“This was my first time leaving my two dogs with someone other than family. Kailyn did an amazing job with my two dogs who have a lot of behavioral issues that require special considerations (feeding and walking separately, medications, etc). She sent me pics and videos of the dogs too. Highly recommend!”


“Jamie took such good care of our two special needs dogs while we were away for a long trip. She’s super flexible, sent lots of updates and pictures, and we will absolutely have her watch the boys again! Thanks, Jamie!!”


“Elizabeth was amazing. It's not easy going away worry-free on vacation, but she nailed it. I didn't leave her with any instructions and she handled everything flawlessly. Even exceeded expectations. Cannot recommend enough!”


“Thank you, Gabby, for taking such good care of our Siberian Huskies. I was very nervous to leave my girls, especially our 10year old who was just diagnosed with cancer. We needed a weekend getaway to celebrate our anniversary and just to relax. You set our minds at ease with photos and consistent communication. I hope my 6-page manual book wasn't too much. LOL. We are looking forward to having you dog sit again. Khaleesi and Freyja say Woooo Woooo.”


About: What sets me apart? I treat every pet like family. With years of hands-on experience, a calm home environment, and a deep love for animals, I focus on consistency, comfort, and clear communication. I maintain your pet’s routine, send regular updates, and ensure they feel safe, loved, and right at home. We also do late night walks and play time. It’s my full time job! I board dogs and do daycare at home and go to peoples houses for drop ins and we also do overnights! The dogs have their own room dedicated to them, safe from being able to get into anything. We also have cameras to be able to check on dogs at all times. In a clients home we maintain calmness with fun and spend ample time with them while owners are away.

About: Hi there:) My name is Madison! I have experience running a kennel, so I am trained in medication and vaccinations! I have brief experience with obedience training if you have special needs for your pup. My life revolves around animals and I would love to help create a safe and fun environment for your fur child while you are out! I treat all animals like they are my own, so your pet will get all of the love that i give my fur kids. They will have fun playing in the yard and going on walks, we do a ton of training throughout the day and play with our Barkbox toys! I will be the only one handling your babies:) I currently work in law enforcement and am always out and about. I love working in the community and am able to take a breath during my work day to go love on some lil pups. I am always house sitting for family and friends and do my best to make sure the pets are safe and happy in their most comfortable environment. I will be the only one who will be handling your pets!

“Erin watched our 2 large Shiloh Shepherds for 3 days (overnight) and she was wonderful! She took great care of our boys, took time to play with them outside, and gave them lots of love and cuddles. She also sent tons of photos, which was greatly appreciated. Our dogs seem to miss her already! Erin also left our house in great shape and was very communicative during the process. Would absolutely have Erin dog sit for us again!”


About: I have taken care of Seniors, Baby-sat, and have pets. I’ve had several years in customer service and am a responsible college student that goes to a classical Christian college called Grove City College. Walking, cleaning, and feeding pets has been a part of my life for several years. I think what is more telling is my commitment to menial tasks everyday. I am a reliable, disciplined, and routinely individual. In my clients home, I will consistently play with their pets. I’ve had prior expirence taking care of pets and really love animals. I also feed them and walk them on a schedule.

About: Animals have always held a special place in my heart—especially after caring for my own sweet Bella, who bravely faced mouth cancer until she passed in December 2023. Helping her eat, move, and feel loved during that time taught me patience, compassion, and the true meaning of care. I also care for Bulleit, our Frenchie, who’s overcome two spine surgeries and may not walk like he used to, but still lives every day with joy and spirit. With over 5 years of experience, I treat every pet like family—giving them the love, attention, and gentle support they need. Whether it’s slow, comforting walks, playtime, or quiet cuddles, I’m here to make sure your furry friend feels safe, happy, and truly cared for. I can’t wait to meet your special companion and be their loving second best friend. I currently work second shift from 4 PM to 12:30 AM, so my mornings and afternoons are free—perfect for walks, playtime, feeding, and giving your pet plenty of attention during the day. I’m also fully available on weekends, making it easy to provide consistent care and companionship whenever your furry friend needs it most. This schedule allows me to focus on making sure every pet I care for feels happy, loved, and well looked after throughout the day. Whether caring for pets in their own home or mine, safety and trust are my top priorities. I create a calm, secure environment where pets feel comfortable and relaxed. I always follow the pet parent’s instructions closely—whether it’s about feeding, medication, or special needs—and make sure to keep dangerous items out of reach. At my home, I provide a pet-friendly space with plenty of room to play and rest, free from hazards. In your home, I respect your space and routine, keeping everything just as you like it while giving your pet loving attention and companionship. I’m attentive to each pet’s behavior and needs, ready to respond calmly to any situation, ensuring they stay safe, happy, and stress-free at all times.

“Brianna stepped in as an emergency sitter for our dogs while we were on vacation. She didn’t hesitate to come to their rescue last minute. Our dogs (or us) never had the opportunity to meet her beforehand and we came home to happy dogs! I can’t express my gratitude enough and the fact she was able to give me the peace of mind that I needed.”


About: My passion for any and all animals has always been a huge cornerstone of my life. I’ve learned when it comes to taking care of my own pets but also my neighbors, friends and families pets over the years, during the day and overnight, what’s been the most important aspect of this work, is having integrity and loving the pets as I would my own. I’m currently working mornings and early afternoons at a groomers. I’m typically available anytime after 4pm weekdays and available all day during Saturday and Sunday. I have a dog and cats of my own so your babies will be in good company! There is a lovely walking trail beside my residence I take my dog for walks on everyday if taking care at my residence. If taking care at your residence I will utilize all normal routines the babies are used to everyday.

About: I have been around animals my whole life. I find joy training puppies and older dogs (if they'll allow me to of course). I enjoy being outside more than inside and being able to see the doggos smile just for being outside. I'm a flexible mom of 2 whom both play sports, travel and for their school. I adjust my time around my families schedule which gives me a lot of flexibility during school hours and most evenings. I will care for your animals as if they were my own. As a mother, nurturing is something I love to give to those who cannot speak for themselves. I believe all animals play a very important role in all families whether it be service animals, friendship, to travel buddies.

About: I have lived with dogs my whole life and have helped care for and train them since I can remember. My family and I have helped foster 5 greyhounds and babysit for friends somewhat regularly. I have plenty of free time for babysitting pups! I'm available weekdays and weekends, any time of the day, just let me know at least a day ahead of time and I'll make sure to make time to take care of your pets! I have a large fenced in backyard for your dogs to play in as well as a very friendly australian shepard to keep your dogs company (however if need be I have enough room that they could be separated), we also have chickens and an outside cat that both stay mostly out front. I have multiple large kennels in case those are needed as well. There's a pool in our backyard, however I make sure to closely monitor any pets that aren't used to pools.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 10 and have always had a heart for animals. I now take care of my own farm and it is an absolute joy. I love animals and being able to provide services to people and their pets. I have a very flexible schedule to ensure your pet is getting the proper care and attention it deserves. Pets are family and deserve to be treated like it! I have two acres fenced in, so your pup can get plenty of fun and exercise. I have a golden retriever who loves to play with other dogs and will be happy to keep your pet company, along with a sweet outdoor dog and cat on my farm. Your dog will have full access to my home and yard while being supervised, and can easily be crated if that is what you prefer. Caring for pets is my only job, and it is my priority to make everyone feel safe, loved, and comfortable when in my care. If there is anything extra I can do to ensure your pet has fun, I make sure to do it. I love giving homemade treats (if approved), filling up the kitty pool so they can swim, etc. I don’t want dogs to just stay at my home, I want to provide an experience for them!

“Kathy has been absolutely wonderful to work with! I have two dogs, a senior Vizsla and young Boston Terrier. I hired Kathy to pet sit for three days, several hours each day. Kathy went above and beyond to make my pets feel comfortable! She engaged with them, sent pictures throughout the day and let me know how they were doing. She also had great communication prior to the booking. I will definitely hire Kathy again.”


About: I am responsible, respectful, and reliable. I have taken care of pets for as long as I can remember. I’m not going to let you down. I am semi retired and available most days. I do have some physical limitations, but we can address them as needed if that would be an issue. I can just let them out and check for food and water, I can take them for a walk, and I can work with special needs. The idea is that you feel comfortable knowing that you’re pet is safe and happy.

She’s our go to dogs-sitter (and babies-sitter at the same time) when my husband and I go for a date or out of town. Every time she comes over, our dogs wag their tails and very happy to see her. We are comfortable of her watching our kiddos (paw babies and hoomans) anytime if need to. Sherrie is extremely knowledgeable and is our go to person if we have any questions or need an opinion about anything pertaining to dogs. She provides such a wonderful, thoughtful, and caring service...you can't get that just anywhere. Our family is blessed to have her in our lives.”
