“Mya knows dogs! She was wonderful for watching our Lance for the 2nd time. We look forward to booking with her again. Lance seemed pleased with his "puppy playdate"as well.”

About: I have three dogs and three cats; it’s basically a zoo in here, but I wouldn’t have it any other way! My family and I love animals and look forward to taking care of yours, too! I am a teacher, so I am home around 3:30 daily. Friday evenings my family and I are free (big homebodies). Both Saturday and Sunday we usually spend around the house (besides when we have to go grocery shopping). One of our favorite parts of our house is our fenced in backyard. As mentioned, we have 6 animals, but all of our animals get along, and the youngest two dogs love to play! In addition, we have a furnished basement that can be closed off if needed. There are four kennels (2 XL, large, and medium). Your cat(s) or dog(s) would have a great day/night here! -Our animals are an extension of our family, and yours will be treated the same🤍
3. Cassie B.
“Cassie recently watched our Scottish Terrier in her home while we were away and did a wonderful job! She is one of the most responsible people I know and took such great care of our dog. While our dog was with Cassie we didn't have to stress or worry, we knew she was in great hands and we were provided with lots of updates. Our dog can be a little tough sometimes and Cassie was able to bond with her and gave her excellent care. We will absolutely use her in the future and will recommend her to anyone ever in need of a dog sitter, she's the best!”
4. Derek P.
“Derek was flexible and my dogs loved him. 1 of my dogs has a lot of anxiety & I assumed would stay hid from him the whole time. She’s had no problems warming up to him. (She still even barks at my brother, sometimes.) I recommend & we look forward to seeing Derek again.”
5. Kristin A.
“Kristin was amazing to work with! She kept me updated throughout the day on how my puppy Nala was doing, which helped ease some of my nerves of leaving my fur baby. Nala isn’t fond of the kennel quite yet, and Kristin listened to these concerns and gave pointers on how to warm her up to the kennel. I would trust Kristin to watch my dog anytime!”

About: I have pretty open availability and do not travel that often. I have two small dogs that are playful and energetic. For as long as I can remember, dogs have been part of my life and have gotten me through anything that has ever happened to me. Bad or good. Dogs aren’t considered pets, they are family and I promise to treat your family member with the respect and love you would give yourself. I not only want to cuddle and play with your furry friend, but gain a bond. A friendship. My partner works from home as well. I would love to take any dog in my home while you are away, to either play with me or play with my very own bundles of energy, Coco and Brulee! Please let me know if I can help you out at any time! I do work M-F but have weekends off. My partner works from home and is home all day long. I do have a decent lunch and get off by 5 every day. I would feed your pups on your schedule. I take the time and energy needed to play, nourish and allow your dog to run if needed. Dogs are family and I intend on treating them this way.
7. Tamara D.
“Tammy and her family are awesome. Our guy had a nice big fenced in yard to run around in and he had plenty of attention and playtime. Communication with her is quick and easy. She is also very good about asking for info on my dog when she needed something and giving us an update as the day went on. Definitely planning to rebook with Tammy.”

“Takes great care of my dog during the day, very accommodating schedule”

15. Dylan T.
“I recommend Dylan to care for any pets. She grew up with dogs and was always loving and took care of them. Adopted a dog from a shelter and took very good care of him. When we had to go somewhere over night she would come and take care of our two dogs with no problems.”
16. Dylan R.
“Dylan has watched one or both of our temperamental 3 year old chihuahua's off and on for quite some time. He truly has a love for dogs! My dogs get along great with his bigger dogs. He has a space in the lower level of his home with kennels if needed, and he has a huge yard! The dogs can safely roam wherever they want and make themselves at home, even to crash on the couch for a nap. Dylan's home is very clean and well kept. If you are looking for the perfect sitter for your fur baby, contact Dylan!”
17. Mckenzie K.
About: I have experience with both cats and dogs! I currently own two wonderful male cats who are emotional support animals. I would love to watch your animals as my cats would love a friend to play with. Walking dogs is also a huge hobby of mine; not only to get exercise myself, but for the dog to get fresh air for a period of time. I would make sure your animals are well fed, watered, and taken care of to your liking. As a pet owner, I understand how scary it may be to put your baby in someone else's care. I would love to ease that stress by doing whatever possible to care for your animal. I would love to also do drop by visits for those who may not be comfortable leaving your animal at someone else's house. Not only do they need taken out every now and then to use the bathroom, but dogs are very social animals that need periodic attention. As shown in my reviews, I have the experience to give the best care possible to your pet! During the week, I have a couple shifts that are 8 hours long from 3-11 so I will not accept boarding or drop ins during that time frame, but periodically do drop ins before I head off to work. I give care to your pets however their normal routine is - we will complete a meet and greet before booking to go over this.
18. Heather C.
“Heather watched my puppy for a day when I needed someone last minute. She was very flexible and accommodating! She took great care of my puppy and took her on 3 walks.”
19. Holly S.
“Our lab Harmon was happy with Holly and Merlin from the get-go. From the pics she sent I could tell he felt right at home there. A trip to the dog park was icing on the cake for our active boy! He slept the 20 minute ride home instead of hanging his head out the window so I could tell he was tired. When I have an evening meeting and the only kennel in town closes at 6 pm it’s important to me to have someone like Holly who can be more flexible. Since we got him in the middle of the Covid 19 pandemic, our pupper doesn’t like being alone. We’ll definitely call on Holly again.”
20. Kleine L.
“Kleine would make a great pet carer/dog walker. She is a very kind, caring and positive person. When she adopted her golden, Monet, she researched and used the most gentle of training methods. Kleine regularly takes Monet on long hikes and walks to ensure Monet gets enough exercise. Kleine is very dependable and honest and is a person of high integrity. She loves and enjoys animals and any pet would be lucky to spend time with her. Once you meet Kleine you will be immediately at ease with leaving your pet in her care.”
