“Thank you, Faith! Our dog has only ever stayed with family, so it was a big change to leave him with someone new. Faith came highly recommended and was wonderful about communication, setting up a Meet & Greet with us and our dog, and a pleasure to work with. He's queued up for another stay already!”


“I couldn't be more grateful to this wonderful couple for taking care of my pup! They made him feel right at home, treating him like one of their own. It was clear they gave him tons of love and attention. Sending me pictures to let me see all the fun he was having. Thank you for making him feel so comfortable and cared for — I’ll definitely be coming back next time I need a sitter!”


“Five stars is not enough! We left Chewbacca with Karen for a few days this week. Chewbacca has various specific needs, including oral medication and prescription diet, and he gets very nervous when first dropped off. We have never had such a strong sense of peace of mind with a dog sitter as we did this weekend. Karen was extremely communicative, updated us through text and pictures throughout the day, and always made sure to go the extra mile so Chewbacca felt safe and cared for. We will absolutely be calling her again!”



“Having had such an excellent experience previously with Debra, it was easy dropping our two dogs off for an overnight stay. Once again, she had good communication and she sent photos so that I could see what a good time they were having. It's nice to know your dogs are in good hands.”


“Jessica was wonderful with my dog, Luna. She kept us updated the whole time and was responsive to Luna’s unique needs. We will definitely use Jessica again in the future, we highly recommend her!”


“Reesi and Tanner made themselves right at home with Sindy and her family within a few minutes after arriving there. We were a bit concerned about how they might adjust in a new place with new people, but we soon discovered we didn't have to worry at all. We were able to leave them for the day and not worry about a thing. Sindy even sent us several pictures of them throughout the day to let us know they were safe and sound while we were able to enjoy our 4-year-old grandson's birthday party in another state. We highly recommend Sindy when you need someone to care for your pets while away!”


“We cannot sing the praises of Mikayla and Alen enough. They cared for our puppy - a challenge for anyone - and integrated him into their daily routine. He enjoyed being there and playing with their dog (and cat) and felt right at home. Having someone take care of our "baby" while we are on vacation and not have to worry about him is such a relief. We will be using this couple again shortly, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone concerned about leaving their furbaby behind.”


“Jo takes wonderful care of our dog. I highly recommend her, as I always feel confident our pup is getting great care, exercise and attention in a lovely home environment. Thank you Jo!”


“Andrea and her husband took such great care of our lab! From the daily updates and pictures, we could tell that Penny was comfortable and happy. Andrea is an excellent communicator and is very flexible. We will certainly look to book with her again in the future. Thank you both (and Khloe & Cholo!) for taking such great care of our girl!”


“I recently boarded my dog with Daria for the first time, and I was a bit nervous since it was my dog's first experience staying in a stranger's house. However, Daria was amazing! She made my dog feel comfortable and at ease right away. The updates and pictures she sent showed how well my dog was adapting and enjoying the stay. Her kindness and attention to detail made all the difference. I highly recommend Daria for anyone needing a reliable and caring dog sitter, especially for first-timers!”


“Sherisse and her family took wonderful care of our dog. Our dog came back to us tired and happy! She is friendly and very responsive in the app. We would absolutely use her again!”


“We booked last minute and they were very accommodating. Teddy seemed super happy when we got him back from boarding. They even gave him a bath! Would recommend.”


About: I have been taking care of animals since I was young. I grew up on a farm with horses, chickens, Turkeys, and dogs. I have rescued and fostered 13 litters of kittens and 3 adult feral cats who have all found homes. I specialize in neonatal kittens and can bottle feed. I have experience with dog training, walking, and pet sitting. I am a responsible owner of two mini schnauzers and live with my husband and Toddler daughter. I can always be reached by cell phone and email if you have any questions or concerns! Looking for some extra income and would love to meet new fur friends! I will make sure your dog is well taken care of and let out per your instructions to prevent any accidents. I usually let dogs out three times a day Every animal will be cared for as if they are my own. With love and respect along with cuddles and treats! Of course within reason.

“Myles had a great day with Crystal. I was happy to get a picture of him during the day so I knew he was doing well. We will definitely use Crystal again.”


“I wish that everything in life was as easy and enjoyable as boarding my dogs with Julie. My dogs ask me almost daily if they can visit with Julie and Daphne again.”


“Trisha was amazing! She took extra good care of our Oreo while we went went away for the weekend! Extra walks and love! Above and Beyond! Exceeded my expectations! I will definitely be using her services again! ?”


“Juliana and family have watched Charlie several times and he is so happy and it's like he is going on vacation too. They send photos and he loves playing with their dogs and kids. I can't recommend them enough ❤️🐾❤️🐾”


About: About me: As someone who has grown up surrounded by pets of all kinds, I have had the great opportunity to fall in love with animals and all their unique personalities. Ranging from dogs and cats, to Guinea pigs and bearded dragons, I’ve cared for a variety of pets, and I want each one that comes through that door to feel loved and cared for for the time that they are here. Your pet: I would love to hear about what makes your pet different and unique so that I can make their stay a great one. Where they’ll be staying: I live in an house with a big backyard, with plenty of room for playing. It is unfenced so all furry friends will be carefully supervised. Every pet will have the opportunity to stay in the downstairs part of the home where the temperature is controlled, keeping it cool in the summer and cozy in the winter. Located on a fairly quiet street with some trails nearby, your pup will be able to go on some new adventures while they’re here. Here at my house I have a standard size poodle mix, a bearded dragon, and a Guinea pig. My dog loves spending time with other dogs so he’d be more than happy to get some extra play time with them in if your pup enjoys the company. And they’ll be no contact with the two small exotics so they’re no worries there. Health and Safety: I am able to administer any oral medicines, just let me know when to give it to them! I cannot do injected medication. Should an emergency occur, I am located within a five minute drive of two different emergency vets, so your furry friend will be able to receive care quickly and efficiently should they ever need it. Training: I love training my own dog, and would love to help train yours as well. I can continue any training they’re already going through, or teach them something new! Simply discuss it with me ahead of time and I can see if I can make it happen. Baths: If you want your furry friend squeaky clean on their way home, I’m more than happy to make that happen for you. For a small fee I’ll have your pup shining and smelling great once more! And finally, if there’s anything special your pet needs, please let me know! I want your beloved pet to feel at home and to be content while staying here. I am always free Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, so if you ever need a weekend away from home, I’m here to watch your pet and keep them having fun! If you need a longer boarding time, I can do that, please be aware that your dog will be left unsupervised in their own room for up to 2 hours at a time throughout the weekdays for when I am not home. With a nice big yard, trails nearby, and someone always in watching distance of your pet, you can rest assured that your pet will stay out of trouble while still having fun.

About: If you’re looking for someone to care for your dogs, you found the right person. My flexibility is vast. I can care for dogs at your house or mine, travel dogs, to dog parks, hiking trails, places to swim, or just cuddle on the couch I have flexibility for multiple visits during the day and multiple trips outside as needed. I am very flexible with caregiving for animals and can adapt to various routine needs for your pets, including overnights. My flexibility allows for multiple visits during the daytime or nighttime. I have a fenced in backyard, my own dog and cat who are fairy friendly with other animals. I live in a safe neighborhood and have reliable transportation as needed.

“Robert took great care of our senior dog, Brady, while we were away. He is very caring and made Brady very comfortable, like he was at home, and gave him lots of attention. I highly recommend Robert. Thank you Robert for all the pics and the quick responses!”
