About: Animals are the biggest source of joy in my life. I have been caring for animals since I was a child, beginning with large animals of all kinds and needs on my family's ranch. As soon as I entered high school I began volunteering at local clinics and shelters. I have been a professional in the veterinary medicine/shelter care industry since I was 17. I have been a veterinary technician for years and have an all encompassing experience history, including cats, dogs of all sizes, small animals (rats, hamsters, guinea pigs, etc), reptiles, cattle, horses, sheep, pigs, seniors, babies, and special needs pets. Animals have always been and will always will be one of my greatest loves and passions in life. I would love to get to know yours and provide them with exceptional love and care when you need it. I am currently working in specialized home care full time, so I have fully open availability to give your pets all the care and attention they need! I am skilled and experienced with any and all pet needs. I am trained in fear-free training techniques and industry standard safety protocols. I can supervise interaction, work with crate training animals, and keep pets and their feeding/walking/medication schedules separate if need be. I am fully capable of handling most medical needs your pet may have.

11. Rachel K.
“Rachel found that Baxter was so startled and worried that he wouldn’t eat or allow her to get close enough to put his leash on to take him out for a potty break. She did everything she could do, but Baxter wasn’t having it. Thanks, Rachel, for trying to hard and caring about him. He was fine when we got home.”

15. Delayna M.
About: I have always been surrounded by dogs my entire life, so taking care of them comes very naturally to me, as I feel the most authentically myself when I am with animals. I trained my two golden retrievers, one of which is fourteen now, and they have taught me tremendous patience, and also what it means to embrace all of the mundane moments of life. I have a lot of experience taking care of dogs and have taken care of a multitude of breeds including but not limited to: Beagle-Pug mix, Bichon frise, German Shepherd, Golden Retriever, Pitbull Mix, Border Collie, Labrador Retriever, and Short-Haired Pointer. I have also taken care of a pack of four dogs, so several dogs is not a problem for me. I have experience in diffusing a fight between two dogs as well, which I dealt with quickly and responsibly, ensuring the safety and well-being of the dogs above all else. Taking care of senior dogs also is not a problem for me, as I have extensive experience with them, and understand completely the extra care that is required when we have an old companion at our side. I am a sophomore doing online classes in college right now, so my schedule is very flexible, and I can stay overnight for as many nights as needed. I make sure that I am constantly aware of how comfortable the pets I am caring for are, because that is what is most important to me. I am comfortable with any level of affection as well such as licking or jumping, because I know some dogs just tend to get excited. I always like to have a conversation with the owner as well about their pets habits, and anything I should be aware of for my stay / visits.
16. Sally J.
About: I've cared for animals of all types since I was a small child, having owned many dogs and cats growing up. I also operated an at home boarding service for six years and consistently boarded up to four dogs at a time in my home. I have cared for dogs and cats from babies to seniors. Every animal is unique and I take pride in learning how to best connect with each one so they feel safe with me until their loved ones return. I have a rotating schedule, however, I am available four days a week for drop-ins and/or walks. Days off are flexible for morning, afternoon, or evening visits. Or even multiple times a day! I am always cautious when entering a pets home, and I never open the door to take them on a walk until the leash is securely attached!
17. Kassondra S.
“Kassondra was a wonderful pet sitter! She communicated very effectively, provided excellent care to my little guy and followed his schedule exactly. He was a happy little guy when we got home! It was great to find Kassondra and recommend her highly!!”
18. Mikayla M.
“Mikayla just started watching my brand new puppy and everything is going great!! She did a great job helping house train and my puppy had a great time, she was very tired out and content when I got home! ”
19. Sheridan H.
About: I grew up in a home full of animals, and from an early age, I developed a deep, unwavering bond with them. It feels unnatural to walk past any animal without pausing to say hello. Currently, my parents are proud companions to seven wonderful animals—five dogs and two cats. At my own home, I share my life with three sweet kitties, one of whom is the biggest, most affectionate "lover boy" you can imagine. He loves his toys almost as much as his food, and his personality is truly one of a kind. I believe I share a special connection with every animal I meet. I’m deeply attuned to their individual needs and boundaries, understanding that each pet has its own way of communicating. I approach them with respect and a quiet understanding, knowing that true connection is built on trust and the ability to sense when it’s time to interact. I’m looking for a hobby during the morning/early afternoon doing something I genuinely love, without having to heart not being able to rescue all the pets from the shelter I knew this would be the best alternative. Supervision, Said routine's. Designated areas for sleep/eat/restroom. Monthly bathing, and backed research on the safest non-toxic eating bowl material, food, snacks and not limited to etc.
20. Ashley V.
“Ashley is the most loving and responsible pet owner that I know. She goes over and beyond for all of her animals and her children. She’s highly experienced in areas of expertise that Hass to do with health of the animal, and the care of the animal. She has taken care of My babys multiple times, and they have always loved going back to their aunt Ashley’s house . I would highly recommend her because she is beyond trustworthy and extremely caring.. she will take care of your babies like they are her own. You will not be disappointed!”
