“Hope was fabulous! Took care of Dolly & Chesney perfectly. Always sent pics &/or video to keep us in the loop. Couldn’t ask for a better situation. Especially when our holiday plans changed and we needed someone fast. She was very reactive. Thank you Hope!”


“Tessa is a gem. Loki loved her during the “meet and greet”, as she was playing with him and petting him. She followed our instructions and took excellent care of him. We look forward to the next time she can watch him!”


“This was the first time I had someone other than family care for my dogs and Taylor put my mind completely at ease! My dogs loved her! She sent tons of pictures and kept me updated. She was great!”

About: For my career I am a zookeeper taking care of all types of species from young to old. I have provided medical care and geriatric care. I currently work full time as a zookeeper and am looking for some side work that encompasses my passion of animals. Pet care is my full time job and full time home life. My pets have a fenced yard, an in/out kennel that allows them the freedom to be in or outside all day long. They have heat in the winter in the kennel and fans/fresh air in the summer. They stay in our home when we are home.

“Kylie was wonderful with our dogs! They loved her and are happy to see her! I was nervous about leaving them for a week, especially with my older dog being on a demanding medicine, but as soon as I met her I was instantly reassured and far more comfortable! I cannot recommend her enough! We get pictures and updates as we ask for them and as an emotionally attached Fur Mom, that’s exactly what I need when I’m away from my babies. THANK YOU, KYLIE! ♥️”


“Couldn’t be happier! She took such good care of my boys! I think they really would not have minded me being gone longer. Will definitely be asking her to sit for them again. She was great! Thank you so much!”


About: I've been caring for people's furbabies for many years in my home and staying at the clients homes. I'm very patient and flexible in caring for these pups (and cats!). Let me know what you need, and I will figure out how to meet that need! I live in Marion and am more than willing to travel the region. Again, I am flexible and willing to negotiate!

Just let me know what you need and I'd be happy to help! I work a flexible schedule so I can rotate my work needs around your pet's needs, no worries, I will get what is needed done! You can trust me to be gentle with your pet and give them the care and safety they need. If they need walks, play time, whatever, I can provide! I am currently able to have a flexible schedule and have minimal life responsibilities. Therefore I have quite an open schedule and am willing to accommodate almost anything! Again, I am flexible and willing to think outside the box to meet the needs of your family. I communicate frequently with the client to best understand the needs of the furbabies. I will make sure the animals (and humans) have the opportunity to build a relationship to establish trust and confidence in my ability to provide high quality of care.

“Kristan was wonderful with our dog. She is a large breed dog and was able to handle her with ease. She did everything I asked her too plus more. My dog thoroughly enjoyed her visits. I would get her again.”


About: Hi my name is Vada and I’m 27 years old. Ever since I can remember I’ve had a love for animals. I’ve been helping to train future service dogs for almost 10 years. I also am a camp counselor for Hoof-prints horse camp, I have been helping with that for over 10 years. Most importantly I love dog-sitting, and I love the feeling that people can put their trust in me. I also love that I’m helping the dog to stay in its normal environment. I even have my own dog, a lab/golden cross named Marbles. I can’t wait to meet your dog!!!! I have an open schedule currently! I can care for your pet(s) whenever is convenient for you. Whether it’s overnight stays or a quick drop in, I’ve got you covered! Since I will be in your home my goal will be to follow the routine that you prefer your dog or other pets to follow and is their normal routine. Including what time they get up in the morning, potty breaks, feedings, walking, and play time. This is something we will go over during a meet and greet at your home so that we can go over it together.

“Ian is the best! Our girls loved him from first sight. We got great communication from him the entire time we were gone. The pictures he sent us captured their personalities which reinforced that we chose the best sitter for them! We were so happy to find Ian and will definitely be using him again. I highly recommend him!”
