“We had a wonderful experience when Steve watched our dog at our house for the weekend. His communication style kept us at ease, and we could tell from the pics he sent that our dog enjoyed himself very much. We have a very energetic Vizsla, so Steve was sure to give him lots of exercise and playtime. He takes good care of the home too. A top notch sitter who goes above and beyond.”

“Mary stayed with our boys for two nights. When we returned, the boys were safe and happy, and the house was clean. We truly appreciate your help. We’ll definitely reach out again in the future.”

“Brady was fantastic. He communicated with us throughout our entire trip letting us know how Holly was doing and making she we knew she was happy and well cared for. He took care of and respected our home. We would not hesitate to have him back!”

About: I love being with dogs! I love to run, walk, and just hang with dogs. I make sure to always have the time and energy to put your pets first! I am currently a part time college student and work part time, so I have plenty of time to give your pet the best of care!! I make sure to keep the environment clean and safe for all animals! I treat everything with respect and care as if it’s my own
“Chelsea is amazing! She took such great care of our Lucy and put our minds at ease. Last time we left our girl she had bad separation anxiety and this time with Chelsea when we got home she didn’t even act like she missed us. Chelsea was great sent us updates and pictures multiple times a day. Lucy loved her! We are so thankful we found Chelsea and highly recommend her!!”

“Michaela was amazing! She was able to help us out with our 2 German Shepherds on pretty last minute notice, and made sure to make time to have a meet and greet before hand. We were nervous to leave our dogs, especially our puppy who is only 5 months, but Michaela took such great care of them. She made sure to send us a lot of pictures and updates throughout the day, and was very quick to respond. We came home to a clean house & happy pups! We would 100% use Michaela again.”

About: I have loved dogs since adopting my rescue dog when I was a child. Ever since then I have learned a lot about being a pet owner! I can walk, bathe, play with, feed, and love on your sweet fur babies! I am also able to administer medicine if needed & I am open to learning any special care your pet may need! I was previously a veterinary assistant for 2 years, and have a bachelors in Animal Science. I have taken care of many of my neighbors animals, including cats and dogs all sizes. I can change litter and love on cats as well! I am able to go on long walks and I love to be outside and active with pets. I also love fetch! I have a flexible schedule most days and reliable transportation every day. I can’t wait to meet your pups!! I work full time, but have flexible mornings Tuesday and Thursday, and shortened days Wednesday and Fridays. My weekends are typically open and I am happy to do overnight stays. I don’t accept pets in my home, due to living in an apartment. I am happy to come to your home where your fur baby already feels safe and comfortable!
“Heather did a fantastic job for our 2 dogs. She went above and beyond to ensure all their needs were met. From the normal needs to the extras like; cuddle times, ball playing and her excellent communication to us while away. Highly recommend.”
About: Hey there! My name is Emily and I am a recent grad who has moved back to the area. I have always been an animal lover, and during grad school, I was able to broaden my animal care experiences! I am a dog mom to a German Shepherd named Gemma. She is a rescue and dog-reactive (but loves all people!), so I have extensive experience with walking and handling reactive dogs! Rest assured, when I care for your pets, Gemma will NOT be present. I was an avid foster and volunteer while in grad school for organizations such as Big Paws of the Ozarks, Fayetteville Animal Services, and Best Friends Resource Center. We have had fosters of a variety of ages and breeds. Additionally, I spent most of my Saturdays at the local farmers market with an adoptable shelter pup working on socialization and leash skills with fellow volunteers. Lastly, before moving, I was also a part-time employee at a pet resort that offered daycare, boarding, and grooming services. Hereto, I was able to care for even more dogs (and even some cats!). I am passionate about animal care and would love to take care of your pets, whether it be for walks, check-ins, or house sitting. Please feel free to reach out with any questions. I am happy to chat :) I am currently located around the 19464/19343 area. Note: I am able to do check-in visits for cats and hang out for a bit, but cannot house sit because I am allergic. As a recent grad on the job market, I have a ton of free time to take care of your pets! Whether it be morning, midday, or evening walks or check-ins, I’m your gal! In your home, whether it be for a walk, check-in, or housesitting, I am happy to follow any rules that you have in mind! Since I am used to walking a reactive dog, I am extremely observant on walks for anything that might trigger a reaction.
About: A friend asked me to dog sit for a weekend, then turned into every summer for the past 5 years. I love meeting new furry friends. It is so enjoyable to get to them, gain their trust and learn their different personalities. Most importantly let their owners enjoy their vacation knowing their pups in good hands I currently work full time during the week. The weekends are my best time to do boardings, drops in and walks. Once i’m committed to your pup I focus on just them for the weekend. To try to limit any additional stress or anxiety from a change in their routine with a new friend I like to meet with the parents and the pets before boarding! It makes the pets more comfortable and allows me to hear what their routines. As well as, what they like, don’t like any triggers to be aware of. I have a fenced in back yard so lots of room to play!

About: I have 4 years of pet sitting experience, including drop ins and overnight stays! I have cared for dogs with anxiety and those with lots of energy! I’ve found I enjoy working with all types of animals because I love to get to know their personalities and spend time with them. I am currently a nursing student which shows my inherent need to help others, including furry friends. I will take care of your pets as well as I do my own! I am currently home from college and working a part-time job. I am available anytime to watch your animals either that is stop by or stay over! I provide services in clients’ homes, where I follow the provided care instructions. I will actively interact with the animals while keeping the place clean.

“This was the first time our two older golden retrievers had stayed with a pet sitter that was not either part of the family or a close friend. Lori handled them very well, even though one was quite stubborn for her. She texted me daily pics and was great to work with. Highly recommend!”

We are so thankful to have found Mackenzie! She took care of our dog in our home while we were away and kept us updated throughout the trip with how he was doing to ease our minds while away! We feel so fortunate to have found her and will definitely be using her again!!

Michaela is amazing! My poor pup had an unexpected tooth extraction, and I had to take her straight from the vet to Michaela. She handled everything and the vet notes, and Gizmo's tooth healed great. She also communicated her concerns to check in with me on whether her adjustment behavior was normal and it was. I am so happy to have a sitter in the same community. Gizmo gets stressed in unfamiliar environments, and needs a human or companion around to feel comfortable. Gizmo was def spoiled with pets while she was there. Michaela also helped work with my schedule when I need up getting back later than expected. Thank you so much for being great dog mom on short notice <3
