House Sitting Poplar Grove

“Tawny was so great with our dog, Hank! Took her on walks and was very attentive with her. He is an excellent communicator. Keeping us up to date before he arrived and while watching Hank. I would definitely book him again!”

“My wife and I have asked Michelle to house and dog sit several times and she continues to be incredible. We trust her with everything! We just got back into town from a 5 day trip and she cleaned the sheets, towels, bathroom, kitchen, living room, and fridge before she left. We know our dog is in great hands - she sends several updates per day, each with better pictures of our dog than we are able to take.”

Garrett P.

“Mark is the best! He kept us thoroughly updated on his and our dogs’ days, and we so appreciated it. He made sure our Willy was comfortable with him. He went above and beyond and he’s amazing. Will always use him.”

Andrea L.

“Our dog and chickens were well cared for during her stay at our house! She provided a ton of photos and communication throughout the week and really went above and beyond. We returned to a clean home and happy animals. I cannot recommend Xochilt enough!”

“Zoe was amazing! Our German Shepherd is typically an anxious dog around new people but Zoe made him feel comfortable almost immediately. We felt very secure knowing that he was being well taken care of. Plus we got lots of pics and updates throughout our time away. We will definitely be having Zoe over again to watch Obi!”

Valerie C.

“Dana was great with my very shy pup during the initial meet-and-greet and was very communicative! She was also amazing when my poor pup came down with a serious case of the scratchies before I left. Dana had no issues administering oral medication or swabbing the area. I also appreciated the updates she provided so I had peace of mind while away from home. My pets seemed loved and cared for in my absence and my apartment was clean as well.”

Toria B.

“Nathalia was absolutely amazing! Our two cats and dog were all so happy and clearly well cared for when we got home. She was incredibly communicative, responded quickly to messages, and kept us updated with photos and messages throughout our trip. It was obvious she spent plenty of quality time with them, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We would absolutely trust her with our pets again and highly recommend her!”

Hayden R.

“Mara was wonderful with my dogs. She's incredibly sweet and they immediately loved her upon our meet and greet. She sent plenty of pictures and updates and went above and beyond. Highly recommend and will be booking with her again!”

About: What sets me apart is my patience and understanding of different pet personalities. I have a Frenchie of my own who definitely keeps me on my toes, so I truly understand that every dog has their quirks. I’ve learned how to stay calm, consistent, and loving even on the challenging days. Because of that, I’m especially attentive, patient, and committed to making sure every pet feels safe, understood, and cared for. Pet care is already a consistent and meaningful part of my daily routine. I care for my own Frenchie every day, so feeding schedules, walks, playtime, training, and patience are second nature to me. I’m used to structuring my day around a dog’s needs, making sure they get attention, exercise, and consistency. Because of this, adding another pet into my routine feels natural, I’m already organized, dependable, and committed to giving animals the time and care they deserve. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine so they feel safe and comfortable. I follow feeding schedules closely, provide plenty of fresh water, and make sure they get appropriate exercise, playtime, and rest. I’m attentive to their body language and energy levels so I can adjust care to their needs. For dog walking, I prioritize safety by using secure leashes and harnesses, choosing safe walking routes, and keeping a steady pace that fits the dog’s age and energy level. I always make sure pets return home calm, happy, and well cared for.

“Maya was fantastic! She sent great updates and photos while I was away, left the house super clean, and was really great with my cats and dog!”

Mandy F.

“I left my dogs at my house with Heather for almost 2 weeks and they must have gotten a lot of attention because they didn't even care when I came home ? Also normally the first thing I do when I come home is clean but there was nothing to clean, which was very nice. Spotless house, happy dogs!”

About: I have been pet sitting and walking dogs for family and friends for about seven years. During that time, I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities, giving me experience adapting to each pet’s unique needs. Some of the dogs that I’ve regularly cared for include my Mom’s 2- year old Yorkshire Terrier, Monroe, who I watch monthly for around a week at a time, I take to vet appointments, groomer appointments, and walk almost hourly; my family friend’s 15- year old Pit Bull, Poke; another friend’s 18-year old Chihuahua, Seabastian; and my family’s 5 year old dog, Miniboss. I’ve also looked after several other dogs over the years, helping with walks, feeding, playtime, potty training and breaks, and providing companionship while their owners were away. What sets me apart is my patience, reliability, and genuine love for animals. Caring for senior dogs like Poke and Seabastian has taught me to pay close attention to their comfort, routines, and changing needs, while spending time with younger dogs like Monroe and Mini Boss has helped me keep up with energetic play, exercise, and maintaining consistent routines. I understand that every dog is different, so I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, so I always communicate clearly with owners and am happy to provide regular updates and photos. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, quiet companionship, or extra patience and attention, I’ll care for them as if they were a part of my own family. My goal is to make sure both you and your pet have a positive, stress-free experience. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate times to walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week. I enjoy being active, so taking dogs on walks and spending quality time with them is something I genuinely look forward to. When caring for a pet, I make it a priority to follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and any special instructions from their owner. I also make sure to provide plenty of attention, affection, and regular updates with photos so owners can feel confident that their pets are happy, safe, and well cared for while they’re away. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, my goal is to help them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, including their feeding schedules, exercise needs, favorite activities, and any special instructions, so I can keep their day as consistent as possible. In a client’s home, I treat both their pet and their home with respect. I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, bathroom breaks, freshwater, and lots of affection while maintaining the routine they’re used to. I’m also happy to send regular updates and photos so you can see how well your pet is doing while you’re away. Safety is always my top priority. I pay close attention during walks, make sure doors and gates are secure, and keep a close eye on each pet to ensure they’re happy, healthy, and comfortable. I care for every pet as if they were my own and strive to make every visit a positive experience.

“Lilly was great with my pup. She made sure to spend time playing with him everyday, and remembered to give him his probiotics. She was very communicative and sent pics during the booking. My house was in perfect condition when I returned as well. Will definitely hire her again.”

About: I have always been the go-to friend, when it comes to taking care of their pets while they are away. Over the years I have had experienced all sorts of dogs and cats, and have given them all the care and love as I do my own pets. ❤️ I’m a full time hairstylist who’s just wanting some animal interaction away from the salon. I have Mondays available from 11-3 to snuggle, walk and play with your fur babies. If I am making a home visit, I will spend 40-60 minutes with your beloved pet. Making sure water is topped off, and feed if need, while giving your pet undivided attention in your absence. If I am dog walking, my dog and I will stop in and take your dog for a fun jaunt and play in the park. (40-60 min). (If my dog doesn’t get along with your dog, we can make it just me.)

About: I love animals and have always been the go-to for friends and family when pet sitting. I had a senior cat that required daily injections and medications for many years, so I’m happy to work with senior pets who may need medications and other special TLC. I don’t have space for a dog of my own right now, so helping out with others’ makes me so happy! I work full time for a gardening organization, but my days and work hours are flexible so it’s easy to fit your pet and their needs into my day. I mostly work outside, and my office is pet friendly, so if your pup doesn’t like to be left alone, I can always bring them with! I have a fenced backyard and am happy to have your dog in my space. I prefer to sit dogs at their houses so they’re in spaces they know and aren’t stressed in, but am always happy to bring pups to my house or with me on my day.

“Razan was great with our pets! She has a very calm and welcoming energy and even our kids commented on how little our (very reactive) dog was phased by her meet & greet visit. Razan provided lots of updates, pics and videos. She is a wonderful sitter!”

“Catherine was INCREDIBLE! She took care of our needy labradoodle and high maintenance cat so well while we were out of town. She sent us daily updates and made us feel so comfortable leaving our animals babies with her. It was easy to see she loved them like her own!”
