“I am eternally greatful for Liz!! She came to my home and met with me pups, agreed to come and do a couple of drop ins for me during a busy weekend. Not only was her communication prompt, her care and compassion was just what my pups needed. I have a nervous dog and Liz had no issues and knew how to handle her with ease. Will definitely hire again in the future 🧡”
About: Hey there! My name is Kelsey, and I’m here to love your pets when you have to leave them. I’ve had pets my whole life, I have a 10 yr old German Shepherd who is the love of my life. I am a firm believer that once you take in an animal, you make them a promise to keep them safe, happy and healthy for the rest of their days. I take that commitment seriously, with my own animals and with yours. I’ll be back to school part time in the fall, between now and then I am happy to take on new bookings for walks and drop in visits. Staying alert and aware of my surroundings is a top priority when out with animals. After several years working with a reactive dog I have learned to deescalate and or avoid situations that could put the animals in my care, in any dangerous position. I do not allow other animals to come up to any animal in my care.
“This was my first time using this app or utilizing a pet sitter of any type ever - I was blessed to have Lindsey - She communicated and kept me in the loop - spent time with my cat and sent pics which was great when I was gone. If I travel again, I will definitely contact her - she is awesome.”
“Elena is wonderful! We can't say enough good things about her. Excellent care for our cat when we're away, great communication, fun pictures & videos daily, and a very clean house to return home to. We would highly recommend her to everyone!”

About: Hello, Im 18 years old, and just recently graduated hugh school. I am looking for a fun way to make money before I leave for college! Ive grown up taking care of dogs, and been around dogs since I was born. Ive always had a love for animals, especially dogs. I enjoy taking them for walks and watching them whenever needed. I cannot watch the dogs at my house, because my own dog isn’t friendly to other dogs, but i would be willing to come to you and dog sit/watch your dog whenever I am available to do so! I work in the mornings, but I am willing to get up early to let the dog out, and after work I would love to walk dogs! I also love working out, so taking your dog for a walk/run will fit perfectly with my schedule. I have a dog of my own, and I love teaching her new tricks and just taking care of her. If your dog doesn’t know very many tricks I would be willing to teach them simple things like sit and shake. I am available to walk your dogs as well!
About: My entire life has been filled with a Love for animals. I treat animals with the utmost respect and care. They are family. I'm am also well versed in Special needs caregiving, including harness walks, backpack walks, wheelchair use, giving medication and first aid care. I love hiking and trail walking to get those sniffers going! Enrichment and positive reinforcement are the foundation of my interaction with animals. I'm currently working full time, but my hours vary depending on the day. I have openings available, and I'm sure we can work out the details. My goal is to get moving! Going outside for some fun games in the yard, in the pool, or on a trail for environmental enrichment hikes is always a delight. I love to get those sniffers working and brains interested. I will always walk with proper equipment, including 6 foot leash, or long lead if allowed. If you have toys, games or favorite treats you would like me to use, I would love to help with keeping your pet happy. Working on training every day is an important part of caring for animals. Busy minds and bodies, make for tired & happy well rounded individuals. Safety is always at the forefront of any interaction and I am confident in my ability to observe a situation based on an animals body language and behavior.
About: I have been pet sitting all kinds of animals, since I was 10 years old. I have helped train puppies, and have taken care of senior animals. Sometimes the senior animals have a harder time while their parent is gone, so they need a little extra help. Which I am more than happy to take that time for them. I currently work full-time, will be doing this on the side. Looking to do drop in visits at this time, and dog walking. I will make sure I don't schedule anything that I can't take care of your baby appropriately. The well being of your baby is my top priority. I will do visits at your home, to best keep your baby comfortable. Whether it be a fenced in yard, teacher or a walk on the leash. I will be sure your baby is safe in my care.

I’m blessed to be able to have an opportunity to possibly love on your doggies. Due to physical reasons I’m not able ti walk to dogs but able ti let them out. I currently work full time but I’m fully remote. So my schedule is very flexible. I’m able to come to your home to watch your dogs. Due to physical limitations, I am unable to walk your dogs. But I have 15 years experience with dogs, and I absolutely love animals. I live in an apartment and I do not have a fenced in yard. Your dog and I would be more comfortable at your house. But if that’s not an option I will make exceptions for coming to my home.
