“Tina is very responsive during the booking period and easily reachable while your dog is in her care. She is kind to the dogs and attentive to their needs. Our puppy loved spending time at her house for day care and we would definitely recommend Tina to other owners.”

“Morgan has always been there for us when we need a sitter for Jax when visiting Mom in the Poconos. She has a warm and welcoming personality and always has him packed and ready for pickup. She even washes his bowl!”

David R.

“David went above and beyond during my dog's stay with him and far exceeded my expectations! Cooper has some personality quirks and requires some extra modifications for his behaviors. David not only had the background knowledge in understanding dog cues and the value of proper introductions, but he truly took the time to understand Cooper's individual needs. David kept me updated throughout the day, which put me at ease as Cooper was adjusting to a new place with new animals and people. I would highly recommend David to anyone, especially pet parents who's pets require a little extra when it comes to their behavioral needs!”

About: I specialize in caring for small sized dogs, especially Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, but will take medium sized upon request. At my home, the dogs play hard and take naps on the couch. I have a real dog’s home. Toys are played with, lots of love, and your dog will become a member of our family. I am very active with my dogs lives. I invite friends over to socialize them. I have 2 friendly dogs who will immediately show happy tails for their new friend. We play with bubbles, chase balls, eat doggie ice cream, and even have a few toy fish hanging around. We are the kind of home that celebrates a dog birthday with special cakes or cupcakes, enjoys watching the dogs enjoy themselves and the silly things they do, and even puts on special tv shows like the puppy bowl and the dog whisperer for your furry friend. I know what it feels like, and the concerns you might have about leaving your dog with someone new. I’ve been the worried parent too. Therefore, I try to take a variety of photos/videos of them to help you rest easy, knowing they are in good hands. I also send updates about their adventures. My dogs and I look forward to meeting you and your dog, I do meet and greets to get to know your dog, before they visit. It’s a good way for you to get to know me and become comfortable with where your dog will be staying. I’ll give you a little tour of the house and backyard. This also gives me an opportunity to assess your dog’s personality and make sure this would be a good fit for them. During the first few days of his/her visit, I pay extra attention to them. This is typically a more anxious time (when they are just getting used to everything), so I want to make sure they are comfortable. Before your visit: • Make sure all vaccinations are up to date • Complete a meet and greet (if you are new) • Make sure your dogs profile is completely filled out. If your dog has bad habits, this is where you put it. Is he/she scared of storms? Does he/she have a habit of chewing shoes or socks? Does he/she have a routine/ritual I should know about? Is he/she sensitive to being pet, or has a sensitive spot? Would you suggest a lot of patience because of their shyness? Do they have a favorite toy or activity? This is where you put that information. The more I know about your dog, the better prepared I will be for making it a good experience for him/her. • Make sure to note if you’d like any grooming services. • Put together any special instructions If you’re dog is over 15lbs, I will accept based on the sizes and temperament that is best suited for my home. Please drop me a message. What you need to bring: • Food and measuring cup • Kennel and bedding • leash and collar (even if your dog wears a harness) • medications with instructions • Any treats to get them into the kennel and for while they are resting. After all dogs are asleep in their kennels at night, I work my job driving for Lyft on the weekends. It’s flexible enough where I can stop by to let the dogs out whenever I’d like. Usually, the dogs go to bed around 10 pm and I leave to drive as soon as they sound settled. Please let me know if this is a problem for you. My pets come first. Their needs are always attended to. I do a lot of gardening, so they will have plenty of time outside. We are a smoke-free home. The dogs normally sleep in their kennels for at least half the night before joining me in bed, but daytime is spent around the house or backyard. I require kennels for your visit. Kennels are used for pup naps and solitude needed. To ensure all dogs get along, and there is no competition for food, all dogs are fed inside their kennels. I have a large fenced-in backyard for the dogs to enjoy. I use pet gates and kennels to ensure their safety. If I am not at the house because I need to run an errand, I have security cameras both inside and outside my home, which allows me to look in on them, to make sure everything is as it should be. I also require a dog to be wearing a collar. I do this for a variety of reasons. It’s the safest way to ensure a skiddish dog comes out of their kennel, or goes outside for a potty break, etc. I do take in dogs from different households. We become a pack, which is wonderful for their socializing. If you have a more aggressive dog towards other animals, please let me know. If you’d like to schedule a time where there aren’t other dogs (besides mine), please let me know. Who would not be a good fit: if your dog has limited mobility, because my home is a split level and my dogs are pretty active. It just wouldn’t be a good fit for any dog who cannot climb stairs because of a medical condition. I also take puppies, so if your dog gets aggressive or easily irritated with puppies, this may not be the best fit.

“Ben & Jen were very helpful in taking care of my nervous rescue dogs in helping them get socialized. Ben is very patient and I appreciated them letting my dogs come to their home. Ben was responsive in keeping me informed. Ben & Jen both seem super nice!”

“Wyatt was personable and very caring towards my dog, and was a great option for us to drop off for doggie day care for a day passing through town.”

Megan L.

“Andria's family and dog are all very friendly towards my puppy. Nori had a blast there. He got home and fell asleep within 30 minutes, so I didn't have to spend a lot of time playing with him in the evening:) Andria also captured a few great photos of Nori running in the snow with his new friend. Love the photos!”

“We were in town for a memorial, and needed a sitter for mine and my sister’s dogs - Baxter and Archer. Sarah responded immediately, and we’re so grateful for her and her family! The boys had a wonderful time, and she kept us updated with pictures during their stay. She was so great with them, and I’d recommend her to anyone looking for a loving family to watch their dog(s)! (Archer loves the ball her son gave him to take home!)”

About: I grew up on a small hobby farm, where my love for animals began early. After high school, I started working at a large boarding and daycare facility and immediately knew I had found my passion. For over 16 years, I’ve worked hands-on with dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I’m highly experienced in pet safety, canine body language, illness recognition, and overall pet care. Whether your pet needs playtime, patience, or a little extra TLC, I’m here to provide reliable, knowledgeable, and loving care—just like I would for my own. As someone who works from home, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m able to provide consistent attention, timely potty breaks, and plenty of one-on-one interaction throughout the day. Your pet won’t be left alone for long stretches—they’ll enjoy a calm, supervised environment with regular activity, affection, and care. My flexible schedule allows me to tailor each day to your pet’s unique needs, whether that means extra playtime, medication reminders, or just lots of snuggles. I share my home with several of my own friendly dogs(in all sizes), which means visiting pets always have built-in playmates! I have the ability to crate any of my dogs if necessary. My secure, fenced-in yard provides a safe space for supervised outdoor time, whether it’s for exercise, play, or just relaxing in the sun. Because I’m experienced in managing group dynamics and reading body language, I ensure that every interaction is positive and stress-free. Having a pet-friendly home environment allows me to provide a level of comfort, safety, and routine that helps your dog feel right at home.

“Megan was phenomenal from start to finish. Communication was ultra clear and I know our puppy Micaiah was very well taken care of. She thoroughly enjoyed the company of her 9-month-old black lab. We will definitely be hitting up Megan in the future. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve been taking care of my family's and friend’s dogs for about 5 years now and would love the chance to care for more! I will care for your fur babies like they were my own! ❤️🐾 I’m currently a stay at home mom. All my kids are in school, so my 3 year old yellow lab is my only child home during the day! I have plenty of time to give lots of love and attention to your dogs. I have a fenced in backyard and a friendly yellow lab who loves to play with other dogs. I enjoy going on walks and playing outside with dogs but also love to snuggle on the couch with them too!

About: I do have one cat, she is two years old. I have grown up with dogs, 1-2 dogs always in the house. I have 3 kids ages 2,2, and 5, they have been around animals since they were born. They love animals and do really well with them. I have a busy schedule during the week, but looking to help out on the weekends when I can. My kids enjoy the extra company. My backyard is fenced in. Pets can be allowed on the furniture, but will adjust to the clients instructions. I can crate them as well.

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of dogs for over 10 years. I have a pup of my own named Joker who is looking forward to hanging with new pups. I look forward to helping people with their pups! I do work full time but am home by 3-330 and let the pups run in a fully fenced back yard. I have neighbors that also let dogs out during the day if needed. I have a fully fenced back yard and will follow your schedule for your dogs needs. Your dog will get lots of play time as I am home a majority of the time outside of work.

About: I’ve been around and taken care of animals all my life especially dogs! I couldn’t imagine my life without them! They truly are a part of the family! I work remotely and am home day and night unless I’m transporting my kids to activities or events. This makes for a very flexible schedule to take care of pets! I have a fenced yard with plenty of space for running and playing. I have 3 dogs to help keep your pet company! I also have dog beds for resting and a foldable crate stored in case it’s needed.

About: I live it the country between Hayfield and Kasson and love pets. We have a friendly cat named Pickles who spends most of his time lounging in a sunny spot. Our teenage kids are busy with school, spots and jobs. When they are around- They love pets and do some pet sitting of their own. We lost our 17 year old dog, Dudley last year and I’m missing a furry companion during the day. I’d love to meet your Pet family and spend time with them! I’m home most days and pretty flexible. Ideally I’d like to provide regular doggie daycare for the same family as needed. But for now hoping to find a few furry friends to share my work days with. I will care for your dog in my home, while I am working. I have a very flexible schedule so am very available to let them out and give the attention. I often work while sitting on the couch with my computer on my lap. Your pal can sit right next to me.
