“Morty had a great time with Kyle and Lyndzie! They had great communication and shared many pictures with me while I was away keeping my mind at ease. Would recommend!”
About: Hello, Me and my husband love animals and are looking to give them all the love while you are away. I have been watching pets on and off for over 15 years and my husband has helped ever since we’ve been together. We would love to add your family of pets to the list. Please contact me if you are leaving town and need a reliable sitter for your pet(s). They will be given the proper care that you would provide them yourself! Why I love dog sitting I have been a dog lover my whole life. I have always grown up around dogs and would not of had it any other way. I have a Beagle that I rescued over 11 years ago named Ernie. He changed my whole perspective on rescued dogs. I found him and two other Beagles one day. The other two found homes right away, but he was injured. I took him in and never looked back. I also took in a dog on a camping trip that was not being treated properly by its owners. After a few tries, I was able to find him the perfect forever home! I hope to provide this service for other strays in the future! My experience administering medication I am perfectly comfortable administering medication. I do this daily for my senior dog. My husband and I will be sharing the responsibility for caring for you pet(s). We are expecting our first child in June and will both be off for several months. This allows us to stop in and check on your pet(s) several times a day! We will make sure your dog gets all the attention they could want when we stop in to care for them. Will do walks and outside time as much as you would like!

“Hope was great with my girls. I had just recently moved to the area and found myself in need of a sitter immediately. I was very nervous but luckily my girls had a great time. Thanks for keeping them safe and sound while I was away!”
“Missy and her husband were so warm and welcoming with Kaos. They sent lots of pictures and even got him a Christmas gift since he was there over the holiday. You can feel the love they have for their own pets and they welcomed Kaos into their pack and treated him as one of their own.”

Ashley W.
“Ashley has been our dog sitter for over 6 years. She started dog sitting when she was in high school for our two Yorkies, Ruby & Gidget. Ashley has since graduated from college yet still finds the time to dog sit when needed. She keeps to our schedule for the dogs; feeds them, give them time outside to do what dogs do and gives them time to run/play/bark. We have utilized Ashley's dog sitting for a day, for weekends, for extended weekends, and vacations. She is amazing, I no longer worry about "the girls" when we're gone and the best part--Ruby & Gidget get to stay in their own surroundings! No kennels or new dogs for them to figure out. That aspect is so very important to us since Gidget was a former Puppy Mill Momma so she is very skittish of so many things. Ashley has been great with Gidget . I have complete trust in Ashley, so no worries about the "girls" or our home. She is the most industrious young woman I know she's been a blessing to us and our dogs!”
