“Summer provided great care to our babies while we were gone. Her communication was great and overall care was more than we could ask. Thank you, summer!”
“She worked wonderfully with our brand new puppy and was more than happy to work around our schedules. Our puppy adores her and we could tell he had a lot of fun hanging out with her! She is a fantastic listener when it comes to any house rules you may have, and really tries to get to know the dog and the people. I highly recommend her for your next booking, you will not be disappointed!”
“Hannah responded quickly, and made last minute arrangements for watching my fur babies. She was kind and caring, administered medications, and spoiled my babies with love and affection. She also sent pictures which I greatly appreciated. I would highly recommend her as a pet sitter and overall nice young lady.”
“If I could give Teresa more stars I definitely would because she deserves 100! I have never left my babies with anyone outside of the family before so I was pretty nervous! She totally put me at ease. She went above and beyond for my babies and us! We have 2 pitbulls and she made best friends with them the second she met them! And thats not an easy task! I will definitely be using her the next trip we take! And I'll be spreading the word! Thanks so much Teresa, you have no idea how much we appreciate you!!”
“Samantha was a joy to work with. Very friendly and great with our animals. We will definitely be using her again as we felt so comfortable while we’re away.”
“We had a great experience with MaryAnne caring for our fur baby! She was very warm & friendly & we felt comfortable having her in our home. Communication was great & she even left our pup with homemade treats. We’ll definitely have her back when the need arises. Would definitely recommend her for all of your pet sitting needs!”
“Great communication and took great care of our pups. We have 3 pups that don’t always get along and need to be separated and Katie made sure to keep them safe and separated! We will definitely continue using Katie whenever we are out of town!”
“Nicole was communicative throughout her entire stay! She was great with all 3 of my dogs. I have a very energetic working dog that she managed well and made sure to take toys away from him before he completely destroyed them. Will book with her again!”
“Kellie was wonderful! Treats our three pups like they are her own! The love she shows them while we were gone was evident! Highly recommend her!”
“Angelee was seriously so amazing!! She knew I was feeling anxious leaving my babies, and she sent tons of pictures and was super communicative. Highly, highly recommend!”
“Very pleased with Caidyn! Will definitely book again.”
“Ashleigh came through for us when our friend had a family emergency and was unable to stay this weekend to watch our pups. It was short notice and she was still able to take the best care. We have her booked for a future stay as well! Couldn’t recommend her more - great communication, so good with the pups and left our place just as we did! ☺️ we also have dogs that don’t get along and have to be separated in our home and she did great with this!”
“Always takes great care of our house and dogs”
“The house was cleaner than I left! Very good communication as well!”
“We highly recommend Brianna. We have four dogs and two cats, and she exceeded our expectations. She was knowledgeable from the get-go when it came to different dog temperaments. She made sure medication was given for one of our pups that was injured the day before we left for vacation, and wasn’t scared to ask questions if she wasn’t sure about something. Leaving our home and pets in someone else’s care can be stressful, but I was at ease on vacation knowing she had everything under control. She kept in touch and gave daily updates and even shared photos and videos. We cannot thank her enough, and we appreciate her professionalism. I would give her 10 stars if that was an option!!! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!!!”

About: Hello! I’m Mariah, and I have a dog (Salem) and three cats, Wren, Luke and Dorian. I have a strong love/passion for animals. My animals are like my children! We go out on walks, go for car rides, play with toys, play in the backyard and snuggle! They love to play with other dogs and cats. They are very gentle. Wren, likes to hide, and come out for food and cuddles in the evenings. He gets along with other animals, it just takes him some time to warm up. Luke and Dorian are both very social and love to play! I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals. I grew up on a small farm. We had horses, goats, pigs, and chickens. We also had many dogs and cats that I cared for. I am a former Animal Control Officer and have worked for another pet-sitting company.

Additionally, I live on the same block as the Emergency Vet Clinic, which is about a 1 minute's drive. I am in the process of becoming Pet CPR and First Aid certified. For Drop in visits, dog walking I only service Springfield. I care for my babies throughout the day. In the mornings when we get up, they go outside and eat, and throughout the day around every 2 to 4 hours, I let them outside to go get some exercise. for about 30 minutes, they eat again around 5 PM.

About: I have been taking care of dogs since I can remember. I have gone through training with dogs and I pet sit for family members and neighbors! When I go home for school breaks I work at a dog daycare/boarding which I have been working for the past 3 years. Here I have learned more about dog’s health, how to properly bath and groom them and how to clip their nails. I am a college student so my weekly schedule will change each semester. This semester upcoming semester (Spring 2025) I am free before 12 on Mondays and Wednesdays, after 7 on Tuesday and Thursday, before 12:30 and after 3:15 on Fridays and anytime during the weekend. I am mostly looking to walk dogs which I have done a lot throughout the years. Depending on the time of year I know the best length of walks to keep them from overheating, freezing or just getting too exhausted. In terms of house visits I want to be with the dog anyway since I love them and always check in with them if they want some space.
“I wouldn’t have trusted anyone else to watch over my boys! Morgan was thorough, loving, and interactive with not only my two cats but my turtle too! She sent daily updates (sometimes even more than that!) with photos and videos. She made me feel more than okay to be away from home for so long and I am grateful for her amazing care!”

Maya C.
“Maya has helped me take care of my dog, Milo, on various occasions. She is so sweet and caring with Milo and has continued my leash training skills with him whenever she takes him on a walk. Maya has also given me tips she has learned from working at a dog daycare and boarding facility that has helped me keep Milo happy and healthy. Maya is the most responsible and kind person I know, especially when it comes to taking care of animals.”

She spent time taking them on walks (even in the rain), feeding them their two meals a day, and giving them lots of pets and love! We also asked her to stay at our house with them and she was a respectful house guest! I would recommend her to anyone who wants the best care for their pups!”
