“Emily was a godsend during our vacation in Ammon, ID. She was extremely flexible to our changing schedule, adapted to our dog’s needs depending upon timing and weather, and is an excellent communicator. She and her business partner are truly top notch and gave us peace of mind that our pup was in great hands. Thank you, Emily! I wish you lived near me and I would hire you all the time!”


“Lisa took such great care of our two kitties, she treated them like her own! She was very responsive and communicative, and addressed every issue she encountered with no complain. We would definitely book her again!”


About: I have had dogs my whole life. I’ve have cared for them through all stages. I am experienced with administering medications and adhering to veterinarian instructions. I am the person my friends and family call when they need help with their pets. I am confident I can earn your trust, as well as your dog’s. I am currently self-employed and looking to supplement my income by providing exceptional home and pet care in my community. I would like to lend you the flexibility to leave home with complete confidence that your critters are in good hands. My schedule is open. I will gladly adhere to your schedules and house rules. No dogs on the couch? Not when I’m there either. Do you have a feeding routine? We will stick to it. Trustworthiness, consistency, and reliability are my top three priorities.

“Megan kept open communication about every aspect of our puppies. The meet and greet went so well, we knew we’d feel comfortable leaving our babies with her! I can’t wait to book with her again.”


“Jessica was great!! My cat Charlie had oral surgery the day before I had to go out of town, and she was totally willing to give her her antibiotics, even though Charlie was a little grumpy about it. Absolutely wonderful sitter!!!”

About: I grew up with horses, cats and dogs and that brought on my love of animals. I worked in a small animal vet clinic for 12 years as a tech until I had my kids and became a SAHM 4 years ago so I have a lot of experience caring for animals. The benefit of having worked as a tech for so long is I’m very well trained in dog behavior, medical treatment, and giving pets extra loves when they’re feeling nervous. We have our own doodle who is a spayed female and she loves other dogs, even the grouchy ones. I have two kids, a 4 1/2 year old and a 7 1/2 year old who both were taught from a young age how to properly treat animals so they’re both very respectful of space and gentle. I am currently a stay at home mom so I am at the house most of the day, aside from running kids to activities, to take care of your pet. The living space in our home is one floor so there aren’t stairs for senior pets to have to climb. We also have a fenced backyard for them to play and potty. The fence along the back is only 4ft high so if you have an escape artist, our home isn’t a good fit.

About: I love animals and have a 4 year old German shepherd. I will treat your dog as my own and so you don’t have to worry about your fur baby while away. I’m very responsible and would so love the opportunity. I work at home and set my own schedule, so I can fit caring for an animal anytime throughout the day. I’d love to take care of your doggo. I can come to your home and check on your baby, and bring them to my house if needed. If I were to bring them to my house they must be good with kids, I have a baby.

About: I’ve been watching, walking, and pet sitting for family and friends for the past ten years. I have also cared for my own dogs from puppy to senior years. I have experience with very high energy as well as low energy dogs. I work during the week but am available all weekend for pet sitting. I go on lots of walks and am very attentive to dogs in my care. I have a fenced in yard with a doggie door to the back yard. My dog is medium sized and never met a creature or human he didn’t love. He is neutered and crate trained as well. I am comfortable separating dogs if needed for down time and feeding. I am also comfortable with the extra care and attention required for young puppies and senior dogs.

About: I’ve taken care of all sorts of pets since I was age 7. Family and friends have relied on me to take care of their pets. I’m available 7 days a week. I can watch them at your house or mine depending on your schedule. They will have lots of play time during the day. I have a huge fenced yard, so there will be lots of room for running around and playing.I never leave them unattended in the yard. Plus I have two dogs that are pet friendly that would love the company. If you want help with extra training, please let me know.


About: Hey, I'm Taylor! I spend all of my free time with my best friend, Sammy, a border collie lab mix. We love camping, hiking, canoeing, and exploring new trails. We are always looking for new pals to adventure with us. We live just outside of town on a small, still being established farm. We have a very large unfenced yard, a dog run, and lots of toys to play with. When walking or visiting your dog, we would go for walks, hikes, swims, whatever you are comfortable with! My partner and I have worked out our ideal work schedules so that one of us is always at home with the pups, supervising and adventuring. Let me know if you have any questions or how we can be of service to you. We are looking forward to meeting you and your four legged friend!

About: I'm an animal person, always have been, strays have always found there way to me, in fact I have only purchased a puppy once, they have all been strays or adopted or rescued, I am not bonded but do have a twic card that allows me access to the port of Houston with an FBI background check. I also just received my usda certification for animal transport and waiting on my USDOT number. I will take great care of your pets and great care of your home, also if you like I will practice my pet photography on your fur baby and text you the pictures. I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of time for exercising and playing with the fur babies, it’s a healthy win win for both of us. I care for all pets the same way I care for my own, just like they are part of my family. They will get spoiled.

About: I've had dogs since I was a baby, and I've gotten very good at understanding and caring for them. I'm open to caring for any and all animals, but dogs and cats are what I do best. I also am working on a groomers certification, and will be going to veterinary school. I've been training my parents pups for some time now, and I do basic grooming services such as baths, trims, and nail clippings. I volunteered at my local animal shelter for a while, and did basic grooming, walking, and doggy dates for them during that time. I'm currently working part time but I'll be taking the summer off to fully enjoy it, and hopefully enjoy it with some awesome pets. I'll be starting veterinary school later this year, so we don't have to worry about that just yet. I always like to know where their food, medications, and other essentials are. I'll always ask for feeding and medication schedules, and I'll set a schedule for walks and potty breaks. I can do baths and basic grooming as well.

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life! I care for them like my own! Dogs have been my support for my whole life! I love them! I find opportunities to be around dogs to care and love them every chance I get! They bring me so much joy to care and love them! I make sure they have the specific needs they need and make sure the environment is safe and comfortable for the animals just like I would want!

About: Have always had pets and enjoy them being around to snuggle and play with. We do have kids ages 6-12 and one senior dog. Our kids have always been around pets and have learned limits and how to properly interact with animals. Any pets staying in our home need to get along with dogs and kids. Work full time from home but go in occasionally. Usually up by 6am and in bed by 9pm. Don't mind getting up once in the night for potty time. I prefer not to crate dogs at my house unless they are destructive. We can do walks for exercise once or twice a day. We don't have a fence so dogs go on a 15 foot string to go out to go potty and come back in a few minutes later.
