“Barbara is so good with our kitties! She’s great at giving pills and goes above and beyond to give updates and ensure our furbabies are well taken care of while we are out of town. I’m so grateful we found her!”
2. Abigail H.
“Abigail was wonderful with Jake! They took to each other right away. Abigail checked in twice a day with pictures and descriptions. She heroically checked on Jake twice on a day when we had hailstorm and a tornado touchdown only a mile away. Abigail is the GOAT!”

6. Jessie E.
About: I have had all kinds of animals and have been around even more. Your pet is your family and I will treat them as it. I can take on a few afterwork needs m-f, and mainly any full days worth of care could be on the weekend. I can be somewhat be flexible, but I do have a full time job. I make sure the pet(s) have attention, playtime, frequent potty breaks, and food/water depending on how they are. (If a dog needs scheduled feedings or if they can handle a full bowl all the time). You’ll get solid proof of poop/pee breaks when “walking”. You’ll get a gallery of photos at the end of “house sitting” stay of your lovely pups! If I’m just doing “drop ins” I’ll send potty time pics and let you know they are loved and taken care of.
7. Lily Q.
“Lily was a great sitter for my very hyper dog. I loved the picture and video updates and could tell she really spent time and gave Ivy lots of attention. I will absolutely book again and definitely recommend her:)”
8. Ashley F.
“Ashley has helped me many times with our girl Myla. Even when she was a hyper puppy, she was able to keep her under control and always understood that she was a little wild. I appreciate all of her help! With many pups of her own, she knows just how to handle all the pup personalities.”
9. Haley L.
About: I’ve had multiple pets for as long as I can remember. I currently have 3 dogs and 5 cats. My brother is a dog trainer so I’ve learned a bit from him. I’m currently in between jobs, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with and take care of your fur baby’s! I’m available any time, any day! I am willing to do whatever you need me to do to make you and your pet happy and comfortable! I promise to keep your pet safe and to follow all instructions given. :)

About: Neighbors friends and families have all relied on me to bath, walk, medicate their babies and I worked at a doggy daycare and boarding resort! I’m currently working between the vet clinic and grants farm live stock care! But my schedule has more room and I want to dedicate it to any and all animals I can! I have one dog well trained, free roam of the house, allowed on everything, potty trained and go out for his walk every day, and takes days off as he wants!
