About: Your search for a passionate sitter who will treat your dog like their own has ended. My husband and I can provide excellent care for your dog in the comfort of their own home. I'm experienced, I started caring for my families dogs Penny and Harley, during my childhood. I loved looking after my own pets so much, I started my own pet sitting business. After that I was hooked!! I absolutely love what I do. I am responsible and have great time management. With that being said, I have a wonderful husband who loves helping me out sometimes and he loves playing and hanging out with the dogs we take care of. We make a great team. :) Your dog will love that we both have a lot of energy, if they want to play, go on long walks, or snuggle on the couch together. We can't wait to meet your furry friend. We promise to treat your pet like our own. I’m currently a stay at home mom. I had my daughter in October 2024 and I’m currently taking care of her. I will be taking care of dogs soon. I prefer to take care of dogs in the comfort of their own home. Having a fenced yard or somewhere they can run around is great. I don’t mind putting them in a separate room or crate if needed while running errands sometimes.

About: I have been a pet owner for the majority of my life and have taken care/previously owned of a plethora of animals such as snakes, dogs, cats, and hamsters! I love all animals and find great joy in caring and tending to them! I’m currently a stay at home family member who has open availability week round to help care for others pets whether they need to travel, work, or have other places/responsibilities to attend. I live in a quiet, suburban neighborhood with wetlands as our backyard! There is plenty of room in the backyard where they can run around and explore as well as a 2 mile long boardwalk not far from our home where they can enjoy the fresh air near the river!

“April is really sweet, and nice! She was very reliable, and I’m so thankful to have her come and walk my dog for me when I’m working! She does exactly what I ask of her. My dog seemed relaxed and happy when I got home.”


About: I provide a full-service experience. I groom, walk, play, and pamper your dog, all while giving them the kind of environment they need - whether that's calm and easygoing or fun and fast-paced. I treat every dog like they're my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved the whole time. I'm currently working part-time while going to college to become a nurse, but I dedicate all of my free time to caring for dogs. When I'm with them, they have my full, undivided attention, whether it's for play, walks, grooming, or just making them feel safe and loved. I'm available Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays, and Sundays, and can work any time before 5 PM on those days. I'd love the chance to care for your pup like they're my own! Your dog's safety, comfort, and trust are my top priorities. I only watch dogs in their own homes, where they feel most secure and relaxed in a familiar environment. I believe dogs do best when they're in their own space and surrounded by what they know and love. For walks, I take dogs through neighborhoods or in town, always choosing areas with good visibility and plenty of people around - just in case help is ever needed. If your dog is reactive, I don't push it. I spend time with them outside in the backyard, working on leash skills and commands in a safe, controlled way. If needed, I'm also comfortable using a crate to give a reactive dog space to calm down at their own pace, in their own spot. My goal is always to keep dogs safe, calm, and comfortable in their own little world - where they're happiest!

I love spending time with my animals and also have a Sniffspot so other dogs can enjoy our space.

All dogs are welcome to be inside or outside. We have 5 fully fenced acres.

About: I got my first dog on my 5th birthday. Her name was Lucky, but 5 year old me thought my dog's name should be Princess. I have loved dogs ever since, and I'm pretty sure they love me too. I'm the guy laying on the floor covered in dog hair at social events. Friends and family have trusted me to care for their dogs for many years. I work from home full-time, so I can drop in or walk during my lunch break or when I log off for the day at 3pm. Safety first. I have been around dogs my whole life, and can read their body language and identify the warning signs of aggression. I avoid encounters with other dogs on walks when possible. If walking a dog friendly dog, I verbally confirm with the other human if it is ok for a quick hello.

About: I grew up with dogs, and was always helping feed, walk, and train them since they were puppies. I've also had other pets in my life: cats, small furry pets, and multiple reptiles.

I can provide whatever works best for you and your pet/pets!

I do take care of my puppy when I’m home but I live with my family who takes care of him as well. I’d love to fit your pets into my schedule! If your pet comes to my home I do have a fully fenced front and back lawn. As well as a great neighborhood for going on walks.

Kayla B.Star Sitter
“I lived with Kaila for about a year, in that time I saw her take in and successfully rehome multiple dogs. No matter what the handy-cap of the animal she found them a loving home that was right for them. She is extremely in tune to what a dog needs and how much of it. She is one of the best animal owners I have ever met. I have been a dog groomer (professionally for 5 years) and a dog trainer for a little over a year. I have met many dogs and even more owners. I would trust her with any of my animals.”
