“Lauren was so great with our little Archie. He's shy about new situations and she did a great job with him. And it was especially nice of her to take him on late notice!”


“Jen & Rob took such great care of my dog for day care weekly. He always came home happy, healthy, and exhausted (thank god, he is a high energy Aussie and needed to expel that energy!). Thank you, Jen & Rob for being a safe place for me to bring my dog!”



“This was our first time using a service like this and we chose Karen because she had multiple returning clients. Well, she would have another if I’m ever back in the area. She seemed to do very well with our puppers and even met us at our destination(children’s museum) to pick Tata up. She was very understanding when we had to cut the day short due to toddler tantrums. She had a very quick response time and made this experience a positive one. Thanks Karen!!”


“Lisa was fantastic with our dog Millie!! She responded to a last minute request, and we could tell Millie was in good hands. She checked in multiple times and it was a great experience”



“Pamela is the absolute best!! She was flexible when something came up and I needed a sitter earlier than anticipated, and she was so gentle and welcoming to my puppy Fig. She sent photo updates and a video of her playing which made me feel right at ease. Would recommend her 10000 times over!!!”


“This is the second time we have booked with Cori and once again could not be more pleased. I have to give a special shoutout as we had to book last minute to attend a funeral out of town. Highly recommend her for our pups. She goes above and beyond.”

About: I've rescued and fostered many dogs & cats as well. When there is a need for help with an animal, I'm the person that everyone calls. I do check in visits for family and dog sit also. I've rescued birds, mice and chipmunks, my heart knows no bounds when it come to animals. I will treat your fur baby, like I treat my own. I am self employed and work from home so I give my pets all of my time. I do not crate my dogs however I have an extra large crate TV stand in case I needed to. My home is designed around animals to make life easy and functional. I own my home, its a ranch home. There is one step in front and 3 to go out the back door. If your dog doesn't do well with steps, i have that covered and i have dog ramps if needed. We have a half acre yard in a wooded residential area that is completely fenced in. We are outdoors all the time and when my pets go out, I'm out there with them. I would care for your dogs the same way when in my home. My cats and dogs, co exist together great and my dogs love other dogs! My dogs have lived with fosters and foster fails! Pets are allowed on the furniture but not on my bed. In the event they wanted to sleep with my dogs in my room that would just fine. We have plenty of room and dog crates if we needed to crate them also.

About: Hi! My name is Makenna! I work from home full-time and have a very active lifestyle! Since I WFH, I have flexibility to take your pet out mid-day for a quick walk or potty break. I do have a dog of my own so I am only able to take on clients who have a friendly dog! I work from home full-time and am available on the weekdays for mid-day walks and/ or potty breaks. I have more free time on the weekends for bookings. I aim to meet all your pets’ needs and create a fun, safe, and stress free environment for them. I am here to make sure you are worry free! I am able to host 1 additional dog who is friendly and enjoys being active!

About: When Covid started, I accidentally started my business by helping a couple people who adopted dogs outside of their care knowledge. Helping them with their working class dogs (pitbull, collie, and a GSP) and establish a better owner/pet relationship made me realize that this is the right move for my future. Since then I have started my own business as well as helping others with their new family member(s). No creature is too small or large for me. My smallest dog client is 3 pounds and the largest is 215. Aside from that I have expanded my practices with lizards, snakes, cats, and birds. Let me know if you have any questions in the meantime! I am home most of the day. I do part-time work in hospice as well as part-time classes; (I have a door bachelors degree already working towards a BSN). If you have a special needs animal, I am more than happy to comply with their schedule, I just need to know in advance as much as possible. I have a fenced in yard in the back (will have a fully fenced in yard by the end of August in the front). My dogs have a semi strict schedule of activities to keep them mentally/physically stimulated. I follow suit with everybody’s dog. Everybody eats in their own crate, is provided with soft bedding to sleep on in their own crate, but exercise thoroughly throughout the day.

“John was such a great host for Chewy and 3,he is a truly wonderful person, and very professional as a fur baby sitter. I wouldnt hesitate to seek out his services in the future. Thanks John and his beautiful family, we appreciate all!”

Would definitely recommend!”


About: You need to have the owners and pets Rover profile completed, with address of owner and veterinarian for Rover Insurance, and so on. That way I can make an informed quick decision about setting your fur baby/babies. I grew up on a farm in Indiana, sold the farm in 2013 and retired in 2019. I'm a dog whisperer, and have had many different breeds of dogs over the years. Large, Medium and small. My grand Dad was a horse and cattle trader and I grew up at his side on a 365 acre farm taking care of all kinds of farm animals which always included dogs that worked at protecting other farm animals from predators. Dogs where also used for hunting, so patients with our dogs and their training was crucial. One of our dogs even saved my Dads life when he had a chainsaw accident when he was out working the timber alone. I am retired and have plenty of time for your dogs and other pets. Dogs especially take a liking to me, they just can't help them selves, it's not their fault. I will provide care for your pets like they are my own children. I'm physically fit and will be able to play with, walk and bath your dog if needed.

About: I have over 20 years of experience caring for both cats and dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I’m comfortable with senior pet care and experienced with administering medications, including injections. I take pride in reading animal body language, knowing when they need space, and building trust at their pace. Whether it’s a nervous cat, an excitable puppy, or a gentle giant, I meet each animal with patience, calm energy, and genuine care. I work fully remote from home with an extremely flexible schedule, which allows me to provide consistent care throughout the day. Whether it’s regular walks, medication schedules, or just being a calming presence for pets who need companionship, I can adapt my routine to meet a wide range of needs. I treat all animals as I would my own fur babies, with love, attention and respect. In my home, pets are free to roam in a safe, puppy-proof environment, with baby gates used as needed for comfort or boundaries. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I take the time to understand each owner’s preference and routines, ensuring their pets feel secure and cared for just as they would be by their family/
