“So great! First time boarding my dog so I was nervous, but Jaxx was in great hands. She sent me photos and updates while I was gone. My dog got along great with her pup and they got to play in a fenced in yard and everything! Would take him back there if I went on another trip for sure.”

“I can’t thank Asia enough for the amazing care she gave my dog. From the moment I dropped him off, I felt completely at ease. Rambo can be a bit much at first, but Asia went above and beyond to make him feel comfortable and at home. She kept me updated with daily photos and messages, showing Rambo relaxing, playing, and getting lots of love. It was clear he wasn’t just being watched—he was being cared for like family. She even noticed his food was getting low and made sure he was still fed, and took the extra time to keep up with his routine. When I picked Rambo up, he was calm, happy, and clearly well-loved. It honestly felt like he had been on a mini vacation of his own. I wouldn’t hesitate to trust her with him again with her family—they are reliable, and very kind. Highly recommend 10/10!”

“I had never gotten anyone to watch our dog, Bonni, before (other than family) & so I was a little worried, but she did great with Scout and her family! Scout let us come out to her place ahead of time so Bonni could meet her and see where she would stay. Overall, communication was great, she kept me updated on how Bonni was doing with pictures, and I would 100% feel comfortable having her watch Bonni again!”

“Madison & Isiaih have done great boarding my dog. They send pictures and videos of my dog’s activities and that gives me peace of mind knowing that my Louie is in good hands .”

Courtney helped me to not worry about Ruth or how things were going by sharing videos and keeping me updated on how she was getting along.”

“Thomas took care of our 10 month old pup who was in need of socialization for Labor Day weekend. He and his family have great energy and their house is full of love.

About: I have had all size dogs since I was 12. I love that they love you unconditionally. I enjoy walking my dogs, and I can't help but laugh when they get the zoomies. I always try to be patient when they are unsure or need to take medicine. I work full time, but I am available in the evenings and weekends. I am available to come to your house to take of your animals needs. Your animal can also come my house for the weekend if needed. Please schedule in advance. I prefer to do a meet and greet, since I also have two rambunctious kids. I have two small sociable dogs that are both fixed. They stay in the kennel when I am at work, but when my husband has a break he will let them out. I have a large backyard that that is fenced in, and my neighborhood has sidewalks to walk dogs. My household is also high energy, but also love snuggle time and belly rubs.
“Renee was awesome!! She took very good care of our two doggies while we were gone for vacation. She was quick to reply and we never had to worrry about our doggies and just truly ejoy our vacation”


“Lacy was fantastic!! She did a great job pet sitting our cat, sent lots of photos and updates, and left the home in perfect shape!! She gave me peace of mind knowing our cat was in good hands while we were out of state! We will definitely be using her again!”

“Ashleigh accepted my last-minute booking and was wonderful! She writes detailed visit notes and I received some cute photos of her little one playing with my cat, Penny. Will definitely keep Ashleigh in mind for future bookings ☺️”

“Having Becky drop in was a game changer for our kitties. They were much happier when we returned home after having dedicated attention and playtime every day. She also took great care of our chickens! We will definitely be rebooting if we decide to go out of town again.”


About: I’ve taken care of different types of cats with different types of personalities. Cats who are energetic, who are shy and quiet, or reserved and enjoy time to themselves. I understand that every cat has their own routine and level of comfort. I’ve taken care of kittens into adult age as well as old age. I have experience with feeding, litter box cleaning, play time and giving lots of attention and care.

“Mackenzie did a fantastic job taking care of my cats! She was always on time and sent me adorable pictures with every visit. One of my cats is very shy and scrambles under the bed when visitors show up, but she grew to trust Mackenzie over a few days. Aside from her ability to take care of pets, she's also a wonderful human being. When my flights got messed up and I had to return a day later than I anticipated, she was very understanding and willing to check on the cats that morning. Highly recommend booking Mackenzie!”

About: Hi! I’m Alena, a lifelong dog lover with hands-on experience caring for pups of all sizes, ages, and health needs. I grew up with a sweet, high-energy beagle and now care for two amazing senior dogs—a 14-year-old chihuahua and a 9-year-old Dutch shepherd with neurological issues. Both are blind, so I understand how to create a calm, safe, and loving environment for pets who need a little extra support. Whether your dog is a playful puppy or a slow-moving senior, I treat every pet like family—because that’s exactly what they are. I’m patient, attentive, and passionate about making dogs feel safe, seen, and loved. I’d be honored to care for your fur baby like they’re my own! Pet care is woven into my daily routine—I’m a full-time pet parent! Caring for my two senior dogs is a big part of my day, and I’ve built a lifestyle around making sure their needs are met with love and consistency. From morning feedings and potty breaks to medication, gentle walks, and cozy cuddle time, I’m used to being attentive and flexible. Because I’m home the majority of the time, I can give your pet consistent care and companionship throughout the day, just like I do for my own. When I’m caring for pets during walks or drop-in visits, my focus is always on making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved—just like I do with my own dogs. For walks, I pay close attention to the dog’s pace, energy level, and surroundings, making sure they get exercise without feeling overwhelmed—especially for seniors or dogs with special needs. I always use secure leashes and harnesses and steer clear of busy areas unless your dog enjoys them. During drop-ins, I follow your routine closely—whether that means feeding, giving meds, potty breaks, playtime, or just hanging out and keeping them company. I send photo updates so you can see how your pet is doing and know they’re in good hands. I treat every home with respect and every pet like family.

About: I've been a pet owner for 16 years, and I will treat your pup as I would my own - with lots of cuddles, treats and playtime.. I am patient and am able to work with your dog to make him or her feel comfortable. I love to work with seniors. I have had two geriatric dogs in the past and am familiar with the care for these more fragile pups. I work from home most days, but I am limited on time to drop-in. I can drop in before 8, at lunch, and/or after work to accommodate your needs. Ability to drop in before 5 are dependent on locations close to where I live. For boarding or drop-in visits to my home: I have a fully enclosed privacy fence and spacious back yard. I can crate as you wish - I have crates medium and large dogs, and you are welcome to bring your own kennel or beds. For Pet/housesitting services: The goal with pet care at a client's home is to maintain routine and consistency to ease any anxiety or confusion pets may feel without their fur-parents. Outside and play time are absolutes.

About: Everyone In my life has had a pet except for me. However, I just gravitate towards animals because thats what my heart allows. Ive dog-sitted for many people: my sister, my neighbor's, my grandmother and my god mother. I love playing with them, walking with them and the most fun part is feeding them. I do soon hope to become a pet owner. I feel like this would be a great job for me and even a great business venture If I can execute it. I am ambitious and always looking for new goals to accomplish. I am 22 years old and have dreams of becoming an entrepreneur someday. I believe this is a great place to start. I would do this fulltime and be 100 percent committed.
About: I have had animals all my life. I have two dogs, both rescues and both have had medical problems that I have cared for. I have house sit for my mothers cat Fred, and for a family friends dogs Remmie and Demmie. I will treat your animal like a member of my family. My main concern for your pet is to make sure they are comfortable and not in harms way. I enjoy spending time with my dogs outside on runs. We jog or roller skate daily. Maintaining my dogs hydration and heat temperament is priority number one now that the weather is getting warmer. People forget that when animals exercise, they do it with a fur coat on. I spray my dogs down with cool water if we are going to be doing any strenuous exercise in the summer. I hope to complete schooling to be a certified trainer soon. I am in between jobs at the moment so I have no commitments to an employer. I have experience with temperamental animals. I have had a rescue that was so sweet but when he played at the dog park, sometimes he would play too rough. I made sure that he stayed leashed to me for safety reasons. My first priority with your pet is safety. I would rather be safe than sorry, even if I over do it. If you trust me with the care of your pet, you can be assured they are in the safe and loving hands.
About: Well hey there! I love animals of all shapes, colors and sizes they really are so precious. I’ve had pets ( dogs & cats) for as long as I can remember and they have always been a part of my family and they really become a family member. I love taking care of them so that could mean taking them on walks, feeding them, taking them outside, making sure they get taking care of, or just whatever they might need!!! I would love to take care of your precious little pups! I’m pretty flexible and relaxed so I can definitely negotiate with anything you or your pet might need. I am currently a stay at home mom and full time student so I am home pretty much all day. I am available to board/dog sit any day of the week. We have a fully fenced in yard and my house is baby proofed making it also dog proof. The safety of any pet is crucial for me so I always make sure they are safe, taking care of, getting lots of love, and making sure they feel comfortable.
“I cannot say enough great things about Ms. Rhonda. She has a huge heart and has more than enough love to give to your dog. She was a huge help with my pup! My pup had so much fun! I highly recommend Ms. Rhonda!”

About: Hi, I’ve had pets my entire life. I’ve had different breeds of dogs and birds small to big, hamsters, fish, and a hedgehog. I don’t remember a time without one, but we mostly had dogs. My pets have always been treated likes babies, they are family members too! I love to cuddle and spoil any animals. I have a decent sized fenced in area. Covered porches, front and back that have gates so they can explore and play when they want outside time without the worry of them wondering off. Where my house is located we don’t have to worry about traffic when we go for walks and exploring. For rainy days, I have indoor space great for play, treats/bones, toys, dog beds and more. Large house with large windows that they can look out and roam about. My dogs roam freely but if you prefer kennels we will accept your pets indoor kennel for use as you see fit. Your dog may lay or sleep where it’s most comfortable. We have toys and water bowls (but they recognize their own better) and dog beds for your pets fun and comfort. You must supply their own food. If they have a favorite toy or blanket they lay with feel free to bring them also! I’m a stay at home mom and have a passion for animals and thought this would be a great fit. I believe in compassionate loving care and lots of fun with our furry buddies. I also understand that sometimes the best thing for our animals is a strict schedule so whatever their need, I can provide a wonderful home away from home. I would like your fur baby to come and meet before a weekend or an overnight stay so they can be comfortable with their new surroundings. •Most Important is to have Proof of current vaccinations present for meet and greet, •I also prefer them to have the Bordetella vaccine •All pets must be on flea and tic prevention. •All pets must be house broken, there are exceptions. **PLEASE** Take the time to add a picture of your furry baby and fill out important details to your profile. That not only helps me but other sitters as well.

About: ***5/27/26 Update-My husband and I moved to Arkansas January 2026 to help with his families business in North Little Rock. My hours vary at work, either from 8-5, 10-7, or 10-5.

Look no further—I’m basically your pet’s personal go getter, ensuring they get everything they need! Potty breaks, walks, and food + water refills included! When you’re away, I’ll step in as your pet’s in-home bestie—making sure they’re safe, happy, and totally spoiled (in the responsible way). I follow your pet’s regular routine to a T—meals on time, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and all the snuggles they’ll allow—because consistency is comfort. I’m big on attention to detail, so I’ll keep an eye on the little things too (mood, appetite, energy, the “I definitely didn’t get into anything” face), and I’ll treat your home with the same respect. Basically: your pet gets VIP care, and you get peace of mind—plus a new furry friend who thinks I’m pretty cool.
About: Ever since I can remember, I have always been around and loved animals. My mom and dad were very influential in teaching me to love and care for them and how to read their body language. I have no problem caring for dogs in any age range, I can walk and house sit. I am currently working part time as a Realtor so I have plenty of time to watch and walk your pups!

About: I’ve had a soft spot for animals ever since I was a kid, and that passion has led me to care for a wide variety of creatures throughout my life. From raising rabbits, birds (parakeets, peacocks, turkeys, and more), and reptiles (bearded dragons, leopard geckos, ball pythons) to working on a farm since 2020, I’ve gained hands-on experience with animals of all shapes and sizes. Whether it’s dogs, cats, livestock, or exotic pets, I take pride in understanding their unique needs and providing compassionate care. Your pets are in loving, experienced hands with me. I have a flexible schedule and work from home. This allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets I care for. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or check-ins, I can easily adjust my routine to meet your pet’s needs and ensure they feel loved and cared for while you’re away. While boarding your animal in my home your pet will be with me the entire time. I refuse to leave animals unattended for any reason as being in a new environment can be kind of scary. I have a fully fenced in yard and keep my home clean so there are no choking or chewing hazards. Please feel free to reach out with any questions you may have.

“So great! First time boarding my dog so I was nervous, but Jaxx was in great hands. She sent me photos and updates while I was gone. My dog got along great with her pup and they got to play in a fenced in yard and everything! Would take him back there if I went on another trip for sure.”

“I can’t thank Asia enough for the amazing care she gave my dog. From the moment I dropped him off, I felt completely at ease. Rambo can be a bit much at first, but Asia went above and beyond to make him feel comfortable and at home. She kept me updated with daily photos and messages, showing Rambo relaxing, playing, and getting lots of love. It was clear he wasn’t just being watched—he was being cared for like family. She even noticed his food was getting low and made sure he was still fed, and took the extra time to keep up with his routine. When I picked Rambo up, he was calm, happy, and clearly well-loved. It honestly felt like he had been on a mini vacation of his own. I wouldn’t hesitate to trust her with him again with her family—they are reliable, and very kind. Highly recommend 10/10!”

“I had never gotten anyone to watch our dog, Bonni, before (other than family) & so I was a little worried, but she did great with Scout and her family!

Overall, communication was great, she kept me updated on how Bonni was doing with pictures, and I would 100% feel comfortable having her watch Bonni again!”

“Thomas took care of our 10 month old pup who was in need of socialization for Labor Day weekend. He and his family have great energy and their house is full of love.

“Larry was great! Our dog Buck is on a raw food diet which was no issue for Larry. He sent us regular updates with pictures, and communicated very well throughout our 10 day vacation. He made us feel very comfortable from the time of dropping Buck off to the time of pickup. Will be asking Larry to watch our dogs in the future. Highly recommend!”

Thanks again!!”
