“We have a few elderly pups that we needed watched while we went out of town so we reached out to Yu. She came to our house before hand for a meet and greet that went great. While gone, she provided updates and many photos. We would 100% ask for her services again!”


“Lindsey is AMAZING with my dogs!! She also takes a ton of pics and updates me on everything that they did during her visits. I am now able to enjoy vacations with my son without having to worry about our fur babies!”


“Very professional, I'd trust her with my life. 🫶”


About: I have been taking care of dogs for a large portion of my life. I have taken care of various sized dogs and have enjoyed them all from the smallest chihuahua to the largest Great Dane! I recently graduated from graduate school and am studying for my licensure exam. This gives me lots of flexibility in my schedule and makes it very easy for me to spend time with your doggo! I have taken care of various types of animals which has required me to become comfortable with being able to crate pets as well as administer oral medications for both dogs and cats. For the animals that like a little extra loving, I’m always willing to cuddle up and provide some TLC!

About: I helped with my Mom's dog boarding kennel. I bred and showed different breeds in Obedience and dog shows. I love dogs. Lots of experience. I am retired and would be with your pet most of the day and night. I have two Shelties. We play fetch every day in my fully fenced in back yard. As a child, I learned safety for dogs and myself. I supervise potty and play time in my fenced yard. I have never lost a dog. I don't let my dogs unattended in the yard. Your dog will be supervised,loved and safe.

“Wonderful reliable sitter!”


About: I have raised my 2 dogs for 11 years now. I make sure to keep my dogs happy and healthy everyday by providing daily exercise and spending lots of time with them! I currently have two dogs at home, they are friendly so any dog is welcome! My schedule is very flexible. I am a college student, so my family helps out with dog sitting if I am not available. I make sure every dog who comes to my house is happy and has a great time! I always make sure to keep my dogs active. I do my best to satisfy their needs and keep them happy. I make sure to treat your dogs like mine and make it feel like their second home. I love keeping them occupied and make them feel loved!

About: I've had dogs since I was 5 years old, and I can't think of a time in my life where I haven't had at least one dog in my house. I have a fur baby named Chloe who is spoiled rotten, and I work for a fresh dog food company so I am passionate about dog health and giving our furry friends the best lives possible while they're here with us. After attending puppy training following the adoption of my first dog (as an adult), I learned how to effectively teach basic commands for obedience and safety. I work from home, so I am always around to provide care. Some days are naturally busier than others, but I'm happy to stop in between meetings or on lunch breaks, and have no problem spending extra time before or after work hours as well. At my home, I have a large fenced yard and three pups of my own. Two are senior, but one is young and ready to play! None of them are aggressive and I introduce dogs slowly to ensure they get along before letting them off leashes and running wild. At your home, I'll respect your wishes and your home. If you'd like your pet crated or gates into a specific area, I'm happy to do that. If you prefer to let them roam free, then I'll give them free reign of the house after I top up their food and water and provide them with enrichment/play time (and a walk, if desired).

“Ridge was great. He was reliable and took excellent care of our 3 dogs and cat. I will definitely use him again.”


About: With over three years of experience as a kennel technician, I bring hands-on knowledge and a deep love for dogs of all shapes and sizes. I’ve cared for everything from playful puppies to senior dogs, and I’m comfortable with all breeds—from tiny Chihuahuas to extra-large Cane Corsos and everything in between. I’m experienced in administering medications, managing feeding schedules, and providing safe, enjoyable walks tailored to each dog’s needs. Whether your pup needs extra snuggles, structure, or space, I’m here to give them the care and attention they deserve while you’re away. Although I work a part-time job, I prioritize making sure every pet’s needs are fully met. I understand how important it is that dogs aren’t cooped up for hours at a time—they need attention, bathroom breaks, exercise, and love throughout the day. I plan my schedule carefully to ensure I’m available for timely feedings, walks, and playtime, and I’m always committed to giving your dog the care and companionship they deserve, no matter what. Dogs truly are my heart—mine are my children and my number one priority every single day. When I care for pets in my home, they’re treated like family. I create a calm, cozy, and safe environment where each dog gets plenty of love, attention, and playtime. Whether it’s belly rubs on the couch, a walk around the block, or just relaxing in the sun, I make sure every pup feels at home and cared for. Your dog will be welcomed with open arms (and maybe a few treats too)!

“Kennedy was excellent. My cats are very shy but she got them to come out and got great photos to send me. She gave me great peace of mind while I was gone. It was the first time leaving my babies in the care of someone other than me. I would highly recommend her.”


“I was very lucky to find Katie last minute and I’m so glad I did! She is very kind and very thorough when it came to watching our pets while away. Love that she kept an open line of communication and that I felt she trustworthy and responsible. I would definitely hire her again in the future!!!”


“Amanda was great taking care of our little one! She sent us updates during all her visits and gave our cat plenty of play and attention. Will definitely be repeat clients”


About: I have two dogs of my own, and have grown up taking care of animals my entire life. My dogs are super friendly and love making new friends! I work from home so I have plenty of time to give your pup all the attention and love! I do not accept bully breads. I apologize in advance. I’m currently a stay at home mom. I’m available any time during the week and weekends. I have plenty of time and attention to give to your pups! We have a big fenced yard, with plenty of room to run and play! Both of our dogs are super playful and love when they get to have visitors! 🙂

“Kyara was amazing! She’s so sweet and took care of our Arlo baby so well. The pictures were adorable and she followed all the instructions very well!”


“My picky 8 year old dog loves Alyssa, who affectionately gives great belly rubs. My almost 1 year old pup needs more frequent visits, and Alyssa was wonderfully punctual. I'm grateful to have found such care, and we are booking again!”


“Madison did a great job with our three Boykin Spaniels. She took care of their essential needs and also took time to play with them. She communicated well before and during our weekend away. Thank you, Madison!”


“Kristen was super nice & friendly and my dogs loved her! Would definitely recommend. ❤️”


About: We are an animal loving family of five. My husband, children, and I adore dogs and will lovingly take care of yours while you’re away! I am a stay at home parent so I'm home and available much of the time to tend to your pet as needed. I love exercising and being outdoors and would love to take your dog for a walk or run depending on his or her needs. I'm also willing to take care of multiple dogs if you have more than one. Your pet is sure to get plenty of affection and attention here with all of our family members! We are flexible and adaptable to whatever your pet needs. The highlight of my day is spending time with and caring for animals. I will make sure your pet is loved and doted on and has their needs met! I adore cats and would love to come to your house to care for your cat/cats but at this time I cannot board cats at our home.

About: I'm an enthusiastic animal lover with a true passion for caring for pets of all shapes and sizes. I live on a mini farm where I share my life with a variety of animals, including goats, pigs, sheep, dogs, cats, a bearded dragon, a hamster, and fish! I have a special fondness for dogs and understand their unique needs and personalities. My experience in the medical field has equipped me to handle various emergencies, so you can rest assured that your furry friends will be in safe hands. I believe in loving animals unconditionally and providing them with the care they deserve. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or just cuddling on the couch, I’m dedicated to ensuring that your pets feel comfortable and loved while you're away! Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or if you’d like to chat about how I can help care for your beloved pets! I currently work full time so I am only available on the weekends and some evenings! My calendar is blocked out for most week days but please feel free to reach out if you need your dog walked or a quick drop-in and I will see how I’m able to assist during the week! When caring for pets in someone else's home, I start by obtaining detailed instructions from the owner about feeding schedules, exercise routines, and any specific needs. I make sure to familiarize myself with the household rules regarding pet access and do my best to maintain the pets' regular routines to minimize their stress. I always provide fresh water, follow feeding instructions, and engage the pets in regular play and exercise. I keep a watchful eye on them for any signs of distress or health issues, and I make sure to keep the environment clean by tidying up after them. Spending quality time with the pets is important to me, as it helps them feel secure and loved. I also familiarize myself with the nearest veterinarian and have the owner's contact information handy for emergencies. Lastly, I keep the owner updated with messages or photos to reassure them that their pets are happy and well cared for. By following these guidelines, I ensure a positive experience for both myself and the pets.
