Perfect for high energy dogs - Kingston
“Cassie is absolutely wonderful. She has a calm spirit and was great with my puppy. She's excited to see Cassie everytime we visit. I got pictures, video and even a little training for my puppy. If you're looking for someone professional and who will take great care of you dog, Cassie should be your first choice.”
“My dog loves this woman. She did a few drop-in visits for us prior to in-home daycare. We pulled up to her home and, when she saw Chelsey, my timid pup went trotting into Chelsey’s house like she forgot I existed (she was excited to see me at pickup, so no hard feelings lol). Have already booked her again!”

“Brandi did a great job with Rocky. It was his first time with a sitter and I was very apprehensive about how well he would settle in. He ate, pottied, played, napped and had a good time. Brandi communicated throughout the day and really made me feel more comfortable that she was taking good care of him. I would not hesitate to book with her again. Thank you Brandi.”
“Aliyah was very kind, accommodating I book last minute and she still told my babies, they had a great time came home and went to straight to sleep. I would recommend and definitely will be booking again.”

“Mandy was very easy to work with when making arrangements for daycare and was very welcoming of our pup. I received updates throughout the day which were greatly appreciated. You won’t go wrong with Mandy.”
“Charles was awesome and took very good care of Tucker. We were in town for a tournament and he was very understanding when our last game ran into double overtime causing us to be 1/2hr late for pick up. It seemed that our pup didn’t travel too well and had a sensitive stomach during his stay, Charles took very good care of Tucker despite his stomach upset. Very grateful he was in good hands!”

They have beautiful spirits and great energy to be around. I look forward for Paco to go over there again and again !!”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, so caring for them comes very naturally to me. I have years of experience walking dogs in my neighborhood. I’d love the chance to get to know and care for your dogs too! When I was younger I volunteered with the Humane Society and also spent time fostering both dogs and cats whenever I could. Doing that has taught me a lot about caring for animals of all ages, and personalities. Senior dogs especially have my heart. My own dog lived to be 18 years old, so I understand the extra care, patience, and attention older dogs sometimes need. I also have experience caring for blind and hard of hearing dogs, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. No matter if your pet is young and energetic or a sweet senior, I’ll treat them like they’re my own and make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and care while they’re with me! I currently just moved here, I’m available full time everyday to care for your pet at my home! They will get endless love and attention from me I have a fenced yard and two small dogs of my own, one is very playful! If your dog is used to walks I can also take them for walks in my neighborhood.I’ve also pet sat for several families back in my hometown and love caring for dogs. I have a small covered area where my dogs can go potty, helping keep them safe from hawks and coyotes. Your dog’s safety and comfort will always be my top priority. Dogs are treated like family in my home. They’re welcome on the furniture and can sleep on the bed if that’s what they’re used to. Your pup will get lots of love, attention, and care while they’re with me!
“Heather was great! She was very flexible and accommodating to my schedule especially on short notice. She took care of my frenchie Papi for daycare over the course of two days. She sent plenty of pictures and kept me well updated. Her two dogs played very well with him and Papi was wore out, which is exactly what I wanted!”
“Mrs. Chelly and Mr. Joe are an absolute pleasure to be with! I can already tell that they are going to provide continuous top level care for my puppy while she’s with them. Absolutely going to be taking her back. Thank you Mrs. Chelly and Mr. Joe! I’ll be seeing y’all again very soon!”
“Tahtyana and her family were great! We booked doggy daycare for our Great Dane, Kiera to have some company on days when we work late.. She was so cheerful when we picked her up, and it’s very clear that she enjoyed her time there. We will definitely come back!”
About: I have always had a passion for animals. I got my first dog (bojangles) when I was 11 and instantly fell in love! After getting my dog I started watching friends and families fur babies. I have plenty of senior dog training since my first dog is now an old man. I also have plenty of puppy training since my one golden doodle Higgins is not even a year old yet. If you’re anything like me you consider your pets part of your family. When watching/taking care of your pet, I’ll make them part of mine. I’ll give them all the love and cuddles they need until you can get back to them! I am currently a full time online student. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to stay home and have open availability. I spend about 5 hours a day on school which I break up throughout the day in order to spend time,watch, and play with your fur baby! In my home: I have a secure fenced in yard. I do all of my school work downstairs and keep a baby gate in front of stairs to ensure they’re close by. I like to try and never leave home when caring for fur babies. If I do need to leave I will always let you know ahead of time, if that’s something you’re comfortable with. I make sure my home is always clean and everything is put away to ensure the safety of your fur baby. I always make sure to keep you updated on how your baby is doing! At clients home: I always prefer to do a home walk though. I take notes of fur babies daily routine. I always make sure to keep you updated about how your baby is doing!
“Very warm, friendly and caring sitters. My first time using a sitter and were not sure if Bella would adjust. I must say before leaving her in the care of Kimberly I could feel and see the love and kindness coming from her. Bella seems so at home on the pictures that were text to me during her stay there. I will definitely book with her the next time I need a sitter and if Bella need to be board.”
“Karen is amazing with my dog when he stays with her for daycare. She is very patient and is always able to make sure he is comfortable and happy. She also takes the time to play with him and make sure he is having fun. I always feel confident leaving my dog with her knowing he is in good hands.”

About: I grew up with pitbulls, blue heelers, and cats. I currently have two fur babies named Theodore and Jax (who are living a 5 star luxury life 🐾). My friends reach out to me if they need help with caring for their doggies. I’m trustworthy and will respect your instructions! I will not do anything or give anything to your pup unless it’s specifically stated beforehand or I ask you first. I do not have children so it’s easy for me to be flexible in caring for your baby! I will provide loving care, and most of all, keep you updated and send plenty of photos to give you the reassurance that your pup is safe and cared for. I LOVE plants, so if there’s any plants you need watered while you’re away, I’d happily do so! I currently do not work. I mostly tend to my fur babies or my garden most days. I am doing college online but it is very flexible. My schedule is pretty flexible! Unfortunately, I cannot take care of animals in my home. We are renting and our lease states we have to have prior approval and charge a fee if another animal will be residing with us. My corgi (Theodore) is a bit of an introvert as well and does not enjoy other animals (other than Jax) in his space. I am able to drive and take care of your pet in your home! I don’t mind taking multiple trips if that will put you at ease about your pet!

Once they’re done I will play with them enough to tire them out so they have a nice long nap before I return to visit them again :)
“Monica took great care of our dogs while we were out of town. She was very punctual and the dogs loved her. We have some webcams to keep an eye on the doggies when we are out and they were always excited when Monica arrived.”
About: I have always had at least two dogs in the house, everything from Golden Retrievers to Great Danes. I have also been dogsitting for friends for the past few years, including walking, feeding, and playing around with them for days at a time. I am a sophomore college student, so I am happy to watch dogs around my class schedule. Currently, I am taking classes Monday - Friday morning, but I am fully available on the weekends and in the afternoons after class. While I am there, I normally let the dogs out and play around for a little while, or take them for a walk. I will make sure any messes they make are clean, and that they have a clean and tidy area. I fill up their water, feed them, and give them any medications or treats they may need. I am happy to do anything you need me to do for your fur baby! I will also give you regular updates, and I will keep your number on standby should anything happen.
About: I’ve cared for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities—from playful puppies to gentle seniors. I specialize in giving animals individualized attention, keeping routines consistent, and making sure they feel loved and safe. Whether it’s walks, feedings, medications, or snuggles, I care for each pet as if they were my own. I’m also experienced with shy or anxious pets and work hard to make them feel at ease. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life. I schedule my day around the needs of the pets in my care—whether that means morning walks, midday drop-ins, or overnight stays. I’m flexible and committed to maintaining consistent routines, which helps pets feel secure. I prioritize communication with pet owners and make sure each visit is on time and tailored to the pet’s schedule. When caring for pets in my home, I create a calm, clean, and secure environment free of hazards, with close supervision and plenty of enrichment. In a client’s home, I follow their instructions closely to keep pets comfortable in their familiar space. I respect the home and the pet’s routine, keep doors and gates secure, and provide regular updates so pet parents feel confident and informed. Safety and trust are at the core of how I care for every animal.
About: How owners want there furry friends to be loved is how they will be expected and treated the best way possible! They will be cared for in the best way possible.

While you take some time away from home to work, vacation, and everything in between, you can always reach out to me to know your pets will be in loving hands! I’m a preschool teacher, so I work 8-2 Monday through Friday! I can offer care before or after those times and on weekends as well. I have a car and a flexible schedule! Starting in mid-May, I will be on summer break until August 10th. This means I will have even more time to spend with your pets while you travel or work! When it comes to taking care of your pets while you’re away, I will gladly drop in or stay at your home. Whenever I’m not working, I want to be with your pets; giving ample amounts of love and play time! I'm comfortable with crating animals if necessary, but I also adore pets who love cuddles and sharing a bed. I also have experience keeping pets safe in a fenced in yard.

Genesis gave me updates and sent me pictures of Maxi, which calmed my nerves. 10/10 would definitely book again!”

About: Hi! I’m a psychology major at Augusta University and currently work as an RBT supporting autistic children, which has made me patient, attentive, and very comfortable building trust through positive reinforcement. I’ve loved dogs my entire life, especially after owning and training my German Shepherd for 8 years, and I now have a puppy of my own who keeps me enjoying daily walks, park time, and training every day. (For boarding, she would stay with my family so your pet would have my full attention and a calm space.) I especially like working on basic positive reinforcement with treats or a clicker when wanted. I love petting and getting to know every dog I see, so any chance to spend time with dogs is something I genuinely enjoy. I have open availability! Sometimes I may have an appointment or time commitment, but generally I am free throughout the week. I don’t have any scheduling or preference issues with overnight, extended, or evening hours either. I live in a townhome with a fenced patio. The patio has dirt/grass for going potty, a concrete center, and a backdoor that opens to a walking path. I have two floors with the bottom floor being hardwood (accident friendly!). For crate-preferred pets I have a 48in kennel (deep cleaned before and after use), or if crate-averse there is a guest bedroom that would be situated. I bring my own doggy bags and leash, but can use whatever is preferred. If desired I also have Buddy Trainers mini training treats that can be used for positively reinforcing your pet. My default approach is to focus primarily on your pet’s comfort rather than training, with the option of passive training being added into that approach. If boarding, I could take your pet on walks around the very dog-pro community where there are consistently opportunities to socialize, explore, and play in the paths available. Also with boarding my puppy would not share the space and would be at my family’s throughout your pet’s stay. Regardless of whether your pet is boarding at my home or if sitting at your’s, I have no problem deep (and properly) cleaning any accidents that come up. My approach with all pets, especially dogs, is positive reinforcement through doing things they enjoy. I try to set your pet up for success by matching their energy and minimizing any reason to feel anxious, sized up, or uncomfortable in general.
“Samantha and Cole were amazing with my dog! From the moment we met, I felt completely comfortable leaving my pup in their care. They sent regular updates and the sweetest photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My dog looked so happy and relaxed in every picture, it was clear they treated him right like one of their own. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I’ll definitely be booking with them again!”
“THE BEST PET SITTER!! Alexcis is the absolute best pet sitter we have ever had. Our pup loved her from the very first moment. She exercised great control while keeping it fun and the animals engaged. I am absolutely convinced that our dog Scout had an amazing time with Alexcis and Sky and all of the new fur friends that he made. Alexcis sent me lots of pictures and kept me updated on how Scout was doing which was a nice touch. She is the only pet sitter that I will book with moving forward.”
