About: I have been taking care of animals since I was a kid who lived on a little farm. My experience ranges from birds, ferrets, reptiles, & cats, dogs. Animal care has always been something I’m passionate about. I know how important my animals are to me and so I will take the best care of yours while you’re away. I am a full time teacher so pet care is on the evenings most of the time. I can schedule weekends ahead of time and be available all day to let your loved ones outside as needed. During the summer my availability will be wide open! My pets are treated like a member of the family. I think that animals in our care should be shown love and grace because we chose to take care of them.

“Kayla was great with my rambunctious Dalmatian! She ensured to tire her out each walk. I received several photos and a detailed description each time. She even asked before treating my pup to a pup cup, which I thought was very thoughtful. I would definitely use her in the future!”


About: I am local foster through a local rescue. My husband and I both have a passion for dogs and will treat your fur babies like they are our own! We have experience caring for puppies as young as 8 week and seniors. We are comfortable administering medications if needed and are familiar with pups who may have seizures. We don’t have any stairs so there is no need to worry about a senior pup who might have hip issues needing to climb stairs. I work full time and my husband works full time as well. Our schedules are staggered so your pup would be let out first thing in the morning by myself and then my husband will resume until he leaves for work. Midday we have a family member come over and let the dogs go outside and allow them to eat and drink as well as have some time to play. They are never left alone for more than 4-6 hours at a time. The days I’m off I’m home and my husband works from home 2 days a week as well. We have had this routine for over 4 years now with our own personal dogs and there has never been any issues. We had a brand new privacy fence installed on July 12th! We have a half acre back yard so dogs will have plenty of room to run! We will do our best to accommodate any special requests you may have. Please note our home was recently built so our grass is still in the process of growing. There may be days your pet becomes muddy if conditions are rainy. I am happy to provide a bath for your pet for a small additional fee upon request. I also highly recommend doing a meet and greet prior to your stay to ensure your dog will be comfortable with my pets and around the house.

About: I am an all around animal lover who is looking forward to taking care of your furry companion. As someone who has lived with dogs for their entire life, I know what your pet means to you and I am fully capable of providing for their needs whenever you are not around. With me, not only would I be providing them with the essentials (food, water, etc.) but I would make sure to ensure their comfort since I know how much they'll miss you (and vice versa). I am currently working part time at a local business but spend the majority of time at home. I am available most hours of the day to compassionately care for your pet! I have a fenced-in yard with two friendly dogs with plenty of space for privacy for any nervous pets visiting. We have 1 large and 1 small crate that we can easily use if your dog prefers a safe, closed-in environment. Pets are also welcome on all our furniture, I just request a fore-warning if your companion is a chewer so I know to take extra care keeping an eye on them. :) If you prefer me to come to your home to care for your pet, I would love to schedule a day to visit your home ahead of time and you can teach me their routine so I can keep them as comfortable as possible. :)

“Sarah was really friendly to meet and great at communicating when we were away. She sent us pictures of the pets. We felt good that someone was dropping by the house while we were gone. Additionally, we loved that our dogs were getting worn out so they didn't focus their energies on the couch! I will most definitely be contacting Sarah again when we travel.”


About: I’m certified in Pet First Aid and Dog & Cat CPR.⛑️ I’ve taken care of dogs of every breed, size & age since I was 8!

About: Have you ever met someone who just seems to attract animals? Well, that’s me. I was raised around dogs, including breeding Cocker Spaniels and German Shepherds, junior handling a Weimaraner and training for obedience and for service dogs. These days I’m a dedicated cat mama with a crazy Corgi who thinks she's a cat! I've recently had to give up transporting furry friends all over the country and since I'll be home for the foreseeable future, I'm available to take care of the local fur babies. I can't board dogs in my home but cats are welcome. In fact, they'll have their own room, complete with a cat tree by the window so they can bask in the morning son and watch the dog run in her little yard. I can house sit and keep your furry children company or just drop>n and visit a couple times a day. If your dog needs a playmate while you're away I know a Corgi who is always willing. I was on the road for most of the month but I had to give that up - at least for now. I'm not working on anything else so I have plenty of time to play with your babies while you're away. I have a young Corgi and an older cat, both fixed and friendly. Right now I have an extra bedroom setup for the cat and I keep the Corgi contained with a baby gate. Cats boarded in my home will be in the bedroom at all times and my cat will just have to take his naps in the living room. Unless you give me permission for me to bring my dog to your house to play, she's not invited.

Megan B.Star Sitter
“Megan is very much in love with all animals and truly values them. I have witnessed Megan in contact with many animals many times and they always are able to sense her calm and loving attitude towards them. There have been quite a few times when even the most nervous and protective dogs are not phased by her presence and even welcome her to pet them. She is always brave enough to cautiously go up to them and prove her good intent. I’ve always been appreciative of her balance between authority and kindness when it comes to pets. She knows went to show her authority and more importantly when to show her love (all the time)! I would feel very relaxed when leaving knowing she was watching over my pack of dogs and cats at home.”
