“Our active Golden got to stay with Rachel and Dolly for our trip to Europe. Rachel sent us pics everyday. He and Rachel’s dog played and got along very well.

Thanks Rachel!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats and most farm animals since I was a kid. Going into my late 20s I really do have a passion in caring for any kind of animal and ensuring the best care possible. I'm currently working from home so my availability is flexible and open. I am more than happy to work with your fur babies at any given moment as long as i have a 24 hour notice. shoot me a message and i will work with your schedule the best i can. My dog gets treated like a human, she is spoiled and treated with so much love & care. She gets walks, playtime in the park, and treats as necessary
“Sonja & Tim are great and easy to work with! They send pictures and video updates for Goji throughout the stay. We can tell Goji had a great time there! Will definitely rebook again in the future and highly recommended!”
About: I was raised on a farm and have always had dogs growing up. I have been a pet sitter and dog walker for over a decade. I have cared for pets with specific medical needs requiring daily pills or shots and dogs post surgery. For some dogs, I would help work on their social skills by going to the dog park or downtown so they can be near people. I’ve been known to surprise my regulars with a new toy or treat, because my goal is to make your dog happy. If training is your goal, I can help you enforce those good habits. I’m most fully available mornings, evenings, and weekends. I currently work afternoons and at a church on Sundays. I'm in school full time, but classes are on zoom in the evenings, so I would be able to supervise your pet at that time. I have a dachshund in my home to keep your pet company. We have a large yard and we’re near several nature trails so there are plenty of options for releasing energy! We also have a sandbox (with a lid) if your dog likes to dig.
“Kaylene was a wonderful host & made my dog feel right at home. She was very accommodating & kept an open line of communication the entire time, it was a great peace of mind. We plan on using her again for many more future boarding needs”
“Emily was awesome to work with to meet our needs as a first timer needing dog sitting and with the meet and greet with Daisy! Daisy’s 5 day stay with Emily was great! We were very satisfied.”
“Chelsey & Lucas were so accommodating, detailed oriented & communicative during my dogs stay at their home. I received regular in depth updates & treated my dog like one of their own. They are an active, energetic, dog loving home. I would highly recommend!!”
“Allen did a wonderful job taking care of our girl and was very responsive to messages as well as flexible with drop off and pick up times. We would definitely love to book with Allen again ?”

Jordyn B.
“Jordyn is a wonderful, attentative and caring dog caregiver! She always puts the dog's needs at top priority. She is prompt and reliable, as well as caring and trust-worthy. Above these qualities, she is truly a dog lover and enjoys all the things that dogs like to do. She's just as happy to take your pet out for a walk or a run, as she is to sit and snuggle, or play with toys. She is firm, yet gentle, just as a good doggy lover should be. I highly recommend Jordyn to be a dog sitter for your family.”
