1. Edward B.


“We took our first out of state trip without our dogs over the holidays. Edward came by before we left to meet the dogs and go through specifics. We also received a couple photos while we were gone that put our minds at ease. They appeared to be very well taken care of when we arrived home. I would definitely recommend Edward and hope to have him watch our dogs again in the future.”


2. Janelle C.

“Janelle was absolutely wonderful with our dogs. We have never left them before because we have been too nervous, but she always kept us updated with pictures and texts about our babies! We will definitely be using her in the future, and we are so excited to know we can have a life outside of our puppies again.”

6. Nicole B.

“Nicole is amazing! My pup Toko is usually never alone and I was apprehensive about leaving him, but Nicole quickly eased my worries and took such great care of him! She is clearly great with animals and Toko loved her right away, and she sent regular updates throughout my trip, making me feel completely comfortable being away. She also took great care of my house. I will definitely ask her to stay with Toko next time I have to go out of town. Couldn’t recommend her more!”

12. Paige D.
About: Since the age of seven, I have nurtured a passion for caring for animals, growing up in an environment surrounded by livestock and participating in animal shows. Additionally, I have gained experience as a veterinary technician assistant at an animal hospital. Incorporating pet care into my daily routine involves feeding, walking, and playing with clients pets. Weekly, I able to give quality time to ensure their well-being and happiness. Caring for pets in my home and clients' homes typically includes providing adequate food and fresh water, ensuring regular exercise through walks and playtime, maintaining cleanliness by tidying living areas, administering medications if needed, and offering companionship and attention to meet their emotional needs. For clients, I also tailor care to their specific instructions and routines, ensuring a consistent environment for the pets while their owners are away.

“Kylie has taken incredible care of my dog for over a year now. She is very attentive to all of his special needs and he loves to see her when she comes over for his walks. I would highly recommend her for someone who has a dog that needs extra care as she really goes the extra mile for my beloved pet. She will stay at your house if you are out of town as well and is very trustworthy and dependable. I would not leave my dog with anyone else!”

17. Madi L.

“Madi was fabulous and took such great care of our two dogs. The dogs warmed up to her so quickly and that put us at ease to enjoy our time away. She even went above and beyond and had the home as clean as it was when we left. She sent pics and updates and responded quickly. We hope to have her help again soon!”


18. Jordan J.

“I highly recommend Jordan. She sat my dog at my house which was less stressful for Kody. Jordan helped him stary calm during thunderstorms. She also took Kody for rides in her car and walks in new areas. Kody was comfortable with Jordan as his sitter.”

“Bailey is amazing! She truly went above & beyond for our animals & took care of them just as we do. Bailey communicated the whole time & sent pictures of our animals throughout the time she had with them, which I appreciated so much. She spent so much time at home, with our dogs & cat ❤️ She even left a paper with a log she made of all the care she provided to our animals while we were gone! I couldn’t recommend her enough.
