“Teddy spent a weekend with Morgan and her family, and loved it!”
“Genna and Terry were wonderful with our two dogs Sophie and Myles. They played with them endlessly and got em tired out several times. They kept me posted with pictures and let me know how they were doing so I didn't have to worry about them. As sad as I am to say this my Sophie would rather be with Genna and Terry so as a dog parent I have to step up my game. I would strongly recommend Genna and Terry to anyone who needs a pet sitter and I will be recommending them to all my family and friends in the area s well as making them my regular per sitter.”

About: I treat every dog like they’re my own—spoiled, snuggled, and talked to like they understand English perfectly (which, let’s be honest, they probably do). Dogs have always been a big part of my life—I’ve grown up around them, lived with them, and loved every slobbery kiss and wagging tail, no matter the breed! Pet care fits perfectly into my schedule—I work 7am to 3pm on week days, so I’m free for evening walks and full-time weekend pet sitting. I have a large fenced in yard with plenty of space to run and play. We currently have three dogs that will be able to keep your pup company and to play with.
About: I have experience with birds, fish, and animals from pocket pets to cows. I've had dogs and cats my entire life. I foster animals for scott County humane society. I work m-f 7 am to 5:30 pm. I am able to care for animals on weekends and evenings. I could do a lunch break visit. I have a fenced in yard and lots of space in my house. I have a large crate if needed. I am in a safe neighborhood for walks.
“Sierra was amazing! She has a lot of knowledge and love for critters! She sent us photos and videos of our Gus. He was so happy with Sierra. We will definitely be using her again.”
About: I've been around dogs since I can remember. All but one of my jobs have been involved around dogs. I am a Daycare attendant at the bark bark club Currently right now. I do have a normal 9 to 5 job during the week. But I am off on Wednesdays and Fridays. But I do work on Saturdays and Sundays for like 4 to 6 hours. I am very flexible with taking care of your pet in between shifts to the like. I don't mind going back to your house and I haver never had this be problem I will Crate your dogs if you want or I can leave them outside of their crate it all just depends on what you want
