About: I've had dogs in my life since I was young. The newest member of our family, Reeses, makes me smile every day and we're learning from each other so much, she just warms my heart. When I was a senior in H.S. I worked with a professional trainer, training German Shepherds. It was during this time I learned that I've got a great commanding voice that dogs want to listen to. In college I was the president of the animal rights club, and worked with animal shelters in the area. Next year I plan on taking some official training classes and starting my own dog training / sitting business. Until then I'd love to make some new furry friends and their people too. I work from home, so I'm able to take frequent breaks and spend time with our four legged friends. I start the morning off with a walk, spend lunch working on some training or going for a ride, and I'm home and ready to play right at five as soon as I turn my computer off. I'm free to take potty breaks throughout the day as needed as well. Dogs love a good routine, and I'm here to help make that happen. I want them to feel as comfortable as possible while you're away so you can come home to a stress free pup, and for you to feel comfortable knowing your loved one is being looked after by someone that cares and is there with them.

About: I have cared for many pets over the years. We decided its tine to open our home to all the pet lovers who need vacation help. I am currently available all day to care for your pets. I do not work outside the home. I have the tine for extra love. I have 5 cats and 2 dogs of my own. I have a large over 1/2 acre lot for outdoor activities. I do not have a fenc so pets will be leashed or allowed to roam based on owner insight.

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.

“Was great communication, super friendly, easy to talk to, sent multiple pictures, and the dogs seem to really enjoy their time there. Plan on using her again in the future if available”


“Katie and her family have been a true blessing for us and our pup, Stormy. The way they shower her with affection and take care of her needs is truly remarkable, making us feel grateful and relieved that she's in good hands. It's no wonder that we affectionately refer to them as Stormy's second family, as she has grown to love them as her own. Without hesitation, we highly recommend Katie to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter.”

About: I've been taking care/helping to take care of dogs since my earliest years. We've had everything from Miniature Dachshunds to Weimaraners to Greyhounds. My step-mom owns Courage Kennels (breeding and showing champion Rhodesian Ridgebacks) in Arizona, so I have some limited experience in training from being around that while growing up. I currently work during the days on Saturdays and Sundays, but during the week I work from home, so my schedule is very flexible. I get home Sunday evening, so I can generally do pet sitting and boarding from after 6pm Sunday until Friday evenings. I have an area in my backyard that is fenced with a 6ft chain link fence, so they have a safe area to run around outside on occasion. Otherwise, we mostly hang out in the house while I do my work-from-home job duties, or go on walks if the weather is nice enough for it.

I am in a safe neighborhood for walks.

About: I grew up on a farm. I was part of FFA (future farmers of America) and 4H growing up. I’ve cared for animals and their well being all my life. I currently work on a two week rotation. Meaning I’ll be in town for two weeks at a time, and out of town for two weeks. I’ll have weekdays from 8am to 5pm and weekends after 4pm. I have majority of the day to relax and exercise your puppies. I have a fenced in backyard and plenty of room for your pups to enjoy outside or if they are lazy butts; got a couch for them to relax on. I can also take your dogs on walks and or runs if that’s required for them.

About: I’ve grown up with animals my whole life, including dogs, turtles, fish, and birds. I've taken care of my own dogs, my parents dogs, my friends dogs, and my neighbors dogs since I was 15 years old. I’m highly detail-oriented & disciplined so I can follow instructions closely. I’m very patient so I can handle animals even on their bad days! And I have a big heart so I’ll provide the utmost care for your pet - no matter their size. I’m always on my phone so I’m easy to communicate with and will never leave you guessing. You’ll receive all the photos and updates your heart desires. I work full time for a local hospital system, so my availability will be mostly in the afternoons and on weekends. I am currently available Monday-Friday in the afternoon and all-day Saturday & Sunday. Holidays will vary. I have a very large yard with grass where they can play with my friendly 5 month old dog Luci. My house is very pet friendly. I have transportation so I have no problem coming to your house to take care of your doggies as well.

McKenzie T.
“Absolutely amazing! She has helped up with all of our animals from dogs and cats, to ferrets and a chinchilla! She always does well and has treated our animals the way we have asked her and even gone above and beyond and has driven out of her way to come see them and check on them. She is probably one of the best pet caretakers we have ever had.”
