“If I had more stars to give, I would. Just as we thought we hit the jackpot with our Charlie girl, we also hit the jackpot with Sarah. To be able to leave your pet, knowing they will be loved and cared for is the best feeling. Sarah did just that and more! Charlie was loved and played with a lot! Her food, water and litter box were tended to and the area was immaculate. I also appreciated that Sarah reached out with questions. She cares enough to ask the details and that’s important. Sarah is the kind of person you want to watch over your pet. She’s the best - hands-down.”


About: I’ve been caring for dogs of all kinds since I was around 10 years old. Over the years, I’ve helped friends and family by walking, feeding, and bathing their pets, and I absolutely love it! I’m attentive to each dog’s needs and always focused on making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Whether your pup needs playtime, cuddles, or just someone to keep them company, I’m here to help! I currently have a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to care for your pets with attention and love. I’m home most of the day, making it easy to provide consistent care, walks, playtime, and companionship. I have one small, friendly dog who loves having company. My home is a safe, pet-friendly space with plenty of room to play indoors and outside. Whether your pup prefers quiet time or playtime, I always create a calm, welcoming environment tailored to their needs.

“Margaret was great!. I would use her again without hesitation. She cat sat for me for 10-days in August 2024. I appreciated the daily updates. She took great care to protect my cat during the boil water advisory.”


“As a first-time user of DogVacay, I was so nervous about leaving my dogs with someone I'd never met. As soon as my dogs and I walked through the door for our meet & greet, I felt extremely comfortable with our choice. My dogs are my babies and I could tell they would get great care with Chentel and her pups. My dogs had a wonderful stay with Chentel and I could tell from my daily pictures and their exhausted-ness when I picked them up that they had a great time while mom & dad were out of town. I'd definitely recommend Chentel to others and would leave my dogs with her again in a heartbeat.”


“Lauren came in and watched our cats while we were away on a trip! Got great daily pictures of the cats and came home to them all seeming very happy! Will absolutely book Lauren again!”


“Kari was an absolute rockstar Petsitter. Our kitty has diabetes, so he needs his insulin shot daily within a specific time period. Kari was on time every day and sent photos throughout our whole 2 week trip. Not only did she take great care of our cat, but she made she to take the trash out and keep everything straightened so the house didn’t smell like we’d been gone for a while. We will absolutely request her for future trips!”


“Bayleigh was great at taking care of our two cats while we were out of town. We got 4-5 pictures daily via text and an update on how they were doing. Would definitely hire again!”


“Sydney did awesome with my kit-kat! My cat is normally pretty shy but she warmed up to Sydney really quickly. Great updates each day and lots of cute photos! I’ll definitely reach out to Sydney again next time I need a sitter 😊”


“Great care for our cat and sent pictures everyday which was very welcome for us. Would recommend for your pets. It was home visits and everything went well and mail was taken in.”


“Madison took excellent care of my cat during drop in visits while I was away for a week. My cat tends to be finicky but Madison handled everything with top-notch professionalism, and communication was superb. I quickly knew my cat was left in very capable hands. Two thumbs (and paws) up!”


About: Having spent my lifetime on and around (elite genetics) dairy farms, I'm very comfortable and experienced with, and knowledgable of, animal care, comfortability, and psychology.

“Lynn is a darling. She came and met out pets first, which was great. She asked very focused questions about our cats and their needs. She sent me photos everyday of all my babies as well as reported daily. She went above and beyond when one of my boys broke a vase. Lynn is quirky and funny, and imaginative and we loved her for our boys. Will recommend and call upon in the future.”


About: I have had dogs my whole life and have been pet-sitting for friends, family, and neighbors since age 12. I have taken many dog training classes and understand dogs’ needs and body language. I am a therapist so I have a good understanding of behavioral principles and understand how to be patient while building trust. I require a meet and greet before confirming a booking so your dog is familiar with me/my house and we can ensure they get along with my dogs. I work from home full-time, and typically take a break every 3 hours, at which point the dogs are let out into the fenced-in backyard. I can walk dogs in the morning (around 8 or 9) and/or the evening (around 5 or 6). I have a fenced-in yard and two very friendly and easy-going dogs (50lbs and 75lbs). I am able to crate dogs if needed (you provide the crate) or separate dogs in different areas of the house if any dogs need a break from the others. As I view dogs as part of the family, they are allowed on furniture and beds and receive plenty of attention and snuggles.

About: Hi! My name is Madi and I have been caring for pets of various kinds for several years. As a pet owner and animal lover, I understand the importance of finding someone who will love and care for your pet. I will always do my very best to show every animal the respect and adoration it deserves. I currently work in the school setting, so I have availability in the evenings and on weekends until summer, when I will gain much more availability. My two cats are quite spoiled, and I like to joke that they live better than most humans. They get their own room, lots of sunny spots near windows, and as many cuddles as they will allow.
