Summer did an amazing job. This was our first experience with in-home care and it was really reassuring to know that Bama was getting good care. She noticed if there were any issues, worked with me when things came up, and, most importantly gave her love and attention when we weren't there. Her vet tech training gave me peace of mind since Bama is an older dog. She sent pics and videos, which I really appreciated. I would definitely use Summer again if the need arose. Thanks, Summer!

Sarah is wonderful! She asked questions & was attentive to my detailed communication. She is conscientious. She was sensitive to my feelings about being away from Sargent & sent pictures & communicated throughout the weekend. This eased my separation anxiety, allowing me to enjoy my time away. She was active with Sargent, which is what he needs. When we got home from our weekend, he slept most of the evening. A tired dog is a happy dog. Sarah has a genuine love of animals & it shows in her care of them.

Alexia is the absolute best! She’s taken care of our crew before but this time it was a 2 week stay. We have 2 cats, 3 dogs, finches and parakeets. She loves them all and immerses herself into their lives making them feel safe and secure. She totally enjoys outdoor play time and provides daily pictures and/or video updates. Alexia is reliable and trustworthy. She is knowledgeable and has a genuine passion for animals. She is comfortable and confident around different types of pets, understanding their individual needs and behaviors. She does an excellent job with home care too- taking care of plants, mail, keeping outdoor bird feeders full etc. We highly recommend Alexia- you’ll be at complete peace while your babies are in her care and they will be happy and stress free when you return!

About: I worked at a doggy daycare for 2 years, playing with them and learning all different kinds of body language! I also dog sit for my friends dogs all the time! I love to work with dogs and build that special bond, any size and age!! I currently have class from 8:25am - 9:45am and 8:25am - 12:00pm every other day! I play softball so I do have practice at 5:00pm everyday besides weekends but it won’t be for much longer! I am available any time between those times and will always make sure to find a way to care for your animals!! I have an unfenced yard but will make sure potty breaks and outside play are carefully watched over. I have one very friendly dog and one cat that doesn’t really care for any animals attention!

About: I love dogs and I love spending time outdoors with them. I have two dogs of my own that are my whole entire world! I have dog sat for friends and family plenty of times, and I also have a part-time job at a daycare/boarding place. I would love to meet your pets and be able to take care of them when you are out of town. Thank you in advance for the opportunity! I work during the week 8am-5pm with an hour lunch break that I come home for to take my dogs outside. I also have a part-time job at a dog boarding/daycare on the weekends, those shifts are 6:45-10am and 2:15-5pm.

Holly was fantastic to work with, and she took such great care of our fur kids. One of our dogs even had a bad ear infection going on, and Holly had no issue giving both pills and ear drops. She sent pictures and updates regularly, and was always prompt when responding to any messages. We will definitely be booking with her again in the future!

Kinsey did a fantastic job taking care of our 3 dogs in our home for the week were out of town. Dogs were a little weary at first having never been sat with by a stranger. Dogs took to her just fine with no issues. The house was taken care of and Kinsey cleaned up all before we were returned home. We would recommend Kinsey anytime!

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life! My mom and I used to foster cats and dogs of all sizes, so I’ve had experience caring for all kinds of personalities. I’m a college student with a flexible schedule, and I love spending my free time outdoors. Taking your dog for walks and giving them some extra love and attention would be a joy for me! I’m a college student with a flexible schedule, so I’m available most weekdays and weekends for walks, drop ins, pet sitting ECT... I can easily adjust my availability to fit your pet’s routine and make sure they get plenty of care and attention throughout the day. I care for every pet like they’re part of my own. When I’m in your home, I make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable by following their normal routines and giving them plenty of attention. I will always make to keep walks fun but safe. My goal is to build trust with both you and your pet so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands.

About: I am great with dogs. I absolutely love them and will keep them occupied and above all, happy. Trips to the off leash dog park happen often and snuggles are always appreciated. I love to run, play fetch, give belly rubs and teach new tricks. I will make sure each of your pups gets real one on one time and maybe learn a new trick to impress mom/dad!! I hope you contact me to take care of precious pups while you have to be away from them. I’m very excited to meet them! I currently work part time so I will have plenty of time for your pups! My schedule at work changes weekly so scheduling may be a couple hours off. A weeks notice is best to ensure prompt service. I have a very easy going attitude. I am calm and alert. Your pets 100% care is of the utmost importance to me. Potty breaks happen immediately upon arrival and love, play, and attention is never held back. I hope to become a great friend to your pet and they will be eager to see me again!

About: I can walk, feed, bathe, and play with dogs. I have taught my dogs how to sit. I love animals and taking care of them. I will give them the best care possible! I’m currently working part-time so my hours are very open. I’m a student here at USD staying over the summer. My dogs live in Arkansas with my parents and I miss them a lot. A few minutes with your animals will bring me happiness! I live in an apartment with no other animals but my lease doesn’t allow animals. I can easily go to your house and pet sit/walk. I have a leash and treats as well!

About: Hi! My name is Tara, and I’m a dependable, caring sitter with experience caring for both dogs and cats. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. I’m happy to help with feeding, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and overnight stays. I personally have two wonderful cats that I spend more than half my day with. Every morning I make sure they have food and water and while I may not have an extensive food routine for them they do get their occasional wet meal. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine so they feel safe and comfortable. I carefully follow all instructions provided for feeding, walks, medications, and daily habits. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure at all times and keep the home clean and organized while I’m there.
