“Jessica took great care of our dog during a 4-night stay. Communication was easy, drop-off and pick-up were smooth, and everything went just as expected. Our dog came home happy and well cared for. Would book with her again!”
“Brooke and Andrew were great!! Would highly recommend them to watch your little buddy for you! Really easy going and had flexible hours for pick up and drop off! We’re very communicative and easy to work with, will definitely use them again when we need a sitter for our furry friend!”
“Glacier’s daycare experience with Stephanie went so well that we decided to do an overnight stay with her and it went even better! Glacier is such a hard dog to feed and he ate so easily with Stephanie. He made himself so comfortable at nighttime on her bed which just shows how comfortable he feels with her. It really gives such peace of mind to know my dog feels comfortable in her care!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs my whole life. From puppies to seniors it’s a wonderful journey. I’v been training dogs my whole life, but recently got into more experienced obedience with my newest dog. Taking care of my dogs is the best part of my day, and I want to make it special for your pups too! I currently work part-time so I will have more time to spend with your pups! I’m available Monday-Thursday from 8am-3pm and occasionally on Saturday. I want the best care for your furry friends! I currently own 2 dogs who are crated at night. All pets are fed twice a day (morning and night). I want to make sure your pups get the best from me especially on walks. If we come across hot pavement I always pick up my dogs so they don’t burn their feet (if your pet has shoes, that would be great). If we come across any dogs, ill make plenty of space and distractions so no arguments break out!

“Emmelin was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of my dog and made the whole experience stress-free for both of us. She sent regular updates and the cutest photos, which really put my mind at ease while I was away. My pup came home happy, calm, and clearly well loved. I’m so grateful for the care and attention Emmelin gave- she’s a true gem! I’ll definitely be booking with her again.”

Will definitely use her again She keeps you updated with pictures and texts to let you know how your pet (family member) is doing and that makes me feel better when I have to leave her. My dog is sometimes shy around new people but immediately took to Karmen on first visit. I would definitely recommend her as a sitter.”
“Really great experience overall, easy to schedule drop off and pick ups. I could tell my pup was loved like family while he was in your care! Would definitely recommend and will use again! Thanks so much!”

“She perfectly kept the agreed schedule of visiting twice a day, cleaned the area thoroughly, and took care of our cat with great attention and organization.

About: I’ve been caring for animals all my life, from puppies and kittens to adult dogs and cats, ensuring they receive proper feeding, exercise, and attention. I’ve also worked under a veterinarian as a vet tech, assisting with routine check-ups, administering medications, and monitoring pets’ health. I take pride in providing safe, loving, and responsible care for every animal I look after. Your pets’ comfort and well-being are my top priority. I work nights from 10 PM–6 AM, which means I’m available during the daytime and evenings to care for your pets. I can provide feeding, walks, playtime, and check-ins on a flexible schedule that fits your needs. Weekend availability is also wide open, so your pets always get consistent attention. I provide personalized care for pets either in my home or at the client’s home, depending on what works best for you. I make sure pets get proper feeding, fresh water, regular exercise, playtime, and lots of attention. I follow any special instructions, including medication or routines, and keep the environment safe, clean, and comfortable. Your pets’ well-being and happiness are always my top priority.
“Karla was wonderful!! I got to meet her in person before leaving my cat with her for almost 4 days and it definitely made me feel more relaxed about leaving him with her. She was very communicative and sent pictures! Will definitely be using her again next time I need someone to watch my baby.”
About: I’ve pet sat for cats for years and cats are my favorite animals, I’ve taken care of almost every animal though cats, dogs, lizards you name it I can care for it. I’ve loved animals my whole life I’ve owed chickens, goats, rabbits, lizards, snakes.
“Rachel was absolutely GREAT! She took our last minute request on stride and took care of our fur baby while we escaped for a short beach vacation. Timely updates. Pics from every visit. Great communication.”
About: I’ve had a few years experience in pet sitting. Ive taken care of mainly dogs and cats but I’m open to just about any kind of animal. I usually am asked to walk, feed, and play with people’s pets. I currently nanny full time Monday-Friday but I also have reliable transportation so whenever I need to leave to check on pets or let them out, I can. I also have open availability on the weekends. I have the ability to sit overnight as well. I tend to only watch pets at their owners houses and I always tend to them very carefully as well as cleaning up after if need be.
About: Very flexible dog/cat mom! We have two rescue dogs and two rescue cats . I adore all animals big or small any breed/temperament I can handle. Would love to provide care and love for your special baby or babies! I’m currently part time only one day a week and have plenty of free time and flexible schedule. Need last minute sitter I’m available , need just a pop in day or night I’m available. I have a fenced in yard and two very friendly dogs that love other dogs and respect boundaries. If you are more comfortable me pet sitting in your home I am available and willing.
About: I’ve cared for dogs with different personalities, from playful and energetic to calm and cuddly. I’m really good at picking up on what each pet needs and adjusting my care to match their vibe. What makes me different is that I’m very attentive and patient. I don’t rush through visits—I actually spend time with the pets, play with them, and make sure they feel comfortable and understood. I’m also great with routine, which helps pets feel secure and settled. I can help reinforce basic habits like potty breaks, leash walking, and positive behavior. For older or more relaxed pets, I focus on gentle care, comfort, and companionship. I also send regular updates and photos so owners always know how their pet is doing. Pet care fits easily into my life because I already care for my own dog daily and follow a consistent routine. I have a flexible schedule and am available on both weekdays and weekends, which allows me to provide care throughout the day—morning, afternoon, or evening depending on what your pet needs. I always plan ahead for bookings so I can fully commit and make sure each pet gets reliable, consistent care. I know routine is important for pets, so I do my best to keep things familiar and stress-free for them. When I’m in a client’s home, I stick closely to the pet’s normal routine so they feel comfortable in their familiar environment. I follow all instructions carefully, keep things clean, and make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, playtime, and care. If pets stay with me, I provide a calm, safe, and loving environment where they can relax. Since I already care for my own dog, I understand how important structure, supervision, and comfort are. In both cases, I always keep owners updated with messages and photos so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.
About: I have lifelong experience caring for cats and understand how unique their personalities and routines can be. As a cat owner myself, I’m very attentive to the small details that help cats feel comfortable and secure in their environment. During visits, I make sure feeding schedules are followed closely, water is refreshed, litter boxes are kept clean, and cats receive the attention and enrichment they need—whether that’s playtime, brushing, or simply calm companionship. I’m also attentive to subtle behavior changes so I can quickly notice if something seems off. I know many cats can be shy with new people, so I always approach them patiently and allow them to interact at their own pace. My goal is to keep your cat relaxed, safe, and cared for while you’re away. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your cat is doing well.

About: I am Brooke. I am 32 years old, married, and a mom of 3 kids (5 years old, 9 years old and 15 years old). I have been a pet owner/pet mommy my whole life.

We are home a lot, so we will have plenty of time to love and spoil on your baby! I can administer medication, feed, toilet and love your baby! Your pup will love running in our yard, playing fetch, walking around the neighborhood, and relaxing on the bed in the heat/ac! We will not let you down! We also live 15 minutes from Great Wolf Lodge in Lagrange. If you are coming for a weekend and hate to leave your baby at home, we would be glad to keep it while you enjoy your stay! I am a school teacher and I am flexible after school hours (3pm). My husband works lest control and he is available when I am teaching. I have a large yard that your dog can safely run around in (on a leash or I have a wireless electric fence if your dog has a collar). I also have 2 friendly dogs your dog can play with!

“Ashley is wonderful with dogs. She gave our Bodhi so much love and made sure our little guy would fit in with her pack. Loved the photos and video she sent during her visit so we didn't have to worry.”
“Katie did an excellent job providing doggy daycare services for Maximus. She is a great communicator, very responsive, and kept me comfortable throughout the process. It is clear that she is truly passionate about dogs and genuinely loves caring for them. Her dog Louie is also very sweet, which made the experience even better. Katie has a beautiful fenced backyard with plenty of room for dogs to run, play, and enjoy themselves safely. I would definitely recommend Katie to anyone looking for someone caring, reliable, and dog-loving to watch their pup.”
“I’ve had a great experience with Jennifer! She always makes both me and my dog feel very welcomed and comfortable. She’s attentive, caring, and takes the time to make sure all of my dog’s special needs are met. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing my dog is in such good hands. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for their pets!”

I currently dog sit full-time so I have plenty of time to care of your fur babies. I have 3 friendly dogs and a fenced-in yard. And a quiet street for walks. I can easily crate your dog if needed.

About: I’ve taken care of cats, dogs, chickens, goats, donkeys etc. I have a very diverse experience in animal care. Mainly looking to take care of cats and dogs. I work as a contracted worker in sales so I create my own schedule. I’m very flexible and would be able to work around just about anything I live on a farm back home with indoor/ outdoor cats, dogs, goats, chickens, donkeys, and rabbits so I’ve been taking care of different animals since a child. I’ve also done volunteer & rescue work! It would be hard to find someone with more experience than me.
About: I've been the mom of a yorkie for 16 years, she has literally become a part of our family, so of course she’s well taken care of like all of our kids. My promise to you is to love and treat your pet as if it were my own. I work from home, so i will have plenty of time to tend to your fur babies. I'm available for boarding, daily and overnight seven days a week. I have a fenced backyard so your fur baby will get plenty of exercise as they are able to roam the back yard at their leisure
About: Animals have been my heart and soul for as long as I can remember! I’ve always had dogs and cats in my life, and right now, I share my home with three amazing pups and two awesome reptiles—a leopard gecko and a bearded dragon. For over 10 years, I’ve owned a thriving business in the area, and along the way, I started caring for some of my clients’ pets. That quickly grew into a true passion for pet sitting! I’d love to meet your furry (or scaly!) babies and give them the love and care they deserve while you’re away! My 13-year-old son regularly accompanies me on drop-in visits. If you or your pets are uncomfortable with this, we’re probably not the right fit — and that’s totally okay! For everyone else, your pets will enjoy double the love and double the attention. 💛🐾 We keep set hours to maintain a calm, low-stress environment for all pets. Drop-off begins at 7:30am, and pick-up is by 8:00pm. Earlier drop-offs can be arranged as early as 7am if needed. However, if your pet is not picked up by 8:00pm, an additional day will be charged and pick-up will move to the following morning. When you’re away, I’m your furbaby’s new bestie! 🐾 Whether it’s belly rubs, playtime, or sticking to their favorite routine, I treat your pets like family—because to me, they are! I’ll make sure they get all the love, attention, and care they deserve, just like you would. So go ahead, enjoy your time away… your pets are in the best hands! Long walks, belly rubs, and all the love—yep, that’s my thing! 🐾💕 What I love most about pet sitting is building real bonds with the dogs I care for. There’s nothing better than winning over a pup who’s a little unsure at first, and by day three, we’re besties! Earning a dog’s trust is the most rewarding feeling, and I’m here to make sure your furry friend feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away!
“Chestnut had a wonderful time with Ms.Melanie and Mr.Chris while I was away for a week. They were very accommodating with the day care schedule, willingly keeping her for extra couple hours in the evening. Ms.Melanie kept us posted throughout the day and sent us lots of pictures of our baby girl. Chestnut seemed to emotionally attached to Mr.Chris, as I saw her nestling in Mr.Chris's arms everyday. They even used Chestnut's Korean name which Chestnut usually responds to, so she feels more comfortable and settles well in the new place. We are grateful for getting to know Ms.Melanie's family and making American connection through Chestnut. They are the family of genuine love towards pets. I highly recommend them if you are looking for pet-loving, friendly, responsive, flexible, and reliable family in the area.👍👍”
About: I love animals actively volunteering locally at shelters and transporting animals regionally for the past 9 years. The safety and care of animals is a big focus of my life. I enjoy spending time with animals and helping them enjoy their lives. I will care for your pet as if it was my own. If you want someone who is patient, kind and lovingly treats animals, you will not go wrong in choosing me. I enjoy watching animals play so you don't need to worry about your pet's safety while out in the yard or on a walk with me. All in all, I would say I am a mature, educated, patient individual who will treat your pets with the care you yourself would provide. Its almost as if you'd left them with a trusted friend or family member. I am working from home and do not work evenings or weekends so I am flexible. I will make sure to be there when needed so your dog does not have to wait for anything. My goal is to make sure that they feel safe and sound while you are not home. I allow dogs time to play and engage with them during play time. I love taking dogs on walk and enjoy engaging cats in a rousing game of catch the feather. I like to provide for the maximum comfort of animals and am glad to watch your animals in your home. I am glad to do whatever it takes to keep your pet happy and healthy.
About: Thank you for visiting my page! My name is Michael, and I have been living with, and taking care of dogs my whole life. Growing up on a horse farm, with many dogs, I developed an unconditional love for animals, but especially dogs! It has been my dream to be able to take care of dogs for a living and I am so grateful for the opportunity and privilege to do just that! Your dog(s) will have just under 4 acres of fully fenced property to roam and enjoy, including access to the pool if they enjoy swimming! They will have their very own air conditioned room with a dog door to their own private deck to enjoy any time, day or night! Their room also comes with 24 hour camera access so you can check in on them whenever you want! I am home 24/7 to make sure your dog(s) are safe and enjoying their stay. My family has 3 bulldogs of our own. They are very sweet and fun loving pups! They love having new dogs over to play with, but if your dog prefers their own personal space, my dogs have a separate fenced area to enjoy. My dogs get multiple walks throughout the property daily, then spend the majority of the day lounging outside in the sun or under one of the many shaded areas on our property. Your dog(s) can walk with the pack or they can be walked privately. I will be with them at all times so they can let me know if they would like to roam, play or lounge outside or if they’d prefer to relax in their room or on their private deck. I am home with the dogs 24/7! We start the day with breakfast and a nice long walk around the property. My dogs tend to enjoy spending the rest of the morning lounging outside, but your dog(s) can let me know what they would like to do. We can play fetch, go swimming, lounge, or they can just roam. If they prefer their own space, I can put my dogs in their separate fenced in area so your dog(s) can comfortably enjoy the rest of the property. If they get too hot, I can put them up in their air conditioned room where they still have outdoor access through their doggy door if they want to relax on their private deck and enjoy the view. I like to take the pack on another walk in the early afternoon in the wooded area where it is cooler, and then we go on one more walk after dinner once it cools down before bed. The important thing is nothing is set in stone. I will allow your dog(s) to let me know what they want to do and I will keep you updated with messages and pictures as much or as little as you like. I have nearly 4 acres of fully fenced property. Half open and half wooded, with plenty of shaded areas for the dogs to lounge. Your dog(s) will have their own air conditioned room with a bed and a dog door that takes them onto their own private deck to enjoy the view. You will also have 24 hour camera access to check in on your dog(s) anytime. My 3 dogs are very friendly, but I understand some dogs may prefer or need to stay separated. In this case, my dogs have their own fenced in area so your dog(s) can still safely and comfortably enjoy the property.

I currently dog sit full-time so I have plenty of time to care of your fur babies. I have 3 friendly dogs and a fenced-in yard. And a quiet street for walks. I can easily crate your dog if needed. I can also make any desired arrangements to give your pets the comfort and care they deserve.
About: I am an energetic and loving pet care provider. I will jump around and run with your pet while sitting and cuddling all the same! I have previous experience watching my friends dogs and was able to teach them how to sit, paw, and stay! I am currently unemployed, but hoping to change that to a part-time job. Either way, I will have plenty of time to play, walk, and cuddle with your pets! I will provide your pets with the best care, efficient walk, feeding and energy ad needed! If any specific care instructions, I will follow them word for word and ensure you and your pet are left with the best experience!
About: I’ve been caring for animals all my life, from puppies and kittens to adult dogs and cats, ensuring they receive proper feeding, exercise, and attention. I’ve also worked under a veterinarian as a vet tech, assisting with routine check-ups, administering medications, and monitoring pets’ health. I take pride in providing safe, loving, and responsible care for every animal I look after. Your pets’ comfort and well-being are my top priority. I work nights from 10 PM–6 AM, which means I’m available during the daytime and evenings to care for your pets. I can provide feeding, walks, playtime, and check-ins on a flexible schedule that fits your needs. Weekend availability is also wide open, so your pets always get consistent attention. I provide personalized care for pets either in my home or at the client’s home, depending on what works best for you. I make sure pets get proper feeding, fresh water, regular exercise, playtime, and lots of attention. I follow any special instructions, including medication or routines, and keep the environment safe, clean, and comfortable. Your pets’ well-being and happiness are always my top priority.
About: I’ve cared for dogs with different personalities, from playful and energetic to calm and cuddly. I’m really good at picking up on what each pet needs and adjusting my care to match their vibe. What makes me different is that I’m very attentive and patient. I don’t rush through visits—I actually spend time with the pets, play with them, and make sure they feel comfortable and understood. I’m also great with routine, which helps pets feel secure and settled. I can help reinforce basic habits like potty breaks, leash walking, and positive behavior. For older or more relaxed pets, I focus on gentle care, comfort, and companionship. I also send regular updates and photos so owners always know how their pet is doing. Pet care fits easily into my life because I already care for my own dog daily and follow a consistent routine. I have a flexible schedule and am available on both weekdays and weekends, which allows me to provide care throughout the day—morning, afternoon, or evening depending on what your pet needs. I always plan ahead for bookings so I can fully commit and make sure each pet gets reliable, consistent care. I know routine is important for pets, so I do my best to keep things familiar and stress-free for them. When I’m in a client’s home, I stick closely to the pet’s normal routine so they feel comfortable in their familiar environment. I follow all instructions carefully, keep things clean, and make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, playtime, and care. If pets stay with me, I provide a calm, safe, and loving environment where they can relax. Since I already care for my own dog, I understand how important structure, supervision, and comfort are. In both cases, I always keep owners updated with messages and photos so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.
About: When I was 4 years old, I wanted a bird but got a hamster instead. Ever since, I’ve made it a point to keep myself surrounded by animals. Started with hamsters. Upgraded to ferrets. Starting at 9, I started riding horses, and owned one from 12 to 24. I’ve always had a cat or 2 by my side, and at 33, got my first dog. Knowing my experience throughout the years, my family & friends have reached out to me to pet sit. Recently, I started living my dream of becoming a credentialed veterinary technician. I have a part time position with varying days off while also being a part time online student. My availability is early morning (no later than 7:00AM) and evenings (no earlier than 6:30PM). I am fully flexible on my days off from work. I provide the same level of care to client’s pets as my own. When tackling any animal care job, I always think to myself, “is this how I want my pet/animal treated & cared for?”
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have experience caring for dogs of all ages and personalities. I currently have two dogs of my own and understand the importance of providing pets with love, attention, exercise, and consistent care. In addition to caring for my own dogs, I’ve fostered two puppies, helping with feeding, potty training, socialization, and daily care. I’ve also provided dog-sitting services for friends and family, including walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, and companionship while owners were away. I treat every dog as if they were my own and strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and happy. Pet care fits easily into my schedule! I am employed by the school system, which gives me a very flexible schedule during the summer, holidays, and school breaks. During those times, I am available throughout the day for walks, drop-in visits, and playtime. When school is in session, I am available in the afternoons, evenings, and on weekends, making it easy to provide reliable care for your pets when you need it most. I treat every pet as if they were my own. I make sure they have plenty of exercise, playtime, potty breaks, fresh water, and lots of love and attention. I follow any instructions provided by the owner to keep pets on their normal schedule and ensure they feel comfortable in their familiar environment. I also love sending photo updates so owners can stay connected with their pets while they’re away.
“Erin was great with Riggley. She communicated with me every step of the way, was professional, and timely. Thank you! We will definitely be using you again in the future!!”
“Faithia was great and came through for me at the last minute when I had to go out of town. She took care of my dog just fine, even ended up taking a sacrifice and going to work a little bit later to make it happen. Definitely happy with her help, and would highly recommend.”
About: I’ve taken care of cats, dogs, chickens, goats, donkeys etc. I have a very diverse experience in animal care. Mainly looking to take care of cats and dogs. I work as a contracted worker in sales so I create my own schedule. I’m very flexible and would be able to work around just about anything I live on a farm back home with indoor/ outdoor cats, dogs, goats, chickens, donkeys, and rabbits so I’ve been taking care of different animals since a child. I’ve also done volunteer & rescue work! It would be hard to find someone with more experience than me.

“Glacier’s daycare experience with Stephanie went so well that we decided to do an overnight stay with her and it went even better! Glacier is such a hard dog to feed and he ate so easily with Stephanie. He made himself so comfortable at nighttime on her bed which just shows how comfortable he feels with her. It really gives such peace of mind to know my dog feels comfortable in her care!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs my whole life. From puppies to seniors it’s a wonderful journey. I’v been training dogs my whole life, but recently got into more experienced obedience with my newest dog. Taking care of my dogs is the best part of my day, and I want to make it special for your pups too! I currently work part-time so I will have more time to spend with your pups! I’m available Monday-Thursday from 8am-3pm and occasionally on Saturday. I want the best care for your furry friends! I currently own 2 dogs who are crated at night. All pets are fed twice a day (morning and night). I want to make sure your pups get the best from me especially on walks. If we come across hot pavement I always pick up my dogs so they don’t burn their feet (if your pet has shoes, that would be great). If we come across any dogs, ill make plenty of space and distractions so no arguments break out!
“Jennifer watched my dog overnight. She asked all the right questions to get to know my dog and her schedule. She treated my dog like her own. I would recommend Jennifer for any pet sitting needs.”
“Penny and Barron were very responsive and did a fantastic job with our puppy. I would highly recommend them, as they made sure Bear was loved the whole time he was boarded. Penny even gave us updates and pictures while we were away. 5 stars!!!”

“Cassie was great! I felt at ease leaving my 5 month old puppy with her. She sent lots of pics! My dog had a great time playing with her dogs, and I could see he was treated like part of the family. I will definitely recommend her, and will be using her again. Thank you Cassie for the great care!”
“Emmelin was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of my dog and made the whole experience stress-free for both of us. She sent regular updates and the cutest photos, which really put my mind at ease while I was away. My pup came home happy, calm, and clearly well loved. I’m so grateful for the care and attention Emmelin gave- she’s a true gem! I’ll definitely be booking with her again.”
“Ariana did an amazing job with my Sexy. She made sure to update me on her behavior, comfort level, eating and naps. I’m never gonna use anyone else to care for my dog! 🙂. Ariana is, by far, The Best.”

“Karmen is a great sitter. Will definitely use her again She keeps you updated with pictures and texts to let you know how your pet (family member) is doing and that makes me feel better when I have to leave her. My dog is sometimes shy around new people but immediately took to Karmen on first visit. I would definitely recommend her as a sitter.”
“Really great experience overall, easy to schedule drop off and pick ups. I could tell my pup was loved like family while he was in your care! Would definitely recommend and will use again! Thanks so much!”
“We left our labradoodle pup with her for 2 nights and she patiently loved him through his separation anxiety! We also failed to understand that most folks leave food for their fur family and she handled that for us as well with no complaint! Thx Torri!!”

About: I’ve always loved animals. My family has only owned dogs and cats but i’ve was a best sitter at my old house for people with birds, rats, hamsters, fish, ect. I would is what makes me different from other sitters is how involved I am and want to be. Caring for all animals is something I will always do no matter the size (or smell 🤣). I would greatly love and appreciate to take care of any animals out there that need a sitter! I am currently working a part time job at Old Navy. Right now i’m not in school so i’ll be pretty open. Although I did just graduate high school meaning I’ll be dealing with college visits and stuff like that. I have 5 acred back yard which IS fenced in. We have a door that stays cracked open for our pets to easily come in and out when they want to. My family free feeds our pets but we can totally switch that if needed to.
“Susan was so good with Homer! From the initial meet and greet through the first time sitting. If Homer is happy, we are happy. Communicates very well and is understanding when our travel plans adjust.”
