About: Our family has always included pets. I will be incomplete without them. I have foster and rescue many cats. And I have trained our dogs for service work. All of this has provided me with unique knowledge about grooming, behavior, breeds specific, and training for animals. I'm excited to offer your pet the same level of care than ours. I respect pets like a family member. And through this sitting I am hoping to grow our resources to keep giving back to shelters and other pets in need. I am are currently working from home. And spend my days inside. So your pet will have company 24/7. My family have a very quiet lifestyle and will accommodate to any routine necessary. I offer personalized environment for our sitting pets. Since we have the space, if you have a shy pet they can be in a quite room by themselves and be accompanied as they like. Or if is playful it can hang around playing with our kittens. We do leave them the first night in their own space to accommodate. And if you like we can transition them into the general space.
“Kaley and her family are incredible. My little buddy comes home so happy after spending the day at her home. He gets to play, meet new friends, and get the love he deserves. I couldn't be more grateful. If you're trying to decide where to leave your furry friend, her home is definitely the place for you :)”
About: I've grown up with dogs my whole life, including raising puppies and caring for dogs with special needs. I'm an avid dog lover and will take great care of your best friend. We have a large fenced yard and home with cool tile for those hot summer months. Your dog will be well cared for, played with, and loved on!! There is always an adult, either myself or my wife, present in the home so your furry loved one will always have company and never be alone. We have plenty of toys, lots of room, and love to play with dogs. We have a fully fenced yard, large indoor space with air conditioning and cool tile, filtered cold water on demand, lots of toys to play with and are diligent with following any special instructions/schedules you may have.

About: I've done rover in the past, but have also cared for friends and family members pets on my spare time. I just love animals and looking to spend more time around different pets before I might work in a shelter. I currently work part time so I am very flexible on when I can help take care of your pets! I can't wait to meet them. I have a fenced yard, one dog and one cat. My dog is crated when we aren't home, which isn't often, but for her safety, she tends to chew things up when she's alone.
About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong dog lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pups of all shapes and sizes. Growing up, my dad was a breeder, so I learned early on how to properly care for and understand dogs. Over the years, neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to look after their furry companions while they’re away—and I treat each one like my own. Whether your pup needs long walks, playtime, or just some cozy cuddles, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, loved, and entertained while you’re gone. I also have a sweet and friendly 5-year-old yorkie mix named Max who absolutely loves meeting new dog friends! Your pet’s health and safety are my top priority, so I kindly ask that all pets be up to date on their vaccinations. I can’t wait to meet your fur baby and give them all the attention they deserve! I work from home full time so I will have plenty of time to take care of your pet. Potty breaks , food, play time and nap time and walks all fit in between my schedule. I live in a gated complex which has one dog park. There are also 3 other parks in my community- these are within a quarter mile radius.
“Jessica’s the best! I drop my dog off twice a week for 12 hours at a time and he always gets so excited to go. She takes him on trails sometimes, but he’s also just so happy being at her house with her and her dogs. They play a lot! I also love the cute pictures and videos she se sends throughout the day!”
“I just got my first puppy and started taking him to Stacia’s. She’s very responsive and takes very good care of Charlie. I will be using her many more times in the future!!!”
“Thank you so much Brent & David for taking care of Flaco! Your love and caring for Flaco was exceptional; he was very happy when we picked him up every night.”
About: This girl. I'm that person at your party that spends the whole night playing with your dog instead of socializing. And while it doesn't win me friends, it makes me a great dog sitter for your pup. I've got two little guys of my own, Chachi and Mac. I love rescues (and really all dogs tbh) and both my husband and I work from home so we spend a lot of time together. I believe that as much as dogs need food, water, and bathroom breaks, they need attention and love, as well. So, that means I'll be making sure your pets meet their maslow's hierarchy of dog needs. And if those needs include a lot of pets, playing, and occasional treats--I'm your man. I work from home and make my own hours so am available to work around your schedule. Please provide as much advance notice as possible and account for proximity when booking. While I have a fenced backyard, it isn't very large. I don't recommend large excitable dogs that need a lot of outdoor space to stay here. Additionally, as stated before, I have two small dogs. All dogs staying my house MUST BE FRIENDLY.
“Amazing Dog Sitter! She's so flexible and helpful, she is a fantastic communicator and I feel comfortable leaving my baby with her any time. Sunny was always excited to go see Brittany and Rocko! It was like having a friend love my dog for me when I couldn't. Definitely recommend!”
