“Mazie had a great time staying at Amandas. I was a little nervous in the beginning as this was my first time leaving my dog with a sitter, however Amanda was great and very responsive. She sent me daily updates and pictures. Definitely put my mind at ease and allowed me to enjoy my trip away, felt very comfortable leaving Mazie with her and her other puppies! Will definitely book Amanda for future trips”
“Heather is absolutely wonderful! From our initial meet and greet, I instantly felt comfortable leaving Milo with her. I trust very few people to watch him and I didn’t have a single worry while we were on vacation. She provided multiple updates and pictures daily and I knew he was well taken care of just like he would be at home. Thank you again for taking such great care of our boy!!”
About: Ive taken care of dogs every size. teaching new tricks, going on walks, and ice cream is something I enjoy doing with a fur baby I currently work full time night shift. I work 12 hrs shifts so my other 4 days during the week are open to helping other animal lovers with their babies. Because without the help I receive on my work days I would b very stressed. I have an unfunded yard but I love going on walks. Me and my dog ( henny) are always going hiking, fishing, to the dog park, or just out for a car ride. Henny loves all dogs and has lots of energy to play.
“Jamie was wonderful with The Diva! Jaime sent photos every day while we were away and updated us on how Hadassah was adjusting. I would highly recommend her to care for your sweet ones. Bobbi Jo”
About: Need a safe, loving place for your pup while you’re away? Let them enjoy a mini vacation on our little farm! Your dog will get: 🌾 Plenty of room to run and explore in our fully fenced yard. 🐐 Friendly encounters with goats, chickens & horses (from across the fence). 🐶 Options for group play or solo fun (whatever your dog prefers). 💛 Lots of love and personalized care. At “Country Critters Bed & Barkfast” dogs are treated like family. Whether it’s for a weekend getaway or a longer stay, your pup will enjoy fresh air, animal-friendly fun, and plenty of space to play. I am home 24 hours a day 5 days a week and go into work at our business for 3-4 hours twice a week. My other responsibilities include caring for our horses, goats and chickens which takes about 30min twice a day. We have 6.5 acres, with a 1/2 acre fenced in yard (4ft). We currently have a male Newfoundland, a female golden retriever, a female St. Bernard and a male cat. All animals are neutered/spayed, up to date on medical care and friendly.
“Wade was great with our little old man mutt, even with medicating with an inhaler! He gave our pup a vacation vibe while we were vacationing and was a gracious host. Thanks Wade!”
“Brittany was great with our two pups! We could tell when we picked them up they enjoyed their time and didn’t want to leave - they were passed out in the car ride on the way home lol! I know they both got lots of love from Brittany, her son, and Athena! She even went out and bought one of our pups a new harness because it broke with no intentions of getting a refund which shows she’s a very caring person overall. Will use again in the future!”
About: I truly enjoy getting to know each individual dog's personality and tailoring my response to match. My family always had a dog growing up. Though I am not a "dog trainer" my dogs have always been taught basic commands and learned to reliably respond, for their safety. Lots of treats. I am retired, so I (and my husband) are normally home except for brief errands. My dog and I take about a mile walk twice a day through the woods. Your dog would get frequent leash walks, and whatever playtime they wanted. And of course lots of hugs. :) We have a large back yard bordering on a wooded area for frequently leash walking your dog. Additionally we have a small (20' x 14') fenced area for some off leash play time. Our dog enjoys other dogs and our cat thinks he is a dog. Our pets are allowed on furniture, but of course we would reinforce your rules if they differ. We will play games in the house and lots of attention will be given.
About: I've have experience with special needs cats and dogs. Also horses,goats,chickens, and small animals. Proud owner of a therapy dog. Animals are a part of my life! I love them all! Taking care of pets is a part of my daily routine. This Includes exercise, play time and grooming. Animals enjoy daily attention and activities. This is something I find very rewarding. They would have daily attention with walks and play time. Making sure their needs are met. I would interact with owner as needed or requested.
“This is the first time I had someone watch my girls that wasn't family. I was so nervous. When I asked if Amber was available she got back to me right away and is very quick to respond when she is dog sitting. She was so welcoming and very sweet. I felt comfortable with her as soon as I met her and knew my girls would be in good hands. She kept updating me with pictures the whole time I was away which was very comforting. I will definitely have her watch my girls again and I highly recommend her!!”
“Michelle (and her family) were great with taking my dog (Great Dane) very last minute for a few days. They treated my pup like he was their own, kept me up to date and made me feel comfortable with him there as this was our first time having to take our dog to someone outside our family. I would highly recommend Michelle.”
“As always, Allie did a wonderful job with my pup! Sami had a great extended visit. Allie sent lots of pictures to help me deal with missing my fur baby. Allie always goes above and beyond when she cares for Sami. Definitely will have Sami stay in the future.”
“Amy did a fabulous job with caring for my 2 dogs! She sent photos and updates which were very much appreciated! She’s knowledgeable about dogs so I felt super comfortable with her watching my dogs. Would definitely use her again and recommend her to all who need her services!”
“Muriel was kind and gentle with Sheba. She took the time to meet with us before our trip and for us to become familiar with her and for our dog Sheba to get to know her (and her kids). Her schedule was flexible with our short notice travel plans which we greatly appreciated. She sent us pics of Sheba and text messages while we were gone to confirm everything was ok. We would definitely book our dog sitting services again”
About: I've been a pet sitter for about 15 years. My german shepherd came into my life 7 years ago which gave me another view of pet care experience. I have worked with and cared for dogs with anxiety, fear, aggression, and in need of extra cognitive stimulation. Okay with giving meds and teaching tricks. Currently, I'm working nursing shifts as needed, with running errands on my days off. I'm more often available than not and have flexibility to work around others schedule. I have a back door doggy door that leads into a fenced in back yard (approx half an acre). I also live in a small neighborhood (very little traffic) with about a mile loop for walks. My military and nursing experience makes me very type A. Everything is always clean, tidy, and on time.
