“Michael and Jackie were immediately so kind and loving with our babes. I had no worry in the world leaving them in their home for the weekend. Jackie sent pictures and even let our babes sleep in bed with her just as they do at home. Thank you so much! I’d rebook in a heartbeat?”


“We engaged Aaron and Jennifer to watch our two dogs while we were out of town on a business trip for four days. In the past we have had issues kenneling them as Luna is older and Jesse is extremely timid resulting in both going off of their feed and Jesse having severe dehydration issues. On the 1st day, Jesse needed his anxiety meds (without them, he paces endlessly), but after that, both settled into a routine and Jesse no longer needed his anxiety meds. Aaron and Jennifer did a fantastic job of caring for our two pups who both dealt very well with our absence due to the excellent care provided. Thanks Aaron and Jennifer, we will be contacting you in the future to watch our two guys as the need arises!”


“Lael is the perfect sitter. I know she took really good care of Rio and he had so much fun with her dogs. Will definitely use her again! Her place is absolutely beautiful and peaceful. Perfect place for dogs to roam.”


“Shelby is fantastic and we will definitely book her again when we need care! Our family has been under a ton of stress as we move homes. Our orginal plan fell through for moving our cats to our new house and Shelby helped us out on a same-day request to board them. This was a huge relief and gave us peace of mind. My cats were happy and had a great time socializing with her family.”


“Ashleigh was great with all aspects of our dog's stay. Great communication before and during the stay along with pictures of how our dog was doing. Lucy was comfortable with Ashleigh and her home, and we look forward to using her again!”


About: I love pets! My Aussie recently passed away and I've missed having animals around. I'd love to be your pets home away from home or their new favorite walker! I do work full time, but my schedule is flexible! I can leave when needed and can always step away to let your furry friend go potty or burn off some energy! I keep a very clean environment. No smoking, rarely have guests, and no children. I be sure to tailor my approach to each pet since they're all unique!

About: Hello! My name is Brooke and I have a precious English Springer Spaniel and had a beautiful Bernese Mountain Dog. I am a big dog lover and take my dog everywhere she can go with me! We love to hike, go biking, chase squirrels and the next door neighbors dog! I love spending time with animals, period, whether it’s playing with them or just taking them on a much needed walk! I also have some grooming experience, though completely self taught. I used to take care of my puppers hair from baths to hair cuts. I am not a professional groomer, but when it comes to baths I am not at worried about getting a little wet and soapy! I also have house sat/pet sat for various families over the years and am extremely flexible with whatever families need. I have house sat/puppy sat from just a couple nights to several months at a time. I offer services of walking, in-home visits, over-night stays and quite frankly am flexible with any other situations that may come up! Thanks for reading and I look forward to meeting you and your fur baby! I currently work full time and even though I love puppies, would prefer to watch dogs that have a well established routine and can be ok for sometime alone before I can come and walk them and play with them. This is part of my personal routine with my own puppy. At this time I do not have a fenced in yard at my own home, so talking my dog for a long walk on the trails near my house is a must! For families where I am watching not only their animal but their home, I like to work within their animals normal routine so as not to add any more stress to the owners or the animal.

“Linda is terrific! Her passion and experience is evident from the minute I met her. Her home is set up for the comfort of her dog's and is squeaky clean. My Beeps can be somewhat hesitant when put in an unfamiliar surrounding, especially when I am not with her. The many pictures Linda sent during the stay provided total assurance that Beeps was comfortable, enjoying her time with other dogs, and was being well loved. Linda is top notch at this and I would not hesitate to leave our pup with her again, should the need arise.”


About: I have pet sat many different animals over the years. Sugar gliders, bunny’s, dogs, cats. I even had be in charge once to give a very old cat its medicine using shots while caring for it. I once taught two dogs how to be comfortable walking with a leash while boarding them for two weeks. The owner was very happy that she could now take them on walks when I returned them. I have a big yard for any dogs to run around in and a house big enough for any pet. Im very aware and understanding that a new environment for your fur baby can be scary so I plan on making the stay as comfortable as I can for them. I am very attentive and able to pick up if a dog is anxious and have the experience of how help them feel safe and calm. I also understand leaving a pet with someone can be scary for the owner so I welcome meet and greets to help you feel more comfortable. I will also provide pictures and video as frequently as you want. I love all animals and will care for any pets as if they were my own. I do work a full-time job, but it is a night job where I go into work at 5 PM through 1:30 AM, so I am available all day for any pet care or walking until 5pm. I have weekends off so I’m available for boarding on the weekends. I have a large fenced in backyard good enough for any dog to run around in. I also have a pretty good sized sunroom in the backyard with overhead fan that I like to frequently relax in everyday and the sunroom screen door has a doggie door attached to it so any dog can hang out with me in there. I also have a large enough house for any pet.

“Rhianna was wonderful with my puppy! Bailey had a fun time playing with Rhianna’s sweet little pups! She kept me updated during the overnight stay! And even offered for me to FaceTime when I was missing my little pup! She is caring and loving toward her pups, and loved mine the same!”


About: What sets me apart is my genuine patience and experience with both puppies and senior pets. I’m skilled in gentle training, health monitoring, and providing extra comfort tailored to each pet’s unique needs.I was also a vet tech in CA As a college student, I plan pet care around my schedule feeding before/after classes, playtime between study sessions, and cleaning and errands on weekends or free days. I keep pets safe by creating a secure, calm space, earning their trust with patience and kindness, and making sure their environment feels comfortable and loving.

“Sami and Charles took amazing care of Dakota! I loved all the pictures and videos they shared of her while we were gone. Walks, playing with dogs and running around in their yard! I could tell she was having a wonderful time! Sami and Charles were so accommodating and easy to communicate with. If you are looking for a sitter 10/10 recommend! Thank you both!”


“Leigha does so good with Maverick and she keeps me posted on him during his stay. He’s so happy when he stays there and Leigha has a great yard for him to run and play with her dogs. We love Leigha and so happy she loves dogs so much!!”


About: Warm, playful, and experienced! I give extra care to small to medium dogs and puppies, offer long walks, meds, and all the snuggles they could want. I keep a pretty flexible schedule with my job, so pet care fits in easily. Walks, play, feeding—I prioritize each pup’s needs like they’re my own. I stick to your pet’s routine, make sure to keep them comfy and happy, and give them lots of attention—whether it’s at your home or mine! 💗

About: I have trained my German Shepard on my own very well. I go on 3-5 dog walks a day. I go over verbal and non verbal commands daily. It's is an all day thing right now since this is what I love. I walk my dog all the time, many times a day and we even go to the park or the river to swim. I can crate the dog if needed. I have a fenced yard where my dog likes to play with others. I am home all the time so I will be there always with your pet. And plenty of furniture for them to lay on as well as sleep all day if they want.

“Janaye took such amazing care of my two furrbabies! She was very communicative, and sent updates/photos at least once a day. It was such a relief to go on vacation and know that my dogs were so well loved by Janaye and her wonderful family! I highly recommend her, she’s amazing!”
