About: I've been caring for my dogs since I was just a child and have always felt a deep connection to animals. I used to do dog walking for some time and have volunteered in a grooming location as well. You can be certain your furry friend will receive the best care with me! I currently stay at home with my son so I have a pretty open schedule. In the afternoon we go for walks in our neighborhood so we'd love to bring your pup along on a walk with us! We have a front and backyard which are both enclosed with a gate. It's pretty spacious so we'd definitely have a good time. At the moment I don't have a pet of my own- we recently lost our girl due to age at 15 years old. She was such a sweet girl and we loved her dearly. We hope to adopt another one in the near future, but for now I'd like to take care of other babies. You can be confident that your dog will be provided with my best attention. Maintaining his or her routine, such as feeding schedules, will also be my top priority.

About: I have experience taking care my own, friends’, and Rover dogs of all sizes and personalities by feeding, walking, training, and house sitting. Having owned my own large dog, I know the privilege and responsibility required to care and love your buddy. I am open to any special needs or care your dogs may require and am happy to work with your agenda. Growing up in a household with two cats and two dogs, I am more than happy to accommodate both types of pets! :) I work full-time schedule during the week, so my dedicated pet-sitting days are my priority during my time off. I treat my days off as fully committed 'pet days,' allowing me to focus on consistent routines and care for your pet. On my sitting days, my routine is completely centered around the animals in my care. A typical day includes structured morning and evening walks, dedicated playtime, and maintaining strict feeding and medication schedules. Because I value an active and healthy lifestyle, I love incorporating pets into my own daily movement for morning walks, a midday stroll, or active play sessions to keep them stimulated and happy. I also enjoy watching YouTube and Netflix, so if your pet prefers relaxing or feeling tired that day, I am happy to put on a show as well. I am excited to give the structure, exercise, and love your pet needs to feel comfortable and enjoy our time together. I am hoping to care for pets in your home, because I find it keeps them happiest and reduces any stress. By blending seamlessly into your pet’s routine and environment for feeding, exercise, and bedtime, I can keep them active, healthy, and stimulated with structured walks and plenty of dedicated playtime. Of course, I’ll treat your home with respect and security, making sure to send regular updates and photos so you can have complete peace of mind while you're away.

“Patricia did a great job walking Patches and spent quality time with her. We felt at ease knowing our fur baby was well taken care off. We will definitely use her again! Five stars for you!????”

About: What sets me apart is honestly my genuine love for animals. It started when I was around 12 years old when I got my very first dog, and ever since then I completely fell in love with caring for animals. Over time, my family and I adopted more dogs. Friends and neighbors have also trusted me to personally care for and babysit their dogs over the years. Sometimes I’ll stop by throughout the day to check on their pups, feed them, play with them, and make sure they’re doing okay, while other times their dogs have stayed at my house for a few days or even a few weeks. Having so many pets has taught me a lot about patience, responsibility, and understanding different animal personalities and needs. I’ve also cared for many different kinds of animals growing up, including fish, hamsters, lizards, and birds, so I’ve learned a lot about caring for all types of pets. My own dogs have also had litters of puppies before, which taught me so much about caring for newborn puppies and younger dogs. Because of that, I’ve gained experience with dogs of all ages, from newborn puppies to senior dogs. I truly see animals as family, and I love making them feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for. Pet care fits really naturally into my routine because I already spend a lot of my time around animals and genuinely enjoy caring for them. I currently work part-time only on weekends, but my hours and availability are very flexible since I basically make my own schedule. That allows me to give pets lots of attention throughout the day, whether that’s walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, or just keeping them company. When caring for pets, I always focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. In my home, pets are supervised, cared for closely, and treated like family in a clean and calm environment. In a client’s home, I always follow their instructions carefully and try to keep their pet’s normal routine so they can feel relaxed and comfortable while their owners are away.

About: I've been caring for dogs since I was 10, looking after my own pets and neighbor's dog when they're out of town. I understand the importance of companionship and make it my mission to ensure your furry friends feel loved and never alone. Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Whether it be my own or a neighbor's, l've always gone above and beyond to ensure that the animal is well taken care of. I will make sure your dog gets the specific attention and care that they need, and they have an enjoyable experience. This work goes far beyond simply watching dogs, it’s about providing consistent, attentive, and trustworthy care to dogs who are an important part of your family. I take pride in being reliable, patient, and detail oriented, making sure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I put into every visit. I treat every dog as if they were my own, pay close attention to their individual needs, and maintain clear, consistent communication with owners for peace of mind. Sparky is the reason behind it all. He showed me a love I can’t even fully put into words, loyal, pure, and unconditional. He wasn’t just my dog, he was my comfort, my routine, and a piece of my heart. Losing him was one of the hardest things I’ve ever gone through, and there are still moments I feel that emptiness so deeply. But at the same time, he gave my life so much meaning and showed me exactly the kind of care and love every dog deserves. Because of Sparky, I’m more patient, more understanding, and more intentional with every dog I care for. I know how much they mean to you, because I know what it feels like to love a dog with your whole heart. A part of him lives on in everything I do, in every walk, every cuddle, and every moment I spend making sure your babies feel safe and loved. I am a dedicated dog sitter with a flexible schedule and reliable transportation, allowing me to offer drop in appointments on any day that works best for you.

About: I have worked with animals since I was a little girl on my grandpas farm! I worked in dog boarding, dog grooming and did an internship through the SPCA.

I currently work part time at a bank so I have lots of availability especially on weekends. I usually work 4-6 hours during the day.

About: I've had dogs growing up, so I can tell when they're nervous or if something is wrong. I own a husky who is now 2, and loves walks and play time! She's also a cuddler, so cuddles will be provided! My poodle who is 7 years old is still full of energy, but, sometimes likes her privacy. So I have dogs of multiple personalities. I'm a full-time student and also a brand new mom. My fiancé works overnight so, there is no issue on who can watch my baby. I speak 2 languages, and I trying to receive my certificate in another. I speak: English, Spanish, and ASL (The language I'm trying to get my certificate in.) I hope to hear from you guys soon!

“Thank you so much for making my pups happy. While I’m traveling for work the pups stopped eating and only would eat when Melissa showed up. Melissa was definitely the highlight of their day and her presence made them not only extremely happy, but apparently gave them their appetite back. Thank you!”
