About: I've had dogs all of my life aging from newborn puppies to 13 years old. I have trained multiple puppies basic commands like sit, come, speak, and lay down. I can also work on potty training or just play and love your dog. I currently stay at home with my 8 month old baby and the sweetest fur baby. I sometimes have to go to our chicken houses but I can crate your dog for at most an hour or they can venture out with me! I live back off the road on a chicken farm. We have a very long driveway I can take your dog for a walk on. Also, we have a big yard so they will have plenty of room to run and play. I do have the ability to crate your dog if need be.

“Kylee did an amazing job! She was communicative, prompt, fulfilled all needed tasks, and she even made friends with my cat Chiken who trusts no one. I would definitely have her watch my babes again!”


About: I've had animals most of my life from puppies to pound mutts and full blooded and senior dogs. I make sure to encourage play and positive training. I currently work from home so I spend lots of time with family pets, old roommate animals and friends pets. Lately it's been waking up to 3 small dogs my parents have. I make sure to follow any rules stated by the original owner. It can range from crate training, socialization, cleaning, walking or using the client's home.

“We can't say enough about how much we enjoyed having Bri care for our dogs. The pups took to her immediately and she kept us updated with pictures after every visit. We highly recommend Bri and will be using her again in the near future!”

About: I have cared for all kinds of animals through my life but have extra personal experience with my own four rescued cats. I was also a active dog mom but decided to not get another after losing my boy some years ago. I’m a college student wanting to save money up while in school and as a pet lover and owner I can’t think of a better way to earn money while in school than playing with and spending time with animals. My yard is not fenced in! But I can take them to a fenced in area such as a ball field or I can come to the client in some cases. I do however have a closed in patio at my home, hardwood floors and loving cats (plus my mothers friendly dog) at home.

“Emily always takes great care of both of cats. She is attentive and make sure the cats have everything they need and a little play time as well. She is always communicates any issues or concerns and goes above and beyond with her visits Highly recommend her to take care of your pets”


“James did a great job with Ms. Kitty, we will Definitely call on him again for our next trip. Our cat is getting older, she is 13, and we were gone for 5 days. We have never left her alone for that long, but James took very good care of her. Thank you James!”


“I needed someone to watch my kitten, Salem, for a few hours while I was away. I had never left him for more than two to three hours before so I was very nervous but Lori was so sweet, caring and really showed her passion for animals and understanding of my anxiety in leaving him. She texted me updates, sent me pictures and even a video to soothe my fears! And he was having a great time. He got to play with some of his favorite toys and some other toys she had at home for her furbabies! I'm very appreciative to her and can 100% recommend, without a doubt. Will use her services again in the future!! You won't find a better sitter.”


“Tessa watched my 11 week old kitten for a full weekend while I went out of town. I was extremely nervous leaving him with someone I had never met. Tessa took the best care of Goose and he was lucky enough to hang out with her dog and cat all weekend! She sent so many photos and videos it made me feel super comfortable being away. When I picked him up today, she even made him a little report card that told me how he was!! I would have Tessa watch my baby over and over again!”


“I cannot put into words how amazing this young lady was with Piper and Momma Cat. She went above and beyond with my babies. I highly recommend using her for your furbabies. And I know I'll be using her again.”


About: I've had all sorts of pets from a very young age. My father introduced me to animals since I can remember and my love has grown for them ever since. I take care of my pets daily and always make sure to provide them with the best care that I possibly can. I currently have 3 dogs of my own, a cat, 2 turtles and 3 geese. I used to volunteer at a local vet clinic as a kennel attendent when I was in college and I learned how to manage various pets. Over the years, I've tried to learn as much as I can about all sorts of pets to ensure they have the best quality of life. If there is anything you have questions about or you think I may need to know please don't hesitate to do so. I'm currently available any day of the week, Monday through Friday from early in the morning until. I can also accommodate for some weekends, just let me know what days/times work best for you! All of my pets get the adequate care that they deserve. My dogs, cat, turtles and geese all have different diets (for example) and I ensure that each one is getting what they need. All my pets have different activity levels so I have different toys/treats for them. They really do each have their own personality.

About: For as long as I can remember, there have always been dogs in my home, and I wouldn't have it any other way. I love dogs more than anything, and I would be delighted to care for your fur babies. I currently have three dogs: a 9-year-old Papillion, a 9-year-old American Staffordshire, and a 7-year-old Lab/Chow mix, two of which I helped raise from puppies. I also have experience pet-sitting for family and a couple of friends. I am completely free most of the summer, and I go to school part-time in the fall and spring. Starting in the fall, I will be free all day Thursday-Sunday, and from 12 pm-10 pm Monday and Wednesday. For daycare/boarding: I have a fenced-in yard with plenty of space for your furry friends to run around and play, and a driveway that is almost a mile long where we can go for a walk without worrying about cars! I have 3 dogs of my own, all of which are friendly and playful, but they can be kept separate if they make your dogs uncomfortable. For pet-sitting/check-ins: I'm here for you! I want to listen to how you want things done and what you need from me as a pet-sitter. After all, they're your pets in your home and I know every pet is unique!

Josh W.
“Finding a reliable pet sitter who genuinely cares for your furry and scaly family members can be a challenge, but once Josh started watching them I knew they were getting the attention and care they needed. Not only did he diligently look after my beloved dogs Lily and Frida, but he also showed exceptional care for my bearded dragon, Tanzanite. Whether it was staying overnight to house sit or taking them for walks, I always felt at ease knowing they were in reliable hands. His attention to detail, genuine love for animals, and commitment to their well-being set him apart. I highly recommend Josh for anyone seeking peace of mind while away from their pets.”

Percy L.
“I have known Percy all of his life. He absolutely loves all types of animals. He has helped to raise every type of animal we have ever had. He is extremely patience with them and will even talk to them like they are his children, with a calm and loving voice. He takes our dogs for walks, spends the whole time with them whenever he is home, and takes care of any and all other responsibilities they may have. Our dogs seem exceptionally happy whenever he is around. They wag their tag nonstop whenever Percy comes into the room. He will even get on the floor and play with them for hours at a time. Percy is always on his phone looking at the different types of animals and what all they need to stay healthy and happy. Whenever he has any money, he always spends it on the dogs.”
