“Megan had a great time at Jessica’s. It was Megan’s first daycare experience and she didn’t even hesitate going in. Megan came home exhausted, which made for a nice relaxing evening. We will definitely be booking with Jessica again.”
2. Scott S.
“We feel so fortunate to have found Scott! Our golden retriever has the absolute best time at his house; she comes home tired and happy. And he sends the best pictures showing us what she’s up to throughout the day … I wish my kids’ daycare was this thorough!”
3. Mackenzie W.
“My dog had a great first daycare experience with Mackenzie and Anthony. He’s had issues with anxiety with sitters in the past, and did very well with them and their 2 dogs. I highly recommend.”
4. Alexandra H.
“Ali is THE only pet sitter we ever use. Two cats AND two large dogs to stress about while we're out of town is a lot but there are ZERO worries when I have Ali taking care of them. She's great about communicating if she has any questions. She always pays close attention to the instructions we leave and doesn't mind going "out of her way" to hang out for some cat cuddles and a dog pile! Highly recommend her for any stressed pet parents planning a get-away!”
5. Samantha K.
“Samantha is amazing! So are her pets! We booked last minute and she was so willing to work with us! She is very responsive, will get back to you quickly. She sends lots of videos and pictures throughout your pets day! Your pet will get plenty of exercise if you book with Samantha! We have already booked another week with her! My ONLY negative with her would be Ollie is definitely going to miss his friends! ☺️”

9. Shaelea R.
“She cares about animals deeply and goes above and beyond for any animal/s in her possession. No matter if they are hers or someone else's. She is one person i would personally trust to leave my pet with and not have to worry about them. You couldn't pick a better person to babysit or walk your dog or any animal at that.”

About: I have raised dogs, cats, bunnies, horses, and chickens my entire life. I currently have a Pug and a Boston Terrier, both puppies. I work from home and can provide day care, over nights, walks, pop-ins, etc. I am right down the street from Gateway so if you need a place to drop your animal off on your way to work downtown, I make a convenient drop off location. Very flexible with times. Air conditioning inside, large fully fenced backyard, and walks daily. 24/7 availability for pet care so long as we communicate in advance. I work from home and can be available based on your needs. I am available for drop off and pick up any time. There are a few times throughout the day where I will be driving my kids to and from events. We can communicate and work around those times. I also have a keypad. Animals are watched closely in the home and kept inside the fence in the backyard under supervision. When on walks animals are always on leash and are one on one with me. Separate food and water bowls are used. My yard is cleared of excrement daily. All animals must be up to date with shots and worming and flea/tick prevention.

12. Courtney C.
“Courtney is great with animals. She has taken to my pup Lira who is a long haired dachshund and Lira absolutely loves cuddling with Courtney. I know that Lira is in good hands when I leave Lira with her and that's the best feeling you can have as a dog owner (:”

About: Family has relied on me for all pet needs. I’ve helped with sitting, potty breaks, feeding and walking. Or even just to keep their fur babies company.

I have a large grassed area right outside my patio & also a walking trail next to my complex we use often :) I have 3 children that love animals and would provide great companionship.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 12. Friends and family have relied on me for pet sitting whenever they are out of town. I currently work full-time Hybrid. I work from home Mondays and Fridays. During this time I can provide care specific to your pet and their needs. I can provide potty breaks every 0-2 hours at least. I have a giant fully fenced back yard and 2 friendly dogs. One dog prefers more to watch the other dogs play while the other dog loves to be in all the action!
20. Andrew & Jackson G.
“Andrew is our go-to to watch our dog, Sully, when we’re out of town. He loves dogs and treats our Sully like he’s his own!

Andrew has always taken great care of Sully and I would highly recommend Andrew to anyone needing a dog sitter! He’s the absolute best!”
