About: I am a fur mommy to an amazing little guy we call Charlie Brown! He is wonderful with adults and children alike! We would love to find him some new friends by watching your cute fur babies too! In my house, someone is always home, so your pet would never be alone! We love to go on long walks through the neighborhood and the local park. Our Charlie Brown loves car rides! My husband is great with animals and loves to play with them! We also have a 3 year old girl who is learning to play with our dogs as well and a full of life 6 year old boy who loves animals, so playtime is all the time here! There is never a dull moment, that's for sure! If you aren't comfortable with your pet coming to our house, that's ok too! I can come to you! I'm a trustworthy, respectful, playful dogsitter as well. Transportation is not an issue. I can stay over night or I can just check in from time to time with your little one. It's all up to you! Let me know what you need and we can figure it all out. I am looking forward to hearing from you and to getting to know all of those adorable fur babies!!!! "Ready to spoil, walk, pet and play! With our family, it's always a fun day!!!" I work for myself so my schedule is never an issue! Whatever may be needed, I will make happen. However, written instructions are always helpful! I don't have a fenced yard. However I do have a runner line that your pets can be hooked to outside so they can play as much as they want to without worry!!

“Eman is the best! We always leave our Yorkie Poo with her and never worry for a second. She’s super reliable, caring, and Simmi always has the best time. It’s clear she loves what she does, and it shows in how happy and relaxed our fur baby is every time we pick her up. Highly recommend!!!💕💕”


“Deb and Ralph are amazing! They welcomed my boys with open arms and spent quality time with them. This was the first time my boys were away from home while I was away and it looked like they had a great time.”


“April was so great to work with! We're from out of town and had our dog in our wedding in Lexington. April picked our dog up on time during cocktail hour and spoiled her all night. She even made time to meet with us when we got into town so we could meet and introduce our dogs.”


“Casey did a fantastic job with Oakley. She gave him the attention and care he needed and kept me up to date. She was also very willing to work with me and my schedule and was very helpful. Thank you!!”


“She was absolutely incredible with the whole process. She sent me pictures and updates of my dog and took the best care of her. I definitely will be booking again and I recommend her to anyone who needs to take their pet someone for boarding. I couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter for Willow. I can’t wait to book again!”


“Angel was an amazing dog sitter! She was very flexible with me on drop off and pick up times, and even met us closer so we didn’t have to drive as far. She sent lots of pictures and kept us updated the whole time. Our dog seemed to have had a good time while he was there :)”


“We couldn't be happier with the care Sierra provided for our Bernedoodle! From the moment I dropped him off, I felt confident he was in great hands. Sierra kept my family updated with regular photos that showed just how much fun he was having. It was such a relief and gave us real peace of mind while we were away. Sierra’s exceptional support during our unexpected travel delay really set her apart. After we missed a connecting flight due to delays, we had no choice but to stay overnight in a hotel. Sierra graciously extended our dog's stay on very short notice without any hesitation. It was a lifesaver, and we’re incredibly grateful for her flexibility and kindness. When I picked him up, it was clear he had a great time. He was happy, relaxed, and well cared for. Thank you, Sierra, for being so incredible. We would absolutely trust you again and highly recommend you to anyone looking for a thoughtful, reliable, and genuinely caring sitter!”


About: I've had dogs for my whole life and I absolutely love them. I love all dogs too, big or small. I love playing with them and running and walking them. Dog cuddles are definitely the best to me. I am currently a preschool teacher, but I will be done each day around 12:30. My hours are flexible, especially in the summer and during school breaks. I am able to work around all kinds of schedules at this time. I have my own dog and I take her on multiple walks daily and make sure to play with her too and make sure that she gets plenty of daily exercise. I also walk my neighbors two dogs daily Monday-Friday and make sure that they get good exercise and go potty for her in the middle of each day. I have even done check in visits with another one of my neighbors that have cats and I made sure to clean their litter boxes and refresh any empty food bowls or water bowls too while they were out of town.

“Janet was wonderful! This was the first time I've left our chocolate lab with someone we didn't know. She had a great time at doggie day camp, playing with her dogs, lots of walks, including to the creek, and treats galore! We are grateful to have found someone who will love our girl and take such good care of her while we are gone.”


“We had a great experience with John and his wife. They kept us informed and our dogs clearly had a great time and were well cared for. They have lots of backyard space for our dogs to run which they need.”


“Maddie did an amazing job and sent regular photos and updates! It was a relief while I was out of town to know he was well taken care of and happy. She went above and beyond and I will definitely be contacting her again for future stays and walks!! :)”


“Cody was absolutely fantastic with Bella and Gracie. From the moment I dropped them off, I felt confident they were in great hands. He was incredibly kind and attentive—not only taking excellent care of them, but also spending quality time playing with them and making sure they felt comfortable and loved. He even went above and beyond by sending me videos and pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Bella and Gracie really seemed at ease with him, and I could tell they had a great time. I would absolutely trust Cody to watch them again—no hesitation. Highly recommend!”


“This was my second time having Alexis watch my older girl Daisy. She took very good care of my puggle. She was quick to respond to messages and sent me a little video so I could see my girl. Thank you Alexis and like before I will contact Alexis for future care of Daisy.”


“It was great being able to leave my Husky overnight with Trooper. He was very friendly, flexible with drop-off and pick-up times, communication was great, and I knew my boy was in good hands. I will definitely be rebooking in the future!”
