“I like bringing Sidekick here because I can tell she has a great time. She gets plenty of time to play outdoors and plenty of care and attention from Alyssa and her family. Coordinating drop off/pick up is easy too.”


“Mariah offers an outstanding space for your beloved pets to stay. I can tell she provided our two dogs with genuine love and care during their week long stay. If you're looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter, look no further. I am so very happy we found her! Dr. Stephen Dunnivant”


“Couldn’t have ask for anybody better to take care of our pup I love the way she sends the pictures. Let me know how Piper was doing. The whole time took very good care of her. Recommend her for sure for anyone looking for a sitter piper absolutely love the whole family 😁”



“Cindy did a great job from start to finish. We hit it off from the first home visit and I could tell she was an animal lover. Gertie had no separation anxiety when I left her and I had a great vacation knowing she was in good hands. Lots of pictures and communication kept us in the loop while we were gone. I Highly recommend unless you choose the same week we need her!”

About: I’ve pretty much been taking care of dogs & cats my entire life! I grew up with animals and have always been very passionate about my love for them! I’ve taken care of dogs on special diets, dogs with health conditions, young dogs, old dogs! I don’t discriminate against the breed, I love them all! I’m a currently a student, I’m taking classes online. My schedule is pretty much free to care for you pups! I’m very flexible, and looking forward to meeting your pups! I treat your pup as if they were mine! I am very loving, very playful, yet know when to be stern. I love dogs with my entire heart. I am very respectful to your house rules, as far as your home goes and your furbabies!

“I always know that Dexter and Charlie will be well cared for while I’m away and treated just like family. They love playing with and sleeping with the other dogs and are always happy and tired by the time I pick them up. I receive wonderful updates every day, including pictures and videos which show my babies having the time of their lives!”


“Merlin had a great time and looked very happy in all the pictures. Thank you very much and will look again for you to keep him when I go out of town.”


About: I have taken care of dogs for over 20 years. I have a Pembroke Welsh corgi named Rascal that I've trained and raised since he was two months old. My other dogs have been a Golden Retriever and an English Springer Spaniel mix. Your fur baby will have lots of room to roam, lots of play time and lots of love. I also welcome a meet and greet before you make any decisions. I work at home so I am more than able to make sure your pet is taken care of and gets his or her exercise. I have a front and back yard but my mother lives close by and has 7 acres. I would always be with your dog to ensure his or her safety. I have an 12 year old corgi that sleeps in side and of course, your fur baby would sleep inside as well. I make sure that they are fed on their schedule and taken out as much as needed. They will also have plenty of playtime.

About: I've had and loved dogs since I was 8 years old. We've had puppies, small dogs, large, and senior dogs. We have a large fenced in yard, two dogs of our own, and two kids who absolutely love animals. Working from home allows us to be home during the weekday to care for our pups. They are able to spend lots of time outside and get consistent attention and interaction. We have a larged fenced yard as well as two friendly dogs. We do crate our dogs as well as any visiting dogs overnight or when we leave the house.

“My pups loved staying with Jenn for the weekend! She was super accommodating with our schedule and gave me updates everyday! Will definitely book again!”

“Sarah is a great sitter! Gives periodic updates on how my pup was doing. I will high”


“Wonderful experience with Sofia! Bella had a wonderful time and loved her stay! Especially loved the fenced in spacious backyard setup - will definitely be back! 💕”


About: Hi, I would love to watch your dog while you are away! I have always wanted a job working with animals...and I think this is a perfect fit for me. I will treat your pet like family, exactly like I do for my dog and cats! I have a ten year old lab mix named Max and three cats. Max is very friendly and loves other dogs. I have many years experience with different breeds of dogs, dogs with anxiety, and elderly pups. I have a fenced in yard that my dog enjoys, and I also take him for walks. I'm ready to give your dogs my full attention and love! ❤❤ I am currently working part-time so I will have plenty of time for your pet! I'm available for boarding, dog walking, and drop in visits. My partner (Autumn) does work full time in retail so her schedule does fluctuate but she is available for dog walking and drop in visits before or after her shifts. She also helps out a lot when we have pups staying with us. She is also handles most of the scheduling. She is the more organized of the two of us 😅. If you have any questions about anything regarding your pets care just let us know. I have a fenced in yard and animals to keep your baby company. My partner is an animal lover also, so we will both give your pet lots of love. We also work slightly different schedules throughout the week, so your baby won’t be left alone or if they are it won’t be for long. We also have a separate room for the cats that is separated by a baby gate that we use to separate guests if we have to step out for any reason. That way everyone stays safe and supervised. We also try to send lots of pictures. When we go away I know how much we miss our babies so I always try to keep that in mind and send updates and pictures.

“McKenzie and Carson were so nice and accommodating for our sweet pup! Very friendly and also very attentive to our dog’s overall health! We took a last minute quick trip and they were willing to be flexible with our fluid schedule! I hope they will have us again if we need care when headed their direction!”


About: I am not just a sitter. I am someone who treats every animal in my care like family with experience across a wide range of pets. I bring a calm, compassionate presence and a sharp eye for their physical and emotional needs whether it’s feeding on a strict schedule administering medication with care or cleaning up with patient and attention to hygiene I make sure every detail is handled with love and professionalism. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet and someone else’s hands that’s why I go the extra mile not just walking feeding and cleaning up but also making sure your pet gets the affection playtime and compassionate ship. They need to thrive to me. This isn’t just a job. It’s a responsibility. I take the heart I care for every animal like they are my own and I will make sure that they feel loved and safe. I structure my entire day around pet care with a flexible. Seven day schedule. I can adapt to each pets needs whether that means early morning walks midday visits or overnight days. My constant availability means I’m always ready to help with last-minute bookings or ongoing care. I treat each pet like my own and make sure they get the attention exercising comfort that they deserve. In my home, I create a calm, pet friendly environment with secure areas for rest, play and feeding and make sure all hazards are removed like small objects, loose wires or open doors and provide plenty of freshwater, clean bedding and safe toys. I’m monitor our pets closely, especially during first time stays to help them feel comfortable and adjust to a new setting if pets have special routines or needs I stick to them closely so they feel at home in a client’s home. I respect their space and fall instructions carefully. This includes feeding routines, medication schedules, crate training, or other special requests I always double check that doors are locked. Gates are secure and the pen has access to water and comfort. I also keep clients updated with messages and photos so they feel confident and connected while they are away and both settings, I treat each pet with the same love and attention I’d give my own. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, relaxed and cared for no matter where they are

“I didn’t know what to expect as this was my 1st boarding of a pet, but Shelley was very upbeat and patient and communicated promptly with me prior to my scheduled drop off day. My experience was hassle-free! The pictures and videos she sent me of my puppy with his new experiences and interactions with other pets, I was relieved. Upon pick up of Koda, everything went very smooth even though I did arrive sooner than I had expected from my trip. If you are looking to board your fur-baby, I highly recommend Shelley!”


“Madeline was amazing! She took excellent care of Coco and was so responsive! I highly recommend her and will be utilizing her for future stays!”


“Alexandria was very responsive to all the instructions of care for our needy dogs! She made sure to always ask if she didn’t understand anything to make sure she was fully aware of everything! During their stay with her, she gave me updates and pictures! She also was kind enough to do some grooming for our dogs! We appreciated her taking us on last minute, would use her services again and recommend her 100%!”
