About: I live in a quiet, safe neighborhood and enjoy a peaceful home environment. I work, stay active in my church, and love winding down with a good book or movie. I’m down-to-earth and will treat your dog like family. My daughter, who’s now abroad, used to dog sit and encouraged me to try it myself—knowing how much I love dogs, even though I’m not ready to have one full-time. I often helped her with dog sitting before she left, and truly enjoyed the companionship. It would be a blessing to care for your pet and offer you peace of mind. I’m flexible, reliable, and would have a great time making sure your dog feels safe and loved. I work hybrid, which means your pet will have plenty of attention, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. I love taking regular breaks to go on walks, give belly rubs, or just relax with a furry friend nearby. My flexible schedule allows me to accommodate feeding routines, bathroom breaks, and any special care your pet may need. I live in a quiet, pet-friendly apartment with plenty of space for your dog to relax comfortably. While I don’t have a backyard, I take regular walks in safe, green areas nearby and always supervise outdoor time. I follow your care instructions closely, including feeding, medications, and routines, and I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos. Whether in my home or yours, I provide calm, attentive care to help your pet feel secure and loved.

About: I have been watching animals for over 13 years now and there has never been an animal I haven't been able to connect with. It's truly a gift, that clients have recognized throughout my services. Being able to connect with animals and taking care of them is my passion; they are truly our saviors! I am gig worker who gets to set their own schedule. I really have an open schedule for various animal care needs. Also this allows more time with your animal! I have a fenced in back yard and a safe, clean home. I am a relaxed and easy-going person, I will treat your house with respect and care, making no messes.

About: I'm a 39 year old direct care worker. I've grown up with dogs and cats all my life. I currently have a dog and cat. My experience in pet care is from taking care of my own and volunteering for friends and family. I was a kennel technician for a year at the Humane Society and have volunteered there over the years. I am working minimum part time right now. I am available during days and evenings, as I work 3rd shift, and will be available some nights and overnights also. I will follow the established routine you provide, providing plenty of companionship and care your pet needs, ensuring your their safety, all while giving you regular updates.

About: I have a senior golden retriever who requires tedious care and have previous experience pet sitting and dog walking. I love all animals, especially dogs! In the past, I have been an in-house multi day dog sitter and dog walker. I am very active, so if your dog likes to walk long distances or go for runs, they can tag along! I’m currently working part time and have lots of time on my hands! This summer, my job doesn’t necessarily follow the same schedule every week but I am very flexible and available almost every day. Some days I don’t work at all and others I work short shifts so I could be available pretty much whenever you need me! I have a decent sized yard, a super friendly senior golden retriever at home and a crate, dog toys, and extra dog bed if needed!

About: I’ve cared for cats and dogs my entire life, with hands-on experience supporting pets through all life stages and needs. Whether your pet requires medication management, specialized diet adherence, mobility assistance, or extra patience due to age or disability, I approach each animal as an individual deserving attentive, compassionate care. I don’t just follow instructions, I notice subtle changes in behavior, anticipate needs, and communicate proactively with owners so you have complete peace of mind while you’re away. I am currently working part time as a painter, part time with Rover, and volunteering for Harbor Humane, but worry not. I can make my schedule completely open for any pet care needs. I will rarely be unavailable. I prioritize your pet’s routine and comfort above all. Whether that means leash walks through your neighborhood, supervised backyard play in their familiar space, or respecting crating schedules you’ve established, I adapt to what works for your pet, not what’s easiest for me. I ensure fresh water is always available, meals are served on time, and any special instructions (door security, alarm codes, plant watering) are followed exactly. Beyond the basics, I make time for real connection like belly rubs, play sessions, or just calm companionship for anxious pets. You’ll come home to a pet who felt cared for, not just looked after.

About: I provide loving, reliable care and treat every dog like family. I’m attentive to each dog’s unique needs, experienced with puppies and senior dogs, and always keep owners updated for peace of mind. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I make time for walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention to ensure each dog feels comfortable, safe, and loved while in my care. I follow each pet’s regular routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. I provide feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and lots of love and attention. I also make sure their environment stays clean and safe and keep owners updated with messages and photos while they’re away.

About: My first job at 12 was dog walking/sitting but I have been a lifelong animal lover! I grew up with dogs and adopted my cat about 8 years ago. I have cared for both young and elderly dogs/cats as well as those with special needs and medical conditions. I am currently a stay at home mom with my five year old son. My availability is very open especially going into the summer months. Although I may not be able to do overnight stays at this time, I can do later evenings and earlier mornings. I do have a fenced in backyard that I can accommodate your pup with! I also have a dog in my home who is very friendly and would love play if you allow it. If not I will keep them separate. I can take your dog out to a local trail or walk them in your neighborhood. With cats I would be vigilant in keeping them away from open doors unless allowed. I know they love to explore small spaces and I take extra precautions to keep my girl safe! I love getting to know all the unique personalities of different cats, I love a good cuddle as well as some fun playtime. I have a special place in my heart for senior kitties.

About: I've taken care of many dogs for friends and family members. Trained puppies for family as well as my own. Cared for older dogs who needed extensive care.

About: I've been pet sitting for a few years now! I grew up with dogs, cats, fish, and hamsters, and they were integral members of our family. I absolutely love meeting and taking care of new pets, and I've gotten pretty good at it over time. I'll take dogs on walks, or to the dog park, dog beach, and give them baths if needed. I work monday-friday 9-2 so as long as your dog is good on their own for 5-6 hours, it will work out! Otherwise won't leave them alone for more than 6 hours. Not able to have the dogs at our house, but I'll gladly care for your pets at your home in whatever fashion works best for you!

About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my love and experience. I have a vast knowledge of animals and have cared for both dogs and cats since the age of 10. I have experience caring for puppies through to elderly dogs involving tasks such as feeding, walking, and bathing. I am able to care for multiple animals at the same time due to my high level of responsibility and the fact that I currently live with 4 dogs and 2 cats. Pet care has been apart of my daily life for as long as I can remember and want to make sure every animal is given excellent care. In my personal life, I take my dogs for walks everyday and make sure they’re fed on time. I feed my cats and give them lots of love throughout the day as well. I get all the information from the pet owner to ensure the animal feels safe and comfortable with me. I take caution when approaching them until they’re use to me as to not scare them. I make sure to either give them lots of love or space depending on the type of animal they are. Mainly just follow the information given to me by their owner while also making sure the animal knows I am their friend.

About: I have grown up, been around, and generally loved all dogs my whole life. I can be gentle, energetic, and cuddly with your pup. I come dressed for any kind of weather; rain, sun, or snow! I have experience with giving liquid or pill medications orally also. I’m currently working part-time from home. I’ll be available to play with your pups during the week or most weekends! I’m available mostly during the week, but weekends are not out of the question. I have a golden retriever named Tucker who gets along with other dogs and would love a playmate. He does however, easily respect if other dogs do not want the attention. I am also located in between quite a few dog parks. Quincy park, East End Park (both fenced) Kirk Park, which has a great dog beach! Mulligans and Pigeon park are a couple of other places I love to walk (or run) my pup! We love going to dog parks!! My husband and son also would also love to play with your pup! If you bother to look at my pictures, it is pretty evident that we love to take our dog everywhere with us! My husband will also bring our dog to work with him.
