1. Trina N.

“Trina did amazing!! She kept us updated with any concerns and/or questions she had along with sending us pictures, which we appreciated! It was super late when we got home, so didn’t get to see her but Max was sound asleep, which makes us know that he was very comfortable! We will definitely be reaching out to Trina again!! We know Max likes to bark, so hopefully if she’s available, she’ll watch him again!! 😀”

“Hayley was communicative while we were gone and we felt safe letting her stay in our apartment after just meeting her. Our dog seemed well taken care of and happy when we got home. Would definitely ask her to house sit again!”


9. Zoe J.
About: I've had pets of all kinds and ages my whole life. I'm adept at distributing medicine, calming storm nerves, bathing, and snuggles. I've taken care of puppies and senior dogs alike. I've trained my own dogs on leash walking and standard commands. I've taken care of large breed and small breed dogs. I have 2 dogs currently, and a full stack of cats as well, so I'm familiar with a blended fur-family. I go to community college locally and work part time so I have a good amount of time to hang out with your fuzzier members of your family! I take care of my parent's house so they can both work and leaves me with a flexible schedule. I offer overnight sitting in your house so that your pets can be as comfortable as possible in their own familiar surroundings. Changes of routine can be confusing for dogs and cats and sometimes it's just easier for them if they have a buddy hanging out with them!

“Kayla worked with me for about 2 years in a Veterinary Hospital and is a great person. She has a true love for animals and will care for your fur babies just as if they were your own.”


12. Keelee J.

“After the meet and greet with Keelee I did not stress about the process. While on vacation Keelee took care of the house and Jack was happy when we returned. Keelee sent me pics and let me know how things were going. It was super nice going out of town knowing things were being taken care of so my family could relax and have fun!! :)”


13. Briana R.

“Briana was awesome and was able to spoil our pup just as we do! Briana gave us regular updates and made sure she was taken care of! Will definitely use Briana again!”


14. Randi P.

15. Lindsey G.
About: I’ve had animals majority of my life from horses, dogs, cat and even small animals like birds and hamsters. I’ve also worked at a Veterinary Clinic for 2 years, as a veterinary assistant and in the boarding services. when working with animals with different personalities and needs, the most important is the greeting introduction, always try for a fear free and slow introduction, to ensure good relations for future meeting. I do have experience with insulin shots and giving medication in different forms (pills and liquids and injections) i work a 8-5 Mon-Fri with a hour lunch i can check in with pets and will be available any times after that or weekends i ensure to follow any rules you may have for your pets or scheduled i like to offer as many walks or potty breaks as needed and of course playing time with enrichment activities

She has taken care of cats, dogs and chickens with special needs as well. She can follow direction as to the needs of your animal.

“We had Julia for overnight stays with our two cats. She was great with our babies, very attentive, and sent us pictures daily. Our house was spotless when we returned. We highly recommend her!!”


18. Lani O.

“Lani did an exceptional dog watching my two rambunctious labs for the weekend. She was easy to get in touch with and very professional. Lani sent photos and I was so certain that my dogs were in good hands. I think they had more fun with Lani than with me because she made sure to do all their favorite activities.”

About: I love all animals ( maybe more than people) I live on a homestead where I breed and show AKC Chihuahuas, rabbits and chickens. I also am the cat rescue lady rescuing all the barn cats I can. I am experienced in all things fur I currently work full time from home but my parents also stay on my property so there is always someone available 24/7 for any task needed! Especially the cuddle puddles:) My yard is not fenced but I live on 27 acres. Out side time will be leashed for pet safety due to no fencing and me not familiar with the pet. For frequent return customers free run may be available depending on the animals proven training. ( for regular customers I can also work on training commands for an additional charge just ask me about it!!) I do crate when needed( I need to step out to the store ect) or preferred. I also have separate rooms available to separate pets as needed.
