About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was a small child. I have worked in the pet care industry since I was 18 years old and currently work in Emergency Veterinary Medicine. I have a lot for pets and understand how important they are to us as people. I’m looking to meet some new four legged friends and make an little extra income when I can. I have myself a 4 year old Male/Neutured Staffordshire Terrier and a 9 year old Golden/Rottwieler Mix. My Rotti doesn’t come on adventures but if you are looking for playdates, my Staffy loves making friends! My schedule is varied, I care for my human family, my own fur babies and reptiles, while working full time in Emergency Veterinary Care. I do work 12 hour shifts 3 nights a week. Caring for your companion would be an important part of my schedule and I am willing to commit to the very important responsibility of walking, feeding, and spending time with your pets. Paying attention to details on how the pet parent already does things and trying to maintain a similar routine in walks, commands, or activities. It reinforces any training already in place, avoids any confusion or frustration on the pets side, and builds a better relationship between myself and the pets to help reduce any anxiety that comes with a new person around.

About: From time to time for the past 3 years I have taken proper care of my family’s pets outside my home but I can confidently say that I’ve been taken care of my own pets for my whole life! There hasn’t been one day that’s gone by where I haven’t taken care of them somehow. I’ve naturally grown the knowledge over the years how to properly care for small and large dogs and of course, cats! Right now I am temporarily working a part-time job, I am usually scheduled early in the mornings or evenings. I have to work around my job schedule which changes every week but I know my work schedule 2 weeks in advance. I have experience with scheduled feedings twice a day for dogs, daily feeding for cats, giving fresh water everyday, switching dogs and letting them outside throughout the entire day. I have experience with kennels for my own dogs sleep in their kennels. I have lots of experience with dogs that have to stay separated from one another due to dog fights, (my pets don’t like each other). I also have experience dog walking, playing and being able to identify changes in their well-being. I perform all these duties everyday with my own dogs and have experience doing so outside of my home. I take care of dogs that aren’t mine like my own according to the customers needs.

About: I have experience with taking care of small and medium sized dog’s of all kinds, plus I have experience with cat’s and even live stock experience! I charge for all animals being watched, if you add more animals you will have to pay for them I am currently available anytime, I don’t have anything going on right now my availability is open every day for drop in visits, dog walking etc! My cat loves attention and companionship from anyone, he love’s to play and be brushed as well as eat and take naps with me, he loves to sit and listen to me play guitar as well I am free all the time right now so please let me know! And I willl set up a meet and greet and then we will go from there! I always make sure everyone's fur babies are well cared for!

About: Hi! My name is Alyssa Rivera, and I’ve been caring for pets for over 4 years. From playful puppies and curious kittens to senior pets needing a little extra TLC, I’ve had the joy of working with animals of all ages and personalities. I’ve provided daily walks, feeding, medication administration and plenty of playtime and cuddles. Whether it’s a weekend pet-sitting job or a regular walking schedule, I treat every pet as if they were my own—loving, patient, and always attentive to their unique needs. My goal is to give pet parents peace of mind and make sure their furry companions are happy, healthy, and safe. I am currently a stay-at-home parent with a highly flexible schedule, and I have reliable childcare in place to ensure I can give my full attention to caring for your dog or cat. I maintain the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. This includes feeding according to schedule, ensuring fresh water is always available, providing daily exercise or playtime, administering medication if needed, and keeping the pet’s environment clean (like litter boxes or bedding). I also offer companionship to help reduce stress while their owner is away and provide regular updates to keep owners reassured.

About: I love all animals! There aren’t any that I can think of that I wouldn’t care for in a home. I’ve been taking care of animals since a child and currently have 2 dogs and 2 ducks and a fish. I can also care for rodents and reptiles. I have open availability for all jobs. I prefer to either drop in and out or board them at my house as needed due to my own animals. At home, we have a large fenced yard and I walk our dogs daily. I feed according to your specifications and am flexible to your pets needs. At your place, I like to go over your pet's favorite things to do there and see where the toys are kept!

About: I've taken care of pets since I was 18, I care about your animals and I want everyone to feel comfortable. I'm very adaptable and want to make sure that your fur babies are on schedule when their mom or dad are out of town or at work. I love spending time with animals, and I appreciate developing new relationships! I'm currently working PRN so I have tons of time for you and your fur babies! I'm available all week from 7:00am-7:00pm, if my schedule changes I'll communicate my needs to match yours. When I'm staying as a guest in someone's home, your animal's safety is the most important. I try to make sure their environment isn't disturbed, and they stay as cozy as possible. I hang out with them majority of the day and probably leave them for 2 hours max during the day to go to the gym, or tend to my own animals. I'm flexible with what your expectations are for your own home and fur babies!

About: I've cared for pets since I was 8. Grew up with fish, cats, dogs, and some reptiles. I had a neighbor who had horses and a goose, and I'd help with them as well. I've cared for old and young animals, at the same time. I am not afraid of snakes or rats. I have a very limited sense of smell, so general animal odors aren't a problem for me. I work part time as of now, and have plenty of time to look after animals. My work shifts are on Wednesdays and Fridays and span from 8am-2pm, so I have plenty of availability. I will go to classes in the fall, and will update when I have that schedule. I have a fenced in yard that my two dogs love. There is a small pond, local birds love to play in it. Sometimes our neighbor's cats come over and sunbathe in the soil. I have plenty of toys for the dogs, and am very affectionate with animals, but if an animal is nervous because I'm new to them, not to worry, I will give them space and time to adjust. Strangers are scary, and they have every right to be skeptical.

About: I have always grown up around all types of animals. I am capable of giving medication, going on walks, playing, bathing, feeding and help in training in basic skills such as sitting, shanking hands,etc. Currently working part time working with service animals as a kennel tech soon to be starting dog training internship. As of right now, my hours are completely open and flexible. If I do have to go anywhere I always try to make it pet friendly so I may bring a companion along so they do not feel abandoned. However, if I am not able to bring a pet along I try to make the trip as quick as possible. There is usually always someone at home with the pets, If they ever have to be alone it is only for about an hour and a half for a doctors/ Therapy appointment. I have a loving 3 bedroom home with more then enough space to house your pet. The home offers a large back yard for the dogs to run and play. There are several dog parks and parks with in walking distance.

About: I've taken care for dogs, cats, pigs, lambs and more, I have experience with dogs that can weigh up to 300 lbs like the one I own. Dog care is my full time occupation as long with other side hustles if schedule allows. Your dogs needs comes first whether they make a or mess or need a combing. My back yard is fenced, my big dog is friendly (your dog might be scared of them) so I won't really have them in the same room, as well as a park close by for walking.

About: I have had dogs most of my life. Since I was 12 I have been bathing feeding walking eating walking and caring for dogs. 6 years ago I started reading and learning about cats after I found a kitten close to death. I now have rescued 5 cats and have fostered many others. We have just lost our 2 dogs, But I am great with dogs as well. I genuinely believe that all pets deserve the best care and a chance at living their best life.More than anything I appreciate owners that treat their pets like family 😁🐈🐕🥰 I'm available most days and my schedule is pretty open because I because I work part time And make my own schedule. I can be available in about 24 hours and I am willing to make time for any pets that need me. I have a small fenced yard, but my home is more cat friendly. I have several towers, automatic toys and lasers, wands, and scratchers for my cats. I think pets need stimulation and I think play time is pivotal to their happiness and bonding.
