I would absolutely trust her to watch Mochi again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter!”

The kids will be going back for more farm vacations in the future, in fact their next stay is only weeks away.”
“Sara was absolutely amazing with my Shih Tzu, Chloe. From the moment we met her, her personality was so warm and kind, and it immediately made me feel comfortable leaving Chloe in her care. She kept me updated and treated Chloe like she was her own.

About: I am a former manager at a daycare and boarding facility, I have administered diabetes shots and other medications for animals. I plan to own my own daycare boarding facility in the future. Helping others and working with animals has always been my passion, I initially went to college for veterinary but decided that it wasn’t for me that a Daycare facility was best suited for me and my personality. I currently am a manager at a restaurant I can walk pets before 5:30 am but it didn’t give the option and anytime after 4 pm. I have three friendly dogs who are very socialized they go to doggy daycare and one elderly cat who is 16 and our yard is fenced in and I live down the street from a dog park as well!

About: I’ve been caring for cats for several years and currently have 4 cats of my own, so I understand that every cat has a unique personality and routine. Whether your cat is playful, shy, or prefers their own space, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. During every visit, I’ll provide fresh food and water, clean the litter box, give plenty of love and attention (if they want it!), and send you updates with photos so you can have peace of mind. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I’ll care for your cats as if they were my own
About: My childhood cat developed several health issues in her senior years (Kidney Disease, Arthritis, UTIs), and I helped care for her through monthly vet visits and multiple medications, giving me first hand experience with the extra patience and attention senior cats often need. My family also added a friendly tuxedo kitten to the bunch and my boyfriend has a shy cat as well. So I am comfortable interacting with both outgoing and more reserved feline personalities. I understand every cat has their comfort level, so I let them set the pace while making sure they feel safe.
“Emma did a wonderful job looking after Florence and Reddington while we were away. This was the first time for them since we moved and Emma took the time and had the patience to spend the time they needed to get to know her - Red is always friendly but Florence is very nervous usually so making friends by the last day shows how much care and effort Emma put in. I would absolutely recommend Emma to look after your feline friends!”

“More than anything, we wanted a big, open yard. Larry has a fabulous yard! Scruff had a great time! Larry's a perfect dog person..relaxed, easygoing, doesn't get excited about much. Scruff jumped up to Larry's lap and said, "How about I come play with Jackson?" We will work out a nice playdate schedule for Jackson and Scruff.”
“Renee was an amazing sitter for our pup! She was kind, attentive, and truly treated him like one of her own. A great bonus was that her dog was nice playmate, which kept our pup happy and entertained. She sent photos and videos throughout the stay, which we really appreciated. We also ended up needing a little extra time for pickup, and Renee was incredibly accommodating and flexible. We’re so grateful for her care and would definitely book with her again!”

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have cared for pets belonging to family, friends, and neighbors over the years. Through those experiences I’ve learned that every dog has a different personality, routine, and comfort level, and I always try to make them feel safe and at home. I’ve also cared for senior dogs, including administering injectable medication to my own dog when she became diabetic, which taught me patience, attention to detail, and the importance of following care instructions carefully. Whether your dog is energetic or prefers a quiet environment, I’ll provide attentive care, regular walks, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of updates so you can feel confident while you’re away. Our schedules allow us to provide pets with plenty of attention and companionship throughout their stay. While there may be times when pets are home alone, we typically plan our schedules so they are not left alone for more than about 4 hours at a time. We plan around each booking as much as possible to maintain your pet’s normal routine, including feeding times, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and rest. We’re always happy to discuss your pet’s routine and supervision needs before. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a clean, calm, and organized home where every pet receives individual attention. Before each stay, I take time to learn your pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs so I can provide the best possible care. Since I don’t have a fenced yard, every walk and potty break is supervised, and I never leave pets outside unattended. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages throughout their stay so you always know how they’re doing.

“Graceann and her mom were awesome! Terrific communication prior to scheduled petsit and the day of. It’s always hard to leave your fur baby with people you haven’t met before, but we felt very comfortable and felt confident our little pup would be well taken care of. He had a wonderful time and made new friends☺️. I would not hesitate to use Graceann again if I’m in the area! 5 stars!!”

About: I have watched many dogs before and families have always loved me. I am very energetic and can get outside and do play time. I’m also very gentle and know how to handle calm dogs that like to cuddle. I have also worked at hot paws playing with dogs outside, cleaning kennels, changing food and water etc. I am an at home mother to a 1 1/2 year old who loves puppies. I am free Monday-Sunday. I do prefer to be home during the night but it can change sometimes so just ask if that’s what you need. I do not have a fenced in property so dogs will have to be walked on a leash outside if staying at my home. I will take dogs to potty every 1-2 hours. I can put dog in crate if preferred or they can run free in the home and play. They can also jump on my bed/couch if they want to relax, unless otherwise asked not to teach them that is okay. Anything you ask of your dog will be done.
“This was the first time that we used Rover and first time that we boarded our dog. Lisa was so welcoming and greeted us at the door. I noticed immediately that the area was clean and dog proofed. They have a lovely fenced in backyard and a screened porch so Bowie was free to move back and forth on his own. Lisa knew that I was nervous and kept in regular touch with me and sent me updates with photos and videos. There were also a sweet black lab friend that Bowie got along with very well. I would not hesitate to use Lisa again and I recommend her highly! Thank you Lisa. Bowie told me had a good time but he is happy to be back with us. 😊🥰❤️”

I’ve also fostered many kittens and puppies and I currently have 2 dogs and 2 cats, the majority rescues. I’m a huge animal lover! I am mostly a stay at home mom with 4 pets. We take the dogs on daily walks and sometimes to the park. We are always spending time outdoors in our spacious back yard with our dogs running around and cats climbing trees and roofs and such! I have 2 dogs and 2 cats both very friendly if spending time together! I also have a fenced in yard with a garden. I have a separate indoor petroom stocked with a couple crates (if needed for my big dog), enclosed cat litter boxes, a large cat climbing tree, plenty of pet food and treats, many water bowls and toys for all! And a very family friendly neighborhood for walks and a spacious (not fenced) park as well.
About: I've been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. Growing up I had two Lhasa Apso pups and two cats so caring for pets has been a big part of my life. As they got older, I helped give them their medications and make them feel comfortable. Over the years, my family has added three pups - two Toy Poodles and one Shih Tzu, who I have helped raised since they were puppies. I also have two of my own: an Australian Shepherd and a Bernese Mountain Dog, both whom I have raised since they were 8 weeks old. Through them, I have lots of experience in puppy training and recognizing that each pup is unique and has different needs. I also have experience caring for cats. My childhood cat developed health issues in her senior years, and I helped care for her through monthly vet visits and multiple medications, giving me first hand experience with the extra patience and attention senior cats need. My family also added a friendly tuxedo kitten to the bunch and my boyfriend has a shy cat as well. So I am comfortable caring for cats with outgoing or more reserved feline personalities. I understand that every pet has different needs, and I always strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they're in my care. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, shy and cautious, or a senior needing extra patience, I'll care for them as if they were my own. I have plenty of time to look after your pup or feline! While I prefer to watch your pet between 8-5 so I can also spend time with my own pets, I understand there are times after work or on the weekends when you need to leave your furry friend to go and enjoy yourself without feeling guilty leaving them behind. In these cases, I can absolutely make exceptions. Every pet has their own routine, preferences, and unique needs so I will take the time to follow your care instructions closely. Whether that's sticking to a feeding schedule, administering medications, or going on walks, I will make sure your pet's routine stays as consistent as possible. My goal is to help your pet feel safe and give you peace of mind knowing your pet is cared for and loved while you're away. I'll care for them the way you ask while also treating them with the same affection and attention I give my own pets. I understand how important it is to trust someone with a member of your family, so I will do everything to care for them!
About: With over six years of hands-on experience working with dogs and their families, I understand that every pet has a unique personality, routine, and set of needs. My goal is to provide compassionate, dependable care that helps pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving their owners complete peace of mind. My experience includes caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds, and temperaments—from energetic puppies to senior dogs and those who need extra patience and attention. I believe in using positive, calm interactions to build trust and help every dog feel secure. Whether I’m taking your dog on a walk, providing drop-in visits, or caring for them while you’re away, I’ll treat them as if they were my own. I pay close attention to routines, exercise, feeding schedules, medications, and the little details that help pets feel at home. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family member. You can expect reliable communication, regular updates, photos, and the confidence that your pet is receiving attentive, loving care every step of the way. I’m currently working part-time so I am available to work with and care for your pets. Also, available on weekends at any time of the day. I have Dog Training experience for 6 years so I know how to help work with your dog on enforcing positive basic commands and help prevent unwanted behavior including anxiety.

Because of her we were able to enjoy a very special family wedding. Words can’t express how much our heart appreciated her time!!”

About: I have watched many dogs before and families have always loved me. I am very energetic and can get outside and do play time. I’m also very gentle and know how to handle calm dogs that like to cuddle. I have also worked at hot paws playing with dogs outside, cleaning kennels, changing food and water etc. I am an at home mother to a 1 1/2 year old who loves puppies. I am free Monday-Sunday. I do prefer to be home during the night but it can change sometimes so just ask if that’s what you need. I do not have a fenced in property so dogs will have to be walked on a leash outside if staying at my home. I will take dogs to potty every 1-2 hours. I can put dog in crate if preferred or they can run free in the home and play. They can also jump on my bed/couch if they want to relax, unless otherwise asked not to teach them that is okay. Anything you ask of your dog will be done.

“I’m so happy to have found Uriaha and his wife to watch Cooper. They took wonderful care of him and sent me updates and photos every day. Cooper has so much energy, and Uriaha made sure he got his daily walks and plenty of playtime. Having them care for Cooper gave me peace of mind whenever I needed to travel. I'm so happy to have found a true home away from home for Cooper. I highly recommend them and would gladly book with them again!”

“We've known Kelly for over 9 years, we knew our fur kids would be in great hands staying with her. She treated Lakota and Koa as if they were her own pets. Lakota's allergies flared up while she was staying with Kelly, Kelly instinctively treated her issues and made us aware of what was happening. The kids will be going back for more farm vacations in the future, in fact their next stay is only weeks away.”
“Sara was absolutely amazing with my Shih Tzu, Chloe. From the moment we met her, her personality was so warm and kind, and it immediately made me feel comfortable leaving Chloe in her care. She kept me updated and treated Chloe like she was her own. It meant so much to hear that everyone fell in love with Chloe while she was there—it reassured me that she was getting lots of love and attention. I’m so grateful for the care Sara gave her and would absolutely trust her again in the future. Highly recommend! 🐾💛”

They sent photos and even a video during her stay, and we felt totally at ease that she was 100% well taken care of and given lots of love.”
“I really don’t have the words to explain how amazing my sweet Daisy did with Ms. Alicia and her husband. Ever since adopting Daisy my boyfriend and I have always been really nervous about leaving her with people that she doesn’t know. We did a meet and greet before her stay, she became attached and did very well. They did so much with her (car rides, walks, playtime), sent me pictures and videos throughout our week of being gone. We never once felt nervous or worried that our baby wasn’t loved and cared for. We are so thankful we have found the greatest dog sitter for our sweet baby. If you are looking for a fun, loving, reliable, caring dog sitter, she is the dog sitter for you.”

About: Hey pet parents! My name is Skyla & I have four dogs of my own, Bunny, Ginger, Blue, and Amigo. I have had all my dogs since they were puppies and they are very well behaved and friendly. I have had a strong passion and so much love for dogs since I was little. When your dog boards with me, you have the option to allow them to play with my dogs or stay separate. Regardless-they will get so much affection. I do require food to be supplied by owner so we can avoid any belly aches. They will get lots of attention here, playtime in the yard, & walks if you choose. This will be their home away from home! I can assure you-they will be safe, fed, and happy. Feel free to ask any questions:) My dogs get daily exercise and play time & mental stimulation. Lots of walks around the neighborhood. My job is very flexible so I am home most of the time. I do have one crate available for your dog to stay in if you wish. My home is furnished with plenty of dog toys and treats, so your pup will always be occupied! Fresh water is always available. My pets are allowed on the furniture, so your dog will feel at home.
