Ariel is AMAZING!!! She did such a good job with my cat, who has special needs and is a senior. I felt so comfortable with leaving my cat and know Ariel will take good care of her. Will defiantly contact her again when I go on trips.

Jill was amazing with Billy. He did show some attitude but she handled it with grace. We knew we had nothing to worry about. Would highly recommend her.

About: I have had family dogs my whole life-dogs of all ages and breeds. I have adopted all my dogs as young puppies, and trained them my own. I have also worked at a doggy daycare/boarding facility in Sioux Falls, SD, and currently work at a grooming salon/doggy daycare here in Aberdeen! I absolutely love meeting new pets and seeing the different personalities. Many friends and families have also relied on me to care for their pets. I currently have 2 dogs (Nala and Kimmy), who absolutely LOVE everyone. My favorite thing about pet sitting is getting re-occurring dogs-being able to watch them grow and learn, and how much more comfortable they get each time they come over. ❤️ We just moved back to Aberdeen a few months ago. ❗️I do currently work full-time out of the home, but I am open for boarding and house-sitting during the week. I will also provide dog walking and drop-in visits on weekends! I will make sure you pets get plenty of exercise, going for walks, dog parks (if allowed), and lots of play and enrichment time! They definitely will not lack attention; they’ll get plenty of cuddles, treats, and love.

About: Loving, Structured, & Safe Care — Dogs Are Never Left Alone Hi! We’re Felicia & Larry, and caring for dogs is part of our everyday life—not just a service. With a background in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), we bring a calm, structured, and positive approach to every dog we care for. That means we understand behavior, read body language, and help dogs feel safe, confident, and comfortable—whether they’re energetic puppies or older dogs who need a slower pace. What your dog’s stay looks like: Supervised care all day (we both work from home) Regular walks, playtime, and attention A calm, structured environment tailored to your dog Very little time left alone (only short errands) We treat every dog like part of our family. We follow your pet’s routine closely—feeding, walks, crate use, and any special instructions—so they feel right at home. Safety is our top priority: We introduce dogs slowly, supervise all interactions, and pay close attention to comfort levels at all times. 📸 You’ll also get regular updates and photos so you always know how your dog is doing. Whether your dog needs structure, patience, or just lots of love - we’ve got you covered. I work from home and my fiancé is home as well, so dogs are rarely left alone. Pet care is built into our daily routine, with regular walks, playtime, and supervision. Any time away is limited to short school pick-ups or errands, and we make sure dogs are safe and settled before leaving. Safety is always our priority. We introduce dogs slowly, supervise all interactions, and pay close attention to behavior and comfort levels. We follow each pet’s routine closely — including feeding, walks, crate use, and any special instructions — to help them feel secure. Whether in our home or yours, we provide dependable care and regular updates.

Taylor is quick to respond and accommodating. Our dog warmed right up to her. She arrived on time and sent pictures for us while we were away.

Amber did a fabulous job at taking care of my three older cats, including one who needed frequent medication to prevent seizures. Her communication was great. She was flexible even when a scheduling conflict occurred. She followed the care instructions very well, and was very patient and caring with the cats. I'd absolutely recommend her as a pet sitter!

Jill was extremely friendly and the pups loved her. It was great that she could come out and do a meet and greet with the dogs at last minute.

Angela was absolutely amazing with my two cats! She did 3 drop-in visits a day, each for 30 minutes, and went above and beyond during every visit. I really appreciated how attentive and caring she was, she took the time to send me lots of pictures and very detailed report notes after each visit, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She kept me updated on everything, from how much they were eating to their behavior and playtime. It was clear from the updates that she took her time to engage with them, not just to feed and clean up, but also to make sure they were comfortable and happy. Both of my girls warmed up to her quickly, and that says a lot, they can be shy with new people. I would absolutely recommend Angela to anyone looking for a responsible, communicative, and genuinely caring pet sitter. I’ll definitely be booking her again!
