“Patrick was absolutely wonderful with our “new-to-us” dog, who is still working through some behavior things. From the moment we met him, we immediately felt confident that our dog would be well cared for—his calm demeanor, clear experience, and the way he treats his own animals truly stood out. Patrick was very communicative throughout the stay, which gave us great peace of mind. He has a fantastic space and clearly spends a lot of quality time with the animals in his care. We’re so grateful for his patience and understanding and would wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone looking for a thoughtful, attentive dog sitter.”
“They did a great job with out two Dalmatians! They seemed very happy at their home. He sent us photos each day of the dogs and promptly responded when we checked in with him. I would highly recommend.”
“Jillian was a wonderful dog sitter! We got lots of photos every day, and our dog looked right at home with her. Our dog got lots of exercise, play time, and snuggles! We would book with Jillian again!”
“Kajsa and family not only were able to board my dog Jedi with short notice, but they took wonderful care of him. He got to play with their dogs and came home happy from his visit!!”
“Riley was so happy with Dalia and Dainius and their daughter Milda! I’m sure she hardly missed me at all between their walks and play time. 😊 It was also wonderful how accommodating they were to watch her less than a week out! Highly recommend!”
“Katya and Kyle took such amazing care of our Barley while we were out of town for 9 days! Their two dogs are so sweet and were the perfect companions for Barley to play with in their large yard. Katya and Kyle are very active and took the dogs on lots of walks and gave Barley plenty of exercise while we were away. Katya sent photos every day and made us feel that Barley was right at home. We already have talked about booking with Katya again when we are out of town next!”
“This was Stanley & Nelly Jo's second visit with Austin! Can't say enough good things about our experiences with her care. Wonderful to have peace of mind while we are away from our four legged kids!!”
“Laurel and her family took great care of our dog! We received daily pics and knew he was getting lots of love, attention and playtime with their dogs! We will definitely rebook with laurel for future needs!”
“We had such a great experience with Elizabeth! Our dog Mae had an absolute blast—she came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. Elizabeth was fantastic throughout the entire stay, providing daily photo and video updates that really put our minds at ease. It was so nice to see Mae having so much fun! We truly appreciated the communication and care, and we’ll definitely book again if we need care again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Darcy & her kids took great care of my two pups while I was on vacation. Photos everyday to reassure they were well & very happy pups on return. Thanks for taking good care of them.”
“As always, Lindsey was awesome! My flight was diverted and delayed and she was kind, patient and accommodating. Always a pleasure having her take care of my sweet, cuddly boys!”
“I highly recommend Jessica for anyone needing to board their pup! First - she only accepts one visiting dog, which for us was an absolute must. More importantly, she is kind, caring, and knows how precious your fur baby is to you! We found Jessica to be most accomodating and flexible throughout Jasper's time with her, and she is most definitely a gem among all of the wonderful choices in the area. Thanks Jessica!”
“Leesa was absolutely amazing! She was incredibly kind, reassuring and attentive. I was frequently updated with cute pictures, videos and messages - especially because she could sympathize with my anxiety as it was my first time leaving my pup for vacation. I would absolutely recommend her for all of your puppy sitting needs!”
“So happy we found Rachel and Sean and their pups. Great experience from start to finish. Amazing communication keeping us up to date throughout the stay with pics and videos. Blu had a great time making new friends. Highly recommend and would definately book again .”
“My dog and I love Stacey, she always takes her on long walks and sends me great pictures! This was my second time booking with her and I will be rebooking whenever I need someone to watch my dog!”

“Richard did a wonderful job on the drop-in visits. He proved himself to be a real neighbor, spending time with my senior dogs and making sure they eat their meals. When thunderstorms came through, knowing how jittery they get, he made sure they were safe and in the house until the storms blew through. Thank you, Richard! You helped out in so many ways, all the reviews I’ve read about you were all true! Looking forward to letting you take care of my girls the next time!”
“Our two cats do not get along. Despite their territorial spats, Patrick has somehow managed to get our trouble makers to play nice! I am astounded to come home from our trips to find the cats as best buddies. Our home is automated for food and water, but the mental stimulation from quality playtime is something you cannot simulate from a machine. According to our two cats, they give him 4 paws up! You can expect from Patrick a sitter that follows directions, thoughtful comments, excellent photos, and reliable availability. Thank you!”
“Kevin was fantastic! It seemed that Tigger was pretty happy with Kevin as well. He doesn’t usually become an almost lap cat with anyone except my husband and I, but Tigger let Kevin join the club too. We came home to a wonderfully clean house as well. Kevin sent us photos and texts everyday to let us know how things were going. This is the first time we had left Tigger with anyone except family. We have already reserved Kevin to watch Tigger for our next cruise.”
About: Since as long as I can remember, I’ve always had a cat in my life. My mom has actually showed me pictures of our cat in the crib with me when I was a baby. Cats have always had a place in my heart and home.
“As always, Erika is amazing !! She takes great care of of my little girl, and Moumou loves her ! She made arrangements to check in on Moumou at the last minute, which was so appreciated.”
“I don’t even know where to begin. Tarryn is an absolute gem and our fur babies ADORE her! Communication is quick and concise. She sent a picture when our doggo got settled into her home and little updates throughout their time together. Our doggo is a big love bug and she embraced that entirely! She checked on our home and our kitties too. I had complete peace leaving her in charge of our fur babies and home while we were away and I will not hesitate to contact her again and again! 100/10 recommend!”

Prices are estimates per day for 1 dog. Pricing may vary based on your search and includes a booking fee of 11%.
“I was worried because our Gunnar is still in his puppy phase. He received outstanding care and came home tired every night. When I need doggie daycare again, I will certainly choose Wes and Kimberly. Thank you for taking such good care of our boy!”
“I really appreciate having Lindsey as a sitter! I have an older dog who would get anxious to the point of physical exhaustion at other dog sitters and commercial boarding places. It got to the point where one time I went to pick her up and she literally could not walk. Lindsey has senior dog experience and is home most of the time, which gives me confidence that my dog will have someone around to keep her company and won't get too anxious or worried. She's also been helpful in working with me on getting my dog acclimated to her house and easing her into the new environment. I'm very thankful for having an experienced and caring sitter to look after my dog!”
About: The beautiful atmosphere here at Ranch Itty Bitty provides lots of loving care, safety and walks on quiet country roads. All visitors love it here. I am nearly 100% retired and enjoy spending time with loving animals while their human family spends time away. I work hard to make sure their time is as precious as yours and mine. Since my two sweet pups traveled over the rainbow bridge, I have found joy in caring for pups of other families. While I miss my own, I adore the company of dogs and have found this experience absolutely perfect for my life. I have a big fenced yard if you need boarding services. I am extremely caring, respectful and have oodles of references to let you know you are hiring the best of care for your furry loved ones.
“She responded within minutes. We had an emergency where we needed someone to watch our baby girl for a couple of hours. It was a short notice and Christine saved the day. Thanks again.”
About: We can transport your furry friend(s) to my home and back to yours from 8:30a to 6:30p. I’ve owned at least one dog since I was 10 and loved everyone that has came into my life. From walking, to playing, to bathing (most of the time both of us by the end of it lol) it was a joy. I do have experience caring for senior dogs and puppies. I can administer oral medication. Currently I am staying at home full time as I just had my baby at the end of October ‘25. Have occasional doctors appointments during the week or random errands. There will be very limited time pups are left unattended. My husband also helps with the dogs and can sometimes take them to the dog park in Wellington or Ault. I have a new baby as of the end of October and have 2 female dogs in the home, one is 2.5 and the other is 13, the older one sticks to herself mostly but sometimes regulates the puppies and tells them to slow it down. Both are very well socialized and do not have any issues with other dogs. We can set up a time to do a meet and greet or work through a plan of separation (if necessary!! Normally it is not) which I have practiced and am set up for. I have my backyard spilt into 2 runs as well as an isolation pen. This is to help with any entrance excitement. If a dog is really pushy at the gate they’ll be put into a different section of fencing so they don’t push out. We have plenty of toys here, and ask that bones are not brought with to prevent any issues.
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life. Always loved all animals but dogs really are my favorite. I’ve had them as pets and cared for them for others for decades. When I used to deliver pizzas people always commented how their dogs didn’t usually like men or people or any number of other reasons but they were surprised how much their dog seemed to like me. Eventually I may own a doggy day care, and would love to actually start a rescue for animals. I’m currently pretty flexible. I wax recently disabled and was unemployed while waiting for surgery. Now no longer disabled but have plenty of flexibility to cover many needs your furry family member may have. I recently lost a lot of weight by just walking so I’d love to continue to get my steps in with your dogs. Dogs would be welcome to come to my house where I do have two elderly big boys of my own. They generally are froendly but if your dog is high energy it may not be a good fit. My oldest one is literally the guy to tell hyper dogs to get off his lawn
“Excellent! Duke seemed super happy and excited and I plan to have him stay at rebekahs again in the future! She sent me pics throughout the day and let me know how he was doing.”

“I know Asher feels comfortable with you (and not anxious) when he poops on your walks with him! 😄 he doesn’t do that for everyone so to me that is a great sign!! 😍😍”
“Jen was excellent. She was prepared for our visit and sent us lots of updates throughout the day. She took such excellent care of our puppy. We will definitely use her again. She is lovely.”
“Andrew has cared for our 1 year old Great Dane twice now and she always comes back happy and tired! He keeps us well updated with how she is doing and she is obviously well loved and cared for when she gets to visit. We will be continuing to use Andrew in the future and can’t speak more highly to his care and compassion for Millie and animals in general.”
“Rachel has been great with husky Cherry! She has been so flexible with my schedule and she goes above and beyond with making sure Cherry gets plenty of exercise and play time. Cherry is always so happy to get to her house and is content when she comes home.”
“I just couldn't be more pleased with my pup's 1st stay at Laurel's place. She is so kind and pleasant and has everything set up perfectly for her visiting dogs. Her family and her 2 dogs are equally welcoming. We will be back, I am sure!”

About: Loving animals is about forming meaningful connections with creatures who provide companionship, loyalty, and joy. Pets often offer unconditional love, and caring for them can be deeply rewarding. I have been taking care of people's pets, even my own, since I was around 14 years old. I have loved animals my whole life and I am excited to help you and your fur babies!

About: Es indescriptible con pocas palabras el amor tan grande que siento por todos los animales, en especial por los perros, tengo 42 años y toda mi vida siempre he tenido a mi lado un perrito, así que cuento con la capacidad de saber entender sus necesidades básicas, cuando tienen sed, hambre, quieren jugar o tienen alguna molestia, ese amor y entendimiento me permiten considerar que cuento con la capacidad y la dedicación para hacer este hermoso trabajo que además me hace feliz. Trabajo los fines de semana de viernes a domingo, pero cuento con total disponibilidad para cuidar a tus peludos de lunes a jueves en el horario que necesites de mi apoyo en el cuidado de ellos. Tengo un jardín, no cuenta con valla en este momento pero puedo sacarlo con su collar, si prefieres que lo cuide en tu casa, también podré hacerlo, tengo en mi casa una perrita pug, ella es muy juguetona y amigable, puede llevarse bien con otros perritos, pero yo me adapto a las condiciones que a ti como papá o mamá perruna, te parezcan mejor para que el peludito esté seguro y feliz, durante el tiempo que vaya a compartir conmigo.
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments, from energetic puppies to sweet senior dogs who need a little extra patience and support. I’m comfortable with large breeds, high-energy dogs, and those who may need a slower, calmer approach. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, loved, and right at home while you’re away. I have experience reinforcing basic training like leash manners, crate training, and simple commands such as sit, stay, and recall. For puppies, I focus on consistency and positive reinforcement to help maintain the routines you’ve worked hard to establish. For senior dogs, I provide gentle care, slower-paced walks, and close attention to comfort and mobility needs. What Sets Me Apart What makes me different is the level of attention and communication I provide. I treat every pet like family, not just a booking. You can expect regular updates, photos, and honest communication so you always know how your pet is doing. I’m dependable, patient, and detail-oriented. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any special routines your pet relies on. Whether your dog needs extra exercise, extra structure, or extra cuddles, I adjust my care to fit their personality and needs. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. 🐾 I work from home and I am available any day of the week. I can do walks or drop in visits anytime of the day. I am flexible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. Whether caring for pets in my home or yours, I focus on creating a calm, structured, and secure environment where they can relax and feel at ease. In My Home: I provide a clean, pet-safe space free of hazards, with plenty of room to rest and play. Pets are always supervised, and introductions (if applicable) are done slowly and carefully. I follow your dog’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, crate use, walk times, and bedtime habits to reduce stress and keep things consistent. Fresh water is always available, and I monitor behavior closely to ensure they’re comfortable and adjusting well. In Your Home (Drop-Ins/House Sitting): I respect your space and maintain your pet’s routine exactly as instructed. I ensure doors, gates, and crates are securely closed, leashes are properly fitted before walks, and pets are never left unattended in unsafe situations. After each visit, I double-check that everything is locked and secure. You’ll receive regular updates and photos for peace of mind. I’m attentive, detail-oriented, and proactive. If something seems off, changes in appetite, behavior, or energy; I communicate immediately. My goal is for you to feel completely confident that your pet is safe, cared for, and genuinely loved while you’re away.

I care for pets by creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment whether I’m in my home or yours. I stick closely to their normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and rest, so they feel secure and stress-free. I always make sure they have plenty of attention, exercise, and affection throughout the day. In a client’s home, I respect your space while keeping your pet’s environment clean and familiar. My goal is to make your pet feel as relaxed and cared for as possible, just like you never left.
“Thank you for the notes, she started reacting to the treats I give her so I won't be giving her those anymore. I will setup the recurring walks tonight. Thank you for your services.”
About: I’ve had the pleasure to grow up with dogs and started learning the responsibility at a young age. I began watching pets outside of my family at the age of 13, doing both over nights and drop in visits. One of the dogs I grew up with is extremely anxious and emotionally in-tune. Growing up alongside her gifted me the skills of compassion and the recognition of the importance of comfort and trust. I am completing my teaching residency, meaning I work a typical school schedule 8-2:30 4 days a week, as I am in residency I also have the availability to be flexible, meaning your fur babies will not be alone that full 8 hours, as I come home on lunch breaks and can walk the pups on free periods. During breaks (Summer, Winter, and Fall) I have full availability! Please reach out if you have any questions or if this feels as though it may be a concern and we can work something out. Your pets safety and comfort are my two most important priorities, whatever that may look like. A special part of my schedule is it allows me to be there for a majority of the day (if that feels right for you) and all of the evening. Your home and fur babies will be well loved and looked after.

“Patrick was absolutely wonderful with our “new-to-us” dog, who is still working through some behavior things. From the moment we met him, we immediately felt confident that our dog would be well cared for—his calm demeanor, clear experience, and the way he treats his own animals truly stood out. Patrick was very communicative throughout the stay, which gave us great peace of mind. He has a fantastic space and clearly spends a lot of quality time with the animals in his care. We’re so grateful for his patience and understanding and would wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone looking for a thoughtful, attentive dog sitter.”
“They did a great job with out two Dalmatians! They seemed very happy at their home. He sent us photos each day of the dogs and promptly responded when we checked in with him. I would highly recommend.”
“Jillian was a wonderful dog sitter! We got lots of photos every day, and our dog looked right at home with her. Our dog got lots of exercise, play time, and snuggles! We would book with Jillian again!”
“Kajsa and family not only were able to board my dog Jedi with short notice, but they took wonderful care of him. He got to play with their dogs and came home happy from his visit!!”
“Riley was so happy with Dalia and Dainius and their daughter Milda! I’m sure she hardly missed me at all between their walks and play time. 😊 It was also wonderful how accommodating they were to watch her less than a week out! Highly recommend!”
“Katya and Kyle took such amazing care of our Barley while we were out of town for 9 days! Their two dogs are so sweet and were the perfect companions for Barley to play with in their large yard. Katya and Kyle are very active and took the dogs on lots of walks and gave Barley plenty of exercise while we were away. Katya sent photos every day and made us feel that Barley was right at home. We already have talked about booking with Katya again when we are out of town next!”
“This was Stanley & Nelly Jo's second visit with Austin! Can't say enough good things about our experiences with her care. Wonderful to have peace of mind while we are away from our four legged kids!!”
“Darcy & her kids took great care of my two pups while I was on vacation. Photos everyday to reassure they were well & very happy pups on return. Thanks for taking good care of them.”
“As always, Lindsey was awesome! My flight was diverted and delayed and she was kind, patient and accommodating. Always a pleasure having her take care of my sweet, cuddly boys!”
“I highly recommend Jessica for anyone needing to board their pup! First - she only accepts one visiting dog, which for us was an absolute must. More importantly, she is kind, caring, and knows how precious your fur baby is to you! We found Jessica to be most accomodating and flexible throughout Jasper's time with her, and she is most definitely a gem among all of the wonderful choices in the area. Thanks Jessica!”
“Leesa was absolutely amazing! She was incredibly kind, reassuring and attentive. I was frequently updated with cute pictures, videos and messages - especially because she could sympathize with my anxiety as it was my first time leaving my pup for vacation. I would absolutely recommend her for all of your puppy sitting needs!”
“So happy we found Rachel and Sean and their pups. Great experience from start to finish. Amazing communication keeping us up to date throughout the stay with pics and videos. Blu had a great time making new friends. Highly recommend and would definately book again .”
“My dog and I love Stacey, she always takes her on long walks and sends me great pictures! This was my second time booking with her and I will be rebooking whenever I need someone to watch my dog!”
“Highly recommend! My dog was right at home here. They sent daily updates and were great with communication. Will definitely book with them again next time I go out of town.”
“Thanks so much Erika! You did an amazing job taking care of our puppy while we were away. Great job on the communication side which made me feel so much better and more comfortable. You are the best and I will always use you from now on. Highly recommend!!”
“We felt absolutely at peace knowing our sweet Ripley girl was in such good hands at Andrew's house. We typically are nervous about having to board her at new places, but not this time. Andrew took such great care of her and kept us updated during our trip away with great pictures. She was able to play with other dogs outside on their property during her stay and then relax and continue playing inside with the other pups. We would absolutely love to bring Ripley back for our next trip.”
