“Have had Kaylee watch my dog Bruno multiple times now she is a great sitter always sends me updates and is very easy to communicate with Will always see if Kaylee is available first if im in need of a sitter”


“Phyllis is Great with our Max!! She is beyond patient with our small dog who is HIGHLY energized! She did everything possible to keep him safe, calm, and happy during a rainy and LOUD holiday weekend for the July 4th! Which is no small thing concerning he is extremely scared of fireworks and bad weather! I highly recommend her to care for your fury family members! She treats them just like they are her own! Can’t thank her enough!”

About: I’ve taken care of large, active breeds and smaller, more relaxed pups - all are welcome! All pets will have the opportunity for consistent, safe walks on post with play and attention throughout the day. I am available throughout the work week to help ensure pets are able to get their walks in or to host (at our home or yours) for training or weekend passes and leave. Happy to coordinate a routine schedule or arrange for unexpected care! I have a fenced in yard in Bowden terrace, with a large residential field nearby to take for fetch or for walks around the block. At home, we have a relaxed corgi of our own; your pet is welcome to lounge in the front room, receive healthy snacks (with your approval), and may either sleep in the open or in a kennel for the evening if you prefer. All care will be coordinated with you to ensure your pet feels welcome and comfortable!

“Chris and his family were wonderful! We booked last minute and we couldn’t have asked for anyone better. Super communicative and loved on our pups like they were his own. We Will be booking with Chris whenever we need a sitter.”


“Amber was great! She made sure Dexter and Bella would get along with her and her dogs before even accepting my request. She listened to all my special care instructions and even let me know of any concerns that arose over their stay with her. I definitely recommend!!”


“Jennifer was great with my little buddy ‘Valentine’. She shared photos throughout his stay and sent him home with a bag of bacon strips. (A bag he chewed through later that night to indulge himself - caught him with a strip hanging out his mouth!!🤪)”


About: I all dogs, large and small! I have previous experience with walking dogs and taking care of dogs. . I enjoy volunteering at the animal shelter to walk the dogs boarding there. I have grown up with dogs in my household and have lived around many dogs my entire life. I will treat your pet how I would expect mine to be treate.

“Some people you just know you can trust early on when you meet them and Ramona is one of those people. She asks the questions you expect an experienced sitter to ask and has a safe and comfortable place for your pooch to stay.”


“Fantastic care. My dog at first didn’t care I was there when I picked her up because she was having a good time. Her kids are gentle and sweet with the dogs. The place was very clean and tidy which is a plus. She was very flexible with pick up and drop off 10/10 would rover again.”


About: Hello my name is James, I am able to help with anything from watching your pets in your home preferably to daily walks & feeding! I have two cats myself and have watched family and friends pets for over a year when needed. I have reliable transportation and military access. I would love to help with your pets! Having pets on my own (two cats) pet care is something I understand and am sure to be able to provide quality care for you when in need. I believe pets are part of the family and should be treated as such. Because of this I aim to provide your pets high quality care while doing so with integrity and respect.

“Brittany’s entire family was attentive and loving. Her yet fur babies were so welcoming and extremely friendly and chill. She has plenty of indoor and outdoor space and made Athena feel right at home. I will definitely be booking with her again! Very experienced and highly recommend.”


“Diamond was very professional, kind, and communicative with us while our boy Koda was staying with her! We received pictures and updates frequently and he looked happy in every photo! Our Koda can be very timid around new people, but he made himself at home right away with Diamond and loved playing with her dogs. We recommend Diamond to anyone who is looking for an attentive and experienced caretaker for their pets!”


“Savannah is wonderful and has always taken such great care of Molly! Molly loves playing with Savannah’s dog and her family. I highly recommend Savannah for any of your pet needs.”


About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was strong enough to hold a leash and carry dog food! I have fostered 61 dogs and puppies of all breeds and sizes. I have never lived without a dog and currently have nine, two of which live in Auburn with me. I am trained in giving insulin shots and other types of medication. I have trained all of my own dogs leash and other basic commands. I also have experience blind, deaf, and diabetic dogs/puppies. I am a full-time student so my availability varies day to day. I usually drive home to Ozark on Fridays and come back Sundays. I can walk and let dogs out for potty breaks in between my classes. I am flexible with schedules. I have a gated porch area and an unfenced yard. I will walk dogs multiple times a day at the trails, ponds and fields located in Conway Acres. I am also 10 minutes away from Kiesel Dog Park and Chewacla State Park. I have two dogs currently living with me. Sally is a love bug and has never met a stranger. Sheba can take some time to warm up, so I typically leave her in my bedroom when introducing new dogs to my trailer.

“Chris was such a savior for us when our travel plans were derailed by flight delays! He sent lots of pictures of our golden Squid having the best time and we felt assured he was in capable hands! We are so grateful.”
