“Wendy is wonderful! They have a very professional setup, from air conditioned kennels, to individual kennels/runs for each dog, and keeping us informed on how the dogs were doing during their stay. When we picked up our dogs up they were happy and healthy. I will definitely be a returning customer!”
“Mikey took great care of our bernedoodle, Mocha. Mocha was walked & cared for like a member of Mikey’s family. Mikey sent pictures & video updates of Mocha during her stay. I would highly recommend Mikey to care for your dog!”
“My dog seemed happy during her stay while we were vacationing in the area. Heidi had great communication with quick responses and accommodated the times we needed for drop off and pick up. I appreciated the pictures she sent. It was nice to have our dog with a family rather than in a kennel. Would recommend and use again if we head that way. Thank you!”
“My dog Artie is in a very good mood after staying with Travis and his family in their cozy house. He also looks pretty happy on all the nice pictures shared by Travis and, certainly, would love to visit his new friends again. I fully share Artie's feelings and strongly recommend to anyone looking for a great dog care opportunity to get in touch with Travis.”
“We are so pleased with the attention and love that Kim and Dave have given to our dog. I am not certain that she missed us very much. She felt right at home within minutes of meeting them prior to being boarded there. It was so wonderful to feel secure leaving her with people that truly care about her comfort and happiness. They are great with sharing photos and responding to messages and sharing daily photos too. We will be using them again for future needs.”
“Oscar spent a few days with Heather and was clearly well looked after, relaxed and happy. The communication was great and it's always nice to receive pictures and updates—I can only recommend Heather and would happily book with her again. Cheers!”
“Shaunett was amazing! She took wonderful care of our pup! Each day I received updates with how our dog was doing while we were away, the activities they did together— like playtime, walks and car rides— all of which our dog loves! Shaunett sent several photos and we could see how much our dog was enjoying their time together. I’m looking forward to having Shaunett watch our pup in the future— so much so that I will likely adjust my dates to meet her availability!!! Thank you!!”
“The Best Dog Sitter Experience. Ashley and her family were Amazing. They treated our dog Rosie like their own. Rosie normally has anxiety and doesn’t eat at the kennel or when we are away. She had not of that with Ashley and Robbie. They were so concerned about her wellbeing. They kept us updated with regular posts and videos and pics. In fact, I was a little worried that Rosie might not want to come home. We will definitely use Ashely again, and never kennel if we can help it.”
“Kelly and her family were great! Our puppy Clover loved them and their dogs. Kelly sent pictures daily which I appreciated very much. I definitely recommend her!”
“Our dog Sam had an amazing experience staying with Isabelle and Fred. It was short notice, and they made it an amazing experience throughout. They took such good care of him, even made him Christmas dog treats! Highly recommend”
“Suzanne and her family took great care of my timid Brittany. We had never been separated before, and it was only the 2nd time in her 6 years of life that she spent nights away from home. Suzanne's son spent a lot of time with her, coaxing her into trusting him and feeling safe with the new situation. Suzanne sent me pictures and text updates, letting me know how my dog was doing at settling in with them. By the time I returned from my trip, Jolie was feeling at home with Suzanne and her family. My ability to enjoy my vacation with my family was made possible by the care and attentiveness Suzanne focused on my dog. I would definitely board Jolie with Suzanne again. I highly recommend her to anyone who wants a good, caring home environment for their dog when they have to leave them for a while.”
“Boone had sooo much fun at Rebeccas! Their home has so much area for the dogs to run and be outside, it made me feel so good knowing he was outside so much! She was very responsive and sent lots of pics! I will definitely be using Rebecca again!”
“Stephanie was beyond fantastic! She was incredibly responsive and gave great check ins on how my pup was doing. She is incredibly kind, patient and caring to both pup and owner alike. I find myself so lucky to have found her! 10/10 would recommend.”

“Our two pups had a fantastic time boarding with Melissa and Joey for 11 nights while we were on vacation. Absolutely no worries on our end during our trip, knowing they were being so well cared for. Melissa is quick to respond to all messages and provided regular updates. 100% will use them again for both boarding and in-house visits!”
About: Hello! We are looking to help people out in our free time with pet care. Please let us know a few times you are available for a meet and greet before hand to ensure it is a good fit! We have two cats and one dog; and between the two of us have many years of experience with cats, puppies and senior dogs. We will be on time, provide lots of photos while you are away, and be certain to follow your instructions exactly as written. We look forward to meeting you and your pets! Between the two of us, we are very flexible. Our only routine is walking our dog in the morning and evening, and feeding our animals twice per day. We have a fenced backyard, and let our pets go out when they want, but mostly they stay inside. We take our dog on two walks daily. We will follow whatever direction you have. Because of our cats, we can only accept small dogs into our home for boarding, but can go to your home as needed.
“Kara was excellent with our Golden Retriever, puppy. We were so lucky to have her take care of him. You could tell she truly cared about animals. She had a perfect place for our dog to stay with a great fenced in backyard. If we are in the area again we will contact Kara!”

“Sierra did a stellar job taking care of my two cats. The pictures she sent over the two months I was away showed me that my cats were very content and relaxed.. In fact, I was concerned that they might be so happy that they would want to go home with Sierra! I have hired Sierra many times and have always been very pleased with her commitment to my beloved cats!”
“Mellany did a fantastic job taking care of our “spoiled” cat, Nin. She was extremely conscientious regarding her feeding and schedule. Mellany exceeded our expectations and we highly recommend her based on our experience. We would not hesitate requesting her services in the future.”
“Abby did a wonderful job of looking after my cat, Matisse. Abby gave her lovely company while we were gone, sent lots of pictures and clearly loves animals. I won’t hesitate to use her again next time we are out of town.”
“From when she came out and did our initial meeting with the animals, I knew she was going to be a great fit on taking care of the animals. Our cats don’t warm up to new people quickly & they were instantly friendly. She did daily check ins on them. Always super thorough, played with the dogs and gave the kitties treats. I think our animals are actually disappointed we did not come home bearing treats after having an awesome pet sitter all week. Haha. I highly recommend Alexandrea. She did great with our crew. We’ve got two dogs and two cats. Age ranges from 1 year to 13 years old. She even did some light cleaning so we didn’t have to come home to hair covered floors.”
About: Cats aren't just "easier" than dogs—they're complex, perceptive creatures who notice everything, especially when their routine is disrupted. My approach to cat care is rooted in understanding that cats thrive on consistency, respect for their boundaries, and someone who actually pays attention to their subtle communication. I've cared for cats of all personalities over the past 13 years—from the social butterflies who greet you at the door to the shy ones who need days to warm up, and everything in between. What sets me apart is that I don't rush the relationship. I let cats come to me on their terms, and I've learned to read their body language so well that I can tell when a "hiding" cat is stressed versus just observing, or when a change in litter box habits signals something more serious. What I bring to cat care: ✓ Medication administration – pills, liquids, injections, subcutaneous fluids, eye drops, ear medications ✓ Special dietary needs – timed feedings, prescription diets, food puzzles, picky eaters ✓ Litter box expertise – yes, I actually care about litter boxes! Multiple boxes, special substrates, and monitoring for health changes ✓ Senior cat care – arthritis management, kidney disease support, comfort-focused care ✓ Shy or anxious cats – patient, calm approach that respects their need for space ✓ Medical monitoring – recognizing early signs of illness, URI symptoms, behavioral changes that indicate pain ✓ Multi-cat households – managing dynamics, separate feeding schedules, preventing resource guarding ✓ Interactive play sessions – not just food and water; I engage cats with play appropriate to their age and energy ✓ Grooming assistance – brushing long-haired cats, nail trims if your cat tolerates it I treat your home with respect—plants watered, mail collected, and your cat's environment kept exactly as they like it. You'll get regular updates (including photos if your cat cooperates!) so you know they're content and cared for. If you have a cat who needs more than just someone to "dump food and go," let's talk.
About: Hello! I have been a cat lover for my whole life. I have also owned cats of my own for the majority of my time on earth. I am familiar with their many personalities, attitudes, energy levels based on age, as well as care dependent on breed. I have two kitties of my own now, and they are literally my spoiled children.

About: I really enjoy being around animals and am willing to help at any time, any day or night, dogs or cats. Nothing special, just genuine love and attention.

About: During Covid, I was laid off and it turned into a wonderful experience of being able to dog sit. I was watching 5 dogs on a regular basis, feeding, playing, napping, and loving on each and every one of them. I absolutely love dogs, I have taken care of small to big dogs and they are all my favorite!! I worked at an animal shelter and gained a lot of animal knowledge and experience from there I am currently working a full time job Monday through Friday until 3PM, with occasional weekend shifts. I am able to do drop in, house sitting, and walkings in the afternoons. I can provide lots of love, attention, and stimulation to your pets. I am very active but also love to relax and provide cuddles if your pet is more on the mellow side of activity. I am happy to clean up any messes, and follow any particular instructions of care you may have for your pet.
About: I’ve had animals my whole life! I would volunteer at my aunt's clinic during summer/ winter! I would also watch my sisters big/ small dogs all year-round while in school. I am back home from college and looking for side gigs especially with dogs along with my other job! They add extra happiness and fulfill my every week. when around dogs I will not take my eye off them! I will always listen to the instructions given by the owner. I know what pets need with every service!
About: Long time animal lover! Willing to adapt our adventure to your pets needs! I truly understand the importance of a good walk for your pet (I have a husky) and would love nothing more to excite your pet for their outings! I worked for a doggie daycare and worked with 40 to 60 dogs everyday. I am confident in my safety practices for not only myself but for your pet(s)! I’m hoping to schedule a few regulars during the morning hours before work. Also willing to take your pet on a longer adventure (hikes) on Tuesday or Wednesday if energy level demands it! I look forward to meeting you and your pet and I’m even more excited to become friends with your pet! Unleash some energy with me!
About: I got my first pet, a hamster, when i was six! I followed up with a Guinea pig. When i turned 11, i got my first cat Patience. All of these pets i fully cared for, and did chores in order to pay for supplies. This is what fueled my love for pets! When i turned 15, i got my first dog. Sadly he passed away from illness, but it was a lesson learned on how to care for special needs dogs. My cat Patience died when i was 20 at the age of 9. That sparked me to get a dog not long after (since my cat never got along with the dog i had, i felt it best to give her a single pet home). Ive spent the last two years training Rollo and learning everything i can about making his time here special! He’s made my love for animals deepen, causing me to want to get further involved in animals as a part of my every day life! I hope to one day become a dog trainer, and specialize in obedient house pets! Im currently working a day job, but have too much time on my hands! I am available weekdays after 4, and all day long on weekends! I care for all animals like they are my own. Pets live shorter lives than us, so its my goal to make their lives the best they can be! I love going on walks with my dog, and playing fetch at the dog park! I always make sure my clients pet gets along well with mine if i plan on having him tag along! Its a great way to socialize the pets, and it gives them something to look forward to!
About: Cats are personally my favorite animals, so I'll take on kitty clients like they are my own. I administer medications, provide playtime, and most importantly, snuggle them as much as possible (so long as the cat tolerates it). I am quite organized and I like to keep the area as clean as possible for the kitties, since I know they like to stay clean as well.
About: Hi, my name is Carly. I myself am a dog mom and I understand how important it is to make sure your loved ones are in good care. I love taking care of animals. They are always part to the family. Growing up I have taken care of many animals for as long as I can remember. I work my schedule around the pet's schedule. Whether it's a quick little walk or long hours of play time. Every pet has their own needs that need to be met in a scheduled time. I personally love to give them my undivided attention. Playing fetch and dog games with them helps build a bond and trust. My dogs love to play fetch and go for walks, so I always set time aside for take them outside for a couple hours to play and go for a walk.

“Mikey was so kind, patient, and knowledgeable! I am convinced our trip would not have been nearly as pleasant with a dog along without her help! It felt like our pup made friends for life and we all did as well! If we come back, there’s nothing we’d do differently! Including getting Mikey’s tips on food, dog advice, and assistance! We can’t thank her enough! 💕”
“Thank you, Travis and your family, for taking care of Henry and Lucca. You always communicate promptly and take great care of them. We are thankful to find someone in the area who we feel certain will take care of our boys.”
“Abby was amazing with Charlie! He loved going to her house for day care, got along well with her dog, Julia, and they had fun adventures every day. He would come home and just sleep. I will definitely use Abby in the future.”
“Kaitlyn was so wonderful with Hoss. She updated me throughout the day and included pictures. It was so refreshing to know my dog was in good hands while I was gone. I highly recommend Kaitlyn for your Rover needs!”
“Madison was wonderful! From the moment we met her, we could tell our dog was in great hands. She has such a welcoming, genuine, and caring personality, and it was clear she truly loves dogs. She took amazing care of our dog and gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We feel very lucky to have found her and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a fantastic dog sitter. 🐾”
About: I’ve spent my entire life surrounded by animals, from dogs and cats to just about every creature you’d find on a ranch. That upbringing gave me a natural understanding of different personalities and needs, and a deep love for them all. I’m comfortable caring for pets who need extra attention, whether that’s administering medication, supporting a disability, or helping a shy or nervous animal feel safe. My gentle, quiet nature helps animals relax and settle in, so they can truly feel at home while you’re away. As a work-from-home freelancer, my schedule is wide open, giving me the flexibility to care for your pets whenever they need me, day or night. I have a big, fully fenced backyard, including an amazing dog run in case they need some alone time or need to be away from others. I also have an open home with plenty of room to take long naps in the sun.

“Stephanie took amazing care of our pup while we were traveling through the area and had an activity planned where we couldn’t bring our dog. It’s hard to trust a stranger with our beloved pet but she made us feel at ease with a phone call first and then allowing us to visit her home to drop him off. We would definitely request her again if we are ever back in the area and needed pup care.”
About: I have taken care of all pets of all ages since I was a child. I have experience with puppies to seniors with special needs. I am currently a self employed dog groomer and have 4 dogs of my own. I train and show an Old English Sheepdog. I am flexible so fitting in visits and walks is super easy to do!

I respect dog behaviors and special needs.
About: I LOVE animals! Dogs, cats, goats, horses, rabbits, basically all of the furry friends! We've had dogs and cats my whole life (from puppies and kittens to grumpy old men dogs). I've taken care of many of my friends and families dogs in my home and in their homes. I’m currently working part time, so I have plenty of time for your pets! My schedule changes regularly but I’m generally available anytime, just send me a message! I have six acres with trails for walking your dogs! I have an older, playful and friendly dog plus two dog savvy cats. I do not have a fenced area but will leash walk the dogs (or no leash at owners request). I have hard wood floors and stairs that may not be ideal for tripods or aging senior dogs (unless they’re used to that). I no longer have a kennel, but if you bring one and want your dog kenneled I can do that. Your pup will enjoy lots of pets, snuggles, play time both indoors and outdoors and of course treats (as approved by pet parents)!
“Corrie, you were perfect for Lucy. Thank you and your sweet family for loving on Lucy! Sending a pic and update in less than and hour after dropping her off meant a lot to us. I highly recommend Corrie!”

About: I've had a love for animals since I was a kid and have previously fostered for the animal shelters because it brings me joy. I have 2 small fur babies of my own and I babysit my daughters miniature Schnauzer puppy during the week days. I work from home so my schedule is relatively open. I'm active so we enjoy walks and playing on our 12 acre property (during the summer). Our fur babies are never left unattended and we do keep them on leashes when they go outside on our property. During the winter I spend time spoiling our fur babies with lots of love, snuggles and indoor play time. I have 2 friendly small dogs (Arlo and Aveena) who love play dates. Our home is close to walking trails and we have plenty room for indoor activities.
“Great care for my energetic dog, sometimes hard to manage, dog! Erik sent me updates throughout the visit. He treated my dog as if it was his own in a very good way. I especially appreciated that he took my pup with him to the local coffee shop and socialized him a bit. Definitely recommend!!!”

About: I grew up caring for animals, dogs, cats, horses, fish, cows, chickens, and a goat, having pets most of my life. My background is in healthcare while in the military. I have been my father's caregiver which allowed me to help foster puppy litters to adult dogs and care for a pack of 8 dogs-4 of which are mine while caring for him. I can now enjoy caring for other's fur babies giving them love and support. I am interested in always learning about animal behavior and all aspects of their care. I have been my father's caregiver but sadly he passed at the age of 94 and would enjoy caring for other's fur babies giving them love and support. I have an open schedule that is veryflexible. I am blessed to have my son's help caring for our dogs, allowing me to provide in-home and overnight care if needed. The number one goal is to adapt personalized routines for your pets so they are happy and healthy.

About: Hi pet parents 👋 A little bit about me - I grew up in Texas and have years of experience with caring for animals. I love spending time outdoors. You can find me snowboarding, paddle boarding, hiking, camping or rock climbing. 🧗 I work remotely and my schedule is flexible. I take my dog on 3 walks a day. In the mornings we take a 4 mile walk and are super active on the weekends going swimming and hiking. Multiples walks a day. I enjoy taking mine to the dog park and on hikes. We also don’t mind being lazy and cuddling on the couch :)

About: I have been around dogs my entire life. I have owned all shapes and sizes. I currently have a whippit-pitbull mix who is my child. I know how precious pets are to a family and offer the same care I would offer to a person. I love going to shelters to play with the dogs and give them love. If I could adopt every dog in the world I would, until them I will give them love and care while their parents are away. I work full-time during the week, but I am 100% free to stop in on weekend and holidays and walk or love on the dog. My schedule is a little tight Monday through Friday as I have my own baby to get home, but I am happy to stop in after work. I do not offer services in my home as I live with roommates who also have a dog. I am more than willing to do stop in visits in the dogs home.
About: I’ve been around pets all my life. Dogs, Cats and Horses. I’ve been helping friends and Family with their pet’s for a while now, doing drop-ins, walking, and Pet Sitting. Feeding and giving medication is something I’ve done as well. I am a dog owner. 😊 This is one of a few things I do to make a living. My schedule ebbs and flows so please just reach out and I’ll do my best to work things out. My home is not set up for Pet Sitting, but I am willing to care for your sweet pooches in your home. I really do prefer CLEAN, TIDY and safe homes, please.
About: I have owned and cared for all types of pets since I was 5. I have always had dogs and cats, even other types of pets. I know how to feed, bathe, clean pet living areas and play with all animals! I have always been a caregiver both for humans and pets! I am a stay at home mom and a full time (online) student at the moment. So I have plenty of available blocks in my day! I am very attentive to your pets needs! I will make sure to always follow your structure/ routine you have set for your baby, and will intervene when needed for your pets safety and well being while in my care! I have the knowledge and ability to adapt my care to the type of pet I am servicing as well, ranging from dogs, cats, and other types of pets.
About: Residential pet and property care is different than sending your animal to a boarding facility or relying on daily check-ins. With boarding, you can't guarantee your pet receives the individual attention they need or maintains their home routine. With quick visits, there's no real security presence or time to notice if something's wrong. As an independent pet and property caretaker, my mission is to provide estate-level care that gives you complete peace of mind—your pets stay comfortable in their own home, and your property is truly looked after, not just checked on. I've been caring for animals since I was 10 years old—yes, 10! What started as a young girl's passion (slight obsession, honestly) turned into 13 years of trusted, professional pet care. I've cared for everything from easy-going family dogs to high-maintenance breeds requiring special medical attention, and for periods ranging from long weekends to month-long stays, including major holidays. What clients tell me sets me apart is my ability to really read animals—I pick up on subtle changes in behavior, body language, and those little cues that tell you something's off before it becomes a problem. I'm not just going through the motions; I genuinely love what I do, and that enthusiasm shows in how I care for your pets and home. Over the years, I've built long-lasting relationships with both pets and their owners because I treat every home like my own and every pet like family. My husband and I work as a team for overnight stays, which means double the attention, playtime, and eyes on your property. I specialize in situations that require extra care and attention: ✓ Special needs and senior pets – blind, deaf, mobility-challenged, or behaviorally complex animals ✓ Complex medication schedules – pills, injections, eye drops, you name it ✓ High-maintenance breeds – Breeds requiring special care, require extensive grooming, intense exercise, and dedicated training. ✓ Extended stays – comfortable caring for your pets for weeks or even months at a time ✓ Holiday care – I don't disappear during Thanksgiving, Christmas, or New Year's when you need help most ✓ Medical monitoring – recognizing early signs of illness, decline, or distress ✓ Multi-pet households – managing different personalities, feeding schedules, and needs ✓ Emergency response – calm under pressure, quick to act if something goes wrong ✓ Anxious or reactive pets – patient, consistent care that helps nervous animals feel secure I maintain your home just as carefully—mail, plants, trash bins, security checks, and that "lived-in" presence that keeps your property safe. You'll receive regular photo and video updates so you can truly relax while you're away. If you're looking for someone who will love and protect your pets (and home) like their own, let's connect. Pet care isn't a side hustle for me—it's my primary focus and passion. My husband and I are entrepreneurs with flexible schedules, which means we can provide the kind of attentive, present care that pets truly need. For overnight stays, we're in your home from evening through the following morning (and throughout the day if needed), so your pets are never alone for extended periods. We don't juggle multiple clients at once or rush between appointments. When we commit to caring for your pets, they have our full attention for the duration of your trip. We're available for extended stays including weekends, holidays, and even month-long commitments. Because we work as a team, your pets benefit from having two consistent caregivers who can coordinate schedules, provide extra play sessions, and ensure someone is always nearby if needed. In Your Home: I've been around animals literally since I was an infant—they've always been my comfort, my joy, and honestly, my obsession. There's something about the presence of animals that just feels like home to me, and that's exactly the energy I bring to your pets and property. As the owner of a young, energetic Miniature Australian Shepherd, I know firsthand what it takes to meet the demands of intelligent, high-energy breeds. I'm devoted to keeping my own dog mentally stimulated, physically tired, and emotionally fulfilled—and I bring that same level of commitment to every pet in my care. Your pets aren't just a job to me; they're loved and treated with the same compassion and attention I give my own. Pet Safety & Care: ✓I follow your routines exactly—feeding times, medication schedules, exercise patterns, and house rules ✓Secure all doors, windows, and gates before letting pets outside (no escape artists on my watch!) ✓Keep toxic plants, foods, and hazards out of reach ✓Monitor pets closely for any changes in behavior, appetite, or health ✓Have your vet information and emergency contacts readily accessible ✓Never introduce your pets to unfamiliar animals or people without permission ✓Provide the mental stimulation and physical activity your pets need to stay happy and healthy Home Security & Cleanliness: ✓Maintain a "lived-in" presence with lights, blinds, and your normal routine ✓Collect mail and packages to avoid signaling an empty home ✓Take trash bins to/from curb on collection days ✓Water plants and maintain your home's appearance ✓Provide regular photo/video updates so you can see everything (and everyone) is doing great ✓I pride myself on attention to detail and cleanliness—you'll come home to a thoroughly cleaned space that exceeds expectations Trust & Respect: I treat your home with the utmost respect—no unauthorized guests ever and I leave your space cleaner than I found it. My husband and I work as a team, which means your pets get double the love and your home gets double the oversight. The best part? When you walk through that door after your trip, your pets will be more giddy than ever to see you—well-exercised, well-loved, and so happy you're home. And you can relax knowing everything was handled with care.

About: I'm quite versatile and can adapt to stressful situations easily, should they arise. I have experience raising my own pets, helping raise others, and training pets. I can provide care for pets of any size, species, and age. I administer medications, provide ample playtime and exercise, and most importantly, snuggle to the heart's content (so long as your pet tolerates it). I've sat in the past for birds, lizards, dogs, cats, and fish, and I'll love your animals nearly as much as you do! I'm quite passionate about keeping spaces clean and comfortable for the pets as well, as I am quite organized and know that nobody wants to work with a disorganized sitter. Pet sitting is my full-time occupation as of right now, so I can be there for your pets whenever they need it. I do have a busy schedule, but I will always ensure that your animals come first and I can be with them as often as they need it. I always ensure that pets are treated as well as the humans in the household. I like to sleep and snuggle with pets, take them where I go as much as is permitted, and play with them outside as often as possible. I am not quick to force animals to spend time with me, I always let them have the choice to approach me first, but if they adjust quickly and enjoy my company, I really lay on the love.

I am open to same day bookings and will also be able to show via phone or in person the place where the onboarding will be held. All services are provided, i will always begin to ask for any diet restrictions, bad habits, and skin conditions. For while in my care i will be feeding, playing, walking, and more than likely bathing your pet so i want to be able to make sure your beloved family pet is well taken care of and comfortable while in my care.
About: Hi, my name is Carly. I myself am a dog mom and I understand how important it is to make sure your loved ones are in good care. I love taking care of animals. They are always part to the family. Growing up I have taken care of many animals for as long as I can remember. I work my schedule around the pet's schedule. Whether it's a quick little walk or long hours of play time. Every pet has their own needs that need to be met in a scheduled time. I personally love to give them my undivided attention. Playing fetch and dog games with them helps build a bond and trust. My dogs love to play fetch and go for walks, so I always set time aside for take them outside for a couple hours to play and go for a walk.
About: I’ve been taking care of all sorts of animals since I was 13, from farm animals to dogs and cats. Many neighbors, family friends and colleagues have trusted me to do quick visits, daytime walks, nightly check ins and even monthly stays. I have experience that varies from training the young ones, to giving the elders lots of love, attention and even medications when needed. I am also very willing to do baths if/when needed! I currently have a part-time job that starts at 6 and ends at 12 Monday and Tuesday, so I would have plenty of time to do any afternoon visits and even weekly stays. I am very flexible and can work around the perfect schedule with you! I am very accommodating when it comes to your fur babies needs. If I’m staying in your home, I will take all animals outside every 2-3 hours to play or go on walks. If stated in instructions, I can also take dogs to a dog park or on car rides when I go to the store. If there is a certain route for walks to take, I will also do that. Anything you’d like, I can do!

“Wendy is wonderful! They have a very professional setup, from air conditioned kennels, to individual kennels/runs for each dog, and keeping us informed on how the dogs were doing during their stay. When we picked up our dogs up they were happy and healthy. I will definitely be a returning customer!”
“Mikey took great care of our bernedoodle, Mocha. Mocha was walked & cared for like a member of Mikey’s family. Mikey sent pictures & video updates of Mocha during her stay. I would highly recommend Mikey to care for your dog!”
“My dog seemed happy during her stay while we were vacationing in the area. Heidi had great communication with quick responses and accommodated the times we needed for drop off and pick up. I appreciated the pictures she sent. It was nice to have our dog with a family rather than in a kennel. Would recommend and use again if we head that way. Thank you!”
“My dog Artie is in a very good mood after staying with Travis and his family in their cozy house. He also looks pretty happy on all the nice pictures shared by Travis and, certainly, would love to visit his new friends again. I fully share Artie's feelings and strongly recommend to anyone looking for a great dog care opportunity to get in touch with Travis.”
“Oscar spent a few days with Heather and was clearly well looked after, relaxed and happy. The communication was great and it's always nice to receive pictures and updates—I can only recommend Heather and would happily book with her again. Cheers!”
“Shaunett was amazing! She took wonderful care of our pup! Each day I received updates with how our dog was doing while we were away, the activities they did together— like playtime, walks and car rides— all of which our dog loves! Shaunett sent several photos and we could see how much our dog was enjoying their time together. I’m looking forward to having Shaunett watch our pup in the future— so much so that I will likely adjust my dates to meet her availability!!! Thank you!!”
“The Best Dog Sitter Experience. Ashley and her family were Amazing. They treated our dog Rosie like their own. Rosie normally has anxiety and doesn’t eat at the kennel or when we are away. She had not of that with Ashley and Robbie. They were so concerned about her wellbeing. They kept us updated with regular posts and videos and pics. In fact, I was a little worried that Rosie might not want to come home. We will definitely use Ashely again, and never kennel if we can help it.”
“Kelly and her family were great! Our puppy Clover loved them and their dogs. Kelly sent pictures daily which I appreciated very much. I definitely recommend her!”
“Our dog Sam had an amazing experience staying with Isabelle and Fred. It was short notice, and they made it an amazing experience throughout. They took such good care of him, even made him Christmas dog treats! Highly recommend”
“Suzanne and her family took great care of my timid Brittany. We had never been separated before, and it was only the 2nd time in her 6 years of life that she spent nights away from home. Suzanne's son spent a lot of time with her, coaxing her into trusting him and feeling safe with the new situation. Suzanne sent me pictures and text updates, letting me know how my dog was doing at settling in with them. By the time I returned from my trip, Jolie was feeling at home with Suzanne and her family. My ability to enjoy my vacation with my family was made possible by the care and attentiveness Suzanne focused on my dog. I would definitely board Jolie with Suzanne again. I highly recommend her to anyone who wants a good, caring home environment for their dog when they have to leave them for a while.”
“Ziggy had a great time with Leaha and Snowy! She was accommodating with pick up & drop-off and sent lots of updates. I highly recommend Leaha and plan to use her in the future.”
“Boone had sooo much fun at Rebeccas! Their home has so much area for the dogs to run and be outside, it made me feel so good knowing he was outside so much! She was very responsive and sent lots of pics! I will definitely be using Rebecca again!”
“Stephanie was beyond fantastic! She was incredibly responsive and gave great check ins on how my pup was doing. She is incredibly kind, patient and caring to both pup and owner alike. I find myself so lucky to have found her! 10/10 would recommend.”
