“Thank you so much James! You've been amazing with my baby Milo making swim and taking good care of him.”
“Mychelle is amazing! Her services consistently give us peace of mind that our fur babies are taken care of on days when we are gone all day! She always gives full details regarding her visits & the dogs are always happy to see her!”
“Min took great care of my pups! I loved all of the videos that she sent and I could tell that my puppies loved her even though they only went on a few walks with her. She also messaged me every time she arrived at my place and every time she was leaving, she would send a video of her locking my door so that I knew that everything was secure. She was so great. I will definitely book her again!”
“Theodore loves Courtney! She’s always punctual and beyond reliable.”
“We had Megan come in the morning for a walk and in the evening for a check-in. This is the fourth time we have used Megan. We have always been happy with how she handles Finley Magee. We highly recommend Megan, and we will continue to have Megan watch Finley. This was the longest we spent time away from Finley Magee. It was hard for us to leave your 4-legged baby and I know it would be hard for our pup too. Megan put us at ease with her detailed progress reports during each visit. Megan’s knowledge, flexibility, compassion, and patience is incredible. By day 3, Finley was jumping around and excited to see Megan. We are very fortunate to have Megan help us with Finely Magee!”
“Skylar was very communicative with me prior and after taking my two dogs for their walk including with photos! During the booking, there was bad weather at the time (freeze) but offered playtime instead as a substitution to the walk since the temperature was too extreme for their paws. I greatly appreciated the offer and so did my doggy girls! They love her and will definitely be booking again!”
About: I have had all kinds of dogs including; french bulldogs (currently own 2), pit bulls, a Havanese (currently own), a border collie, golden doodle, and a chihuahua. I’ve had experience with a wide range of different dogs and have personally trained 2 of my own. I currently am attending esthetician school. My schooling is at 8:30 am-5:30 pm Monday-Wednesday. Dog walking and dog/cat check-ins, currently work the best with my schedule. Thursdays-Sundays I am ready to care for your pet whenever I am needed! When it comes to my dog, I always try to accommodate her needs. She gets plenty of walks and receives all the nutrients she needs from the food and healthy snacks I provide her. Her fur gets matted easily, so I make sure to brush her hair at least twice a week.
About: I have taken care of dogs for 5 years I love having them with me my family and friends are completely sure that we will lack love and care I am at home all day taking care of my baby and my dog. I can dedicate myself to make your stay at home fun I have a fenced in yard and a female dog that can keep your pet company. I can take care of it with a lot of love
About: I've owned dogs for 50 years. My love of dogs has even trickled down to my grand daughters, who actually call me Dogpaw instead of grandpa, lol. (that is true, btw) I am retired and actually prefer the company of animals to humans these days. Being retired gives me a lot of flexibility. My home is equipped with a dog door (medium size - up to probably 40 pounds can come and go as they please to the fenced backyard. I am 70 years old and retired from the music business. I have owned dogs every year for the last 50 years, though to be fair, my last two dogs were Terriers that lived to be 19 and 18, so just two for the last 37. I have lots of experience recognizing dogs' illness or need to see a vet. We have a great walking area less than a block from our house with a small park area. I have a fenced backyard and as mentioned, a nice, nearby walking area and neighborhood. My house has a dog door that allows most dogs up to 40 pounds or so easy access to the backyard. I typically walk most weekday mornings for a couple of miles, if the dog's ae and condition allow.
“I am so thankful for Wesley! I injured my knee and haven’t been able to walk my dog. I could tell she was getting depressed. Then I found Wesley and he is really nice and so good with my dog. Now when Wesley comes to take her for a walk she is so happy and excited!! I am happy for her :) Thank you Wesley!!”

Whether it’s daily walks, overnight care, or just some extra love while you’re away, I provide a safe, calm, and happy environment. I pay close attention to each pet’s unique personality and needs, and I always communicate clearly with pet parents for peace of mind. I’d love to meet you and your furry friend! I work from home, which means my schedule is very flexible. I’m usually available seven days a week and can typically accommodate last-minute bookings or changes. I know how important it is to have someone reliable and attentive caring for your pets while you’re away. When I’m pet sitting or doing drop-ins, I stick closely to your usual routines, whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or medications…so your pets feel safe and at ease. I keep their space clean, give them plenty of attention, and make sure they’re as comfortable as possible until you return.
About: Animal lover with years of pet experience. Reliable, friendly, and ready to give your furry friends all the love and care they need. I have two golden retrievers of my own and we love going on walks together! I pet sit my neighbors five cats anytime they go to vaca so I have all the experience of pet sitting others furry friends!! I am currently a full time student at the University of Arkansas so my weekday afternoon are pretty full but I am happy to take a doggie on a walk after my classes, after 3 most days, and completely open on the weekends to sit and walk and play with your animals!! Being a freshman in college I live in a dorm so I am unable to have them stay with me at my place but I am more than happy to come sit at your lovely home and take them on walks and to doggie parks! I had a Great Dane back home so very comfortable walking big and little dogs on a leash.
About: I am a lifelong pet owner and animal enthusiast, and I am experienced in caring for pets with a variety of temperaments and specific needs. I have a cat and a Bernedoodle of my own, and I've been pet-sitting for friends for 5+ years. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I'm an early riser or night owl as needed, and I can adjust my schedule to the needs of your animals. I can care for cats and dogs in the clients' homes. I can provide drop-in visits, overnight stays, and daytime pet-sitting. I'm happy to feed and water, play, brush, administer medicines, and clean up litter boxes/messes.
About: I have dog sat for many families and love to hangout with any animals! I have a dog so playing with animals comes easily to me! Fits in perfectly! I am going to be home from school over the summer and will have a lot of free time! I don’t have a schedule at all so I will be free at all times! I try to take my dog on a walk at least once a day! I love to spoil her and give her treats when she is good!
About: I’m a professional dog breeder. I developed this passion from watching my father breed dogs as a kid. I’ve literally had dogs my entire life, and they have always been considered family to me! I understand they each have their own personalities and the best “dog people” know how to cater to that fact and love the babies as their individual selves. I don’t know a life without dogs. So, caring for them comes naturally. With being a full time entrepreneur, I can make my own schedule, daily. As a breeder, I’m constantly doing things with my dogs. We have a daily care routine from the beginning of the day until bedtime. I even check on them throughout the night to make sure everyone is ok. I have no problem adjusting my schedule to the needs of the baby. I have a fenced in home. I also have dogs of my own who are friendly and well socialized. Your dogs can have the option of a crate for a safe space, or they can relax on the couch with me and my other fur babies. We can go on walks around the neighborhood as well. I adjust to the comfort levels of the parents and the babies.
About: Hi there! I'm Heather, and I can't wait to take care of your pets! I've been an animal lover my entire life and am the proud owner of two adorable pups. With over 15 years of pet sitting experience, I've had the pleasure of caring for all kinds of animals. I've volunteered at animal shelters, fostered dogs, and grown up with various breeds and sizes. I currently offer walking and drop-in services, ensuring your pets receive all the love and attention they deserve while you're away. Their safety and happiness are my top priorities, so rest assured they're in great hands. Feel free to reach out with any questions – I’m excited to chat with you soon! I work remotely during the week, which gives me more flexibility to check on your pets during lunch or at odd hours. I am also available most weekends. Safety is the number one priority for your pets. I will ensure that no matter where they are, they are safe and comfortable with their surroundings.
About: I have had my dog Hagen since I was 10 years old. I trained him by myself from pott trainings to crate training and even simple trick. He is very gentle and wonderful with kids and I’m so glad i’ve gotten to grow up with him. I am currently interning part time before I go to college so that leaves plenty of time to play with pups of all ages. I love getting my daily fix with dogs and can’t imagine life without them. In my clients home I will be respectful of their property and make sure I don’t let their dog out of my sight even if their yard is fenced in. Also, on walks I will keep them away from other dogs because I am unsure how they will react unless the owner has specified otherwise that they are friendly with other dogs and I feel safe doing so.
About: Growing up I always had animals around me. My childhood dog, Twinkie was a cute little yappy Pomeranian. She was a picky eater, but would always save a treat in her bowl and only ate it with me after I came home from school. In high school I volunteered at the local Wildlife Rescue where I cared for various small injured animals. I was responsible for feeding and weighing them, cleaning their cages, raising meal worms, and even got to observe surgeries. After college I lived a veterinarian so I am used to caring for random foster animals without notice. I work from home with a flexible schedule to care for animals. I can type on my computer in the same room your pet naps. I can take your pet on walks at any time needed, though I recommend mornings and evenings due to the current heat outside. I cook and clean for all of my own meals and can do the same for your pet. I can schedule cuddles or play time as needed throughout the day as well. :) I have a downstairs lounge, an upstairs living room, and a few bonus rooms in which your pet can relax. There are no other animals or plants in these areas. Crating is fine, but I prefer animals to have more space and freedom to move about. If I am coming to your home I am happy to follow any rules or special instructions you may have. During down times I will be using my laptop quietly in the same room as your pet.
“Patricia is very capable of taking care of your fur babies. I have two, a 7yr old weimerainer and a 2yr old mixed breed, high energy, squirrel chaser and they were happy when I returned. They were fed, walked and cared for. I look forward to her watching my girls in the future.”

Rachel S.
“Rachel is the biggest pet person ever! She has grown up always having animals in her house and has been the most responsible for most of those animals. She loves all animals and really cares about them being safe and happy wherever they are. My favorite thing is to see her face light up when she sees a pet walk into the room! Rachel is without a doubt the most reliable and kind person for taking care of your pet.”
Andi B.
“Andi is an extremely amazing person when it comes to the care of animals. She is always calm and loving towards them. My cat and dog both love when she comes to my house and that they get all the attention from her! She is very aware of their needs and makes sure that they get all the love in the world!”
Javun E.
“I think that Javun would make a great pet sitter because he is just so loving and gentle when it comes to all animals. The way that he has cared for his own animals over the years spoiling them to their limits speaks volumes to his love for animals. I literally call him the animal whisperer because it seems like no-matter where we go the animals are attracted to him and he gives them all the same love and affection as if they were his own! Anyone would be lucky enough to have Javun as a pet sitter. From experience I know how he goes above and beyond with taking my dog to the dog park and doing all kinds of things with him while I am out of town and he also sends cute little picture and videos to ensure me that my baby is being well take care of.”
Heather F.
“As a pet owner, I recently had the pleasure of hiring a pet sitter for my fur babies while I was away on vacation. I was fortunate enough to find Heather, she went above and beyond my expectations!! Heather the took the time to get to know my dogs and she was was very attentive as I explained all about their routine, feeding schedule, their personalities, and their quirks, I could tell she really loves animals and my dogs loved her right back. She sent me regular updates and photos while we were gone which I appreciated. Heather went the extra mile and I highly recommend her. She provided top-notch care and genuine love for my dogs as well giving me peace of mind while we were gone. I will definitely use Heather again. Thank you Heather.”
Madeleine H.
“Maddie is an excellent dog sitter! She’s cared for my two small dogs multiples times while my family and I are on vacation. She goes and checks up on them every few hours, and always feeds and takes them on walks. She communicates with me extremely well, and I’m so glad to have her to take care of my dogs.”
Jason C.
“As a veterinarian, I’ve met countless pet lovers and caregivers—but few have the natural connection with animals that Jason does. He’s not just reliable; he genuinely enjoys being around the pets he cares for, and they clearly feel the same way. Whenever he pet-sits for me, I can see on our home cameras that the moment he walks in, he’ll flop onto the couch—and within seconds, both my dog and cat are curled up in his lap. It’s their favorite cuddle spot, and it’s become part of their routine when he’s around. That kind of comfort and trust from animals speaks volumes. I always know my pets are in loving, capable hands when I’m away. He’s attentive, gentle, and calm under pressure—whether he’s giving meds, managing quirks in behavior, or just making sure everyone feels safe and settled. I truly wish he hadn’t relocated to Texas, because finding someone with that kind of intuitive, compassionate care isn’t easy. If you're looking for someone who treats your pets like family—and who your pets will instinctively trust—he's your person.”

Wesley is very dependable and my dog was always excited to see him :) Thank you!! We appreciate you.
Christopher & Thor had a great time. He was prompt. Thor seemed to like him. Christopher provided positive feedback, said Thor knew his commands & obeyed. I was very pleased.

Nicole was amazing with my 4 yr old dog Rosie. I'm so glad to have found her. Rosie is 80 lbs and can be nervous around other dogs so I was a little anxious about letting someone else walk her. I had nothing to fear, Nicole had a calm and capable approach and Rosie took to her easily! I'll definitely be booking with her again for both Rosie and my cats!
