“Catie is awesome! She was easy to book with, on time and great at communication. So nice to know our digs were in great hands.”

“A pawsatively perfect experience!!!! Highly recommend Jill for all your pet needs!!!”


“Mary is wonderful. She provided great communication and pictures so we could see our fur babies. Our girl kitty that doesn’t like strangers even came out to see her. We highly recommend Mary.”


About: I’ve had dogs since I was 10, currently we have a 12 year old dog, a 5 year old dog, and a 1 year old kitten. I’m very comfortable with cats, they’re very sweet. I’ve been dog walking for the past few years and worked with dogs of all kinds. I’m a teacher so I’m off for the summer! I’m pretty much available any day! I’m just trying to get some hours in this summer to work on my savings. I can stay with your pet for as long as you need and I will be able to crate your dog if you would like!

“Love the daily photos of Lucy!”


“Lilah was great! She answered every text I sent in a very timely manner. She was on time every morning (we have a ring camera and was notified when she came and went). This was our first time using Rover and will definitely be using Lilah on our next trip!”


“Kylee was great! She was able to help us on short notice and was very communicative! Will definitely be using her again for our pup!”


“Brigette is as good as they come. Interacts well with pups, keeps me updated. Have used her several times, always pleasant experience. Highly reccommend”


About: I have had a dog of my own or a family dog since I was 6 years old. My “little” guy Trigger just turned 14 in August and he is the friendliest dog ever (never met a person or pet he didn't like), and same goes for my 2 frenchies. I have experience with puppies and adults from 5lbs to 120lbs so I know how to handle the biggest and smallest dogs at the same time. I have a huge fenced in backyard so your pup will get plenty of energy out. My dogs are full of energy but the biggest cuddlers after that so attention and affection is what I'm used to with pups. I work from home so constant attention and outside time, along with lounging time, is going to be had. Anything addition just let me know Fenced in yard, locked gate, front and back surveillance cameras with sound and alarm. Pets stat inside. Plenty of room and beds at night but also locked up/safe house.

“Shelbi was the absolute best! I had a last minute booking and she went out of her way to make sure my cats were taken care of and loved on! Super sweet and a great communicator. 100 will book again for future travel plans! Thanks so much Shelbi!!”


“Nicole is amazing with our dogs and so sweet to them! We are so thankful she comes to take care of them each day so they have some time outside!”


About: I’ve owned dogs for five years now, and I’ve taken care of dogs for family members and friends for even longer! I’ve had to administer insulin via injection daily for one of my dogs, so I would feel comfortable with handling medications. I love all animals and would love to help ease your mind by giving them all the love and attention they deserve! I’m pursuing a masters degree, so I have a pretty concrete schedule for availability. My classes are in the evening so I’m available during the day. I adhere to the requests and level of comfort required by a client, as I would have that expectation when asking for someone to care for my dog. I want to ensure every animal is comfortable and happy.

About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was 14. I love all animals and have experience with all breeds, ages, and temperaments. I have 5 dogs at home so I’m used to chaos! I also started working with farm animals when I was 12 so I have experience working with horses, cows, pigs, chickens, and ect. I’m still a student, but I do a independent program that only requires me to go in once a week to a community and the rest of the week I work on my studies at home. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of space to run around in. All of my dogs are crate-trained, and they go up at night. During the day I leave them outside or they lounge around inside. All my dogs are allowed on the furniture.

“Courtney was great with communication and sending pics. It was a stressful time in my life and it was great knowing my babies were well cared for.”


“You can tell that Nora really cares about your animal and that means a lot. One day she saw my dog hadn't eaten and she checked to make sure that was normal for her. Excellent”


“Oh Caitlyn is awesome. She is so caring and sweet. She really goes the extra mile to play with your animals while your away. She sent us tons of photos and a video. Her service was very reassuring and I recommend her to anyone looking for a great dog sitter. 10/10”


“Jacquelyn is so great at watching and walking our dogs, which can be a bit of a pain since Milly is scared of people and Gabe has no idea that he's attached to a leash. I always felt very comfortable leaving them in her care.”


About: I have been in the vet med field for 6 years and have always had animals of my own. I own a small farm so I’m able to help with your outside pets as well! I work 7-5 during the week days. So I’m able to come by in the mornings and after work and at night if needed. If you are close enough to my work I can also do a lunch visit. My pet are crated during the working hours but when I come home we get lots of outside time playing frisbee, ball and lots of belly rubs. I will brush the dogs a lot daily to ensure less shedding in the house
