“This was our second booking with Christina. We have full confidence in her ability to take great care of our 3 pups. They have lots of fun playing with her personal dogs and daycare guests in her large, fenced backyard. We especially appreciated her flexibility in accommodating a change in our travel plans and allowing for an earlier pick-up. 10/10!”


“Our dogs had such a wonderful weekend with Marissa and her family! They take such great care of our pups and make sure they get lots of attention and stimulation. Marissa sends updates and photos every day that help ease our minds while we are away! We couldn’t recommend her more!”


“I am beyond grateful for Tonya. I was able to take a once in a lifetime vacation because Tonya was there for me. I have a 20 year old very needy pup who isn't easy to care for. She took such good care of him and my home, even while, my smoke alarms decided to beep the entire 8 days. She is a patient woman. I hope you are lucky enough to book her.”


About: I had pets all through childhood and now I've got 4 dogs and 8 indoor cats plus some chickens and ducks. We also have 2 children who adore animals. My skills with pets is heating what they are saying and getting on their level, or giving them space o If needed. I am on short term disability due to medical issues of the autoimmune variety so I am home all the time! I can let dogs out when needed and play with cats. I have lots of availability. I have a fenced in backyard for the dogs (6 foot high wire fence), crates, kennels, rooms that can be shut off from the house, etc. Our animals can also be sectioned off if necessary for the stay.

“Caroline was wonderful and took great care of our sweet Maisey! She was communicative and super flexible with changes in our travel plans! Will definitely book with her again ☺️”


“Jennifer welcomed our dog Maggie into her home for several days while we were away. I felt comfortable with Jennifer from our first conversation; she has extensive experience as a Vet Tech, but is also friendly and kind. Maggie was treated like part of Jennifer’s family and was well cared for during her stay. I am so glad we found her and look forward to working with her again!”


“Her and her family were so nice to my dog Hudson & I. On very short notice, she took care of my dog while I am battering a serious head cancer. I cannot say enough kind things about them, and thanks towards them. My dog was happy & well cared for when I picked him up.”


“I was anxious about leaving my dog with someone else for the first time in a new state. Kelly went over and above the call of duty to make sure i felt in the loop. She came home tired and happy!”


“Nikki was fantastic! I felt very comfortable having her take care of Clover for a couple days. Her property is perfect for a dog that's used to being off leash and Clover even had a friend to play with while she was there. Nikki sent plenty of updates, pictures, and video which was perfect because I missed my baby! I would absolutely recommend Nikki to anyone that needs a pet sitter ?.”


“What a wonderful place! The Ponderosa for dogs. Susan was so good with him and took him out on long walks in the woods with her own friendly dog along. Stratton was happy, and active, and I felt he was in a safe, trusted place with friends. Highly recommend Susan and her Ponderosa (not a human size Ponderosa, but dog size Ponderosa).”


About: I'm a genuine dog lover! I've always trained my dogs on basic tricks and commands.I'm aware that dogs have their own personalities, fears, and strengths. I work part-time. I have a flexible schedule. I'm open to having dogs in my house throughout the week and some weekends, if needed, and also just walks. I don't have a fenced yard. However, I will be with them out in my yard to assure a safe environment. I'll take them hiking or for walks around my area. They are welcome inside my house to sleep and rest.

“Larissa is absolutely wonderful! Rupert greatly enjoyed his stay in her safe and loving home. You can tell she genuinely cares for your animal as if they were her own. Larissa provided photos throughout the week and a recap of their adventures. Definitely recommended!”


About: I am a dog owner myself, to a 14 year old Australian Cattle dog named Edgar. Edgar used to be very energetic and required ample amounts of exercise, though he is still energetic, his old bones make it hard for him to romp like he used to. On top of that, I have an almost two year old who is obsessed with all animals, and think it would be a great opportunity to educate him early on dog safety and etiquette. It would also be nice to have more of an excuse to get out of the house and do something fun together! I have had experiences with many different breeds and sizes. I've been a dog lover my whole life, and I feel the most happy and at peace when I'm around them. I am more often than not the go to care taker for my friends animals when they are away. I am available, M-F 8am-1:30pm I hope you'll consider us to help make your pups life as fun as ours!! Pet care is family care, and that comes automatically. Your pup would be well fed and watered in a timely manner. And they would get and extra dose of love and cuddles free of charge! I care for clients pets as I would my own, which is how I care for my son, with immense amounts of love and devotion :)

About: I love hosting dogs at my Airbnb. Perhaps because of my good, calm energy with pets. No matter how old, big or small , they love me! They are often quickly accepting of my presence. I lost my charming standard poodle named Skeeter 2 yrs ago to cancer, so I miss giving my love to them. I am always looking forward to walks, drives & hikes and it would be nice to have a companion while doing so. I grew up owning an energetic black lab, silly golden retriever and dainty white shepherd. In my adult life I had two Dobermans and a standard poodle. My childhood home always had a pet or a dog - the dog always went to work on construction with my dad! I work part time and have plenty of time to love your pets. My schedule is flexible thru out the year. I often travel with my Trusted house sitter app. We have a large private yard far from the road for pets to enjoy wandering about sniffing for rodents among the blueberry bushes and grassy knolls.
