7. Autumn K.
“Always very happy with the care our dogs get from Autumn. This time the weather was less than ideal for coming out and servicing a dog. Autumn still provided the care our dog needed. Our dog is large and can be rambunctious, but not a problem for Autumn to handle. Thanks again! 😊”
8. Brittany & Branson S.
“This is my second dog that Brittany and Branson have cared for. This time it is a very energetic Cavapoo named Wyatt. Brittany is always prompt, notified me of any concerns and leaves a full update of her visit and a few pictures. Wyatt is always in a great mood when I come home and obviously was well cared for and had some fun too!!! Couldn't be happier with his care!!”
9. Madeleine M.
“Madeleine LOVES dogs! She has grown up with dogs of all sizes and breeds throughout her life and is very comfortable around them. Additionally, she is a highly empathetic, smart, responsible, and caring person, as shown by her currently attending medical school to become a doctor. She loves being outdoors and engaging in physical activity, of which she would love to include a dog! For example, she is an adventurous person who seeks out hiking at local state parks. She has also watched dogs for friends and family in the past, demonstrating her ability to care for pets competently and with love. Together, these traits, passions, and hobbies make her a great pet caregiver.”
10. Celosia M.
“Celosia is a wonderful person. She's personally helped me get through rough times in my life so she is very reliable and loyal. She used to help care for a special needs dog named Rome when she lived in St. Charles and was really good with him. Taking him for walks, giving him attention, training him, giving him treats. Rome learned what "kennel up" means from Celosia and would willingly go into a kennel when she would say "kennel up." She currently has a dog with her friend Jon named Dingo that is also special needs that they care for together. He has anxiety issues and she & Jon have taken great care of him. They bring him to dog parks, they brought him a thunder jacket, they've cuddled with him during times he's been super scared. If you are looking for a reaponsible and loving dog caregiver with experience caring for all types of dogs including special needs Celosia is your gal.”
11. Tanya C.
“Tanya has been watching our little girl Lady since she was a puppy. Over the past 10 years Tanya has taken care of Lady when we have gone out of town, treating our dog like her own. In addition, Tanya has also come to our house to spend time and let Lady out to play when our schedules kept us away all day. We highly recommend Tanya and trust her with our Lady and home.”

14. Melanie B.
“Melanie is incredible with dogs of any size. She’s incredibly kind yet caring and considerate of owner requests and individual dogs' needs. I haven’t met a dog that didn’t love her. Melanie's the only one I trust to watch over my pups in a time of need. Highly recommend!”
15. Emily & Kalene M.
“Emily had taken wonderful care of my dog on numerous occasions! Emily loves my dog as her own and is one of the only people I trust with my dog. Anyone would be lucky to have your pet spend time with Emily!”
16. Rodessa Meryll Mae C.
“My pup, Fred, is like my child, so I am very picky with who I choose to watch over and care for him while I’m away. Meryll was wonderful with not only easing my worries about leaving but also giving Fred the love and attention he needs. I have quite a few very specific instructions for Fred’s care and she followed them all perfectly. She sent me updates on Fred while I was gone and I could tell they were having a great time together. Fred is typically very bashful around strangers but he warmed right up to Meryll! I think he could sense that he would be safe and happy in her care. I will always choose Meryll as Fred’s babysitter.”
17. Stephanie P.
“Hi Stephanie p is a good dog sitter. She has helped me with my dog's. She knows when they need to go outside be fed and etc. She helped me help my dog before to give birth. She's a wonderful person when it comes to dog sitter. I can't complain about her.”
