“Amy was such a pleasure to book with. My baby Deuce loved his stay with this beautiful family. He is now home and snoring. Safe to say he ran and played a lot of his energy off. Hahaha.”
“Jessica was fantastic with our two puppies. Took extra care to make sure our more apprehensive puppy was comfortable with his new home away from home!! Provided meaningful updates so that we didn't have to worry about our dogs. Allowed us to choose whether we wanted our dogs kenneled. Overall very positive experience and would allow Jessica to watch our dogs again without any hesitation!”
“Took great care of my old lady!!”
“Jennifer watched my mom’s dogs and was amazing! My mom was anxious leaving her furbabies, Jennifer put her right at ease. She made sure my mom was comfortable. Jennifer also sent photos of the dogs every day. She was a fabulous dog sitter!!!”
About: ***Please note my availability states I will accept up to 8 “pets” at a time. I will only accept up to 2 small dogs and/or 6 cats for the same period. Thank you for taking the time to look at my profile and consider my services for your pet. I think it's important to point out that I do this because I love fur babies, and any payment I receive goes towards the betterment of my own pets. If you are on here looking at this site, I can only assume you are looking for the best care available. Currently Accepting Cats and Small Dogs Only**** Since I was a small girl, I have always had dogs and cats as pets. I work well with puppies, senior dogs, disabled dogs, hyperactive dogs, and even aggressive dogs. I am especially experienced with happy, timid, shy, hyperactive, and unsocialized cats. I am able to provide medications orally, topically, or by injection. I will recognize if your cat/dog is happy/sad/scared and care for them accordingly. Being left in a new place with a stranger and new smells/noises/other pets can be both exciting and scary, and unfortunately, we don't know how your pet will react until it happens. My job is to make this transition as smooth as possible and provide a positive experience for both you and your pet. Drop-In Visits (Currently Unavailable) I'm available Monday - Sunday, just about any time of the day. I will treat your home with respect, and most of all, provide your pet(s) the love and care they require while you are away. Overnight Stays I work from home M-F. I'm fortunate to have a job where I can get up, move around, keep a flexible schedule, and have loud noises all around me 24/7. I will be able to interact with your pet frequently throughout the day, send you updates/photos as often as you'd like, and take your calls whenever needed. Drop-In Visits My schedule is flexible. All I ask is that you book at least 1 day in advance so I can adjust my schedule to ensure availability. Overnight Stays Currently, I am only accepting dogs under 15lbs. I use washable potty pads, or dogs can be taken out front of my house as often as needed (on a leash) to potty. My backyard is under construction and not yet ready for tiny paws. The front living area of my home can be easily separated into sections if the need arises. For example, if a particular dog isn't comfortable being around other dogs, or maybe I have a puppy that is causing a bit of chaos being part of the whole group. It's also important to understand that sometimes our precious fur babies have a hard time when away from home and can act out if they don't understand what is going on. This is normal dog behavior. *Pet parent(s) of dogs in heat need to provide protective diapers, specifically request separation (and duration of separation), or assume all risk of possible pregnancy. I have my own two toy poodles. They are named, "Dorothy" and "Oz." I also have two large guardian dogs. They are named "Stella" and "Monty." Stella and Monty will remain outside during drop-off and pick-ups, however, they will interact with the small dogs from time to time. If you are not comfortable with them interacting with your dog, please just let me know. ***Please also consider me for cat boarding too!
“Some people you just know you can trust early on when you meet them and Ramona is one of those people. She asks the questions you expect an experienced sitter to ask and has a safe and comfortable place for your pooch to stay.”
“Teresa and her husband were the first sitters we used on Rover and it was an amazing experience. They made sure to update us with text & photos. They treated Duke and cookie as if they were their own. definitely recommend them and will be using them again.”
“Amber and her husband took great care of our cat! She was feeling like home from the moment we dropped her off! Thanks to Amber for sending picture everyday so we knew that our cat was doing well and that made us free from worries. Our cat is definitely coming back again!”
“Will definitely book with Carolyn again! Stella had a blast and was treated like part of the family. I loved getting all the picture updates since I am usually with Stella 24/7, they eased my momma heart. This turned out to be as much a vacation for Stella as my work conference. Carolyn took her on walks, to the dog park, she had naps, played with a lake view, loved on the kids, & got spoiled rotten by Carolyn. 10 stars!!!”
“Have had Kaylee watch my dog Bruno multiple times now she is a great sitter always sends me updates and is very easy to communicate with Will always see if Kaylee is available first if im in need of a sitter”
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and absolutely love caring for them. Whether it’s my own pets or others’, I do my best to make sure they feel comfortable and loved, no matter their age, size, or personality. I’ve always enjoyed teaching my own and my friends’ dogs, and I’m committed to giving each pet the attention they need. I have plenty of experience with both puppies and seniors as I currently have both! Truly a joy to be around them. I’m currently working part-time and looking to fill my free days by taking care of your pups! I’m especially interested in helping with walks and filling in any gaps you need taken care of. I have two dogs, and while they’re friendly, I feel I’ll be able to best serve others by walking their dogs and caring for them in their own homes. This way, they can stay in a familiar environment while getting the attention and exercise they need. Happy to talk through different options!

“Kodie and her family were great for our Jack! She has a big, fenced backyard for dogs to play in, and she accommodated us when we needed to pick Jack up a day early. We will definitely use her in the future!”
“Brittany’s entire family was attentive and loving. Her yet fur babies were so welcoming and extremely friendly and chill. She has plenty of indoor and outdoor space and made Athena feel right at home. I will definitely be booking with her again! Very experienced and highly recommend.”
“Chelsea was absolutely amazing with Simba! He had a blast with her and her family. I received frequent updates with lots of pictures and videos! Chelsea really treated Simba as if he were her own, which was so comforting while I was away for a week. She administered meds, made sure he got plenty of playtime & cuddles and even gave him a bath! I literally couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. We will definitely be back!”
“Tiffany was amazing!! She sent me updates of Woody multiple times a day and was so communicative. Woody clearly had such a great time and I could tell he was so well taken care of and loved while he was with Tiffany. I highly recommend leaving your dogs with Tiffany and I definitely will be in the future :)”
