“Sarah went above and beyond by far to care for our cats while we were gone for a couple weeks. She did much much more than what was asked of her.”
About: I have trained both my dogs & helped others with training their dogs, as well as dog sat & walked many kinds of dogs growing up big & small. Also very good at following another dogs routine and patient at getting them settled if they aren't good with change. I have a very flexible schedule and a prompt replier to messages, texts, calls etc. So I have ample time to drop in, house sit, and walk your pup. I am also currently providing doggie daycare/boarding at my residence! I have a large fenced in yard with very social, well mannered and dog friendly dogs. My fiance loves dogs too so extra love for them, we are pro dog walkers and positive training with plenty of treats for your pup! I work very part time so my availability is flexible and abundant. I am also willing to work with your schedule and needs and will provide your dog with care during the duration of their stay/durig my duration of caring for them whether it's just a long walk that day or watching them at their home for the day! I have a fenced in yard (a full acre!) and pet friendly dogs who love to play and just relax with company. Also majority of our visitors at the house love dogs, as does my fiancé who is home when I am not! Also plenty of space provided for you to bring your crate/kennel for your pupper. I can't say long daily walks occur always but they do happen and if arent done are usually replaced with intellectual and physical play in the yard!
About: I have taken care of all of our pets since I was little! I help family friends out when they go out of town, or just for a walk. Dogs give the greatest form of unconditional love so I want to give it in return. I do not work at the moment so I have the free time and ability to take care of pups with up most enjoyment and freedom. I can walk your dog, or play with them if you have a fence! I walk my dogs and try to play fetch with them because that is their favorite things to do.
“We have used Hannah multiple times, highly recommended her for all your pet sitting needs. She is prompt about updates and always sends pics of our fur babies!”
“Ann was super dependable and I trust her in my home!”
“Toria was very quick to respond. She made sure to ask what all was expected of her. She also took several pictures through the visit which I appreciate. I would work with her again”
“Haley always does fantastic with our dogs! We trust that she shows up when we need her to and she’s not scared off by our dogs crazy barking! Highly recommend!”
“Caitlin has provided drop in visits for our dog and cat for multiple trips. She is easy to work with and great with our pets. It's nice to know your pets are in good hands while we are away!”
“Darcie was a wonderful! We had to leave our 3.5 month puppy, Bender overnight and were worried that he would have a hard time adjusting to a boarding facility. Darcie was the pet sitter we contacted. She was great and despite her busy week made time to meet with us. When we explained Bender was a shy pup she made extra effort to come see him before we left at our house to get him familiar with her. We received several pictures and updates through the day/night she was at our house. She also volunteered to work with him to overcome his timidness. He is shy of walks but went out with Darcie very comfortably!”
About: I've had a small Shih Tzu/Toy Poodle dog for 10 yrs and cats on and off throughout my life. I had my most recent cat for 15 yrs until she passed in 2023. I work full-time, but have availability often in the afternoons, evenings and many weekends. I occasionally have flexibility through the work week as well. That being said, I am happy to work with you to accommodate your pet's schedule. I unfortunately cannot bring others' pets into my home or offer overnight house sitting due to my own pets, however, I am happy to work with you to ensure your pet stays on their schedule in your home where they are most comfortable.
“Maelynn was great with my high-energy pup! She took fantastic care of him and left a detailed Rover card, including lots of pictures of their adventure together. I highly recommend Maelynn!”
About: I am very patient with animals, whether it be a puppy potty training, one with special needs or seniors. You can trust that they are very well loved in your absence. I only work part time so I have a lot of availability. I can just drop in or I can take them for walks and give them quality time. If cared for in my home, you can trust that your pet is well taken care of. I have a 6 ft privacy fence, BIG back yard and a doggy pool if they like to play in water. I also have orthopedic beds in 2 seperate built in dog creates.
About: My husband and I love dogs. My two daughters also love dogs. We live in the country and have a big yard with two small dogs. I am a home maker who homeschools my children and am at home most of the time. Caring for the dogs will be part of my daughters homeschooling as they may get into the pet / vet profession one day. My husband works in ministry with a flexible schedule, which will allow him to help sometimes too. We also need the extra income to help save money for our daughter's education. This will be a good experience for the whole family and will keep our girls busy with something productive to do and get them to go out doors as opposed to watching television.
About: I am a college student who usually has a ton of homework. This means I don't travel much and can't get a full time job necessarily while I'm in school. I have watched a few of my family friends and neighbors houses for the past few years while they are away. I can train the animals to do certain tricks. Like fun ones! I keep the house nice and clean while letting the animals be happy and cared for. I am a busy college student so on breaks I am free constantly because I can't get a full time job during that time. So this fits my schedule where I can do my homework while working. I keep the place tidy and clean. Problebly clean up stuff that isn't even there. Make it look better than how I found it. I give the pets care by playing with them. Taking them on walks, rides to the park, and giving them love and attention.

“I have known Loida a little over five years now. She has a family of six which includes their two dogs. For years Loida has owned or taken care of multiple dogs. She has willingly taken care of family and friends' dogs; sometimes overnight. Loida knows a lot about dogs. She can identify mort mixes by breed and tell you certain traits and characteristics of others. Again, she's very passionate about people and pets. She'll respect you enough to treat your pet like her own. I would trust Loida to care for my dog anytime. Plus she has two assistants (daughters) to lend a helping hand at all times... So, do not doubt, but check her out! ? J. T.”
