“Cannot say enough great things! Millie was taken excellent care of and enjoyed being there. I receive many pictures and videos and was comfortable my pup was in good hands, I will definitely be booking with Gabrielle again!”


“Allison & Ryan have been the best experience I’ve had with Rover!! I boarded my dog with them over Christmas, and they treated him like one of their own — even got him a personalized bone! (: Allison was very communicative and easy to work with. I cannot recommend them enough!”


“Kelsey is awesome. She agreed to take care of my Arrow last minute and has been great. He has been pampered all week. I would highly recommend her”


“I had such a great experience with Lauren and Joseph, they went above and beyond my expectations. I decided to book last minute and they were more than willing to help. I was nervous at first leaving Lucy with strangers cause he’s never stayed overnight anywhere with someone he didn’t know. Lauren sent me a couple photos 30 minutes after I left showing that Lucy was fitting right in, with then having a pool cause Lucy loves to swim. That was the trick to making him comfortable right away. Thanks so much again”



“Kayla took great care of Leroy! She was very professional and organized and met us at the front door for drop off and pick up. She told us Leroy and her dog played a lot together! She sent us 2 updates with pictures during our time away which was great. Leroy came home relaxed and tired! Thanks Kayla!”


About: I have experience with a variety of dog breeds and ages as well as cats and other pets. I was a professional dog walker/cat sitter in Chicago and I had a farm in Indiana with lots of different types of animals. Right now my schedule is very flexible. I am away some weekends and holidays but will let you know about those with plenty of notice. I have a five year old goldendoodle named Claude. Claude is a high energy dog who exercises me every day. I've also had best friend beagles (Dobbs and Darla), a King Charles cavalier spaniel (Milo), labs (Pudge and Buddy), and fostered a schnauzer (Mrs. Beasley). We have had cats (Toulouse and Mr. Munster). I also had chickens, ducks, turkeys and rabbits when I lived on a farm. My availability is very good; I don’t work outside my home. I’m happy to have a long term set schedule or provide the occasional service you may need. Your pet would not meet my goldendoodle Claude unless you want your dog to have socialization opportunities; if that is the case, I can walk Claude along with your dog.

“Juleeana was terrific! She was quick to respond and kept me updated with messages and photos throughout our pups stay. We will definitely be using her for dog boarding again!”


About: I’ve grown up having pets of all kinds, from reptiles to dogs to horses. I aspired to be a veterinarian when I was younger but made the decision for my family to become a stay at home mother. I currently have 3 German Shepherds and 3 cats. I’m home all hours of the day minus occasional errands. I’ve watched/boarded dogs of all shapes and sizes for family and friends many times. I’ve been responsible for dogs that need daily medications and or special diets without issue many times. I’ve raised and trained every dog I’ve ever owned myself and many of my friends and family come to me for help or questions with training and grooming. I truly enjoy working with dogs of all shapes and sizes! My families’ home rests on 2 1/2 acres, fenced all the way around with plenty of room for your best friend to run and play and enjoy their stay with me. I am currently a stay at home mom and am home all hours of the day. I’m only gone when I have errands to run or appointments/sports for my children. I have 3 German Shepherds that are indoor/outdoor and are typically friendly with other dogs. If your dog isn’t good with others, no problem, I can alternate time inside and time outside for everyone! My entire property is fenced off and secure. My fence is roughly 5ft tall. If your furry friend is an escape artist, no worries, I have no problem with leashing and walking them throughout the day. I also have 3 cats, 1 that is indoors only and 2 that enjoy going in and out of the house. If cats are a problem for your dog, I’m comfortable with and experienced with keeping them separated. I do prefer to have dogs crated at bedtime to prevent nighttime accidents and keep everyone safe and comfortable.

“Veronica helped us when our plans changed last minute before and during our trip. She was great to work with and we highly recommend her.”


“Gabriel was amazing and we could tell Bella had a great time! We was wonderful to communicate with and even sent pics of Bella while we were gone! We will continue to have Gabriel take care of our baby for sure! ♥️”


“Great lady with daily updates and pics! Thanks for the great service Savannah.”

About: I have special needs pets at home that require require extra skills as well as patience. I have taken care of dogs, cats, fish, rabbits, and hamsters. I am also a certified veterinary technician, I cannot prescribe medicine or diagnose any conditions in your pet but I have an abundance of skills to make sure your pet is properly cared for in my presence. I also work during the day so care will be before work, during my lunch, and when I get off of work. I am willing to take care of any dog unless they are for some reason aggressive towards me, but I am still willing to meet them and try to become their friend. I am also willing to care for any feline. I am an animal lover and always have been and I will treat your furry kiddos as I would want all of mine treated ❤

“Heather took excellent care of my puppy while we were out of town. He even got an upset stomach and she contacted me to see if she could feed him a special diet to try and help, which I really appreciated. Would definitely use Heather again.”


About: Hi! My name is Allie! My life revolves around my two border collies. We are constantly off finding adventures...hiking down new trails, swimming in lakes, herding sheep! Of course, we love an inside, sit on the couch type of day, as well. Whichever kind of day your pet needs, I would love the opportunity to care for them. I attended three years of veterinary technician school and have worked in several hospitals and shelter settings. From all those experiences, I learned how to interact with different personalities and treat medical emergencies. I am now in a different field that allows me to work from home the majority of the time. Therefore, I will be available to spend all day with your pets! I have also had horses my whole life and grew up working on ranches. If you have a hobby farm or other animals that need to be cared for, I am happy to do that as well! Feel free to message me with any questions you may have. I can't wait to meet you and your furry ones! I work from home most days. If I am called away, then it is for a couple hours at a time. My goal is to never leave your pup alone for more than a couple of hours. In that time, they can either be crated or have full access to our guest room for all their napping needs. :) I have a very large, fully fenced in backyard to play in. I have two border collies that have never met a stranger. Depending on your dogs needs, we will take the proper steps to ensure every one is safe and happy for the entirety of their stay.

About: Hi there! My name is Morgan, and I’m a dedicated pet parent to two lovable doodles. Caring for animals isn’t just what I do—it’s who I am! I understand how much your furry friends mean to you, and I’m here to provide them with the love, attention, and care they deserve while you’re away. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just making sure they’re happy and safe, I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own. With years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, you can trust that your pets are in good hands. Let’s make their tails wag together! Pet care seamlessly fits into my daily routine, especially since I work from home. My two doodles are my constant companions, and their needs naturally shape my day. From outdoor playtime to meal times, enrichment activities, and cuddle breaks, I’ve built a lifestyle that ensures they’re happy, active, and well-cared for. Working from home allows me to be attentive and consistent, providing plenty of time for fun and affection. Pet care isn’t just part of my schedule—it’s a fulfilling part of my everyday life! In my home, I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where pets can feel at ease and cared for like family. I ensure they have plenty of attention, playtime, and relaxation in a stress-free atmosphere. Whether it’s feeding, monitoring their behavior, or engaging in activities to keep them happy and healthy, I focus on their individual needs and routines.

About: I’ve been taking care of friends/family animals when they go out of town. I make sure that all the needs are met(potty/walks/playtime/cuddles). I’ve owned dogs and cats all my life. I work a 9-5 so I am available in the morning and the evening for overnight/daytime care. I also understand the importance of animal care. I make sure they are fed, walked, and are given play time. I enjoy hanging out with animals more than humans most of the time.

Carly S.
“Carly and her daughter used to co-sit my late cat Freebird (2010-2020, R.I.P.) for about three years. Freebird didn't have a lot of contact with people, but she took an instant liking to Carly, which told me right away that she is a natural with pets. I could trust her to be in my home while I was away. Freebird needed a little extra care in her last few months, and Carly handled that with sensitivity. Her dog Claude is a lovable goofball who's obviously crazy about her, so I know she would do well with both dogs and cats. I would definitely recommend her.”

Allie M.
“Allie is incredibly professional and trustworthy. I trust her completely with the care of my dogs and I have an extra sense of peace because of her veterinarian technician background.

Morgan M.
“You can trust Morgan with your pup! She loves nothing more than giving her dog, Bear, all the love she has. She’ll treat your pet the same. Morgan will ensure there’s a healthy mix of both energy and relaxation time. Whatever your dog likes, be it long walks or long naps, cuddles or alone time, Morgan can handle it. Morgan will be a calming force with your pet. Morgan walks my dog, Clementine, when I have long days at work or need to get to the gym or grocery store. She also cares for her when I’m traveling. She will answer any questions you have, ensuring you feel comfortable throughout the process. Communication is everything when trusting someone with your dog, and Morgan takes that as seriously as you do. I fully trust Morgan with my pet, and so should you!”
