“Ben is reliable, trustworthy and an asset to Rover!!! We can count on him to take care of our fur babies when we can’t!!! Will definitely use him again, and refer him to our friends and family!!!”


“Kristen was great with Sona! She came a little early so she could meet with him and he took to her right away! My husband was here and helped her get him into tub. She was great with him, she talked to him soothingly while bathing him. She did a thorough job on him and even his big old jumbo ears! I would trust her with him again and I do recommend her as she IA very loving towards animals.”


“Everything was great, we couldn't be happier with her service. I don't know what we would do without her help, and she was so easy to work with, it was nice to know we had nothing to worry about while we were away from home. Thank you so much !!!!!!!!!!”


“Kristen was wonderful! She was patient and attentive to my pup. Normally I board my dog for work trips but he had a cough so I opted to have her come take care of him at home. This was entirely new for him and he took a minute to get used to her, and she was amazing working with him. She was diligent with his meds and feeding schedule. She communicated clearly and often. She tooks him for walks every day and posted pictures so I cough see my boy while I was away. I can't recommend her enough.”


About: Welcome to Pecor's Pups! My wife and I have a lifetime of experience caring for all sorts of animals. We love dogs, especially. I have a veterinary care background, as I used to be a vet tech. I also have a Zoology degree and am experienced with various different types of animals and the care thereof. We have an energetic - yet very gentle - Golden Retriever and a rambunctious Great Pyrenees mix so all dogs staying with us must get along with other dogs. We would be willing to separate our pups for periods of time to give your little guy/girl one-on-one time, if that is your preference. We do have the ability to block off areas of the home to separate (from my dogs, or if you have more than one dog and they need separation) if needed. We have a large fenced in yard that is treated monthly to prevent fleas in the area. They can get all the playtime they need! If you don't wish for that, though, then that is not a problem either. I have a very comfortable environment for any and all animals who stay with me, with several dog beds that are washed and sanitized after each stay (and in between often) as well as tons of puzzle toys and enrichment activities if they're interested in that. Otherwise, we will just cuddle and hang out! I will stay strict with any and all schedules (feeding, treats, play time, potty time, medicines, etc) that you provide, but if you don't have a specific schedule for your dog, then I will put them on my dogs' feeding, play, treat, and potty schedule (except for younger or older puppies that may need a little more accommodation in that department) I am very easy-going and easy to deal with. I will also send as many updates via text as you want, with photos and "report cards" of your little ones activities for the day. We also provide baths, nail trims and ear cleanings! Let me know what you may need during your stay with us! If you have any further questions about me or our home and/or our dog and the services we provide, do not hesitate to reach out. We own two businesses from home (Pecor's Pups and another business) so we have a lot of time to dedicate to your pet(s) and their needs! I have a fenced in yard and two floors (the downstairs is currently under partial construction to make Pecor's Pups even more accommodating and cozy!) I can separate pets if needed for whatever reason, and there will be a lot of space outside for pups to roam whilst also being completely contained in the safety of my backyard.

About: I grew up with an Aussie and as I got married I got a German Shepherd and yorkie. I grew up with with my sisters cats as well so I can also take care of cats. I also have experience with hamsters as well. By drop in’s and walking I get to play with fur babies for a little bit which I love since I can’t have a pet currently due to renting. I love getting to make sure your babies are loved on while you are away and need that extra care. I like to bring any of the furry friends I take care of a special treat during the drop in or walk.

About: I have two dogs, two cats, and two snake pets of my own. I have taken care of some of these animals for almost 10 years now. Through out the years I have taught some animals some tricks, played outside, and have given them the love and attention they need. I am a freshman in college and looking for a beneficial way to spend my free time; what better way to spend that than with animals? If you are in need for someone to care for your pet I would be more than happy to help! I am a very active person and can take ur pets on walks, keep them entertained or anything of that nature to keep them healthy. For senior pets, I stay at ease, have patience, and am very calm to their liking. I am extremely cautious with any and every animal I take care of to ensure their safety!

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the personalized care and attention I give to every pet. I treat each animal as if they were my own, taking time to understand their unique personalities, routines, and needs. I’ve had the joy of caring for a wide range of animals, not just cats and dogs, but also unique pets like ducks, turtles, and birds—so I’m comfortable and confident with all kinds of companions. I have experience with senior dogs and cats as well as puppies who need to be potty trained!

I maintain a calm environment with plenty of playtime, walks, and snuggles, as-well as my small chihuahua to keep them company. Depending on each pet’s personality and needs. I follow any feeding, medication, and sleep schedules provided by the owner, and I send regular updates with photos so pet parents can feel connected and reassured. In a client’s home, I do my best to maintain the pet’s normal routine, which helps reduce stress while their owner is away. I keep their space tidy, make sure they’re fed on schedule, walked or let out as needed, and given the attention and affection they’re used to.

About: I am currently pursuing my X-ray tech degree, and while in school, I work at a local bakery that offers me the flexibility to help care for your pets. I recently transitioned from the veterinary field, where I gained extensive experience handling medical needs for animals. With years of hands-on care for dogs, cats, and even horses, I’ve worked with pets of all ages—from energetic puppies to gentle seniors. I’m passionate about providing reliable, loving, and knowledgeable care, ensuring every pet gets the attention they deserve. I am currently working full time at a local bakery while pursuing my X-ray tech degree, with most of my classes online. I’m looking for a part-time job on my days off. My schedule can vary, but I typically know my availability about two weeks in advance. Having recently left the veterinary field, I bring years of hands-on experience and a strong medical background. I’m committed to making your time away less stressful by providing attentive care along with daily photo and video updates, so you can have peace of mind while you’re gone. I take pleasure in creating enrichment activities that suit each pet’s energy and interest. This could mean trips to the dog park, going for walks, engaging in a training session, or using treat-dispensing puzzles to keep their minds active and entertained.

“We have two cats and one very special pitbull. Courtney helped name our black cat toothless (best movie ever btw) Our pets are all rescues and have their own special needs do to their lifes before us. Jasper our dog can not be left alone he has severe separation anxiety , muffin the cat is a outside pet but will only eat inside. Toothless is a mainly inside cat but likes to go outside from time to time. When we have had Courtney watch our pets we never had to worry. She knew just what to do to calm Jasper down from load sounds. Toothless isn't the nicest cat but Courtney always made it a point to give him some love too. Our pets were always fed on time and well taken care of. I was sad to see her leave the state but now she will be able to help others with their fur babies as she did us.”
