“My dog Oban came home after 7 days and was calm and happy, not clingy! He was treated as a member of Elizabeth and Philip’s family. I feel so fortunate to have found Elizabeth and Philip! Thank you both!”
“I can't thank Missy enough for her help with the pups! They adore her and I'll be using her for the rest of my time here in Indiana. I've booked with her several times and highly recommend her. She was flexible with the drop off/pick up times, great with communication, and I can tell my pups love her and Willie <3”
“We were first time Rover users and Beth was super accommodating and patient with our many questions. Her little dog Tupac got along well with our dog, helping with the transition. Beth does a great job of communicating. She sent daily updates and photos so that we could see how Josie was doing. Beth is very good. Highly recommend.”
About: I’ve been a dog owner most of my life and truly understand how much pets are part of the family. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities—both my own and those of friends and family. I’ve provided overnight care as well as extended daytime stays, and I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, and giving pets the attention they need to feel safe and happy. I know how important it is to have someone you trust watching your pet, so I treat every dog like my own—with patience, consistency, and lots of love. I’m reliable, communicative, and happy to follow any specific instructions to keep your dog comfortable and on their normal routine. When caring for dogs, I focus on consistency and comfort. Before the stay, I like to learn your dog’s daily schedule—feeding times, walk routines, favorite activities, and any special needs. During their stay, I stick as closely as possible to that routine so they feel secure and less stressed. I also take time to get to know each dog’s personality and energy level, whether they love to play or prefer a quieter environment. You can expect regular communication and updates so you feel confident your dog is in good hands. Safety and trust are extremely important to me when caring for your pet. My home provides a clean, calm, and pet-friendly environment where dogs can feel comfortable and secure. I have a fully fenced-in yard for safe outdoor play and potty breaks, and I always supervise dogs while they’re outside. I’m careful about doors, gates, and interactions to ensure your pet stays safe at all times. I’m also happy to follow any specific instructions you have to maintain your dog’s routine and comfort. You can count on updates so you feel confident while you’re away.
“Ebony and her family are amazing care givers! Not only is she responsive and communicates throughout the trip, but she also followed special feeding instructions for our pup. He had so much fun at Ebony’s house, I was worried he wouldn’t want to come home!! We’ve already rebooked her for the future because we know that our Toby is well taken care of and loved while we are gone. We can’t recommend Ebony enough- she’s amazing!”
“They were absolutely amazing with my dog, Charlie. From the moment we dropped him off, they were kind, patient, and super understanding. You can tell they genuinely care about the dogs they watch. Charlie was comfortable with them and that gave me a lot of peace of mind. They kept me updated and were very attentive to his needs. I’m really grateful for how well they treated him and I would 100% trust them again. Highly recommend!”
“Heather was amazing and I will definitely use her again. She was accommodating to my last minute request for boarding. She was also responsive when I reached out and had a very caring spirit.”
“Ryo was great with Piper. They provided updates and pictures throughout our trip. I could tell that Piper enjoyed himself as well, upon his return home. I will definitely refer Ryo to other friends and family looking for a sitter.”
“Miller had the best time! Highly recommend Sean and his services. He gives updates and a peace of mind while you’re away! He truly enjoys spending time with your furry friends!”
“Stephen and Angela were great! They were great with communication and setting up our dog's stay. We have an older dog who gets anxious at typical boarding facilities but she came home happy, tired, and well cared for. We will definitely use them again next time she needs to stay somewhere!”
“I appreciate Abigail accepting my booking and consistently communicating with me regarding my boy Archie. She sent me updates and pictures and actually spending time with him. She accommodated a last minute schedule change and was very kind in that exchange as well. I already expressed that I would love to use her again whenever we need another sitter.”
“Cody took excellent care of our dog Finn. He agreed to meet us beforehand so Finn could be introduced to him and his space before we totally dropped him off. Cody took daily pics and updates on how he was doing and made Finn feel right at home. Will definitely book with Cody again!”
“Our pups always have a great time with Allison and Kenneth! They are so flexible and easy to work with and send the best picture updated so we know our babies are happy!”
“We’ve used Julie twice now and she is nothing short of amazing. Our little girl loves it there and I know she is well taken care of. Julie is super easy to communicate with and very responsive! If you are looking for a reliable and trustworthy sitter, book her now!”
About: I am a dog owner available to watch dogs of any size. My home is cozy and comfortable. They can relax and play with the many toys I have here. I give every dog plenty of attention, affection and playtime so dogs feel comfortable while there owners are away! I’m the dog dad of the cutest French Bulldog who is super friendly! I’m able to short or long dog walks in the afternoon or evening. Let me know your dogs specific needs so I can accommodate! I have owned dogs my whole life and am a responsible pet owner. I’m happy to follow any rules you may need to keep your dogs routine as consistent as possible! I work full-time and am home by 2:30 on days I’m not off. Once I’m home boarding is my focus, I always look forward to playing and giving dogs I’m boarding plenty of attention. I’m able to be with your dog while using the bathroom, I have a yard but it’s not fenced so I walk them around the yard on the leash while going potty. My dog loves having friends around so your dog will feel comfortable during their stay!
“Aspen was a great dog mom for my pups while I was out of town. She communicated clearly about the arrangements and expectations. She made sure the pups were taken care of and they had a blast. Came home worn out from playing. She also provided updates and pics while she was watching them. I would gladly use her again!”
“I think the best review comes from our dog, Sirius. When we get to their house he runs to the front door, dragging us behind. Alexis and Daniel have the Sirius seal of approval! We're also happy because we know he's being well taken care of while we're away.”

About: I have had cats all my life and have taken care of kittens all the way to seniors and end of life. I will adapt your pet's routine, not the other way around. Whether that is high-anxiety care or medical needs. I will also provide frequent pictures of your fur babies and any other requests you need while they are in my care.
“Penny did an exceptional job caring for our two cats during our 2.5‑week international trip. She was reliable, easy to reach, and provided daily messages with photos, which gave us great peace of mind. We had a minor hiccup with our automated litter box being unplugged before we left (100% our fault), and Penny helped us resolve it quickly and smoothly. Our cats were relaxed and happy when we returned, which speaks to the attentive care she provided. Thank you so much, Penny!”
“Jen took great care of my cat, Callie, while I was away. The regular updates and pictures she sent me made it much easier for me to enjoy my trip without worrying about Callie’s wellbeing. Would definitely recommend booking Jen!”

“Debbie did a wonderful job caring for our Sadie while we were out of town. Sadie’s typically skeptical of new people but went right to Debbie during their meet and greet and was even rolling around showing her tummy as a sign of immediate trust. It’s clear Debbie loves cats and they love her too! She checked in with us every day after her daily visit and we loved all of the pictures she sent to give us peace of mind! We will definitely contact her again the next time we need a pet sitter.”
“Mary went above and beyond to care for our cat. Our cat is very skiddish around new people, but Mary took her time to be patient and let Callie warm up to her. We really appreciated her thoroughness and reliability. Followed all instructions to a tee and provided great daily updates. Highly recommend booking Mary!”
“Jessica was awesome! She helped us out at the last minute. She sent us lots of photos of our cat each day. I really appreciated her help and would definitely use her services again.”
“Bayley did a great job taking care of our cats while we were out of town! She followed all the instructions on our guide, sent proof-of-life pictures on every drop-in, and consistently communicated about the timing of her visits. It was such a relief to know our fur babies were in good hands so we could enjoy our trip :)”
About: My passion for caring for animals started at a young age. I spent many hours volunteering at my local animal shelter as well as having the privilege of caring for my own pets at home. Growing up, I raised reptiles, fish, dogs, cats and hamsters….to name a few! In addition to being a down-to-earth, compassionate human, my friends would say I am trustworthy, responsible and reliable. I would love the opportunity to get to know you and your furbabies (we can probably just call them children at this point, right) :) I am a very active person and enjoy walking, hiking and spending as much time outdoors as possible. My schedule is very flexible which would allow me work around yours! I can’t wait to get to know your furry friend!
“Missy was super amazing and took amazing care of our 2 cats! I could really tell that she cared about them. Updated with pictures and an update everyday. Would totally book again!”
“Great job, won cats over quickly, even our scaredy cat. Stuck to the schedule given. Did overnights for us, I never doubted his integrity with our house or personal items, very trustworthy.”
“Tanda was very attentive to our 2 dogs! She even took them on a walk which wasn’t a requirement. She was very easy to work with. We needed a pet sitter at the last minute. She arrived the night before for a meet and greet. Will definitely use again and highly recommend!”
“Sofia took such great care of our animals while we were gone! We got daily pictures which helped us know they were fine. I highly recommend Sofia and hope she will watch our animals the next time we go out of town.”
About: I’ve been passionate about animals for as long as I can remember, having owned and cared for several animals (mostly dogs and cats) throughout the years. I understand that pets are family, and I'm committed to giving them the love, attention, and care they deserve. With hands-on experience in administering medications whether orally, topically, or even intravenously I'm confident in handling pets with special medical needs. Whether your pet requires daily meds, a little extra TLC, or just a fun and safe companion while you're away, I'm here to provide top-notch care. I take pride in making sure every pet in my care feels safe, comfortable, and happy. Whether it's a playful walk, a cozy cuddle, or simply ensuring their routine stays consistent, I treat every pet like my own. I work full time M-F but I am available on evening and weekends to take care of your fur babies! For house sitting I am available from the time I get to your home from work until the time I go back to work the next day and then any time I'm not working you can expect me to be at your home. I am a very trustworthy person especially when it comes to others and there pets. My animals are my children so I only give them the upmost care they deserve and even though some would disagree I totally spoil them too. Animals have always had such a special place in my heart and I feel like I was born to care for them.
About: I have had pets since I was a child. I started pet sitting 13 years ago. I love all the fur babies I get to meet and their different personalities. I mostly sit for dogs and cats but now I even sit for chickens! I have 1 fur baby of my own - Catalina, my cat. I currently work from home. My job allows me the flexibility to work wherever I have an internet connection. I would love the opportunity to sit for your fur babies. I love to care for pets in their own home. I work remote and will be with your fur babies 24/7 unless I need to run an errand or just pop out for a bit. My number 1 priority is your fur babies. I apologize, but due to health reasons I will not be able to sit for anyone that has a smoker in their home.

Volunteer experience has been with our local animal shelter/rescue. I have participated in training classes with puppies and adults.

About: I have been caring for dogs, of all sizes, for well over a decade. I specialize in canine obedience and believe creating a cohesive family unit brings peace to the home. “Teach the human to lead and the dog will follow.” I dedicate myself 100% to each client and understand the importance of having an obedient dog with well-developed in-home manners. Most importantly, I believe it's important for your dog to HAVE FUN! I understand how dogs think, and seeing your dog happy brings me so much joy. Whether it is a drop-in visit, house-sitting, or just a walk around the park, I would love the opportunity to make you and your dog smile. I have three personal dogs and three cats...it's a zoo!

“We are from out of town, in Indiana for a short time. We received a last minute invite to go to Churchill downs - Elizabeth accepted our request to puppy sit... and our pupp had the best day! We received pictures and videos of her playing and living her best life. We felt totally at ease and relaxed knowing our little Willi was in great hands.”
“Absolutely some of the best caretaking Charlie has had! Lori was great with Charlie. We met beforehand with her sweet pup to make sure the dogs would get along, and I really appreciated her thoroughness and quick communication. During his stay, Charlie got to run around and play with other dogs at her home and her family’s farm, but also had time to rest and relax. He was such a happy boy when we picked him up and slept the whole way home! 10/10 would recommend Lori!!”
“Eliane was so great! Bumi seemed like he had lots of fun and was well cared for. She was great at communicating and letting me know details of Bumi's stay when I picked him up. Would definitely have her watch him again!”

I'm happy to help figure out which service is best for you and your pet. Please reach out with any questions. And I'm happy to set up a meet and greet so that I'm available to help out at a moments notice. I make my living providing pet care and housekeeping. Remember sleep away camp when you were a kid? Or that one really cool babysitter? That's what your pet's time with me will be like. Your vacation is also their vacation. Whether at your home or my own, walks, or drop-in visits, I provide regular updates and so many cute photos to help assure that they're in good hands. My home has a large, fenced in backyard for all the desired romps and squirrel chasing. I live in a beautiful, easily walkable neighborhood; which is great for multiple daily adventures, stopping to smell all the smells and learn safe social skills. Whether at my home or your own, I'd like to know what your pet's current routines are, and any anxieties you or they might have. I appreciate the trust and responsibility I've been given while taking care of your loved ones and home.

About: I am a dog trainer at Feeders Supply Jeffersonville location. Everything I make from this site will go towards my career. I taught my own personal dog how to walk properly, sit, lay, stay, spin, to say his prayers, as well as many more when I had him! I enjoy any and every animal and breed I also have a few snakes. I request to meet the dog with the owner prior to any commitment to ensure they are comfortable with me. I took off house sitting temporarily due to past houses being unlivable. Anything else you would like to know, I am an open book, please feel free to ask! I currently work full time from home as well as dog training once a week as of now. My husband also works from home so someone is available to monitor at all times! My work schedule will be changing soon, however should have the time to do drop by visits if near by. I have two friendly and playful dogs that could be entertaining, but also know how to be patient when necessary. I also have a baby gate to separate pups, if need be. I also have two cats that joined our family that see dogs as other cats. They will end up playing with your dog by the end of their stay, guaranteed!
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Macy was absolutely amazing with Bruno! She cared for him for an entire week with so much love, patience, and confidence. Every morning he was genuinely excited to see her, and that gave me so much peace of mind. As the owner of a 120-pound dog, it isn’t easy to trust someone else with him, but I felt completely comfortable leaving my big baby in Macy’s capable hands. She handled him with confidence and kindness, and it was clear she truly cared about him. She was also incredibly flexible and gracious as my schedule kept changing, pivoting without hesitation and making the whole experience stress-free. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. I highly recommend Macy and will absolutely book with her again!”
About: I have been working with animals since I was 10 years old. I work at an animal hospital and foster kittens frequently. I do a lot of kennel work and grooming so I have a lot of experience. I am the go to person that everyone calls for their pet needs in my family I make sure the pets have priority over my daily routine. I have pretty much open availability and am willing to work with whatever schedule makes you and your baby the most comfortable. I do work a 9-5 job so between those hours I will be unavailable but can accommodate anything in between I practice fear free animal visits so make sure the dog is completely comfortable and love to keep them in their routine so that the experience goes as smooth as possible for the pet. I have found the positive reinforcement and fear free practices are the best method especially for our nervous nellies who have a bit more trouble adjusting to new people around, I always stay stocked with high quality rewards and tons of fun.

About: I've been surrounded by dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, turtles, frogs and fish for 35+ years. I've raised, house-trained, walked, entertained and loved a variety of dogs and cats my entire life. I never get tired of these sweet creatures! I have experience with all dogs and cats, regardless of age, breed or temperament. As I'm now only working part-time providing early intervention services for children, and am self-employed, I have a great deal of flexibility to care for your dogs and cats. I'm available for drop-ins to feed, play with and care for your sweet pets as needed - throughout the day and night - as well as dog-walking, as it fits into your schedule. I've spent the last 20+ years working as a teacher and developmental therapist, educating children who have developmental delays and disabilities. Now, I've decided to focus additionally on my love of animals. Since I was a small child, I've adored pets, and have many years of experience caring for a variety of them. I'm very patient and appreciative of each animal's personality. I currently have 3 dogs and 3 cats of my own, and have used this service as a customer as well, so I can understand your point of view as "parents".
“We have previously used Penny for our dogs, one is our old guy, blind and needs special assistance. She is so kind and caring with him, sends pics as well. She goes above and beyond! Will for sure be using her again.”
About: Taking care of dogs is my passion in life. I currently own 2 dogs, an elderly hound and a young shepherd. My love for these two made me decide to have a career in working with and training working line dogs. This career path has given me a lot of experience with dogs of all types. Whether you dog is "hard to handle" or "easy going", I will be the perfect sitter for you. My entire world revolves around dogs. On days that I'm not working with my work dog or caring for someone else's pet, I am out training my own dogs. This is my passion and dream career, and nothing makes me happier. I like to care for pets at their own home. Being in their own home and following the same routines will make them feel safe while you are gone and will build a sense of trust with me. Your pet's safety and happiness is my number one priority.
About: I have had cats and dogs all my life. Currently I have thirteen fur/feather babies. Two cats, one Australian shepherd and ten chickens.

I can be there for your fur babies practically whenever you need me! I have better weekday availability, while weekends require planning ahead. Whether you need me to walk your dog, come over to ease their anxiety or simply let them out to potty, I can meet all their needs. Or if you have a high energy dog like my Aussie, I can get some of that energy out by playing with them while you are at work.
“Reanna has been walking my dog twice a week for several months now and she is absolutely fantastic! She is extremely responsive to booking requests and very communicative when I need to move things around or she needs to adjust the schedule. Louie loves her and it's clear she loves him, too. It's great to have someone I can trust help my dog get some energy out while I'm at work. I highly recommend Reanna for dog walking and any other pet care needs!”
About: Experience with dogs of all ages, sizes and temperaments. Have owned as many as 5 at one time, as well as fostering dogs, cats and kittens, including a special needs beagle with degenerative myelopathy (he had a cool wheelchair :) . I love them all and will care for them like they are my own. I will scratch and play and provide belly rubs on command. If I sit for your dog in my home, my cat, Frankie, will just roll her eyes and move on :) I am happy to work with the schedule you prefer for your furry kids, even if it's not the same as mine. Please contact me with questions, I am happy to chat first so we are both comfortable. While I no longer work from home, I still have plenty of time to care for dogs in my home, as I have done for my own dogs 😊 I have a fenced yard and a special “dog room” with toys a few different sized crates for when they need some space from my cat 😊.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, usually multiple at a time, all shapes and sizes. Your pup will receive top-tier, attentive care with your instructions followed to the letter. Beyond that, expect plenty of walks, play sessions, cuddles, and adventures. I genuinely love dogs and treat every pet like my own. As a student, I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate almost any timing mornings, evenings, weekends, you name it. I work around your needs and will always make your pet my top priority. I have a friendly dog at home who loves meeting new friends! When watching pets in your home, you can expect to come back to everything exactly as you left it, if not a little cleaner. I treat every home and pet with the utmost respect and care.

About: I’ve been caring for animals for years—both my own and those of friends and family—and it’s something I truly love. I have hands-on experience with dogs and cats of all ages, including high-energy puppies and senior pets who need a little extra TLC. What sets me apart is the level of care, patience, and attention I bring to every animal I meet. I’m reliable, responsive, and always go the extra mile to make sure pets feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. Whether it’s administering medication, keeping up with a puppy’s training routine, or giving senior pets the comfort they need, I treat every pet like they’re my own. Your pet’s well-being is always my top priority! I’m currently a full time online student making it effortless to book with me. I am always open to last minute bookings! Booking with me will provide you that peace of mind you are looking for so you can enjoy your time away without worrying about your fur babies. I guarantee daily photos of your fur babies with no extra charge. I like to send photos to show you proof that they are being well taken care of as I know how hard it can be to trust someone with your fur children! I make sure to give them plenty of outside time and lots of attention! I usually try to fit a walk in as well and play time so they can enjoy their time just as they would if you were home with them. I like to keep them on their routine to help them with the stress of being away from their owners. Rest assured I got your fur babies covered!
About: I've lived with and taken care of dogs my entire life. Trained my current dog Frodo since he was puppy. Got him to get along with cat siblings too! I'm currently working part time, so I will have plenty of time to care for your pets needs. I'm willing to spare as much time as I can for the pets. While I cant house any pets at my own house due to hyper (but friendly!) pets, but I intend to treat every pet and house as my own.

About: I have had pets of my own all my life. I volunteered for an animal shelter in my hometown for years and got both of my cats there. I love animals more than anything in the world. I’d love to play with your pets and provide them with the best care. I have many references available if you want to know just how amazing my animal sitting has been in the past. I grew up with Shih Tzus and a Pitbull, so I’m comfortable with small and big dogs! I am very responsible and hold my work to the highest standards. I am new to this area and looking for ways to fill my time. I am also a registered nurse and work in the pediatric ICU. I’m looking forward to meeting you and your fur babies. Thanks so much! I’m visiting home between work contracts, so I have a lot of time on my hands with no current job! I would love to fill my time with some cute animals. My cats rule my house and are allowed on all furniture. I will abide by all rules of owners though and carry on your guidelines. I can crate dogs if needed or correct for bad behavior.
About: I have been caring for dogs, of all sizes, for well over a decade. I specialize in canine obedience and believe creating a cohesive family unit brings peace to the home. “Teach the human to lead and the dog will follow.” I dedicate myself 100% to each client and understand the importance of having an obedient dog with well-developed in-home manners. Most importantly, I believe it's important for your dog to HAVE FUN! I understand how dogs think, and seeing your dog happy brings me so much joy. Whether it is a drop-in visit, house-sitting, or just a walk around the park, I would love the opportunity to make you and your dog smile. I have three personal dogs and three cats...it's a zoo! Most importantly, I love dogs! I can't wait to meet you and your pup(s)! -Jessica I work remotely and I create my own schedule, so my time is highly flexible! I'm happy to accommodate your needs and schedule. Just let me know, and I'll be there! I'm not currently accepting boarding clients. We have three dogs and three cats, so it is a full house right now! Obviously, safety always comes first, second to having fun with your pup!
About: Animals are my life, love and passion! I am a full-time, work-from-home professional pet sitter and dog walker and have owned Meows & Growls Pet Sitting Service since July 2014. I enjoy visiting customers homes to provide daily care as well as vacation care. I have had the pleasure of taking care of basic needs (food, water, potty breaks, exercise) for Dachshunds, Pugs, Poodles, Malteses, Norwegian Elkhounds, Newfoundlands, Labs and Goldens I am certified CPR/First Aid, bonded and insured. Volunteer experience has been with our local animal shelter/rescue. I have participated in training classes with puppies and adults. What sets me apart from other sitters is I am a professional not a hobby sitter as my credentials illustrate. My 25 years had been both personally and professionally since 2014.

“My dog Oban came home after 7 days and was calm and happy, not clingy! He was treated as a member of Elizabeth and Philip’s family. I feel so fortunate to have found Elizabeth and Philip! Thank you both!”
“I can't thank Missy enough for her help with the pups! They adore her and I'll be using her for the rest of my time here in Indiana. I've booked with her several times and highly recommend her. She was flexible with the drop off/pick up times, great with communication, and I can tell my pups love her and Willie <3”
“We were first time Rover users and Beth was super accommodating and patient with our many questions. Her little dog Tupac got along well with our dog, helping with the transition. Beth does a great job of communicating. She sent daily updates and photos so that we could see how Josie was doing. Beth is very good. Highly recommend.”
“Ebony and her family are amazing care givers! Not only is she responsive and communicates throughout the trip, but she also followed special feeding instructions for our pup. He had so much fun at Ebony’s house, I was worried he wouldn’t want to come home!! We’ve already rebooked her for the future because we know that our Toby is well taken care of and loved while we are gone. We can’t recommend Ebony enough- she’s amazing!”
“They were absolutely amazing with my dog, Charlie. From the moment we dropped him off, they were kind, patient, and super understanding. You can tell they genuinely care about the dogs they watch. Charlie was comfortable with them and that gave me a lot of peace of mind. They kept me updated and were very attentive to his needs. I’m really grateful for how well they treated him and I would 100% trust them again. Highly recommend!”
“Ryo was great with Piper. They provided updates and pictures throughout our trip. I could tell that Piper enjoyed himself as well, upon his return home. I will definitely refer Ryo to other friends and family looking for a sitter.”
“Miller had the best time! Highly recommend Sean and his services. He gives updates and a peace of mind while you’re away! He truly enjoys spending time with your furry friends!”
“Stephen and Angela were great! They were great with communication and setting up our dog's stay. We have an older dog who gets anxious at typical boarding facilities but she came home happy, tired, and well cared for. We will definitely use them again next time she needs to stay somewhere!”
“I appreciate Abigail accepting my booking and consistently communicating with me regarding my boy Archie. She sent me updates and pictures and actually spending time with him. She accommodated a last minute schedule change and was very kind in that exchange as well. I already expressed that I would love to use her again whenever we need another sitter.”
“Cody took excellent care of our dog Finn. He agreed to meet us beforehand so Finn could be introduced to him and his space before we totally dropped him off. Cody took daily pics and updates on how he was doing and made Finn feel right at home. Will definitely book with Cody again!”
“Our pups always have a great time with Allison and Kenneth! They are so flexible and easy to work with and send the best picture updated so we know our babies are happy!”
About: I am a dog owner available to watch dogs of any size. My home is cozy and comfortable. They can relax and play with the many toys I have here. I give every dog plenty of attention, affection and playtime so dogs feel comfortable while there owners are away! I’m the dog dad of the cutest French Bulldog who is super friendly! I’m able to short or long dog walks in the afternoon or evening. Let me know your dogs specific needs so I can accommodate! I have owned dogs my whole life and am a responsible pet owner. I’m happy to follow any rules you may need to keep your dogs routine as consistent as possible! I work full-time and am home by 2:30 on days I’m not off. Once I’m home boarding is my focus, I always look forward to playing and giving dogs I’m boarding plenty of attention. I’m able to be with your dog while using the bathroom, I have a yard but it’s not fenced so I walk them around the yard on the leash while going potty. My dog loves having friends around so your dog will feel comfortable during their stay!
“Aspen was a great dog mom for my pups while I was out of town. She communicated clearly about the arrangements and expectations. She made sure the pups were taken care of and they had a blast. Came home worn out from playing. She also provided updates and pics while she was watching them. I would gladly use her again!”
“I think the best review comes from our dog, Sirius. When we get to their house he runs to the front door, dragging us behind. Alexis and Daniel have the Sirius seal of approval! We're also happy because we know he's being well taken care of while we're away.”
“Ziggy seemed to have a great time with Jeremy & Laura! It was only a short stay, but Ziggy seemed happy in the pictures I received from them. I’ll look to use them again in the future to dogsit!”
“George and Erin took great care of my dog. They have an INCREDIBLE space for dogs to run and be free. I got regular updates, and their communication was always prompt. Thank you both!”
“Lola had an amazing time with Melissa and her family! They sent lots of pictures and updates throughout her stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear Lola was treated like part of the family and received lots of love and attention. I would absolutely recommend Melissa to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter, and we would definitely book with them again!”
“Lori was great! She took very good care of our sweet boy Milo while we on vacation, as well as kept us updated with daily adventures and photos to show us that he was doing well in her care! We were a bit nervous as first being our first time leaving him with a dog sitter, but there is no doubt in our minds that when we need to go out of town again we can have Lori watch him and know he will be in the best hands! Would highly recommend anyone to use her for any dog sitting needs!”
