“Emily did a great job caring for our dog while we were on vacation for a week! She sent pictures and updates daily and was very easy to communicate with. She treated our dog like one of her own, even letting him sleep in her bed when he didn’t want to sleep in his kennel! We would definitely use Emily again!”

About: My boyfriend and I have always had animals in our lives. Growing up he lived on a farm with dogs, cats, goats, pigs etc. and I have had dogs and cats my whole life. We currently have 2 beautiful Great Danes, a bunch of rabbits, outside kitties, and a chinchilla! Our dogs love people, small animals, and would love a bigger dog to run around with. We would love to cuddle with your fur babies, go for walks, or just play in the fenced yard! We currently work 4 days a week leaving Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday to watch and care for your animals. My boyfriend is an early riser and I’m a night owl, so you’re pet will have plenty of time to get the care they need. We have a 2 story house with lots of room for them to lay around and have their own space if needed. We also have a large backyard that is fenced off already for our dogs.
“I would highly recommend Yamila. Yamila and her partner, Brandon are absolute angels. They are great people and so so kind. Not only did they take great care of my dog, Zena, and helped calm her down in the thunderstorm season, they were super accommodating and worked with me to arrange Zena’s drop-off and pick-up times. Yamila is a great communicator and very responsive. My flight was delayed and she was in constant communication with me to have Zena picked up late at night. If you are looking for a sitter, definitely book with Yamila.”
“Becca was so good both with her interaction and correspondence with me, and with her loving care of my dogs. I was traveling from out of state to attend a wedding and she graciously accommodated my need for "odd hours" drop off and pick up. My dogs seemed right at home at drop off and were happy and playful at pickup. She sent photos of them on a walk part way through their stay. 10/10 would use her again and recommend her to others.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments—from playful puppies to mellow seniors. I’m comfortable with crate routines, medication administration, and high-energy breeds that need extra playtime or structured walks. Whether your dog loves belly rubs, fetch marathons, or just quiet companionship, I tailor my care to fit their personality and needs. I treat every pup like my own and always make sure they feel safe, loved, and well-exercised while you’re away. I am home all day as I work remotely! I take several breaks throughout the day to make sure the animals are taken care of. We have 2 dogs, 2 cats and 18 chickens. Our animals are out and about all day in our home and our chickens have a coop outdoors. We are always outside with our animals to ensure safety.
About: I treat every pet like family. I take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and quirks so they feel safe, loved, and understood while you're away. I'm not just here to check a box—I genuinely enjoy bonding with animals and making sure their tails keep wagging! Whether it’s going the extra mile for a nervous pup or making sure a senior pet gets their meds on time, I show up with care, patience, and a big heart. You'll get regular updates and pictures so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. Over the summer we have 24/7 care in our home. Once school starts I will only be available weekends, however I do have other people in my home to accommodate requests as needed. I have a fenced in yard and space for a crate in my home. I work to make sure the environment is clean and suits the needs of your pet.
About: I would love and treat each animal as if they were my own. I am very clean and very thorough. You will never have to worry with your animals in my care. Each animal holds a very special place in my heart. I am not doing it for the income I am doing it for my Passion of loving animals. I hope you take the time to let me watch your animals. You will not be disappointed and will be very satisfied with the quality of care your animals get. Thank you for taking the time to read thus and I hope you have a wonderful holiday. God-bless every single one of you. Don't forget to smile today. I wish someone always told me that
