About: We absolutely love animals, and want to share our home and fenced yard with your pooch. We understand what it’s like to leave your dog with someone else while you’re away; we will treat your dog like a member of our family. I (Diana) grew up on a farm with lots of different animals and dogs, and understand how each one has their own fantastic personality. Just let me know what they need, and I can do it. We’ve had puppies, older dogs, big dogs, small dogs, and everything in between! My tween/teen kids are kind and fun with animals, and will provide even more love and attention for your dog while they stay with us. Thank you for trusting us with your favorite furry buddy! We primarily work from home so we can spend a lot of quality time with your dog. We have a Newfoundland-poodle mix of our own, so our daily routine is already focused on dog care (feeding, walking, letting outside, etc). Just let me know what your dog needs! We also have goats, chickens, outdoor cats, and a couple of feral peacocks that hang around the property. It’s a pet paradise. 😊 We have a large fenced yard and a big goofball named Hoagie to keep your doggy company. We will love and care for your dog as if he/she was our own, because that’s what we would expect for Hoagie while we’re away. We have extra pet beds, food and water dishes, etc. Our yard is perfect for a game of fetch, a sunbathing session, playtime with Hoagie, or just a great sniff. We’re happy to have your dog sleep in one of our bedrooms, take them for walks, and give them all the love.
“We left Buddy with Grant for 5 days. Grant provides the best environment for dog sitting. Grant provided us with pictures throughout Buddy's stay. It was obvious Buddy was enjoying his stay and interacting with the other dogs. Grant is passionate about dogs and it shows with the care he provides. We will book with Grant again.”
“Kandra was excellent!! Very responsive on text with my many questions, kind, easygoing, warm with our dog and sent pictures of our pet during our trip. I would highly recommend her and we will definitely be reaching out to her for future vacations!! Thank you so much, Kandra!! 😃”
“Aron was Great! Couldn’t be happier with his services - my 85 lb mutt got along great with his beagle and the other dogs around for an overnight stay. Might have to bring him back for a playdate now and again because he’s got a lot of energy. Thanks Aron!”
“What an amazing experience! My puppy was so happy and came home almost sad to leave! The daily updates and pictures put my mind to ease! Thank you, Diane for treating him like family!”
“5 Star treatment for our dogs. Daily updates and pics several times a day witch gives a great amount of relief that they are beifn greatly cared for. Lots of play time, Love and cuddles too! Our elderly dog was shown great care. Medicines on time and well administered. BEST BOARDING EXPERIENCE.”
“Nicole and Jarrod did a great job taking care of Bear while we were gone. We enjoyed the updates and pictures! We were at ease knowing he was being well taken care of”
“I was nervous having to use this app for my dogs to stay the night at a strangers house. My original plans fell through. Hailey not only accommodated my last minute plans so I could still go on my trip, I completely messed up the booking and she had no clue problems accommodating this as well. She gave me updates throughout the visit. I was so happy to hear my dogs got along great with her dogs and kids. She used her best judgement on when she introduced the dogs which all I wanted was for her to be comfortable. I did tell her my dogs go to daycare 4 days a week so I know my dogs are well behaved but you still never know. I will definitely be using her again. She already said she would be happy to watch my dogs for my vacation in July.”
“I received great feedback/updates throughout Kaiya's stay. I really appreciate Samantha spending so much time with my pup by taking her out into the wild (her great property) and the pond. Kaiya was also introduced to a horse on her property. Kaiya was really given a great experience and was looking back outside the windowwhen we departed. She may not have wanted to leave just yet. We will use Samantha's services again. Thanks Samantha!”
“Abbie did a great job taking care of Ella-dog. Her communication was prompt and professional and most importantly Ella-dog had a great time. 10/10 would happily recommend to anyone.”
“Alesya, it's a fantastic discovery for our family. Our one-year-old Maltese Snowie has a great time staying with her and her family. I felt great when I met her! She is a lovely, responsible person. She also sends me daily reports, videos, and pictures of our little girl while she watches her. We definitely will book her again and refer her to our friends 🥰”
“Amanda was reliable front start to finish. She was commutative throughout our arranged time. Also sent pictures random throughout the day. Our lincoln seemed at home with their littles. 😀 I hope to be able to use her in near future.”
“Thank you Lisa. Excellent dog care! She took great care of our dog Aspen for one night—very friendly, reliable, and attentive. They sent us picture, updates and communicated timely and well throughout. We’ll definitely be using her again and look forward to be repeat customers!”
“Leslie and her husband treated our Sherman as one of their own! He had a great time playing with their pup and enjoyed getting all the special attention! With the numerous pics taken I can tell he was on his very own vacation! Definitely recommend Leslie!”
“We are glad we found Logan in town! We needed a petsitter for the weekend, and Logan was available! She was great, took them on walks, send pictures and updates! We’d definitely recommend her for anyone who is looking for a pet sitter. Thank you Logan for the great care of our pets!”
“Ruby watched my pup while I was away and I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience! From the very first interaction, she was professional, friendly, and eager to ensure my boy felt comfortable and safe in my absence. Throughout the time I was away,, Ruby provided regular updates, including photos and videos, which made me feel at ease and reassured that my pet was being well cared for. I would highly recommend Ruby to anyone in need of a reliable and caring pet sitter. I will certainly be booking again for my next trip!”
“Being the first time leaving Alistair since I rescued him 4 yrs ago and now mostly retired as my service animal due to a vision problem. I was really anxious about leaving him with anyone. My mind was put to rest after the meet up Linda and her husband have a true gift with putting both Alistair and myself at ease. I cried when I left but was relieved shortly after with photos of him strolling on their beautiful property. I was sent photos regularly during my trip. What a relief to know he's got a loving place to go the next time I need to leave him. Just great people. ?”
“Mrs. Pam responded to my service request at last minute for my fur baby within an hour. She sent updates periodically and I totally felt my baby was left in safe hands! I would highly recommend her.”
“Jennifer and family were great!! I think they went above and beyond to care for our dog Chewie while we were out of town for Thanksgiving. I would highly recommend her and will book her again when needed!! Thanks Jennifer💕”

“Sonya is a star! 🌟 I am so happy with her care and support of my fur babies. She was punctual, attentive and so warm and loving of my kitties. All directions were followed purrfectly, and she even brought a brushy glove of her own to love up on my cats with. I am super super pleased and will definitely be looking to request her to help us again in the future. I highly recommend Sonya for reliable, caring and loving pet services!! You will not be disappointed! 🐾🐈⬛💟💯☮️🐈🐾”
“Natalie was awesome! I came home to very happy cats even a thank-you note. Natalie was super reliable and communicative and totally helped me out with my last-minute request, for which I'm super grateful.”
About: I'm a bit new to the cat owner world, but I love it! About eight months ago, my families cat gave birth to a litter of eight kittens. It was so fun to be able to watch as they grew and formed their own personalities. This made me realize how much I really love cats, and made the choosing between cats and dogs much harder!
“Yolanda is genuinely fantastic!!! First of all, she’s so kind and you can tell she truly loves animals and people. She came and met our furry family and was very attentive to the details of how to care for them. Prior to our vacation, she checked in and was very communicative and excited to come and stay. I sent a few videos via the app on some updated protocols with the kitty meds, and she was on it! While she was here, she sent sweet pics of our kitties and kept us posted. Our cats are “elders” and needs meds, and she did a great job handling all of it! She left our house spotless and communicated prior to heading out as well. I would HIGHLY recommend Yolanda to care for you furry family ❤️🙏”
About: I’ve been an animal lover since I was a kid, and even had the opportunity to volunteer at a boarding place when I was 8 where I got to play with, help train and take care of the dogs that came through. I’ve being pet sitting for about 3 years now for friends, neighbors, and strangers I’ve met through others I have previously pet sat for. I’m currently a full time college student and have been needing some extra money to help me get through, so I thought this would be a perfect fit! I have a large fenced yard with two dogs and two cats who my family and I love dearly. One of our cats was actually a pregnant stray who we brought in, and had a litter of 7 kittens!
“Jillian was great! She ensured Sunny was well looked after and at ease during the fireworks, and she kept me updated with numerous photos of their brushing and cuddling sessions. It's clear that they had many exciting outdoor adventures, given that Sunny is an outdoor cat. Jillian ensured his food and water dishes were always full, provided plenty of tuna snacks, and even cleaned his litter box. Considering the way they interacted in the videos, it's evident that they share a special bond. I wholeheartedly recommend Jillian and will definitely hire her again.”
About: I love dogs, I love cats, and truly all animals. I treat every pet as family, offering dependable care, kindness, and attention to their unique needs. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or just keeping them company, I’m here to make them feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. My schedule is very flexible, so I can easily adapt to your pet’s needs. Mornings start with feeding, walks (if needed), and playtime. Throughout the day, I provide potty breaks, short walks, and attention. Evenings include dinner, exercise, and cuddles before a final bathroom break. Since I’m home often, your pet will get frequent companionship, and I can stick to their usual routine—whether that’s medication, training, or extra play. Weekends allow for longer adventures like park visits or extended play sessions. In My Home: I provide a pet-friendly space with scheduled feedings, walks, playtime, and cozy rest areas. Your pet gets constant attention, safe socialization (if approved), and a structured routine. I have 10+ acres of space to allow your pets to be free to have fun. In Client’s Home: I follow your pet’s normal schedule (meals, walks, meds) and keep their environment familiar. Includes updates, litter/yard cleanup, and extra cuddles to reduce stress while you’re away.
About: I've been pet sitting and farm/house sitting since I was about 14 years old and grew up with animals of my own on my parents' farm. I'm super excited and also very confident in my abilities to watch and care for your pet as if they were my own! I work remotely, so I'm able to cater my schedule to the needs of any pets I'm sitting. This could mean early morning and evening walks, mid day check ins, etc. I take notes on what the owner typically offers the pet in their normal day to day and incorporate that so the pet feels as comfortable as possible. However, I will ask if your pet (if a dog) is up for a daily hike as this is what I do by myself regardless. Secretly looking for a hiking buddy 👀
About: I love being with older and disabled animals. I have my experience from working in Animal Shelters for about 2 years, doggie daycares, pet crematories and also petsitting for different companies and myself over 20 yrs. I am a full time traveling pet/housesitter with my 14 yr old pup. I have owned many animals throughout my life and have experience with meds, subQ fluids, end of life, aggressive dogs/cats and finicky pets. I'll treat your babies as if they were mine! I can also share many reviews from other platforms upon request. I am always available to help you out with your fur babies anytime! I work remotely and have a very flexible schedule. Everyday, any time I will follow all directions given in writing on how to care best for your sweet baby. I can do walks, playtime, exercise, training, massage and reiki and anything else needed!
About: Taking care of animals is my second nature. I grew up with animals; horses, cats, dogs, birds, rodents my entire life. I naturally feel their needs and have an unconditional love for animals I am super flexible for the summer. Tell me where you and your pet need help and I'm sure that we can work it out. I have a dog myself who loves to join walks. He is very well behaved and has taught several young dogs the code of social and healthy dog behavior. Of course I will keep your dog on a leash or in a crate when necessary
“Colin did a great job taking care of our animals while we were on vacation. He was great with communication and always kept me up on how things were going. It was great to feel comfortable leaving on vacation and knowing our animals were well cared for.”
About: I’ve taken care and been around cats since I was little. I’m extremely in tune with their quirks and reading what they’re okay and not okay with. I’ve had 3 of my own cats, male and female. I know how to give oral medications and injections.
“Kellie always checks in regularly with thorough updates. She took extra care with looking after my garden in the heat. On both occasions that I have hired Kellie, she has left my house exactly as she found it (maybe even cleaner).”

“Nicole and Jarrod are amazing for doggy daycare. You know your dog has fun when they’re excited to leave not to mention the fun places they take the dogs. Thanks again guys”
About: We loved our pound puppy from birth until he passed at year 13:(. We love all things dog. We saw him through the puppy years, daily walks, and the older years with wagon rides. We will love your baby as we loved ours. I am stay at home mom with two littles who love dogs!! We can’t wait to walk your dog several times a day and snuggle. We walk all the time, go to parks, have a fenced in area (10x10 area), snuggle. We are a responsible family, we eat healthy and feed our family/ pets the same. We enjoy the outdoors, non smoking, super clean people:)
“We were camping with our dog in June Lake and wanted to do a day trip to Yosemite. Unfortunately, being a national park, dogs are not allowed on most trails. Tanya was a great way for all of us to enjoy the day, and she's so convenient being less than 5 minutes away from Tioga Pass. We dropped Jake off a bit later than planned because a few in our group struggled with the early wake-up we had planned, but Tanya was understanding and accommodating. We had a full day in Yosemite and picked Jake up in the late afternoon. Highly recommended for anyone in the June Lake or Mammoth Lakes area who can't take their pup on a trip or just wants to give your dog a break.”

“Koko loves to visit Diane & Augie, and we love sending her because we know how happy and well cared for when she is there. We also appreciate how well Diane communicates before, during and after the booking.”
“Louisa was absolutely wonderful! On our trip up to Ashland, we were hit with wildfires in the neighboring area and the air quality was horrible. Our original arrangements for our dog fell through and I didn't feel comfortable leaving my dog alone in a kennel outdoors for a couple of hours at our air bnb, but thankfully there was Louisa. My dog can be a bit anxious around other dogs she doesn't know. She growled a bit at Louisa's puppy when we arrived for our meet and greet and I was worried that behavior may continue. Louisa was very reassuring and kept us posted on our dogs behavior and well being. She sent photos through out the day and I was so happy to have someone so trusting & responsive take care of our dog while we were out of town. Thank you so much Louisa!”
“Katya provided a safe, comfortable, happy play stay for our 20-month-old golden retriever. Mattie loved playing with Dewi and Mishka! Katya's calm demeanor put our girl at ease right away. You can tell that she is a dog lover who understands how to take charge while still having fun. Definitely will use her services in the future!”
About: Dogs are part of the family! I grew up with animals and have always taken our responsibility to pets seriously. I'm trained as a professional pet nutrition advocate and have experience not just feeding all the pets but truly healing thru nutrition with everything from making whole foods and supplements, to designing recipes and diets, including the treats, to training and socializing dogs of all ages and backgrounds. I've built my schedule around pet care including making the foods and minimum 2 walks a day. I'm happy to make time for the pets anytime! Whether I'm staying over with your dogs or they're staying over with me, I strive to keep them happy and healthy in every way with good nutrition, exercise and quality interaction.
About: I have been doing Rover for over a year now and have helped a number of happy clients. I am active and can run higher energy, working dogs. I am based in the Sacramento area. My availability varies based on my work schedule so the best way to schedule is to message me. Your dog(s) will get plenty of attention and care while I am either sitting, walking or seeing them for a drop-in visit. I can take your dog on adventures such as hikes, trips to the dog park or on long runs if your dog needs extra exercise. While sitting, you will be assured your dog will get plenty of love, pets and opportunities to play. I look forward to the chance to of spend some quality time with your dog.
“What a great environment for my dog. The backyard is a dog's dream, especially if your pup likes to run. Yolanda was very accommodating when I was delayed and kept me informed of how Beau was doing during his stay. I would highly recommend Yolanda and her Doggy Day Care.”
About: I've taken care of all different breeds of dogs my entire life. As well as personalities. Whether they're shedders, have an anxious attachment, are seniors, babies, aggressive/reactive dogs.. they all need love. And I'm here to help! I'm 100% available for your needs. I've been helping with animals my entire life, but I am new to the area. So I am fully available and looking for new opportunities! I worked 5 years for a family walking their dog an hour and a half every morning. They traveled during the summers and he would stay at my place and go on a ton of adventures with me! Whether it was beach trips, hikes, dog parks, sleepovers with friends and family.. he always tagged along! I’m happy to find a similar situation in Northern California. I am available full-time! I'm adaptable and am happy to accommodate to your needs. I know animal parents also have their preferences when it comes to how their babies are treated, so I'm here to do whatever it takes to make everyone comfortable.
About: I grew up on a large family farm with all kinds of animals. We recently had two senior Shih Tzu's that each had their own special needs. After the loss, we are ready to open our home to new pups! We love all dogs and animals of all kinds. Our property is a large 3 acres. Our large backyard is fenced. We enjoy hiking and long walks. My husband works from home so there's someone always here for potty breaks, snuggles and treats. We do have one friendly, easygoing cat. Your dog must be comfortable around cats. We are happy to give medications or whatever special needs that you might require. My husband works from home and we are generally homebody people. I work about 32 hours a work. I am usually at work at 10 am and home by 5:30 pm. Our cat is self-sufficient and has his own bathroom space with his automatic food feeder and litter box. This limits dogs from being cat box curious.
About: I had 3 dogs and 2 cats growing up which I helped to take care of and I’ve worked at a doggy day care company walking and training dogs I’m currently free during the week every day but Wednesday’s. I can do boarding any time and while I’m busy I can leave the dog in my yard which is fenced and very safe, and normally my roommates (who like pets) are around to check in on the dog if I have to leave for a little I have a large fenced front yard and a separate fenced backyard with a pond, plants and lots of space to roam around! I am in a very walkable area and will walk the dogs regularly, or can take them to the beach or a park if they are ok to be in the car. I will never put your dog in a crate and will give them lots of freedom to wander around and relax in my home.

“Sonya does an excellent job! Not only is she great with my crazy pup, her background in animal nutrition has been an invaluable resource as I am working to improve my dogs diet. I appreciate her availability and wonderful care!”
About: People often say I have a way with animals. They always seem drawn to me immediately, even when they are wary of others. I feel honored that animals feel this way about me because I feel the same about them! I have cared for many dogs of all sizes as well as owned cats. I have volunteered at a dog rescue in Thailand that has many disabled dogs as well as fostered cats/kittens here at home. I have a big fenced yard with both grass and forest to run and play. I don’t have multiple dogs staying with me at one time ( unless discussed in advance) so your baby will get all the attention. Although I will never replace you, I can provide love and safety until you return (and probably some treats and adventures too!) I'm currently not working and can dedicate my time to pet/house sitting and care. As you can see from my photo gallery, I love all animals and have volunteered at a dog rescue in Thailand, fostered kittens at home, and have seen very cool animals in the wild and at animal rescues/sanctuaries around the world. (I always vet them to make sure they are ethical and doing legit work) I have a large fenced yard and indoor space for cats or dogs. We have plenty of shade and are also willing to take pets with us on outings. I live with my husband and son and they also love and respect animals. As far as caring for pets at someone else's home, I can stay at your house or check in as often as needed. I will play with them, feed them, bathe them, take them places (if requested) and give them love. I know they miss their people and its not the same without you, but I do my best to make them feel safe and comfortable.
About: I have been an animal lover my entire life. I am 52 years old and began walking my neighbors' dogs and housesitting for friends. When I lost my soulmate Layla after 14 years, I found a big void in my life. Being around animal energy is so fulfilling for me. This is when I decided to offer my love to others fur babies. I feel an immediate connection when meeting my new friends, I look forward to meeting your loved ones! I recently moved to Lake Wildwood from Martinez where I had built up quite a clientele. I work remotely which gives me ample flexibility for play time, potty breaks, cuddles and exercise. I love having company when working. I am told I am a wonderful houseguest as I have so much respect and honor the responsibilities of being a guest in your home. I will leave your home exactly as you left it. I work in the Fitness Industry so your pup is in good hands whether they need a short stroll or a long hike!
“Elle has a kind and humble manner with animals, and was able to gain the trust of our shelter adoptee with mild separation anxiety, early on. Elle has been Kai's main handler for the past two weeks and has been very consistent with the schedule and very capable with some simply training commands that have been countering some reactive behavior. We are very grateful!”
About: Some of my earliest memories are of taking care of Queensland Heeler puppies in my outdoor playhouse. My parents were breeders & ever since then I’ve had a very special connection to dogs! I have taken care of many different types of furry friends from puppies to seniors, from chihuahuas to Belgian Malinois. I have also fostered rescues in my home from time to time. All while having two dogs myself! Looking to build a relationship with a few clients who need their pups walked daily/ boarded while they are away at work or vacation. I am a new stay at home mom so my schedule is very open & flexible! I have a fenced yard and plenty of space for your pet and mine to run and play! I can also provide a crate in a spare bedroom for your pet if they need their own space. I am also very big on walks, me and my dogs go on a walk everyday! Plenty of treats & pets will be provided as well as updates & photos to you!
About: I have had an array of pets my entire life. I am a true animal lover! I even grew up breeding, training and showing dogs with my Mom. Currently I have 9 fur babies who are my best companions. They love new friends, are up for new adventures and are very sweet and social butterflies. I would love to care for your well mannered fur baby while you are away or just need a day here and there for walks, etc. Note: For boarding in our home we require your fur baby is well mannered, potty trained and gets along with both cats and other dogs. My schedule is pretty flexible most of the time and I enjoy being home with all the fur babies! My home is very spacious and fur baby friendly! I have a large safe open area for daytime play as well as plenty of room for cozy cuddles at bedtime. I typically allow all fur babies on couches and beds as well.
“Natalie is kind, consistent and reliable. We’ve been very lucky to have her skillful, calm, presence assisting with daily walks and positive reinforcement training for our high energy pup, Kai.”
About: With over 18 years of experience living and working with dogs of all sizes, I have developed a deep understanding and passion for canine behavior, particularly with Bully breeds. My experience extends beyond typical pet care; for four years, I had the privilege of working with a no-kill shelter, where I honed my skills in training, redirecting aggression, and managing over-stimulation. I specialize in rebuilding trust with dogs who have had rough beginnings, carefully helping them heal and adjust so they can thrive in a new home. Whether it's gentle guidance or firm redirection, my goal is always to create a calm, loving environment where dogs can feel safe and be successfully integrated for rehoming. I work part time which leaves me free most days to play with or train with my furry friends. Days of the week may change during to a fluctuating work schedule but there is always 1-2 weeks notice if I am available or not. At this time I am just available to come to your home, or local outings. I do have a crate and a mid-sized vehicle, if needed I can transport or go on field trips to the dog park or river.

About: I offer calm, attentive care for pets, with a steady presence that helps animals feel safe and settled. • Experienced with dog walking, feeding, and drop-in care • Calm, attentive, and intuitive with animals of all temperaments • Comfortable with routines, medications, and special needs • Reliable and respectful in both short visits and extended care Over the past several years, I’ve immersed myself in house and pet sitting, earning a reputation for reliability, cleanliness, discretion, and a calm, responsible presence. I’m often entrusted with extended and live-in care, and I take stewardship of both pets and home seriously. I’ve cared for a wide range of animals and situations, including long-term dog sitting for a couple over several years, from weekend trips to multi-week stays. Before a period of travel abroad, they even flew me to Portland to care for their dogs, Sana and Osa, and their cat Ninja during a three-week wedding trip to Mexico. Sana required extra sensitivity and daily car rides to a quiet cemetery to avoid overstimulation, which I was happy to accommodate. I’ve also house- and pet-sat for a senior couple, caring for two cats, two chickens, and managing a daily bird-feeding system for local avian visitors who were dear companions to the homeowner. In another sit, I tended to a rescue crow and her two cat companions for a full month while the owners were in India studying Vedic astrology. In many of these situations, I’ve also been responsible for watering plants, collecting mail, maintaining routines, and simply being a reassuring human presence in the home—keeping things running smoothly, lights on, and the house clearly lived-in while owners are away. I’m very comfortable accommodating unique requests and supporting both pets and homes with care and respect. I work remotely with a flexible schedule, which allows me to be present and adapt my day around your pets’ needs. I’m able to accommodate feeding schedules, walks, medication, playtime, and companionship, and I’m open to coordinating routines that support your pet’s comfort and wellbeing. I provide care in my clients’ homes, maintaining their pets’ normal routines and environment. I focus on calm, attentive presence, safety, and clear communication. I’m comfortable administering medication, managing feeding and exercise, and keeping the home clean, secure, and lived-in while you’re away. I treat each home and animal with respect, discretion, and care.
About: I have taken care of various dogs through the years. All sizes and ages. Usually love to take them on long walks and hikes around my neighborhood. I’m available to walk in the morning and afternoon. I am also available to take in pets for an over weekend or in home care. I like to walk dogs as often as I can or on very long walks. I have a pretty spacious apartment so they can run around. I have a cat who is very friendly with other dogs.

I will never put your dog in a crate and will give them lots of freedom to wander around and relax in my home.
About: I have my own dog, 2 cats, and chickens. I've cared for many dogs and cats in my life and treat every animal with love as if it were my own. I have a housecleaning business and will leave your home clean upon your arrival, including all linens and beds made. Most of my sitting clients are referrals off app, but I'm scheduling new clients and excited to make new connections. NOTE: My dog comes with me to all clients homes. He is a very friendly, well behaved, respectful, submissive boy who loves making new friends. He's great with cats and all animals. I work part time, but have a very flexible schedule that I can easily make arrangements. Pet sitting is very suitable for my work life. I don't offer this service unless it is absolutely necessary and your pets are comfortable around other animals. I live on 25 acres and have a dog, cats and chickens at my home. They all roam freely around the property and the dog and cats have access to the home through a dog door.

About: We absolutely love animals, and want to share our home and fenced yard with your pooch. We understand what it’s like to leave your dog with someone else while you’re away; we will treat your dog like a member of our family. I (Diana) grew up on a farm with lots of different animals and dogs, and understand how each one has their own fantastic personality. Just let me know what they need, and I can do it. We’ve had puppies, older dogs, big dogs, small dogs, and everything in between! My tween/teen kids are kind and fun with animals, and will provide even more love and attention for your dog while they stay with us. Thank you for trusting us with your favorite furry buddy! We primarily work from home so we can spend a lot of quality time with your dog. We have a Newfoundland-poodle mix of our own, so our daily routine is already focused on dog care (feeding, walking, letting outside, etc). Just let me know what your dog needs! We also have goats, chickens, outdoor cats, and a couple of feral peacocks that hang around the property. It’s a pet paradise. 😊 We have a large fenced yard and a big goofball named Hoagie to keep your doggy company. We will love and care for your dog as if he/she was our own, because that’s what we would expect for Hoagie while we’re away. We have extra pet beds, food and water dishes, etc. Our yard is perfect for a game of fetch, a sunbathing session, playtime with Hoagie, or just a great sniff. We’re happy to have your dog sleep in one of our bedrooms, take them for walks, and give them all the love.
“We left Buddy with Grant for 5 days. Grant provides the best environment for dog sitting. Grant provided us with pictures throughout Buddy's stay. It was obvious Buddy was enjoying his stay and interacting with the other dogs. Grant is passionate about dogs and it shows with the care he provides. We will book with Grant again.”
“Kandra was excellent!! Very responsive on text with my many questions, kind, easygoing, warm with our dog and sent pictures of our pet during our trip. I would highly recommend her and we will definitely be reaching out to her for future vacations!! Thank you so much, Kandra!! 😃”
“Aron was Great! Couldn’t be happier with his services - my 85 lb mutt got along great with his beagle and the other dogs around for an overnight stay. Might have to bring him back for a playdate now and again because he’s got a lot of energy. Thanks Aron!”
“What an amazing experience! My puppy was so happy and came home almost sad to leave! The daily updates and pictures put my mind to ease! Thank you, Diane for treating him like family!”

“Nicole and Jarrod did a great job taking care of Bear while we were gone. We enjoyed the updates and pictures! We were at ease knowing he was being well taken care of”
“I was nervous having to use this app for my dogs to stay the night at a strangers house. My original plans fell through. Hailey not only accommodated my last minute plans so I could still go on my trip, I completely messed up the booking and she had no clue problems accommodating this as well. She gave me updates throughout the visit. I was so happy to hear my dogs got along great with her dogs and kids. She used her best judgement on when she introduced the dogs which all I wanted was for her to be comfortable. I did tell her my dogs go to daycare 4 days a week so I know my dogs are well behaved but you still never know. I will definitely be using her again. She already said she would be happy to watch my dogs for my vacation in July.”
“I received great feedback/updates throughout Kaiya's stay. I really appreciate Samantha spending so much time with my pup by taking her out into the wild (her great property) and the pond. Kaiya was also introduced to a horse on her property. Kaiya was really given a great experience and was looking back outside the windowwhen we departed. She may not have wanted to leave just yet. We will use Samantha's services again. Thanks Samantha!”
“Abbie did a great job taking care of Ella-dog. Her communication was prompt and professional and most importantly Ella-dog had a great time. 10/10 would happily recommend to anyone.”
“Amanda was reliable front start to finish. She was commutative throughout our arranged time. Also sent pictures random throughout the day. Our lincoln seemed at home with their littles. 😀 I hope to be able to use her in near future.”
“Thank you Lisa. Excellent dog care! She took great care of our dog Aspen for one night—very friendly, reliable, and attentive. They sent us picture, updates and communicated timely and well throughout. We’ll definitely be using her again and look forward to be repeat customers!”
“Leslie and her husband treated our Sherman as one of their own! He had a great time playing with their pup and enjoyed getting all the special attention! With the numerous pics taken I can tell he was on his very own vacation! Definitely recommend Leslie!”
“We are glad we found Logan in town! We needed a petsitter for the weekend, and Logan was available! She was great, took them on walks, send pictures and updates! We’d definitely recommend her for anyone who is looking for a pet sitter. Thank you Logan for the great care of our pets!”
“Being the first time leaving Alistair since I rescued him 4 yrs ago and now mostly retired as my service animal due to a vision problem. I was really anxious about leaving him with anyone. My mind was put to rest after the meet up Linda and her husband have a true gift with putting both Alistair and myself at ease. I cried when I left but was relieved shortly after with photos of him strolling on their beautiful property. I was sent photos regularly during my trip. What a relief to know he's got a loving place to go the next time I need to leave him. Just great people. ?”
“Jennifer and family were great!! I think they went above and beyond to care for our dog Chewie while we were out of town for Thanksgiving. I would highly recommend her and will book her again when needed!! Thanks Jennifer💕”
“Nicole was awesome and Bailey had a fantastic time. She treated Bailey like she was her own dog and I couldn’t ask for more sent many pictures and updates and just love the fact that I have somebody that I can go to if I have to go out of town I highly recommend her.”
“Arwen and her family welcomed our pup and took very good care of her. It was really nice to get updates and pictures while we were away. We will definitely be leaving our dog with them the next time we need a sitter. Highly recommend. ?”
