About Jewel

1 Years Experience Caring For Dogs
Hi! My name is Jewel. Just a quick little about myself, I am 25 years old. I am currently looking for a job in pet sitting for one main reason, I LOVE dogs. I have always had a big heart for animals, especially dogs. I want to make a difference in a dog's life. If I could pick up every dog, puppy, cat, and kitten in the street and save them from being hurt, abused, and abandoned, I absolutely would. If you need a sitter who you can trust to take care of your puppy/dogs, cats/kittens and know they are being treated well while you are away, look no further. Our pets are like family members and that is how they will be treated. I have mostly pet sat for my family and friend's pets. Most of them have multiple pets. I do also have a puppy of my own which I treat like my son. I take care of him full time as of right now. I do not mind pet sitting any amount and any breed of cat or dog. Right now, I do not have an "at my house" pet sitting option open, due to my restroom being remodeled. As soon as it is finished and my house is prepped that option will open up, but as of right now I can only pet sit at the owner's house. Two main conditions I do have is for the pets not to be very aggressive, and to have all required shots. If your pets require a timely schedule or any special requirements, I do prefer you let me know as much as possible to better care for your pet. I will accurately abide by all rules you specify for your pet. If you have any questions, concerns, or just want to know more please, feel free to contact me via email or cell phone. If for some reason I cannot get to the phone please leave a voicemail and I promise I will get back to you as soon as possible. Hope to take care of your pets soon! Thank you!

About Sana

2 Years Experience Caring For Dogs
I have had many wonderful opportunities dog-sitting for a variety of different dogs! I enjoy meeting up with the owners beforehand to get the best understanding possible of the dog's personality as well as what he/she likes or dislikes in order for me to create the best stay possible! I enjoy walking dogs, as it also keeps me active with a fun companion, so I oftentimes walk dogs that I dog-sit three times a day. I am a very reliable person and have a very flexible schedule so I am able to take care of dogs the way owners would like to - making sure they aren't left alone and have someone to be with! I am a very fun-loving person, so I oftentimes play with the dog when I am around.

About Laura

17 Years Experience Caring For Dogs
Hi! I'm Laura. I'm a 32 year old professional who has gone back to school full time pursuing a degree in graphic design, and as a result, has switched to a PT work schedule. This allows me for some flexibility to help other pet parents with their pet care needs as needed! :)

I have had pets, mainly dogs, all of my life. Currently, I have two small, 13 lb. doggies, Hanzo and Rocco, who are my best friends in life and absolutely the most important things to me. I live in a very animal friendly home, where dogs are treated like family, and have full run of the house, couches, and beds.

My experience with pets has gone back as long as I can remember, and animals, especially dogs, hold a very special place in my heart.

In 2012, I co-founded an animal (dog) rescue nonprofit, that is still in existence today. In my experience there, I encountered many different animal temperaments, behaviors, ailments, and experience in treating and caring for them, and just helped strengthen my love and appreciation for all things Dog. Due to my experience, I think I am a great pet parent and look forward to caring for your little ones while you are away. :)

About Robertas

Hey. My name is Robertas. I have bachelor in Hospitality Management. I relate pets care to customer service and taking care of people. Dogs are like pets sometimes better and more friendly. During my experiences guests loved me, so the same care i can give to Your dog :)))))))))) Plus I am 26 years old.. I am from Eastern Europe (Lithuania). I love animals and when i visit my friends or parents friends, all dogs sit by me or sleep. My brother has black home rabbit and every time I have visited brother with wife, this rabbit lick me with his tongue and stay by me.

My parents didnt let me have any animals cause our apartment in home country is pretty small. But your dog will be taking care of. I will do everything what You as owner will say and hopefully it will become regular thing. I can do anything for You.

If you want just feed dog while you are at work and do nothing - i can do. If you want walks - i can do. Just let me know. I am new in this but i promise - you wont be dissapointed.

But what dogs i dont want.... - the ones who are very aggresive and not trained.

This was our second time having Amber take care of our fur babies. Our dog loves her! Once again, Amber did an excellent job and we highly recommend her!
Amber was amazing!!! Trustworthy. Flexible. Quick to respond. Wonderful with my dog. She also communicated constantly about how Copper was doing and sent pictures. I would highly recommend her - especially on a short notice! Overall just a wonderful and nice person. For someone who is new to the area it is nice to know you can trust a dog sitter to come to your place and take care of your dog.

Amber was great and we would definitely ask her to watch our fur babies again. We have a dog and two cats, and Amber came to our house to take care of them. We met Amber a couple of days before we left so she could meet our pets. Our dog, Bailey, loved her right away! Amber asked a lot of questions about our pets' needs, so we knew we were leaving our pets in good hands. Amber sent us updates and photos while we were away and kept our house neat. Amber was a great sitter! Thank you!

Amber was great. She was able to help, even though I booked last minute.
Amber was great, she answers all of my many questions, she was quick to respond, she arrived on time, and she was really sweet and understanding of my dog's needs. I would recommend her as a great pet sitter.

About Jennifer

3 Years Experience Caring For Dogs
Hi there! Thanks for checking me out, you won't regret it. :)

My name's Jennifer, and though I personally have a kitty, I am a huge lover of dogs.

I was a previous volunteer with the NYC Animal Care & Control with the dogs, so I know all about dog behavior, proper walking techniques, etc.

I don't discriminate against any kind of dog (that means you, Bully mom and dads!). Big, small, yappy, quiet -- I will always take your advice first and foremost, and think logically about the activities your furry pal and I do together.

Long story short - I know that he/she is a part of your family, and I'd like you to rest assured I would treat him/her like they were part of mine! :o)

** NO BOARDING UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE!! **

~~~

A HUGE thank you to everyone I worked with in New York City, and I'm sorry to all my would-have-been clients! Enjoy the big apple for me as I live on down South!

About Larissa

13 Years Experience Caring For Dogs
Hello: I grew up with lots of animals and caring for them was apart of my every day life since i was 10. I have lots of experience with dogs,cats,lizards and even horses haha. My uncle is a veterinarian so i have acquired some knowledge from him just in case. I am a stay at home mom. I am currently home all day so your babies will have my attention all day long and will go on walks and lots of play time! I live in an apartment but it is a large complex with a dog park and lots of walking space and little hills they can play on. I will of course send photos and updates through out the day so you can have peace of mind. i always consider any animal that i care for as part of my family and they will be spoiled while they are here. right now i am barely starting but as soon as i can i will get certified in pet CPR. I hope you will consider me to care for your baby! Thanks for stopping by :) Shoot me a message, I can be very flexible and willing to work with your needs.
I have experience with diabetic dogs
Lots of senior dogs
Medication for dogs

About Keith

30 Years Experience Caring For Dogs
We LOVE dogs! If I come back in another life, I want to come back as a Gutschke dog. I have had at least one dog my entire life, and many times we have had more than one. Many rescue animals. German Shepards, Dobermans, Spaniels, Terriors, and all kinds of mixes. Dogs are my favorite people. Your pup will be treated like a family member. If in our house, we will keep your doggie engaged and entertained, and pampered better than most royalty. We play games, go on walks, give treats, and take care of their every need. If I come to you...same thing!!! We do maintain the pack leader mentality, though, so as to keep discipline.

We allow Bo, our pup, on the furniture, and your animal will be treated the same way...unless you say otherwise...then we will certainly adjust to your wishes. We value your input as to what at you want for your pooch, and will customize our program to your
We really look forward to meeting you and your pal!!!

About David and Jennifer

25 Years Experience Caring For Dogs
About this sitter:
Going away always make you feel like you have abandoned your babies and want the confidence that their care will be met. We have a very flexible schedule, multiple visits daily are not a problem. Providing daily updates and pictures help with your confidence and we will help make you feel at ease about your experience. We have pet sitting experience.


Why we love dog sitting:
All our life, we have a love for animals. We have cared for our own dogs and cats the last 25 years. We are aware of what foods to avoid and all our animals drink filtered water. We won't ignore constant scratching or other abnormal behavior and will address any concerns no matter how mundane it may be.

Meet our pets:
Nine cats.
One beautiful baby canine girl.

About our yard:
Entirely free of objects except a picnic table. Four large mature trees. Privacy fence but keep our own dog mostly indoors.

My experience administering medication:
Yes. Patience is a virtue.

It's ideal if your dog gets along with other dogs since we own one ourselves and they would be sharing space. Their bedding and blankets should be odor free, as well as, your dog should be freshly bathed. Unless your male is the sweetest, easy going, docile dog out there, we won't be accepting males that aren't well behaved. Do they mark their territory indoors? Do they get aggressive towards cats? Are they diggers or do they have a tendency to eat plants. Indicate what food intolerance and/or medications they may be on. Any breed is fine with us. We accept extra large dogs $10 added charge. Our boarding services are per 24 hour period. Doggie daycare is 9 hours or less. Extra charge will apply if it exceeds service.


Here's where we'll take our walks:
We prefer around the neighborhood with it's big mature trees.

Your dog's sleeping arrangement:
We have a closed in air conditioner/heater patio where most of our cats live so they will be separated from any cat unless your dog tolerates them. Our animals are allowed on the furniture so sleeping arrangements around here aren't a problem. We also have an extra large dog bed. If your dog needs a little more human touch, they can sleep with us. There's a large room we can keep them secure if we leave.

Time we'll spend with your dog:
All of our free time which is all day and all night. Would enjoy a couple walks around the neighborhood each day only when it's cool during the summer time, early morning and later evening. Your dog can have full run of the house as if they are our own, as long as they are well behaved.

Extra house-sitting service to be done by Jennifer:
I have plants and with this heat they need watering. Yes, of course, I can take care of yours. Check your mail, bring in trash or put out trash. Bring in newspapers. Adjusting lights or adjusting blinds.
