About: I have experience fostering dogs with the animal shelter APL and have a small toy poodle of my own. He is very friendly with other dogs and loves to play. I love dogs and would love to have the opportunity to watch dogs and take care of others! I am open to watching dogs for a couple hours, a day, or even a couple of days if that is what is needed. My house has a small backyard and I am also available to do drop ins at the dogs own home. The area is very quiet and would be comfortable for another dog to be in. If I am caring for someone else's dog I plan on being home for the time I'm watching the dog so that it will be well taken care of. I’m currently only working part time so I have plenty of time to spend with your animals. I am available early mornings or early afternoons to give your animal a break during the workday! I am also available any time on the weekends. I have a fenced in yard and 2 friendly dogs to keep your dog company. I have a toy poodle and a golden retriever. I can also do drops in to walk or play with your dog as well!
“It was comforting to know that Pepper was in a comfortable space, room to run outside, with plenty of people and pup friends to keep him occupied while we were on vacation! Kyle and Lyndzie sent lots of updates throughout the week too! Gave us peace of mind and we would definitely book with them again!”
About: I have at somepoint had 100+ pets with my ex that we took care of together. I have adopted "agressive" pets only for them just needing a loving home to feel comfortable. We also fostered a bunch of pets to help when APL was struggling for space. I do have a very busy schedule myself. However I make time to spend with our pets. We make homemade food for them and have a bunch of toys for them to play with. My partner is a stay at home spouse so no one gets into too much mischief. I view pets as family members and they have the comfort of laying on the couch and bed with us. We have a decently big yard with a fence for them to run about and have outside time.

About: With years of experience caring for animals, I'm confident in my ability to provide exceptional care for your furry family members. My background includes caring for a variety of pets, from playful puppies to senior cats needing a little extra TLC. I'm adept at handling all aspects of pet care, including feeding, administering medications, and ensuring they get plenty of exercise and enrichment. I'm dedicated to following each pet's unique routine and will treat your companion with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. You can rest assured that your pet will be safe, happy, and comfortable under my care. I am available weekdays after 4:30 PM and any time on weekends to drop in to care for and play with your furry family members. During my drop-in visits, I'll provide fresh food and water, and, of course, give them plenty of love, attention, and playtime. I'll also send photo updates so you can see how happy and comfortable your pet is in the safety of their own home.
“Sarah did an excellent job checking in on my cat while I was on vacation. She met with me beforehand to get to know my pet's needs and sent me update pictures of him while I was gone. It made my trip so much more enjoyable knowing I had a reliable person checking in on him and I will definitely use Sarah again in the future.”
“Mary did awesome with my two kitties! She had them for two weeks and she sent lots of pictures of my babies! She asked many questions to make sure she cared for my kitties in the way I would! I definitely recommend Mary and would let her board my cats again!”
About: I’ve owned/taken care of animals since I was a child. I find great joy in the company of animals, making sure they are well taken care of, and teaching them new things. Experience: Cats: 17+ years Dogs: 10 years Ferrets: 4 years Reptiles: 3 years There are other various small animals I’ve taken care of sporadically but I’m always willing to learn more about any type of animal! I currently work evenings, and would be available most afternoons. Please feel free to message me regarding times in advance. Thanks, and I look forward to hearing from you! I treat each, and every animal as one of my own. I am very conscious of how they are doing, and make sure they get the love, and respect they all deserve! Will provide plenty of pets, and playtime with your animals!
About: We’ve been hugging dogs since we were kids, and we’d love to hug yours! Penny, Ciel, and our family enjoy hosting furry friends - we take care of them and our pups play hard with them! Please note: *We cannot currently accept bookings for unneutered/intact male pups *We host a large, rambunctious group of pups throughout the week - pups who prefer quiet, calm environments may not have an enjoyable experience here, and we will happily recommend sitters who may be a better fit for your family Hosting pups is our full-time job - your pups become part of our family while they’re here! We spend our days with our guests, playing and chatting with them, and can attend to everyone’s needs regularly throughout the day. Our 24/7 dedication to giving your pups the best experience while away from your home makes us a great choice for day care and socialization opportunities! We accept bookings between 7am and 7pm; we will consider bookings outside these hours on a case by case basis, potentially for an additional cost. Our availability for picking up and dropping off is limited but we aim to be as flexible as possible. Reach out with your needs and we’ll work out an arrangement that works best for all of us! Our entire yard is fenced in - there’s room to run full speed! We can adjust feeding schedules as needed to accommodate your dog’s diet. In good weather, pups are free to go inside and outside at their leisure. We don’t require pups to use crates while we’re gone or overnight, but if you prefer your pup be crated at any time, we’re happy to do that and have multiple available. Male pups will wear a belly band for the first 24 hours of their stay, at minimum - this soft, absorbent band fits around their belly and attaches with Velcro on their back. Belly bands reduce marking behavior, especially in unneutered males. You may bring your own, but we can supply them, free of charge. Using belly bands keeps our home calmer, cleaner, and fresher by eliminating marking behavior and reduces anxiety for future pups by giving them less reason to want to mark over the scent of previous pups. We have indoor and outdoor security cameras in many locations that can be helpful to review if any safety situations arise. The safety of all of our pups is very important to us! (They’re also great for catching fun footage!)

Perfect for high energy dogs - Springfield
“Kim did a wonderful job taking care of my dog! When I returned for pick up, my dog she was happy, tired from enjoying extensive play time, and well taken care of. I appreciated the excellent communication and updates throughout the day. I highly recommend Kim! I will definitely reach out to Kim for future bookings and dog daycare needs.”
“Karen cared for our dogs as if they were her own. Lucky and Loogootee enjoyed all the attention they received and running around in her fenced in yard. Our senior dogs wear diapers and Karen washed them for us to have for the rest of our trip. We would definitely book with Karen again!”
“Since our Daisy was one years old; for the past 9 years; she has figured prominently in our travel decisions. We have always acknowledged that she is not friendly with other animals, She will at least acknowledge the authority of the strange adult keepers. As long as they prioritize her needs over the other animals. But, fortunately for us, her needs were to simply allow her to be kept away from the other animals. All that changed when she walked into the home of Kari H.! The first report we received; made us a little jealous. Despite the presence of the two four legged members of the family; our Daisy freely explored the home, went out side and warmly attached herself to the two legged sitters. If she didn’t get excited when we picked her up; I might have thought she was looking to find another forever home. Seriously, this is a home that clearly loves pets. Especially, your pet. They were an answer to prayer!”
“Bentley had a great day with Sara! I was anxious about leaving him somewhere new, and Sara made it much easier with frequent communication and photos while he was there. Bentley was happy and well-cared for! He is looking forward to his next stay ???”
About: In my 10 years of pet sitting, I have had the privilege of caring for countless furry companions, each leaving an indelible mark on my heart. From energetic pups to wise senior dogs, I have witnessed the incredible bond that exists between pets and their owners. Through walks in the park, cozy snuggles, and endless playtime, I have come to understand the true joy and responsibility that comes with providing exceptional care for these beloved family members. My carefully crafted schedule for taking care of pups seamlessly integrates into my lifestyle, ensuring their needs are met while allowing me to maintain a balanced routine. With a structured approach, I provide regular feeding, exercise, and playtime sessions, tailored to each dog's unique requirements. This allows me to accommodate their specific needs while still managing my own commitments, ensuring a harmonious coexistence between their well-being and my personal life. This works especially well with my work from home job! At the forefront of my dog sitting service is a steadfast commitment to the safety, trust, and well-being of every dog under my care. I maintain a secure and pet-friendly environment, meticulously inspecting and childproofing the space to eliminate any potential hazards. With a vigilant eye and responsible supervision, I create a space where dogs can freely explore, play, and interact with peace of mind, fostering a trusting bond between myself and these furry companions.
“Wonderful play day for Maizee! She had such a great time playing with other dogs, balls and getting her belly wet in a swimming pool!! Thank you far all the great photos while we gone.”
“Amy was so great! I was running late and she was in the driveway when I pulled in! My pup loved the yard, playing with pups and I liked getting the pics! See you again sometime Amy!!!”
About: I grew up always having/taking care of dogs. I also pet sit regularly now. I love animals and would love to have this as something to do outside of work! I also have two kitties named Blue and Harley, so have a lot of experience with cheeky cats, too. I currently work from home, so all I need is my hotspot and laptop. I can house sit for you basically for any length of time and any day/time. I have reliable transportation. I try to leave the home as good as or better than I found it. I truly do love caring for animals.
About: I have cared for and watched after a variety of furry friends. Big or small, I love them and often times they love me back. I am currently working from home full time so I will have plenty of time to play with and spoil your fur baby. This also gives me plenty of opportunity to be with some of the babies that aren’t accustomed to being alone throughout the day! I have an open floor plan which allows me to keep an eye on your fur babe at all times. I also have a balcony that helps with getting plenty of fresh air even on cold or rainy days.

About: Hi! I am reliable, friendly and very flexible with my schedule. Dog sitting has been the thing I didn’t know I needed in my life! I wish I could have one of my own but it’s not the right time for me. I would love to care for your pet. I helped raise/train my childhood dog, have taken care of puppies, deaf animals, and gained the approval of a very protective and anxious Doberman with lots of patience and attention (my greatest accomplishment). Any and all instructions you leave for me will be followed with utmost care to keep you and your pet happy! I am a fine artist with a MFA in painting, and I take on interior design and other creative jobs as a freelancer. I will be traveling starting August 25th, but will be back late November. I love being outside, exercising, and hanging at parks, so I’m glad to be joined by a pup and will give them all the love. My routine already involves walks/runs outside and being home a lot, so it fits in great! When i’m not working, I am exercising, planning, making art and reading. I am very available to provide proper pet care and give pets the attention they need. My schedule changes by the days and weeks. In caring for the pet in their home, I make sure to know where everything is that I need and respect the home in making sure the pet doesn’t make a mess.
“Kelly was great with our two dogs. We are not local to the area, so it was great to have her help to find some of the local places to take them for playtime, too. Her rates are very reasonable and she worked with us to find a price that worked for everyone. I would highly recommend Kelly to anyone looking for a pet sitter.”

“Anna is the best! Friendly and communicative, goes above and beyond. I’m always grateful and relieved when she is available and my dogs are always excited to spend time with her when I’m away. Can’t express more gratitude for Anna!”
About: I have had pets my whole life! I have experience with cats, dogs, horses, chickens, fish, frogs, turtles, and small furry critters such as hamsters and rabbits. I Have cared for new born puppies and kittens when the mother was not able and elderly pets that need a little extra love. Pets that are very energetic or relaxed. Pets that are having a hard time medically and need fluids or pain medications. I have cared for wounded animals and healthy ones. I'm available most days during work hours. When your fur baby needs love and care during the day while you are away I can be there for pets, walks, snacks, medications, a simple check in and more. Every animal is it's own self and all need different care. When pet sitting while friends or family are at work or on trips I always make sure the pet has a good long session of play, affection, walk or forms of exercise, clean and full water and food dishes. Check for any accidents that need cleaned up or litter boxes that need tending. Then always be sure to double check the yard and home locks are secure before leaving.
About: I have pet sat dogs, cats, guinea pigs, birds, snakes, ispods, and mantises for neighbors & family on and off for the past 14 years. I have also given pets their medication via oral syringe and tablets, as instructed by their owners. One of my own pets has chronic kidney/ urinary issues so I know how important it is for them to receive the best care possible. Although I may be small in stature, my experience with dogs has been anything but limited. I've taken on the challenge of walking and agility training dogs that weigh more than I do, proving that it's not just size that matters but also heart and dedication. One of my fondest memories from high school involves creating an agility course for our neighbor's bernedoodle puppy, Lambeau. This energetic ball of fur was full of mischief, often clawing at doors, chewing on furniture, and brutally attacking his toys. Understanding his need for stimulation, I devised a series of fun challenges that not only focused his energy but also built a special bond between us. Setting up that obstacle course was an adventure in itself—using cones, tunnels, and homemade jumps, we transformed my backyard into a vibrant training ground. The best part was watching Lambeau navigate the course with increasing confidence, eagerly responding to my encouragement and praise. By using treats as positive reinforcement, he learned quickly that good behavior and hard work would be rewarded, which significantly curbed his destructive tendencies. Watching him thrive both mentally and physically filled me with joy and validated my belief in the power of training and outdoor activity as vital tools for a dog's well-being. The experience solidified my commitment to fostering healthy, happy relationships with dogs, proving that with the right approach, even the most energetic puppy can become a more balanced companion. I am a college student who recently moved to the area and am have a pretty open schedule. My hobbies include crocheting, sewing, gardening, and taking care of my pet Guinea pigs. I love staying active by playing Pokémon Go and would love to care for your dog(s) while going on adventures! I walk around the residential areas and always walk in crosswalks, as safety is my priority.
About: I have a large home in which I can provide a clean safe environment for your fur baby. He or she will get plenty of exercise and adequate potty breaks. I'm committed to giving your fur baby the amount of love and attention they need and desire. I have two teenage children who also love animals and will love your fur baby as if they were their own. My schedule is flexible and I can adapt to your pets needs. I can't wait to meet you and your fur baby. So depending on your dogs preference they may sleep in a kennel, on a dog bed, or anywhere in our home. This a great way for me to be able to enjoy a variety of dogs. I'm currently working part time so your pet will not be on their own very often. I'm am usually available for drop off every day after noon. They get plenty of exercise and love. I will follow all instructions given to me making each pets stay safe and a unique and wonderful experience.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities for over 15 years. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets while they’re away. I’m attentive, patient, and great at reading animal behavior, whether that means giving energetic dogs plenty of exercise or providing calm, gentle care for seniors or anxious pets. I treat every pet as if they were my own. I work part-time and set my own schedule, which allows me to be very flexible and accommodating to my clients’ needs. I’m able to adjust my availability for walks, drop-ins, or extended care, including weekdays and weekends, and I prioritize clear communication to ensure your pet’s routine is followed as closely as possible. I have a fenced-in yard and prioritize a calm, safe environment for all pets in my care. I have two cats who are kept comfortably separated with their own space when dogs are visiting, as I understand transitions can be challenging. I’m very mindful of introductions, happy to crate dogs if needed, and always follow owner preferences and routines to ensure pets feel secure and well cared for.
About: I have had pet cats ever since I was a little girl. Starting in college, I also began to volunteer with animal shelters and rescue programs, and discovered I had a passion for taking care of animals. I don't mind putting in the hard (and dirty) work to make sure your pet gets fed, watered, played with, and has a clean environment to stay in. Pets bring so much joy to our lives, and I would love to help keep your pet happy while you're away. I am available for drop-in visits for cats or dogs. I also have experience administering oral medications and insulin injections to cats and dogs, and nebulizer treatments for cats. I always double check that I am 100% available before confirming any bookings! As I am a resident physician with a highly variable schedule, I generally CANNOT accept long-term requests. I am always respectful of all my clients' properties, and will keep your place clean and tidy in your absence. I am careful to lock up every time I leave.
About: Hi, my name is Maddy! Ever since I was a little girl, animals have been such a influential part of my life. From rescuing and rehabilitating sick or injured kittens to starting my own dog boarding business, I have years of experience caring with all types of animals. My children share the same love for animals that I do and look forward to pampering your fur baby. If you have an athletic or active dog, we are the hosts for you!!! Trips to parks, hiking the trails, in-town walks, and play time with kids will happen daily. If your dog is less active, we can bring our activity level to where your dog is most happy and comfortable. We are experienced with all dog breeds and sizes! Any specific requests for them? Let me know! My minor is in nutrition and inspired my own line of grain-free doggie treats that I would love to share with your pup during their stay. I always keep the water bowl full and pets happy and healthy. I’ll even give them a bath if you want! Just bring their shampoo if they have sensitive skin. Quality time with your pup is a top priority in our home, and we want your pup to have a wonderful experience with us. Our number one goal is to make your pet feel comfortable and like part of the family. I am a homeschooling mom! My schedule allows me to be with your pup 100% of the time! Our flexibility allows for extended stays as well. We have a large fenced in yard and our own pup to keep your fur baby active and happy when the weather permits. Pups are supervised at all times and never allowed off-leash for walks. We take multiple walks daily!
“We have had Chelsea in our lives for over a year. She has been with us for our fostering and a recent adoption of another kitty. We have a total of 6 pets (1 dog and 5 kitties) she looks after when we are on vacation. During the week, she comes over 3 times a week to walk our lab. She is definitely an adopted member of our family. Our lab goes flying through the house when she hears the front door unlock and several of our cats will even come running. Everyone in our house loves Chelsea. I truly cannot say enough wonderful things about her not only as a sitter, but as a person. You will not be disappointed with the care and love she gives your furbabies.”

About: I have experience fostering dogs with the animal shelter APL and have a small toy poodle of my own. He is very friendly with other dogs and loves to play. I love dogs and would love to have the opportunity to watch dogs and take care of others! I am open to watching dogs for a couple hours, a day, or even a couple of days if that is what is needed. My house has a small backyard and I am also available to do drop ins at the dogs own home. The area is very quiet and would be comfortable for another dog to be in. If I am caring for someone else's dog I plan on being home for the time I'm watching the dog so that it will be well taken care of. I’m currently only working part time so I have plenty of time to spend with your animals. I am available early mornings or early afternoons to give your animal a break during the workday! I am also available any time on the weekends. I have a fenced in yard and 2 friendly dogs to keep your dog company. I have a toy poodle and a golden retriever. I can also do drops in to walk or play with your dog as well!
“It was comforting to know that Pepper was in a comfortable space, room to run outside, with plenty of people and pup friends to keep him occupied while we were on vacation! Kyle and Lyndzie sent lots of updates throughout the week too! Gave us peace of mind and we would definitely book with them again!”
About: I have at somepoint had 100+ pets with my ex that we took care of together. I have adopted "agressive" pets only for them just needing a loving home to feel comfortable. We also fostered a bunch of pets to help when APL was struggling for space. I do have a very busy schedule myself. However I make time to spend with our pets. We make homemade food for them and have a bunch of toys for them to play with. My partner is a stay at home spouse so no one gets into too much mischief. I view pets as family members and they have the comfort of laying on the couch and bed with us. We have a decently big yard with a fence for them to run about and have outside time.
“She was wonderful with Radar! Had no problems, walks went well, even got pictures of his stay. She kept us up to date on how he was doing on his stay. We did not have worry one bit. We are definitely using her again for future stays for Radar. Highly recommend her!”
