We do our best to go beyond basic pet sitting and provide a super loving and stress-free environment for your fur babies! We want to make sure your pets feel at home, even when you're away! I’ve incorporated daily and weekly pet care into my routine by setting aside specific times for feeding, grooming, play, and walks. It’s become a natural part of my schedule, and I enjoy the structure it brings to my day. Taking care of my pets is rewarding, and it helps me stay mindful of balancing responsibilities with quality time. I will come back to this. I wrote this out and need to find it and come back and type it here and will do that shortly.

“Oriana was an awesome house setter. She took very good care of our two dogs. They went on many walks and had a lot of playtime. Oriana sent several pictures which was so nice. I have full confidence in her love and compassion for animals, and I will obsoletely be one of her many repeat customers.”

“Amber was phenomenal with my dog, Arya, while I was out of the country!! She house sat for me and sent me daily updates and photos so I never had to worry how things were. I came home to a very happy pup! I can’t recommend her enough and will be using her again and again!”

“Mia took care of my 2 senior dogs including one with health problems and medication. She responded to texts quickly and sent lots of pictures. Mia sent pictures of her and my skiddish dog who usually takes a long time to trust snuggling, which says a lot! She left my home as clean as I left it.”

“Landon was absolutely wonderful with my girls! He took great care of them, and spent a lot of time interacting with and loving up on them. Landon checked in often with pictures and communication. He left the house neat and tidy. I would highly recommend him to take great care of your pets and your home while you are away.”

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life. I have experience with small dogs all the way to Bernese mountain dogs. Currently I have a mixed breed named Arlo that is full of energy. We love to go on walks and adventure everyday. Your dog will not be bored and will be loved like they are my own. Currently working full time with the ability to work from home if needed. I only live 3 blocks from where I work so coming home is no issue. I am a early riser so my dog gets plenty of exercise in the mornings to wear him out while we are gone. I would be able to watch your animal any day of the week. I have a nice size backyard that isn’t fenced in (my dog doesn’t need) but have a chain in case your animal needs it. I have a very nice crate if they prefer to lay or sleep in one. I am mostly outside in the mornings and at night so your pup will always be moving or can lay around and relax if that’s what they prefer.

“Will definitely be using him in the future. Pups were well loved and cared for. Daily updates and pictures sent. Thank you for loving our pups.”

Tawnya B.

“Keegan was beyond amazing. My dog Oakley gets very anxious when I leave her but I could tell she was in great hands whenever I got updates from Keegan. She really amazing and you can tell truly cares about the pets she watches. Will definitely be booking her again!”

Michelle S.

“Angie was an amazing dog sitter for us!! She watched our dog, Rosie, and my brother in law’s dog, Kenobi, in our home when we were on vacation for 4 days. Angie came to our house prior to the sit for a proper meet and greet with the pups. It was clear how experienced she is around pets and the pups loved her immediately. Our dog Rosie is on a special diet which was no issue when we were away. Angie kept great communication and gave us daily updates with pictures of the dogs. I would highly recommend Angie!!”

About: Hi! I'm Breanna, an experienced pet lover and proud dog mom to two amazing German Shepherds who are truly my fur children. I know how important it is to have someone you trust to care for your pets, whether they have paws or whiskers, and I’m here to provide just that—loving, reliable, and personalized care. Although I work full-time, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate as much time as needed to each pet, based on your family’s preferences. I have hands-on experience with dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, and ages—from playful kittens and puppies to senior pets needing a softer touch. I treat every animal as if they were my own, with the care, patience, and love they deserve. Your pet’s happiness, safety, and comfort will always be my top priority. I can’t wait to meet your four-legged family member—whether they purr, bark, or do both! 🐶🐱❤️ As a fur mama pet care is 24/7 at my house. There is always mud to clean up, coats to brush, and toys to shred! I will care for your pet as if they were my own and to the best ability as I can to ensure they are living the life you allow them to!

About: I love both dogs and cats like their my own. I have 20+ years experience with caring for pets. I have experience with walking, bathing, brushing, and playing with cats and dogs. I have a day time job Monday-Friday 8-4:30pm. I would be able to take the dogs out before work, and when I get home. My husband works from home 2-3 days a week and would be available to be home to take care of your fur baby during every Thursday and Friday. On the weekends, I am able to take dogs out at at least every 2-4 hours. Thursdays/Fridays, my husband will be helping me with potty breaks while I am at my day job. I do not have a fenced in area, but will take your fur-baby out as often as needed between my husband and I both. We will use a leash to keep your pet safe!

“Charley is great with our dogs!”

About: I have always been a dog lover since I was young, I have had dogs basically my whole life and now I will be starting vet school in the fall! I currently am giving myself a break this summer before I start Vet School this August so doing pet care, walks, sitting will fit perfectly into my routine! I take my dog and my sisters dog for a 4 mile walk everyday. Growing up I had all the responsibilities of caring for a dog, feeding, walking, cleaning, etc. I have worked at two dog daycare boarding facilities for years (Heartland and Cedar Run)!

About: I have cared for pets of friends and family since high school. I walk, feed, bathe and snuggle with all the pets I care for. I work full time during the day, during the week days, but often have weekends and evenings free. Can do potty breaks near my home. At my home I have an underground fence. When at others homes I will care for them like their owners would, with lots of love.

“Rover made this transaction incredibly smooth. Chrissy is exactly the kind of person you want watching your dogs. She texted us photos twice a day and let us know what was going on. We came home to happy dogs and a clean home. Thank you. *****”

About: My family and myself absolutely love animals! We have dogs and cats ourselves and have had for many years. Most of our animals that we have or have had, we've adopted from shelters or have turned up on our doorstep as strays so naturally, we took them in! We adore animals so much that we should actually live on a farm so we can have more! We call our 13 year old daughter "the animal whisperer", she loves and understands what every animal wants or needs and they love and trust her in return. She knows every breed of dog and everything about them! She's going to be a veterinarian someday, I can already see it now! Animals are part of our family, they have free roam of our house, can snuggle with us on the furniture or in our bed and we play outside with them in our big backyard. We live in a small town so it's perfect for playing outside or taking a walk. Our pets love other animals to play with also! However you take care of your pet, you can count on us to do the same! Just let us know what your pet loves and needs and we'll provide them with that! I'm very flexible and can work around most schedules. Available mornings, afternoons, evenings and nights for drop in visits to your home and walks and available anytime for overnight stays at your home. When in your home, you just let me know what your pet's normal routine is, their likes/dislikes, fave toys/treats and I'll make your pet feel pampered, comfortable and loved!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 12, and have grown up around them. I have 3 labs & 1 mixed small pup of my own. I love keeping pups active, and soaking up all the snuggles. I’m currently an online graduate student and nannying on the side. I am open to any time that you may need me for walking or house/dog sitting. I will do my best to make your pet feel as though you never left by sticking close to their typical routine, and making them feel loved and secure.
