“Grayson went above and beyond! My dogs are my whole world and I felt so much relief that they were being well taken care of and given lots of love... I got lots of pictures and text updates.

About: I am passionate, I feel like dogs want to play, to go outside and want attention. I am that person that will fulfill that job. Let me be that person to help you. I will treat your dog with all the love, respect and care like it was my own. I’m currently working full time with flexible hours and my off days are usually week days to accommodate your pets needs and treat them with love. I have a fenced in yard and two friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed. I also have a kitten that I’ve raised from being a bottle baby so I am familiar with almost types of pets.


8. Kara T.

“As usual Kara took wonderful care of our Bogey! He can be an escape artist when he wants and did that (through no fault of Kara's) when the ladies who clean our house left a door open when loading their products and then again when the guys who cut our grass left the fence gate open; both times were on the same day! Kara was quick to share his shenanigans with me and I truly appreciated how professional she is and how seriously she wants to ensure Bogey is well taken care of!! I HIGHLY recommend her services for anyone who wants to feel secure that their furry babies are well taken care of!”


9. Faith M.

“Our fur babies are family and not pets! She was attentive to their needs and gave them all the love and care in our absence! Our new go-to dog sitter!!”


10. Jennifer S.


“We had a wonderful experience with Jennifer! She took great care of our fur babies, even through storms and fireworks. We will definitely ask her to take care of our pups again. We highly recommend Jennifer!”


11. Aleyah M.
About: I have a 2 year old pit and she is the best. Super energetic, loves to cuddle, loves people and other dogs, and is extremely smart. I am raising and training her myself. She knows all her basic commands like sit, stay, come, down, and heel. We have begun her off leash training! I also have experience with larger animals such as horses. I have worked with horses for about 6 years on and off. I am a student who is taking a few classes at a time who has a lot of time on her hands. I am able to do morning and afternoon visits and walks because my classes are in the evening. I will administer medicine if need be, feed, and fill water bowls for drop-in visits. On walks, they will be no more than 30 minutes.


12. Aurelia B.


“Wonderful! Everything went well, Coco appeared to be very happy with Aurelia every time we saw her spend time with her! Aurelia sent photo's while we were away. We were able to communicate when we wanted to, and Aurelia was quick to respond. We have planned another stay! Very Satisfied.”


13. Chayna J.

“Amazing!!!!”


14. Victoria T.


“I was nervous about leaving my dog Lola for the first time but she did great with Victoria! She ended up watching her in her home with her other pets to keep Lola company. She sent me lots of pictures and videos of Lola playing/resting and kept me updated throughout my trip. It seemed like she had fun and I came home to a happy pup!”


15. Savanna B.

“Savana was responsible in giving the medications on time even before I had time to check in about it. House was in perfect condition, would definitely recommend.”


16. Danielle B.

“Danielle was great and took very good care of our two pups while we were away for the long weekend. Gave updates and did everything we needed. She is a very caring and loving dog sitter!”


17. Linda S.

“Linda was wonderful! She took great care of all our pets, kept us very well informed, and was very gracious and friendly as well! Will definitely work with her again”


18. Tracey B.
“I have known Tracey for a very long time. You couldn't ask for a better person. She is very responsible, professional and kind person. She treats her own animals like they are her children. She's always had a soft spot for animals for as long as I have known her.”


19. Jessica S.
About: I’ve had dogs all of my life, since I can remember. I have potty trained puppies and taught them tricks. I have experience with senior dogs and special needs as well. I also used to have a hamster, a rat, and hedgehog. Currently I own one dog and a saltwater fish tank. I have plenty of experience with cats as well. I’m pretty much a sucker for any animal. They all have my heart. I typically have plenty of time to care for your pet and I’m usually always available. I also have open availability on weekends and holidays as well. My schedule is flexible. I treat all animals as if they are my own. I will do what it takes to make sure that your pet is comfortable and enjoy their time that I care for them:)


20. Kristy R.
“Kristy took in our pups and treated them like our own. She is very experienced and her pack skills are impressive! I think my pups like her more than me. Won't use anyone else!”
