“Shawna went above and beyond to make our 3 girls feel safe and loved for the week she cared for them. She came a few days before to meet them and to understand how we take care of them so that she could continue that at home she sent daily pictures of them and was willing to check in and let us know how they were settling in and what they had done that day. She even purchased a set of stairs, so our smallest girl could get up on the couch with the rest of the dogs we would highly recommend her to anyone and will be using her in the future. Her young sons really helped. Our girls settle in and made a hard week on them a little easier”


“Gloria was wonderful! Great communication and sent lots of pictures of our fur baby while we were gone. He was well taken care of at her home. Her place is easy to find too.”



“My two Dog's had a blast and I feel like they had a vacation for two days. They were well cared for and had a fun time playing with other dogs and I know they very much enjoyed their stay. Thank you so much for making me feel comfortable and I knew I did not have to worry about them for one second. I will use Julia F. for all my future dog sitting needs.”


“I can’t recommend Holly & James enough! They took such incredible care of my two dogs while I was away, and I felt completely at ease knowing my pups were in loving, capable hands. They kept me updated with daily photos and little notes about how the day went, which meant the world to me. Whether it was playtime or just cuddles on the couch, they made sure my dogs were happy, comfortable, and well cared for.”


“Katie was amazing with Oliver! Very caring and loving and attentive. Sent pics and had great communication. I felt very comfortable leaving him at her house for the week. She has a great backyard and setup for boarding. Would def recommend!”


“Tammy was AMAZING! After we got our babies home, they seemed mad that they had to leave. She spent so much time spoiling them it made me feel like I need to step up my mom game. She also stayed in constant contact with lots of pictures and asked lots of questions about what our babies could or couldn’t do/eat/etc. to help keep their routines. 10/10 great service! We will continue to book her for any boarding needs.”


“Lyndsey was great with our Abbie who has recently been diagnosed with diabetes. She sent us videos and photos throughout the day. Abbie actually acted like she didn’t want to leave when I picked her up, lol, so I knew she loved staying with Lyndsey!”


“Hayden is the most professional and dog-loving care provider I have met in Springfield. He and his wife were incredibly accommodating to our schedule and took extra care of our dog during the July 4th holiday. Our dog is afraid of fireworks and Hayden made her feel very comfortable and safe. I would without hesitation send Paris for more doggy day care and pet sitting. If you love your pooch, I'd recommend you do the same. He is without question one of the best in Springfield.”


“I can't say enough great things about Aric! He gave us all the confidence that Whiskey's visit would be great - and it was! Convenient area, great rate, and fantastic care! We will definitely use Aric again and recommend him to family and friends in the Athens area!”


“The best host for my pup! I could tell he was loved and cared for and Lillian was very responsive and kept me updated with photos every day! Grateful to have found her and will be using her again in the future!”


“Maddy and her family took care of Mica very well, and sent me updates frequently. Mica was nervous a little bit at the beginning but soon got used and I new environment with new friends, and had a wonderful time staying in their house. I highly recommend it!”



“Caitlin did a great job watching our dog while we were away. She set up a time for us to meet in advance to ensure our dogs got along, and she was really flexible on drop off and pick up times. Our dog came home happy and tired, so it seems like she had a good time!”


“Wonderful family, great home with large fenced in yard. Our lab loved her day with Wendy & family which included a playmate Rupp (their family dog). Lots of attention and loving care. Highly recommend, have already rescheduled additional stays.”


About: Owned dogs and cats all my life. I’ve raised English Bulldogs for 30+ years. Experience in newborn to elderly care. I’ve babysat for friends and family more time than I can count. I’m currently retired so my schedule is open and would love to take care of your pets as they were my own. Plenty of time to spoil your babies I have a fenced yard and a crate if needed. I currently own 1 eight year old cat. Cat can be put upstairs if needed for her safety. I have plenty of experience in rotating animals if one has issues with another.

About: I have over 20 years of pet care experience by providing care in my own home, and in clients homes for medium and large dogs as well as cats. I also have 4 years of fostering experience with rescue dogs, including pregnant moms and birthing puppies. With all this experience I have provided medications, given laser therapies (with clients equipment), bottle and syringe fed young pups. I have walked dogs on leash and on slip leads. My mission is to make cats and dogs in my care feel safe, comfortable and loved while their pawrents are gone. We are a couple based sitting service, which allows for your pet to have several outdoor potty and play sessions, and plenty of snuggle time indoors as well. I am open to providing care for 4 dogs in my home in addition to my pack, and am able to take multiple cats (they have their own room in my home so that they are not stressed by the dogs and vice versa). In my home dogs would have access to outside time as needed for the majority of the day. I will follow all expectations for your dog in your home. In our home dogs are allowed on the furniture as we allow our own on the furniture. I believe in positive reinforcement by providing love, treats and redirection. I will not and am not comfortable using shock collars, prong collars or choke collars.

“Kallie is very kind and very knowledgeable about dogs. My Charlie was given a lot of attention and excellent care during his stay in her home. I amany photos daily, which eliminated my anxiety about leaving him in someone else's home. I will definitely hire Kallie again to keep my Charlie when I have to travel.”


“Christina was amazing with my 3 pups! She messaged me everyday and sent photos to let me know they were doing good. I was very confident being our of the country knowing my babies were in good hands. Will definitely be booking again through her!!”


About: I am here for all of your pet needs! Simple dog walk? Dinner time for your exotic pets? Overnight stay? Puppy/kitten care? I’m there! I am experienced in all aspects. I have owned many mammals, reptiles, fish, and arachnids. I have volunteered at my local animal shelters and animal rescues since I was in middle school. I would receive service hours for bathing litters of puppies and walking large dogs around the shelter. When I began high school, my family started fostering animals. We would foster entire litters of kittens at once and raise them until they were adopted. My family also took in dogs that needed a temporary home. I have also been compensated for boarding friends' and family's dogs -from dashound to bernie doodle- we love all sizes! I have enjoyed every second of volunteering, pet sitting, and fostering. I am excited for what the future holds for me and Rover! I am currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time to play with, walk, or feed your pets! I am an animal lover who has a passion for treating pets like royalty. At home, I have a dog, a cat, a lizard, and a spider whom I love and care for daily. Thankfully, my family loves them too, and they take care of them while I am away. Your pets will be treated like royalty. They will have my full attention and lots of love. I want details of your pets day to day lives so I can keep them stimulated and fulfilled! I walk my dog, Breezy, every day. We love afternoon walks, but lately they have been evening walks due to the pavement being so hot. Breezy also has a variety of stimulation activities that we set up for her daily. Snuffle mats, puzzles, and interactive treat toys that require paw-eye coordination. I offer services to cats as well. I can love and pet your kitty for hours! I can also comb fur, brush teeth, and trim claws. I make cat toys very fun and exciting with high-energy play, and I provide many cat trees and scratchers.

About: I have taken care of all kinds of animals throughout my life, dogs are my favorite though!! I would love to take care of yours! I am currently working at topgolf full time right now, i am available during the evenings on the days i work, i usually get off around 4!! When caring for pets, i feel they need a lot of outside activity. I like to take the dogs for a walk or to the doggy park, to let them get their energy out!! I would love to come and take care of all your fur babies!!!

Jenn & Derek M.
“Jenn has looked after our very active and excitable female Pit Bull mix, Khali, since she was only a few months old. She was the first to take her on an adventure to the dog park, which she loved. Jenn has looked after Khali when we have traveled, providing consistent high-quality care. She had the misfortune of managing Khali's stomach bug during one trip, but she handled it with grace, patience, and exceptional care. I appreciate that she keeps Khali active and gives her plenty of cuddle time. She always sends pictures, which is comforting and they are always cute or hilarious. I genuinely believe she cares for Khali and I always have peace of mind when she is in Jenn's care.”

Lauren H.
“Lauren is warm, outgoing, and truly wonderful with animals. Both of our dogs adore her, and she has cared for them—as well as our rats and even our pet snake—with genuine compassion and attentiveness. I completely trust her in our home, and more importantly, with our beloved pets. She’s been an invaluable part of our pet family’s care.”
