“Crystal and her son are amazing!!! They made our boys feel right at home!! We could tell Crystal and her son provided the boys with lots of love and attention, which is quite the task with our attention seeking boxers :) Crystal is very accommodating and responsive with communication before, during and after their stay. We received pictures and updates throughout, I couldn’t have been happier with her services!! We definitely recommend Crystal and are happy that we found someone to take care of the boys instead of having them go to a kennel environment!!! They were loved and taken care of 24/7 and it showed!! :)”
“We needed a somewhat last minute sitter for our pups (in home) and Michelle was happy to help out! She was absolutely wonderful with our pups. She followed their routines and gave them lots of love which made me feel so reassured when we were away. She also communicated consistently and provided lots of pics of the pups. I will definitely reach out to her again if we need a sitter in the future!”
“This is the second time we had Tessa come and stay in our home while we were away. She took great care of our animals and was respectful of our home. I won’t hesitate to book her again for a long trip.”
“Pam did a excellent job pet sitting our April Ann and housing sitting for us. April Ann loves Pam and is very comfortable with her. Pam did everything we asked and more. We will be using her again!”
About: I've been surrounded by furry friends my whole life. Chores in my early life included taking care of my childhood cats and dogs. I also have experience raising a litter of pups and caring for senior dogs with special needs. After college, I began raising my own dog, Birdie. My dog and I love adventuring outside in the woods and I am on a mission to visit 12 National Parks with her during her lifetime. Whether it's park romps, creek runs, or nail trims, I'm a pro at keeping dog companions happy and healthy. I'm currently in between jobs, so I have plenty of availability in July, August, and September 2025. I will keep my profile updated with my availablility. I am available for house sitting, as well as early morning (before 8a), midday (11a-1p), or evening (after 4p) visits. Please reach out for scheudling Winter Holiday pet care. My daily routine starts with letting the dog out to use the restroom, then she gets fed, and then I start my day. We walk at least once a day and we try and get to the local park as often as we can (because smells in the neighborhood get boring). My nightly routine consists of letting the dog out one more time (just in case), then brushing my teeth and tucking myself into bed beside the dog, who usually gets her own pillow. Boarding services can be offered with my current living situation, however, two cats will be present (both have lived with dogs their whole life), along with my dog (she is quite friendly and loves to play keep-away with other furry friends). The yard is large and unfenced with a huge amount of woods out back. There is an outdoor kennel with a doghouse. My dog hates it but yours might like it. I have plenty of experience walking two dogs at once, so no problem taking Birdie and your dog on a walk together.
“Shayna was wonderful! My husband and I have been looking for a dog sitter for a while and we haven't been able to find someone that we liked. I am so thankful we found Shayna! Dolce loved her! And we did as well ! I would highly recommend her”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 10 years old. I’ve cared for dogs ranging from Yorkshire terriers to mastiffs. I’ve fed, walked, and entertained dogs most of my life and currently I’m a dog trainer. Currently I’m a dog trainer so I’m required to interact with dogs and learn their behaviors. I love reptiles and small animals, dogs being the most, so pet are is just something that allows me to better myself in that field. My backyard is fenced and I live in a nice area to walk dogs. I’ve studied dog behaviors and body posture so that I can better tend to how they may be feeling during anytime they’re in my care.
“Erin was fantastic with our 80 lb. ruffian rescue for a week. She took great care of him, played a lot and took him to a dog park for some running time. We would definitely have her take care of him again.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 12 years old. I grew up in a neighborhood so it wasn’t hard to find people who needed pet care. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me for overnight, boarding, walking and feeding. I am not currently working full time so I have plenty of free time to take care of your pets. It will switch to evenings and weekends once I start work again. Neighbors have always trusted me to be in their homes and with their pets. I have watched them for weeks at a time so this required being unsupervised with access to the property
