7. Colleen G.
“Colleen was awesome with our nine-week-old puppy! She taught Austin to sit and gave us some great tips for helping us through the teething process. Additionally, she calmly alerted us to a bump on Austin's head, that ended up being an infected patch of skin. Colleen will give amazing care and attention to your dog as well. We will definitely have her back again and would highly recommend her as well!”

11. Jennifer F.
About: I have been a dog owner for over 30 years. I have a love for dogs and enjoy caring for them. I have 3 dogs of my own. I work remotely from home so I am pretty much always available. I am available for boarding and/or pet sitting, care any day during the week and weekends. I can care for your pet in my home or yours. I have a large fenced in yard. I have 3 friendly, loving doggies that enjoy fur baby guests. If needed I have an extra kennel for your pet.

13. Courtney B.
“Courtney was great and patient with our skittish dogs. They were not easy on her and she was very kind”
14. Hannah G.
“Hannah was quick to respond and was a life saver for my husband and I. We thought we had someone ready to go and they had to cancel last minute. Hannah came over and learned the nitty gritty of taking care of our very needy German shepherd (poor dog is on a lot of medications). She was sending texts and pictures all day of the animals. She had to stay at our home and she treated our home with respect. Would definitely book her again. Thanks Hannah.”
15. Rachel E.
“Rachel has watched my pets and house many times. She is dependable and great at a moment's notice. If I have a meeting run late, Rachel always saves me by running over to let my pups out and to feed them dinner! Her kids are great with my old lady doggies too! 5 stars!”
16. Bonnie S.
About: Hi! My goal is to make sure your pet is safe and comfortable while getting the best form of care I can provide. Growing up with animals, especially dogs, has taught how to be a patient and caring person. I’ve built a relationship with my own dog off of trust and want to do the same while caring for your pupper! I’m a focused and detail oriented person and will work to ensure all your specific needs are met. Currently I’m working part time, so I have a flexible and pretty open schedule to take care of your pets. I’m also good with last minute changes and can easily switch around my schedule for what works best for you! I live in a small town with plenty of areas to walk dogs and I also have a fenced in back yard. I have one dog and two cats that do well around other animals, as well as a trustworthy vehicle to take me to your location.
17. Alicia W.
About: I’ve taken care of big, small and medium dogs of all different breeds for three years. I’ve even cared for cats as well. My family has always ran to me with their animal needs and I have bathed, fed, walked and have had genuine play time with every single one of them. I currently work full-time but get home around 6 pm everyday. I can do nights and do not work weekends at all. I’ll have plenty of time for your pets! I will leave your dog/house looking better than when I arrived. I will go above and beyond for your fur babies as I have one of my own, and couldn’t imagine them not having the best care!
18. Lilly S.
About: I have extensive experience caring for dogs of various ages and temperaments. I currently have two dogs of my own—a 3-year-old and an 8-year-old—both of whom I’ve raised from a young age. One of my dogs is an indoor companion, while the other is a well-trained outdoor dog. In addition to my hands-on experience, I have shown dogs of various breeds and have collaborated with breeders, which has provided me with valuable insight into different training techniques and dog behaviors. I’m passionate about spending quality time with dogs, whether it’s through daily walks, adventures on rail trails, or simply enjoying their company. I believe that understanding and adapting to each dog’s unique personality is key to providing exceptional care and building a strong bond. My approach focuses on trust, consistency, and creating a positive environment tailored to each dog’s needs. I work full-time as a CNA, in long term care. I have a set schedule and work three days a week which leaves me time to spend with your fur babies. I work every Tuesday, and every other Wednesday, Friday, Saturday & Sunday. At times, I will have 5 days off in a row. I have time on my days off to stay home with them and spend as much time as possible. I provide exceptional care for animals in a comfortable, home-like environment. In my home, I ensure that all their needs are met, including medication administration, playtime, and baths upon request. I offer a variety of toys and treats to keep them engaged and happy. Additionally, I have a dedicated, remodeled dog room equipped with everything a dog could need for a safe and enjoyable stay.
19. Carly P.
“We had a few struggles in finding people and Carly went out of her way to work something out in her schedule so she could help us. She was communicative and has previous experience that made me comfortable giving her the flexibility to do what she wanted to do during her stay with the dog. I could tell Bristol was well taken care of and the house was in perfect shape too, so Carly was clearly very respectful of people’s space! So appreciative that she made the effort to help us the way she did.”
20. Adeline D.
“There just aren’t enough good things to say about Adeline. The way she has cared for my dog has been absolutely exceptional. She truly cares so much about our best friends and has always made me feel as though my dog was a part of her family. She is always professional, respectful, and courteous!”
