“Jessica came to walk and feed our Schnauzer girls as promised. She sent pictures and a pee/poop report. We would definitely recommend her to care for your dogs.”




2. Deanne D.


“Deanne provided daily drop-in dog walking for my 1 year old golden puppy, Daisy. Daisy is full of energy and can be a bit much but she always seemed happy when I got home from work after having a walk with Deanne. Deanne was always flexible with hours, often accomodating change in dog walking times as needed. She always sent photos of Daisy during or after the walks. I would highly recommend Deanne for her services!!”

About: Ive taken care of dogs since I was 17. I’ve owned 4 dogs at one point. I have raised two litters of cats. I currently have one dog and one cat! I love animals and would love to help you give love to yours! Rover is my full time job so I am available! I will give your loved ones undivided attention! I will follow directions and make sure I give them lots of love and attention. I do not work currently. I only have to be at home at 2 to pick up my daughter from school. But I have a pretty open schedule. I walk my dog three times a day to ensure there aren’t any accidents at home. I have a gate in case i have to separate pets.


8. Katie P.

“Katie is wonderful! She met Dobby and he loved her. I could tell she was a doggy person right away! She took great care of my fur baby, sent pics, updates, and was very flexible with her schedule. I will be using Katie again and again for our pups walks.”


9. Amy C.
About: I tend to be able to understand a dog's motivations and emotions, and I can calm them if upset or discipline them kindly and effectively. I want to be an animal behaviorist, so I really make it a point to understand them. All dogs I have met love me, and I love them too, so it works well. Dogs are just trying their best to be a great companion, and when their companion is away, I can be there. I work well with cats and other animals, too. I have raised dogs to their old age, and I have fostered puppies. I have experience with dogs that don't want to listen very well, and dogs that listen to every word. I can look after your dog any time during the week, and occasionally during the weekend. If you have questions about my availability, feel free to ask. I am between jobs right now, so I have all the time in the world for you and your little buddies. Just let me know when! Your pets will be supervised inside the house and out. They'll receive any meals and medicines at the proper times, and go for as many potty breaks and walks as the little fellas want. You will have no mess to clean up when you return.


10. Katie S.
“Katie is very good with all animals. She is very compassionate and caring towards them. She is very responsible and willing to do whatever it takes to make sure your animals are taken care of properly.”


11. Sydney W.
“Sydney is a person that not only has strong character, but she loves all animals! Patient, responsible, kind, caring, and friendly are just a few positive words I would use to describe her! Anyone would be lucky to have her care for their pet!”


12. Jessica S.
“I have known Jessica her whole life. She is one of the most caring, loving and reliable individuals that I know. Right now, she helps me to care for my Granddaughter several days a week and she is so good to my granddaughter. Jessica loves all animals and would be a great addition to your company as a pet sitter/walker. There is no one else in the world I would trust more with my animals than Jessica.”


13. Brynna M.
About: I have taken care of all types of animals, from basic to exotic, since I was 15. I have 2 years of experience taking care of pets for just family and friends and 4 years of taking care of pets for other people :) I have plenty of time to take care of your pets!! I can do anything from pet sitting, to stopping by to let pets out or feed them! I also love taking walks and going on jogs, so bring your pet along with me would be amazing!! I am more than happy to take care of pets in your home! I have a large house, but not much of a backyard, as well as roommates, so boarding in my home may be slightly less likely, but still an option!


14. rylee m.

“Rylee is great! My dogs love her & she is such a great communicator. Always giving updates, pics, etc. I’m a repeat client as she just takes the stress out of my travels❤️!”


15. Steph K.
“Steph lives for animals. She is wonderful with all animals especially cats and dogs. She has her own dog and cat and loves spending time and playing with them any chance she has. I don’t think there has been an animal that hasn’t liked Steph!”


16. Aaron D.
“Aaron is wonderful with animals. I had him watch my cat while I was out of town and it went great. They have a special bond to this day!”


17. Mary S.
“Mary is the best!! I have an eight year old anxiety riddled Doberman who is a bit needy and misses her momma. I also have a two year old cat Karen who is full of energy! They both love Mary and enjoy her visits. It gives me great piece of mind to know that my dog and kitty are well cared for while I am away on my vacations. Even if it’s a long work day she can stop during the day to give my dog a break outside and companionship. I live in Garden Prairie and am so glad I found Mary. If you love your pets, give Mary a call. Both your pets and you will be glad you did!! Amanda”
