“Anna was great! I couldn’t have been happier with choosing her. This was my first time using a day care and she accepted me last minute. My Tator is only 4 months and he enjoyed socializing. She made me feel comfortable and sent me updates of my Tator! She is amazing! 🙌🏽 I am over joyed with this stay.”


“We had a fantastic experience with Mariah and her husband! I reached out just a day before our first visit, and they were incredibly kind and flexible in accommodating us on such short notice. From the moment we arrived, they were warm, welcoming, and clearly passionate about caring for dogs. Our pup Ace immediately felt at home — he was full of tail wags and smiles, happily playing with their friendly dogs when we picked him up. It was such a relief to know he was in such a loving and safe environment while we were away. Highly recommend Mariah to anyone looking for a trustworthy, kind, and attentive sitter. We’ll absolutely be booking with her again in the future!”


“Families that love their fur babies, you MUST choose Team Ana and Byron. They are OUTSTANDING! Tootie LOVED them and most importantly, they LOVED Tootie while I was away. I wish I had them in Iowa. Thank you both for a WONDERFUL experience.”

“Kaneishia was amazing!! She sent pictures and updates multiple times throughout the day. She genuinely cared and loved my puppy like it was her own. I will be rebooking with her!”


About: I love animals. I started walking dogs when I was 10. Friends and family rely on me to watch their pets, when needed. I’ve yet to meet a dog that doesn’t love me. I am retired so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups. I am available most of the time except when I’m visiting my grandkids or traveling. I can walk your dog as often as needed. I enjoy playtime but if your fur baby doesn’t, they can sit and watch tv with me.


About: For the past ten years, I've had the privilege of working with a diverse range of canine and feline companions, from energetic puppies and kittens to serene senior dogs and cats. My approach is always rooted in patience and love, ensuring every animal feels comfortable and cared for. I have extensive experience in administering medications, a testament to my ability to handle sensitive situations with gentleness and precision. My dedication extends to understanding the unique needs of each animal, fostering a trusting and supportive environment for all. I’m currently working from home and have a lot of flexibility to provide pet sitting in my home , dog walking and drop in visits. I have a gated yard. I can crate your furry friend if needed. I always use a Lesh when walking. I will follow your pet schedules just the way you would at home. I will provide plenty of one on one play time. I am constantly sanatizing and cleaning my home to keep your fur baby safe

About: I love to spend time with them , I like to play with them, I like to take them to the park. I will always keep them on a leash. I can teach them some tricks, sit , stay roll over. I can take them out every two hours, to go potty. I can keep them over night. I took care of a one eye cat, I took care of a blind dog. I have had dogs in diapers. I took care of a Yorkshire, who was pregnant, she went into labor at my house, and my mom and I delivered three little babies they came out every forty minutes. We help clean the babies, and my dog Chuckie helped to. Give them kisses, hugs.

“My lil Rara had the BEST time with Tasha. I am so happy she felt so comfortable with her. I really appreciate the pics and how she took extra good care of Rara. I definitely recommend Tasha.”


“My dog had a great time with Kartier and her family- she didn't want to leave! We got some adorable photos of her playtime. Kartier's house has a good sized backyard so our high-energy dog got plenty of exercise.”


About: I grew up surrounded by animals, therefore I am conscious of how to care for dogs in any situation and in any type of weather and/or environment. When I'm on the go, I make sure to have a well-packed bag with treats(let me know what your dog's favorite treat is), potty bags, water bottles, sanitizer, and a travel-size first aid kit. I make sure to clean up thoroughly after breakfast, snack, and dinner time. I make all sorts of checklists so if you like to have things done a certain way, make as many lists as you want or need. I'm open to receive any and all constructive criticism. Feel free to leave any other comments, questions, concerns. I look forward to meeting your dog and work with you!

“Rachel was amazing. I received so many pictures. My pup was well taken care of. I would recommend Rachel to anyone who wants a safe comfortable animal lover to care for their pets.”



About: No one likes to choose favorites, but let's face it, beloved animals definitely get all my hugs and kisses! I love being outdoors, being active, and spending time with my favorite companions. I have volunteered at humane societies, and have even scooped up my favorite pals from rescue shelters. I have reunited 11 dogs with their families after being lost! I am also professionally skilled in dog walking from past experiences. During that time I was a house sitter, dog trainer, and I was responsible for strict feeding and medication policies from owners, always making sure the animal was safe and happy during my visits. When able, I love taking them on adventures! I believe a dog's favorite treat is a walk and it just so happens to be my favorite as well! My availability is customized to your needs, and I look forward to working with you and your furry friends! My schedule is home based and very flexible! Your pet's care, including multiple walks, or possible adventures, their feeding, play time, rest, and comfort all come first! I have a fenced in yard and cameras throughout my home to ensure your pet's safety! There may be other client's dogs with us, but every pet is always highly supervised to ensure happy play times!

About: Hello fur parents! I have been a fur mama for more than a decade and have watched many dogs and cats since I could remember. I'm a current proud owner of an American Bully, the most sweetest and gentle giant of a dog she is. She loves all dogs and cats and is very good around them. I give constant attention to any dogs or cats under my care. To the point where they will get spoiled with love. When they are in my care I treat them as if they are my own babies. I work overnight shifts during the week, which means my days are free to spend quality time with your fur babies. I’m very hands-on and love staying active with pets. Plus, my significant other works from home, so there’s always someone present to give your pets the care and attention they deserve. I have a good size fenced backyard for the dogs to roam around and play. I do have a dog play pen to separate dogs if needed. I'm great with first aid, medication and care for your loved one. My dog is not crated and she likes to roam around and usually just lays in her bed or on the couch. Your fur babies are more than welcome to sleep on the dog beds that we have and on our comfy couch too! I like to wipe my dogs paws after every walk or play outside and I would do the same to your dog. Please let me know if your dog doesn't like their paws to be touched. If I do have to leave the house for like an errand I always have a camera to keep watch on. I love to send pictures and video updates of your fur babies and make sure they are well taken care of.

I offer a safe and engaging environment with a spacious, fully fenced-in backyard for playtime and fresh air. I even have a cozy catio for feline guests who enjoy some sunshine and birdwatching!

No matter where the care takes place, I focus on creating a loving, low-stress experience where pets feel secure, seen, and genuinely cared for
