“A true professional and very good with our babies. It's clear that she loves what she does. She is very responsive and very kind and caring towards our dogs.”
“Kristen is wonderful. She is very responsive and accommodating. She takes great care of our Harry and sends the cutest pics during their walks. I would highly recommend her and will definitely be requesting her again!”
“My dog, Mason, & I both loved Natsuki! She was very responsive in messaging and thorough with her care. I received lots of pictures & updates that made me feel included throughout the days. She went above and beyond with treating Mason like her own fur baby. I will 100% recommend her to anyone that needs pet care!”
“Jessica was amazing! She walked my two dogs, a high strung chihuahua and elderly dog (14 y.o.), for 30min for 4 days. She reached out and asked if I wanted her to meet the dogs before walking them which was great. The chihuahua tends to bark his head off at strangers, and I wasn't sure how he'd react (he ended up running away from her the first day for 15min, sorry Jessica). The older dog had diarrhea throughout the house one day, and cleaning up after something like that isn't really what I consider her job. I told her she didn't need to worry about it, and I'd deal with it when I got back. However, she ended up cleaning up as much as she could anyways (that's going to be a big tip). Besides my dogs being a huge pain. She always responded quickly and sent a lot of pictures from the walks.”
“Shyanne was so patient and kind with my dog Ronnie. She paid close attention to all the details and was so nice to talk to. I really appreciated the care she showed. I would definitely recommend her!”
About: Hello, my name is Rylie! I am such a dog lover! Although I never owned one myself, I enjoy taking care of others to fill that void. I have been dog sitting since I was about 10 years old for multiple neighbors. Many would describe me as responsible and passionate since a very young age. I even attended many dog training classes for a puppy I babysat for two years. I am excited to continue my journey of taking care of dogs and other animals and ensure that owners will have enjoy time away without any stresses. I have lots of available time throughout the day to take pets on walks, feed, and check up on. I can ensure you that your pets are my top priority. The first and last thing I do before leaving a client’s house is checking the perimeters of the house to make sure assure there were no accidents made. I make sure there’s nothing your pets can get a hold of and chew on while I am taking care of them.
About: We provide care in our home and treat your babies like our own. We walk them multiple times a day, love on them, take them on field trips when possible, we spoil them rotten. We can help with crate training, potty training, house Manners etc. We have experience with Senior dogs ( most recent passed this December 2024 at 15 years old). I have had diabetic pets so am willing to administer meds as required. I have volunteered with a local rescue for 4 years now and have fostered for that long as well and have experience dealing with many difficult behaviors like resource guarding, counter surfing and more. Here at Bark n Kuddles we are a husband and Wife team so our dogs are very rarely alone. I teach high school so during the school day my husband takes the pups on walks, and outings and provides play time and snuggle time. When I am home we share the responsibilities and our kids are trained so they love on your babies too but they know boundaries and are very good at being mini pack leaders. The only time your pet would be alone is if we had to go somewhere as a family where dogs could not come but we have two pups of our own to keep them company but again that is rare that someone is not home. We only take one or two clients at a time as we have a small home but we take the dogs out on walks (Distance depends on the dogs need but could be 2 to 3 miles easily) and I have access to a big fenced in yard that my family owns should dogs need off leash time and play time (under our watch at all times of course). We do crate dogs when home alone for their safety and to protect the house but they get yummy kongs with frozen treats and other treats as long as owner is ok with it. We love on them how the pups want to be loved on. If they want to lay next to us we let them. If they prefer to just chill off to the side that's all good too. We also follow all owners instructions whether in our home or yours and give your baby the attention they need to keep them happy and safe while you are gone.
About: I have a history caring for many dogs and cats, as well as other species! While I haven’t been doing petsitting through online platforms, I have years of personal and professional experience caring for and getting to know furry friends with a range of different personalities. These sometimes include those with extra needs due to attachment styles and/or medical accommodations. I believe that an animal's health benefits greatly from a loving caregiver, which is what I always strive to be for my clients. As someone with a passion for running and job history of always being on my feet, I am fully capable of giving more active dogs the exercise they deserve. If your pet needs a little extra love, I'm the sitter for you! I am currently working self-structured hours as a children’s book illustrator. Pet care is my main priority during my day-to-day, and I'm always excited when it's added to my daily or weekly schedule. I stay vigilant during walks, playtime, and mealtime to ensure the safety of your pet. If possible, I love to play with your pet during our time together, because they are my top priority and I know how much they miss you (as the owner of a very social, affectionate dog, I completely get it)!

“Willow was great with Lacey. Lacey took to her right away, and I always knew I could count on Willow to make sure she got a great, full-length walk. Her communication was great and she was just a huge help while I was out of town -- I'd definitely book Willow again!”
About: I am a true dog lover. I currently have one lab mix we rescued a year ago. Her name is Oakley. Oakley also is looking forward to having a friend to play with! I will spoil your dog as I spoil mine. They will get extra attention, walks, playing, able to jump on couch and bed! I also volunteer at a local shelter so I am very familiar with many types of dogs and personalities. I am a mom to 4 human kids and 1 dog. Your dog will almost always have someone home with them unless we run out to the store, a family outing, or a children's sports event. If your dog likes to tag along we can take him/her to soccer games as well! If your dog comes to stay with us they will be spoiled. We have a fenced-in yard they can play in, I will also take them on walks either morning or afternoon depending upon weather. They will get to snuggle on the couch or bed. They also will get to play with my 1 year old lab mix who just loves all dogs!
About: Hello! My name is Marissa. I have had a dog in my family all my life. In fact, when I was a transfer I took up dog obedience and agility training with my family dog. I have taken care of all types of dogs including seniors as well as puppies. I also volunteer at the animal shelter and there I deal with all types of dogs from various backgrounds so I have experience with behaviorally challenged dogs as well. I have also taken care of cats and some have grown very attached to me. If you have any questions please feel free to reach out! During the summer I have very open availability and I am free most weekends and during the week all day. Since I work as a teacher, during the school year I am only available before and after work as well as on the weekends. I am very respectable of others property while still giving the animals personalized attention. I make sure to spend as much time as possible with them. I work with them and have learned to be very patient with other cautious animals.
About: I enjoy being around animals, fur babies are the sweetest. I try my best to make sure they are comfortable around me and not push them to like me right away, I am so use to watching my own pets that now that my dogs have passed I have all this time available. My routine stays the same for me. Providing food water, exercise, walks are amazing for pets to help with their mood. Clear countertops to ensure dogs don’t have access to garage bags, even if I’m in a fence yard supervise pets during outdoor activities. Very mindful of potential hazards. Provide a comfortable environment for the pet.
About: Animals have always been a part of my life even before I was born. Have had mostly cats, but have a strong love and connection to all animals. I work at a local restaurant in the evening but I can be flexible sometimes. I'm also looking for a way give back to the community and work with animals at the same time. My cats and I are like a pride. They're very social with me and visitors. And when I eat the often eat when we do as well to discourage begging. I have friends with service dogs and animals, so I familiar with different needs for different animals and different species.

Rylie L.
“I highly recommend Rylie as an animal sitter. Rylie has been caring for animals for several years. She has a genuine love for animals. She is responsible, mature and dedicated to her commitments. She has cared for both dogs and cats, as well as smaller pets like fish, turtles and hamsters. Some of those responsibilities intel feeding, walking, playtime, cleaning up after the animals, handling medications and giving extra love and affection to the pets while the owners are away. She doesn’t just “watch” animals—she genuinely cares for them. Whether it’s getting up early to ensure dogs are walked on time or sending photo to the owners for peace of mind. Rylie goes above and beyond. Rylie took 2 years of small animal care classes in high school to gain knowledge and experience working with different types of animals. Rylie is responsible, trustworthy, reliable and has a sincere love for animals. Anyone would be lucky to have her watch their pet!”

Reagan P.
“Reagan was wonderful taking care of Fenrir (3 year old black indoor cat). She stayed with him for a handful of days, grooming, cuddling and feeding him. There was no issue at all and Fenrir loved her. I would absolutely leave Fenrir in her care again and again. No one else has done nearly a good of a job!”
