“Theresa was fantastic with our pup and we would definitely highly recommend her. He had opportunities to play inside and outside and Theresa sent photos while we were away which were great to see. You can tell she loves her pet guests and treats them like family.”
“Mary did and excellent job of taking care of my dog Clyde. She exceeded my expectations. You can see her love for animals and the joy it brings her. She welcomed my dog into her home like he was her own. I can't thank her enough for taking such good care of Clyde. Mary now is my go to dog sitter. Thank you again!”

About: I've been a dog owner for 20 years. Over the last 10 years, friends, family and neighbors have entrusted me with taking care of their dogs. 2 years ago, I took on the venture of fostering dogs in my home. My experience with them has been with puppies through adult dogs. Special needs dogs are welcome too, as I have experience with dogs with seizure disorder and other chronic issues. During the time the foster dogs are in my care, I work to establish a routine, learn basic commands and household manners. I work from home Monday-Friday. My pets (and fosters) stay in my office with me when I working. I am able to care for your pets during my breaks, lunchtime and after hours. My weekends can be a bit more busy, but I can be flexible in working with your needs. I have a small fenced in yard for the dogs to stretch their legs, enjoy the outdoors, and of course relieve themselves. Indoors, I do have crates available if your dogs needs some alone, quiet time. My dogs have their own room to offer a safe space for them. The dogs are never left unattended to ensure they don't get into something they are not suppose to. If watching the dog in your home, I will follow any instructions that you give to ensure your dog's safety and happiness.
“I feel like we have found a diamond in the rough. Jacqueline, Kris and Bella are so kind and truly are dog lovers. We received updates with pictures during Piper's stay. Their fenced in yard was perfect for Piper to run and sniff. Cannot say enough positive remarks regarding the excellent care Piper received. We highly recommend Jacqueline's family for daycare or boarding, and will be boarding again in the future!”
“Great experience for a first-timer puppy parent. Brynn keep me updated with Grace's good and mischievous behavior. Brynn texted and answered text in very attentive manner. Me and my wife often take up to 8hr road trips to visit family, now Grace will never be left home alone again. "We found Brynn and her family".”
“Duke had a great time with Chris, Dan and their pups! Would definitely recommend and would schedule with them again while we are visiting my parents in Illinois.”
“Hanna did great with my dog! He had such a blast with her boxer, he came home completely exhausted! Would definitely recommend and would take my baby to her again in the future!”
About: I can do just about anything. I have experience with all ages of animals. I trained my own dog with basic commands. I am a very patient person and I will treat your furry baby the way I treat my own. I have a very energetic 2 year old, 40 pound, Belgian malinois/german Shepard that I rescued from our local shelter as a puppy. I walk/run him daily if not twice a day. Caring for dogs and cats is no inconvenience in my daily life. Our backyard is not fenced in, however I have a 50 ft leash available for use to allow dogs to have the freedom to roam and sniff. I can also take them out on a leash myself. For boarding we have an area for dogs to be alone to have downtime. Along with a large crate with a dog bed inside.

About: I'm an animal lover with a natural way with animals. Though I've only cared for roommates' pets in the past, I love to pay it forwards to everyone! In between jobs right now, I have open availability and am happy to be the last minute sitter you hope you never needed and are glad to have. Keeping them in a routine is important. I'm respectful of my clients' property and loving of their animals while also providing structure to them all
About: We have had a dog or dogs for over 20 years. My husband and I both grew up with dogs as well. Our two dogs have been with us since they were puppies and both of them attended three levels of dog training classes. I work part-time very early in the morning and we spend a lot of time at home because my kids are homeschooled. There is usually always someone at home. I will do as much as I can to accommodate the dog owner’s preference in care for their dog. We have two dogs that can play with your dog. If your dog needs to be in a crate I can accommodate that. Our dogs are not allowed on the couches and chairs but my children do let them sleep in their beds.
