About: I'm a stay-at-home parent with a flexible schedule and a love for dogs (and cats and horses and so on😸). I offer dependable dog walks and daily check-ins to help keep your pup happy and cared for while you're away. I'm professional, experienced, and always focused on providing safe, attentive care. Since my kids sometimes join me on walks, I ask that your dog is comfortable around children and strollers. Whether it's a daily stroll or a quick drop-in, you can count on me for reliable, thoughtful pet care. I can administer medication, drive to and from the park, and give a good brushing if needed. I am available most days, and can work around anyone's schedule. Even on little league days, you can count on a drop in or a quick stroll! I offer rides too and from the park or my own fenced in yard, I will ALWAYS keep your dog on a lead and return them to their crate if need be.
About: I have owned 5 dogs, 2 cats and 10 chickens over the past 40 years and provide service in Naples, FL, Marco Island and Bonita Springs. I am available most days in Naples FL, but very flexible depending on your needs. Do not hesitate to call me, I can give your pup the time and love he deserves. I would prefer to come to your home, only because my home is not fenced in, but could keep the dog on a leash at all times outside

“Very thankful that Jessica and Chris were available on short notice. They spent a good amount of time with my pup and provided some cute pictures! Definitely recommend”

About: I've taken care of almost every kind of animal from kid till present day. I've had family friends ask me to care for their pets while they have been away. Neighbors and other family have relied on my assistance. My partner and I are working on growing a business from the ground up and working on acquiring more experience in the field of animal care. I'm very flexible at work so I can do any time, any day and it wouldn't bother me. Just send us a message and contact for anything, throughout the day! I'd like to keep a sharp eye on the pets I care for. As in treating them as if they are my own pets. Because, I could imagine if I was in there shoes if I had caused injury or lost a client's pet. How much pain that would cause. If I'm on the job of caring for a pet. That furbaby is my upmost responsibility. Dog walks when they want? Fed on time? Medication on a timely schedule? All a solid part of a daily routine with any furbaby. All eyes are on our pets and their health needs and exercise needs.
“Melissa was extremely professional, responded quickly and came through in a pinch. She went above and beyond to help me out with my dog and ai would use her again in a heartbeat. Unfortunately, my work circumstances changed so what I thought would be an on-going service with her turned out to only be needed once. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again!”

About: I grew up in a household with many pets of all kinds, I’ve volunteered at an animal shelter, worked in a pet store, and even worked with some exotic animals too. I’m comfortable around animals and I work hard to insure they feel safe and active with me. I am able to read a pet’s body language and communicate well both verbally and nonverbally. Every animal is different and has their own unique personality, and it’s a joy and reward to get to know each one. I have a flexible schedule and have experience long term housesitting (up to a month at a time). I am self-employed, so my schedule is quite flexible to accommodate your pets usual routines! I will generally be out and about at different times throughout the day, depending on errands and work. I will always keep you posted if I’ll be gone for more than a few hours at a time!

I have a diverse range of experience with all ages and breeds of dogs, and am confident that I can find a way to work well alongside your pup! Whether a quick check in for a game and a potty break, a 30 minute walk around town, or a few overnights so they never get lonely, I am excited to get to know your furry friends and give them the best day possible! I work part time at a dog daycare, where I am responsible for working with up to 45 dogs at once. This means that I will be able to give your pup corrections in the right way, as well as being able to handle any stubborn, stressed, or scared temperaments. I am comfortable with dogs of all ages and sizes, as well as high energy or low/stubborn energy. I am not grossed out easily, so any pups with stomach issues are in great hands. Feel free to ask about medication administration if needed as well! I am open to any and all questions, so please reach out so we can make a good match! I am currently a college student working part time, but with close visits I can fit in a walk or potty break almost anytime during the week.

I am happy to settle into any type of home, and with the appropriate fenced yard I can play, run, or even just watch from afar to meet your pups needs. I am able to administer medications upon request, and will make sure they are in bed on schedule if I am staying overnight. Overall I am simply happy to adjust and be flexible to meet any of your pups needs.

I also have experience working at a doggy daycare+kennel for nearly a year (Kessler Kennel Farms). I currently work with Happy Dogs at Home.

I am familiar with working in extreme weather conditions, administering oral medication, cleaning bodily fluids/ waste, heavy lifting/walking long distances, being attentive to detail/behaviors, working under stress, and caring for variety of dogs. I am also willing to transport pets in my car if that is a service you are interested in, as that is what I do for my job with Happy Dogs at Home!

I will be available after 2pm on Sundays, Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays as I have my other jobs, but depending on how many hours I end up working there this can be flexible. Tuesdays and Thursdays I am available anytime. I have a fenced yard my dog loves to play in. His daily schedule consists of being let out in the morning, eating breakfast, being let out again.

About: Newly moved to Simsbury! I grew up working closely with a rescue in the Carolinas, so I've spent pretty much my whole life caring for pups of all kinds! From the energetic puppies who trip over their own ears (and may not be totally potty trained yet) to the sassy seniors who just want to chill and may need a little extra TLC, I believe all of our furry friends deserve the same level of love and care. I know we all wish we could just stay home with them every day, but for those who can't I'm here to help! I'll take care of any ear scritches, walkies and treatos your pup needs to be happy and healthy when you get back! I work weekends, which leaves me free to care for your furry friends while you do your obligatory "9-5" during the school day. Just don't tell my dogs I'm petting your dogs! Whether we are hanging out in your back yard or walking to a local park, I'll make sure your pup gets all of the attention and care needed.
