“She was wonderful. She kept our girls for a week on a last minute request. I’m not the most easy going when it comes to my dogs, but they were in great hands. Will definitely use her again if she will have us.”

“We can’t say enough good things about Sidney. It was our first time leaving our baby and she made us feel comfortable such that it the best experience it could have been. She followed our care instructions, was very responsible, provided updates and lots of pictures (which we liked), and took amazing care of both our house and our Mochi. We would definitely ask her back to care for our little one again and highly recommend her!”

“Alexandria was absolutely amazing with Georgie! She followed all instructions perfectly, took Georgie for a nice walk, and kept him great company. She also sent me updates, which gave me real peace of mind. I would definitely recommend Alexandria to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional sitter. I’ll absolutely be reaching out to her again in the future!”

About: I have owned/taken care of pets for as long as I can remember! From our family pets growing up to my own dog now, I have always been responsible for the dogs well-being! I currently work from home full-time and I am available throughout the day for walks, check-ins, etc. at any time! My daily schedule is very relaxed leaving me plenty of time for quality pet time! Whether in my home or a client’s home, I am always overly cautious to make sure that the pet is safe and has what they need to be happy and healthy! Having an extremely curious dog myself, I am always hyper-aware of items around that might be dangerous or harmful and will keep these things away from pets!
About: I have taken care of animals (both large and small) since I was younger. Friends, family and others have relied on me to take care of their fur babies. I have also worked at veterinary clinics in the past so I have experience handling dogs properly. I have a flexible schedule. I can walk/feed, home sit most days of the week. I am available most weekdays. Some weekends I might not be available but I will let you know if it would be when I would not be available. I can drop in and out and take care of your dog. I don’t stay overnight at your home but I will come to your house and take care of them.
“Mary Ashley did a great job looking after my 5 dogs for a week while I was out of town. I’m pretty sure they thought she was their new mama. I wouldn’t hesitate to have her look after them again. She is responsible, patient and caring. The dogs loved her and everyone was relaxed, happy and well taken care of. All in all a fantastic pet/house sitter.”

“April is absolutely amazing! I highly recommend her! My babies adore her, and she is so communicative while we’re away. Can’t speak highly enough about April and her exceptional level of care for our pups!”


About: I have experience with small dogs and some larger dogs! I have had dogs for the last 4 years myself and have been around dogs most of my life. I have experience with pet sitting and love to spend time relaxing and playing. I can't wait to meet your pups! I currently work Monday - Thursday in the office. I have the ability to watch dogs in the evenings Monday - Thursday and then can have dogs at home or at your home Friday - Sunday! I can watch dogs during the week, but I typically can't come home for potty breaks at lunch. I have a quiet home with two dogs. They love to spend time inside and out sniffing around our yard. I am happy to accommodate walks or just letting your dog in the yard. My dogs get along very well with other dogs and typically give nervous dogs the space they need to warm up!
“Kyra is amazing! I used her for a two week long trip and didn’t have to worry about a thing. She left cat videos on as enrichment for my kitties and made more frozen enrichment treats for my dog. She let all of them sleep with her. I definitely recommend and will be booking again!”

About: I managed a dog shelter for many years and have taken in as many as 35 dogs at a time just to keep them from being put to sleep. That was back when I lived on a farm. These days, I have just one dog and a peaceful home environment. My home is smoke-free with a fenced backyard and a doggie door, so your pet will have a safe place to play. I live in a private, gated neighborhood. If you want your dog crate-trained or kennel-trained, I can help with that—my pup loves doggie company! I offer personalized care and can provide any service you need for your pet. I’ve worked with dogs, cats, pigs, chickens, raccoons, horses, donkeys, cows, parrots, and even bottle-fed deer, possums, and squirrels. You won’t find anyone who loves animals more! Your time is my time! I’m here for you—whether you need care for your pets or farm while you’re away for the day or on vacation. If you prefer your pet to be crated during their stay, I can accommodate that too—just let me know. ⸻ Requested Information About Your Pet Please let me know if your dog has any special needs, behavioral issues, or food aggression. Depending on the length of the stay, I’m happy to help with training as well. I’m a full-time realtor with a flexible schedule, so I’m home most of the time. I may occasionally need to step out to show a house, but your pup will still get plenty of attention and care. I’m available for boarding anytime, including weekdays and weekends! Your pet will be cared for in a safe, smoke-free home with a fenced backyard and a doggie door for easy outdoor access. I have one sweet, friendly dog who enjoys company. I’m home most of the day and follow your instructions closely. Crating is no problem if needed—I want your dog to feel safe and comfortable while you’re away.
“Paula was great keeping our small dog in our home. She sent pictures daily and from her comments I could tell she liked our dog and was having fun with him. She also left the house in great shape. I will definitely use her again!”

About: I’ve always been surrounded by animals and have had pets throughout my life. Currently, I have a 2-year-old golden retriever, and I completely understand the need for assistance with your pet or simply wanting them to have more socialization and exercise! Luckily, I have a pretty flexible hybrid position that allows me to be available when needed! I can be available anytime between 7am-7pm Monday through Friday. I have always been huge on earning an animal’s trust and not pushing them too hard. I train my own pet with positive reinforcement with a clean and calm environment.
About: I have had a dog since I was 15 years old, and I have always been his primary caretaker. I have also watched friends and families pets where I have been responsible for walking, feeding, and bathing them. I have also had experience with pets who take medications. I am in Clinton for the summer, so I am looking for ways to fill time. Pet care seems like a great way to do it! I have pretty much open availability. When caring for your pet, I will follow your requests and provide the care that you see fit for your pet! I love to go above and beyond, so just let me know how I can best serve you and your pet.
