About: I've had many years of dog experience. Working in a dog Inn, I've met dogs of all shapes, sizes and temperaments. From very anxious pups to reactive older dogs, I can garentee your pup will be well loved under my care. I've been doing training for several years, we practice positive reinforcement training in our home. My own pup is special needs, being born with megaesophagus. It is important to me to make sure your pup feels safe and comfortable in my care, and if your pup needs some special attention I will happily help! Im working a part time job, so I will have plenty of time to spend with your fur babies! Any day of the week, no matter of early or late. If your dog was to stay in our home, we have a lovely half an acre yard for them to play in. I have two friendly pups in my home, but I also have two extra rooms. So if your pup wants to be alone and play, my dogs will be put away in their kennels while your pup is around. If your pup needs to be kenneled, that works too! They would have a quiet room to be kenneled in. Making sure your pup is comfortable is our biggest priority, whether it's in my home or yours!
“I can't recommend Monica enough for anyone in need of a caring, reliable, and overall amazing dog sitter. She was incredibly responsive and accommodating, making the booking process a breeze. During our time away, Monica kept me updated with regular photos, a video and messages, which really put my mind at ease knowing that our Gracie was happy and well taken care of. You can tell that Monica has a genuine love for animals. Upon returning home, I could tell that my dog had a fantastic time with Monica and her family. Gracie was relaxed and happy. I will definitely feel comfortable with leaving Gracie at her house again when we need to go away.”
“Noel was amazing she was very sweet and took good care of my pug while I was out of town she sent me constant updates with pictures. I highly recommend her for any boarding needs!”
“McKenna and family took such great care of Rocko! We received frequent updates and photos and loved seeing how comfortable he was there. We look forward to having Rocko stay again!”
About: I've been taking care of dog for as long as I can remember. I'm able to take care of/ watch dog from puppies to seniors. I've watched dog with and without disabilities, and I know how to administer medications from pills to shots. I also know how to preform cpr and the heimlich if needed. I currently have a part time job where I get to choose when to work. So I'm able to spend time with the fur babies whenever. I'm very respectful of my clients homes, and I follow rules that they set of me. I like to keep my clients updated on what's going on with plenty of photos, and I always try to make sure the fur babies I'm watching have a good time.
About: I am a dedicated dog lover and sitter. I provide personalized care for each dog, focusing on their unique needs. With a bit of experience and local knowledge, I ensure a safe and fun environment. I treat every dog like my own, providing regular updates and love while you’re away. I am currently working part time, and would love to fill the rest of the time with my other passion of pet sitting for the community. I make sure pets have their needs and time such as food, exercise, grooming, and training. My dogs and cats at home are very loving and I think the main reason is for the attention I spend with each one.
“Jasmine was always quick to respond and happy to answer any questions. She took good care of our dog, who had the whole basement to herself during her stay. We would definitely use Jasmine's services again!”
About: Hello! My name is Courtney B. I’m 29 years old and can say I’ve been an animal lover for all those years! I’ve always been surrounded by animals growing up from cats & dogs to birds and lizards! My favorite thing about them all is their unique personalities. I’ve taken care of a countless number of animals and have helped family and friends with theirs when needed! I recently lost my favorite pup in the world and that was the most heartbreaking day ever!!! But I still have my cat to keep me company on the sad days. She is my little snuggle bug.

I live in a house with a big back yard, whether you need your pet to be taken out on a leash or I also have a doggy tie-out anchor which I can hook your pup up to to enjoy the outside on it’s own with being securely fastened. I have hooked up large breed-dogs to it and have had no problem!

If your have a set schedule for your pup I will do the same. I also have a fenced yard for them to safely go outside.
About: I’ve never had a time where I did not have at least one dog. I love animals and would love to help give your pups a place to feel comforted and loved when you are away. I do work full-time but am typically only out of the house from 8:30am to about 4pm daily. After this we are home all evening and able to care for the pups as needed! I have a big fenced in yard for running and playing! I have 4 kids and 2 dogs of my own to play with! We are a cat free home to cater to those dog breeds that a natural critter chasers!
About: I currently have 1 dog and 2 cats. I previously have fostered puppies, adult dogs, and kittens from a local shelter. I also used to have 12 rats! I love all animals, but especially small animals like rats, mice, guinea pigs, and hamsters! I currently don’t work, so my schedule is wide open! I can stop in any time during the day or night for anything! Or stay all day or night! I will take care of your pets like they are my own! My dog is my everything so I know how important animals are to us! I will follow all instructions and take care of them the same way you would!

Everyone's needs are put first, including her fur babies!”

My dogs get excited realizing they are going to her place, and always run to her when we arrive. They play well with her dog Kota, we joke that my boy Tucker and her Kota are best friends. I highly recommend Karen as a pet boarder, sitter, walker, or for any of your pet's needs!”
