I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes and temperaments and I’m comfortable following detailed routines, feeding schedules, and administering medications if needed. I’m a full-time author with a flexible schedule, so I’m available for consistent walks, drop-ins, and daytime care. Weekday midday visits and after-work slots are my most popular, and I keep a few standing times open for repeat clients who need reliable coverage during the week. I’m also available for house sitting. If you’re looking for ongoing care, I’m happy to help you with a routine that works for you and your dog.

About: Hi! I’m Hallie. I am a lifelong dog lover who understands how important it is to trust someone with your pets. I grew up around dogs and currently have two of my own who are basically my whole world. Because I’m a dog parent myself, I know how much care, patience, and attention each dog deserves. I’m very active and love long walks, beach walks, and getting outside, so your dog will get plenty of exercise and attention. I’m comfortable with different personalities and energy levels, including dogs who may be a little shy, reactive, or still learning the ropes. One of my own dogs is a rescue, so I’m very patient and experienced with dogs who need a little extra reassurance and confidence building on walks. Safety and communication are really important to me, so I always make sure dogs feel secure, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’m happy to send updates, photos, and videos so you can feel at ease knowing your pup is having a great time. Whether your dog needs a fun walk, some company during the day, or extra attention while you’re away, I’ll treat them like one of my own! Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine because I have two dogs of my own. My days revolve around walks, exercise, and making sure they’re happy and well cared for, so adding additional walks or drop-in visits fits very naturally into my schedule. I’m active, reliable, and love spending time outside with dogs of all energy levels. I care for every pet like they’re my own. I follow their normal routine for feeding, walks, and playtime so they feel comfortable while you’re away. I’m attentive, patient, and always prioritize safety, and I’m happy to send updates and photos so you know your pet is in good hands.

About: I have experience with puppies (basic training, routines) and senior dogs (gentle care, medications), and I treat every pet like my own while keeping owners updated and worry free. Pet care fits naturally into my routine since I work from home, allowing me to give dogs plenty of attention, supervision, and frequent breaks throughout the day. I also occasionally babysit for a friend nearby, which is easy to balance with pet care and never takes me far from the home. This flexibility lets me maintain consistent routines, playtime, and quality care for every pet. I follow each pet’s usual routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. I provide plenty of supervision, playtime, walks, and affection, along with feeding and any special care needed. I keep the environment safe and calm, respect house rules, and share regular updates so owners always know how their pet is doing. 🐾

About: Your pets are in great care ,while you’re enjoying your time away your dogs will be in safe hands living their best lives having fun at the beach. I will keep in contact throughout their stay, send photos and let you know how they are getting on. I have had the same clients for 5 years every week. I’m a stay at home mum, with all the fun. I moved from England to west gilgo 5 years ago. They will have company and walks throughout the whole day and the comfort of my home through the night. When my parents come to visit also throughout the year they get extra love. Walks throughout the day, fresh water is checked often, always plenty of love and comfort to give. I treat them as if they are my own, I have had dogs my whole life up until last year. I follow instructions that are given. Have to be child friendly

“Super helpful and friendly. Our dog already loves him and anticipates his arrival. Alec is great with communication and arrives on time if not a bit earlier than scheduled which is great. I enjoyed getting the photo updates from the walks and any additional feedback in regards to how my dog was behaving or how his potty breaks went.”

About: My family and I all love animals, so we applied to be pet's sitters at home care. We have a independent house with a yard, and there will always be someone at home 24 hours a day. The pets can move freely at home without too many restrictions. We have regularly clean to the house to ensure the clean and hygiene environment for all pets. I have over a year of experience in taking care of cats and over six years of experience in taking care of dogs. The longest time I took care of a cat was for two months. At the beginning, the cat would hide under the sofa for a week, but lately he became completely unrestrained and would lie on the bed together, play hide-and-seek with me, and explore every corner of the house. When the weather was good, the dogs could play freely in the yard. Welcome all cats and dogsto my home, we are the best friends of your pets! We can keep daily routine for all pet's. I am working part-time on weekends and I will come back at 4PM , but my family members are off on weekends. And my family members and I take care of all pets together. We have a independent house with a yard, and there will always be someone at home 24 hours a day. The pets can move freely at home without too many restrictions. We have regularly cleaning to the house to ensure the clean and hygiene environment for all pets. When the weather was good, the dogs could play freely in the yard.

About: I really care about creating a space where your dog feels safe, understood, and at ease. I like to take the time to get to know each dog’s personality and what they need—whether they’re super energetic, a bit shy, or somewhere in between. I have experience with both active dogs and more sensitive ones, and I try to approach each situation with patience and attention. I’m also very observant, so I tend to notice small changes in behavior or mood and respond quickly if something feels off. My goal isn’t just to “watch” your dog, but to make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and genuinely supported while you’re away. I also come from a professional background where I’ve managed schedules and worked closely with clients, so I’m organized, reliable, and good at communicating. I'll always keep you updated and make sure everything runs smoothly. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I can plan my days around visits, walks, or check-ins. I keep a flexible schedule, which allows me to be consistent and reliable with timing, something I know is important for pets. I’m available for daily visits, walks, and check-ins, and I always make sure each pet gets the time and attention they need without rushing. I also like to keep routines consistent, so your pet can feel as comfortable and settled as possible while you’re away. I always prioritize creating a calm, safe, and respectful environment for every pet. In a client’s home, I’m very mindful of their space and follow all instructions closely—from feeding routines to walks, litter care, or any specific needs your pet may have. I pay close attention to behavior and surroundings to make sure your pet feels secure, and I avoid situations that could cause stress or discomfort. I’m also careful with doors, leashes, and home safety to prevent any risks. Building trust is very important to me, so I keep communication clear and consistent, with regular updates, so you always know how your pet is doing.

About: Grew around German Sheppards and Chow Chows so super comfortable around larger dogs. I don’t believe all of the negative stereotypes that follow certain breeds. I’ve cared for dogs and cats for my friends and families for many years. I work from home, which means I have the ability to provide your animal with as many pets/ cuddles and walks they can stand 🙌🏼 When caring for someone’s pet I make sure to follow every request, each animal is different so I depend upon the owners direction for how to make them comfortable and happy.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my experience working with dogs in structured, public, and therapeutic settings. I am a high school teacher and regularly bring my certified comfort dog, Darla, into schools and community environments, so I am very comfortable handling dogs around different people, situations, and routines. I am patient, responsible, dependable, and focused on making every pet feel safe, comfortable, active, and loved while in my care. How does pet care fit into your daily or weekly routine? Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I already spend a lot of time caring for and working with dogs. I am a high school teacher, which gives me a consistent schedule during the school year and full availability during summers and school breaks. My schedule allows me to provide reliable walks, drop-ins, playtime, feeding, and attention throughout the week. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, so pet care is something I genuinely enjoy making part of my routine. I always focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible.

“Bradley has been an absolutely fantastic dog walker. He is incredibly friendly, caring, and understanding, and it’s clear from the start that he genuinely loves working with animals. He consistently goes above and beyond during walks — even incorporating a bit of running, which my dog absolutely loves and benefits from. Bradley is also extremely responsive and communicative, which gives me great peace of mind. I always know my dog is in good hands with him. It’s rare to find someone who truly cares about the pets they look after, but Bradley definitely does. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and compassionate dog walker.”

About: I have been very passionate about animals and the environment since I was 3 years old! I grew up around so many animals and it encouraged me to pursue a career in veterinary medicine. At a very young age I was introduced the opportunity to petsit for dogs and cats/kittens in my family. Later around 8 years ago I was able to start working in a more professional manner and cared for not only cats, kittens, and dogs but birds, different reptiles, and some aquatic pets! All these experiences are amazing and they just motivate my love and passion for animals. I have worked with pets of all ages as well as many with special diets and medications. Aside from my experience, I am a very energetic person! I love to go on hikes, runs, bikes, you name it! You can rest assured that your fur babies will get all the love, care, and enjoyment with me! I am an undergraduate student and I am currently a vet technician/assistant practicing with a couple clinica , which allows me plenty of time to care for your lovely fur babies! My availability is very flexible right now. I do have a large fenced yard! I have 1 energetic doggie named Milo and 2 cats named Blue and Maya Papaya. Milo does have social anxiety, so I will keep separate in order for both parties to feel comfortable. And for my cats they are very soft, kind, and friendly with everyone including dogs. You can rest assured that your baby is in great hands, as my top priority is their trust, comfort, and health!
