“Wendy and her husband were so nice during the meet and great and tour of their vast property. The property had a great country feel and lots of space for our dog to play with supervision. She explained how the dog kennels worked, which were a great size with open air and heated indoor area. Wendy answered all of our questions and was a great communicator before, during and after. Our Golden Retriever gravitated to her from day one. She was boarded from drop off on 11/22 to pickup on 11/29. Absolutely loved the videos and photos she sent during that time showing our girl happy and playing her heart out. Upon arriving back at home our golden had a nice long nap and was back to her normal routine upon waking up, which says a lot. We felt the boarding fees were appropriate and are grateful to have found Wendy. We would highly recommend her and will continue using her services.”
“Kim and David were wonderful with our dog, Scout. Their home was very comfortable and he clearly enjoyed his visit with them. They were very attentive to his needs and even treated his eye when it became irritated while we were away. We look forward to having them keep him again when we travel in the future.”
“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!”
“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.”
About: My father taught me about life by giving me pets since I was able to walk. Animals are a gift and should be treated like they are family. I work full time, but I still have plenty of time to take care of your pets. Having a small farm myself, my kids, who are older, pitch in to give animals all the care and love they need! I have a fenced in property and enclosed kennels for exercise. I also enjoy taking them on walks and playing ball with them outside. Any specific requests will try to be honored…
“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.”
“Lindsey, Leland, and their kids took amazing care of our 13-year-old Golden Retriever, Callie. She had injured her back leg about a month before her stay, and they were incredibly thoughtful in managing her needs. They made sure she got all her medications and adjusted her walks based on what she could handle. I’m pretty sure Callie felt like she was at a spa—between the gentle attention, extra brushing, and love from their three wonderful kids, she was clearly in great hands. I accidentally mixed up the pickup date by a day, but Lindsey and Leland were incredibly accommodating and kept Callie that extra day without hesitation. I was so relieved, knowing she wouldn’t have to be shuffled to a different home just for one night. Throughout her stay, they regularly updated us with photos—Callie lounging in the grass, out on a walk, or happily curled up in someone’s lap. The peace of mind they gave us was priceless. If I could give Lindsey and Leland six stars, or more, I absolutely would. They went above and beyond in every way.”
“Our pup Fern had a wonderful 3 day visit with Ashley. She has a lovely house and fully fenced backyard for playing. Fern loved playing with her dog Penny. Ashley provided multiple daily updates and photos to keep us assured that Fern was doing well and having a great time. Highly recommend. We will definitely use her again.”
“Mikey is like another mom by now for our two dogs. She is so wonderful with them and makes them feel as though they are in their own house or somewhere loving like grandma house. She had a lot of work to do with one of our dogs (physical therapy) and it was no problem for her. She went out of her way to get them their favorite dog food and a lick mat too. She is the absolute best! My dogs have a blast when they are at her house and I never have to worry about them missing us when we leave them.”
“Hallie took great care of our small senior pup, Finnegan while we were away. She sent lots of photos (which we loved) of their adventures. Lots of walks & even some beach time! We will definitely be reaching out again in the future if you need care.”
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 :)
“Kara did an excellent job caring for our dog and took care of him as if he was her own dog. She was willing and able to keep his general daily routine which kept him comfortable, happy and healthy. She was attentive to his needs and sent regular updates with photos. Kara is a wonderful and loving sitter and I highly recommend her.”
“This was the first time we left our puppy Oakley and we were so nervous! Tammy put us right at ease from the beginning and she was so accommodating to Oakley’s needs. She was great to send messages and pictures daily of the things going on each day. Thanks Tammy for taking great care of our pup!”
“Miriam was absolutely wonderful with my dog Daisy. Miriam and her entire family worked around Daisy’s special needs and gave her the best time ever. I’m pretty sure Daisy did not want to return home after spending 3 days in doggy heaven with Miriam.”
“Rebecca was great! From meet and greet to pick up we’d definitely recommend. Our pup was tired and happy when he got home from his weekend with her. She gave us peace of mind by sending photo updates and was easy to work with for pick up and drop off. Her place is a doggy heaven, lots of space and friends to explore it with.”
“Absolutely incredible sitter — cannot recommend enough! We found Autumn last minute for the holidays and honestly feel so lucky that we did. From the moment we met her, we knew Izzy was in the best possible hands. She has extensive dog training experience, and her own dogs have won competitions — and it really shows in the calm, confident, and loving way she cares for every pup. Izzy stayed inside her home, which made such a difference for us. It felt like she was staying with family, not boarding. We rarely leave Izzy, so I was extremely nervous — but Autumn immediately put us at ease with her knowledge, communication, and genuine love for dogs. She provided updates, made sure Izzy felt comfortable, and treated her like one of her own. This was hands down the best boarding experience we could have hoped for. If you’re looking for someone who is: • Highly experienced • Skilled in training • Kind, patient, and trustworthy • Offers a true home environment — look no further. We will absolutely use her again and recommend her without hesitation to anyone who wants the very best care for their dog. 🐾🐾💛🐾🐾”

I love hiking with my dogs and taking them to the lake My dogs are super friendly and love having other dogs around to play with. I can watch dogs in my home or yours. Also available for walks
“This was our first time ever using Rover, and we couldn't be happier with our experience! They took such incredible care of our dog and truly treated her like one of their own. It was obvious she felt comfortable, loved, and well cared for the entire time she was there. She got along so well with their dog, and they played hard every single day, which made us so happy to see. We also really appreciated the regular updates, photos, and communication while we were away. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was in such good hands. We would highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and attentive to watch their dog. We wouldn't hesitate to book with them again!”
“Their communication was great. They took our 8-month old puppy (Betty) into their family for 3 nights. They asked if I was OK if she went on a family hike and sent pictures of Betty on the hike. The whole family is kind and welcoming. Betty enjoyed her time there.”

About: I am a stay at home mom of two awesome kiddos, one handsome border collie(Steve) and a large orange furry feline(Samson). We also have a couple of rowdy goats and a flock of beloved chickens. We are blessed to live on a heavenly bit of land (40 acres) with woods, ponds and creeks. It truly is a bit of paradise. We love animals here and thought, "Why not share our blessings with the critters of our community?" If you need care for pet so they are not alone all day and dont want them caged in kennel all day please give us a call! We have a fenced yard if your should need it and plenty of space for them to safely explore. I am available all day to help with the difficult potty training of some of our tiniest fur babies:) I look forward to meeting you!
“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.”
“Cheyenne did a great job taking care of our cat “Leo” while we were gone. She answered our request promptly and came the same day for meet and instructions. Thanks to her our plants stayed alive while we were gone in the almost 100 degree heat because she did some watering as well and we really appreciated that. Leo seemed well taken care of when we returned.”
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: 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: All my life I have had a pets in my home, I grew up with my mother working as a veterinarian so we had everything ranging from dogs, cats, reptiles and birds, therefore, I am not shy or timid around any animal and I know what I’m doing. I am new to the area but I have pet sat multiple times for other families in the past weather that be staying at their house or just stopping by every now and then and even just dog walking, I’m experienced with it all! I am willing to go above and beyond for your pet and can work with any of their or your needs. I’ve just moved to the area to live with my boyfriend. We leave in mid January for 6 weeks on a trip but until then I am fully available to help in any way needed especially through the holidays! I would say my best asset is my experience dealing with senior pets. In the past 5 years I’ve dealt with 3 senior pets and given them the extra care and attention needed to help them stay comfortable and happy in their old age.
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: 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.
“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.”
“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.”
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!
“Gabby and Kade are wonderful pet sitters. They make sure to follow any instructions given and always send pictures of each visit! Will definitley be using them again. I feel confident my cats are in good hands with Gabby and Kade when I am away!”
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 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: 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)!
“We left Stephanie with 2 over 60-lb puppies (they are not yet a year old) for 3 weeks of daycare and she did awesomely. They had the time of their lives. Lots and lots of exercise, smells galore, not only on her 20 acre property, but she took them to special places - like a beach, where they ran and ran. She send me pictures regularly while we were away on our trip to Japan, so we didn't worry and could see them thriving. Some days when our son would pick them up, they didn't want to come home! Can't give her a higher recommendation.”
“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.”
“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! 💕”
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 have experience with training and dog behaviors. I can crate my pets or yours if needed. I have split fenced backyard and a large outdoor kennel. I believe in positive reinforcement and boundaries. I respect dog behaviors and special 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. 🐾”
“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'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.
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. I am retired with nothing to do so Alex and I have all of the time in the world to love and care for your furbabies I have two plus acres and a friendly dog to play and keep company. Your pet will be kept safe and dry in the house with us
“Lindsey and Leland were so nice towards us and our 4 month old puppy. It was our first time using Rover so we were a bit nervous but they made us feel beyond comfortable. Definitely will be reaching out when we need our pup watched again! Thank you!!”

I also have experience caring for other animals like cats, chickens, ducks, goats, etc. Just show me what you need done and I’ll get it done. I’m here because I absolutely adore animals.

I am a responsible person, with a relatively laidback lifestyle. I won’t be out late and I won’t leave your dog alone for long periods of time. I have an extremely close bond with my own dogs and see them as important members of our home. I will treat your pets the same way. I work from home, so my schedule is pretty flexible, but to house sit, I will need internet access. In the afternoons I may need to leave for a short period (2-3 hours) to spend time with my family. I like to care for your pet the same way you would. I prefer that your pets feel like it’s just another day. As a pet owner myself, I understand the nerves that come with entrusting your pets to another person. I aim to alleviate that stress and anxiety as much as possible— for you and your pet!
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.

About: Hello, I'm David, I've grown up with and have been around pets all my life. I love animals, care for and play with them as if they were my own. Over the years, I have had many opportunities to provide the love, attention, exercise, and care that all pets deserve, for friends or family member pets, and I will happily do the same for your loved ones, whenever needed. My schedule is flexible and open. In those rare times where my availability on my calendar does not line up with the dates you're seeking pet care, please contact me as I will do my best to accommodate! I enjoy caring for pets in the home they are familiar with, and are comforted being in. Local walks in the neighborhood, playing fetch, rubbing ears and bellies, and yummy treats make for a fun filled, well exercised, and happy family member at the end of day!
About: Hi, I'm Stephanie, and this is my husband Luke. We're your Critter Companions, and with us, two is always better. For overnight stays we work as a team, which means double the attention, double the playtime, and an extra set of eyes on your property. We specialize in residential pet and property care. As independent caretakers, our mission is 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. ✦ What We Specialize In We're especially comfortable with the pets and situations that need extra care and attention: ✓ Special needs and senior pets (blind, deaf, mobility-challenged, or behaviorally complex) ✓ Complex medication schedules: pills, injections, eye drops, you name it ✓ High-maintenance breeds that need extensive grooming, intense exercise, or dedicated training ✓ Extended stays, comfortably caring for your pets for weeks or even months at a time ✓ Holiday care, because I don't disappear during Thanksgiving, Christmas, or New Year's ✓ Multi-pet households, managing different personalities, feeding schedules, and needs ✓ Anxious or reactive pets, with patient, consistent care that helps nervous animals feel secure ✦ A Little About Us We were both raised around animals, but I turned that passion into my life's work. I've been caring for animals since I was 10 years old, the neighborhood's trusted pet sitter long before it was a profession. Thirteen years later, I've cared for everything from easy-going family dogs to high-maintenance breeds with special medical needs, for stays ranging from long weekends to month-long holidays. What clients tell me sets me apart is how I read animals. I pick up on the subtle changes in behavior, body language, and those little cues that tell you something's off before it becomes a problem. I'm not going through the motions; I love what I do, and that enthusiasm shows in how I care for your pets and your home. ✦ Your Home, Cared For I look after 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. ✦ Values You Can Trust Beyond the practical care, we believe the people you let into your home matter just as much as the work they do. We love the Lord, and our faith in Jesus shapes how we run our business and how we treat what's entrusted to us. For us that means a simple, steady lifestyle: we don't drink, smoke, party, or invite guests into your home. While you're away, your house stays exactly as it should, quiet, respected, and cared for, with nothing happening under your roof that you wouldn't welcome yourself. When you hand us your keys, you're trusting us with your home and your family. We take that seriously, and we hold ourselves to it no matter the circumstances. ✦ Let's Connect Over the years I've built lasting relationships with pets and their owners because I treat every home like my own and every pet like family. I'd be honored to earn that same trust from you. 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.

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: 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: 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!

“Thank you Gabby and Kade! Very reliable and flexible. I could tell fin was well walked when I got home from work and I appreciated it so much that they came for a meet and greet before his scheduled walks as well.”
About: I've been taking care of dogs of every kind since i was 7 years old. I also started my own dog walking business in the 6th grade walking neighbors, family, and friends dogs. As well as training my own dogs with potty training skills and adaptability. I also do well with un-trained dogs who are combative and temperamental by having completed a dog school training class. Your cherished pet will be handled with care, love, and in the best hands possible. 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: I love all animals and all breeds. Since I was young I have been caring for and around numerous types and breeds of animals. I have learned that much like people every dog, cat, lizard, etc has its own personality and needs. Im ready and willing to give your pets the best care and love imaginable while you're away. Im not afraid of difficult animals with harder temperaments. Im patient and want to be your pets new friend. This will be one of the main ways I earn money in parallel with Uber eats. If I take a pet sit job it will be prioritized over UberEats. My days and nights are pretty open. Im a single father of an almost 3 year old little girl. She loves animals too and if your fur baby is ok with kids she would love to play as well. I will follow all stipulations and requests for your pet to help keep their routine and keep them comfy and happy. I have a decent sized property. Some fenced. Most open. We are out in chattaroy so not much of the city by us. If your pets like other dogs/animals we do have 3 dogs that regularly visit the property. They all 3 are extremely friendly and playful. As I said above I will follow all regimens and requests by owner to keep your pets happy and comfortable in their routine.
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: 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'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.

“Wendy and her husband were so nice during the meet and great and tour of their vast property. The property had a great country feel and lots of space for our dog to play with supervision. She explained how the dog kennels worked, which were a great size with open air and heated indoor area. Wendy answered all of our questions and was a great communicator before, during and after. Our Golden Retriever gravitated to her from day one. She was boarded from drop off on 11/22 to pickup on 11/29. Absolutely loved the videos and photos she sent during that time showing our girl happy and playing her heart out. Upon arriving back at home our golden had a nice long nap and was back to her normal routine upon waking up, which says a lot. We felt the boarding fees were appropriate and are grateful to have found Wendy. We would highly recommend her and will continue using her services.”
“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!”
“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.”
About: My father taught me about life by giving me pets since I was able to walk. Animals are a gift and should be treated like they are family. I work full time, but I still have plenty of time to take care of your pets. Having a small farm myself, my kids, who are older, pitch in to give animals all the care and love they need! I have a fenced in property and enclosed kennels for exercise. I also enjoy taking them on walks and playing ball with them outside. Any specific requests will try to be honored…
“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.”
“Lindsey, Leland, and their kids took amazing care of our 13-year-old Golden Retriever, Callie. She had injured her back leg about a month before her stay, and they were incredibly thoughtful in managing her needs. They made sure she got all her medications and adjusted her walks based on what she could handle. I’m pretty sure Callie felt like she was at a spa—between the gentle attention, extra brushing, and love from their three wonderful kids, she was clearly in great hands. I accidentally mixed up the pickup date by a day, but Lindsey and Leland were incredibly accommodating and kept Callie that extra day without hesitation. I was so relieved, knowing she wouldn’t have to be shuffled to a different home just for one night. Throughout her stay, they regularly updated us with photos—Callie lounging in the grass, out on a walk, or happily curled up in someone’s lap. The peace of mind they gave us was priceless. If I could give Lindsey and Leland six stars, or more, I absolutely would. They went above and beyond in every way.”
“Our pup Fern had a wonderful 3 day visit with Ashley. She has a lovely house and fully fenced backyard for playing. Fern loved playing with her dog Penny. Ashley provided multiple daily updates and photos to keep us assured that Fern was doing well and having a great time. Highly recommend. We will definitely use her again.”
“Mikey is like another mom by now for our two dogs. She is so wonderful with them and makes them feel as though they are in their own house or somewhere loving like grandma house. She had a lot of work to do with one of our dogs (physical therapy) and it was no problem for her. She went out of her way to get them their favorite dog food and a lick mat too. She is the absolute best! My dogs have a blast when they are at her house and I never have to worry about them missing us when we leave them.”
“Hallie took great care of our small senior pup, Finnegan while we were away. She sent lots of photos (which we loved) of their adventures. Lots of walks & even some beach time! We will definitely be reaching out again in the future if you need care.”

“Kara did an excellent job caring for our dog and took care of him as if he was her own dog. She was willing and able to keep his general daily routine which kept him comfortable, happy and healthy. She was attentive to his needs and sent regular updates with photos. Kara is a wonderful and loving sitter and I highly recommend her.”
“This was the first time we left our puppy Oakley and we were so nervous! Tammy put us right at ease from the beginning and she was so accommodating to Oakley’s needs. She was great to send messages and pictures daily of the things going on each day. Thanks Tammy for taking great care of our pup!”
“Rebecca was great! From meet and greet to pick up we’d definitely recommend. Our pup was tired and happy when he got home from his weekend with her. She gave us peace of mind by sending photo updates and was easy to work with for pick up and drop off. Her place is a doggy heaven, lots of space and friends to explore it with.”
“Absolutely incredible sitter — cannot recommend enough! We found Autumn last minute for the holidays and honestly feel so lucky that we did. From the moment we met her, we knew Izzy was in the best possible hands. She has extensive dog training experience, and her own dogs have won competitions — and it really shows in the calm, confident, and loving way she cares for every pup. Izzy stayed inside her home, which made such a difference for us. It felt like she was staying with family, not boarding. We rarely leave Izzy, so I was extremely nervous — but Autumn immediately put us at ease with her knowledge, communication, and genuine love for dogs. She provided updates, made sure Izzy felt comfortable, and treated her like one of her own. This was hands down the best boarding experience we could have hoped for. If you’re looking for someone who is: • Highly experienced • Skilled in training • Kind, patient, and trustworthy • Offers a true home environment — look no further. We will absolutely use her again and recommend her without hesitation to anyone who wants the very best care for their dog. 🐾🐾💛🐾🐾”

I love hiking with my dogs and taking them to the lake My dogs are super friendly and love having other dogs around to play with. I can watch dogs in my home or yours. Also available for walks
“This was our first time ever using Rover, and we couldn't be happier with our experience! They took such incredible care of our dog and truly treated her like one of their own. It was obvious she felt comfortable, loved, and well cared for the entire time she was there. She got along so well with their dog, and they played hard every single day, which made us so happy to see. We also really appreciated the regular updates, photos, and communication while we were away. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was in such good hands. We would highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and attentive to watch their dog. We wouldn't hesitate to book with them again!”
“Their communication was great. They took our 8-month old puppy (Betty) into their family for 3 nights. They asked if I was OK if she went on a family hike and sent pictures of Betty on the hike. The whole family is kind and welcoming. Betty enjoyed her time there.”
About: Hi! I’m a dedicated pet professional with 11 years of experience in veterinary medicine, certification in dog training, and active board member to a local animal shelter. So caring for animals is truly my passion and profession. My background allows me to provide a level of attention, safety, and knowledge that goes far beyond typical pet sitting. I’m comfortable caring for pets with a wide range of needs, including puppies who are still learning the basics, senior pets who need extra patience and gentle care, and pets who require medications or special routines. I’m also happy to reinforce training, structure, and good manners during my visits so your dog stays consistent with what they’re learning at home. Your pet’s health, safety, and comfort are always my top priorities. I pay close attention to behavior, body language, and routines so pets feel secure and stress-free while you’re away. Because of my veterinary background, I’m also experienced in monitoring for health concerns and administering medications when needed. Whether your pet needs playtime, structured walks, training reinforcement, or calm companionship, I treat every animal as if they were my own. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I strive to give owners peace of mind through communication, reliability, and professional-level care. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! 🐶🐾 With my current schedule, I wake up early to make sure every dog’s needs are met—whether that’s potty breaks, medication administration, or starting the day on a calm routine. After I return home from work, I spend plenty of time with the dogs for play, exercise, enrichment activities, and their regular feeding routine. My home environment is structured, calm, and designed with dogs’ safety and comfort in mind. With my background in veterinary medicine and dog training, I focus on maintaining clear routines and a low-stress environment so dogs settle in quickly and feel secure. Dogs staying with me follow a consistent daily routine that includes potty breaks, enrichment, rest time, and play. Structure helps dogs relax and prevents overstimulation, which is especially important for puppies, high-energy dogs, or dogs who thrive on predictability. I have a large backyard where dogs can enjoy supervised outdoor time for exercise, play, and mental stimulation. Playtime is always monitored to ensure dogs stay safe and comfortable. For safety and proper rest, I also have Impact Kennels available for structured downtime. Crate time is used as a positive, calm space for dogs to decompress, eat meals, or sleep—similar to the routines many trainers and veterinary professionals recommend. For dogs that enjoy extra activity, I also offer optional hikes and adventure walks, providing additional exercise and enrichment depending on the dog’s energy level and owner preferences. Every dog is different, so I tailor care to their personality, energy level, and routine to help them feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away.
