“Hope was fabulous! Took care of Dolly & Chesney perfectly. Always sent pics &/or video to keep us in the loop. Couldn’t ask for a better situation. Especially when our holiday plans changed and we needed someone fast. She was very reactive. Thank you Hope!”


“Tessa is a gem. Loki loved her during the “meet and greet”, as she was playing with him and petting him. She followed our instructions and took excellent care of him. We look forward to the next time she can watch him!”


“Would give 10 stars if possible. Had a great experience with Taylor and her boyfriend. Both went above and beyond. Will definitely be booking you guys again. Thank you for everything!”


“Holli accommodated a late request to let my puppy out in the morning and afternoon as well as spend an hour at each visit with her. Holli took great care of my puppy! She messaged me updates and pictures.”


“Jacqui did great with our cat, Flower. We were gone for a week and Flower seemed very at ease when we came home. Jacqui went above & beyond making sure our porch light was on/off when necessary & bringing in our mail. She was on time for every visit & sent photos/updates through out the week. She also responded to texts very fast which was relieving because our service was choppy. We will definitely be requesting her services again in the future!”


About: Most familiar with cat care all the way from little kittens to senior cats. I do dog walks and dropin visits on the Wag app and have a perfect 5 star rating for every job I have done and am looking to expand my clientele here. I absolutely love being able to care for pets and see how happy they are when we go for walks or play fetch. I also dogsit my family's golden doodle who is learning tricks and has anxiety around people. I have a part time job and do contract work on my own schedule so I can fit pet care around my current schedule easily. I intend your home space to be the same as you left it when you return from your trip with a happy pet waiting for you.

“Kylie was wonderful with our dogs! They loved her and are happy to see her! I was nervous about leaving them for a week, especially with my older dog being on a demanding medicine, but as soon as I met her I was instantly reassured and far more comfortable! I cannot recommend her enough! We get pictures and updates as we ask for them and as an emotionally attached Fur Mom, that’s exactly what I need when I’m away from my babies. THANK YOU, KYLIE! ♥️”


About: I've had dogs of all sizes my whole life. From a Yorkie to a 180 pound Saint Bernard! I have taken some basic dog handling care classes and even work in the local shelter with the cats. I'm currently working full time, so I would show up in the morning to check on the animal, during my lunch break if I can, and once I'm off work I would show up as well. Every visit with the animal, I check their eyes, nose, and ears to make sure they aren't getting sick and I also take the morning to care for their food and water needs.

About: I've had at least one pet my whole life. I grew up with an older dog that gave me a safe and comforting feeling. I am well experienced with different personalities and ages. I make sure my pets have been taken care of and also played with, that they feel loved and safe as my first dog had made me feel. I wake up fairly early at 6am to 7am. I make sure my animals are let out and fed soon after. I make sure throughout the day they have been given plenty of time to exercise and play before bedtime. The first thing I would do when first meeting a new friend is to not rush into it. I'd get to know them and their routine especially cats because they don't like their routine changed. They would have all their needs met even if it was specific on time and amounts. I would give additional attention and care for your pet because they experience a lot of stress while their owner is away.

“Couldn’t be happier! She took such good care of my boys! I think they really would not have minded me being gone longer. Will definitely be asking her to sit for them again. She was great! Thank you so much!”


About: I've been caring for people's furbabies for many years in my home and staying at the clients homes. I'm very patient and flexible in caring for these pups (and cats!). Let me know what you need, and I will figure out how to meet that need! I live in Marion and am more than willing to travel the region. Again, I am flexible and willing to negotiate! Let me help you relax. Don't worry while you are away, I will help your furbabies chill and have a vacation of their own. I am willing to tidy up your house while you are away too! Just let me know what you need and I'd be happy to help! I work a flexible schedule so I can rotate my work needs around your pet's needs, no worries, I will get what is needed done! You can trust me to be gentle with your pet and give them the care and safety they need. If they need walks, play time, whatever, I can provide! I am currently able to have a flexible schedule and have minimal life responsibilities. Therefore I have quite an open schedule and am willing to accommodate almost anything! Again, I am flexible and willing to think outside the box to meet the needs of your family. I communicate frequently with the client to best understand the needs of the furbabies. I will make sure the animals (and humans) have the opportunity to build a relationship to establish trust and confidence in my ability to provide high quality of care.

“Kristan was wonderful with our dog. She is a large breed dog and was able to handle her with ease. She did everything I asked her too plus more. My dog thoroughly enjoyed her visits. I would get her again.”
