About: I have been a dog groomer for 15 years. I am now pupsitting out of my home. I love dogs of all shapes and sizes. I am currently a stay at home mom. I groom dogs out of my home every Friday and Saturday. I go to church every Sunday morning and Wednesday evening. My flexible schedule allows me to care for each pet's individual needs very easily. We have 23 acres and live off a dirt road in the countryside of Holmes County. The dogs stay with us in our home, and each dog is walked potty outside on a leash. I do have crates of all sizes here already if needed for bedtime routine.

Keylor and Grace were very accommodating when I was running late and when I picked Molly up earlier than expected. They were gracious and kind and took very good care of our Frenchie. She had such a good time with the bigger dogs; she was sad at home without them.

Brooke was a fantastic sitter for my mini bernedoodle! She texted me and sent pictures with updates. She genuinely cared about my dog and how did she while she was at her house! I will be using Brooke again! So thankful I found her :) And I’d recommend her to anyone looking for dog sitting or doggy day care!

What a great dog sitter. From meet and greet to extending a few hours upon our return to pick up. The communication, pictures, updates, and the love and care for our Chewy was a blessing to us. Thank you for making us feel comfortable leaving our senior dog with you. Extra special care was needed and Mckayla was willing to do it all.

About: From a young age, I’ve always had a soft spot for animals. I still remember the first time I saw a butterfly with a broken wing. Me and my siblings managed to create a makeshift prosthetic wing using leaves and stems. This compassion for helping others still lives with me today. Over the years I’ve taken care of my own family pets along with vulnerable animals my sister picked up along the road. When it comes to taking care of animals or even helping you out you can always rely on me. I’m currently a student and involved in sports but my school days end pretty early leaving me some extra time, I’m also free on tuesdays Although my yard is not fenced I’m surrounded by open fields trees and trails along with a state park really close, Im also willing to accommodate to any environment that’d be best suited for potential furry friends.

I’m not very good at writing reviews but I had to compliment Jennifer for her loving care of my dog Topper. She was a perfect dog sitter. She played with Topper and let him run in her fenced back yard, which he loved. She also sent lots of pictures that show him having fun so I knew he was being taken care of. I highly recommend her.

About: I’m a stay at home mom with a very flexible schedule and a great space for your fur baby to play! I’ve owned a lot of different dogs breeds my entire life ranging in size from a chihuahua to a golden retriever. I love routine and will follow your dog care needs exactly how they’re used to. They will receive a ton of love, cuddles and play time from me and my three animal loving kids. We have 5 acres of yard space to play and maintained walking trails in the back of our property for daily walks. I will only accept dogs that are potty trained and good with little kids. I’m happy to administer medication, give treats and give you plenty of updates on how they are doing as I know how hard it is to leave your pet with someone else. I am home a lot and have a very flexible schedule. I can give frequent bathroom breaks and follow whatever schedule your dog is used too I have a very large yard to run and play in and have well maintained grass walking trails on my property. Your dog(s) will receive a lot of love and attention.

About: I have done drop in and overnight care for family member's pets for many years. I am a life long animal lover and have cats and/or dogs my whole life. I also did some volunteer care at an animal shelter while in college. I am a stay at home mom of three (9, 7, and 5 year olds) kids who also love animals so I have the availability to provide a lot of time and attention. I have a fenced in yard in a beautiful country setting and two playmates for your pup. Robin is 13 year old chocolate lab mix, who we rescued from the roadside. She gave birth to 8 puppies about 2 months later and we were able to find loving homes for them all. We also have Emmett, who is a shepherd/spaniel mix that we adopted as a puppy during covid. He can be shy around new people, but loves to play with any dog he has met.

About: I've had dogs for the majority of my life. Over the past 20 years I've owned a cocker spaniel and 2 malshi. At one point I bread my Malshis and Mom had 5 beautiful puppies who I successfully placed in loving homes. I currently have one malshi who I absolutely adore. I have been a dogsitter for the past 3 years for a co-worker who travels a lot for work. I have experience with small dogs, muts and golden retrievers. I live in a lovely suburb ideal for dog walking. I also have a sizeable back yard for play. My dog loves the company of other pets. I currently work full time and work a hybrid schedule between the office and home. I have lots of dog toys for play, dog snacks and dog beds for sleeping. I have a good sized back yard with a leader for small dogs. My neighborhood is dog friendly and a great place to walk dogs. I can crate your dog if needed.

About: I have a two bully breed babies, Paris and Ozzy (Oswald). From one dog momma to another yes ofc your dog can sleep on my furniture! I am a final year ADN-RN student and a PRN Student Nurse outside of class. However, do not let those busy titles fool you I’m very very revolved around my babies and I can be with yours too! I have spent my whole childhood following into adulthood working with a variety of pups with different behaviors/personalities/ and specific needs so I’m convinced I can handle just about anything your pup has to throw at me. I’m definitely not the gal who is ashamed of going out with an extra layer of dog hair to complete my look and I’m certainly not one to pass up a slobbery kiss. We have PLENTY of toys/treats to share and lots of on the go things for walks and playtime at the dog park (don’t worry I have seatbelts for the pups, safety first!) pls reach out to me for any of your fur baby care you might need I’m very flexible as I’m just doing this truthfully for the pleasure of meeting your sweet babies, giving my gal some friends to play with, and some extra money bc lord knows living isn’t cheap as a college student, HA! Don’t feel like holding back on any questions or concerns. I promise I’m very sweet and patient as I have worked with many pups who give me a run for my money but most of the time those are the ones I love having most! I’m very flexible! I have work and school throughout the week ofc, but my schedule is very capable of being attentive to your pet(s) as well as my own. If your pup has any care/daily needs that could potentially run into a concern of yours that you believe I may not have time for don’t be afraid to discuss with me I’m more than willing to work with accommodating to your needs!! My sweet babies Ozzy and Paris are both big fan of outdoor playtime and car rides and they love inviting new friends along for adventures! I am a firm believer in dogs ARE allowed on furniture why would it be fair for them to not also be comfy on the couch or bed ?! I am pretty laid back in my home when it comes to the “pet rules” for the most part. I will treat your pup(s) like my own and ofc send you pictures and videos every time they do something I know I wouldn’t wanna miss out on seeing with my own!
