“Lilian was amazing! I am so thankful we met her. Very responsible - makes leaving home so much easier. Your fur babies get to stay at home and get wonderful, loving care I couldn’t have asked for anything better. I will definitely be sharing and telling other about her. I will be using her again in the future!!”

About: I have many years experience and tons of love for animals. I am most happy around animals and love to work with them. I have taken care of all ages and most health issues. I stay at home and homeschool my teenagers. I am home everyday to provide care and attention for your pet. My kids have grown up with animals and do great with them. We all love animals here and do well having them in the home. I can crate your dog if needed or requested, but I will not if that is okay. Id like them to feel at home here and be treated like my own dog is. I will follow any and all directions given to me for your pet. The goal is to make sure your pet is comfortable and feels safe. I have experience with all temperaments and will work around that however needed for everyone.
“Samantha is very personable and took excellent care of my cats while I was gone. I love getting the Rover cards with pictures, my cats seemed very happy and not as stressed as if I had to board them somewhere. I’ll definitely re-book this wonderful lady to watch my cats again!”

About: Hi there! I’ve been around dogs my entire life and can’t imagine living without them. In college, I worked for two years at a local animal shelter, where I cared for dogs and cats of all kinds. From energetic puppies to senior pets needing medication and extra attention. That experience taught me a lot about animal behavior, health, and the patience pets deserve. I now have a flexible job that makes it easy for me to check in on your pets. My dog loves being around other dogs and cats. Whether your pup needs a play buddy, a calm presence, or some TLC, I’ll make sure they’re safe, happy, and loved while you’re away I have a full time job time job that I live 5 minutes away from. I get an hour lunch where I come home and let my dog out. However, I am lucky enough to work at a flexible workplace that would allow me to drive home a couple times throughout the day if need be. I do not have a fenced in back yard, but do have a yard that my dog plays in every day. My dog Lady May, LOVES playing with other dogs. She is a very chill dog and cats alike!

“Rachel and Albert took such good care of our cat and the pictures and check ins really gave us the peace of mind we were looking for when leaving our pet in someone’s care.”

“Shayla, You were a god send to us. Thank you for taking care of the dogs. The updates were awesome. We really appreciate you and all of your help. Right on time. Spent more time with our family than we even expected. 11/10 would recommend.”

About: I worked for a kennel as a tech for three years, volunteered at a vet clinic for a year and a half, and am certified in canine first aid and CPR. I am comfortable with handling meds and can work well in high stress situations should there be an emergency. I do have an 8-5 job, however, I am more than willing to stop by in the early mornings and play in the evenings, as well as on the weekends! I have a fenced yard and no other pets currently. I go for 3 mile walks daily after work so your pups will get plenty of exercise!
“Alese was WONDERFUL! She is so sweet and kept us updated with thoughtful texts and photos of our kitties while we were visiting family. 10/10 would recommend her services to anyone needing kind, compassionate care for their pets while they are away. Thanks so much, Alese!!!”

“Tafra was amazing!!! She took great care of our boys, sent lots of pics, and went above and beyond and brought our packages inside lol. We would have her back no questions asked!”

About: Hi there! I have had a dog for 4 years and another for 2! I’m well versed in taking dogs for walks and also dropping in to give doggos any attention they need :) I currently work at an Elementary school 7:30-3 everyday, so I can check in on any dogs after work. I can also walk dogs after work! I love walking dogs at least two miles We are very meticulous about caring for our dogs, they get fed twice daily, get at least one form of exercise daily (walks, fetch, etc), bathe them monthly, and most importantly love on them a lot throughout the day
“We had such a great experience with Alexis! She is incredibly kind, reliable, and clearly has a natural way with animals. Our dogs did great with her, and even our usually skittish cat was comfortable…which says a lot. She kept us updated and gave us total peace of mind while we were away. We would absolutely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate pet sitter.”

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life. I love taking my dog for walks and playing fetch outside. I love being around dogs especially being far from home it’s a nice sense of comfort being able to see other dogs. I’m currently in school part time. So I’m available all day on the weekends and then evenings during the week! But I’m pretty flexible so I’m opening to working whenever I’m needed! I will always let your dog(s) play outside for as long as they want. I follow their feeding schedule, my dog is on a strict feeding schedule so that is nothing new to me! I’m not afraid to take them on walks, as long as the weather permits. I’m willing to brush your dog and bathe if needed.
About: In 2024, I became a first-time pet parent to two amazing cats, Leia and Fig. Growing up, I never had animals in the house because my father was allergic. With that said, starting out with raising the two kittens at the time was scary and challenging. Trusting someone with your own pets can be scary or challenging. It is my goal to make the experience of watching out for your pet as easy and safe as possible. In my time as a pet parent, not only have I gained confidence in caring for other animals, such as senior dogs and fish, but I have also gained a lot of knowledge about animal behavior (mainly cats and dogs). I am confident in my ability to take care of your animal in any capacity that suits your needs, from walking to feeding that requires special attention to grooming, and so much more. While I may not have 10 years of experience, I have a full heart and am committed to learning and providing the best care for your family member. I am currently a part-time student so I will have time sprinkled throughout the week to take care of your pet! Typically, Tuesdays and Thursdays are my "days off", but I am more than flexible. During weekdays, anytime after noon works best. On weekends, I am usually available from morning to evening times all around! I always want to respect the home, the homeowner, and the pet I am taking care of when in the space to work. Saftey and comfort of the pet is my #1 priority and I take precautions to make sure the pet is well fed, comfortable in the environment, and that any restrictions are met.
About: For as long as I can remember, I have always had a dog by my side. Growing up, my cousins raised Pit Bulls, and French Bulldogs. Additionally, my mom worked for Hills Pet Nutrition. As I grew up I had the opportunity to learn many beneficial training tips from her! Along with having two dogs myself, I was also a dedicated 4-H member prior to college. Within 4-H, I had the opportunity to excel in the training department, where my dog qualified for state seven years in a row, ending her career with a state championship along with a reserve champion title. Outside of working with my own dogs, I had the opportunity to become a junior leader, helping children with their training needs as well. Outside of 4-H, I worked at Dog Day Afternoon Resort & Spa where I spent everyday with over 30 dogs! Here, I was either in a room full of 10+ dogs at a time, greeting parents and dogs, or caring for 20+ private care dogs at a time. Additionally, while at home, I was a dedicated dog-sitter for a number of years. From Pit Bulls, to French Bulldogs, Rottweilers, Chihuahuas, Labs, Heelers, and everything in between, I have EXPERIENCE! Are you looking for someone who is fully versed in senior & puppy care, administering medications, training, health & wellness, and special needs care? I'm your go to gal! Currently, I am a full time college student and I am also a member of the FHSU Rodeo Team. I have a pretty flexible schedule, just reach out! As a pet sitter, whether caring for pets in my own home or in the client's home, I prioritize the well-being and comfort of your pets. This consists of initial consultation, play-time, maintaining routines, feeding, security, and comfort and affection.
About: Traveling physical therapist with availability to take care for your furry loved ones! I recently had my pup pass away and I’d love to have another 4-legged cutie to hangout with and love. I loved my pup and would love to get to know yours as well! I work full-time M-F, but am home by 5 every weekday. Full availability on weekends. I enjoy being outside and being active. Pretty basic schedule for me! I can easily crate your dog if needed and take them outside to my large yard. I also like to take dogs to the dog park to run around and play.
About: I have vet clinic experience, farm experience, and more! I love animals! I have taken care of all breeds for over 6+ years! I know what to do incase of an emergency so your pets will be safe with me! I am a stay at home working mom! so I will be home ALL DAY with your fur babies! We will have designated times for all pets to play and have one on one time with me and can even socialize with other pets if you’d like them to! I have a very large fenced in yard. In our back yard we have put up a large indoor/ outdoor facility for your pets to stay comfortable! We have kennels of all sizes for your fur babies to rest in and tons of room to run and play safely!!
“Kaitlyn was great! She came over and met my dogs before the booking, which I appreciated. I got lots of pics of my crazy puppers while she watched them. I can tell they had a good time. I’ve already booked with her again. ? Thanks Kaitlyn!”
