“My dog, Lewis, got to spend an afternoon with Genna and a few other dogs that were at her house. It went great! I could not say enough good things, the house is so nice with a great fenced back yard, the other dogs were fun and sweet, and Lewis came home tired but happy. Genna sent me a few updates and pictures throughout the day, which was so thoughtful and comforting! Lewis will definitely be making another visit soon! ”

“Darcie really helped us out, accepting our last-minute booking for our Giant Schnauzer puppy, Iris, without hesitation! Iris undoubtedly had a great time, with access to lots of sunshine and outside play in the large fenced-in yard - just what she needs. We will definitely reach out to Darcie in the future!”

“Emily did a wonderful job watching my dog! She was very communicative and kind throughout the process. Prior to booking, she arranged a meet and greet to ensure our dogs got along well, which I think attests to her thoughtfulness in making sure your pet’s time in her care goes well! She cares for your pet like her own.”

About: I showed pitbulls semi professionally when I was a teenager. I have lived on a farm most my life so animals and I always get along. I'm currently working from home as a Game Developer. I am on a rugby team that practices Tuesday/Thursday 6-8pm and games on Saturdays, so there are a few select times I'm not available.

About: Hello! My name is Katelyn Lamb (in photo is my husband Chris, and our dogs Odin and Henderson), I have taken care of animals since the age of 5. I was in 4H and have multiple years of experience with various animals but currently work the most with dogs who I have 10 years experience pet sitting with. I've also worked for multiple animal shelters and volunteer currently at shelters in my free time! Our home has a great back yard to play in and we allow dogs to any part of our house, which also means they are constantly being looked after. Any food, treat, sleep, play time, or medication routine will be followed per owner instructions. I typically only accept one pup at a time to ensure that your fur baby is getting all the spoils they deserve! But if you have a sibling group please let me know and I can possibly accommodate that. Thank you! I work from home and do not leave the house during the normal 9-5 schedule I have for work. I am also a student studying for my masters completely online. So, I do not leave the house often and have time to always ensure the safety and care of your pup. I have a fenced in yard and two dogs one small and one large for your dog to play with. Both of my dogs are up to date on shots and are also non-aggressive and just love to play and run around the yard.

“Tiffany was great! We were traveling through Iowa and needed a place to leave Tommy for the afternoon so we could take a riverboat sightseeing tour. Due to poor planning on my part we had to find someone just a few days before our trip, but Tiffany responded to my request very quickly and was able to take him on short notice. She was so kind, and Tommy warmed up to her quickly. We really appreciated having a great place to take him for the afternoon!”

About: An an animal lover and long term pet owner, I have a wide variety of personal experience in puppies and senior animal care; cats and dogs included. I elevate the pet care experience by seamlessly integrating experience in puppy training with positive reinforcement in my own dog, personal and compassionate experience with senior cat and dog care, the added touch of a peaceful backyard garden oasis, and child free home. Working from home allows me to extend my commitment to your pet's well-being into a peaceful supervised indoor and outdoor experience, where my passion in community garden work contributes to a unique and stress-free environment. Imagine your furry friend exploring lush surroundings, benefiting from the sensory delights and tranquility of nature, with no immediate pet neighbors for an accommodating sensory environment for your pet. I wake up around 5am to take care of morning feeding and outdoor breaks before my workday starts at 8am. Typically, I let dogs out in about 2 hour increments throughout my teaching day, keeping my pet and guest pets separate for optimal supervision. After work, about 5-6pm I'll feed pets dinner, and then take my dog on its daily walk, and your dog is welcome to join if that is their preferred activity. If leash walking is not preferred, then a jaunt in the backyard for exercise is a great happy medium. I have a privacy fenced in yard that can keep your dog safe during outdoor play. Pets are limited to the main floor for optimal supervision during my work day. During feeding, dogs are fed in separate rooms as a preventative behavior measure in a new environment.
