“Excellent communication, caring, affectionate, loving, respectful, and sincere. I felt released that Holly sends several videos and pictures while I was out of town. Holly is a great job!! Awesome!!”

“Here’s a polished positive review you could use: Kristen was absolutely wonderful watching my two boy dogs while I was on vacation. She was friendly, reliable, and very communicative throughout the entire stay, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. She kept me updated regularly and was always quick to respond to messages. Most importantly, my boys absolutely loved her! It was clear they were well cared for, happy, and comfortable in her care. I would highly recommend Kristen to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive pet sitter, and I would gladly book with her again.”

“What a relief to have found someone who will love our Campbell as much as we do! Karen was easy to get ahold of and communicate with. She sent me pictures and updates the whole time we were gone. Campbell made a 4 legged friend and also some more people to as to her list of favorites. Will definitely book again!”


“Carrie was kind, concerned for the welfare of my pups, very encouraging and reassured me that she was making them a priority. They were happy and the terms of our Boarding worked out perfectly! I would recommend her to anybody in the Springfield area!!”

“Ozzie really enjoys going to Pamela’s house. He loves the walks and all the love that he receives. Thank you for making him feel welcomed when he comes to your house.”

“Sarah & Todd are amazing pet sitters. Sarah’s communication is great. I felt very comfortable bringing out pets into their beautiful home. She sent lots of updates and was very communicative.”

“Shannon picked up and dropped off Buddy (as I cannot drive). She sent a few notes letting me know he was adjusting and eating well. She assured me he was "a Good Boy" while he was on vacation!”

“Kimberly was great! It was my first time using this app and leaving my dog in the care of a stranger. But my pup was right at home as soon as she arrived. Kimberly sent the cutest photos and updates. I knew my pup was in good hands. And when I went to pick up my pup, she was excited to see me but went back inside like she was totally down with not leaving.”

“Sarah is incredible! We were able to enjoy our vacation worry free, knowing our puppers are in good hands! She went above and beyond to make their stay great. I’m almost worried they won’t want to come home with us haha. Very thankful for the frequent updates and pictures as well, we will not book with anyone else!!”

“Lindsay is so kind, attentive, and friendly! Her love of animals is very evident, and she will treat yours like her own during their stay. She sent lots of photos and gave good updates about our 2 dogs, we will absolutely be booking with her again.”
“Audra and her son Jordan were amazing with our dog. They kept us informed with pictures and updates, and we never worried once because we knew our sweet pup was in caring, loving hands. Great experience from start to finish!❤️🐶”

“Our dog had a quick first stay with Nate and he did an awesome job with her. He went above and beyond walking her, and she spent time running around in his backyard. She came home exhausted and happy!”

“Kari is a rare find!!! I am new to the area and have used Kari a few times. Her and her husband are very kind and great to my dogs. My dogs used to come home from being boarded at a facility and sleep for days from being so stressed. I pick them up from Kari’s and they are ready to play!?!! Highly recommend ❤️❤️”

“Ben did an amazing job watching our dog ❤️. He also sent daily pictures and videos which was appreciated! He knows what he's doing when it comes to animals. We plan on using his services again in the future if possible.”

“Elisse has been an incredible sitter for my pup, Rue! She kept me updated with photos and sweet little notes while I was away. This was her 2nd stay with Elisse, She was right at home.”

About: I have spent my entire life caring for animals. Throughout my life I have had many animals from birds and Guinea pigs to cats and dogs. Koda, my youngest dog was completely trained by me in German commands. Working with dogs to learn new things is one of my favorite things to do. My oldest dog, Motley is a senior and the past couple years I have become very educated and trained on administration of medication and post surgery care. With experience from my own pets, I have many reliable references I have gained over the years that can vouch for me on my loving, dedicated, and superior care with their fur babies. I am currently a nanny and have almost completely open availability. I work Monday through Thursday during the day but can still do visits anytime! And I’m off Friday through Sunday so anytime those days as well! When visiting your home I am happy to provide any services you may need for your pet. This includes special feeding instructions, medication distribution, daily walks, baths, guaranteed playtime, and more all while treating them as my own with so much love! I am also happy to do drop in visits while you are at work or walks to get your babies steps in.
