“Madison was great! She sent a lot of pictures and kept me in the loop! She was great at following instructions and sticking to Briley's routine all while communicating with me! Briley definitely enjoyed her time with her!”
“Sheryl is amazing! Even our older little doxy who usually doesn’t like people who visit let alone stay has a new best friend. Sheryl is very conscientious and caring of all of our needs and worries of our fur babies. It went so well that now we found her, we plan to travel a bit more knowing everything will be just fine 💜 Highly recommend (even tho I don’t want to share!)”
“We recommend Landon as a fantastic dog sitter. He sent photos and communicated consistently while we were away. Our dogs loved him, and even our neighbors noted how kind he is. Landon treated our home respectfully and followed our care instructions (including helping with our rescue dog who is recovering from heartworms!) We look forward to booking him again!”
“Emily was absolutely wonderful! She went above and beyond to ensure my babies were well cared for and loved, which is all we hope for when entrusting them in someone else’s care. Will definitely use her again!”
“Kim has become one of my FAVORITE people!! She absolutely cared for my pups just like we would (maybe better??!! Haha!!). We have a special pup that doesn’t care for new people too much, and she made her comfortable within minutes. Kim has a super sweet spirit, which is sensed by humans and animals alike. She also pays attention to detail better than most people I know, and never missed a beat on the instructions I left for her. You will not ever want anyone else to watch your fur babies again! I’m looking forward to the next time already!! ☺️”
“Sarah was wonderful, as always. This was the first time she housesat for me, but she's done daily walks with my wild dog for months. She's always great about communicating and sharing pics.”
About: My pet sitting skills are pretty diverse as young as a 13 week old kitten to a puppy that was a couple weeks old- my parents got a Covid puppy, the sweetest dachshund with the loudest bark!!! I would watch him daily for about a year straight before I moved out! I’ve lived with cats for the last two years, as well as always being around them constantly. My best friend has two of her own. (My nieces) I’m currently working part time at a restaurant in my neighborhood that is only open Wednesday through Sunday. I’ve only been getting about 2 to 3 shifts a week and would obviously like to add some income. I thought what a better way to spend my free time working a part-time job that could also be fulfilling!!! I am very intentive and will follow instruction to a T. I know that leaving your baby with someone else can be stressful, but I am here to give you peace of mind, comfort, and genuine care.
“Jadyn was wonderful with Hera. I appreciate accommodating my need for extra time. She was great with keeping me up to date on Hera's daily activities. I will definitely book again!”
“Our pups had such a great time with Colleen. They enjoyed their daily walks and lots of cuddles. We love when Colleen watches our pups because we know they are in great hands.”
“Sharleen was great with our fur babies! We have a newly adopted rescue and he can be a bit challenging at times when it comes to potty training and his fear of never being left alone. Sharleen was amazing with him! We’ve seen in the past that he would act out when we would leave for a day and come back but this time, he was happy and chill. I really enjoyed the pictures Sharleen sent throughout the day as a check in. We would definitely hire Sharleen again to watch our pups if she’d like to come back. 😊”
About: I’ve grown up with a small dog for 12 years and taken care of family and friend’s dog. I can walk, bathe, feed, relax, and play with them! I work from home so my schedule is fairly flexible. I can make myself free after work to take care of your fur babies as well! I have a large fenced backyard and live in a quiet and friendly neighborhood. I am a type A person and will always have an eye on them especially if outside during the heat. I have no children and no pets so your pup will have my heart the entire time 💜
About: My mom has been a dog groomer for as long as I can remember, so I’ve grown up around animals and learned how to care for them from an early age. I offer dog sitting, walking, washing, and am happy to help with any other care your furry friend might need. Ask me about my loyalty program! I’m currently attending school at TSTC, so my education is my top priority. However.. with that being said, if you’re entrusting me with your pet(s), I will always go above and beyond to treat them like my own. Most weekends, I’m fully available. I am comfortable around animals and I respect their space. Every animal is different with their own needs and quirks, so my goal will be to make them feel safe, happy, and comfortable.
About: I have always been a devoted dog lover, and nothing makes me happier than spending time with dogs of all breeds and sizes. Whether your pup needs a leisurely stroll, an energetic run, or just some extra love and attention, I’m here to provide reliable, caring, and punctual service. You can count on me to treat your furry friend as if they were my own—with patience, kindness, and plenty of tail wags along the way! Let me help keep your dog happy, healthy, and well-exercised while giving you peace of mind. I’d love the opportunity to care for your pup—reach out anytime! Availability: • Monday–Friday: 6:00–6:30 AM, 6:00-9:00PM • Saturday & Sunday: Available anytime I work full-time but can stop by for walks/pop-ins in evenings during the week or at any time over the weekend. Let me know what works best for you and your pup! I will treat your pets like my own, ensuring they feel loved, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. Let me know if I can answer any questions.
About: I've taken care of dogs of every kind since I was a young child. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets. I'm currently working part time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I'm available for boarding at anytime Tuesday through Friday. I have a fenced yard and one friendly dog to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed. Special requests are subject for review.
About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals from dogs and cats, to hamsters and chickens. I am very passionate about animals and making them feel comfortable while their family is gone. I am currently working at a restaurant that closes at 9, so dinner may be a bit later than usual, but breakfast will always be on time! Once school starts back up, I will be able to visit at more normal times to keep their schedule the same. No matter the service I always treat animals with respect and kindness. I can be patient and calm when they are acting up, and I can also play with them when it’s playtime! I love the outdoors and walking, so I like to walk between 1-3 miles when I have the time. If they are younger I don’t mind taking them on longer walks so they can see “the real world” haha!
“Taylor was so kind to come watch our dogs last minute! They were very thankful to have someone love them while we were out on the lake! She sent updates and photos, and comforted our little puppy during the fireworks! 10/10 recommend Taylor! Ultimate dog lover!”

“Cassidy is THE most WONDERFUL pet sitter EVER!!! The care, attention to detail, follow up, professionalism, and the love she has for her job and her furry clients are just a few shining examples of her superior work ethic. We travel for work and are out of town 5 to 10 days. I can be away and not worry about our Beau knowing she is there taking care of and giving the best of care to him. There was a thorough interview before she took the job and everything is covered to insure the best quality care will be given to your pets and I assure you it is given. Your pets will be given the best of care. We love receiving pictures and updates from Cassidy while we were away. Beau always enjoys their walks, playtime outside and lots of cuddles. All I can say is WOW, I am so totally impressed! I need never look for any other pet sitter or kennel ever again. I have found the VERY BEST!!!!”
