“Angel is wonderful and I would definitely recommend her! She provided half a day of care for our fur baby while we were at the Ark Encounter. It was a last moment request for our spur of the moment plans — she responded quickly and professionally. She was available and willing even though it was for the next day/Saturday morning. Being within a 30 minute drive from The Ark Encounter was a huge bonus for us. We arrived with our 6 lb., 6 year old Yorkie and she showed immediate comfort being around Angel and her young child. We asked that children not have unsupervised time alone with our fur baby as she is small, delicate and can express anxiety — Angel assured us she would be careful, give our pup her own bedroom with the door closed for quiet time, and take her for walks herself. She checked in with us during the stay, and when we arrived to pick up, our fur baby was calm, not expressing any anxiety and was well cared for (we do raw feeding and Angel had no issue keeping the container of food nuggets refrigerated and feeding at the correct time). Angel was very welcoming and made me feel comfortable leaving our fur baby in her care. I would highly recommend her. 5 +stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Karen was easy to work with, helped me feel very comfortable leaving my pups long term and was really good to them. I was sent pictures daily and could see how comfortable they had gotten and how much fun they were having with other pups. I plan to use Karen as a sitter in the future.”
“Tammi was absolutely amazing and we will definitely be using her again when we have to leave Knox!! She shared pictures throughout Knox's stay and kept us updated on his daily activities and play time with other pups. He had the BEST time and honestly was a little sad to come back home... LOL!”
“Gabrielle was amazing with our little Izzy. She was treated just like family and got to have great socialization with their dogs and cats! I loved the videos that she sent us of Izzy having fun playing with them. I most certainly recommend leaving your pet with her! I most definitely will be using her again!”
“Our pups had a wonderful time and we got lots of pictures and updates during their stay! Mike was really communicative and the dogs were happy and tired when we picked them up. Would happily have them bunk up here again.”
“First time that I used this app to find a sitter for my pet and was very pleased in the care that Whitney provided. She sent updates and pictures each day which was very nice.”
“We haven't left our dog very much so we were a little nervous about how he would do away from us for two days. Ruth was fantastic. She was flexible with our arrival time and very communicative, both before, answering all our questions, and during our dog's stay, sending pictures and a video of him. Our dog loved the backyard and seemed calm and content when we picked him up. We highly recommend Ruth and would definitely have her keep our dog again!”
“Darla was fantastic! She treated our fur babies like her own. She sent photos and updates daily. She communicated very well and is an excellent boarder. Her yard is completely private and fenced in and she requests vet records to ensure the safety of all animals. We found our furever sitter!!! She will take amazing care of your babies.”
“Melissa watched my Kramer who is 16yrs old and blind. She was very understanding of his condition and any issues that may have come with it. I’m very grateful for Melissa and her kids understanding.”
“We love Karen!! She goes above and beyond to take care of our dog!! We get pics of him and updates on how he's doing, which means a lot when you are far away! She is the best and spoils him rotten! I highly recommend Karen!!”
“Our two dogs were in good hands with Lauren & Joseph. We needed boarding while the family went on a Spring Break trip, and we felt reassured by the daily photos and updates we received from Lauren.”
“Mariah and her family took excellent care of Harper during her visit. Mariah was flexible, responsive and super friendly. Mariah made sure Harper felt at home and I am appreciative Harper had the opportunity to play with her furry friends there!”
“Amanda and her family did a great job taking care of my dog -Sam. Sam is a 4 months puppy. He needs a lot of attention and has lots of energy. Amanda’s very patient to take care of him, and sent me pictures. Sam had a great time in Amanda’s place while I was out of the town, played a lot with Tucker and Maya. I’ll definitely return if I need a sitter in the future.”
“Rachelle and her husband eased every anxiety I had about leaving our girl behind while we went on vacation! We received several daily updates, very quick responses, and so many pictures — we loved seeing her while we were gone. If there is ANYONE you should trust with your baby it’s them! They were truly so amazing that I would be willing to plan a vacation around their schedule just to ensure our baby will be in the best care.”
About: I have experience with a variety of dog breeds and ages as well as cats and other pets. I was a professional dog walker/cat sitter in Chicago and I had a farm in Indiana with lots of different types of animals. Right now my schedule is very flexible. I am away some weekends and holidays but will let you know about those with plenty of notice. I have a five year old goldendoodle named Claude. Claude is a high energy dog who exercises me every day. I've also had best friend beagles (Dobbs and Darla), a King Charles cavalier spaniel (Milo), labs (Pudge and Buddy), and fostered a schnauzer (Mrs. Beasley). We have had cats (Toulouse and Mr. Munster). I also had chickens, ducks, turkeys and rabbits when I lived on a farm. My availability is very good; I don’t work outside my home. I’m happy to have a long term set schedule or provide the occasional service you may need. Your pet would not meet my goldendoodle Claude unless you want your dog to have socialization opportunities; if that is the case, I can walk Claude along with your dog.

Carly S.
“Carly and her daughter used to co-sit my late cat Freebird (2010-2020, R.I.P.) for about three years. Freebird didn't have a lot of contact with people, but she took an instant liking to Carly, which told me right away that she is a natural with pets. I could trust her to be in my home while I was away. Freebird needed a little extra care in her last few months, and Carly handled that with sensitivity. Her dog Claude is a lovable goofball who's obviously crazy about her, so I know she would do well with both dogs and cats. I would definitely recommend her.”
