“Baylea and her family watched my dog and I don't think he has ever been happier! They sent me photos everyday and he had all the space he needed to run and play. I would definitely recommend them to anyone!”

“5/5 🤩 Nansy is awesome! Very nice person and accommodating, helping us out in a pinch when our usual sitters fell thru. Our senior pupper needs special care, so it was a true relief when we met with Nansy and she asked a lot of questions, going the extra mile to make sure our pup had a comfortable stay. Would definitely book her again if needed. Thank you Nansy!!”

“Very nice people and our dog Zeus had a wonderful time! Would definitely have him stay there again. Good communication and provided daily pictures as well without going overboard.”

About: I've been dog sitting on and off since my 20's. Most were co-workers and family. I walked, bathed, brushed and given medicine, both orally and topical as required. I'm currently retired and can dog sit 7 days a week with advance notice. I can also day board as early as 7am and pick up as late as 6pm. If different hours are needed I can be flexible. I have a very large home where your dog can roam freely inside. However, I don't have a fenced in yard. I do have a secure tie line attached to my home. Your dog will never be left outside by themselves as I will be there with them.
About: I have babysat or taken care of dogs/animals ever since I was a child. To this day I will take in pets that are hurt or homeless until they are rehabilitated or find a good home. I have experience with all ages and stages of canine. Experience training dogs, nurturing them back to health, birthing, caring for seniors and special needs, bottle feeding babies, and much more. Let me know what your special needs are! I homestead and care for livestock on our farm. I have a pretty open availability. My largest chores here are completed early morning and late evening, giving me opportune time to be available during the days for checking in on, playing with and feeding, walking or housing your pup. I do not crate animals unless specified by owner. They will hang out with my family and I like they are our own if they are staying with us. I will follow and respect your rules for your pet in your homes and mine. We can work together with any special needs. I have an incredibly flexible schedule which allows me plenty of time for drop-in visits, doggie day sitting or to go on walks with your incredible pup. I will follow and abide by the rules you have in your home for pup. During our meet and greet we will go over all expectations, needs and rules for your doggie.

“Kelsey and Manny are lifesavers! They worked with me to help during a family emergency and watched my anxious cat during this time. They have experience with fostering and I felt so comfortable leaving Ajax with them. They take such good care of their pet guests and are willing and able to assist as needed. My kitty needs meds and wet food and they take it all in stride. Thanks for your help!!”

“Baylea has been so good with my cat, Nubi! It's been his first time with someone looking after him and she did great with him! She did so well following my instructions to feed him, giving him space and talking to him! She said he let her pet him which he doesn't allow many people to do. I was very happy to hear things went well. I will definitely be using her again!”


About: Pheonix, my now 9 year old cat is the love of my life. I understand what a cat needs whether that be cuddles during a nap or treats during playtime! Their subtle yet obvious cues of affection is what sets cats apart from any other animal and I admire and appreciate them so much!

About: I like dogs more than I like people. Lol. I’ve had dogs in my life since I was born and I adopted my own fur babies. :) I am available most days and can be available for overnights. I am sure that I can make it work! I go out of my way to make sure that all animals are safe and happy. If you have other animals in the house that need to be taken care of I would be more than happy to give them all the lovings as well. I am flexible and open for anything, all you have to do is ask. I hope that I have the opportunity to meet your perfect doggies and kitties in the near future! Pet care is something I am available for all summer and part time in the fall, winter, and spring. I love caring for animals no matter whose they are. I have a fenced yard and 2 friendly dogs that will keep your fur babies company while you are away. I can easily crate your dog or take them on a walk if needed. I currently have a coaching job and stay home with my kids in the mornings so I am pretty flexible. Otherwise, I constantly take care of my own fur babies at home too. I make sure the pets feel safe by moving slowly and giving lots of pets if that’s what they enjoy. I also will keep your house tidy during my stay!
About: I have been a dog lover for many years! I used to have a farm dog growing up! I always make sure fresh water is readily available, I have extra food/ water bowls as well. I like to take 2-4 mile walks throughout the day. I bring a portable water dish and treats. I do regularly brush, I would be happy to do the same with your puppers! I will interact with your puppers by a tug of war game, fetch, and a mental stimulation puzzle toy! I have administered oral medications before as well! I am home most of the day, occasionally I will leave for a couple hours to run errands or hang out with friends. My weekends are usually always open. I do not have a fenced in back yard, so my dog, Bear, is always on a leash, he has a harness on walks. My experience with my own dog is he is hyper and active, I try my best to keep up with his energy level!
About: We have had the pleasure of owning a small business called "Pet-Inn" and boarded many dogs! Me and my mom took care of others dogs for quite some time and really enjoyed it. This experience helped me become passionate about entrepreneurship as well as working towards a compassionate connection with your pets! I currently have a part-time small business I'm running apart from being a "SAHM" so I will have plenty of time to get to know your beloved pet and get to know them so I can take care of them in the best way I know possible! I have some free time in my schedule, so finding a slot during the week to care for your pet works well for us. I have a now 6-year-old who adores small dogs, cats, and other animals! I am well aware of the responsibilities of pet care, but I want to emphasize that your pet's safety is my top priority.
