About: I’ve grown up around dogs and animals my entire life, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. From a young age, I helped watch and care for neighbors’ and friends’ pets, which taught me how meaningful—and rewarding—pet care truly is. Today, I’m a proud pet parent to three animals of my own, and I also have two young children, which has deepened my patience, attentiveness, and nurturing approach to caregiving. I believe in more than just meeting an animal’s basic needs—I strive to provide enrichment, comfort, and a happy, loving environment. I have hands-on experience with feeding, walking, general grooming, administering medications, cleaning litter boxes, and using positive reinforcement training. I treat every pet in my care as if they were my own, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m a stay at home mom so I’m very flexible with my schedule! My little man will be with me during any morning or day time visits so animals must be okay with children. I’m very attentive with my own animals. I make sure they don’t get into anything and pay close attention to their needs. In any circumstance I would provide the same level of care to someone else’s pet.

“Once again, Andrea was an amazing farm sitter! I have 100% confidence in her watching our animals, and love the daily pictures and updates. She went over and above to make sure they had what they wanted and needed. I don’t know that I could use anyone else after having her watch over our homestead. Thank you, Andrea!”

I’m also the daughter of a veterinarian, who has taught me the intricacies of animal care. I helped train my late dog Snowman from when he was a puppy and also helped take care of my late cats Beau, Belle and Sithao in their final days I currently have an open schedule so I’m available to look after your fur babies as much as possible. I’m also available to travel far from my home to take care of them I will take care of your fur babies in your home while also respecting the privacy of your home. I am available to travel far and wide

“Highly recommended! Kayla is completely in tune with our dogs needs. They were well taken care of and happy. She is considerate of our travel time and arrived early enough for us to go over last minute tips. She sent thoughtful updates to ease any concerns and cute photos of our spoiled fur babies. Great experience all around!”

About: Since I was 10, I've always loved watching and caring for dogs and other animals. I started by helping neighbors with their pets—feeding them, taking them for walks, and making sure they felt safe and happy while their owners were away. Over the years, I've learned to understand animals' moods and needs, whether they're playful, shy, or anxious. This experience has taught me patience, responsibility, and how to create a calm environment for pets. Because of this, I would be a great sitter—I know how to keep animals comfortable and cared for, making sure they get the attention and love they deserve when their owners can't be there. No matter the animal i’ll be there for them! I worked at a pet store for over a year which taught me a lot about any sort of animals and their health. Since I already have a puppy with my own schedule, i’m totally used to juggling pet care! I know how to fit feeding, walks, playtime, and rest into my day, so adding care for another pet would just be a bit of extra love and attention. My experience with my own pup means i’m great at keeping routines steady and making sure every animal feels cared for. It fits naturally into my schedule because im already a pro at managing a furry friend’s needs! Besides my pup, I balance that’s with a box turtle, two hedgehogs, three leopard geckos, two cats, and at my parents house I take care of their two dogs, and two fresh water fish tanks. I can take care of animals in lots of ways depending on what they need. Whether it’s walking them to make sure they get exercise and fresh air, house sitting so they have company and someone to watch over them, or just stopping by to check on them to feed, play, and give them attention, I’m ready to help. I understand how important it is to keep their routine consistent and make sure they feel safe and loved while their owners are away.

“Did a great job taking care of Luna (dog) and KB (rabbit) over the thanksgiving holidays. He was able to take Luna on a walk and get her out of the house which was perfect for her. Would re-book again in a heart beat for my next travel needs.”

Please note that any photos and updates will be sent between the hours of 9am -9pm. If you have any further questions that were not answered here, please feel free to reach out to us. Thanks for reading and we hope to meet you and your best friend! == SCHEDULE == Our family is are full time dog sitters (spouse, mother in-law) and Eric still works his full time job in the military typically 8am-2pm. We are committed to have a dog loving and caring life while balancing our "weekends". We are typically able to accommodate changes in your schedule/needs to adjust pick up and drop off times. Please let us know as soon as possible about any adjustments needed. == DURING YOUR PUPS STAY == Upon a dog's first arrival, we strictly monitor their interactions with any other dog to be aware of any dynamics we need to be concerned about. We do not hesitate to separate dogs into different play areas if anything seems off. Our property is fully fenced on all sides, and we have gates to keep even the best escape artist pups safe. Dogs have full access to our entire downstairs which open up to a well-maintained fenced in yard. == FEEDING == During feeding time, your dog will fed in their crate or a play pen area to prevent food aggression and upset stomachs caused by consuming foreign dog food of other pups. == SLEEPING == Crate-trained dogs will sleep in crates (please specify if your dog is used to a certain size, as we have a wide variety of sizes available. Dogs who are not crate trained will sleep in a pen. Special accommodations can be made for dogs who are not able to do either of those. == WALKS == While it is our goal to make sure each dog get proper exercise and socialization, we do not provide walks during boarding due to liability and risk factors involved with walks (dogs escaping from harness, eating something off the side walk, coming into contact with an unfriendly dog, etc). We do, however give them plenty of outdoor time with the other dogs or solo to socialize and play, which we find is ample exercise for the pups that stay with us.

“Jemma is wonderful. I felt great leaving Jemman with my two small senior dogs for a long weekend away. She stayed in my home and gave my girls love, treats and cuddled with them on the sofa. I would highly recommend her and already booked her for my next trip.”

“Jenna is an awesome sitter. She was very accommodating to our needs, we had to postpone our drop in times just an hour before scheduled time and also came an hour late to pick pepper up and she was totally cool with it. Also I got regular updates on what pepper was doing all day. I would totally recommend her!”

About: I have plenty of experience taking care of dogs from Chihuahua‘s to German shepherds and have been a proud cat Mama for 15+ years. I love spending time with cats and dogs and I really enjoy taking dogs on walks to stay active. I’m pretty much free anytime. I’m working on opening up my own solo cleaning business so I’m making sure to schedule any pet care Monday through Saturday pretty much anytime. I don’t often take care of pets in my home usually just overnight visits and as long as the pet is OK with climbing up the stairs because I live in the upstairs apartment of my parents house whenever there’s an overnight need normally I’ll go over to the owner’s home and stay there

“Was amazing with both my pups,they’re both very lively and energetic but she handled them very well. will definitely book again!”

Brooke R.

“Brittany is awesome and she is my new go to when I need my dog looked after. I recently moved to the area and have been looking for someone to look after my dog when I have to travel. She kept in constant communication with me; provided photos and videos daily; and even picked up an Easter gift for him.”

“Aliyah was great. We have a big old house with its quirks and lots of pets with even more quirks, and she took great care of everything! Pets were extremely happy and relaxed when we got home.”

I excel with dog all ages including puppies, elderly dogs, dogs with medical care or special needs, kittens, and farm animals of all ages. Our idyllic farm, abundant space, and love ensure optimal care for every creature great or small. I am a cancer survivor and decided to have a lifestyle change to do what we love to do most: Taking care of animals and moved from the city to the country. It was the best decision of our lives. Working with dogs / furry pets is not a job but passion for us. It’s very therapeutic for us to spend our days in the nature with the most beautiful creatures in the world. I just love what I do and take pride in how I feel and speak their language and understand their phycology. I work from home and there’s almost always someone is in the house. My house is dog proof for them to roam around all day which usually they follow us everywhere. Dog paradise retreat not a regular dog sitting. Animals are my passion. I work full-time for taking care of animals from home and caring for animals is my lifestyle. I provide all needs including medication, water, walks, and tender, love and care. Our property is a pet retreat. This is not a regular dog sitting place. I created safe fenced doggie parks on our horse ranch to provide the ultimate fun and comfort for pets to not to experience separation anxiety from their furry parents. Our house is pet/child proof. I am dedicated to give the best environment of love and joy to animals they deserve. This is a passion for me. Tidy Setup: Fenced areas for dogs to run.

She also captures their personalities in her great pictures!!”
