“They took great care if my Blakelynn. She fell in Love with them in the 1st meet visit. So I wasn't as worried to leave her for the first time. She is a handful but Leisha & Elijah took great care of Blakelynn. I would definitely recommend them to take care if your fur baby!! Just make sure they can handle little kids.”
“KK had the best stay with her new animal friends! She played so hard that she mostly napped the rest of the day after I picked her up. Scout was super easy to work with and sent pictures of my girl with updates. Highly recommend!”
“My dog stayed with Samantha and Matthew twice and he loved it. I feel very comfortable leaving my dog with them and am confident he’s well taken care of. They are my first choice when I need a sitter in the future.”
“The best dog sitters and people for the job. They took such good care of my sweet Oliver and gave me updates. I appreciate it beyond words. The best of the best!!! Literally!”
“We were very happy with Chewie’s care during our trip. Vita took him on daily walks & gave him all the snuggles. She sent us picture and video updates each day, which we really appreciated! We would use her services again.”
About: I have had and taken care of many dogs and cats since I was a child. I believe dogs and cats are all unique and fun in there own way. I have trained them in basic commands, walked them, and spent many hours playing games like fetch and keep away. Im currently working part time from home so I have plenty of time to walk and play with your furry ones. Weekends and holidays are always also open. I have a fully fenced backyard for your pets during play time. I also enjoy providing neighborhood walks for them in the mornings and evenings.
“Mandy was amazing in every way! Kind and patient and sent me lots of pictures! I was afraid my Quincee would not want to leave. Thank you, Mandy! We’ll visit you every chance we get.”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover and single mom of two who has always had pets as part of my family. I have hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats and am comfortable with other animals as well. I provide house and pet sitting during the times my kids are with their dad, which allows me to fully focus on your pets and your home. I’m a teacher, so I’m available on weekends and major holidays, and I understand the importance of routines, clear communication, and responsibility. I take pride in keeping homes clean and organized—and I always try to leave things better than I found them. Your pets will be cared for with patience, attention, and lots of love, just like they’re my own. I’m a full-time teacher and work weekdays from 7:30 AM–4:00 PM. Outside of those hours, I’m home and able to devote my time and attention to your pets. I attend church on Sundays and Wednesday evenings, but otherwise keep a predictable, low-key schedule. When I accept a booking, your pets become a priority in my daily routine. I’m intentional about planning my time around their needs—whether that’s feeding schedules, playtime, check-ins, or simply being present so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I prefer to care for pets in their own home, where they are most comfortable and able to stick to their normal routine. Since I don’t currently have a fenced yard, this also allows me to safely meet each pet’s individual needs without disrupting their environment. I follow the pet’s usual schedule as closely as possible, including feeding times, walks, playtime, litter care, medications, and bedtime routines. I’ve found that consistency helps pets feel secure and reduces stress while their owners are away. I take time to help each animal feel calm and at ease—whether that means extra play, quiet companionship, or giving them space when they need it. My goal is always to provide care that feels familiar, loving, and dependable, so your pet stays happy and comfortable in your absence.
“Alicia was super patient with our dogs when they decided to not be on their best behavior. She kept me updated on how they were doing during their long stay with her. They were well cared for!”
About: As a Vet Tech student, I provide expert care for dogs. My five-year-old mix, Stormy, and I love adventures and ensuring every pet feels safe, healthy, and happy. I offer full-time care every day. I prefer morning and evening sessions to keep dogs cool and safe from the heat, ensuring your pet stays active and comfortable. I live in a first-floor apartment with a fenced yard. Your pet will enjoy a dedicated room to roam free and relax comfortably without any cages.
“My new bunny had a great time with Jackie. She’s young and I adopted her after she was found abandoned on the side of the road so she’s shy and skittish at times. However, Jackie was very patient with her and won her trust. When I picked her up I had to chase her around because she didn’t want to leave. I think she was having too much fun exploring the big house and hanging out with Jackie. I’m so happy to use Jackie as my trusted pet sitter once again! He treats all my pets like one of the family :)”
“Weddy was very happy and didn't want to leave after a long stay with Christina and her family. She sent me lots of photos. I was calm and sure Weddy got all the attention needed! Thanks!”
“We have a young nervous Maltese and was so nervous about leaving our baby for the weekend. Kamri was great with her and us, LOL! She communicated with is daily and sent pictures of our baby so we could see how she was doing, putting our fears about leaving Maple to rest. Thank you Kamri for taking such great care of our baby! We will definitely use Kamri as our babysitter in the future!”
About: You know those kids who really loved dinosaurs and knew every type? That was me but with dogs. Dog lover is an understatement. My dream as a little girl was to do something with dogs. I have been around them my whole entire life! One of my dogs have diabetes so I'm used to giving him insulin twice a day. And have raised plenty of land sharks, aka puppies! I work from home so it is easy for me to keep up with the animals. I also have 3 dogs and 1 cat of my own so I'm already used to the hectic lifestyle it can be sometimes :) I have two younger dog friendly dogs as well as a dog friendly cat. If a dog is at my house they will need to be friendly to both cats and dogs. I also have a fenced in yard for them to play and sniff around! I take my dogs on walks. My Aussie loves to play in water. I try to have lick mats or some kind of enrichment toys for them. We also train often :)
“Maru was absolutely amazing! We didn't worry for one second and Bella was so spoiled and loved during her whole stay! She learned how to use a doggy door, went on hikes, and made lots of new friends both human and four legged ones. We will definitely keep rebooting with Maru - her, her mom, her dogs, her kids - they were all the best and sweetest! Maru, we honestly cannot thank you enough!!”

“Morgan helped us out very last minute, she is extremely reliable, prompt, professional, sent updates & pictures and followed all instructions. She made our trip away soooo much more relaxing & worry free. Pearlee’s coat/fur was so shiny and soft when we returned, she pampered him daily. Thank you so very much, Morgan.”
About: When I was a kid, my family had 5 cats, so I've spent a lot of time with them. Even though I no longer have any myself, I spend a lot of time with friends' and family's cats and know the basics of taking care of them. I love a reason so sit and cuddle with a cat for hours, or help them hunt their favorite mouse toys.
“Renee was so good with my cat. She went above and beyond in every area. She updated us regularly and made sure that our cat was well-cared for and happy. Renee is a terrific person and will be my go-to sitter when I need someone to take care of our pet in the future. I highly suggest that you consider contacting her if you are in need of pet-sitting services. Garfield will see you again soon, Renee!!!!”

I am happy to accommodate the day and time that would work for you and your pet. I am easy to work with and happy to do what you need done. I look forward to being able to help with your babies!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets with care. I’m a football player at UCA, so my schedule stays structured and consistent. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and house sitting around practices and weekends. I care for pets in their own homes, making sure they feel safe and comfortable in their familiar space. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully and treat every home with respect.
“Lisa is an absolutely Wonderful sitter. She took care of my two cats for a couple of weeks and went above and beyond what I ever would have expected her to do! She stayed in contact every visit and sent some cute videos and pics. I would HIGHLY recommend Lisa for any of your pet sitting needs! =)”
“Charsy did a wonderful job caring for our beloved cats while we were away on a family vacation. She sent tons of adorable updates and gave us info on what our cats were up to while we were on vacation. Charsy sent tons of fantastic pictures and I could tell the kitties were being loved while we were gone.”
About: 🐾 16 Years of Paws, Purrs, and Play! 🐾 It’s official: my heart is now perfectly balanced! ⚖️ For those who know me, you know my life has been shaped by the dogs I’ve raised and loved for 16 years. But today marks a special milestone—I have now officially spent the exact same amount of time, 16 years, caring for cats! 🐱🐶 Whether it’s a wagging tail at the front door or a soft purr on my lap, my home (and my clothes, let’s be real) has been covered in fur for nearly two decades. People often ask if I’m a "dog person" or a "cat person," but the truth is simple: I’m an animal person, through and through. There’s something so rewarding about the different bonds they offer: * Dogs: Teach me about loyalty, boundless energy, and the joy of a long walk. * Cats: Teach me about patience, boundaries, and the art of the perfect afternoon nap.
“This was my first time using Rover and I was a little nervous leaving my fur kids with a stranger. I shouldn't have been though, because Miranda was fantastic! She spent extra time and attention on my shy kitties, and kept me updated with every visit. I will absolutely book with her again.”
About: I have extensive experience caring for cats and understand their unique needs, behaviors, and personalities. Over time, I’ve learned how to provide proper feeding routines, maintain clean litter boxes, and ensure a safe, comfortable environment. I’m attentive to their health and well-being, recognizing signs of illness or stress and responding appropriately. I’m also familiar with grooming, administering basic care, and giving cats the attention and affection they need while respecting their independence. Whether it’s playful interaction, quiet companionship, or maintaining their daily routine, I am confident in my ability to provide reliable and compassionate care for cats of all ages and temperaments.
About: I'm a relatively new cat owner, but I've been around cats all my life, either from taking care of my family's cats, my friends or the stray cats I find just out and about. No matter what, regardless of what kind of cat you have, you can trust that I will love and care for them just as much as you!
“Linda was just absolutely amazing!!! She went above and beyond in every instance. She spent time with Niah and brought her bandana’s and played ball with her. We felt so at ease having her taking care of our little fur babies!! Thank you Linda!!!”
“Katie was patient and understanding as we worked through Rover's payment system SNAFUs. She communicated wonderfully and kept to all my requests in taking care of my three cats during their drop-in visits. Would most definitely recommend! :)”
About: Animals, specifically dogs and cats, have always been a key part of my life. I have a black lab of my own named Indy and she is my pride and joy. There are also several other dogs and cats within my inner circle that I absolutely adore. I know how important it is to have someone you genuinely trust caring for your baby, and I would treat yours with the same love and attention I give my own. I’m dependable and comfortable following even the most elaborate routine, whether that includes walks, feeding schedules, playtime, medications, recovery restrictions, or lots of extra cuddles. I also have several close friends and family members who work in veterinary medicine, including my cousin who is currently in her third year of veterinary school and is always just a phone call away. My schedule is extremely flexible, which allows me to easily fit pet care into my daily routine. I’m able to adjust my schedule around your pet’s needs rather than expecting their routine to fit around mine. Pets in my home will be treated just like my own—with lots of love, attention, and plenty of cuddles! The dogs in my home are very friendly and accustomed to being around other animals. I want your pet to feel as comfortable and at home as possible while they’re with me. Pets are welcome on the furniture and beds in my home, especially if that’s what they’re used to at home. If your pet is crate-trained or you prefer them to be crated at certain times, I also have a kennel available and am happy to follow their normal routine.

About: I've always been a dog lover! Love a super clingy couch potatoe more than anything but high energy is also welcomed as i have an all in one doggo myself. I'm a calm, easy going dog owner and your pets will be loved and in good hands. I am currently a stay at home mom and spend most of my days at home. My dog gets let out 4-5 times a day and fed and water refreshed twice and I could put your babies on his schedule or I can tweak my day if there are any specific needs for your fur baby! I completely understand that not all dogs are the same.. mine is very complicated in his own way but we are there for him when he needs us to be and that applies to your babies as well! I will take extra time to pay attention to the details in your instructions on how to care for your babies because things go more smoothly that way! Not to mention their care being my top priority when visiting your home and especially caring for them in my own home.

About: We have been taking care of pets, livestock and wild life for 24 years. I have been in business as a groomer for 20 years and have transitioned to daycare and boarding. I board animals 7 days a week and do daycare Monday thru Saturday. Hours are 7 am to 6 pm Monday thru Saturday and 2pm to 6 pm on Sunday. I am located in the heart of Vilonia on a beautiful 35 acre farm. I have multiple fenced in areas, suites, kennels and catios to take care of any of your pets needs. We offer 2 snacks a day and can provide nature walks or a ride on our side by side. Our play areas all have turf so you don't have to worry about your dog getting muddy.
“Cailey is great, my husky puppy goes to her during the week while I’m at work and I am very happy with the care she has given! Daily pictures, willing to work on continued puppy training while she’s there, and gives me the peace of mind knowing my girl is safe while I’m away all day.”
About: From a young age I have always loved caring for pets. I started my own pet sitting business at age 10, and have been working with animals my whole life. My most recent position with pets was at a doggie daycare where I helped to monitor groups of 10-15 dogs at a time and loved every second of it. Through this experience I not only learned how to manage their behavior, but also how to keep them engaged and get their wiggles out. Dogs have always been part of my family and I know how hard it can be to leave your precious pup with someone you haven't met before. I will not only work to help get your dogs exercised, but also work hard to help them learn and have fun along the way.
About: I have a standard poodle who is about eight years old. He is my little ride or die and has made me realize that dogs are not just dogs. They’re like little miniature people with their own personalities. I am currently doing this full-time so I have a flexible schedule to be home with the dogs. I do have a son that I take to school. That is a teenager and he loves his animals too. I have full air ventilation system, where it absorbs any type of dandruff or debris. I also offer hardwood floors in case our pets have a mess and soft and cushy, blankets and cuddles.

About: I have owned animals since I was a small child, now grown I have a house full of pets that I call my own. I often pet sit for friends and family. Animals need to feel safe and cared and I will strive to bring those to your home each visit. I have experience across the spectrum of animals and all stages of life from needy pups to the "grumpy" ole men and woman. I also have experience providing oral medications. I'm currently available for pet care services throughout the day. I am available 7 am - 3:30 pm Monday - Thursday, 9 am - 10 pm Friday - Sunday. I will not be providing boarding services in my home but I am able to visit your home as much as necessary to take care of your pets, including in home visits. I have 3 kids and a husband who may assist in the visits but will never be the primary care giver to the animals. My kids have taken after me and love helping and meeting new animals. If you would not like the extra help please let me know and I will not bring them.
About: Throughout my life, my family has owned 4 dogs, and many of my friends own dogs that I spend a lot of time with. I currently have two dogs, as well as a few bonus neighborhood dogs, that I love both playing and relaxing with. I often am responsible for feeding, letting out, and cleaning up after my family dogs. I am a recent college graduate with no set job or schedule yet, so I'm very flexible! Presently, most of my work is gig work, so it is very easy for me to run by your house on my way to or from those gigs. I aim to give your pet as much of a sense of normalcy as I can! Whether they like to wrestle outside or sit together in silence, I want to give them whatever they need in the moment. I like to leave a space how I found it, so if they need any feeding or make any messes, I will clean up being myself or them.
“Cannot say enough great things about Charsy, Mango absolutely adores her and they have a great time together. Makes me happy knowing Mangie has a best friend to hangout with for a little bit while I’m away from home.”
About: I am a stay at home mom so, I can do checkins an potty time while you are at work. I have a pretty open availablity. I can do extra lovins while you are on vacation or out of town for work. I currently have 2 big dogs and a bird, I have had cats as well. I am ok with snakes and reptiles, just no spider type pets please. I love working with animals. My doggos are a bit older and both rescues. I have no problems dealing with medical issues and accidents. I have always had animals as long as I can remember, I can't imagine coming home to clean wintows and no happy wiggles and barks. I would treat your babies like mine. I am at home most days and rarely travel. I live in Morrilton but I am in Conway frequently. I have worked as an elderly care giver and had animals my whole life. I have a very nurturing spirit. I haven't met an animal I don't like. My kids get embarrased when I talk to animals I do not know as we walk down the street. I can't help it, it's the look in their eyes. They want lovins and I am a sucker for big floppy wiggles and waggs. I would be happy to care for your pets in your home. Caring for pets in my home is not an option at this time. We rescued a doggo from a dog fighting situation and have been able to get him ok with most people and our other dog, however he is not ready to make friends with other animals just yet.
About: I have strong experience caring for animals through both professional and personal roles. I previously worked as a kennel technician, where I was responsible for feeding, cleaning, monitoring health, and ensuring the comfort and safety of multiple animals each day. This role taught me how to handle pets of different sizes, temperaments, and needs with patience and confidence. In addition to my kennel experience, I have also provided pet-sitting services for people’s animals. Through dog sitting and general pet care, I’ve gained hands-on experience with daily routines such as walking, feeding, administering basic care, and giving pets the attention and companionship they need while their owners are away. These experiences have helped me develop a strong understanding of animal behavior, responsibility, and dependable care, making me confident in my ability to look after pets in a safe, attentive, and compassionate way. 💋🐶 I help care for the pet mini pigs we have and i have watched over dogs and i have a pet gecko i love. ❤️ I help take care of the animal as instructed off a list so i know to care for them correctly and bond with the baby.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets with care.

About: I’ve taken care of my family’s dogs for years, and I have two of my own—so I get it. I’m super dependable, really patient, and honestly just love being around animals. I care about doing things right and making sure every dog feels safe and happy. Right now I don’t have much going on, so I’m super flexible and can fit pet care in pretty much anytime. I’m taking a class, but I can work that around whatever schedule is needed. I don’t have a fenced yard, just being honest, but my dogs are super friendly and love other dogs. I can crate your dog if needed or keep them separate—we have a whole downstairs area I can stay in with them if that’s more comfortable. I’m also happy to take them on walks as often as needed to make sure they get plenty of exercise and attention.
About: I am doing school online at the moment and work for the state. I am in a family of four I have my mom, dad, and my special needs brother I help out a lot with. I have five dogs that I call my fur babies, and one cat that I might as well call a dog. I call her a dog just because she eats dog food lol. I have dog sat for many people and they recommend me to many others. I am applying to be a dog sitter on the side to make some extra cash too be able to help pay for my college classes. Any given chance that I can work with dogs and be able to take my energy out on them with playing im all for it! They can leave me a letter of what they would want me to do specifically. I have taken care of dogs by the notes that they have left me for quite sometime now.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for 15 years! I truly believe that dogs weren’t sent on this earth to be our little angels. I would give your little furry friend all the loves he or she could handle while you’re gone away at work or even vacation! ❤️ I’m currently part time at my job and I was looking to make some extra money while I’m not in school. What better way to do that than to spend it with your fur babies!? I’m pretty flexible. Just send me a message and we will work something out! ☺️ I can not bring any dogs over to my house, unfortunately because I have five dogs. Not sure how they would feel about me bringing over your furry friend. I would be more than happy to come over to your house and let them out, play with them, cuddle them, make sure they were fed and had water. When it was time for me to go, I will provide kisses and hugs to your lil pup. Free of charge! 😊
About: Hello! My name is Katherine, but you can call me Alex (less formal and easier to remember) I've been around many kinds of pets all my life! Dogs, cats, bunnies, guinea pigs, and even some fish and I have always treated them with the highest amount of care and respect! So no matter what, you can trust that I will love, care for, and respect your pets as much as you do I don't have a job currently, so I'm pretty free up all the time. I can't do boarding or care at my residence, but I can do whatever care you need at your home. I can do whatever is needed, feeding, watering, walking, brushing, nail trims, baths, sneaking in the cheeky pill for the stubborn dog or cat. Basically any care you need from me, I can do.
About: What sets me apart is that I truly treat every pet like they’re my own. I take the time to learn their personality, routines, and little quirks so they feel comfortable and loved while you’re away. I’m very attentive and dependable, and I’ll always keep you updated with pictures and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your fur baby is safe and happy. I understand how hard it can be to leave your pet with someone new, and my goal is to make that experience as stress-free as possible for both of you! So i currently am i xray tech and ma at Baptist urgent care in Little Rock, and my schedule is put out to where i work a couple days in a row, and then I’m off for a couple days and I get bored with those days I’m off and I want something I love to do! So in my house I have 3 dogs, I have a fenced in yard and I also have sun shade around my entire fence! My top priority is my dogs safety no matter what! And with someone’s else’s babies their safety always comes first!

My schedule is extremely flexible, which allows me to easily fit pet care into my daily routine. I’m able to adjust my schedule around your pet’s needs rather than expecting their routine to fit around mine. Pets in my home will be treated just like my own—with lots of love, attention, and plenty of cuddles! The dogs in my home are very friendly and accustomed to being around other animals. I want your pet to feel as comfortable and at home as possible while they’re with me. Pets are welcome on the furniture and beds in my home, especially if that’s what they’re used to at home. If your pet is crate-trained or you prefer them to be crated at certain times, I also have a kennel available and am happy to follow their normal routine.
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life. I’ve taken care of several dogs of varying age, size, energy levels, and shyness. Also have experience with chickens, goats, and pigs and how dogs interact with changes in their environment. I’m free most days, everything that I need to do is on my computer and can be done anytime and anywhere. I’m flexible and can fit into most clients’ schedule. I let them out when they want out, play when they want to play, and clean up any mess so that the client comes back to a just as clean or cleaner house and pets
About: I’ve had a pet for as long as I can remember-dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters and Guinea pigs. I love them all! I have watched friends/family members pets when needed and am reputable, reliable and check in frequently with updates. I currently work from home and looking for ways to continue to be able to do that yet contribute financially to my household and family. I live in a rural town with just under 10 acres. I do not have a fenced yard at this time, but I am working on that. I do have outdoor kennel areas that can be used if necessary. A lot of room to run and play and also take a nice stroll on a leash.
About: I took care of my boys for just over 14 years, twin Shih Tzu’s, they were the loves of my life. They taught me more patience and much more research especially when they became seniors and required medications. After their passing I’ve been honored to take care of others fur babies, 3 goldens + 1 king cavelier and another’s cat. I loved every minute of spending time, walking, playing and even just sitting with them for company. I’m currently working part time and am flexible to help out with your fur babies whether you need someone to stop by for a few hours or need someone to watch them overnight. I will, with your instructions, care for your pet(s) just as you would. Currently I am unable to care for them in my own home.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. I am an experienced sitter who you can trust to take amazing care of your pup. I take any (and all) opportunities to snuggle and go on fun adventures with dogs. Some people have told me I’m a dog whisperer at times… I have yet to prove them wrong. The availability I have is on weekends and after 4 pm on weekdays, available holidays. Stay overnight and accept long-term stays (longer than one week). I will love on your pooch with everything I have. I am incredibly reliable, trustworthy, and flexible. I wish I could have a dog of my own, but due to frequent traveling, it’s sadly not the right time for me. I love having the opportunity through Rover. Any and all instructions you leave for me will be followed with the utmost care to keep your little buddy happy!

“They took great care if my Blakelynn. She fell in Love with them in the 1st meet visit. So I wasn't as worried to leave her for the first time. She is a handful but Leisha & Elijah took great care of Blakelynn. I would definitely recommend them to take care if your fur baby!! Just make sure they can handle little kids.”
“KK had the best stay with her new animal friends! She played so hard that she mostly napped the rest of the day after I picked her up. Scout was super easy to work with and sent pictures of my girl with updates. Highly recommend!”
“My dog stayed with Samantha and Matthew twice and he loved it. I feel very comfortable leaving my dog with them and am confident he’s well taken care of. They are my first choice when I need a sitter in the future.”
About: I have had and taken care of many dogs and cats since I was a child. I believe dogs and cats are all unique and fun in there own way. I have trained them in basic commands, walked them, and spent many hours playing games like fetch and keep away. Im currently working part time from home so I have plenty of time to walk and play with your furry ones. Weekends and holidays are always also open. I have a fully fenced backyard for your pets during play time. I also enjoy providing neighborhood walks for them in the mornings and evenings.
“Mandy was amazing in every way! Kind and patient and sent me lots of pictures! I was afraid my Quincee would not want to leave. Thank you, Mandy! We’ll visit you every chance we get.”
“Alicia was super patient with our dogs when they decided to not be on their best behavior. She kept me updated on how they were doing during their long stay with her. They were well cared for!”
About: As a Vet Tech student, I provide expert care for dogs. My five-year-old mix, Stormy, and I love adventures and ensuring every pet feels safe, healthy, and happy. I offer full-time care every day. I prefer morning and evening sessions to keep dogs cool and safe from the heat, ensuring your pet stays active and comfortable. I live in a first-floor apartment with a fenced yard. Your pet will enjoy a dedicated room to roam free and relax comfortably without any cages.
“My new bunny had a great time with Jackie. She’s young and I adopted her after she was found abandoned on the side of the road so she’s shy and skittish at times. However, Jackie was very patient with her and won her trust. When I picked her up I had to chase her around because she didn’t want to leave. I think she was having too much fun exploring the big house and hanging out with Jackie. I’m so happy to use Jackie as my trusted pet sitter once again! He treats all my pets like one of the family :)”
“Weddy was very happy and didn't want to leave after a long stay with Christina and her family. She sent me lots of photos. I was calm and sure Weddy got all the attention needed! Thanks!”
“We have a young nervous Maltese and was so nervous about leaving our baby for the weekend. Kamri was great with her and us, LOL! She communicated with is daily and sent pictures of our baby so we could see how she was doing, putting our fears about leaving Maple to rest. Thank you Kamri for taking such great care of our baby! We will definitely use Kamri as our babysitter in the future!”
About: You know those kids who really loved dinosaurs and knew every type? That was me but with dogs. Dog lover is an understatement. My dream as a little girl was to do something with dogs. I have been around them my whole entire life! One of my dogs have diabetes so I'm used to giving him insulin twice a day. And have raised plenty of land sharks, aka puppies! I work from home so it is easy for me to keep up with the animals. I also have 3 dogs and 1 cat of my own so I'm already used to the hectic lifestyle it can be sometimes :) I have two younger dog friendly dogs as well as a dog friendly cat. If a dog is at my house they will need to be friendly to both cats and dogs. I also have a fenced in yard for them to play and sniff around! I take my dogs on walks. My Aussie loves to play in water. I try to have lick mats or some kind of enrichment toys for them. We also train often :)
“Maru was absolutely amazing! We didn't worry for one second and Bella was so spoiled and loved during her whole stay! She learned how to use a doggy door, went on hikes, and made lots of new friends both human and four legged ones. We will definitely keep rebooting with Maru - her, her mom, her dogs, her kids - they were all the best and sweetest! Maru, we honestly cannot thank you enough!!”
“Extremely pleased with Vanessa. Great communication and took great care of my dog who turned out to be more high maintenance than she was probably expecting (me as welll). She will definately be my first choice for future dog watching needs.”
“Lacey and her husband took amazing care of my dog, Winston! Lacey is friendly and is willing to go above and beyond for the animal and their owner. I would recommend her and will definitely be using her services in the future. :) thanks Lacey!”
About: I have a standard poodle who is about eight years old. He is my little ride or die and has made me realize that dogs are not just dogs. They’re like little miniature people with their own personalities. I am currently doing this full-time so I have a flexible schedule to be home with the dogs. I do have a son that I take to school. That is a teenager and he loves his animals too. I have full air ventilation system, where it absorbs any type of dandruff or debris. I also offer hardwood floors in case our pets have a mess and soft and cushy, blankets and cuddles.
