“Breslin had a great time and was very tired afterwards. She also updated me throughout the day and made time to fit him into her schedule somewhat last minute. Will leave Breslin with her again if needed ?”


“Cindy has taken care of our dog a couple of times and did a fabulous job!! She was so attentive to her and took her for multiple walks. Thank you Cindy!!”


About: Growing up on a farm taught me to care for all animals with gentleness and respect. I have eperience training our puppy who is now 3 years old. I am all about rewards for positive behavior! I work remotely as an artist and I am a stay at home mom! My week days are very flexible since I make my own schedule. I am available Monday-Saturday anytime from 8-5, unless otherwise noted. I play interactive games with our dog and love taking her on long walks. Fun exercise is so good for dogs! I will do the same for your pups as I do my own.

“Michelle was AMAZING! We have a 3 month old puppy and she was truly incredible with him. We got tons of updates and lots of pictures and videos. I highly recommend using Michelle to watch your fur baby - I will definitely be using her again!”


“Dexter had a good time as usual with Sydney and of course she provided plenty of pics and videos during the day. So glad we found a place where Dexter is so comfortable. Definitely will be having her watch him again.”


“Our pups were well taken care of while they were with Ellen! We were able to see fun updates and pics throughout the day. We’ll definitely be booking her again.:)”


“Zi and Atti ( mini Aussie's) are now repeaters with Kaleigh and Conner. Both our puppies love them and their 2 mini Bichon's. They have a enclosed back yard which makes us feel super secure for their safety. Kaleigh and Conner take fantastic care of our babies, in which we are grateful. Extra bonus.... they love playing and socializing with their 2 doggies too. Highly recommend!”


“This was my first time entrusting anyone outside of family with Hazel’s care, and I am happy to say that Christina exceeded my expectations. I came home with one happy and well-taken care of pup. She was so kind and updates me very often, which was much appreciated!”


About: I’ve been around animals most of my life and am a dog owner myself. I love dogs and will care for yours as my own. I work from home and have plenty of flexibility for walks, attention and bathroom breaks during the day. My schedule is quite flexible, just let me know your preferences. I have a finished basement and a big yard with plenty of space for exercise. I can accommodate your preferences for your pet to have the best experience while you’re away.

“Heather took care of my 10 month old puppy for the day. She communicated well, sent me a couple pictures while he was there, took him for a walk, he played with her dogs and they had a great time. He was clearly happy and comfortable, well taken care of while I was gone. He was happy to see me but happy hanging out with her as well. He was struggling this past week or so with separation anxiety from his human brother and not finishing all of his food, but he ate all of his food Heather and seems back on track. So I would definitely use Heather again, and would recommend her to anyone needing a trustworthy person to care for their beloved pet family member. :) Thank you Heather! And thank you for dealing with his entrance of peeing on your rug immediately. I appreciate your kindness!!!!”


“Iche always loves hanging out with Ariel and his dogs. It’s awesome seeing the pictures and video clips of Iche socializing and having fun with other dogs. Since he’s not neutered other places will board or do human interaction only. I appreciate this opportunity for Iche! He will be back!”


About: I started fostering dogs back during COVID to help them find a their furever family, and now I want to help dog families, like my own, continue the getting care they need to where they feel safe when their owners are away. :) I am constantly taking care of my dog son Kobe, who I also fostered through the system way back when. He, as well as fostering other dogs, has given the experience I need to take care of your family too. I am familiar with dogs with anxiety, dogs with allergies, dogs that need medication and/or a little extra attention. Everyone needs love no matter what type of care, and I believe I can be like your friendly neighbor giving your furever family the care they need along with the safety and comfortability like a neighbor or friend. :) I have a fenced yard for your pet to run around, and also extra room space in case they need time to themselves. I can also take your dog on walks at a nearby park/rec center to get their extra energy out when needed.

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats my whole life, the last 13 years we have had 5 dogs and 2 cats in our home. Like most animals lovers we treat our animals like family, because they are. Three of our pups are seniors (12, 14 and 15 years old) that requires daily meds and special treatment. So I have no problems giving medications if needed. I have a passion for making sure each of our animals feel loved, appreciated and safe every single day. I'm available every single day, morning, noon or night, what ever your pets needs are, I'm here to help. Please contact me for your scheduling needs. We have a fenced in yard for our dogs to go outside and play as much as they want. Safety is no issue at our house.


About: I’m Alexis and I love dogs! There’s truly nothing better than our four-legged friends because of the unconditional loyalty and kindness they give. I believe we should give them all the same love and care because all pups deserve it! I wish I could have them all! They're such a blessing to us and all I want to do is see them happy. My earliest memory of a dog was when I was about three years old. We had a German Shepherd police K-9 who lived in our home named Magnum. I remember laying on him like a pillow on the floor and falling asleep in front of the fire. Around the same time, my dad and I went outside with Magnum to play in the snow. We built a little snowman and threw snowballs for Magnum to catch or bite into a cloud of powder! He was a huge, fluffy dog, but was the sweetest and most loving pup around! Big dogs have always held a special place in my heart. The only thing I don't like about dogs is that we lose them far too early. I prefer to take care of animals in your home due to the fact that I have five to six pets living there at any given time and I wouldn't want there to be any issues. Additionally, watching a dog in their own home allows them to feel comfortable and makes the stay stress-free. I believe that communication is one of the most important aspects of a stay. I prefer to be in contact daily with my owners, sending them pictures and updates. That way, you can see just how much fun your pup and I are having together! Dogs are kept busy throughout the day, so I usually get some great pictures that the owners appreciate. And the dogs sleep well at night because they are active throughout the day! I always keep my lines of communication open in case any concerns or questions arise, and my responses are always prompt and professional.

About: I have a family home with a fenced in yard. I also live within walking distance of a popular park where many dogs take their walks. I have a little boy that would love to entertain your fur baby! I am a stay at home parent and only need to leave my home for my son’s activities or to run errands but am never gone longer than a couple hours. I have a fenced in yard and no other animals in my home. I do have a small child though, and he would love to throw a ball, tug a rope, give treats and cuddles.

“Kathie is very attentive and will treat your dog with care and compassion. I appreciate Kathie sending me updates throughout the day to put my mind at ease. I highly recommend!”


About: I am passionate about animal care, with two years of training in veterinary medicine. Animals are my greatest love, and I strive to offer them the attention, respect and affection they deserve. My commitment is to provide you with a safe and healthy environment, while I continue to learn and grow on my professional path to make a difference in your lives Available 24/7! No matter the day or time, I am ready to play, take care of and give love to your pets. Weekends and weekdays, any time is good for me. Trust me to give your pet the attention it deserves! You can rest assured, I promise to give your pet the attention and care it needs. Your trust is my priority, I will keep you informed about the well-being of your pet at all times. I take care of your pets as if they were mine, with love, respect and professionalism. I'm here to give your pet the attention and love it deserves, you can trust me.

About: My prior experiences include working in an emergency veterinary hospital, exotic specialty department and a general practice hospital. I have over a decade of veterinary professional experience. I have experience with cats, dogs, birds, small mammals, and reptiles and have CPR training. I’m a SAHM currently so I am available all days and many holidays. I do have a small daughter that I bring with me when needed but we avoid contact with pets as much as possible. I have a 0.5 acre of land for your pets to play in as well as a safe neighborhood to do walks in. I will be home all day when pets are day boarding or staying.

About: My deep-rooted love for dogs and over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for pups of all ages, sizes, and temperaments including seniors and those with special needs. I’ve always been a dog lover, even as a kid, and that passion has only grown with time. I’ve volunteered at local shelters both as a helper and foster parent, which gave me a deeper understanding of how to care for dogs with unique personalities and backgrounds. I’m experienced in administering medication, including oral and topical treatments, and I understand how important it is to stay calm, patient, and consistent especially with senior dogs or those who need a little extra support. Whether it’s playtime with an energetic puppy or quiet cuddles with a senior dog, I tailor my care to meet each pup’s specific needs. Your dog won’t just be watched they’ll be loved like family. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine because I work from home, which allows me to provide around-the-clock attention and care. Your pup will never be left alone for long periods they’ll enjoy companionship, potty breaks, playtime, and snuggles throughout the day. Being home full-time gives me the flexibility to provide personalized, attentive care that makes your pet feel safe, loved, and right at home. For both boarding and daycare, I care for pets in my home as if they were my own. I live in a beautiful, clean, and cozy new home with a fully fenced-in yard giving your pup plenty of safe space to play, explore, and relax. I also have a friendly and gentle Pug who loves meeting new friends and helps make visiting dogs feel at ease. Since I work from home, your dog will have 24/7 supervision and consistent companionship throughout the day. I stick to your pet’s routine for feeding, walks, potty breaks, and naps, and I always take the time to make sure each dog feels safe, loved, and stress-free. Whether your pup needs extra playtime, snuggles, or quiet moments, I personalize the care to fit their unique personality and needs.

About: I worked as a veterinary technician for 2 years. My mom is a veterinarian so I grew up with plenty of critters to care for! I have done all of my dog Akira’s training and she is a working breed so I have a vast understanding of dog behavior and tons of patience. I am currently a part time student due to the veterinary practice I was working for went out of business. I love working with animals and want to continue that. I do have a fenced in yard. I love taking my dog to the nearby park with a 50 foot leash to change up the scenery as well. I have plenty of space to have the dogs run around and it’s all puppy proofed! (My dog is a chewer)

Amy B.Star Sitter
“Amy B has experience with a variety of animals. She grew up on a farm and has worked with cattle, horses, dogs, cats, sheep, and chickens. Amy is a current dog owner and I have never doubted the safety or well-being of her dog. She has a fenced in yard with room for a dog to enjoy time in and outside. Growing up on a farm taught Amy the value of animal life and the responsibility of caring for animals. She is a dedicated wife and mother and values life. She is confident but not cocky. She is not afraid of hard work. I have witnessed Amy care for her pet by taking her to dog parks, on walks, playing with her, keeping her groomed, and making sure she is watched by a responsible person when she and her family are out of town. I have benefited from knowing Amy personally and would recommend her as a dog walker or sitter to anyone.”

Shaun M.
“Shaun has taken care of my animals many times over the past 13 years! He is the most caring and nurturing person I have really ever met. Sometimes I think my animals have preferred him over me 😒 All jokes aside, I highly recommend Shaun to care for your fur babies! You can trust that they will be in the greatest hands that they can be in and he will care for them as they are his own! Things he has done for me: - walked the dogs - house set to care for the dogs while I’ve been away - fed the animals (have had dogs, cats, fish, hermit crabs, and a hamster) - given my pets their medication - plays with them And so much more!!!”
