“Ashton was perfect. We came home to a very relaxed and happy dog. That is a surprise as he is usually quite anxious when we leave. Thanks Ashton”

“Michelle is my first and only choice when it comes to caring for my dogs. She treats your fur babies like they’re her own, giving them love, attention, and the best care while you’re away. Knowing they’re with her gives me complete peace of mind. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate.”

“This is the second time I have asked Kat to stay with my dog Zuzu. This time I was out of town for 10 days and *every day* Kat sent videos and pictures. She went above and beyond by sending pictures of bath time. One day, my dog had given herself a little hot spot and Kat informed me right away and sent a picture of the wound. Of course, Kat knew how to treat the wound and it healed up in a few days. Kat is so wonderful and she really knows her stuff! Also, she left my house completely spotless!”

“Shaira stayed over with our dog and was everything we could ask for when we are away. She was very communicative, gave updates and pictures through the stay, letting us know how it was going. We could see from the photos how comfortable and content our dog was with her. Don't ever hesitate when your pet is in Shaira's care.”

About: I know how to handle more energetic or anxious animals and can read animals behaviors very well. I have worked at multiple veterinary clinics through internships as a vet assistant. I now work at an animal shelter as a part of the medical team + animal care team. Due to this I am able to administer any medication or care to your pet. I work 5 days a week but only for around 6 hours per shift so the rest of the day I can spend with your animal and caring for them :) I have a very large yard, not fenced but I will walk your animal around it and spend time with them outside (leashed) so they get lots of wxercise and enrichment. I have multiple rooms in which your animal can roam so they don’t feel trapped + toys. Your pet will get lots of play time, cuddles, and attention based on their needs!

“They were excellent!!! Perfect amount of communication and photos. I knew my dog was very happy on her own vacation while I was on mine. Will rebook without hesitation.”

About: I have had dogs and other small animals since childhood. I also have a background in emergency medicine that can come in handy. I’m also currently working from home and have an extremely flexible schedule I work part time from home or can take my work with me. Making it easy to walk dogs and spend time with them throughout the day. I usually get in 3-5 miles daily. Making it easy to get dogs exercised. I have a fenced yard with one dog who is an incredible “host”. Not minding company. I also have the ability to rotate animals safely inside and out of the home if they are not happy together.

“Anissa was an AMAZING dog/house sitter. She was super communicative about the good and the bad. (Unfortunately my dog had an allergy flare up while I was gone and she noticed it immediately and let me know. She even researched some over the counter treatments and purchased the meds and administered them for me!) I really felt like she was in tune with my dogs and paid super close attention to their well being. Not only was she excellent to my dogs, I came home to an immaculate home. It was cleaner than it was when I left! She took such good care of my home, plants, and belongings. I will 100% have Anissa back the next time I'm out of town! THANK YOU ANISSA <3!”

“Nadia was excellent! She stayed at our house for 2 nights with our Labrador who has some anxiety. Our lab felt right at home with Nadia. She was also super respectful of home and left things very clean & neat. We will rebook in the future and appreciate all she did for us.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats my entire life and I house-sit/dog-sit as a part-time job, as well as work at two stables. I grew up with the responsibility of taking care of my own pets, so I enjoy taking care of other people’s animals! I pet sit for another company and for clients I know personally, so my schedule is updated as accurately as possible on my page- most weeks I’ll be available Mon/Tues/Thurs/Sat/Sun. I could possibly help with pets on Wednesdays and Fridays, but those are my scheduled work days. When my semester starts in September, I’ll be occupied Tues/Thurs. When I am chosen for whatever service you might need, I’ll be able to feed, let your dogs out, walk them/play with them, spend time with your cats, etc.! I’d like to know a day or two in advance, but I could possibly accept a same day booking. I take care of every animal like they’re my own; I’ve taken many dogs off the streets to find their owners. This is no different, your animal will be treated with respect and love while you’re away! I won’t be taking care of animals at my house (due to my own pets), but I would possibly be willing to do overnight stays at the client’s house if it’s a good fit.

“Christina and her daughter took a very last minute booking from me for my two pups when I had a family emergency. They were wonderful, as always. My girls absolutely love it when they stay with them! And I always feel so comfortable knowing they are with my girls and watching over my house. Great updates and communication.”

About: I am working on some pretty amazing updates. Additional outdoor yards are in the works, as well as a perimeter fence around the home property! I have also added Tracki to my collars. Tracki runs on global GPS (satellite feedback) and not cellular feedback, giving that extra security for your pups with no interruption in tracking! Bark & Barn is a privately insured in-home kennel that provides overnight and day boarding options as well as drop-in visits/walks for all pets, exotic included. I also provide optional training for dogs. I have five years of experience as a veterinary assistant in a high volume multi-species setting. With this, I have gained the knowledge, training, and experience in animal behavior as well as proper technique in safe animal hold, administering all forms of medication, administering emergency fluids, and animal CPR. Your pups will have access to multiple sections of my home, a fenced play yard, and walks over 120 acres of farm fields and streamed woods! I offer basic puppy training during board and day stays, including potty and crate training. I will gladly accept shark puppies, understanding completely how difficult these pups can be for many caretakers who are not experienced in their breed characteristics. I've worked with and owned dogs for over 17 years. I have a preference for high energy/high drive dogs, though I love all of them just the same. I am a farm mom of school aged children, work remotely, a full-time online student at KCC while my kids sleep, and have plenty of time to devote to your pets. I will follow strict biosecurity and safety measures. I am by no means a "doggy playcare". For their and my safety, I do not allow guest pups to interact together. I have sectioned off portions of my home and large basement for roam, and utilize sanitized in-home kennels for overnight and unattended times as well as movement of guests (inside, outside, walks, etc). I currently have full availability outside of school drop-off in the mornings and flexible pick-ups in the afternoon. I spend my free time caring for my own animals and attending online classes and seminars! I have a knack for social cues and when and how to approach. Discipline is and will always be reinforcement based. I have experience with reactive dogs and understand any dog can be reactive in the right setting, so meet and greets are a must! Our personal working dogs are not within the home's boundaries and remain with their flock at all times.

“Very responsive flexible and sent pics of my baby girl daily”

About: I have grown up with animals my whole life—from horses to guinea pigs and every animal in between—and I truly love them all. I know how special they are and how much they mean to us, and I would be honored to help give your sweet animals some of my love! I am all for the cuddles and the playful walks, and because I know it takes a lot of trust to share your pets, I promise to treat them as if they were my very own! While I work a day job that keeps me busy through the morning and early afternoon, I am fully open and dedicated to supporting your pets after 4:00 PM on weekdays, and completely available all day long on the weekends! Whether it's an afternoon walk, evening feeding, overnight care, or weekend fun, I'll make sure your furry family members get all the love, cuddles, and attention they need around my schedule. When caring for pets in your home, my priority is keeping them comfortable, safe, and happy in their own familiar environment. Whether I'm dropping by for a visit, taking them on a fun walk, or house sitting, I make sure their routine stays completely on track. From on-time feeding and plenty of potty breaks to lots of playtime and evening cuddles, I treat your pets and your home with the utmost respect and care—treating them just like my own family.

“Morgan stayed at my house & cared for my very demanding (spoiled) Cavalier KCS, betta fish & chameleon. I returned to a very clean, neat home & happy pets. I would recommend Morgan!”

“Arica has watched our two senior huskies twice now and she is just awesome! Our old boy requires lots of medications and has some special needs and she’s so kind and gentle with him, making sure he gets some walks around the yard. Our old girl is still spunky and is tricky to give a pill, but Arica was quick to understand the best method and had no issues. She sent pictures, updates, and my old fluffs were so relaxed and happy when we came home. She made sure our house was ready for us as well. I recommend Arica to anyone who wants their pups in good hands while away. She’s wonderful.”

About: As a pet owner (cats, dogs and hamsters), I am offering the same care I looked for when I had pet sitting needs—dependability and love for pets. I work full time remotely so I’m flexible during the week. I do travel with my job and many of my weekends are full. I will keep my schedule updated so times are known when I can help. I am willing to watch your dog or cat at your house. I currently have a friendly cat but he doesn’t understand not all dogs love him. If I watch your dog at my house, the dog would need to meet my cat first to make sure they are ok. I do have a fenced in yard.

“I highly recommend Jamie! I used her for dog/house sitting for a 3 day weekend and was very pleased with the care she took of both my dog and my home. I will definitely use her again in the future.”

“Krystal did a great job on short notice and took care of my babies, I like that she would take pictures and share them with me, extra special attention, thank you”

About: I have been around dogs for as long as I can remember! I have worked with dogs of all different sizes and breeds at a doggy day care, this includes having experience with puppies that needed training and senior dogs! I am currently working at a doggy daycare and am available on any weekday after 2 p.m. and any weekends at any time. My schedule is always flexible! I will always make sure your pet is cared for and loved! I will follow any direction/instructions you give me to ensure the safety of your furry best friend!
