“Paula was so wonderful and accommodating with my crazy schedule! The pups got along great and I know my guy had the best time and was well-cared for.”


2. Amy R.


“We came on vacation here and my dog, Shadow, was miserable because he has separation anxiety issues, so I contacted Amy to see if she could keep him for me during the day so he wouldn’t be alone. It was an amazing experience! She was so good with him and he actually loved going after the first day. Amy was a lifesaver for me, I could relax on my vacation and know Shadow was in good hands. Will definitely be using her again next time we come to town. Thank you so much!”


3. James J.


“James and his wife were wonderful. We thoroughly enjoyed the photos and updates they sent us of our dogs. They truly care about animals and treated our girls like their own. I highly recommend their service and will use them again if we ever come back to this part of the country.”


4. Ann & Jaren S.

“We were initially apprehensive about leaving our anxious pup at doggie daycare, but upon meeting Jaren, our worries melted away. Their fenced-in, lush green yard, complete with a variety of dog toys, immediately reassured us. We were warmly greeted by their adorable mini Aussie Shepherd, Bowie, who quickly became fast friends with our dog, Dale. Meeting Ann and their other two friendly doggies only reinforced the welcoming atmosphere. The easygoing nature of the household made drop-offs and pick-ups effortless. Dale returned home pleasantly tired from a day of play, without feeling overwhelmed.”


5. Ann W.


“Maggie was very excited to go to Ann’s house. We had a meet and greet the day before. Ann was very prompt getting back to me after my request and communicated very well. She kept us updated with photos and texts. We will definitely use her services again!”


6. Stacey V.
“We had Stacey come to our house to take care of our cats while we were out of town for a week, also feed the hamster too. She was amazing with sending us photos everyday of them and took very good care of them and our home. I would recommend her for a very responsible and dependable pet sitter.”

11. Megan C.
“Megan is wonderful! She is the sweetest person and is awesome with my pets. She spends the time and effort on loving both my pets as if they were her own.

“Zeus and Charlie LOVED THEIR LITTLE FAMILY! I mean LOVED them, and so did we! There is more than just Kary! There’s her goofy, outgoing, kind spirited animals. Her family the surrounds the property! They welcome everyone with open arms, and are welcoming to all new comers, we made new friends ourselves, and had great conversations 😂😁This was my first time having a dog sitter, and I would so book with Kary 1000% again. Thank you for allowing the boys to come and hang out for the day, it was well deserved and needed. They slept the whole way home and all night PEACEFULLY! 🙏❤️ If you are traveling from out of town like we were, and need someone to look after your babies? KARY! Is the way to go! That property is HUGE! I mean HUGE! Your dogs will enjoy themselves and forget the separation anxiety they have being away from you! Trust this woman! She’s the best.”

I give Elizabeth the highest possible recommendation and would let her watch Rex anytime!”


15. Morgan K.

About: I’ve worked in the veterinary field for 15+ years. I’ve done everything from training puppies, bottle feeding kittens, to caring for senior babies. Ever since I was a little girl, animals have been a huge part of my life. I’m currently a stay at home animal Mom. My availability is open. However, I will be going back to work mid February 2025. I’ll have 3 days off during the week. My house is in the woods sitting on 6 acres and it is fenced in. I do have my own, very friendly fur babies. I also have a livestock guardian dog who, when he’s not trying to be a 120 pound lap dog, he guards ducks, chickens, and 2 very spoiled goats named Dolly and Jolene. Your babies would definitely have lots of supervised play time and exercise. If I care for a pet in your home, I am very respectful of your home and property.
