“Christopher was our first pet sitter and he exceeded all of our expectations. He kept our puppy busy and happy while we were away. We also got updates and photos practically daily which was so encouraging! We couldn’t have had a better experience.”
“Kelli was great! Her home is built for dogs with a fenced in backyard and a bucket of toys! She sent lots of photos and had great communication. We already have our next stay booked!”
“I was so happy to see that my Jack was just like he was at home. He had fun. I loved all the videos and pictures and I can’t wait to see him. Thank you guys very very much.”
“I was so happy I chose her for my puppies caretaker. She said he didn’t have any accidents while in her care (still potty training). He was happy for sure and snored on the way home. Rebecca was very nice and funny and seemed to love my pup as well as her husband”
“Patty was absolutely wonderful with out pup, Penny! She sent plenty of cute pictures so we knew she was well cared for. I think she has as much fun on her vacation as we did!”
About: I have taken care of animals and owned them pretty much my entire life. I dog sit all the time for family and friends, neighbors even. Or, I should say I did. I am very new to the area, just 1 month here. I used to were I came from. I would love to continue! I take my own animals on walks multiple times a day, they're very friendly and would love some company on their walks! I have a cat and a dog so I won't accept unfriendly animals for anything but walks either. I live in an apartment building, I go on 5-7 walks minimum a day with my dog and sometimes cat. We have many toys and play lots. The animals are my priority.
“Melissa and Phil are dog sitters extraordinaire!!! Our dog Bennie settled right in with their two dogs, Dixie and Winnie. Bennie got lots o' love from Melissa and Phil too. Lots of pictures, updates and playtime. Thank you so much for the great care while we were gone!”
“Tyler was amazing! Great communication and so friendly. She kept me updated on my pup with pictures and I loved that he was able to make himself at home in her place. I know Zack was well taken care of!”
About: I’ve always been the go to friend/aunt to pet sit. I love all animals and would rather spend my free time hanging out with a fuzzy friend. I would loveeeeeeee to walk your dog! I currently work from home and would love a buddy to hangout with! I live close to the bike trail and many parks and would enjoy a furry friend to take walks with! If you are in need of someone to drop in, have a place for your pet to stay or just a companion for your friend to take walks with I am the one you are looking for!
“We had our pup Parker stay with Alex and Nic for a week while we were away. I was more worried about how Parker would do with them rather than how they would do with Parker! Even after Parker bolted through the screen on their door, they agreed to watch him :) Parker was well taken care of and Alex kept us updated with texts and pictures throughout his stay. We will definitely be using them again! Thank you guys!”
“Michelle was exceptional. We were in a last minute bind and found Michelle on Rover and Michelle’s Muddy Paws LLC. She provided exceptional care for our 5 yr old Springer Spaniel, Scarlett. Scarlett enjoyed her daily walks in the woods, the special TLC of the fam, and the comfort of having such awesome doggies companions. I would use her services anytime and highly recommend.”
About: What sets me apart as a sitter is the level of care, patience, and attention I give to every animal. I treat every pet like they’re my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable in my care. I have experience with a wide range of pets, including high-energy puppies that need consistent training and structure, as well as senior pets who require a gentler approach, medication management, and extra support. I’m attentive to routines, great at reading animal body language, and I always prioritize clear communication with pet parents—so they feel at ease knowing their pet is in good hands. Whether it’s reinforcing training, giving medications, or simply offering companionship, I tailor my approach to each animal’s needs and personality. I work full time during the week. I work until 1pm on Friday and am only looking to board during the weekend as of right now (Friday-Sunday) I have a fenced In yard, plenty of tennis balls and black lab that loves to play! Our dog does not stay in a crate at night so if this is an issue please provide one. We do have a cat but she is harmless.
About: I know what it’s like to become soul bonded with an animal. I will take care of your fur babies just like I take care of mine. ♥️ I’m currently working part time, so I have plenty of time and energy to dedicate to your animal/s. Looking forward to hearing from you. Thank you! I can accommodate any needs your pet would have. I have a lot of free time on my hands, this would be just as helpful to me as it would be to you and your animals.
“Michelle was AMAZING with my pup! He loved her two doggos and didn’t want to leave ? She had consistent communication with me which I LOVED and she clearly loves any dog in her care! I will definitely be using her boarding again in the future and I know Little Dog can’t wait for his vacation with her family.”
