About: I've grown up with all types of pets my whole life. All sizes and uniquenesses! I also currently work at a pet shop where we take care of puppies, kittens, and other animals. From small animals and scaled friends to large dogs, I can provide quality care for your precious pet! I am a full-time student and I work full-time throughout the week so my schedule is pretty set, but I am willingly (and usually able) to do what I can to fit clients into that schedule. My typical availability looks like: Sunday: All Day Monday - Thursday: 6am-8am or 7:30pm-9pm Friday & Saturday: All Day Let me know in advance what days/times you need and we can work something out! I strive to respect my clients' and their pets' boundaries while taking care of them in their home. Otherwise, I am moderately active, so I have no problem playing with the fur-babies and taking/letting them outside!

“David was a professional from beginning to end. Connected beautifully with my dog, was on time, and did everything needed for Jasmine’s we’ll being. Will definitely be hiring him again at some point.”

Dog walks early mornings till 4 pm, Boarding whatever time works for both of us. Pet care is daily in my life, from walking Storm 3 times a day to playing fetch in the backyard understand how important pet care is, and I look forward to making your pet happy like my own I treat every dog like their my own dog Storm. They've got to be treated like their family and that's what I always do with dogs I meet.

About: I have a great, rambunctious 6-year-old Golden Retriever named Cobie, and previously had another wonderful, loving Golden Retriever named Max, who we cared for well into his old age--17! I have taken care of dogs for friends and family all throughout my life, and always shower them with all the love in the world! I am currently in graduate school, but I am available for late afternoons or evenings and nights during the week, and anytime during the weekend! I always ensure safety of the dog and the home, whether that be crates, blocking off parts of the house, and following set rules and routines. Just as important is love and gentleness, doing my best to build a dog's trust.

About: What sets me apart is my practical, real-world experience handling a wide variety of animal needs and environments. Working behind the scenes in a veterinary clinic taught me how to keep pet spaces clean and safe, while my time on a goat farm gave me the hands-on confidence to administer injections. Combined with giving oral medications to my own cat and senior dog, I am uniquely equipped to care for animals with specific health routines. Because I offer care exclusively in your home, I specialize in keeping independent pets safe, happy, and relaxed right in their own familiar surroundings. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine. Sunday through Thursday, I am available for overnight house sitting in your home. Please note that from Tuesday to Thursday, I do leave for a 6-hour work shift during the day, making me a perfect match for independent pets who don't mind some alone time. I utilize my mornings, late afternoons, and evenings on those days for dedicated care, walks, and drop-ins. On Fridays and Saturdays, I am available strictly for daytime walks and drop-in visits, as I stay out of town those nights. I provide pet care exclusively inside the client's home, keeping your pets safe and comfortable in their own familiar environment. When house sitting or dropping in, my priority is maintaining their exact daily routine. Thanks to my clinic helper and farm background, I am completely confident following complex instructions, keeping spaces clean, and administering oral medications or injections. You will receive regular updates, and you can rest assured your home and pets are cared for with a professional eye.

I am available all weekends for boarding/sitting/drop ins as I work full time during the week but I can also do drop-ins in the evening if needed Monday-Friday I have 1 fur baby of my own. She gets along great with other dogs/animals. I have a crate if you require/prefer that in certain situations.

About: I’ve spent the last 9 months caring for pets and homes while traveling around the country, completing extended house and pet sits through other platforms.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. I’ve lived with many Australian shepherds-sometimes 1, sometimes 2, sometimes 3. Dogs at my house are allowed on the furniture with free run of my ranch house-except for the kitchen if they’re counter surfers! I am training in animal reiki and would love the opportunity to work with your dog with this (only with permission). I have a list of hikes that I love to do-some very short and easy, others longer and more challenging that can be added if interested. I’m retired and flexible for daytime requests! I’m retired with plenty of energy to help out! I love walking and being outside so I’m happy to travel and give your pup some attention. I have a large fenced in yard and a dog door to allow for freedom to come and go as dogs need if agreed upon. Otherwise, the door can be closed and dogs can be taken out only with supervision. The yard is large enough to throw a ball for fetch, and there is plenty of shade with large cedar, magnolia, oak, beech, pines, and larch trees. In nice weather I like to sit outside on my patio with the dogs.

Each client need is different: I have crates and gates in my home if needed, dog beds galore, a toy chest, 6 foot fenced yard, wooded trails/nature preserve across the street, 2 chicken coops and a netted chicken area. Purified water is always available. Homemade dog treats are made fresh (client permitting) and dog bed linens are sanitized for each sit.

In a client's home I will be there as required by the client and am very detail oriented. Every pet is cared for as if it is my own.

“Thea was absolutely wonderful! Great communication, wonderful with the pups, kind, tidy and responsible, I can't say enough good things! I can't recommend her enough and will be calling on her first as I need an in-home sitter going forward.”
