“Absolutely life saver for our dog. He has separation anxiety when we leave our home so we hired Dylan to come twice a day to spend time with him! He definitely went above and beyond. Spent so much time with him amd sent so many pictures updates. Will 100% use his services when we travel again.”
“Alivia was amazing! We were in a time crunch and she jumped right in. 😁 She stayed with our furbabies four nights and kept them really happy. When we were flying home we missed our connecting flight, and Alivia offered to drive over and check on Henry, Sparkles and Beatrix. It was such a relief! ❤️ We came home to happy furbabies, and it’s all because Alivia took such great care of them. We will definitely book with her again!”

About: Calm, relaxing, loving home for your pet! I work from home so am here almost all day and night. Safe and cared for while you’re gone. I have a huge fenced in yard, and additional acres to walk your dog leashed if you’d like me too. It’s quiet here. Your pet will be comfortable in his own space near me. We have no cats living here at this time but they are always welcomed! I will follow whatever walking, and eating instructions that you set for your pet, to keep their schedules as normal as possible to help relieve the stress of being away. Our home is their home! I’m fully insured and able to handle any needs your pet has! I was a certified medical assistant and phlebotomist (blood draws) so healthcare is in my background also. I am self employed and will be home with your pet. Your pet will be well supervised and treated as a part of the family. My home is private, quiet and safe. It is large and has a nice big fenced yard that I will walk your pet in. I will walk your dog every 2 hours and will not let your pet go outside without me. I have two dogs, Latte, a 40lb retriever mix that was a rescue, and is very sweet, but timid around people she doesn’t know, and Gracie Mae, Golden Retriever, that is 6 months old, 50 lbs, and learning to be a gentle not wild sister to Latte! I always safely separate dogs from different families.
“Nicole is wonderful to work with! The moment she met Roger (Great Pyrenees), he was comfortable with her. I appreciate how she sends photos of him throughout the day. We trust her and already have another overnight stay planned!”
“Destiny has been just fantastic. I needed a house sitter to watch over my 10 week old puppy as I could not travel with her. After a meet & greet that went extremely well, Destiny agreed to house sit for the three consecutive days. I could not be happier. Destiny took fantastic care of my puppy, taking her outside for potty breaks as needed, day or night. The regular updates with photos, videos and messages were reassuring and calming for me. Destiny also was so respectful of the house and left it as nice as when she first got here. I could not have been happier with a house sitter for my puppy. Thank you! I know my puppy misses her!”
About: I'm very good at training dogs. I have a lot of patience with dogs. I talk dog. Dogs like me and I like them. I like walking dogs as my exercise. I have had and trained many dogs since I was twenty. I care about your dog as much as you. I have two dogs and one of the most important things when I travel is who will take care of my dogs. I want someone who loves them as much as I do and that's what will happen with your dog when it stays with me, lots of love and attention. I feed them on regular schedules and take them for walks on a regular schedule also. I will make sure that they have played, peed, pooped and have plenty of water. I’m available for time to watch dogs. I just moved to the area and I’m working at home and if that changes I’ll let you know but for the most part I can watch dogs 24 seven I don’t have dogs right now, so I do Rover to get my dog to fix. Any size dog is fine I have 8 acres for them to play and if you have a water dog I have a low creek to play in

“Kylie is a lifesaver! We had to go out of town unexpectedly and she really came through for us. It's always such a peace of mind when Kylie is taking care of Salem. He even lets her pet him, which is pretty rare with our grumpy cat. 😆 Thank you again, Kylie!”
About: I have been dog/cat sitting since I was 11 and its held a place in my heart since. Walking my dog is my absolute favorite past time. Seeing happy animals makes me happy. I bond with every animal that I meet and I hope to meet so many more :) I currently work full time at a sandwich shop and part time and Ace Hardware. I do work a lot, however my real passion is caring for animals. I always make time for my pets, as I would do for yours. I live in a quiet neighborhood, where I go on plenty of walks everyday.

Carey L.
“Carey has done wonderful work with not only my dog, but with my daughter's dog. She is patient, caring, and very attentive to the dogs. While taking my dog for walks she has taught him to heal and wait to keep him safe for crossing the streets and when other dogs approach. She always checks his paws for any injuries after their walk. Carey works with the dog not only to give it exercise, but to engage his mind too. She loves my dog like her own. He is always excited to see her, even the mention of saying 'Carey's here' makes him jumping around excited. She takes him in the rain, and dries him off and snuggles with him when they are done. I could not have asked for a better dog walker/sitter, and would highly recommend her for any type dog!”

Francine G.
“I’ve known Francine for about five years and in all that time I don’t think I’ve ever seen her pass a dog without stopping to say hello to it. She truly seems to enjoy interacting with them. As far as her own pups go, I think they know more tricks than a circus dog. It’s takes patience and love to train a dog as well as hers are. I would never hesitate to leave my little friends with her.”
Michelle M.
“Michelle took amazing care of our pets — Marlo, Mika, Gaia, and Mila — while we were away. She provided walking, feeding, and overnight care, and we couldn’t have asked for a more professional and attentive caregiver. From the start, Michelle was communicative and informative, keeping us updated and ensuring we felt confident that our pets were in good hands. Her calm and friendly demeanor made it clear she genuinely cared about our animals’ well-being. We came home to happy pets and a tidy home. We’re so grateful for her help and would highly recommend Michelle to anyone looking for reliable, compassionate pet care.”

Faith B.
“Faith is a very kind girl. She lives down the street from me and every vacation I go on she insists on watching my dogs. I I have a 2 dogs and she takes care of them like they are her own. I don’t think I’ve met anyone who is crazier than her about about dogs.”
