About: Together, Julian and I have a long history of taking care of pets. I've taken care of dogs (of all sizes) since I was very young, as well as Cats. My family has always owned large breeds (Golden Retrievers, Labradors, Great Pyrenees', etc.) but I also have experience with medium and small sized dogs. Julians family has also had dogs his whole life, and he has played a care-taker role both for his parents, and for our 4 year old Chihuahua mix named Theo. Julian and I both have experience with dog walking, and giving medication as well. My childhood Golden Retriever had several health issues in the past (allergies, skin issues, special diet, etc.) so I have been used to giving many different kinds of medications for many years. Your dog will be safe with us, and treated/loved like they are one of our own! Both of our schedules are very flexible and open to meet your pet care needs. We typically take care of most visits together. We both have open availability during the upcoming months, perfect time to book with us for your upcoming vacations and travels. Please see our calendar for further availability. If you have any specific questions, feel free to reach out to us. We have a small dog and an older cat at home that are super friendly. We have a big fenced yard, a nice walking path near our home, and lots of toys. Creating trust with your pet is our number one priority! We'd be happy to play outside, play inside, and do whatever we can to make your pet feel happy and comfortable! We'd also be happy to discuss your pet's needs before walking or dropping in for a visit.

About: I have some vet school experience. I have taken care of new born puppies up to senior dogs. I have volunteered in animal shelters for years. I have two animals, 1 cat and 1 dog. Both are rescues and very loving and friendly with other animals. I will slowly interduce your animals to mine if you choice to have me sit them. I walk my dog. Let him outside while watching him on the lead (he likes to lay in the sun). The cat has his litter box and tons of toys (as does the dog). They are both very spoiled.
15. Fama B.
“Greetings! I am one of Fama’s volunteer coordinators over at our shelter. I know she has volunteered for a variety of shelters not just ours. Essentially she does what she would do on this app, but for free for the animals of our community. She comes into contact with a variety of animals at our shelter, but mainly cats and dogs. Definitely a lot of seniors and special ed dogs. Unfortunately, we tend to get a lot of those. Regardless, she is phenomenal with the animals. As hard as it can be, she does her best to make them feel at home, and she always makes them feel included. If she bring treats, everybody treats that day. She is overall a blessing to have at the shelter. She is also really good at medicine administration. We like to say that she has the magical touch because whenever anybody is having a hard time getting an animal to take their medicine we always call her to help whether it’s oral administration or an injection administration. She has always been good at that. It’s like a talent of hers. She is also really good at getting things done in an appropriate timely manner as well as being efficient while doing so. She has been doing this for a long time, so I never had to worry about her, not knowing how to do certain things.”

“Tenía planeado viajar de Chicago a New York. Conocí a Stephanie buscando a alguien que cuidara de mi perrita por 4 días y fue la mejor decisión. Mi perrita la amo, cuido muy bien de ella y estaba feliz! No se arrepentirán de que ella les cuide su mascota 🤍”

20. Brian B.
“I am Brian’s younger sister. He does really well with animals, and definitely enjoys spending time with them. We took in a feral cat (Luna) we rescued as a kitten about four years ago, and he was the primary caretaker. Since she has moved out of our house to live with our older sibling, the house has been pet free. Ever since he has been pet sitting mostly dogs from our friends and family friends since Luna could not handle that before. From large energetic poodles, to small anxiety ridden cats he does well with pets, and is well accustomed to caring for them.”
