“This was my first time using a sitter for my 2 month old puppy. Karen was very attentive and sweet. She’s super knowledgeable about pets and I felt very safe leaving my puppy with her. She also has a beautiful house with a fenced in back yard and plenty of toys and treats. Her 2 dogs get along very well with other dogs and she did a great job sending pictures, videos and updates throughout the day. I also received a report card of how many times he used the potty, ate, etc. Highly recommend!”


“Leah is exactly what we needed! Zoro always comes home fulfilled and ready to nap. She goes above and beyond and has awesome communication. So are glad we found her and her family to love him and care for him while we are working!”


About: When i start college in January, i plan to take agriculture and own a ranch/farm rescue for dogs and any animals in need. Animals are my best friend and i couldn’t ever imagine being without them. I’ve taken care of 10 dogs most of my life. My parents love animals so i’ve always been around different kind of animals. They currently have 3 bunnies, guinea pigs, 10 cocker spaniels and 1 lab, and 2 cats. When they are away i am the main person to take care of them since they also foster and i’m the oldest kid in the family. I know how to care for dogs of all sizes, breeds, temperaments and personalities. I also am experienced in special needs dogs, my parents have a cocker spaniel who has special needs and he’s the sweetest dog i’ve ever met. Me and my girlfriend do this together and she is an amazing help, she’s cared for many animals like horses, dogs, cats, and fish. she’s like an animal whisperer.. she always knows what the animal wants and needs and always tends to them. she especially knows how to make dogs feel at home. ❤️🔥🐾 I had a senior dog , izzy who had cancer and i did my best to make her feel cared for through the time she had left. I really take my time caring for dogs with special needs and who are older, they need fun and love. 🐾 What i offer : • Boarding (Overnight stays) • At your home doggie sitting • Day care • Walking • Drop in visits • Clean, and spacious home • Structured play time, nap time and lovin time • Fully fenced in yard for supervised outdoor play and potty time • A calm living space where pups are free to play and relax • Lots of squeaky toys and stuffed animals 🦴🧸 • Doggie pool for the hot summer days 💦 • 2 walks a day 🐕 if they need more we are happy to provide more walks :) I understand how stressful it can be to leave your dog with someone new. That’s why i am firm on communication. I’ll send you updates, videos and pictures so you can see how much fun their having and be comfortable having them in my hands :) I am home most of the day, there may be a time where i have to run to do an errand like grocery shopping etc. My girlfriend is home all the time so she will be home to take care of your pups. Their safety and well being always comes first 🐶 Im 18 and work from home with my girlfriend. We are available 7 days a week. I have a fully fenced in yard so your pup can play outside and be safe. My home is tidy, and very clean. We make sure everything is put away. We know how it is to have a pup that likes to put everything in their mouth so we make sure to vacuum and mop. I live in a quiet little neighborhood. My house is a very spacious 4,000 square foot home and it was a church before it was turned into a house so it’s very unique. I have a cocker spaniel and a brittany mix, they are both very sweet and love new company. My brittany is 15 so he kinda just lays around but my cocker spaniel is 3 so she loveeesss to play.

“Laura provides a great place for dogs to visit. The back yard is ideal and our two big doggies had plenty of place to burn off some energy free from our hotel room. Laura is very accommodating and experienced in handling dogs. We would definitely go back again if we’re in the area.”


“Journey stayed with Dianna and her doggies for 2 days and had the best time! She doesn't seem to want to leave when I pick her up. She's a happy girl being there! Lots of play time and outdoor time!”


About: I have a lifelong love for animals and have been fortunate to share my home with many pets over the past decade. I’ve cared for countless dogs and currently have a well-trained, friendly dog of our own. As a stay-at-home mom with a flexible schedule, I’m able to offer personalized attention to any pets in my care. We go for walks twice a day and have a spacious, fenced-in yard where we play and enjoy the outdoors when the weather is nice. I’m mindful of my schedule, ensuring that no pet is left alone for extended periods of time. Our home is pet-friendly, and we use only gentle, non-toxic cleaners and fragrances, ensuring a safe and comfortable environment for your pet to feel at ease. Pets are welcome on furniture and all parts of the home.


“Tammi is a godsend! She and her husband gave our 13-yr old rescue dog a safe, loving and spacious place to spend the day while we were enjoying nearby museums. I felt TOTAL peace and confidence with my dog in Tammi's care. Tammi has years of experience, wisdom and love for her own dogs, as well as many rescue dogs. Our dog looked so happy in Tammi's very large, totally fenced in yard. I doubt that I'll ever find another doggie day care that's as perfect as Tammi's! I highly, highly, highly recommend Tammi!”


“Ruth and her husband took excellent care of Murphy (my dog) they made their home, his home, and their fenced in back yard was wonderful for potty breaks! Thank you both so very much! You helped both Murphy and I feel right at home and so comfortable! We both enjoyed our vacation time!!! It was a real pleasure meeting you both!”


“Zeus has been going to Mary’s on and off for 10 years now. I never ever worry when she has him. He comes home tired happy and well taken care of. There is pictures and texts during the day. He is always loved like her own there. Wouldn’t recommend anyone else.”


About: I am a very experienced pet owner and caretaker, I currently have 3 dogs and 6 cats. I’m very excited to have the opportunity to work with and give some love to each and every pet I meet. I hope to provide as much assistance to every animal lover who needs a little extra help. If you ever have any questions about myself, my pets or any other concerns you may have, don’t be shy to ask, I’m happy to answer all of your questions! It’s important to me that every pet is taken good care of and given every drop of attention I have to give, as well as their parents. I currently work from home, on my own time. which makes it incredibly easy for me to plan and schedule requests, just message me and lets talk dates and times! I have a fenced in yard for playtimes, as well as an isolated dog bedroom for crates, beds, toys, separated feedings, and any other needs your dog may have. I can always keep your pet separate from mine if you’d like. My home is set up to be accommodating for pets, we have 2 living rooms and a dog designated bedroom. The downstairs living room has a door for anyone who may need some time alone, and the dogs bedroom has my crates and extras for feeding times, sleeping, and for when we leave them alone. I like to keep things safe and not open the door for opportunities to flourish, that’s why all feedings are kept separate and done in their crates, and play times are closely monitored with full supervision.

About: I’ve spent years caring for dogs, and it’s something I truly enjoy. From energetic puppies to quiet senior dogs, I love getting to know each one’s unique personality. Whether it’s playtime, snuggles, or simply helping them feel safe and at home, your pup will always be treated like family with me. I’m available most weekdays and weekends, and can start caring for pets as early as 7:00 am, or earlier if needed. Just let me know what time works best for you, and I’ll do my best to accommodate your schedule! Inn my cozy 2-bedroom condo, your dog will have plenty of space to relax, daily walks around my quiet, pet friendly neighborhood, and lots of cuddle time to feel loved and secure. I keep a consistent routine with fresh food and water to help your pup feel right at home

About: I will make your pets safety my number one priority while in my care. My goal is to keep your pet safe while making them feel like family while their own family is away. As a Kindergarten teacher home for the summer, my schedule is open and my days are spent at home. There are plenty of opportunities for walks and cuddles. I have a fenced in backyard. I will commit myself to one family at a time so that your pet can have all of my attention. I will send pictures regularly so that you can see your pet happy and loved.


“Amazing experience of leaving our puppy for almost two weeks! They were very accommodating,very responsive and obviously have a great love for dogs! It was a wonderful place for our 11 month old puppy. She had many playmates and lots of space to run around inside and out in a very dog loving household- Thank you so very much !!!! We will be return customers?”


About: I’ve taken care of animals of all kinds for most of my life. I have experience training puppies and older dogs of several breeds! My house is equipped with plenty of cat items and a fenced backyard for the puppers! There is plenty of space for them to run around or take a much needed quiet break. I currently own 4 cats and 1 dog. All of my four legged companions are extremely friendly with other animals. I am a stay at home mom with a 3 year old during the week and on weekend I work a very minimal part time job but my husband is home. Your pet won’t be home alone hardly if at all! *I ONLY TAKE CRATE TRAINED DOGS* My house is well equipped for multiple types of animals. Though in the rare occasions animals are left alone I ALWAYS keep them seperate from my own pets for everybody’s safety! I have a fenced yard and plenty of upper ground so dogs and cats have places to go to get away when they need a break.

“Erin and Lilly watched my lotti girl (Chihuahua) for a week when we went on vacation. Lotti was a stray that my daughter found at a gas station parking lot that we took in at approx 4 weeks old and needed bottle fed still. We had a vacation planned for over a year just a week before she was brought to us. Erin and Lilly took all my worries away while we were gone. They sent videos and pics the entire week making me feel much better knowing she was in amazing hands. Lotti was a very special puppy that had to have around the clock care. I would recommend them to petsit to anyone I know! Thank you both so much for loving lotti💜”
