We had a great experience with Roderick and his family. Since our dog is still pretty new to us, we were a little unsure how he’d do, but he warmed up to them so quickly. It was clear he was comfortable and well cared for the whole time. Roderick and his family were kind, welcoming, and treated him like one of their own. We’d definitely book with them again and highly recommend them!

Dana has been great with our dog finely. She has been watching him now for almost 3 weeks and she has been very flexible with my work schedule which I have had to adjust from day to day. Finley is comfortable in her home and I know he is taken care of while I’m at work all day.

Lucy had a fun day with Russ and the two resident dogs. She loved being outside in the yard. Russ was easy to work with and very accommodating even when I had unexpected delays. Lucy can’t wait to come back!

About: I’ve been surrounded by cats and dogs my entire life! Growing up in a family that runs a small pet transportation company, I've always had a house full of furry friends—usually 2 to 8 at a time. I’ve had the pleasure of caring for pets from feeding and grooming to giving medication and even whelping litters right here at home! Currently, I work from home and have regular breaks throughout the day, which means I have plenty of time to care for your dog. I'm available most weekdays for walks, playtime, and more! My daughter is also a huge animal lover and often helps out, giving extra attention and love to your pets. On weekends, we’re usually relaxing at home, so there’s even more time for walks, cuddles, and fun. Whether your pet needs a midday break or weekend adventure, you can count on us to provide the best care with plenty of love! I work from home so my animals have my full attention any time of day. I can walk, play with them and let them out any time and I have no issues. When I’m sitting a dog in my home, I like to make them feel as comfortable and relaxed as possible. They usually stay in my room where they can roam freely, and I make sure they have plenty of space to explore. I also have a large, supervised play area in the basement and a gated half acre yard, where they can enjoy toys and have some fun while staying safe. It’s all about giving them freedom to roam, play, and feel right at home!

About: I’ve taken care of pets of every kind for over 20 years! Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed, bathe, and watch over their pets. I work from home, so I have plenty of time to play with your Fur babies! I’m available for boarding all week, weekends and some holidays. They will feel at home lounging around my house. I have a large house and a fully fenced backyard with plenty of space for your pet. We own a 10 year old friendly dog we raised since a puppy to keep your pet company. The rate is higher for cats because we do not own a cat right now and would need to get proper cat equipment specifically for your cat. All pet must be crate trained for safety. We do provide crate training services for puppies but keep in mind our dog will need to be crated during your puppy’s stay with us. For safety we always pay close attention to your pet’s behavior and will provide updates with pictures to you!

About: I owned a dog for most of my life. My dog sadly passed away after fifteen great years of happiness! I watch my friend's dogs when they go out of town because I'm usually always reliable and do most of my work inside my home. I am not lazy with taking dogs on walks and I care for pets like they are my own :) I am a stay at home mom to a 2 year old so I am always home to care for your loved one. We have a fenced backyard and lots of areas to walk. I can be flexible about what your pet needs. If you would prefer them in a crate at night I’d be happy to do that but usually I love having your pets roam around my townhouse and our fenced yard!

About: I’ve been working with animals professionally since 2019, starting with dog walking before expanding into dog running, dog sitting, and general pet care. During the pandemic, I joined a “Run My Dog” program where I ran with high-energy dogs to help keep them physically and mentally stimulated when many pets weren’t getting enough activity. Since then, I’ve cared for dogs with all kinds of personalities, routines, and needs through both short-term and extended pet sitting. I also have years of personal experience from owning four large pit bulls of my own, including senior dogs and dogs with allergies, anxiety, reactivity, and strong personalities. Caring for them taught me how important patience, consistency, and trust are when working with animals. I have reliable transportation, a safe two-story home with a fully fenced backyard, and I’m home most of the day, which allows me to give pets lots of supervision, attention, and companionship. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and try to make every pet feel comfortable, relaxed, and cared for while they’re with me. Pet care fits really naturally into my daily routine because I’m home most of the day right now after graduating nursing school. Besides working short evening shifts on Thursdays and Saturdays, I spend most of my time at home, so I’m able to give pets a lot of attention, supervision, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and cuddles throughout the day. I actually enjoy having pets around because I love the routine and companionship they bring. Whether that means morning walks, sticking to feeding or medication schedules, spending time outside in the fenced backyard, or just hanging out on the couch with them, I make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. Since I’ve owned large dogs myself for years, caring for animals has always been part of my everyday life and comes very naturally to me. Safety and trust are extremely important to me when caring for someone’s pet. I know pets are family, and I always do my best to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re with me. I have experience with reactive dogs, escape artists, dogs with allergies, and large breeds, so I’m very attentive to different behaviors and needs. My home has a fully fenced backyard, I’m home most of the day for supervision, and I’m dog CPR certified. I also have quick access to emergency veterinary care nearby, including EmmaVet urgent care just minutes away, and a Regional 24 hour ER 15 minutes away. My goal is always to create a calm, safe, and caring environment where both pets and owners feel comfortable and at ease.

Lizabeth is amazing! She really has a love for pets and truly understands their needs. Our pups were happy and came back to us exhausted, as we’d hoped for. I also love how her kiddos are involved and they equally share her love for pets. I will definitely be using her services in the future.

Jen and Louis saved the day and came through for me and my chiweenie Willar when I really needed a sitter who understands my senior pup's needs. Willar has dietary restrictions and some quirks, and Jen was attentive, followed all the instructions for Willar's routine, and she asked very thoughtful questions. Additionally, her dog Louis is so welcoming and sweet. They really helped with some transitions I'm going through and were very accommodating.

Ms.. Dana has been amazing since the beginning. Our meet and greet was scheduled promptly and upon arrival she had a welcome poster with our pup’s name on it. We toured her home and our pup loved it all. He played a little in her yard and home as we talked. I had many questions about her process and she was very patient answering them without hesitation, easing any concern I had. Our first time dropping our pup off, Ms. Dana was sure to send videos, pictures and messages throughout the day. I love this part because it showed our pup happy and energetic as he normally is. It was funny to me because when I thought of me pup a video or picture would pop up from her, coincidentally. When we picked him up she gave a report about how he did, which was super helpful for me. Another time we used her she had another dog there. I was curious how our pup would connect with the other one and it turned out that he did great. Each visit, I leave little instructions with his food and treats and she’s followed them without a problem. We’ve also brought a toy or two with our pups name on it and have always gotten those items back. Because things have gone so well with daycare, we’re trying out boarding with her. I’m certain things will go well as every interaction with Ms. Dana for us and for our pup has been great! I would highly recommend using ms. Dana if you need someone. She loves dogs, cares for them well, has a great space for them to play etc. We will be using her until our pup grows out of her weight range.

Winston was happy and well cared for, and we felt totally comfortable knowing he was in good hands. Would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable sitter!
