“Debora was amazing! She took care of our two dogs while we were away overnight and went above and beyond. She was attentive, reliable, and kept us updated every visit with photos and notes, which gave us peace of mind the entire time. You can tell she genuinely cares for the dogs she watches. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for dependable and caring pet care!”

“We had a great experience with Cory! My boys felt comfortable and at ease while we were on vacation, thanks to Cory. He’s very communicative, attentive and caring! I highly recommend him for any pet-sitting needs!”

About: I have 20+ years of pet experience with dogs, cats, horses, goats, pigs, chickens, and more. I am available for dog boarding in my home for multiple dogs. I am comfortable giving medications. I can make multiple visits to your home while you are gone. Let me know what your needs are and we can find a suitable accommodation for your pet. They will be loved like our own. I am a stay at home mom who homeschools my children. Most of our days are wide open and I can easily accommodate taking care of other pets. I will look after your pets like I do my own. I will make sure they always have the proper food and water and are never left unattended. I can meet a variety of needs for many different pets.
About: Animals have always been a part of my life and my family. Horses, dogs, cats, hamsters, ferrets, fish and more have all been part of our lives! Just looking to offer care for other families out there that want to have their pet cared for as if they were family ☺️ I work full time weekdays, but am home in the afternoons/evenings and all weekends. I’m open to hosting in my home or making visits to yours! I have one friendly dog Australian Shepard who loves play dates! We also have one cat in the home who is friendly as well ☺️

“April is very easy to get along with and gave excellent care to our cat Miss Pepper. April sent me pictures of our feline at each visit and informed me of package deliveries. Upon my request she checked the water taps drip to ensure the water doesn’t freeze. I highly recommend her.”

About: All my life my family has had dogs. I am well equipment to care for small dogs, large dogs, old calm dogs, and young playful puppies. I’m open to any and all dogs! I’m a college student with a part time job, so I’m mainly only available on weekends. My schedule can vary though so don’t be afraid to reach out and ask! I am very thorough with instructions, so any information you give me about your dog will be followed to a tee. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, letting your dogs out, cleaning up after them, and making sure they feel loved while you’re away!
“Hailey was amazing with our new rescue! He went out for her, ate (because he wouldn't eat before I left for work), played ball and had a great drop-in visit. Will absolutely hire her again and again.”

About: I have been around dogs my entire life and have been a proud dog owner since I was a young kid. I know exactly what it takes to keep a pup happy and healthy. In addition to raising my own dogs, I have extensive experience caring for others' pets. I regularly host family friends' dogs, have completed overnight house sittings (including 3+ night stays), and frequently manage dog walking schedules. Because my own dog at home prefers to be an 'only child,' I do not offer boarding at my house—meaning your dog gets 100% of my attention right in the comfort of their own familiar environment. (Please note: I do not care for cats due to allergies!). I am a recent college graduate spending my summer strictly focused on studying for my medical school entrance exams. Because my entire schedule consists of independent laptop study, I treat house sitting as my personal, quiet study retreat. Your dog will be my primary focus! I love using my study breaks to get outside, stretch my legs, and take your pup for long, refreshing walks. I am home for the vast majority of the day, making my schedule flexible and reliable. I know how important it is to feel secure leaving your home and pet in someone else's hands. I am clean, quiet, and extremely respectful of your space. While watching your pup, I follow their exact routine down to the letter to keep their stress levels low. I maintain an eagle-eye view on safety during walks, keeping dogs securely on-leash and away from unknown animals. Plus, I love sending regular photo and text updates so you have total peace of mind while you're away!
About: I’ve loved animals since a child. I have 2 decades of experience taking care of dogs. I love to give them affection and care for them. I’m currently working from home so I have lots of flexibility to care for pets. I am home nearly 90% of the time. Pets are friends! I have a large backyard where I have a temporary fence and enclosed play area for your pets. It is safe and the home is secure. My husband and I work together as we both enjoy working with animals.
