“Alexander communicated well, as well as when our dog got hurt because being afraid of fireworks he offered a full refund to pay for the dog care, showing more worry about the puppy rather than being worried about being paid. Very respectable and good with Juno.”
“Very professional and prepared for my two kittens! She sent lots of updates and pictures throughout the day as well as had toys and pet care needs already there. I 100% would book with Ally again!”
“Sarah was incredible. She kept me up to date with my kitty and was so responsive and helpful at every moment. I never do reviews like this but Sarah absolutely wow’d me with how excellent and involved she was. I implore anyone with an animal to give her some business!”
“Arden had such a great time with Ashley and her active family. She kept me updated regularly, helped reinforce some of the things we are working on at home (he’s a 5-month-old puppy), and made sure he got plenty of exercise and time to just be a puppy. She also exposed him to new experiences, which I really appreciated at this stage. I’m definitely a protective dog mom, and I felt completely comfortable having her care for him. I will absolutely be using Ashley again in the future.”
“Hannah was great, super helpful, patient, friendly and easy to work with! She kept us updated and our pup was very happy and well taken care of. We’ll definitely use her services again. I highly recommend her!”

She went ABOVE AND BEYOND in caring for my babies! After picking my babies up and unpacking their bags, I noticed a small Thank You card with a coupon printed off for $5.00 off of my brand of dog food! How sweet is that!!!

“Haylee was absolutely wonderful with Chestnut! She was great to work with, communicated very well, and took excellent care of him while we were away. Chestnut is a senior dog and can be a little more high maintenance, but she took his care very seriously and followed all of the instructions we left perfectly. We could tell he was very comfortable with her and well cared for. We are so happy with our experience and will definitely be using Haley again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Emily did a great job with my 1year old kitten and 28yr old Quaker parrot. Neither one are friendly, and don’t like strangers but it only took 1 day for them to warm up to her. This is the happiest my pets have been when we have come home from a trip. We will definitely be using Emily for all our pet sitting needs in the future. Emily was meticulous, detail oriented, followed instructions to the letter and even brought her own survey for me to fill out with questions about my pets and routine I wouldn’t have even thought to mention. Cannot recommend her services enough❤️ Thanks so much Emily!”

“Sarah has been great! She took care of a total of four cats which belonged to me and my friend. She is very friendly with the cats, sent timely photos and videos (which was a relief), understood the needs of our pets and understands the traditional as well as modern cat appliances which was a plus. Had a truly amazing experience.”

“Alexander communicated well, as well as when our dog got hurt because being afraid of fireworks he offered a full refund to pay for the dog care, showing more worry about the puppy rather than being worried about being paid. Very respectable and good with Juno.”
“Very professional and prepared for my two kittens! She sent lots of updates and pictures throughout the day as well as had toys and pet care needs already there. I 100% would book with Ally again!”
“Sarah was incredible. She kept me up to date with my kitty and was so responsive and helpful at every moment. I never do reviews like this but Sarah absolutely wow’d me with how excellent and involved she was. I implore anyone with an animal to give her some business!”
“Arden had such a great time with Ashley and her active family. She kept me updated regularly, helped reinforce some of the things we are working on at home (he’s a 5-month-old puppy), and made sure he got plenty of exercise and time to just be a puppy. She also exposed him to new experiences, which I really appreciated at this stage. I’m definitely a protective dog mom, and I felt completely comfortable having her care for him. I will absolutely be using Ashley again in the future.”
“Hannah was great, super helpful, patient, friendly and easy to work with! She kept us updated and our pup was very happy and well taken care of. We’ll definitely use her services again. I highly recommend her!”
“Brandy did an amazing job with our 7 month cavapoo! During the 3 night stay, Brandy send updates, photos and videos of Nala! And as a bonus, Nala made a new friend, her dog Aqua! We will be boarding with Brandy on future travels!”
“She is amazing! Lots of detailed updates and pictures while we were away. He was very well taken care of and loved every minute of his stay! We will definitely be returning 😃”
About: As a lifelong animal lover, there is nothing I enjoy more than spending quality time with pets and ensuring they feel safe, loved, and completely at home while you’re away. I know how tough it can be to leave your fur babies behind, which is why my top priority is providing them with the highest level of attentiveness, structure, and affection—giving you total peace of mind. My schedule is pretty flexible so whenever you need me, I’m almost ALWAYS able to be there!!! Thank you for trusting me with your fur babies! I have a fenced in back yard, and also in one of the safest neighborhoods in fort smith!! Can’t wait to meet your fur baby!
About: I genuinely love all dogs - puppies, seniors, and everything in between. I bring patience, attentiveness, and a calm energy that helps dogs feel safe and cared for. Whether your pup needs playtime, cuddles, gentle walks, or just a cozy lap to nap on, I meet each dog where they are. I pay close attention to routines and behavior, and I’m happy to follow any special instructions for care, meds, or training needs. With me, your dog gets the love and respect they deserve. Pet care fits easily into my routine because I have a flexible schedule, especially during the summer. I’m available for consistent care, last-minute needs, and spending quality time with your pup throughout the day I don’t have a fenced backyard, but I make sure all potty breaks and outdoor time are on leash and supervised. I provide a calm, clean environment with lots of love, attention, and structure. Whether in my home or yours, I follow your pet’s routine closely and always prioritize their safety and comfort.
About: I am a certified animal lover- newly retired non-profit director who loves to care for animals and loves the outdoors! I will care for your loved ones as I care for my own! I'm very active and newly retired! I've wanted to work with animals all my life. I'd be happy to met your fur family and care for them as I do my own!

About: I have been blessed with fur babies my entire life, big and small, young and old love them all!! Yours will have the "run" of the house with Toby Im a retired stay at home dog mom. My big boy loves new fur friends and is a gentle giant even with small dogs too. I have a fenced yard or can leash walk if you prefer. I have outdoor cameras as well as in door to keep close eye on them.
“Zoe and her entire household were absolutely amazing! So much love and attention, Hyde probably thought he was in heaven! I will definitely look forward to leaving him with her again when the need arises.”
About: I have 5 years of dog handling experience, it’s not about just walking a dog or playing with a dog it’s knowing how to go about and do it properly. My life for the last 3 years has been this. I love it, I also understand that no 2 dogs are the same and every dog needs something different, I’m equipped to offer any care your fur baby may need. I also have tons of experience bathing and clipping nails. I’m very versatile in the dog world and I’ve worked with them all. I’d love to care for your pet(s). Thank you much for considering! I currently have a job in dog care but trying to give extra time to rover. Week days are good, things change from week to week but can make time for any pets, if this goes good I want this full time until it grows bigger! I have a fenced yard so I will play with your pups and give them attention! I have 4 dogs of my own whom are all pet friendly, if your pup is not that’s completely fine. I have areas so they will never have to meet. I will always give the attention to your pup if deciding to board in home!
