“I was looking for a place to kennel my dog for 4 days. I had never done that before so I was worried. Scott was recommended to me by a trusted friend, who also has Scott watch her pup. First time meeting him and Brinley, things went really well. Lily had her first full day with him, I received updated pictures throughout the day and when I went to pick her up, she passed out in the car on the way home. Fast forward to a week later, Lily had her 2nd full day there. She could hardly keep her excitement in check when I pulled into the driveway. As soon as I opened the door, she charged up to the front to meet Scott. She absolutely LOVES going there. I have full confidence she'll be taken care of the 4 days, 3 nights she'll be there!”
“Melanie and family were so friendly that my dogs—a 4- and a 12- year-old Havanese—relaxed immediately. Melanie met us in the yard and the dogs trotted away with her without looking back. The dogs were with her for 6 hours and she sent multiple photos and status updates. We would definitely ask Melanie to watch our dogs again!”
“We were so lucky to find Sherilynn to care for my Bailey! I am a nightshift nurse and she kept Bailey overnight 12-13 hours. Bailey looked forward to her stay and playing with Sherilynn’s dogs in the big fenced in yard:) Great communication and would send pictures that would help me get through being away from her. She treats your dog like her own!”
“Megan had a great time at Jessica’s. It was Megan’s first daycare experience and she didn’t even hesitate going in. Megan came home exhausted, which made for a nice relaxing evening. We will definitely be booking with Jessica again.”
“Heather has been taking care of my pup, Junie for a few weeks. Between her and her two kids, they make sure my girl is well cared for. I never worry about Junie when she is with Heather. Heather even takes her for walks of an evening and drops her off. Heather truly goes above and beyond for my girl! Highly recommend her.”
“Jen was amazing!! She accepted our last minute request and was super flexible! She took great care of our senior pup with special needs. He had a great time and was happy and worn out at pick up!!”
“My husband and I are first time dog parents and we were very nervous when dropping of our puppy for the first time, but Samantha was extremely helpful and walked us through the process. We take our puppy to Samantha 3 days a a week and since the first visit, we have seen a huge improvement in our puppy’s behavior and social skills. Samantha takes the time to work on training and socialization. She gives updates and photo’s throughout the day so we always know our puppy is happy and doing well. Any time we have had a special request, Samantha has been very helpful and flexible. We love taking our dogs puppy here and would highly recommend it!”
“Samantha was absolutely wonderful. It was easy to set up - our first time using rover. Communication was prompt - she was so pleasant and we felt very comfortable with our dog staying at her house. Can't say enough - she was great, and we would love to have more bookings with her.”
“I loved all the pictures of Rex throughout the day. They really made me feel that Rex was being well cared for. I loved seeing that he was able to relax in his surroundings and hang out with friends.”

I am committed to taking care of your pets like they’re my own, and I’m excited to provide lots of love and fun!

We have pet gates throughout the home, extra kennels if needed, and a fenced in yard. We are also comfortable giving medication orally or via injection if needed.
“Jill & her family are awesome!! They treated Benji as if he was their own! We are nervous dog parents sending our pooch to just anyone, Jill eased our minds with a lovely meet & greet, updates throughout the day and filled us in on how Benji was at pick up time :) Would definitely recommend Jill!”
About: I have had a dog most of my life until recently. I grew up with a wonderful Bichon named Brody. Brody was my best friend growing up and lived to about 18 years old! My husband and I got together in 2008 and a year later we both decided we wanted to get our first dog together. His name was Tank. To keep Tank young we got him a friend in 2012, Miles. Tank and Miles were our fur babies as we didnt have children at the time. Both of our guys had their share of illnesses. Tank required allergy injections for a few years. Tank eventually was diagnosed with prostate cancer which we did chemo for 2 years with him. Miles also started to have his own health issues. He was diagnosed with Cushings early on, diagnosed with diabetes which we then were administering insulin twice a day for, and then we discovered he had a tumor in his chest. We loved and cared for these guys through it all. Doing EVERYTHING we could for both of them. Visits to ISU, Blue Pearl, multiple local clinics. We gave them the best life we could. I think just saying that I love animals isnt enough. They are family to me and mean so much more. I care for all animals as they are my own. My husband and I provided intense care for our guys until it was time to say goodbye for now. I miss our guys. I would love to help care for others fur babies as I would treat them as my own, giving them the best care possible and the love they deserve. I currently work remote full time from my home and have decent flexibility in my daily work schedule to meet the needs of my clients. I have a fenced in yard. No other animals at this time. We do have a 4 year old child who is great with animals and always has been. Dog park nearby. Walking paths nearby/great neighborhood for walking outside.
About: I’m very attentive to details and love all fur babies. I believe in keeping animals on regular schedules for feeding and exercise. Your dog will be well loved and cared for at my house! I live on a farm with equines, so my schedule is built around their feeding and exercise, which means that I’m home most of the time. My dog (and yours) is inside the house, except when outside in the fenced area or on a leash while on a walk around our property each evening. Millie is our very active senior dog who is less than 20 pounds. She lost her older buddy a few years ago and would love a friend to hang out with. We have a very large fenced yard for them to play in, but they will be inside unless they want to play outside.
About: Let me help you with your pet sitting needs and you can help with my fur baby fever! I’ve been around dogs my entire life! As a child we bred and raised cocker spaniels . Since I moved out and have been on my own I have always had at least 1 dog and cat. Currently have a 3 year old shepherd retriever mix that is my baby and our senior cat. My husband works from home and I’m home during the summer full time. Summer care also includes more walks and or backyard play time. During the school year morning, lunch, and late afternoon potty breaks. Someone to keep company in the home office. Evening time with walks! We have a large fenced in backyard great neighborhood for walks and our dog is always excited for company! Boarding care - outdoor time will be morning, lunch, and late afternoon potty breaks. Someone to keep company in the home office. Evening time is extra play time with the kids and for walks!

Hayley & Zach K.
“I cannot recommend Hayley highly enough! She took care of my dogs while I was away, and I was absolutely blown away by the level of care, attention, and love she gave them. From the moment we met, it was clear that Hayley has a genuine passion for animals. She was incredibly responsible, communicative, and thoughtful throughout the entire time. My dogs were not only well-fed and exercised, but they were also happy and relaxed when I returned- something that speaks volumes about the comfort and trust they felt with her. Hayley went above and beyond, sending me regular updates and photos that gave me peace of mind while I was away. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pets like family, Hayley is the one. I’m so grateful to have found her and will absolutely be reaching out again the next time I need a dog sitter!”
