“Jordan took great care of our boy Thor. We’ve never used Rover before so I was nervous leaving him, especially with being a puppy. But she made me feel so much better by offering a meet and greet and keeping me updated throughout his stay with her. I’ll definitely be using her again!”

About: I was born into a home full of animals. As a child we had 3 dogs(1medium/2large, 3 cats, and the random array of fish/turtles between me and my 6 siblings. As a teenager we had 2 dog(1small/1medium) and 1 cat. Now as an adult my family and I have 1 dog and 1 cat. We did have a senior (21 years old) cat that passed away in 2023 due to old age. We have a Labrador retriever and a black and white cat . My family and I love animals and helping people. I have cared for my own pets as well as the pets of my family and friends my whole life. I’m sure with detailed instructions I can help care for your furry loved ones! Our schedule is all over the place. My husband works for the fire department on a rotating schedule. I work Sunday, Monday, Thursday, Friday// Tuesday, Wednesday, Sunday as a rotating schedule because I work in EMS too. Either myself or my husband is almost always home to watch our son and our own animals. On the rare occasion our shifts line up (once or twice every few weeks) a sitter would come to my home to help with the kids if we are both gone. My availability is very open since my husband is usually home when I am not, your pet will get love around the clock! For our home: I have a 8.5 year old black lab golden retriever mix. A 1 year old cat. A 2.5 year old human toddler and an 6 month old infant. We have baby gates to separate the living room from the kitchen and the living room from the hallway/bedrooms. We also added a baby gate between the laundry room and the kitchen. There are multiple barriers able to be used if needed. The gates are wall mounted for increased safety. Since there is almost always an adult home we have plenty of time to love and care for your pets! We have a water bubbler that we have connected to the Alexa so we are able to turn it on and off for our pets even if we are not home. We have a few parks around us that are just a short drive away. We have a large metal cage that’s available if needed. We have a very large fenced yard with lots of room for running and exploring! We have cameras around the house in almost every room for security, safety, and to catch funny moments. One camera is pointed at the dog cage as well for safety. For at your home: I will follow all acceptable and agreed upon rules and care for your pets the way that you tell me too! I will admit that sometimes I run a few minutes late due to having my 2 year son and my infant daughter with me! But for short visits (potty breaks) I can keep them in the car if needed!

About: I have had my own dogs for five years. I am not a dog trainer or anything like that just a loving dog mom with capacity to host others. I'm most comfortable with dogs under 50lbs like mine. An adjacent set of skills I have are experience with supporting children with mental health challenges for over 20 years so I have developed a keen since of patience and a very loving affect I work remotely on zoom meetings all day so I am home nearly 24/7 during the days. My dogs are the center of my days (outside of work) they would enjoy seeing other dogs and I keep them well exercised, fed, and loved. I have two mini golden doodles (Astra 20lbs and Simba 32lbs). They have free range of the house and they like to play and cuddle with other dogs when family and friends have visited with their dogs. When they board at my sitter's home they are also used to being around other dogs and even a cat. It doesn’t take long for them to settle into play and cuddling after a few minutes meeting new dogs at home. My dogs are groomed every 6 weeks and are up to date on all of their vet care.

“Maddox stayed with Shannon for about 6 hours while our family hosted a Christmas Buffet at our home. Shannon was wonderful! We got pictures and updates throughout the evening and got great feedback from her when we went to pick him up. During our correspondence before the stay she got back to me so quickly and was just all around great! Thanks so much, Shannon!”

About: I have taken care of dogs my whole life. I watch my parents dog when they are out of town also a friends two pups when she goes out of town. I’m currently only working as needed at my job and have extra free time during the day to take walks with your dog when they need let out or just some time to get out and get some exercise. I will always make sure your dog is on a leash and is safe inside and outside the home. If the dog needs to be in the crate before leaving that will also be done.

About: I enjoy having dogs, and started using this website when I went out of town. Because of this, I know the high standard of care I expect from my sitter, and what you should expect too. I will take the time and care you would for your own dog. I'll give them snuggles, playtime, and lots of outside time depending on the crazy weather we have here of course. Myself and my doggy friends love to take walks, play tug-of-war, fetch and other games your dog enjoys or might enjoy. If your dog comes to our house we have a fully enclosed backyard. It is a great big yard enough to play fetch with a few dogs at the same time. Some just like to sun bathe and watch everyone else run around. Your dogs will have so much fun, and will be well loved while they are here. When my doggie friends come back for a visit the owners tell me the dogs are excited when they turn down my street. I have a Yorkie named Jack, and 3 mini Bernedoodles named Elenor, Dahlia, and Franklin. I am not taking unneutered or unspayed dogs at this time. I have lots of available hours to spend with your pets. My schedule is consistent usually, but fairly open. In the past, I was walking dogs. Not sure if I am going to start doing that or not. I have a fenced in yard and 4 dogs to keep your dog company. We can play in the yard or hang out in the house. I have lots of toys and balls.

About: Got a cavalier when kids left 20 years ago and have been in love with and taken care of pups for family and friends ever since! I work part time as a sub at a local school lunchroom. Consequently, I have a good deal of time to do what I enjoy most, spending time with and caring for pups!! (and on occasion, cats!) I live in a lovely neighborhood with a nice balance of open space and paths for walks. My husband (also a dog lover) and I have a fenced yard and pup bowls and leashes and toys and even a small crate (from Harley) if your pup feels better taking a nap in it! (and he fits!)
