About: I love animals! I am able to adjust and adapt to multiple requests for each unique pet. I understand that each owner and each pet is different. No one knows their pet like you do! If you tell me what you want and what your pet needs, I will make sure that the task is carried out. I am comfortable with mild tempered and high energetic pets. I work at home full time, however, I anticipate scheduling around work to give my full undivided attention and care to your pets! I look forward to hearing from you! I work from home fulltime and will have plenty of flexibility to care for your fur baby! I'll be able to keep my eyes on them the entire stay. I have a fenced front and back yard. I'm very loving and affectionate, but can also maintain any rules or training routines necessary for your fur baby.

“Terri has been great with my 2 1/2 year old golden retriever. She provides loving and honest care for my pup every day that she is scheduled. I highly recommend her if you need someone to treat your dog like their own.”
3. Corbyn G.
“Corbyn is FANTASTIC! She is a very experienced dog trainer and did so well with my energetic 6 month old golden doodle. My dog is struggling with leash walking but Corbyn was able to easily walk him. We will definitely use Corbyn again! Five stars!”
4. Jeremiah M.
“Jeremiah has been so wonderful with walking my dogs. They really look forward to it and it gives me peace of mind that they are getting the attention and exercise they need. He is so friendly, reliable and really loves animals, like I do.”
5. Allie H.
About: Hi everyone! I am 28 years old and work as an elementary school teacher. During the summers I enjoy staying as active as possible. I enjoy long walks, running, and being around others. Throughout my life I have always loved pets! My family had a cockapoo that I have grew up playing with and caring for. Currently my boyfriend and I have a lab named Finn. Many other people close to me have pets that I am often around as well. I have dog sat in the past for multiple families and have absolutely loved it! It is always fun meeting and playing with new dogs. I would love to get to know your dog and would be happy to walk, play with, or dog sit him or her! 🐶 I have the summer free, so free to watch/ walk your dog any time. We can accommodate in our house, or I can come to your house as well. If your pup stays at our house we will make sure our dog gets along with yours. We will take great care of your pup and treat it like our own ❤️

“Highly recommend! Brooklynn went above and beyond for my poodles when she was taking care of them! You can tell she really just loves animals. Reasonable prices, professional, and your pets will love her!”
7. Braeden W.
“I had the pleasure of working with Braeden as a dog sitter and I couldn't be happier with his services. From the moment I met him, I could tell that he had a genuine love and passion for animals, and my furry friend immediately took to him as well. Braeden was extremely reliable and always arrived on time to take care of my dog. He made sure to follow all of the instructions I provided and went above and beyond to make sure my dog felt comfortable and happy while I was away. He even sent me pictures and updates to let me know how my dog was doing, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. What I appreciated most about Braeden was his professionalism and his caring demeanor. He treated my dog like his own, and I could tell that he truly enjoyed spending time with her. I highly recommend Braeden to anyone who is in need of a reliable, responsible, and caring dog sitter. He is the best!”
8. Rachel B.
“Rachel is an amazing pet sitter!! She pet sits my 3 dogs and cat, She always makes sure they are well fed and walks them when i asked her too! She’s even cleans their mess around the house if any and gives them love and affection.”
9. Sydney M.
“Sydney Meadows is a wonderful pet sitter. She has attended to our baby dog, Bennie on several occasions and is the best! I feel at ease leaving our pet with her, she feeds him as instructed, plays with him, walks him and is a Registered Vet Tech! I would not leave Bennie with any one else-Sydney is so responsible and I feel like she is part of our family! Love her!”
10. Morgan G.
“Morgan has always been around dogs growing up and loves animals! She had 2 dogs of her own! She is very trustworthy and reliable! Highly recommend”
11. Isabel C.
“Isabel loves animals. She’s incredibly reliable and responsible. I love her attention to detail and the care she shows for my pets. She has worked for me for over 5 years and she’s someone I can count on and recommend. She will spoil anyone’s loved pets”
12. Erin R.
“Erin is a fantastic animal caregiver! She has a ton of cat and dog foster experience, and we have asked her to watch our dog and first cat a number of times. I think she does a better job keeping on top of them than we do... We also adopted our second cat from the Yoga4Cats rescue that she is on the board of directors of. Erin was fostering her while pet-sitting for us, and she and our dog hit it off right off the bat!”
13. Alexas F.
“Alexas is incredible with our Mabel! Mabel runs to greet her as soon as she sees her and loves to give Alexas kisses and smiles! Mabel is loved and cared for like she is theirs!! No worries about being away when Alexas has her ❤️”
14. Jacob B.
“From the first communication with Jacob, he was enthusiastic, flexible, and willing to take care of our quirky pups. He always responded quickly and had a great, positive attitude. Once it came time to care for our dogs during our five day vacation, he was clearly committed and looking forward to spending time with them. Even with a long list of instructions he made us feel like he had everything under control. While we were away, Jacob sent regular pictures and videos of the dogs playing or cuddling with him. He spent the night at our house and was there almost all the time. He was willing to bring in mail and even brought trash cans to the curb. He was like superman! Once we returned, the dogs seemed a bit disappointed that he was no longer their person. We immediately inquired about him coming back! I can't say enough great things about Jacob, his professionalism, and willingness to help out. And the dogs were clearly well cared for while we were away. Such a gift to relax knowing they were in great hands. Five stars! Highly recommend!”
15. Alliah I.
“Alliah is an exceptional dog sitter !! She goes above and beyond to make sure my dogs feel loved and cared for. What I (and my dogs) enjoy most is that she is great with training, finding activities that let them work out that energy, and calm them down whenever needed. I highly recommend her as a dog sitter. For reference she’s worked with my Rottweiler, Husky, Pitbull terrier, and golden doodle in the past !”
16. Skielyr T.
“If I could choose anyone other than my family to care for and look after my fur babies it would be Skielyr. I have watched her love and spoil her dogs endlessly and I know she would do the same for any dog she encounters! If you want your dog to be entertained or pampered like royalty I would contact Spieler. Her active lifestyle allows her to keep up with high energy pets as well as those that just like to cuddle. Her experience with adopting shelter dogs and training has also allowed her to show off her patience and positivity when your pets are first learning!”
17. Heather E.
“I used Heather for watching my dog Lucy for a week,, what a terrific job she did, i will defentinley call h÷r again..Thank's again Heather.”
18. Michael W.
“First of all, Mike absolutely loves animals. This is proven by amazing treatment of his four dogs, 5 cats, three chinchillas, among all the other small animals. He is so good to them with all the time, attention and love he provides by spending his time with them. If anyone gets sick, he’s at the vets office and he s always finding the best food, the best and coolest treats as well as the coolest toys .... You are, your getting a very loving man to be with your pets”
19. Taylor H.
About: I grew up on a farm in Wisconsin and taking care of animals ever since I can remember! I have an emotional service animal named Bella who is a chihuahua (I will not bring her when caring for your animal for safety). I know how special and important pets are and I would love to care for your pets when needed! I am a college student and my schedule is very flexible. I can do mornings, late nights, or check ins/walks during the day. The weekends are more flexible for me! As an owner of an emotional support animal, I have experience in crate training. I have experience with babysitting and house sitting and will treat your home and pets with respect and kindness!
20. Malachi g.
About: I think one of the main things that would set me apart maybe from others is that I have plenty of time I am extremely patient and I’m actually willing to listen to you and be patient with your animal!! This fits into my schedule because currently I am getting ready to go to my next semester of college as a entrepreneur and I have plenty of time on my hands, I love animals with the patience to understand them and with knowing how to properly take care of animals I know how to properly deal with unsatisfactory behavior with also knowing how to properly reward good behavior along with knowing how to deal with animals around other animals and I’m all around a great choice to watch your best friends! I treat and train my fur babies with respect and of course love them unconditionally and listening to their behavior instead of just acting on impulse and have a stable balance of spending time with my animals and other things.
