“Tonya was absolutely amazing, my Lacey had a vacation of her own staying with Tonya and her husband. She was we tired out and happy when I picked her up which is about impossible for an Aussie, would absolutely recommend and would book again. Thanks for taking such great care of my sweet girl :)”
“Our dogs were so happy to go back to Tina’s house! They barely noticed when I left. I feel so happy that they are having fun with Tina and her family—and Sophie too—while we’re away. They get to run around and play all day, and they sleep well all night too! Thanks so much Tina!”
“Kirsten and Anthony were great with Patches. I feel safe knowing I can leave my furbaby in a loving home. Patches was spoiled and loved on. I really enjoyed all the updates and pics. Thank you”
About: I have experience working in a vet clinic. I know how to access needs beyond the basics. I have experience in sitting and training. I work well with seniors. I currently work full time during the week. I will be available during the weekends to watch your furry friends! My schedule is fairly flexible during the weekend. I have a fenced in yard at my residence. Also, the house is in a safe location. I am able to drive to and from client's home. I have access to a vehicle at all times of the day.

“Absolutely loved her!!!! She was so welcoming with my dog! She would keep me updated on my dog! And she just so nice, she also took my dog to her moms house for thanksgiving so my dog wouldn’t be alone which I thought was really nice and thoughtful! Definitely recommend!! You’ll want her to babysit your dog!!”
“Such a wonderful couple that took such great care of our Kandi! Received pictures and updates of how she was doing! Thank you Tiffany and David….will definitely be using you to take care of our girl again!”
“Jessica was a fantastic sitter for Moose! I would absolutely recommend her again and again to care for your pups. She kept me updated regularly with photos and videos, and treated Moose like he was one of her own. Sounds like they may even be getting a Great Dane themselves! Thank you again, Jessica and family!”
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life, I have dog sat for my sisters and friends. I can feed, walk, and bath them. I care for my pets as if there my children and I would do the same for any pet! I got to college online and work a full time job Monday through Friday, when I’m not working I’m home with my pets! They enjoy relaxing with me and my Niko loves car rides! I can do drop in visits and dog walking on weekends any times! Message me and we can definitely work something out! I live in an apartment so I don’t have much of a yard so when it’s not super hot I take Niko on walks let him run around, he enjoys laying outside and chillin. He has so much fluff the heat gets to him ☺️
“Shana and her family--both two legged and four--were great to our dogs. We really appreciate their care while we were away! Sloopy and Mango are looking forward to returning next month.”
About: I've been around animals my whole life and they've always been loved and cared for people. Trust me with their animals and tell other people about it. I have a good rapport with the community and the people that I have sold Dogs to. “With over 7 years of dog breeding experience and a lifetime of animal care from growing up on a dairy farm with Belgian horses, caring for animals is simply a way of life for me. We run a responsible breeding program and proudly offer our own registered male Poodle, known for his excellent temperament and quality characteristics—available for both natural and artificial breeding. Pet care is my daily routine, from early morning feedings and exercise to evening cuddle time. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just being present, animals are a central part of my everyday life. Every dog is well-socialized, deeply loved, and treated like one of the family.” Pet Care with a Personal Touch Whether in my home or yours, your pet will be treated like family. I rotate dogs to give them individual attention and safe playtime with others, we have a safe and secure fence —only if they get along well. Just like kids, they get plenty of rest, fun, and love throughout the day. To keep their routine and tummy happy, I ask that you provide their regular food to meet their unique dietary needs.
