“Jenna, did a fantastic job. Took a huge weight off my mind. The dogs loved her and she even brought them to the hospital to visit. And when I got home, the place was spotless!!!! Thanks Jenna”
About: I’ve had and been around dogs all my life, from free roaming farm dogs to the most spoiled Pomeranians. I’m the guy who has treats and a leash in his car just in case I see a loose dog running around or hear there’s one nearby. I’m the guy who will remember your dog’s name, but probably not yours. I’m the guy pet owners warn that their dog is anxious of people, only to watch their dog sense my immediate love for them. I work as a freelancer, so my availability is mostly wide open outside of some specific appointments and projects that will be noted in my profile. In your home, I will follow any patterns and schedules you request to maintain a consistent experience for your dog. I have three dogs in my home consisting of two puppies and one senior, so I will not be hosting any appointments here.
“Laila was awesome! I am VERY particular with who I would leave the care to for my Chesapeake Bay Retrievers... as all of us pet owners are. So often I pass on fun places to go because I don't want to kennel my dogs. I found Laila to be communicative to let me know how the dogs were doing; i.e. sending me pics and texts periodically. I came home to a neat house and exactly the way I left it and to happy content dogs. I honestly think the dogs missed her when they realized she was gone and "Mom" was home. I cannot recommend her enough... and I know that will probably increase her unavailability for me when I need her, but she gets a 5 star plus plus plus from me... and again I am super particular with who I let walk or watch my dogs. Thank you Laila!”
“Tina did an amazing job! Our dogs loved hanging out with her! It was the first time we had anyone stay overnight with them and she completely put our minds at ease . She’s reliable, trustworthy, very knowledgeable, and loves your animals like her own. She’s prompt (even started early), sent lots of photos, great communication, and she did excellent with our anxious gal. We’ll definitely be in touch, for future visits!”
“While I have been a Dog Vacay provider for a few years, this is the first time I have let a non-family member stay with my animals. Annie was fabulous. She sent me pictures of the dogs and communicated with me daily on how they were doing. She took them for daily walks and gave them lots of attention. I worry as one of my dogs has seizures and that our absence may cause sufficient stress to bring on a seizure. That did not happen so it made this experience with Annie even better. I would definitely recommend Annie and will use her again.”
About: My family has had dogs on and off since I was a child. I’ve also been dog sitting for friends and family over the past 5 years-in many capacities: day visits, overnight, single and multiple dogs, different age ranges, breeds and dog walking. I don’t have a lot of cat sitting experience but have friends/family who have cats. I work from home 2-3 days a week, so I’m available more flexible on those days. Weekends and weeknights, I’m a bit more flexible to care for pets overnight or provide drop-ins throughout the day. I have no pets in my house, so your pet(s), will get my full attention. I don’t have a fenced in back yard but am able to use lines if needed, I also have space to kennel your pet if needed. My house is a split level, so I have stairs to get to either floor of the house. My parents do have dogs (in a different household), so if you pets don’t get along with other dogs please let me know.
About: My family has always had a dog around since I was a little girl! So I’m comfortable giving all dogs, whether the breed, the best care! I’m currently a weekend package person so I’m home full time during the week for all your dog needs whether it’s daycare, walking or boarding! I have a fenced in yard and 2 dogs who love to play with other dogs so your fur baby will have company! Also have a 1.5 year old who loves all dogs so no dog will go without any pets or lovings!
About: I grew up on a farm and have always wanted to work with animals. I eventually went to school and received an Associate Degree in Veterinary Technology and got my Certified Veterinary Technician license. I have been working as a CVT for almost 10 years. I do work during the day, so I am able to take care of pets before and after work hours. When not working, pets are my main focus. Routine is important for pets. I like to follow the pet's daily routine as much as possible, therefore keeping any possible stress as low as possible.
About: Hi, you can call me Lolo. I am a big lover of dogs and had a small dog growing up. I have been walking dogs since the summer of 2021. I have experience with walking medium sized and smaller dogs, but I am open to any size and type of breeds. I even have experience watching cats and had birds growing up as a child. I am currently a stay at home mom which gives me more flexibility and choosing to do what I love the most, which is spending time with and taking of dogs! I am very responsible, attentive, and outgoing which are all some qualities I think are very important when it comes to taking care of dogs. I am looking forward to meeting you and your sweet dog(s)! I am a stay at home mom and have a lot of downtime to spend some time with your dogs. Pet care is a job for me and my schedule is very flexible! I have crate training experience. My neighborhood is very safe and I live in a house with a lot of trees and woods so the dogs can run around. There are not too many dogs around, so you won’t have to worry about other dogs!
“Amayia was wonderful. We were in Two Rivers for a family get together and had our two Golden Retrievers with us. We needed someone to stay with them while we went to dinner. We were very relieved to find someone like Amayia to take care of them”
About: I’ve always had a deep love for animals, and I’m comfortable caring for pets of all kinds—dogs, cats, and even the more unique critters! I have experience with animals of all ages, from playful puppies to senior pets who need a little extra TLC. As a proud pet parent to two Great Danes, I understand just how much our pets mean to us—they’re family. My top priorities are making sure your pets feel happy, safe, and comfortable while you're away, and I treat every animal with the same care and attention I give my own. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine—I’m a stay-at-home mom, and I work around my kids’ homeschooling schedule. That means I’m home throughout the day and night, which allows me to give your pets plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship. If your pet is staying with us for boarding, they’ll never be left alone—we’re always home, and your furry friend will be treated like part of the family. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday cuddles, or nighttime check-ins, I have the flexibility to meet your pet’s needs with love and consistency. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I provide a calm, secure environment where animals can relax and feel at home—whether I’m visiting your house or welcoming your pet into mine. I follow each pet’s unique routine and take time to understand their needs, behaviors, and preferences. I’m experienced with crates, medications, feeding routines, and even a little light training reinforcement if needed. In our home, your pet will be surrounded by love and never left alone—we’re always home, and your pet will get plenty of attention and care. I live with two gentle Great Danes and two calm, pet-friendly cats, all of whom are well-socialized and respectful of new guests. We keep our environment clean, peaceful, and low-stress to make every pet feel safe and welcome. I’m also happy to go the extra mile—whether that means watering your plants, bringing in packages, or keeping you updated with sweet photo messages. I truly care about your pets and your peace of mind.

We knew that our energetic little buddy would be getting treated with love, care, and patience and would be happy and relaxed when we returned. Highly recommended!”

Aryn V.
“Aryn has watched our golden several times over the last 7 months. And she has been so amazing to work with! From flexibility with dropping off and bringing our dog back to our home and drop the gear off, to truly making our dog a member of her family. We wouldn't choose anyone else to watch her. She is accommodating, friendly and most of all dependable with keeping our dog on a routine and trained. We have had her watch our dog for a day while having contractors over, all the way to a week at a time while we were on our honeymoon. And our dog loves her and is truly excited every time she sees her. If that doesn't show the level of care that Aryn has for animals, then I don't know what is.”

Her years of experience working as a vet tech gave me the confidence to know if anything happened, Katie would be able to help them. Shs was comfortable around our pets & our pets took nicely to her & accepted her easily. We would call her again to help us, unfortunately, she has moved out of our area.”
