About: Hi there:) My name is Madison! I have experience running a kennel, so I am trained in medication and vaccinations! I have brief experience with obedience training if you have special needs for your pup. My life revolves around animals and I would love to help create a safe and fun environment for your fur child while you are out! I treat all animals like they are my own, so your pet will get all of the love that i give my fur kids. They will have fun playing in the yard and going on walks, we do a ton of training throughout the day and play with our Barkbox toys! I will be the only one handling your babies:) I currently work in law enforcement and am always out and about. I love working in the community and am able to take a breath during my work day to go love on some lil pups. I am always house sitting for family and friends and do my best to make sure the pets are safe and happy in their most comfortable environment. I will be the only one who will be handling your pets!

“Darah last week helped me when I was caught in between some very unfortunate events. She worked SO well with my dog and was very much so excellent to work with. I would suggest Darah to anybody!”


“Camryn is a wonderful pet sitter for our doggo and two cats. She really seems to love animals and it shows in her interactions and how she prioritizes their needs in her busy life. We were very happy with her active communication and felt much better leaving town knowing that our pets were in her care. Would not hesitate to recommend her services to others!”


About: i’ve had more pets growing up than i could count, not limited to cats and dogs, i’ve also cared for snakes, rats, birds, rabbits, hamsters, etc! i understand not all animals want to be touched, and im perfectly okay with that! caring for animals is something i pride myself in. i have a reactive / anxious dog and know how to divert attention and calmly react to high stress situations. with work i’m on one week and off the next so im home for a week and often go on long walks with my dog, i keep food out for all of my cats and dog at all times, along with a still water bowl and a water fountain bowl, both get cleaned regularly . i have experience with walking all shapes and sizes of dogs, and if i’m watching your pet i have extra crates bowls and and whole spare room if needed. i’m my house all pets are allowed on furniture and i deep clean twice a week, my dog is a trash eater so we also have lids for all trash cans and keep all bathroom doors closed.


“As a newcomer to Rover, I am beyond grateful for the wonderful experience I’ve had. Finding Lindsey to care for Rosie while I was out of town for business was truly a blessing. We recently moved to a new home without a fenced yard, and with my husband working nights, I was worried about Rosie not getting her walks in the afternoon and evening. From the moment Rosie met Lindsey, there was an instant connection, and it put my heart at ease. I also loved receiving the Rover Report Card—it brought such comfort to know exactly how Rosie was doing. Lindsey’s kindness and the transparency she provided made this experience not just reassuring but heartwarming. When I need help again, there’s no doubt I’ll be reaching out to Lindsey. Thank you, Lindsey, for being there when Rosie and I needed you most!”

Kayla is great. She’s very responsive and gives lots of feedback after each visit. I have a newly adopted dog that has some behavior issues and I wanted someone with some experience and Kayla has been able to handle anything that comes up. The dogs know when she is supposed to come and are so excited when she shows up!
