“I cant say enough positive things about Joy. Her caring attitude, quick responses, and most importantly flexibility with our schedule made for a flawless stay. Joy came to us for the meet and greet and not only picked up, but was also able to drop off our dog at the end of the stay, which made our trip away 100x easier. Our dog got to play with hers and Joy sent us pictures of the two of them playing and cuddling throughout the weekend. We felt so safe knowing our pup was with her, and never hesitated letting her come into our house without us there. We had a wonderful experience and will use her again!”

About: I genuinely love and care for every pet I spend time with. I know how much our furry family members mean to us, so I treat each one like my own. I’ve cared for playful puppies who need extra exercise and consistency, as well as senior pets who just want comfort, companionship, and a gentle pace. I’m big on keeping routines so pets feel safe and at home. My schedule is the definition of FLEXIBLE! This is my full time job so I don’t mind odd schedules or accommodating any needs. Feel free to ask away for whatever routine you may need I care for pets with love, attention, and plenty of playtime. Whether in my home or yours, I follow their routines, make sure they’re fed, walked, and comfortable. I’ve been trained by an OCD (amazing) girlfriend so my attention to detail and cleanliness is as good as it comes.

“I am so happy I found Mikayla and her family, as they are amazing with our dog. Benny enjoys lots of playtime with their son and dog Archie, and is treated like family. Benny is excited to visit their home and returns relaxed and happy. Mikayla’s home is clean, organized, and we feel comfortable knowing he is being well cared for while we are away. Mikayla communicates well and sends daily pictures and videos. She is contentious and does not hesitate to reach out regarding any questions. Mikayla and her family are our go to sitter. We appreciate the family atmosphere and that she does not accept multiple bookings at the same time. Benny really is home away from home with Mikayla’s family.”



“Marlize was very prompt in responding and setting up a meet and greet. She took the time to chat with me during the meet and greet and let my dog, Miles explore his temporary home, and I felt very comfortable with leaving my dog with her. During Miles' stay, she sent photos and updates - took him on walks and playing in the yard. I was very confident that she took great care of him, especially since I had some concerns with his food aggression and him being a large breed dog. I definitely recommend Marlize - she has a huge yard, she is very experienced and knowledgeable about animal care, and very accommodating!”


“Katherine did a wonderful job caring for my dog Halo in her home. She was flexible when I needed to change the meet and greet to a video call, and she let me come inside and make my dog as comfortable as I could when dropping her off. She has great energy and I knew my dog would like her. This was even more clear when I picked up my dog and she was obviously happy and well taken care of. Katherine updated me every time I asked about Halo and said I could text as much as I liker, which I really appreciated. My dog is clearly just as happy and healthy as always after almost 10 days with Katherine. I would absolutely ask her to board my dog again. 10/10 recommend!”


About: Hi! I'm a stay-at-home mom of four and a proud dog mom to three wonderful pups. Our home is always full of love, play, and plenty of tail wags! With years of hands-on experience caring for both children and dogs, I’ve mastered the art of patience, nurturing, and staying on top of everyone’s needs—furry or not. I understand how important it is to feel confident and comfortable leaving your pet with someone, and I treat every dog in my care like part of the family. Whether it’s playtime in the yard, cozy nap sessions, or sticking to special routines and diets, I’m here to provide a safe, happy, and loving environment while you're away. Let me give your pet a home-away-from-home (or in your home) experience that’s filled with attention, affection, and fun! As a stay-at-home mom, I have the flexibility to provide full attention and care to your pet, while seamlessly fitting it into my daily routine. My schedule is built around the needs of my children and pets, allowing me to offer personalized care for your furry friend—whether that’s for walks, playtime, or just cuddles. With summer break upon us, my time becomes even more flexible. My kids are home and ready to help with extra pet care tasks, making it easy for me to accommodate more visits, longer walks, or additional time for special needs. Whether you need care during the day or overnight stays, I can ensure your pet is well taken care of, while balancing everything with the care and attention they deserve. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities, whether they’re staying in my home or yours. While I don’t have a fenced-in yard, I take extra precautions to ensure your pet is always safe while outside. I supervise all outdoor play and walks closely to prevent any mishaps, creating a secure environment where your pet can enjoy the fresh air without worry. In my home, I maintain a pet-friendly space, ensuring that areas are safe and comfortable for all pets, with a quiet, and peaceful atmosphere when needed. When caring for your pet in your home, I follow all your guidelines, routines, and instructions to maintain consistency. I respect your home and the trust you place in me, offering daily updates and being fully present to attend to your pet’s needs. I also make sure the environment is secure, keeping your pet safe from potential hazards. You can count on me to provide not just love and attention, but a trustworthy, safe, and reliable experience, so you can feel completely confident leaving your pet in my care.

“Ebony communicated well, shared frequent pics of our dogs, and let them out often. She met with us at a dog park beforehand so our dogs weren’t staying with a complete stranger. Only consideration is that if your dog struggles with stairs, her living area is up a steep flight of stairs so they may struggle with that.”


About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was a little girl and I’ve always loved it! I’ve always had dogs(puppies-senior) I’ve had rabbits and cats and a horse too I’m a full time stay at home mom, so I have plenty of time to have the animals outside to play and use the bathroom. I have two dogs myself, they get fed every morning and treats throughout the day (my kids love giving treats) they always have food and water available My dogs roam free since they know the property, but my whole back yard is fenced in. When I leave my house, my dogs stay inside and roam the house freely

“Our baby had the best time! We were updated through her stay and felt like we made the right choice. Bonnie was attentive and very understanding when we had travel delays out of our control. We will definitely be rebooking!”


“I can't say enough nice things about our doggies stay with Lyndsey! We were on a road trip and needed a place for our doggies to stay while we did some of the non-doggie activities in the Red River Gorge. Lyndsey went out of her way to accommodate our needs while we enjoyed the area! She is kind, thoughtful, and considerate. Provided great communication and updates! Our doggies had a great time with her and I would highly recommend her to care for your pets!”


About: I have taken car of animals all my life, max 4 dogs in one household. I have been with Four Paws Dogs(service dogs) , small dogs, pit bulls and etc. No cats I’m highly allergic. Pick up shifts the days I’m not scheduled for work, varies each week. My schedule for work is given to me by the whole month. I will make sure the dog doesn’t come in with mud on their feet and is given a lot of attention while you are away from home.

“Gloria was amazing with my Riley! I contacted her super last minute due to an emergency and she was very willing to accommodate our needs- she even gave him a bath! I cannot recommend her enough. We’ll be booking again with Gloria!”


About: Dogs aren’t just pets—they’re family, and that’s exactly how I’ll treat yours. I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have hands-on experience with both playful puppies and seasoned seniors. As a full-time sitter, your dog will get my full attention with frequent walks, fun adventures, and plenty of love and playtime in my yard. I’ll make sure your pup feels safe, happy, and right at home—because when they’re with me, they’re part of the family. As someone who stays home full-time and only works a few days a week, pet care naturally fits into my daily life. I have plenty of time, flexibility, and energy to give each pet personalized attention—whether that means morning walks, medication schedules, playtime in the yard, or just cozy companionship throughout the day. Your pet won’t be left alone or on a tight schedule—they’ll be part of a calm, loving home where their needs come first. When caring for pets in your home, I treat your space with respect and maintain your pet’s familiar environment to reduce stress. I stick to their usual schedule, including meals, medications, and playtime, while providing companionship and supervision. Whether at your home or mine, your pet’s well-being and happiness are my top priorities.

About: Growing up, I took the most responsibility for caring for our family German Shepherd. Her name was Daisy and I was responsible for teaching her how to sit and stay, we went on daily walks when the weather was nice and even though she was considered a family pet she was mine. I do not have training skills past basic household tricks but I have plenty of love to give. I don’t have much of a set routine at work. I am technically full-time, but my schedule varies drastically from week to week. This is why I have my booking two weeks in advance so I can plan accordingly. Other than my job, I am a homebody. I do love being outside and going for walks/hikes when the weather is nicer. I’m very courteous and if you leave specific instructions for your home, I will follow them to a T. As for my own home, I have two cats that have free range over every room. I have no plants at all (let alone anything that would be dangerous for animals), a water fountain that’s plugged up for continuous running water, and three litter boxes throughout the home. I am more equipped for cats when it comes to toys, scratching post/cat trees and treats.

About: I have trained and taken care of dogs of all ages and sizes! Im able to keep up with their energy and provide them with the best care! I work part time so I have plenty of time to take care of your dogs! I also live in the middle of the city so anywhere in the area isn’t too far for me! I have a fenced yard and a dog and cat that both love other animals. I also don’t mind to make the drive to your home if your pets are more comfortable that way!

Keyara H.
“Keyara has been an incredible caregiver for my dog, Luna, and I can’t say enough about how thankful I am for her. From the moment they met, Luna took to her instantly — which says a lot, since she’s usually shy around new people. Keyara quickly learned Luna’s routine, from her favorite walking paths to how she likes her food prepared, and always made sure she felt comfortable, safe, and loved. She sent regular updates, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Her attention to detail, patience, and genuine love for animals truly set her apart. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my furry family member!”
