“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! 🐶✨”


“Very thankful to have found such an amazing dog sitter for our extremely energetic Australian Shepherd. We have used Deanne twice now and plan on her being our go to sitter! She updates with pictures and our Pup is always happy and smiling in the photos. Each time our dog has come home tired and happy. Would recommend her and her family to anyone.”

“This is the second time Wolfie stayed with Kim while we visited Great Wolf Lodge. Although he is nervous and doesn't like strangers, he had an easy time warming up to Kim. She sent us many updates of them going on walks, enjoying her outdoor area, and (his lap dog favorite) keeping close while she worked. When he wouldn't eat his usual dog food, she prepared him special food (with our blessing). We always knew he was in excellent hands and will be back for another visit if we head to Great Wolf Lodge or Great America!”


“Sammy and Rico had a great time and felt at home! Id highly recommend boarding your dog or dogs with Stella. She gave regular updates with pics. Of the boys. Greatly appreciated that! Thank you”

“June was absolutely wonderful with our shy dog! He was able to open up to her quickly, and she kept us updated with lots of photos, which made us feel at ease knowing that he was happy and well cared for. We’re so grateful for her and will definitely book her again.”


“Elaina and Joseph V. were absolutely amazing with my dog during his stay from July 1 through July 5. They kept me updated with photos and messages, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. It was clear they genuinely cared for him and treated him like part of their own family. When I picked him up, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I really appreciated their professionalism, kindness, and attention to detail throughout the entire boarding experience. I would absolutely trust them to watch my dog again and highly recommend Elaina and Joseph V. to anyone looking for reliable, caring, and attentive pet sitters.”


“Shalyn & Joseph really set my mind at ease when dropping off my pup. They kept me updated with pictures & detailed messages about how he was doing. Wally seemed like such a happy/ tired boy when he came home & I couldn’t have asked for better people to take care of him!”

“Byron and Martha were great with my dogs , they kept me updated and provided me with pictures throughout the day. I really appreciate the wonderful care that they give , I would recommend as many people to book asap !!!”

“Megan was very welcoming and accommodated some last-minute travel plans and made Copper feel right at home. He also got along well with her three pups. He enjoyed having a fenced in backyard where he could run around and play. Thank you!”

“Carolyn was great with Samson. She was able to accomodate a last min booking. The communication was great and appreciated all of the pictures on his stay. Highly recommended.”

“Rachel was very communicative while we were away on vacation. She sent us pictures of our furry friend and updates. She had the pool out for the dogs and I felt like she was being well taken care of and it eased my mind while away. My dog came home exhausted! Which tells me she had a lot of play time. Happy with our experience”

“We were very happy working with Jacob to board our pup Hudson! We received consistent updates and photos during his stay and Jacob was very quick to respond before/ during his stay. We love seeing the different parts of Hudson’s day indoors/ outdoors/ playing with new friends. We will work with Jacob again!”

“Carla provides the best care! Our dog loves staying with her. Lots of fun running around the fenced yard and playing with Carla & her dogs. Then comfy naps inside. Carla regularly sends videos & photos so we know how our dog is doing.”

“Debbie is amazing. She took very good care of Cooper and we would have him stay with her in a heartbeat again! She kept us updated each day on how he was doing and sent lots of cute pictures too. We appreciate all the care Debbie and her family showed Cooper.”


“Very happy with your service Jessica! Macie wears a special tracking collar so we don't ever lose her. But we can see she must have had good walks and play time with 30k steps the first day she 31k the 2nd day. The only other time we boarded her was at a professional kennel where she had a max of 800 steps for one day. So huge difference. Thank you! The pics were greatly appreciated as well! Would definitely recommend you.”


“Tyrone and Lexus seemed to enjoy their stay with Angela and Dave. They also have Honey and Bella to redirect the little furbabies. Thank you for accomodating aloof Tyrone and clingy LexusI The daily pictures and update, calmed the “hooman dogparents” as well? We will do it again with Angela.”

“We found Heather last minute when we were going to be out of town and did not have our usual in laws available to cat sit for us. Callie loved her! She was responsive, polite, on time, and clean. She followed Callie’s instructions perfectly since our old girl needs different medications morning and night. We are so grateful she took us on last minute. We will definitely reach out in the future when we need help again.”

“Kimberly was absolutely amazing to our babies- we booked drop-ins with our 2 kitties and they adore her! She even offered to go check on them outside of our scheduled visits during the icy weather. She’s kept in contact the whole time and send the best picture and updates. We highly recommend Kimberly and will definitely continue to her for our fur babies! THANK YOU Kimberly :)”


“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!”


“Kaitlyn is amazing. We were gone for two weeks and she took care of our little kitties like they were her own! We didn't worry at all! We will definitely request her in the future.”


“A first rate job taking care of my elderly cat. She was fed exactly on schedule and her dietary considerations were met as directed. My pet was played with, cuddled and visited by a conscientious and kind caretaker who I felt confident was respectful of my property. Chris is a treasure.”


“Karah was wonderful! I have 2 older cats and one needs insulin twice daily. My 2 old girls can make quite a mess of their (5!) litter boxes, but each one was clean with no sign odor. Karah sent pics daily and always texted before and after each visit. Cheerful and reliable, I hope to use her again”
“Haylea is amazing! She’s very professional and has great communication. She took great care of my cat while I was away and provided great pictures and updates. Highly recommend!”

“Bethnay did a wonderful job of tending to my two cats while I was away. She cleaned their litter, fed them and left them the treats that I asked her to give. While being gone during a heat wave and I had no AC I was able to let her know to leave my sliding glass door open via a text message. I defiantly would recommend using Bethany K. and will use her again if I happen to go on another vacation short or long.”

“Gretchen is the best! She helped us out on very short notice over a holiday week with no hassle. Our dogs were loved on and well taken care of while we were gone. Gretchen is very trustworthy and kind,”

“Danielle is AWESOME!! Roxy had a great time with her and her dogs and kids are amazing! She sent me photos during the day and let me know how Roxy was doing. She takes her for nice walks and gets plenty of exercise and fun. I'm super happy with the care Roxy gets at her house. Thanks!”

“This was our first visit with Deanne. Doggy Daycare was a hit! Cash was happy when I picked him up. He was sound asleep on the couch within a 1/2 of getting home. I think he had a busy day with his new lil buddy!”

About: Hello! My name is Dallas! I am a huge animal lover, and would love to care for your furry family member! I have always loved all animals and have been in this field for over 15 years. A little about me: I was a volunteer at the SPCA for a few years, back when I lived in Nevada when I was in high school. Then I worked for a 24/7 doggy day care facility for about two years in Lake Tahoe after I moved there with my husband Adam. I worked there until I started my own pet sitting/walking company. when My husband Adam owned a wooden surfboard shop there, while I started my own pet sitting/dog walking company. In 2016, we decided to travel around with our dog Myles for a bit, and converted a school bus into an RV! We both own our own companies so we’ve always been able to work remote and did the conversion on our own. Eventually we ended up in Nashville and did two house flips while still running our craft companies. In 2020 my husband and I moved back here to Illinois where Adam is from, to help his elderly parents, and the family property. We just finished converting the barn into a homestead while we are here, and just celebrated our wedding in the property in September. Sadly our dog Myles passed away peacefully last October at the age of almost 17. While my husband and I greatly miss having a dog or pet around, we’re just not quite ready to get another dog yet and we figured Rover would be perfect. I’ve had a long list of pets throughout my life, from small Pomeranians to a large PitBull lab mix and multiple cats, I haven’t met an animal I didn’t love yet haha. Adam and I live on 8 acres with plenty of room to run and play. Our home is very clean, and also very dog friendly aka we love couch snuggles! Because Adam and I both operate our own businesses, we both have separate shops built in the house so we have the luxury of getting to stay home while still working, making our schedules very open and flexible! My husband and I both own our own businesses and have our shops on our property, so we both work from home every day with a completely open and flexible schedule! I care for every pet as if they were my own, while following and respecting the owners directions and or specific requests! We have a large pet friendly house that is very empty after our lab mix passed away in fall, and for the first time we are completely pet-less. We live on 8 acres in the country with tons of space to run and play and poop and have tons of fun. We are fenced in property but because the property is so big we keep our visitors on leashes. Our home is very clean but also very dog friendly (aka we love couch snuggles and don’t mind sharing our bed haha)

About: I focus on building trust so pets feel safe and comfortable. I have experience with puppies (basic training and routines) and senior dogs (gentle care, patience, and medication support). Every pet is treated like family. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine since I work from home. I’m available throughout the day for walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship, so pets get consistent attention and care rather than being left alone. I create a safe, calm, and pet-friendly environment, whether in my home or the client’s. I supervise pets closely, follow their routines, and ensure they have fresh water, proper meals, and plenty of attention. I focus on building trust, reducing stress, and making sure every pet feels comfortable and secure.
“Can’t thank Christina enough for coming through on such short notice! Blair had the best time and was the happiest pup with her. So grateful to have someone I can trust with my baby, knowing she’s in great hands and having a fun day.”


“Lisa cared for my rambunctious pup, Fred, and I was very comfortable leaving him with her. She was flexible with my schedule and also patient with my crazy dog. I definitely would use her again for my doggy daycare needs!”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was a kid. I have also had a small private pet/house sitting business for the past 12 years. I have a lot of experience feeding pets with strict/special diets using oils, powders, crushed up supplements etc. and administering medicine including insulin injections. I’ve cared for dogs with disabilities and senior pets and puppies too. I love playing, walking, and just hanging out with them and giving lots of cuddles. I am a Nanny during the week, but have a somewhat flexible schedule. I generally can work the pet sitting routine into my work schedule so they are always well cared for and get plenty of attention. For boarding, my husband is home during the day and can take great care of your pets too. I am available to drop in or walk early mornings, evenings and Friday, Saturday, and Sunday’s. Pet sitting in your home - I basically “move in” for the time you are away. I follow your routine and house rules and spend most of my time in your home making sure your pets needs are met. This is especially good if there are separation anxiety issues. Boarding - I provide all loving care in my home making sure pets are comfortable, safe, and happy. Drop in- I will stop at your home and let dogs out, feed & water, play, etc. for no less than 20 minutes. I can also care for cats if you have them. Walks- I will come by, whether you are home or away, and take the dog(s) for a walk. I can feed and water too.

About: It’s been a while since I offered services, but I’m getting back into it and would love to care for your babies! I have always been a dog owner - if I could rescue every dog in the world I would! Instead, I'll gladly help take care of other peoples' angels and call it a day. My sweet 11 year old dog loves to play and gets along with most everyone. She would love to make new friends and play with your pooch while you're away! I work from home so will always be around. I work from home so am always around - your dog will not be left alone! I have one dog and she enjoys to play, too! I have a yard that is partially fenced, so I will take your pup on walks or only be outside with them leashed. I take safety seriously!

“Beth is so great and takes such good care of my pup. I was hesitant to use this app, but she put me at ease and goes above and beyond to give my pup the time, attention, and exercise he needs! Thanks Beth :)”


“Rachel was awesome and so sweet. My Roxy loved her from the start and didn't even bark at her (which Roxy normally does to any new person that comes to our house) but she was calm and just wanted to sniff her. Rachel was prompt and overall awesome. We will definitely be rebooking for our recurring needs! I also appreciated Rachels last minute availability :)”

About: Hi! I'm Karah, and I'm 25 years old. I've been caring for animals for over 10 years and have more than 6 years of professional experience working with dogs. Throughout my career, I've worked in boarding, daycare, grooming, and training environments, giving me experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. Most recently, I worked overnight at a professional dog training facility, where I was trusted to independently supervise and care for multiple dogs throughout the night. That experience taught me to recognize changes in behavior, respond calmly in unexpected situations, and ensure every dog remained safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners were away. I'm comfortable caring for puppies, seniors, giant breeds, and dogs with special needs, and I'm experienced administering both oral and injectable medications. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, enrichment activities, playtime, or simply relaxing with company, I'll make sure they receive the individual attention and care they deserve. I'm currently a full-time college student, and pet care allows me to continue doing work I'm passionate about while pursuing my degree. I understand that every pet has their own routine and personality, and my goal is always to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family! Pet care fits very naturally into my schedule. I'm reliable, punctual, and committed to providing dependable care for every booking. I do my best to accommodate last-minute requests whenever my schedule allows and will always communicate promptly if I'm unavailable. Your pet's safety and comfort are always my top priorities. Through my professional experience I've learned how to read canine body language, recognize signs of stress or illness, and adapt my care to each pet's individual needs. I closely follow your pet's normal routine, keep a clean and secure environment, and provide regular photo updates so you can feel confident they're receiving excellent care while you're away.

About: I've grown up around animals of all kinds and have also provided care for many of them along the way. I take pride in ensuring any animal in my care is safe, happy and healthy from the day they arrive to the day they leave! (We have a female dog who we'd love to let meet more friends, if possible!) Schedule open to discussion, dependent on the individual(s) wants and needs- I can provide care for cats/dogs as well as farm animals: chickes, pigs, goats/sheep, minis/horses, donkeys, turkeys, ducks, etc. I am happy to provide labor as well as feeding, mucking, turning out/exercising, moving hay/watering, egg collection, etc. Happy to learn what I do not know! 😊 I am happy to provide walks and playtime to those in my care, at your place of residence! (Or tailored care to the particular animal(s) at your home)- open to discussion based on the needs of the client requesting at the time.

“We starting using Lori about two weeks ago and she has been great. Chelsea, our dog, loves her. The weather had been rainy windy and cold lately but she is still taking great care of her and it truly puts my mind at ease while working knowing Chelsea is in good reliable hands. ”

About: I have had dogs since I was 10 , and I've always had a passion for them. When I was younger, I would read books about every type of dog I could get my hands on. I'll be good for your pets because I'm able to adjust to every individual need for your animals. I've watched dogs for friends and family for many years while they were on vacation. I have spent the last few years working in commercial pet care at various daycare and boarding facilities. This includes dogs, cats, birds and various small rodents. I'm willing to do whatever it takes to make your dogs, and yourself as comfortable as possible. I'm happy to go on frequent walks of any duration or difficulty. I used to take one of my own dogs hiking so I'm willing and able to do whatever they are used to. I'm also happy to be at your home as frequently as you'd prefer, and I'd love to maintain open communication with you while you are away. I have also recently acquired a PACCC certification. I’m freelancing at the moment so I have an open schedule at the moment. I am available Mondays, and Wednesday - Saturday. Sundays are also available upon request. I always prefer to meet with pet parents so I can be aware of any potential safety problems in the home and when walking dogs I like to bring a secondary slip leash to use so that in case anything happens to the first leash/collar, your pet is unable to slip away from me.

About: I have had animals of all walks of life since I was a child. Dogs, cats, horses, goats, chickens, ducks, fish, bunnies and even a donkey. Animals have naturally been drawn to me and I have often been the only one to help an animal. I show all animals unconditional love and care. I have nursed senior dogs until they need to cross the rainbow bridge. I am available for early morning, afternoon and evening help. I work from home and have the flexibility to meet the needs of a pet in my care. I am not able to care for animals in my apartment. All services will be on site for the client and their pet. I will adhere to the clients wishes for their pet once we establish a relationship.

“Carolyn was great with Samson. She was able to accomodate a last min booking. The communication was great and appreciated all of the pictures on his stay. Highly recommended.”

“Rachel was very communicative while we were away on vacation. She sent us pictures of our furry friend and updates. She had the pool out for the dogs and I felt like she was being well taken care of and it eased my mind while away. My dog came home exhausted! Which tells me she had a lot of play time. Happy with our experience”

“Carla provides the best care! Our dog loves staying with her. Lots of fun running around the fenced yard and playing with Carla & her dogs. Then comfy naps inside. Carla regularly sends videos & photos so we know how our dog is doing.”

“Debbie is amazing. She took very good care of Cooper and we would have him stay with her in a heartbeat again! She kept us updated each day on how he was doing and sent lots of cute pictures too. We appreciate all the care Debbie and her family showed Cooper.”


“Tyrone and Lexus seemed to enjoy their stay with Angela and Dave. They also have Honey and Bella to redirect the little furbabies. Thank you for accomodating aloof Tyrone and clingy LexusI The daily pictures and update, calmed the “hooman dogparents” as well? We will do it again with Angela.”

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.
“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!”

“We had a two and a half week vacation planned to Japan and boarded Mochi with Dickson. I'm always quite nervous and anxious whenever I have to leave Mochi anywhere, let alone somewhere for over two weeks, but Dickson was very friendly and made it so I had nothing to worry about! He took care of Mochi really well and sent regular updates. When we picked her up, she came back happy and tired and loved. Thank you for taking such great care of her!”

“Open & easy communication. My dog that is very hesitant of new people went up to Norma automatically and on her own. Norma followed my instructions for medication & being leashed. She eased my anxiety greatly for what I’d consider a worrisome dog (she is a runner) will be using again for our next trip. Thank you Norma!”

“Melody was fabulous. Can’t say enough great things about her. She sent multiple pics and kept us updated. Our pup was very happy and quite thrilled to stay with her! Would recommend to anyone:)”
“Thanks to Rusty, I was at ease traveling for a few days with the dogs in his care. Rusty has a dog-friendly space indoors and out and was attentive to the dogs’ individual personality traits and needs. This was the first time I’ve left them with a sitter and both dogs responded well and appeared comfortable. It’s a huge relief to know that Rusty is available to care for my dogs if I need to be away.”

“JoAnne is amazing! She is so good with our dogs and they clearly have a great time there. She sent pictures every day and it really helped seeing how happy our dogs were. She was completely understanding when our flight got cancelled which made the whole ordeal a little better knowing our fur babies were in great hands. We will absolutely use JoAnne again.”
