“Our small dog Marty had an overnight stay here, and we're thrilled with how well she was cared for. We received updates and photos during the stay, which always puts me at ease. My dog seemed happy and relaxed.”
“Danielle and her family were absolutely incredible with my dog, Pretzel! From the moment I dropped him off, I could tell he was going to be fully embraced as part of their family. She provided timely updates, photos, and messages that truly put my mind at ease — and honestly made me miss my boy even more in the sweetest way. Pretzel was active, engaged, and showered with cuddles — exactly the kind of love and attention he receives at home. It genuinely felt like while I was on vacation, he was on one too! The level of care Danielle and her family provided was exceptional. When I brought Pretzel home, I could even tell he felt the “void” of leaving them — which speaks volumes about how loved and comfortable he was in their care. I am beyond grateful and already looking forward to my next trip knowing Pretzel will be in such amazing hands. Highly, highly recommend! 🐶✨”
“I can’t speak highly enough about Shalyn, Joe, and their family. We went away for an extended period of time and were adamant about finding the perfect dog sitter for our girl Lucy, and that’s exactly what we found. From the moment they took her in, they made Lucy part of their family. Not to mention, she found a new best friend in their German Shepherd, Sadie. Every single day, I received photos and videos of them playing nonstop. It was incredibly heartwarming, and I couldn’t have been happier knowing Lucy was in such loving and capable hands. Just to put things in perspective, Shalyn, Joe, and family are about a 40 minute drive from our home, but they will always be our go to whenever we need care for Lucy. Thank you so much for everything. You are sincerely the best.”
“Once again, Jessica and her family are the perfect hosts for my Bear. This is the third time he has stayed with him and I can tell he is getting the very best care I could possibly ask for. She’s great about sending pictures and letting me know how things are going. I can’t say enough about Jessica!”
“Carolyn was great with my Bailey. She showed sincere care and concern for his well-being. I could tell when I picked him up that he was not anxious and that he enjoyed his time.”
“I felt that Marble was in good hands and didn’t have to worry about him at all during our trip while he was with Bath. He seemed very happy in the pictures she sent on his walks! Thank you!”
“Ashley was great! She responded to my request almost immediately, was able to take care of my puppy upon very short notice, and she sent me cute pictures and videos throughout his short stay. I will definitely request Ashley again if we need a sitter.”
“Carla was so great to work with! She shared so many videos and pictures of our pooch playing in the backyard and it was so amazing to see! I loved the fact that she treated our dog like he was one of her own. She really helped put our nerves to rest throughout the whole process and I would definitely be booking with Carla again!”
“Dorothy is amazing and we couldn’t recommend her enough. She took the time to get to know my pup and her needs, and sent many updates while we were away. We are happy to have found someone we trust so much!”
About: I bring positive energy, patience, and lots of love to every dog I care for. I work with dogs of all ages and focus on creating a stress-free, fun, and comforting experience through play, cuddles, walks, and attentive care. I take time to learn each dog's personality and needs so they feel safe, happy, and loved-- and I keep owners connected with updates and photos so they know their pup is in great hands. I am home from work for the summer. I am a full-time elementary school teacher during the school year, so I am very flexible and can make my own schedule. I am able to accommodate a variety of needs/ requests. I have a fully fenced backyard, and a senior female dog who is super social with other dogs and people. I will work with you to ensure your dog's needs are met and his/ her schedule remains the same as in their permanent home.
“Highly recommend Cheryl! She was very kind. She was an excellent communicator and responded immediately to my emails. She sent me daily updates with photos. I was able to enjoy my weekend away knowing my dog was safe and well cared for.”
“Barb is a true dog lover and such a kind person! We felt very comfortable having our dog stay with her and her two dogs. They got along very well and her daily text updates and photos reassured us that things were going well and no need to worry! Highly recommend Barb as a trusted dog caretaker!”
“Michele was AMAZING with our pup! From the moment we met her, we could tell she truly loves animals and treats them like her own. She sent us fun updates and the cutest pictures, and it was clear our dog was having the best time. We came home to a happy, relaxed pup who was clearly well cared for (and maybe a little spoiled in the best way!). Michele is reliable, warm, and goes above and beyond—we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Emily and family treated our Briggs like their own. They went on walks, cozied up by the fire and had a sleepover in the living room because he can’t get up stairs very well. I was sent pictures and he looked happy and content! We will be sure to give Emily a call next time we need someone to watch Briggs!”
“Tricia was awesome! Her dogs are so cute & you can tell she really loves animals as this is all she does so her main priority is your babies. We got so many texts while we were away which we thought was amazing. Knowing our babies were happy & doing good made us feel really good about leaving them with her. They loved her & she loved them too & my little Bella was super tired when we got her back and napping all night which was such a relief. We can’t wait to have them stay with her again and I’m sure they’ll be excited too!”
“Erika did a fantastic job caring for our dogs. Since this was our first vacation in several years, I was nervous about leaving them for an extended period. Lincoln, our senior, requires multiple medications and supplements, and Bella struggles with separation anxiety. Erika and Ryan were so reassuring during the meet-and-greet that I felt at ease immediately; seeing Bella flip over for belly rubs was the best sign! While we were away, we received photo and video updates twice a day. I loved her comments and how she picked up on our dogs personalities 😊 It was clear the dogs were happy, enjoyed their numerous walks, and was never left alone. I’m so grateful to have found Erika and Ryan —they truly understood our dogs' needs and gave them so much love!”
“Melynda was amazing, she responded quickly when I messaged her. She made sure we had a meet & greet prior to our dogs stay which was great so we knew everyone would get a long & so she had a more thorough understanding of the care our dogs needed. We got picture & text updates each day which I loved so knew my babies were happy. They came home very happy & tired even our little 6 month old corgi was napping all night which is rare for her lol!”
“Loved having Jess take care of our big pup! He was welcomed into her family for our extended vacation and he immediately felt comfortable and at home! (He’s a little anxious so this was a big deal!). We got regular updates and photos. Will 100% use her again!”
“Dickson was absolutely wonderful with Charlie! He sent frequent videos and photo updates, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. Charlie is 12 years old and diabetic, she stayed on her eating schedule and received her insulin shots on time — Dickson handled everything perfectly and with such care. I felt completely comfortable knowing she was safe, happy, and enjoying time playing in his fenced backyard. You can truly tell he loves animals and treats them like family. This was such a great experience, and I will absolutely have Charlie stay with him any time. Highly recommend Dickson to any friends or family looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!!”

“Chloe is a fantastic sitter for our cats! They have really taken to her, even our shy girl cat. Her daily reports are a welcome part of our mornings when we're away from home. Extremely friendly and reliable, she's the perfect sitter for your animals!”
“I appreciate the care and time Kristin gave to my boy while I was away! She sent updates and pictures and was available to come out prior to my time away in order to meet my cat and learn a bit about him. Would definitely recommend!”
“Natalie is really great at what she does. She fills me in on what my dog does while walking him and do on… she’s seriously awesome! Flexible and kind. My Bohdi (black lab puppy) lovesssss her!”
“Heather is great to work with! She is very caring and even came over in for an emergency visit while we were away traveling. She is very understanding of cats personalities and works with them. We will definitely have her pet sit for us again!”
“Marcy has been great, we have used her services several times the last few months and have all good things to say. The biggest help is being able to work with the short notices due to my work schedule. Her flexibility has been awesome. My dogs seem to really enjoy her and Marcy has been wonderful to my pups.....”
“When I was looking to board my two cats, I was very nervous since I haven't done this before. When I read Ivonka's reviews, I felt very fortunate to have found her. I received multiple videos during the time and so I could rest assured they were not only taken care of but also enjoyed the company of Ivonka's cats. Ivonka has a wonderful setting for cats to enjoy "home away from home" and her wonderful personality helps cats relax during separation. From now on I will only board with Ivonka in the future. She is a GEM. Thank you for all you have done.”
“Mackenzie was great with our three cats. She showed up at the agreed upon time, took care of our cats and the litter boxes, sent pictures and responded to our messages, we definitely will reach out to her again when we need help!”
About: I have several years of experience caring for cats and truly love spending time with cats. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to check in on their cats while they’re away. I always ensure that the cats are well-taken care of and always feel comfortable when they’re in my care. I understand that every cat has a different temperament, so I’m patient and attentive to their needs, whether they love to play or prefer a calm, quiet environment. I’m very reliable and happy to send photo updates so you can feel confident your cat is well cared for while you’re away.
About: I am experienced in administering medicinal injections, nail trimming and teeth brushing of larger breeds, lifting 60+ lbs, pad and potty training, and assisting senior and special needs dogs. I currently work remote and spend most of the day with my own pup by my side. We go to the nearby dog park at least weekly, go on two 20-25 minute walks (1mi+) daily, and play regularly throughout the day. He is very friendly and happy to tag along for any walks or play times, if the company is welcomed. I have a large crate available, if needed, and an in ground stake in the front and back yard with 30ft leads attached, allowing for plenty of time outside in shaded and unshaded areas. Food bowls are cleaned after every meal and pet waste is cleaned up after every trip outside.
About: Please note that I did change my first name legally a few years back which you may observe in the reviews. I’ve owned cats my whole life. I have adopted senior cats for comfort care at the end of their life, and young one ready for a forever home. I have fostered with several organizations.
About: I have been a cat mama for 14 years. My diva girl, Bean, made me a fur mama. Not only have I taken care of mine—which have had special needs and medications. I help take care of other families babies while they are away. Some say I’m the only one they trust!
“Krysta was AMAZING. We were able to completely relax on our vacation knowing our cat was in great hands she had no issues giving him his insulin and she was on time every single day. We will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Rachael did an amazing job taking care of our babies! We loved the photo and video updates at each session! We would definitely rebook and recommend anyone else to book with Rachael! Thanks!!”

“I have a cat that requires subcutaneous fluids and I needed someone to drop in while I was on vacation to give those to her and I couldn’t have asked for anyone better than Meg! She did such a great job, communicated well, I trusted her completely, and her care meant that I could relax and enjoy my vacation instead of worrying about my cat. If I ever needed someone to look after my cat again, I’d happily rebook with Meg.”

“I can’t speak highly enough about Shalyn, Joe, and their family. We went away for an extended period of time and were adamant about finding the perfect dog sitter for our girl Lucy, and that’s exactly what we found. From the moment they took her in, they made Lucy part of their family. Not to mention, she found a new best friend in their German Shepherd, Sadie. Every single day, I received photos and videos of them playing nonstop. It was incredibly heartwarming, and I couldn’t have been happier knowing Lucy was in such loving and capable hands. Just to put things in perspective, Shalyn, Joe, and family are about a 40 minute drive from our home, but they will always be our go to whenever we need care for Lucy. Thank you so much for everything. You are sincerely the best.”
“Carolyn was great with my Bailey. She showed sincere care and concern for his well-being. I could tell when I picked him up that he was not anxious and that he enjoyed his time.”
“I felt that Marble was in good hands and didn’t have to worry about him at all during our trip while he was with Bath. He seemed very happy in the pictures she sent on his walks! Thank you!”
“Ashley was great! She responded to my request almost immediately, was able to take care of my puppy upon very short notice, and she sent me cute pictures and videos throughout his short stay. I will definitely request Ashley again if we need a sitter.”
“Carla was so great to work with! She shared so many videos and pictures of our pooch playing in the backyard and it was so amazing to see! I loved the fact that she treated our dog like he was one of her own. She really helped put our nerves to rest throughout the whole process and I would definitely be booking with Carla again!”
“Dorothy is amazing and we couldn’t recommend her enough. She took the time to get to know my pup and her needs, and sent many updates while we were away. We are happy to have found someone we trust so much!”
About: I bring positive energy, patience, and lots of love to every dog I care for. I work with dogs of all ages and focus on creating a stress-free, fun, and comforting experience through play, cuddles, walks, and attentive care. I take time to learn each dog's personality and needs so they feel safe, happy, and loved-- and I keep owners connected with updates and photos so they know their pup is in great hands. I am home from work for the summer. I am a full-time elementary school teacher during the school year, so I am very flexible and can make my own schedule. I am able to accommodate a variety of needs/ requests. I have a fully fenced backyard, and a senior female dog who is super social with other dogs and people. I will work with you to ensure your dog's needs are met and his/ her schedule remains the same as in their permanent home.
“Highly recommend Cheryl! She was very kind. She was an excellent communicator and responded immediately to my emails. She sent me daily updates with photos. I was able to enjoy my weekend away knowing my dog was safe and well cared for.”
“Barb is a true dog lover and such a kind person! We felt very comfortable having our dog stay with her and her two dogs. They got along very well and her daily text updates and photos reassured us that things were going well and no need to worry! Highly recommend Barb as a trusted dog caretaker!”
“Michele was AMAZING with our pup! From the moment we met her, we could tell she truly loves animals and treats them like her own. She sent us fun updates and the cutest pictures, and it was clear our dog was having the best time. We came home to a happy, relaxed pup who was clearly well cared for (and maybe a little spoiled in the best way!). Michele is reliable, warm, and goes above and beyond—we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Emily and family treated our Briggs like their own. They went on walks, cozied up by the fire and had a sleepover in the living room because he can’t get up stairs very well. I was sent pictures and he looked happy and content! We will be sure to give Emily a call next time we need someone to watch Briggs!”
“Erika did a fantastic job caring for our dogs. Since this was our first vacation in several years, I was nervous about leaving them for an extended period. Lincoln, our senior, requires multiple medications and supplements, and Bella struggles with separation anxiety. Erika and Ryan were so reassuring during the meet-and-greet that I felt at ease immediately; seeing Bella flip over for belly rubs was the best sign! While we were away, we received photo and video updates twice a day. I loved her comments and how she picked up on our dogs personalities 😊 It was clear the dogs were happy, enjoyed their numerous walks, and was never left alone. I’m so grateful to have found Erika and Ryan —they truly understood our dogs' needs and gave them so much love!”
“Melynda was amazing, she responded quickly when I messaged her. She made sure we had a meet & greet prior to our dogs stay which was great so we knew everyone would get a long & so she had a more thorough understanding of the care our dogs needed. We got picture & text updates each day which I loved so knew my babies were happy. They came home very happy & tired even our little 6 month old corgi was napping all night which is rare for her lol!”
“Loved having Jess take care of our big pup! He was welcomed into her family for our extended vacation and he immediately felt comfortable and at home! (He’s a little anxious so this was a big deal!). We got regular updates and photos. Will 100% use her again!”
“Dickson was absolutely wonderful with Charlie! He sent frequent videos and photo updates, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. Charlie is 12 years old and diabetic, she stayed on her eating schedule and received her insulin shots on time — Dickson handled everything perfectly and with such care. I felt completely comfortable knowing she was safe, happy, and enjoying time playing in his fenced backyard. You can truly tell he loves animals and treats them like family. This was such a great experience, and I will absolutely have Charlie stay with him any time. Highly recommend Dickson to any friends or family looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!!”
“Amazing sitter! You can tell she genuinely loves dogs. My pup was so happy, looks like he was taken care of really well. Easy and quick communication. Received updates during the stay. Will definitely use her service again.”
About: I've been taking care of animals since I was 14, and they are part of my love language! I've taken care of and have had a wide variety of pets, dog sizes, and different medical needs. Part of my life's calling is to be with animals and give them all the love. We live on a 7-acre farmette, with land to roam and play, and forest as well. We have a barn that houses 23 free range chickens and ducks. These are also my pets who I love dearly. I have 2 cats, a brother and sister names George and Lucy who are total love bugs. My daughter Teagan is almost 6, and has been around animals since she was a baby. I am currently working full time, 40 hours a week, Monday-Friday. I work remotely from my house on Fridays. I am off on Saturday and Sunday all day. We live on a 7-acre farm in a two-story house with privacy. Our house has plenty of room to accommodate different dog sizes. Our acreage also provides plenty of room for dogs to run and play!
“Victoria was amazing with our Golden Retriver Daisy. She always sent us pictures and treated her as if she was her own. She is very friendly and professional. We highly recommend her. We feel so blessed to have met her!”
