About: I am a recently retired grandmother who has been taking care of animals for many years. I have a Catahoula and a mixed breed tabby. Animals give me pure joy and now that I’m retired, I would like the opportunity to help other families by taking care of their beloved pets. Please feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions, I look forward to meeting you and your pet. I have grandchildren who mostly live out of town so I will block time off on my calendar that I may be away from home. But because I am retired, I can commit all my time to watching your pet either in-home or if boarding. I will give your pet the same love and attention that I give my own. I will respect your rules and boundaries, but we love lap cuddles sitting on the couch, watching TV with our pets and sleeping with them if they like that kind of thing.

“Ashley took great care of our two dogs in our home for 5 days. She communicated well and even came early when I realized I made a mistake on the start time!! We will be having her come stay again on all of our upcoming trips!”


“We had to book Pamela as an emergency because the sitter we had booked wasn’t going in to see our dogs. My dogs hadn’t used the restroom in over 19 hours. As soon as we found out I contacted Pamela and she responded almost immediately and less than 10 minutes later she was at my house taking care of my dogs. She sent me pictures of them every day and kept me updated with everything. I am so grateful to her for helping me out in such short notice and she will be my dog sitter from now on ❤️”



“Lauren is absolutely amazing. I would recommend her to anyone. One of my dogs has separation anxiety and fear of people. Lauren was patient with him and won him over. Not to mention there is 2 other dogs and a cat to watch! She did great really put my mind at ease while I was away.”


“Isabella has be our Rover sitter for Lola and Rambo many times now. We would highly recommend her for anyone looking to use her services. She is timely on her arrival times, communicates all requested updates and is such a sweet person. Our dogs love it when she comes to care for them. As a matter of fact our dogs are looking for her even days after her visit is over.”


About: I’ve grown up in a household with many pets all my life, so I know how important it is to find exceptional help with looking out for them. I will tend to any of puppies needs I can help with potty training needed as well as any special diets of preference. Any senior dogs with any special requirements I’m more than happy to help. I’m willing to ask any additional questions just so I can be absolutely certain your pet is getting the exceptional care they deserve. I usually go on walks every morning out of habit, so having a furry friend with me makes walks or runs more enjoyable. I can update any owner however often as needed to ensure the safety of their pets. (Pictures included!) I’m an online collage student just looking for a way to pay for classes, and get into a nursing program later this year. Any additional questions please reach out to me I’m always available! I’m currently a collage student at Northeast Lakeview Collage , usually I do in person classes but I decided to try my classes online this semester. Since I am home I’d like to find a way of getting my school work done as well as finding a way of paying for classes. I’m always home I would say I’m more of a homebody over anything. I do like going to the gym for about an hour or two a day as well as going on walks in the morning. I live close to a Walmart less than 3 minutes away so if there’s any last second necessities I’m able to assist. I have my own vehicle to make any travel arrangements if needed. I have 2 dogs of my own, they’re both a little territorial of their backyard. I’d prefer not to have our dogs interact with other animals just to make sure all animals are comfortable under the same roof. The dog run is a large running around area the length of our house, it’s a wooden fence so the dogs maintain some comfortability. Usually we put our dogs on the side of the house if we’re going out for extended hours of the day. Regardless I can maintain both parties fairly easily. My family is very easygoing and interactive with animals, especially dogs. They usually run loose in the house and are kept an occupied by toys and treats.

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with four pets of my own. I believe in spoiling dogs with affection. Expect lots of cuddles, ear scratches and cozy naps. 💜 I currently work from home full time during the week 8am-5pm. If you need to schedule early morning or evening walks during the week just let me know! I’m sure we can work something out. I am flexible Saturday and Sunday anytime, just let me know what works for you and you fur baby! When caring for your pet at home, I aim to keep things as familiar and comforting as possible. I follow routine closely. I treat every pet like they’re my own with love, respect and plenty of attention.

About: • Feeding and providing fresh water on regular schedules • Administering oral medications and supplements • Monitoring health signs (eating, drinking, energy levels, and behavior changes) • Offering comfort, affection, and playtime to reduce separation anxiety • Providing daily exercise such as walks, fetch, or backyard play I have two dogs of my own, I also currently watch my best friends dogs whenever she goes out of and others. I’ve done dog sitting for more than 15 years. I’ve been that reliable and trustworthy friend. At this point I see my friends dogs more then my friends lol. I am respectful and trustworthy in my clients homes. I always pay attention to detail of what is expected from me or asked of me.

About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I was 15. Aside from my own, I’d house sit and follow instructions for family and friends while they were away. I will have plenty of time and flexibility to take care of your animal throughout the week and weekends until school starts again in August. I can care for your animals at your house or mine! Preferably yours for your animals comfort. I’m great at following instructions and can spend as much time as you’d like.

“Victoria is one of my fur babies favorite humans. We have a young puppy in the house and Victoria has taken on the responsibility of making sure our puppy is safe and getting the food & breaks she needs. She also even was so kind & brought our heavy Chewy box 📦 in from the porch.”

Jaylen C.
“Jaylen did an amazing job taking care of our German Shepherd for a full week. She was responsible, kind, and clearly has a natural way with dogs. She took the time to learn her routine, gave her lots of attention, and kept us updated with messages and pictures the whole time, which gave us so much peace of mind. Our dog can be a bit high-energy, but Jaylen handled her with so much patience and care. When we got home, she was happy, calm, and clearly well taken care of. The house was also spotless, and everything was in great shape. We’re so thankful for the care she gave and wouldn’t hesitate to have her watch her again. Gave her a bath as well because of the rain. Highly recommend Jaylen to anyone looking for a loving and reliable dog sitter!”

I now have another bully I rescued and always can count on Alma. Definitely recommend.”

“I can’t say enough good things about Ka'rynne. They’ve been an absolute gem when it comes to walking my dog. From our first meet-and-greet, it was clear they genuinely cared and took the time to understand my pup’s personality, energy level, and walking preferences. Every walk was on time, and I always got great updates with cute pictures that showed how much fun my dog was having. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my dog was getting not just exercise, attention, and affection. I came home to a happy pup every time. I’m so grateful we found Ka'rynne—she's a total pro and clearly love what they do!”
