“I was very nervous to leave my little buddy. He doesn’t leave my side much. After a meet and greet with Bryan, I knew that I could leave him without worry. Bryan was very responsive with each and every text. I picked up a very happy dog. I wouldn’t hesitate to leave him with this family again. Thank you for everything!”

“Ray was outstanding, always replies back, always sends pictures. He made me feel real comfortable leaving my "son" with him. Very friendly guy and he even gave my buddy a scarf/handkerchief. Strongly recommend Ray. If I need a dog sitter again, Ray is who I am calling.”

“Kathy is the best - period! Our dogs could not wait to get to her house. She was like a second mother to them. We had to move and we miss Kathy! We have not found another as good as her!”

“Dana and Brandon were great. Clean and welcoming environment. Kinda felt like dropping our fur-kid off at a friends house for the weekend. They stayed in touch with us and sent updates and pics. We will definitely be calling on them in the future and recommending them to our friends.”

“Kyrie has been doing a great job with my Brandi girl. This is her first time away with someone other than family members and she settled in really well with him. He has been extremely helpful to ease our parental worries too, along with giving tips about her harness and walking so she doesn't pull as much. He is calm and soft spoken which I feel really is comforting to her as well.”

“Kristin is amazing. She kept me informed of our 3 fur babies throughout the week I was gone. I received daily pictures of what they were doing. I will definitely use her again!!!!”

About: I've been caring for dogs for as long as I can remember. I grew up in a home with pets and have spent my life feeding, walking, playing with, and caring for animals of all ages. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and deserves patience, love, and attention. Whether your pet needs exercise, playtime, cuddles, medication reminders, or just someone to keep them company, I'll care for them as if they were my own. I know how important it is to have someone you can trust, and my goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable and happy while you're away. I currently offer pet care Friday through Sunday. During the weekends, I'm able to provide attentive care, including walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of love and companionship. I only accept bookings when I know I can give each pet the time and attention they deserve, so your furry family member will receive quality care while you're away. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a securely fenced yard and a fenced outdoor patio where dogs can safely enjoy fresh air and play under supervision. Pets are never left unattended outside. Inside, they are treated like family with plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I can follow your pet's normal routine, administer medications if needed, and accommodate crate-trained dogs if that is part of their routine. I also have two friendly Yorkshire Terriers who enjoy meeting other dogs, but I always introduce pets carefully to ensure everyone is comfortable.
“Ladonna and her husband did a fantastic job. She had multiple dogs already when we dropped off Jaela. That was the day a bad storm and tornado came through their neighborhood. I can only imagine what they went through with all the pets they were watching. She also kept us informed and sent pictures of Jaela and her new friends. Definitely will be booking with them again. Finally, Jaela came home smelling good and had freshly washed blanket.”

“Ashley sent us pictures throughout the entire stay and kept us updated on how our baby was doing! She was very quick to respond with any concerns or questions my mama heart had! Will definitely use her again!”

“This was our first time using Rover, and we were very pleased. Lydia's pricing is extremely reasonable. She sent so many photos and several updates and kept in touch the whole time. I liked the fact that she fed Kai as we requested, and she allowed us to bring a blanket and food dish, and even a few toys. Kai seemed to love playing with her dog, Sunny and the two other dogs who overlapped time with us. I was a little concerned about not having a fenced yard but it wasn't an issue at all. She even did a meet and greet before we booked with her. I would absolutely use her again and highly recommend her!”

“She was amazing in caring for my fuzzy baby . I was informed daily and my girl had a ball I would recommend her to everyone and will definitely use her from now on.”

“You MUST book with Brandi. My yorkie, Mater really enjoyed himself. Brandi responded quickly when I messaged her and sent extra pictures (she sent multiple pictures already as her routine) to me daily of my sweet boy when I messaged about him. Her family loved on Mater and he felt at home. I must add that when I picked him up after my vacation, Mater whimpered as drove away. This means everything! He was sad to leave.”

“Kim was awesome. She really stepped up to care for our two dogs who were not used to staying away from home. She was very communicative and left us with nothing to worry about.”
About: I have volunteered at an animal rescue around a year. I was responsible for fixing them food, water, cleaning their crate and playing with them. I also had a family dog growing up and currently have three cats. I work from home full-time and get multiple breaks throughout the day, so I am always available at home. I am a homebody and have the time to care for animals. I have a fenced in back yard with a grassy area. Pets sitting on the furniture and being around is no issue. I do have three cats, but I am able to keep them separate at all times.

“Arnelia was great with my dogs! She sent many photos and videos, and she ensured they were comfortable playing with the other dogs in the home before allowing them to run around together. We also had a meet-and-greet prior to their stay, which was helpful to ensure it would be a good fit. She has a wonderful fenced yard for the dogs to run in that she keeps well maintained. Arnelia provides training and grooming during their stay and was able to quickly pick up on their training needs. The dogs seemed very happy while they were there. I look forward to working with Arnelia again!”

About: I love cats and I understand their versatility well. I'll give them the space they need and/or all of the love. I believe in scooping a litter box EVERY day and in enrichment time, especially for indoor babies. I have 2 five year old cats that get along with my 2 dogs (1 senior, 1 puppy). Both cats are rescues & I fostered their entire litter, but wound up keeping 2. My mother worked in veterinary medicine and I am well versed in kitten & senior care. I can administer oral, topical, and injection medicine. I believe in catering to each animal's personality & temperament.

They are my heart and I am always making sure they have the best care possible and are living their best life.

“Paige was great! She was always on time and very responsive. I have a Sphynx cat who need a little more maintenance and Paige did a good job with her. I will definitely book her again for any future needs! Thank you again! :)”

About: I grew up on a farm helping my dad take care of all sorts of animals from bottle feeding goats to incubating eggs. I’ve also help take care of multiple senior dogs some who needed medical needs. Being a full time photographer allows me to work from home and make my own schedule allowing me to be flexible with my daily and weekly pet care routine. For my morning and evening pet care routine, I like to first take the pet out to potty. From there I prepare their food and get them fresh water. Once the pets is done or seems satisfied with their meal I like to play with them. Before leaving I then let them out/walk for another potty break.

About: I’ve worked at the rescue in my hometown for a few years now, I’ve worked in 2 different grooming salons, and have also been involved with some vets.

About: Since I was a young child, I’ve always loved animals. So when my neighbors need someone to care for their babies, it was a no brainer!

I’ve taught her all the basic commands and we are now working on the fun stuff! I also am my own groomer! Super lucky that my dog loves baths. I am currently working part time, but my schedule at work is very flexible. As long as I have prior notice, my bosses are good with giving me breaks for walks if needed. Also I walk my own dog 3 times daily so I definitely can make time for more. I personally crate trained my dog. She no longer sleeps in the crate at 2 years old, but she still has the discipline.

I vacuum daily and yes, animals are allowed on my couch!

I am able to house sit, take your dogs out, play with your pups, walk them, clean your cats litter, etc!! I live in a house with a fenced in backyard. Currently we do not have pets in the house, so your animal would be receiving all of the attention. I can also take them on walks around our neighborhood! I don't mind if your pets sleep in bed with me but if they need to be crated I can pack those in my car as well :)
About: I have been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. Whenever there was a stray dog in our neighborhood growing up, everyone would bring it to our house. I am a vet tech and love every minute of it. Tasks include but are not limited to caring for, walking, grooming, and medicating animals that are under our care. I am able to administer oral, intravenous, and subcutaneous medications, including insulin and subcutaneous fluids. I am extremely reliable and punctual, and your furry family members will be very well taken care of with me. I’m active so they will get ample exercise and playtime when they’re with me. I love animals of all shapes and sizes and would love the opportunity to work for your family and provide the best care possible. I’m currently a veterinary technician at a locally owned animal hospital. I’m able to care for animals before work, on my lunch break, and after work, as well as my days off. Basically my entire life revolves around caring for animals, and I love it! It’s truly my passion. I provide plenty of love and attention to your pets via playtime, snuggles, potty breaks, working on basic training and commands, medicating, feeding, watering, and proving whatever they might need.
About: I grew up on a farm helping my dad take care of all sorts of animals from bottle feeding goats to incubating eggs. I’ve also help take care of multiple senior dogs some who needed medical needs. Being a full time photographer allows me to work from home and make my own schedule allowing me to be flexible with my daily and weekly pet care routine. For my morning and evening pet care routine, I like to first take the pet out to potty. From there I prepare their food and get them fresh water. Once the pets is done or seems satisfied with their meal I like to play with them. Before leaving I then let them out/walk for another potty break.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life! Big and small. I currently have two rough collies. I enjoy doing basic training, walks, playing and cuddles. Your pet will be well taken care of and loved on. I am currently home every day with the exception of dropping off/picking up my kids from school. I am generally available at any point in the day. If I’m in a clients home I will follow specifications given by them. If boarding a dog in my home, I have two rough collies, which are extremely gentle and playful. I also have four children that love playing with animas. I have a fenced in yard. Animals sleep inside!

“I was very nervous to leave my little buddy. He doesn’t leave my side much. After a meet and greet with Bryan, I knew that I could leave him without worry. Bryan was very responsive with each and every text. I picked up a very happy dog. I wouldn’t hesitate to leave him with this family again. Thank you for everything!”

“Ray was outstanding, always replies back, always sends pictures. He made me feel real comfortable leaving my "son" with him. Very friendly guy and he even gave my buddy a scarf/handkerchief. Strongly recommend Ray. If I need a dog sitter again, Ray is who I am calling.”

“Kathy is the best - period! Our dogs could not wait to get to her house. She was like a second mother to them. We had to move and we miss Kathy! We have not found another as good as her!”

“Dana and Brandon were great. Clean and welcoming environment. Kinda felt like dropping our fur-kid off at a friends house for the weekend. They stayed in touch with us and sent updates and pics. We will definitely be calling on them in the future and recommending them to our friends.”

“Kyrie has been doing a great job with my Brandi girl. This is her first time away with someone other than family members and she settled in really well with him. He has been extremely helpful to ease our parental worries too, along with giving tips about her harness and walking so she doesn't pull as much. He is calm and soft spoken which I feel really is comforting to her as well.”

“You MUST book with Brandi. My yorkie, Mater really enjoyed himself. Brandi responded quickly when I messaged her and sent extra pictures (she sent multiple pictures already as her routine) to me daily of my sweet boy when I messaged about him. Her family loved on Mater and he felt at home. I must add that when I picked him up after my vacation, Mater whimpered as drove away. This means everything! He was sad to leave.”

“Kim was awesome. She really stepped up to care for our two dogs who were not used to staying away from home. She was very communicative and left us with nothing to worry about.”
About: I have volunteered at an animal rescue around a year. I was responsible for fixing them food, water, cleaning their crate and playing with them. I also had a family dog growing up and currently have three cats. I work from home full-time and get multiple breaks throughout the day, so I am always available at home. I am a homebody and have the time to care for animals. I have a fenced in back yard with a grassy area. Pets sitting on the furniture and being around is no issue. I do have three cats, but I am able to keep them separate at all times.
About: I have experience with all types of breeds and I am familiar with breed specific needs. Experience with young and old, big and small. I love them all. I am currently working from home so I have plenty of time to come and care for your furry babies. I am also able to walk them as needed. I have a fenced yard and one dog that is super friendly that will help keep your baby company. I can also crate them as needed.
“Arnelia was great with my dogs! She sent many photos and videos, and she ensured they were comfortable playing with the other dogs in the home before allowing them to run around together. We also had a meet-and-greet prior to their stay, which was helpful to ensure it would be a good fit. She has a wonderful fenced yard for the dogs to run in that she keeps well maintained. Arnelia provides training and grooming during their stay and was able to quickly pick up on their training needs. The dogs seemed very happy while they were there. I look forward to working with Arnelia again!”
“Randi was awesome!! She kept my pup for 6 days and when I picked him up he had been bathed and groomed. Communication was easy. She went above and beyond and made me feel comfortable while I was away. 10/10 would recommend”

“Our two pups loved spending time with Savanna and her family! It was so nice to be able to get away and not have to worry if they were ok, Savannah sent daily updates and pics which made our day!! Also we appreciated her quick response time! 1000/10 would recommend Savanna to anyone!!!”

“Katherine took great care of my two dogs. She communicated with us throughout the weekend and sent pictures and videos of them. I would recommend her and will reach out to her for future bookings.”
