“Chloe did a a fabulous job watching our little girl. She spent lots of time playing with her and gave her ample supervised outdoor time. She even left Cat TV on for our girl while she was away. Chloe sent us multiple updates with pictures and was always very responsive. We are also very appreciative with how much time Chloe was able to spend with our kitty while we were away, ensuring that she did not get lonely. We highly recommend Chloe and will be booking her in the future! :)”

“Emma helped us with last minute pet help so we could still go on a trip! She was friendly, knowledgeable and confident with our anxious senior dog. It's always a bit of stress when introducing our reactive dog to someone new but Emma was perfect! Would absolutely recommend Emma to anyone needing care! Thanks again!”

“Audrey was really great with our dogs! Communicated well and in a timely manner. Took our dogs on walks and cared for them while we were away. We received updates and photos! Will definitely use her again if in need of another dog sitter.”


About: Hey guys! I'm just a Midwest girl living in my Midwest world! I have the typical Veteran husband and one of our three kids still living at home! We have a 7 pound Chihuahua and two kittens who are the current rulers of the home. I bring a professional, hands-on background to every dog I care for, shaped by my experience supporting K9 work in the military and training dogs across a wide range of needs. From guiding young puppies through early obedience and socialization to reinforcing structure and confidence in adult dogs, I focus on calm, consistent, and respectful handling. My approach blends proven training principles with genuine affection—clear communication, routine, and trust, paired with plenty of attention and care. On our private 20-acre property, dogs have the space to decompress, explore safely, and enjoy a peaceful environment while still receiving individualized guidance and close supervision. While we do have 20 acres that we can walk through we also have a fenced in area and GPS Fence collars for your dog to use. Depending on the training your dog has been through we can work with you to see what fits best. I am a full time mom who homeschools her kid. My husband is home part time so most of the time we are home if not pup will be crated. I have a fenced in yard and a pet safe GPS collar for the pups. So no matter what the pup will be secured. There is no gate to leave the fenced in area so to leave you have to go through the house.
“Tanya is WONDERFUL. She was very patient and understanding and took time to get to know my neurotic little pup. She sent pictures and gave daily updates - I definitely recommend her others.”

“Amy was an amazing sitter! I felt completely at ease having her in my home with my dogs, who absolutely adored her. She kept me updated throughout their stay, sent lots of pictures, and even handled a tornado warning, making sure the dogs were safe and secure. I would highly recommend her and would happily have her sit again in the future!”


“Heather was great with communication, sending photos and videos of her time with our dog.. She took him on many walks and hikes. Knowing she was there made us so much more comfortable leaving him!”

“Randy was great start to finish. He stayed at our home with our pups. He shared pictures and updates everyday! It made the weekend more enjoyable knowing they were happy and taken care of!”

“Eric watched our dog Sterling for six days/nights and Sterling seemed to enjoy time spent together with Eric. Sterling was at ease around Eric from the get-go. Sterling had meds he was finishing up and Eric took over dosing Sterling for us. Eric kept us abreast of their time together with texts and photos, which we appreciated so much. If were to need a dog sitter again we would call Eric.”

About: I have managed a boarding facility for the last 8 years. I decided that our fur babies need a lot more attention. I have bathed pups, done nails, given meds including insulin, built bonds with fearful dogs with patience and time. I have always owned senior animals so I do well with our senior fur babies as well with gentle loving care. My life has evolved around pet care. I have worked 60+ hours a week at a boarding facility. So I can be available 24 hours a day to keep strictly to your pet care routine. Routines are important with our fur babies I will make sure your pups and cats are fed on time. Taken out regularly and clean up where ever they do potty. I will play with them outside or inside so they get both physical stimulation and love on them for the emotional and mental stimulation

“Regan was great with Ellie. She came over to meet in advance and was great with updates while we were away. Having a responsible pet sitter so close to home is going to be a godsend.”
“Ashley was a perfect fit for us. She was able to come meet our stranger adverse dog before the stay. She was able to stay with our dog while we were away and kept us informed, with pictures. She was respectful of our space, our dog, and us. We look forward to using her again.”

“Aubrey took care of our sweet Morty for a few days. Morty has some health challenges, and Aubrey was confident administering all of his meds. She was communicative, and we really appreciate the care she provided to Morty.”

“I cannot say enough good things about Kristen. She was amazing. Throughout my vacation I received frequent communication (pictures and info) which was very much appreciated. My dog has a history of seizures and unfortunately had 2 while we were gone. Kristen did exactly as we instructed and handled them like a pro. She kept our house spotless and left it exactly how it was when we left. We will be using her anytime we travel in the future. I highly recommend her to anyone.”
