“Ruby had the best time and was well taken care of during her 3 day stay with Barbara and Darryll! We got plenty of updates and it was so comforting knowing she was happy and safe so we could enjoy our vacation!”
“First time with Rover and Maurice & Penny. Our dog “Scotch” was happy when we left him and happy when I came back. Maurice & Penny have experience with dogs and it was a no brainier for them to take care of our food addict chocolate lab. Scotch will be back: watch your food 🤣”
“Donald is quite simple the most amazing dog caregiver you may ever have the chance to meet. He has taken care of my poodle Rosy multiple times, and I always know she is having a blast while learning how to be a better dog under his tutelage. He is generous with his attention and care, always friendly and full of grace and goodwill. Book with him and watch your pooch have a blast at Froggy Acres.”
About: I am an animal lover who grew up taking care of many different kinds of animals and owning my own dog at a young age. I enjoy teaching and training our dog as well as playing with him. He's a happy, people-loving companion! I work from home and home school all 4 of my kids so taking care of pets fits into my schedule very well. Daily feeding and walking are scheduled. I happily include our pet in our home with some boundaries such as staying off of the furniture as well as not eating food off of the table.
“We were so happy to find someone who is fear free certified & uses positive reinforcement and were thrilled when Maria let us know she was available to watch our 7 month old puppy on short notice. Our puppy had never been alone or away from us so we were very nervous but when we arrived at Maria’s home, we were put at ease when she let him approach her vs. coming over to greet him as he can be a bit shy at first. Our pup took to Maria fairly quickly and once we went inside, Maria introduced her dog Lalo. Lalo was very sweet and so patient with our pup who was extremely excited to have a friend to play with. We were worried our pup would have a hard time with us leaving but we were actually able to sneak out the door/leave while our pup played with Lalo! Our pup is a high energy breed and Maria made sure he got both physical and mental stimulation by bringing him on several walks and offering a Kong. He slept almost the whole 3 hour drive home! We received our first update from Maria shortly after we dropped off our pup and she continued to send frequent updates and texted back very quickly - again putting our worries at ease! We would absolutely recommend Maria and if we are ever in the area again, utilize her services!”
“My dog Russell stayed with Julia and she was flexible about the extending the stay. She sent me some lovely action shots of him enjoying himself. I feel confident that he is well taken care of there.”
About: I've always been around animals growing up. I've cared for all different kinds of livestock, cats, dogs, and small animals like bunnies and reptiles (no snakes or spiders though yet). And I love every minute of it. I have over 10 years of professional pet caring experience. I've house/pet sat for family members before. And local people in my town. I've also worked and still work in horse boarding barns, small family owned barns, and a local large animal sanctuary. I've even volunteered at my local animal hospital multiple times. I'm always willing to bend to the clients personal request when it comes to caring for their fur babies and homes. Right now I'm still in school until June 8th 2025. I have 3 jobs. One is seasonal and 2 are year around. So my schedule has a lot going on. Luckily my jobs are pretty flexible making things like house/pet sitting doable. I'm a very patient person. So when it comes to dealing with pets and tasks I take things one step at a time. My pets are well loved and know it. I have never gotten a complaint from any past or present client. I am more then willing to communicate different needs and come up with a plan to make your pets and you getting to know me a good and relieving experience. I'm also more then happy to give regular updates and send lots of pictures.
“Faye did an amazing job with our two anxious boys. She made them feel comfortable and made sure they got all the snuggles and outside time during our ski weekend. She sent adorable photos and was very communicative. We will be contacting Faye again when we visit next!”
“Kim is wonderful! My fiancé and I wanted to extend our trip an extra day, and Kim didn’t hesitate to take care of our girl longer than anticipated. We feel confident that our dog will not only be safe but also happy when staying with Kim, including lots of exercise and time outdoors! Don’t think twice about this option for your pet.”
“Max had a great time with Julia & Jason . . . he came home happy and tired! Beautiful surroundings and lots of hikes! Got updates & pix throughout his stay. Absolutely will use them again !!!”
“Nina was awesome! My dog Mattis had a great boarding experience. I felt 100% comfortable knowing that Nina was taking such good care of my boy. Not only would I recommend Nina to others but will be asking her to sit for Mattis again soon.”
“She was awesome with all of our dogs.”
About: Hello everyone! I have cared for many pets in the past with my most recent being my new puppy moose! He is an almost 9-month-old mini Aussie. With this, I’ve gained a ton of knowledge about training along with the dreaded potty training. Moose is potty trained and was fully potty trained at 5-months-old. I would love to be able to train other puppies/ dogs and have playmates for moose! I am sure your fur baby will be in the best care possible! I work part time which is usually not more than 2-4 hours a day! This leaves plenty of time for me to walk, train, and play with your pups! All pups will need to be in my care for boarding or daycare before 11 a.m. and picked up before 6 p.m. This schedule can be adjusted as I have a very flexible work schedule! I have a very large yard, along with a very playful pup to keep your pup busy! All dogs in my care will be created if I am not home to ensure they are safe. With this, all dogs will never be crated for more than 2 hours at a time. At your home, I will follow any rules you wish to ensure your pup's safety.
“Simba was super happy when we picked him up. Whitney kept us updated with photos all weekend and her daughter was adorable with our dog which made us very happy!”
About: I’ve been pet sitting for about 15 years now. Briefly owning my own pet sitting and dog walking company many years ago before having children. My family and I have been fostering dogs for just over a year now and have had the joy of finding 6 dogs their forever homes. Now being a stay at home mom with some spare time on my hands, I’m looking to get into pet sitting and dog walking again to share the love of animals with my kiddos! Flexible availability as I am home most days all day. Mid mornings and early afternoons are best for walks. Overnight care in our home is available any day and night! We have 10 acres off a private road with ample space to run and enjoy walks. We also have an entirely fenced in yard for the dogs to romp as they please!
About: My schedule is flexible so I'm able to spend time throughout the day with your fur baby. I'm active and happy to play fetch for hours! I like to take puppers for multiple walks and give lots of love and pets. The clients I sit for like the fact they can contact me last minute and I'm generally able to adjust my schedule to be available. My schedule changes from week to week but feel free to contact me to double check my availability no matter the season! I like when clients leave me detailed instructions on what their pets normal schedules are, that way there's less stress put on myself and on your fur friend! I'm able to work from home most days of the week, this allows me to be available for all pet needs - morning, lunch time, and after work walks are a part of my daily schedule when we have a dog to take care of. Lots of mental stimulation and training exercises throughout the day to keep them out of trouble helps too! I have a 9 year old cat in the house that tends to keep to herself in the bedroom when there's a dog around. Our home is on 5 acres of land with a big yard to do lots of sniffing around. I'm also located right on the rail trail for longer walks and adventures!
About: Having been a pet owner for all my life, I am familiar with all sizes and temperaments of dog and cat breeds. I also have experience caring for bunnies, birds and livestock. I’m recently retired so I’ll have plenty of time to spend with your pets. My house is available if you need boarding or I can come to you. When your dog is in my care they will not be off-leash while outdoors unless you have a safe space for them, such as a fenced-in yard. They will get pets and cuddles, treats and exercise. I will follow your written instructions for their care and require your cell number as well as access to your vet.

Keely G.
“Keely did in home pet sitting for my dog Ike for many years. She was trustworthy and responsible and Ike loved her. It always gave us comfortable knowing Keely was with Ike when we were away. In his senior years when Ike had health issues and required additional care and medicine, Keely always took the time to ensure that Ike and his needs were met, giving us peace of mind. Sadly we moved out of state, but if I could have taken Keely with me I would have. Ike adored her and we were lucky to have her in his and our lives.”
Brooke M.
“I am beyond lucky and grateful to have Brooke in my life. She’s the kind of person you can always count on—dependable, honest, and hardworking. She makes everyone around her feel at ease. Brooke’s love for animals shines in everything she does and she has even started fostering dogs in order to find them their perfect home. She’s patient, attentive, and incredibly thoughtful, always making sure that everyone (two-legged or four-legged) feels cared for and safe. I’ve seen firsthand how dedicated she is, not only to her friends and family but also to any task or responsibility she takes on. Whether it’s helping a friend in need or going the extra mile to make sure things are done right. I can’t think of anyone I’d trust more with my pets. She has such a calm and nurturing energy, and I know any pet in her care will feel just as lucky to have her as I do.”
