“Clara loved her stay with Kryz! There were plenty of dogs to keep her busy! Kryz responded quickly to all texts and even sent a video so we could see how well our fur baby was doing.”


“Jamie did a great job with my sister's and my dogs. They clearly were comfortable and her communication was great! Thanks Jamie, highly recommend!”


“Such a sweet family Krysten took my guy at the last minute for the whole afternoon into the evening and clearly he enjoyed himself. She sent a video and a photo just the kind of home you want your best buddy to to be in when he can’t be with you.”


“She was super nice and graceful with my last minute request and my unintentional late pick up! My pup loved her (and that says a lot she's an introverted dog)!! Highly recommend her! I will definitely be requesting her in the future to watch my pup again!”


About: I would love to take care of your fur babies in our ‘pups paradise’! I live just a few minutes West of Sioux Falls on 20 acres! There is plenty of room for your fur babies to run, play & enjoy some time in the country! I have tons of experience caring for critters of all ages… from young to elderly… low energy to tons of energy…. and the super social to not so social. I love them all! I am currently working from home which allows me the opportunity to take extra special care of your four-legged family members. This includes time outside & plenty of play time! I have a very large, fenced backyard where your pups can run and play! Whether they are social and enjoy playing with others or appreciate a little more solitude, I can adjust the space to meet their needs and keep them safe & comfortable while you’re away!

“Anna and her family are great! We used her daycare services while we had some work being done at our house and she was super flexible when we needed to adjust days last minute. Anna takes such good care of our pup, I highly recommend her!”


About: I’m a Pawfessional Sitter at Your Bark & Call 🐾📞 With years of paws-on experience, I provide reliable, attentive, and compassionate pet care. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. I treat every fur baby like my own. Your pet’s comfort and well-being are my top priority—because to me, they’re not just animals, they’re family. So if you’re looking for someone who’s reliable, loving, and knows how to speak fluent woof, I’m your go-to human! I will make sure your pet feels right at home—even when you’re not. I am a stay at home mom so my schedule is flexible. Evenings and weekends my husband helps with our toddler so my availability varies with my sidekick in tow but if your dog is comfortable with little kiddos, I’m happy to help any time! :) In my home, most dogs know they’re being dropped off and I like to provide time and space for them to explore the house and then introduce them to their new furry friends in the backyard. I feed our dogs separately and this also allows me to monitor food intake and is safest for adding a new pup to the mix. If I have to run an errand during the day, my small dog feels more comfortable in his crate but my big dog is trusted to hang out in the house. I’m happy to do whatever you feel is best for your dog should I need to leave the house briefly. When I care for dogs in their own home, I’m focused on respect and safety. It’s your house, your rules. New dog, new cues. :) You are trusting me to not only enter your home but to care for your pet. I take that seriously.


“One of the VERY FEW people we trust to watch our pups.💛 Always quick to respond & is great with updates too! They love hanging with her pup & are always so excited when we pull up to her house!”


“When we pulled up to Jordon’s house for day care, Sylbie drug me up to the door. Pulled me right up there. She was excited for the day ahead. Thank you to Jordon and her family for the excellent care for our pet!!!”

“Jesse was very accommodating for a last minute booking. My pup was well looked after and had a crush on her husband!”



About: I have a passion for people, dogs and animals alike!!! I have spent 7 years in health care at Sanford Health in the Emergency Department caring for people. Since having my 3 girls I have decided to stay home full time as I don’t want to miss these moments. I would love to care for your pup (child) when you can’t, due to hard work/vacations/errands all of life’s demands. I know how it feels to want to trust someone with what you consider your “baby”! Now that I am a mom myself and with my background I can assure you they will be in good hands! I’m very active, hard working and engage in relationships. I believe dogs need this just as much as humans, we have 1 furr babe Winnie, she is a Shihpoo, so I assure you your fur baby will get the attention, time, and walks/runs he/she needs to the fullest! I hope to have the opportunity to love and care for the one you love and care for! I enjoy sending pictures of all of the fun activities we do together as well as keeping a schedule of what you do at home to make everything as smooth and comfortable as I can for your loved one! I believe in time, attention, compassion, care, support, encouragement, growth and LOVE LOVE LOVE!!! Thank you for entrusting me ! I am home full time with my girls so you’re fur baby will get all of the time and attention he/she needs. I’m used to running around all day taking care of my girls needs so we’d love to add some fur babies we can take care of! I have a fenced backyard for your loved ones to play in. We enjoy walks as well! The girls will love on your fur babies as well ! I am home all day with my little girls and 1 fur baby, Winnie. We love all pups and have all the time in the world to make sure they’re cared for here! Playing fetch in home and lots of pets and snuggles!! The girls love their puppies!

About: I’ve lived my entire life with pets of some kind. Dogs and cats. I have had my own dogs for over 10 years and have never let one I don’t love! I work from home all but one day a week so I am home with my dogs all day and am able to let them out, feed them, snuggle them whenever they need! I have a fenced yard and 2 smaller dogs that love making friends. I am home all day but one a week so am able to make sure they are attended to with all their needs!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and caged animals since I was little. I also worked at Petco grooming for a few years. We have 2 Chihuahuas of our own, 2 Sphynx and an Axolotl. I am a stay at home mom so my schedule is flexible and open most days. Just let me know what you need and we can work it out! I will care for your pet in your home how you request me to. In our home we are very careful to not let our animals out loose, we take them on a leash if they aren’t in the yard and kennel our dogs when we leave.

About: I love all animals but dogs have a special place in my heart. I grew up with two Schnoodles (schnauzer-poodles). I helped train one of them including potty training and tricks like sit, shake, roll-over, and spin. I hope to one day foster dogs who need homes. I also have experience caring for cats and birds. I just graduated from the University of Nebraska Medical Center nursing program. I will begin my career as a nurse in Sioux Falls starting in July! I will let you know what days and times I am available! When caring for pets, their well-being is my top priority. I do this by ensuring a safe and happy environment. I always make sure they are getting lots of playtime and love while their owners are gone. I will feed them according to their needs and give lots of potty breaks.

“Alexandra was very accommodating and was able to watch our dog last minute after our previous arrangement fell through. Gouda had so much fun playing with Charlie in her fenced in backyard!”

I keep things tidy, follow your instructions, and make sure your pets feel safe and at ease. I send regular updates and pet selfies (please tell me if I'm annoying) so you’re never left wondering how things are going.
