Janelly was great! We were somewhat nervous as Chase is new to us as well, but she set our minds at ease. Her family is lovely and she provided a video of Chaserino playing with her boys, happy pup!! We will absolutely work with her again! Thank you so much!

Brianna and her family were absolutely amazing and caring with my dog Oz... she sent awesome pictures and updates through out the day ... I had no worries or fears ... She was even very understanding and forgiving when my fur baby left his manners at home and decided to mark his ownership all over her beautiful home❤️??... We both look forward to visiting with her again❤️??

About: What Pet Parents Can Expect Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover with over 35 years of experience caring for pets of all kind, from pampered pups to quirky cats, bunnies, and everything in between. When your pet is with me, they’re not just getting care, they’re getting love, snuggles, playtime, and plenty of one-on-one attention. I specialize in senior pets, special needs animals, and those who just need a little extra TLC. Whether your fur baby is shy, spunky, or somewhere in between, I take the time to understand their unique personality and needs. You can expect: Regular updates with cute photos and notes A calm, nurturing environment A clean, safe space for play and rest Patience, reliability, and tons of love Experience with administering meds and handling special diets Think of me as your pet’s favorite extended family member, the one they’re always excited to see! Hope to meet your dog(s), cat(s), horse(s), etc soon! :) Pet care isn’t just part of my day. It is my day. From sunrise snuggles to sunset strolls, my entire routine revolves around the animals I care for. Whether I’m feeding breakfast to a sleepy pup, giving midday meds to a senior cat, or ending the evening with playtime and cuddles, every moment is planned with pets in mind. Caring for animals has been my lifelong passion, and I’ve built a lifestyle around making sure every pet in my care feels safe, loved, and understood. I’m always home or nearby, so your pet will never feel alone or neglected. This isn’t just a job to me. It’s who I am. When your pet stays with me, they become part of my heart and my home. The care I provide is 100% customized to whatever that pet's parents do as a routine with them. My goal is to make their stay with me as close to what they are used to as possible.

About: Dogs have been part of our lives for as long as we can remember. Gage was raised around dogs from a young age, his dad bred bullies, so he grew up learning canine behavior, body language, and daily care firsthand. After getting married, we added four dogs of our own, which deepened our passion for training, boarding, and understanding how dogs learn best. We have experience with dogs of all sizes and ages, including a Bull Mastiff, Pit/Lab mix, Rottweiler/Boxer mix, and a Boxer. Large breeds, high-energy dogs, and gentle seniors are all welcome here. Because we only take 1–2 dogs at a time, every dog receives individualized attention, structure, and love - never overcrowded, rushed, or overlooked. We own a small business offering guided boat tours, fishing trips, and jet ski rentals, which allows us to maintain a very flexible schedule. Because of this, we carefully manage our calendar and only accept bookings when we’re fully available to focus on your dog. We both work from home, so your pup will never be left alone for long periods. Our days are built around consistent routines, supervision, and companionship. Whether your dog enjoys playtime, lounging, or simply being near their people, we’re able to provide a calm, attentive presence throughout the day. Our home is a quiet, structured, and comfortable environment designed to feel like home - not a kennel. Since we only care for 1–2 dogs at a time, dogs enjoy supervised play, outdoor breaks, and plenty of downtime without stress or chaos. Crates are never required unless your dog prefers one. We even have a spare bedroom where one of us sleeps with your dog, so they don’t have to sleep alone or in a cage. Safety, routine, and comfort are always our top priorities, and we treat every dog as if they were our own.

Very pleased with Cyndi. She welcomed our 2 Beagles with opened arms. We felt so comfortable and relaxed when we were leaving them for a day stay. We would definitely use her again with no hesitation, and would highly recommend her to all. Thank you Cyndi for making our day relaxing and knowing our pups were in great hands.

About: I’ve taken care of animals for as long as I can remember. When I was a little girl I would always help take care of my animals with my mother. I used to live on a farm and I have had experience with many different pets/animals. I have experience with dogs, cats, reptiles, farm animals and small animals. I also have experience with bathing, trimming nails, cleaning ears, and expressing anal glands. I can also administer medications. This is my full time job so I can do my very best to accommodate anyone who needs a pet sitter who truly cares about their pets. My wife and daughters help me sometimes as well. Our daughters are also knowledgeable in pet care from getting hands on experience through me. My wife just come with me every where I stay for Moral support. 💕 I have a fully privacy fenced in yard. If the pet is in a home without fence I will be sure to leash walk your pet for safety reasons. If your pet feels comfortable in a crate feel free to bring it. Also if there is a special toy, bed or something they enjoy or prefer they can bring it along for their stay.

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life. We grew up with a small farm, horses, cows, chickens, bunnies, guinea pigs dogs cats you name it we’ve had it. To be honest, I enjoy animals more than people most times but I’m retired and find It’s very boring so I would love to have something to keep me busy.. I can come to your home or you can bring your pets to mine. I have a fenced in yard lots of room for them to run. I am retired and have lots of time on my hands. I would love to take care of your fur baby and give them lots of love I have a fenced in yard. I do have a small Shih Tzu. He’s very friendly loves people and dogs only thing he bites is lizards.

Samantha took excellent care of Jette, my husky/malamute mix. She was attentive, reliable, and clearly comfortable handling a high-energy breed. I appreciated the updates and felt completely at ease knowing Jette was in good hands. Would happily book again!

I have had Bailey stay with Tifany and her family a couple of times, and each time she has ensured that Bailey felt right at home with her other pups! Tifany makes sure her home is clean and dog friendly. Tifany has an outdoor area also ready for the dogs to play and have fun. If they get dirty, Tifany washes them so they come home clean as well as exhausted. She communicates regularly throughout your dog’s stay with pictures and updates. I definitely recommend Tifany and her husband!

Not only will your pet be treated as their own family, you will also get constant videos and pictures of your pets well being. I highly recommend this sitter for anyone that wants a trustworthy individual that will take care of your pet.

Was very nervous about trying to find someone to puppy sit with my crazy schedule. Taylor was very good at communicating and making me feel at ease about Leia being there. Leia took to her and her pack right away and had the best day!!! She slept all night long ? will definitely be using her again ans again. Thank you Taylor ?

Wonderful sitters, Bill and Krista. My wife and I had to drive from California and needed to board our five small furry ones for an afternoon while we secured housing. Bill is a gracious host with a beautiful back yard and his love for animals is very evident. Can’t go wrong with these guys. Will be using their services again.

They get to go inside and outside plus Lorraine sends you pictures. Her house is clean and she is attentive to the dogs. Much better than leaving them at a kennel
