“I highly recommend Jackie! I received many pictures of my pups while I was away which was very reassuring for me. I will most definitely look for her again the next time I need someone. She also has a fenced in background which was perfect for a ton of play time.”


“We had an amazing experience with Taylor! She went above and beyond taking care of our two dogs. They got plenty of attention, walks, baths, and we loved receiving daily videos and photos. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. Our dogs were happy and well cared for, and we couldn't be more grateful. I highly recommend Taylor to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!”


“Christine was very friendly and showed Izzy a great deal of love. She was flexible in extending our dogs stay and gave our dog a great blanket to take home. Thank you Christine.”


“We're so thankful for Caitlin and her ability to take our boy Yogi for a last minute overnight stay. She's patient and kind and didn't judge him at all for being so overexcited lol. We're so happy to have found Caitlin and will definitely trust her with our boy again.”


“Debra was great! We did a meet and greet and she was really patient with my puppy, introducing him to each of her dogs one at a time and giving him time to just settle in with them. She is so kind. I would definitely recommend her!”


“Lucy had a good time with Amy, Gregory and their family. She got along with the family's other pets and they enjoyed her and sent lots of pictures and updates. I am very comfortable with their care for Lucy and have scheduled again with them.”


“We could not have asked for a better family to watch our dog! There was lots of communication and updates, which was very much appreciated while we were gone. They cared for Buster just like he was a member of their family. 1,000% recommend”


About: I am a retired nurse with 37 years of having 1-3 dogs in my house at a time. Currently I do not have any, and I miss it! I am retired and my days would be dedicated to your pup. I have plenty of free time and I enjoy going for walks on the Wobegon trail next to my house. I have 2.5 acres, though not fenced in. There is plenty of room for your dog to run, sleep, and play. They would have free range of the house and it’s very safe.

“Great Experience! ? This was first time my dog stayed with Ashley and Eric & family. We met at the dog park prior to the 2 night stay to ensure that we were a good match for each other. I received numerous photos of Wynnie during her stay. Both Ashley and Eric were very accommodating. I will definitely use their services again!”


“Sydney was able to help us out on short notice and everything went very smoothly. Our dog seemed very well cared for, communication was great and her home was very well suited for pet sitting.”


“We had a last minute need for our little pup to be watched over night and Amanda pulled through for us! She sent a picture of Skye just loving it up. When we picked her up she didn't even want to leave. It's so amazing to know that my baby is in great loving hands while we are away.”


About: Hi! I’m a middle school teacher, mom to 4 busy kids, and dog mom to ‘Jersey’ our mixed rescue. My house is a welcoming home away from home for your pup. Now that my kids are a bit older, I have a lot of time to give to your pup in the summer and would treat them like my own. I LOVE getting outdoors and walking as much as my legs can allow. Summer break allows for our family of six to enjoy the neighborhood. I have the flexibility to be home daily. Although my children are in multiple activities, I am always close to home. I will be out and about quite often driving kids to different places, but are never gone for more than a few hours. I am able to leave and take your pup for a quick walk multiple times a day, or welcome them into our house over the course of a couple days. My house has a fenced in yard in a nice family neighborhood. Our dog has her base camp on our upper level den, but we have a safe and separate area for your pet in our lower level that will be all theirs! I will walk multiple times daily and care for your pet as my own. My family has lots of love and cuddles to give if needed, but if your pup is more of a recluse, they can adjust accordingly!

“Bella loved her stay at Scott and Julia’s home. I think she really missed them when we got her home!! We didn’t worry a bit they let us know how things were going. We would definitely use this family again in the future!”


About: Since I can remember, my family has always had at least 1 dog in the house. Typically more! I am very familiar with everything that it takes to care for a dog of any age or size. I'm currently working very part time. And the rest of my time is spent with my 3 kids and my fur babies. I have plenty of time and would love to give my time to your fur baby. No matter what, your dog will be carefully watched over and cared for. I have plenty of eyes to help keep your dog safe and sound!

“Emily was an awesome dog-sitter for our precious Kai. Emily even picked him up for us from our wedding venue after the ceremony so that he could attend. Without this, it might have been difficult for him to attend. We couldn’t be happier with Emily’s prompt response time, punctuality, and overall care of our dog. If we were from the area, Emily would definitely be our first choice in pet sitter.”
