“We could not have had a better experience with Stephen watching our yellow lab, Odie, while we were away on vacation. From the moment we confirmed the reservation, Stephen was incredibly meticulous and thoughtful in his planning. He wanted to meet ahead of time to go over every detail, and we actually met twice before we left because he truly wanted to make sure everything was covered. That level of care and professionalism immediately put us at ease. While we were away, Stephen sent us updates and pictures every single morning. Not once did we feel anxious or worried about Odie being away from us because Stephen gave us complete reassurance the entire time. We always knew Odie was in great hands. Stephen is kind, gentle, professional, and clearly loves dogs. You can see it in the way he communicates with them and with their owners. He treated Odie with so much patience and care, and it meant the world to us to know our dog was being loved and cared for while we were gone. I truly could not recommend Stephen more highly. Whether you are considering having him stay in your home or boarding your dog with him, you absolutely cannot go wrong. Your dog will be loved, cared for, and treated like family, and you will love Stephen just as much as your dog does.”

“Mary is ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ten plus stars! She was a very attentive loving honest caretaker of our 2 pugs & kitty. Mary attended to their needs daily especially our pug Simon and his very important heart medication. Mary went above and beyond and we highly recommend her to care for your pets!! 🩷 We will definitely have Mary come stay with our pets again in our home. Thanks 😊 Mary!!! Xoxo Bronson Simon & Boots 🩷”

“Evangeline was terrific! She watched over our home and our beloved Airedale, Archie, like he was her very own. Stayed in contact and handled the little things that popped up. A terrific lady and and all-pro service!”

“Kianna was wonderful! This was our first time leaving our dog Axle behind while we went on vacation. He's very hyper and jumps on new people so we needed to find someone that could handle him and help with training. We were so lucky to find Kianna! She does dog training and has experience with hyper dogs, and she lived only a few minutes away from us, so it worked out perfectly. She followed Axle's schedule and his routine and kept us posted with photos. Axle was so happy to make a new friend! Kianna will be our first choice next time we go on vacation!”

“Bethany did a wonderful job with our dogs. One of our dogs is known to be uppity and Bethany was patient with her. She finally won her over after several days which is quite an accomplishment. Bethany communicated well with pics and video often over the two weeks. We truly appreciate her care and attention to our animals and our home.”

“Rachel did a great job caring for my dog Mia while we were away for 10 days. We received daily updates and communication was quick and easy. Our house was also returned to us exactly as we left it. Definitely recommend!”

“My dog decided to be difficult the day that Kathleen was pet sitting for us. She would not let her leash her, but Kathleen was consistent and gained her trust and was eventually able to leash her. Kathleen was wonderful with my dogs and I would highly recommend her.”


“Whitney is wonderful! Her excellent communication, punctuality and competence along with her friendly and kind personality provided me with complete peace of mind to leave my animals for a work conference. My dog and cats loved her; highly recommend!”

“Chelsea is amazing! She took such great care of our Lucy and put our minds at ease. Last time we left our girl she had bad separation anxiety and this time with Chelsea when we got home she didn’t even act like she missed us. Chelsea was great sent us updates and pictures multiple times a day. Lucy loved her! We are so thankful we found Chelsea and highly recommend her!!”

About: I grew up on a farm caring for all kinds of animals, from bottle-feeding puppies and kittens to walking and grooming dogs of every size. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me for years to care for their pets like my own. I’m comfortable with animals of all temperaments and offer walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting for any pet. For boarding, I only accept cats and small dogs, who stay in a quiet, cozy part of my home where they can relax stress-free and get plenty of attention. I’m currently a college student taking online classes, so I spend most of my time at home. My flexible schedule means I can give your pets plenty of attention throughout the day! I’m available for walks and drop-ins most weekdays and weekends, open for boarding or extended stays. I accept cats and small dogs for boarding in a quiet, comfortable part of my home. The space is separate from other areas, so pets can relax without stress or noise. I keep things calm and clean, with soft beds, fresh water, and a peaceful atmosphere. I can crate dogs if needed, follow feeding or medication instructions exactly, and make sure every pet feels safe and loved — just like my own.
About: I have loved dogs since adopting my rescue dog when I was a child. Ever since then I have learned a lot about being a pet owner! I can walk, bathe, play with, feed, and love on your sweet fur babies! I am also able to administer medicine if needed & I am open to learning any special care your pet may need! I was previously a veterinary assistant for 2 years, and have a bachelors in Animal Science. I have taken care of many of my neighbors animals, including cats and dogs all sizes. I can change litter and love on cats as well! I am able to go on long walks and I love to be outside and active with pets. I also love fetch! I have a flexible schedule most days and reliable transportation every day. I can’t wait to meet your pups!! I work full time, but have flexible mornings Tuesday and Thursday, and shortened days Wednesday and Fridays. My weekends are typically open and I am happy to do overnight stays. I don’t accept pets in my home, due to living in an apartment. I am happy to come to your home where your fur baby already feels safe and comfortable!
