“Ashley has done a great job with my dogs! We have 3 and she has customized her time spent with each one based on their needs & personality. She sends updates & photos of the time spent together! Very dependable & flexible with our schedule.”


“Alisa was great! We needed help in a pinch when my dad had surgery in Ohio. She worked around our schedules to meet our pup last minute! She responded quickly and was so sweet with our Hound!”


About: I worked in a boarding center for dogs and cats while their owners were away. There, I had training in caring for many different breeds and sizes of dog, including giving them medications, scheduling play time and potty breaks, and walks. Friends and family all rely on me to watch their pets while they're away, and that's because I genuinely love and care for every animal I come across! I've owned animals my whole life, and right now have one cat named Roxas who I love with my whole heart. I'm self employed from home, so my schedule and availability are extremely open and flexible! Whenever you need, chances are I'll be available to watch after your fur baby! I live in a quiet, nice apartment complex. I don't have a fenced in yard, but would keep your dog leashed while out for potty breaks if boarding. I also have home security cameras installed. I value you and your pets safety and privacy!

“Laura is incredible at helping us with walks and spending time with our pup on short notice. She’s the best.”

About: Ive cared for pets since I was 10 years old. Caring for not just my personal pets but as well as family and friends pets. I have experience in caring for dogs, cats, and even other pets as well such as guinea pigs, ferrets, and even reptiles. I have a rescue dog, she is a 6 year old american bully mix, she is so loving and spends most of her time curled up next to my 11 year old autistic son. She loves car rides, going to the park or bike rides on the trails. I also have a male ferett who I swear acts just like a crazy cat. He loves jumping around doing his "war dance", he will steal our shoes and hide them under beds. As well as play hide and pounce with our dog. I am able to care for not just your furry animals but your reptile babies as well. I don't work outside the home anymore. I do leave for shopping and appointments but am home most other times. Sitting the dogs is my full time job and my pleasure. Drop off/pick up times are from 8am - 7pm. Day boarding runs from 7am - 6:30pm. All guests must be vaccinated including bordetella and flea prevention. If fur baby has ever shown animal or person aggression, I can not board in my home but can accommodate and do frequent drop ins at your home. I don't do overnight care in the clients home and very limited area for drop in visits unless I have no other pets in boarding at the time) All dogs, including mine,are crated overnight or separated overnight and when we leave the home for safety of the dogs

About: I have cared for dogs in various settings for most of my life, both of others, and of my own. My experience ranges from new puppy to 15+ yr old dogs, and from breeds ranging from less than 20lbs to over 90lbs. I also have experience in puppy training and am happy to help implement training during potty or treat time etc. I am currently a full-time college student but have many openings in my schedule between classes and on non-school days. I also have early morning and late-night availability if needed! I have experience administering oral medication, and following specific feeding guidelines, and have strong attention to detail, as I know this can be especially important for our furry friends. No requests are too complicated or particular!

About: My whole life I’ve been around dogs, I’ve dog sat for my cousins, my grandma and I even have a dog of my own. I definitely see this app as a great opportunity to connect with what I love. I’m working part-time at Mcdonald’s currently. I’m available in the mornings on weekdays and I’m currently working on my availability for the weekend. Once I get my availability set I will update! I have a dog and a cat, both are very loving. They both get everything they need and my dog, Max, loves being outside and I make sure he’s out there as often as I can!

About: I am a CVA and have worked in the veterinary medicine field since my Junior year in high school. I know how to administer medications and care for animals in almost any condition. 2 of my senior fur babies recently crossed the rainbow Bridge so I have plenty of love to go around! I currently stay home with our newborn, so I am available in the daytime. I am able to accommodate almost anyone (: Typical schedule is 8 am - 3 pm I'm available but can vary slightly I will keep your pet safe and in my line of sight at all times if they are able to be off leash. If not they will be leashed and in my control to keep safe

About: It has been a life long endeavor to rescue, re home and care for animals. I am proud to be an animal lover and pet parent. Presently I have 3 cats (all rescues), 4 dogs(3 rescues; one foster), a reptile handler(4 bearded dragons;4 leopard geckos) and an accomplished aquarium enthusiast. It is a privilege to share my home with these animal companions. Since I am a pet parent I realize the importance of staying on track with a daily routine for all my pets health and wellbeing. Crate training a dog offers a personal safe space to eat or sleep when boarding. Exceptions can be made to accommodate the pet owners expectation of doting on their precious pet to help ease any separation anxiety.

“Faith came and watched my dog honey in such a short notice of time and I really appreciate you for doing that!”


About: I've always loved animals of every kind. Growing up we've owned everything from rats, guinea pigs, cats, dogs, ferrets, and even a fox. For years, Friends and family have relied on me to watch their pets, because they know I'll take care of them as if they were my own. I'm currently available for late afternoons on Friday's and available on weekends. Message me if you have any questions. My children love meeting new puppies and being able to help take care of them. We have a fully fenced in half acre of backyard for the doggies to play in. I have three friendly dogs that are open to anything. Cooper is our bluetick coonhound, Piper is our Husky mix, and Audrey Shepburn is our white German shepherd. We also have three children ages 4, 9, and 13.


About: I'm friendly, sensitive and patient to a client's needs and their furry babies. I'm trustworthy and reliable with personal experience in dealing with all sorts of dogs big and small. I can be with dogs all day long playing, walking, and I can give a pretty good belly rub!!! I'm available everyday- especially on weekends, evenings and in the afternoons. I have experience with laid back and high energy dogs. I also have personal experience with dogs who have emotional issues like separation anxiety. I'm flexible and dependable with my clients as long as they give me a little bit of a heads up in change of plans so I can accommodate better to their needs and the needs of their pets. I want my clients to know that when they leave their homes and their pets that they everything will be taken care of by me.
