1. Taylor M.

“Taylor and Beau are fantastic! Our Ollie loved them. Regular updates and photos while we were gone and they took the last minute confusion regarding our 2nd dog on the day we were leaving in stride. Will definitely use them again!”


2. Vanessa M.

“Vanessa does drop ins and walks for our Great Pyrenees & Great Dane when we travel. She is incredibly organized and thorough. She is on time and stays for the agreed amount of time each visit. Vanessa communicates details about eating habits, potential issues with meds and always leaves our house spotless. Lots of photos. Winnie & Jeb are always happy & calm when we get home 🙂”


3. Hope M.

“Hope was amazing to work with and eased all my nerves when leaving Max alone for the first time!! She took him for walks, gave detailed report cards, and sent pictures. It made the 24 hours go quickly and I would absolutely ask her to watch my pup again.”


4. Meredith E.
“Meredith was raised in a home with a love for animals. There are a select few people I would ask to house/pet sit for me, and Meredith is one of them. Not only do I have two dogs to tend to and love while I am out of town, but also ducks, chickens, cats, and bunnies. Meredith is an extremely responsible gal, and sets my mind at ease when I go on vacation. Meredith sent pictures of them playing on the acreage, and I know that all of the animals are in great hands when she is here!”


5. Eva H.
“I was so happy to find Eva! I have a 10# lap dog and a 95# lap dog who absolutely adore her as much as I do! Eva has watched my doggos for several years now. She is always very good about communicating and often sends me photos of my dogs when she is with them. She will spend longer periods of time with them when I am away for work and has been known to enjoy a movie and snuggle time with the dogs on the couch before leaving in the evening.”

About: I have 2 fur babies at home. I've been around dogs and cats my entire life. I grew up with a blue heeler in the house so I love full energy dogs! I love animals of all shapes and sizes! I am currently a full-time student at USD. I have a very flexible schedule and will always put your fur babies first! If you have any questions, please let me know! I currently have 2 cats of my own. They are allowed to do anything they want from treats to be on the counter! I grew up with a fenced yard for my dogs.


7. Thea D.
About: I grew up in a family with multiple pets at a time, ranging from dogs to cats to hermit crabs! I’ve watched dogs from 8 weeks to 16 years old and have a love for those who are a bit old and cranky. I’m also well equipped to sit pets who are blind, deaf, or have a disability of some sort. I’m currently a law school student who is looking for some work on the side. My evenings are completely free and class schedules vary every day so I’m flexible and happy to talk about what you’re looking for! I can easily crate your dog, walk on a leash, and even work on simple training commands. If you have a dog who loves to relax and chill or a dog who loves to burn energy, then I’m happy to do what I can on either end of the spectrum to help your dog feel loved and happy while you’re away!

“Kisha was great! Odin was happy and healthy when we came home. I feel very confident he was well cared for while we were gone.”


9. Margaret K.

“Margaret was amazing at sending me updates and reassuring me while I was out of town. She even took time to try to get my extremely shy kitty to eat treats and you could tell that my cat was getting more and more comfortable each day! She is a great pet sitter!”

18. Taryn T.
About: I have had a love for dogs ever since I was little. All my neighbors and friends always can count on me to help out with the needs of their pets while they are away. I currently work a very flexible job that allows time for me to walk dogs during the day or go let them out and give them their basic needs. I am very respectful of how each persons pet needs to be taken care of and will make sure your pet gets the best care while in my hands!


19. Maddie G.
About: I am a coach, with fairly flexible hours, meaning I can craft my days around your pet! I would have a dog of my own, although the flexible hours, we travel a decent amount of weekends during the fall and spring. I am available most weekdays and weekends, with the ability to go out and give your pet long walks, dog parks, and cuddles! I am an active human, so I would love to take your dog out for a long run and/or run. I have my own cat, and have an array amount of toys and fixture's for your cat to use and play with. My space is big enough for the pets to run around and be active in. It is pet friendly, and allows dogs and cats to run freely as there is little to no things they can get in to. It will be a great, safe place to keep your pet. I will also make sure to send you lots of photos and videos of your pet, as I know it's so hard to leave your furry friend behind.


20. Brooke J.
About: I have taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 7. I use to care for the dog that I ended up adopting. I can provide walks, food, baths, lots of cuddles, attention, and awareness of situations. I am very watchful. I work full time however, my house is less than a minute walk from my place of work so I can easily check-in as much as needed. I currently have a dog who I adopted and is just the sweetest thing. I have a medium-sized dog who likes most people and dogs. I can care for your pet in your home or my own. My dog is very capable of being by herself if she needs to be. I also am good at giving dogs long walks, providing attentive care, and plenty of exercise. I do not have a yard but I will right across from a huge open space that your dog will love to play in.
