“Marina was fantastic with Jasper, and very helpful and willing to walk him at the last minute. We brought Jasper home on a weekend and had not yet set up services with a regular dog, so it was a bit of an emergency and Marina was very understanding and warm with him! From the pictures she sent each day, he looked like he was having a great time with her. Jasper would love to spend time with Marina again, anytime!”
About: I’ve been caring for animals my entire life—starting with the family dogs, cats, birds, and hamsters I grew up with. Over the past 20 years, I’ve provided trusted pet care for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and energy levels, as well as cats with all kinds of personalities. I’ve raised two dogs of my own and currently live with a much-loved cat. What sets me apart is my calm, patient approach and deep understanding of animal behavior. Whether it’s a senior dog needing extra support, a shy cat who takes time to warm up, or a high-energy pup who needs structure and play, I adapt to each pet’s unique needs. I’m also experienced with basic puppy training and feel comfortable administering medication when needed. I treat every pet like family—with plenty of love, consistency, and attention to detail—because I know how much they mean to you. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I plan my schedule around the needs of the pets I care for—whether it’s daily walks, feeding schedules, playtime, or simply keeping them company. I’m organized, flexible, and committed to giving each pet the time and attention they deserve. Caring for animals isn’t something I squeeze in—it’s something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize every day. --- Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, their safety and comfort come first. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, and any special needs to ensure a smooth, low-stress experience. In your home, I respect your space, follow all instructions carefully, and keep you updated with regular check-ins and photos. If pets are in my home, they’ll enjoy a calm, pet-friendly environment where they’re never left alone for long and always treated like part of the family. --- ### My Pet Care Expertise My life has always been deeply intertwined with animals. From chattering birds and curious hamsters to graceful fish, independent cats, and loyal dogs of all sizes, I've had the joy of growing up with a diverse range of beloved family pets. This lifelong immersion in animal companionship, including personally owning both small and large dogs alongside my current cat, has given me invaluable insight into their unique personalities and needs. Today, my passion for pets continues through the routine care I provide for our **neighbors' and friends' dogs and cats**. This hands-on, consistent experience means I'm adept at maintaining routines, understanding different temperaments, and ensuring every furry guest feels safe, comfortable, and truly loved in a family environment. You can trust that your pet's well-being is my absolute priority. ---
“Daniel has been great with taking our dog for her daily walks. He gives her the chance to take her time and explore and then does some enrichment activities with her when they get back. He is always on time and very communicative.”
“Merrill was absolutely amazing! Booked her last minute and she was super responsive and reliable! She was so good with my older dog Otis! He came back happy and exhausted from their thorough walk which I was so appreciative of.”
“Sammi is very kind and takes great care of our little dog. Her love of animals really shows. She responds quickly to communications and provides helpful feedback after each walk.”
About: I've taken care of dogs for around 7 years as I've walked, played, or house-sat my own dog and my neighbors dogs and had a blast doing it. I am available most late mornings and afternoons, weekends are hard because I have soccer reffing for the whole day each day and it would be hard to squeeze a dog walk in. I can easily settle dogs down, crate dogs, and make them feel relaxed without stress when they sense danger or something is off. I am able to control them no matter the strength they have.
“Isabelle walks my goldendoodle furchild every day and she’s such an important part of Maya’s life. To start, she’s super communicative and reliable, which makes it really easy to plan and coordinate walks and dogcare with her. She was also great about learning what behaviors we try to reinforce, Maya’s habits and routines and what Maya eats, which gives me the warm and fuzzies that as a parent, aunt Isabelle is staying consistent with dad’s rules. Isabelle is so great with dogs and has good judgment generally; seeing how she interacts with Maya and hearing her describe how Maya did on a given walk, I trust her implicitly. Lately she’s been really helpful in figuring out fun new walking routes or destinations that cater to Maya’s interests and mood and energy level. Yep Isabelle is a wonderful dog “auntie” and just a delightful human being. I don’t know what her advertised rates are on here, but you should pay them and then some. Isabelle, get after it girl. Charge people what you’re worth! ?”
“Our dog Winnie loves going on walks with Aislyn! Aislyn is happy to let her wander and sniff to her heart’s delight, which really helps tire her out in time for some lazy afternoon naps.”
“Katherine will take such great care of your pup!! You can tell she really loves dogs and goes above and beyond to make sure they are well taken care of. Very communicative and reliable. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve had pets my entire life. Currently I have 4 cats and a golden retriever! I have been dog sitting and house sitting for my neighbors for years now and am wanting to do it more often! I have taken care of dogs ranging from 8 weeks to 12 years old and cats of all ages. I graduated from James Madison University this past June and I am wanting to fill my days off with fun spending time with your pets! I’ve taken care of many pets with various needs ranging from needing medication, specific sleep and walk schedules, crates, etc. I am willing to do whatever is needed for your pets!
“I've gone to Sofia twice now to walk my energetic working dog and each time has been a joy! Finding a walker for the middle of the day can be difficult, but Sofia has been there each time I needed her. Jace is always happier on days she comes by!”
About: I’ve worked as a pet care associate compassionately handling and ensuring the health and welfare of the dogs. I was taught the understanding of dog behavior and proper care while working. As part of my job I also gained experience in dog walking and sitting. I’ve pet-sat neighbors dogs and pets as well. Currently pet care fits well into my daily schedule as I am finishing up school. My work is asynchronous leaving me very flexible with time. I ensure the safety and well-being of pets by following the guidelines provided and giving them lots of love throughout the time I spend with them.
About: Sometimes, I have taken care of the pet of friends and family. I give them food, play with a ball, take them for a walk. Part-time job so I'm available to work on weekends at any time. I could also on Fridays at night. . If you're going to travel on the weekend and you can't take your pet, I can take care of it. I can take them for a walk around the neighborhood, or play at the client's house with their pet. Whatever the client prefers or how it is best for the customer.
