“Paul took great care of our two puppies while we were on vacation! He sent multiple updates daily with pictures, and they were extremely well cared for. We never had to worry about them, and we were able to enjoy our vacation! I would leave my pets with Paul anytime!!”
“We were concerned leaving our furbables with "anyone", but were very satisfied with Christa. Her communication was great as well. It's a relief that we could travel again and not worry about their care. We had one senior Chewy (18) with challenges and needed someone to stay in house and Chtista exceeded expectations.”
“Adrianne was a great pet sitter. She confirmed quickly and set up a meet and greet. My Cavapoo gave her hugs and kisses as soon as she arrived. He likes longer walks and she was awesome to explore nearby trails and parks with him. Adrianne is personable and professional.”
“Faith was absolutely wonderful with our Bruno!! This was a longer vacation for us from the other times we’ve had Faith watch Bruno. Everything went extremely well and we were able to relax and enjoy our vacation without any worries about how Bruno was doing. Faith kept us informed with photos and texts every day about how Bruno was doing. He truly bonded with Faith. Bruno is a Shiba Inu and that says a lot about how well Faith interacts with dogs as this breed is generally very aloof. The house was spotless and clean when we came home. I would highly recommend Faith to watch your pets. I can’t say that enough. We will continue to have her watch Bruno and use her services for both overnight stays and walks when we may be gone for a long day. Excellent excellent job!! Thank you Faith!!”
About: I’ve always had animals growing up! I’ve done in-house pet sitting for years. I’ve taken care of dogs as big as mastiffs to puppies. I have also done in home sitting for cats and horses as well! We have two dogs in our home and 1 cat. I am able to do house sitting depending on my husbands schedule. During the fall especially October and November I am usually gone on the weekends for deer hunting. My husband would be home and available for boarding during that time! I am currently working full time during the week 7:30-4. My husband works from home on Wednesdays and Fridays as well and is able to assist with your pets needs! I am available weekdays before and after work. Drop off/Pick up on Monday, Tuesday and Thursdays must be after 4:30 as we are both in the office those days. On Wednesday and Friday's my husband Charlie works from home and is available all day for drop off/pick up. I am also available weekends for all your animals needs! I currently have a 6 year old female lab, a 4 month old puppy, 1 cat and a horse. Growing up I have had experience with many types of dog breeds and cats! I also have experience with giving pets oral medications.
About: I’ve grown up with big dogs my entire life. I’m not afraid of any dog and am willing to accommodate to any of their needs since both of my dogs currently require individual care for their medical needs! I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of time to care for your pups!! Weekends I am also pretty free since I’m not in school currently and off for the summer! I have 2 dogs myself and I get up with them in the mornings, let them out, feed them, and play with them every morning. I usually then in the afternoon take them out again for an afternoon potty break and play with them outside again. Finally, around 5, I will feed both of them and take them on a nightly walk. I also love to cuddle with my dogs at home and give them lots of treats!!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 8. I have had dogs in my household and taken care of friends, family, and neighbors dogs. I also have experience working at a breeder with just born puppies and small dogs alike. I am currently working part time so I have time to play and take dogs for walks! I also am a track and field runner and staying active is my favorite! I am available mostly during weekdays but can only work a few weekends here and there depending on the situation. At my house we do have an electric fence for our two dogs so they stay in the yard and don’t run out on the street. If at a clients home they don’t have a fence I will use leashes to ensure their safety and my safety. I am able to crate dogs if need be. My two fur balls at my house are two mini golden doodles and love to play with other dogs. Labs, beagles, Pomeranians you name it they get along with it. I have a welcoming environment in my home with toys, beds, coaches, treats, and cuddles!!
“Courtney did an amazing job taking care of our Germans Shepherd. She was easy to communicate with and sent us videos and pictures of Elsa while we were gone. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing Elsa was in good hands. I would highly recommend Courtney to care for your fur babies.”

Emily & Charles W.
“HIGHLY recommend !!!!! Not only has Emily has dogs and cats most of her life, she has had some special needs dogs, and a geriatric dachshund that required a lot of extra care for heart disease and seizures. Emily has taken care of our 3 dogs and cat (2 little rescues, a shepherd, and a feisty calico) many times. She loves them like they are her own.”
Julianna M.
“Julianna is just a natural with pets. She’s grown up with large dogs. We have two currently and the bond she has with them both is unmistakable. Our rescue dog came to us with anxiety and lack of confidence. He’s done fabulous because of Julianna’s love, and is her sleepover buddy whenever she’s home from college. He will only do sleep overs with her I’ll add. Our dogs both clearly respect her as a “pack leader”. She knows exactly how to establish boundaries and discipline for their behavior. She also is highly attentive with any home based medical needs that come up - ear drops, first aid care of cuts, scratches, etc. She provides baths, no small task given their sizes and energy! I trust and have total confidence always in Julianna with our dogs. I’ve learned much from her even! She’s fantastic with pets and anyone will be very fortunate to have her for their Rover caretaker.”
Jenna S.
