwards--Oakley pulled one over her head! I usually make it a treat. I guess we both had great vacations! I also saw on the weather that thunder storms were happening in NWA. I told Courtney where Oakley's thunder shirt was and how to put it on...I was grateful for that.

About: I’ve been around pets my whole life. I currently have one rescued border collie mix named Spock. My husband and I have a big backyard and both love animals. I look forward to meeting you and your pet:) I am a college student so just let me know what works for you and your pet and I’m sure I’ll be able to work my life around it:) I’ll treat your pet just like I treat my own. Spock gets along great with other animals but I would love the chance for them to meet before an animal just being dropped off at my house. Spock is allergic to chicken and has high anxiety so I know how important it is to give animals the proper care they need.

Abigail was absolutely amazing with my three pets! They all loved her right away, which says a lot especially because my cat usually doesn’t let anyone touch her, but she trusted Abigail enough to let herself be handled and cared for. Abigail was very attentive, followed all the notes I left, and made sure each of my pets was comfortable, clean, and happy. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!
