“Lisa is now my go-to for quick work trips. My little girl seems very content and happy to be there. My girl also gets along with her Bentley really well and they like to nap together.”
“Odette took wonderful care of my Frenchie. Her communication was great, she kept me updated me multiple times throughout the day with pictures and took care of my dog like her own. Thank you, Odette!”
“I was so happy that Skilar sent me pictures and updates during my pups stay with her! I had cold feet at first because this was Merediths (my pup) first stay with someone at their home. I highly recommend Skilar, as she made my doggy as at home as she made me feel confident leaving her!”
“Jennifer & her husband have become like family to us & our 2 pups. When we dropped them off for a week stay, they were excited to see Jennifer & didn’t look back at us! That’s when you know you’ve found someone who actually cares about our pups!! ❤️”
“I don't use Rover very often, and am quite hesitant about leaving our pup with new people. However, Kandace made me feel at ease from her friendly demeanor and questions to ensure Ginger's comfort in her stay. I received photos throughout her stay, and her happiness is clear in the photos. We have found our go-to Rover sitter!”
“I left my 2 German Shepherds with Marquia for 7 days and they came back extremely happy. She sent me pictures throughout their stay and always kept me updated. I will be using her for all my dog sitting needs from now on!”
“Mo was absolutely amazing. Kept me informed with videos and pictures once a day. She kept me updated about how he was doing as well. She had a very nice big fenced yard for him. Would definitely recommend!”
“Hope was phenomenal and we will absolutely use her again! Any concern of mine was addressed promptly, concerns of hers were brought to my attention right away, and she sent plenty of updates and pictures. Thabk you!”
“Daphne watched our baby for us to go on a weekend trip to nashville. When we got back my baby didnt want to leave her lol I had to pull him. She's great. A real animal person and animal lover.”
“We rest easy every night of our vacation away because we know our purebred golden lovebug Copper [12 years young] is safe and well cared for at Miss Heather's. She provides photos every morning, ongoing open transparent communication, Heather clearly cares for everyone equally. Whether over weeks including dropoff on Xmas 2025 through New Years 2026 and days before Memorial Day 2026, we also know Heather understands how Copper does not do well with either thunder or fireworks. We knew after a single night tryout, that all future stays (so far averaged 11 nights/12 days total) Copper is staying as closest to being at home with us.”
“Lydia was great with Bogie. Although he was anxious of being away from home she was patient with him and kept me updated on his stay. Would recommend her and Bogie will be going back next month for another stay.”
“Morgan and her family were amazing! They honestly went above and beyond with caring for Blue. She sent so much lovely photos and a couple of videos showing that he was having a really good time in their home with their dogs and kiddos. She even pointed out a few things that he can use some help on when we asked. If we ever needed to go out of town again Morgan would absolutely be the first person we asked. She clearly cares deeply for her dogs and her family and it translated really incredibly to how she cared for our boy.”
“Eric and June were great with Bandit. June sent frequent updates, with pictures of Bandit being a snuggle bug. Seems like Bandit was very happy with his stay.”
“If I could recommend one person to watch after my Rookie, it would have to be Jessica!! She is an excellent communicator, and sent several pictures throughout Rookies stay. I highly recommend Jessica and I know Rookie is looking forward to his next stay with them!!”
“Christin was absolutely fantastic with my dog, Lucy. She was incredibly flexible with both drop-off and pick-up times, which made my trip much less stressful. Communication was outstanding throughout the stay, and she sent plenty of photos and updates that gave me complete peace of mind. Lucy had recently undergone surgery, so she required extra attention while wearing a cone and taking medication. Christin handled everything with great care and compassion, and I could tell Lucy was in excellent hands. Her home was clean and welcoming, and the large, fenced backyard gave Lucy plenty of safe space to explore and play. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Christin again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and attentive dog sitter!”
“Leah provided so many updates and details that it was as if I hadn’t even left my sweet Daisy behind. Leah & Wes and “the girls” welcomed Daisy with open arms and paws! I’m so glad we found this wonderful family to look after Daisy when we are away. Daisy came home happy and I know when we use Leah & Wes again she will be well taken care of!!”
“Jessica communicated so well all week while watching our baby! I was nervous to leave him for so long but she sent updates and pictures and answered so fast!! Would recommend her for the anxious doggy parents and will book again!!!”

“Jennifer was fantastic. She saved me from a last minute work trip and was able to help me out without any issues at all. Her communication is fabulous and I would definitely recommend her to everyone!!!”
About: I’ve taken care of cats of every kind since I was 10 years old. I have 3 cats of my own currently living with me who are all in perfect health, and my senior cat (from my college years) is living the retired life at my parent’s lake house, so he’s still doing great too! I also had a cat when I was younger who was diagnosed with diabetes toward the end of her life, so I learned how to administer insulin shots on cats. I am comfortable giving my cats any type of medicine, even the one that fights me the most on any kind of medicine, haha!
“Katherine has been doing awesome with Ranger! Shows up on time and makes sure that he has food and water and plays with him during visits to keep his mind entertained while I am at work!”
“Carly is the best!! She was very responsive and accommodating in the booking process, and during her visits she was so loving to my cat Dill - including lots of snuggles and play time!”
“Ariana was excellent! She was very knowledgeable, professional, and clearly experienced. Communication was great throughout the entire booking, which gave me a lot of confidence and peace of mind. She also provided helpful updates and pictures, which I really appreciated. It was clear my pet was in good hands. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
“Rhonda was excellent!! I was so nervous leaving my cats but I was able to relax knowing everything was taken care of. She did everything I asked her to do and even got my mail! She sent daily updates and pictures! I will definitely use her again!!!!”
About: I’ve taken care of animals ever since the age of 13. My aunt had 3 dogs so whenever I could I would watch them and stay there for a week at a time when she was out of town I fed them walked them even had to bathe them when they got into dirt. From then on my aunt gave other people my number and information and I started animal sitting all kinds of creatures ! It’s my favorite thing to do ! I’m currently working full time and I have a 2 year old little boy. I am extremely flexible and able to do any and all jobs ! So unfortunately have a German Shepard who isn’t around dogs all the time so I would have to work in my clients home. I am a very clean and neat person I never leave a mess. If I was to stay in your home I would clean all the dishes and wipe down counters and vacuum if you’d like all while talking care of your fur baby.
“Tammy came by to feed the cats and change their litter boxes while we were away. She was great with the cats, and very respectful of our home while we were away. She did a great job! We would not hesitate to hire her again.”
“Tyler was great with me and my cat! She gave updates and did a great job making sure our animals acclimated to each other well. Made sure my cat had lots of attention and care.”
About: I have always been the one to volunteer to pet sit just because I am an animal lover. I have 2 presa canarios that just turned 5 and a cat That turned 9! I typically let my dogs out 3x per day and can let someone elses babies out between 6-8am / 8pm-1am weekdays. I have open availability on the weekends as needed I do not have a backyard so I take my dogs on 20-30 minute walks because theyre bigger. We practice some commands 2-3x/ wk. Cats are more laid back and let you know when they want interaction.
About: I have years of experience caring for cats through my own pets, stray and rescue cats, PetSmart experience, and my current work at a veterinary clinic. I’m comfortable with cats of different ages, personalities, and care needs, including shy cats, senior cats, special-needs cats, and cats that need owner-provided medications given as directed. I understand that cats can become stressed in new environments, so I focus on keeping them comfortable, giving them space when needed, and letting them come to me at their own pace. I’m also comfortable with feeding routines, litter box care, basic grooming, nail trims, and closely monitoring their eating, drinking, bathroom habits, and overall behavior.
About: I’ve trained and taken care of many pets in the past and I love animals so much I figured it would be a great idea to pet sit for multiple people and pets. I understand that all pets have different personalities, just let me know and I will do whatever is needed to keep them comfortable and happy. I will care for your pet like it’s my own, I consider myself to be good with all types of pets. I’ll run around with them in the yard or if they like being lazy in the house, that’s okay too! I’m able to care for puppies, old, huge, little, sick, or hyper. I can’t wait to meet and care for your pets!! I am currently self employed so my schedule is very flexible! I will have plenty of time to care for your pups as much as you/they need! I have found that pups have less anxiety when they’re in their own home but I am more than willing to provide pet care in my home! Also I know pricing on here can be a little weird, we can discuss whatever is comfortable for you.
“Kayla was amazing! I needed a sitter very last minute and she was perfect. She was prompt in answering the booking request and any messages. She took amazing care of my crazy pups and made sure to keep me updated on how they were doing and made sure everyone ate and went potty. Will 100% be using her again!”
About: I’ve taken care of my dogs since I was 11. I was told I had to do all the puppy chores if I wanted a puppy so I’ve always walked, bathed, feed, and played with them as much as possible. I love all dogs no matter the shape or size. I also live on a big farm where they would be able to play and run all day long. I currently work a full-time job three days a week. It can depends on my schedule, but I get my schedule months in advance, so I’m available on the days that my calendar says I’m available and I’m normally available every other weekend. I do go to college but I’m online this semester so I’ll be home the days I don’t work. We have all kinds of toys and room for them to play. I live in a neighborhood. I don’t have a fenced in yard but they would be able to run all day as they pleased and run inside as they please and go on fun trips and do all that kind of stuff while they’re with me my parents also have a big farm so there might be days where I decide to go out there and I could take your pups with me and they can run and run and play all day long on the farm.I also never mind to bath them if they get dirty!

About: A little about me! My friends and family call me the animal whisperer, the minute I meet any animal it’s like we form an instant bond of mutual trust. I have grown up surrounded by mainly dogs, cats and snakes. I love playing inside/outside with my pets 24/7. Hiking, running, swimming or exploring/walking, if your babies love to adventure I’m here for it! I rescued and trained to service level both my cat and Belgian Malinois. I have taken care of my friends and family’s pets my entire life, trusting me to give their pets a little pet staycation while they’re on vacation. I am from Southern California, I’ve been mainly pet/house sitting and doing drop ins in the Sango area for about a year now. I have a lot of experience with all types of breeds, especially the dominant ones. I have had 5 bully/pitbulls. I also study animal behaviors to better understand and communicate for their wellness. To ease your stress/worries, your babies will be in knowledgeable, loving hands. I can dedicate as much time as you/they need to your babies. I freelance, doing a few different types of jobs but they normally do not overlap or cause me to be away from home/your home for longer than a couple to a few hours. I am a very active person, I do hybrid training everyday that includes street/trail running and weights/calisthenics. I normally do this early in the morning for 1-3 hours. If I’m not with your babies, I’m at my house a couple times throughout the day to care for my babies then I’m back at yours! I care for your pets at your home, I can stay or go as long as you’d like, keep them outside playing or inside- everything is your preference. I’d love to do whatever makes you feel most comfortable. As far as your home, if there’s anything you need me to do please let me know! I will do little things that I see here and there such as, bringing in any packages, cleaning up and taking out trash.

“Jessica was amazing!! We needed a last minute sitter for our brand new, very needy 9 week old puppy, and she was more than up to the task. We were very comforted by her friendliness and the frequent updates. Will definitely use her again in the future!”
“I needed a few hours to complete shopping. I am visiting from out of town and needed a place to let my big boys play and run! This was fantastic! Super friendly. Responsive. And same day (with only an hour notice) such a life saver!”
“EMILY IS INCREDIBLE!!! If we could give her 1 million stars, we would. Her place is nice, her dogs are precious, and her heart is huge. Ana was super happy and comfortable and just fit into the pack beautifully. They all treated Ana and us like family. What a blessing!!! Thank you Emily and Austin and Jo and Fancy and Izzy.”
“AMAZING! Thank you so much for taking care of our small pup! Our ball of energy came home tired which tells us he had lots of fun playing at pup daycare! Also, quick with responding which is a great plus and nice home with a large fenced yard for all the pups to play in! Will definitely book again!”
“Patrick and Chris are excellent dog sitters and all around great people. I work early mornings in the hospital before any other daycares open and was worried I would have no place to bring my 4 month old puppy. They willingly took my pup in at 0515 am. She was so excited to see them the next morning. We will absolutely use them again!”
“Heather has watched our dogs enough times now that our Australian Shepherd starts getting excited the second we turn on her road! Our dogs LOVE going there! We are very thankful to have found someone we can trust to watch our babies for us!”
“Adria took great care of Ranger and sent updates with photos. She also accepted my request on rather short notice. I could tell Ranger had a fun time walking and hanging out with her. Overall, we were both very satisfied and would happily contact her for daycare again!”
“Maria took amazing care of our baby ! Our puppy has a lot of energy and Maria was super accommodating to our baby’s need. She updated me throughout and send pictures while we were away. She also accepted the booking even tho it was pretty last minute. Would highly recommend her and would book with her again!”
About: I have owned and cared for animals since I can remember and have been pet sitting officially for the past three years. I briefly studied Veterinary Assistance in college but ultimately decided, owning my own pet business one day was the dream job for me. I provide two daily walks on our 6 acre property during boarding and an exciting day of life on the farm. We have an indoor/outdoor fenced in play yard as well as a comfy cozy living room setting boarding room. If you still can’t picture all the fun your pup will have here, call or text to set up and meet and greet and come and see us! We are a family business so your pups will get loved and cuddled every chance we get. I am excited to meet and care for your babies as if they were my own and look forward to seeing you all soon!

Large bowls of cold water, special treats, lots of belly rubs and indoor-outdoor play! WagginTails is a must 😉
About: I’ve been caring for pets for 17 years, starting at the age of 10, and my love for animals has only grown over time. I have experience with daily care routines, exercise, companionship, and basic pet needs. I understand pets are family. My goal is to provide peace of mind to pet owners while giving their pets the love, attention, and care they deserve. I’m patient, responsible, and committed to keeping pets happy, safe, and comfortable. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work remotely, which allows me to be home and fully present with pets throughout the day. This means frequent potty breaks, playtime, supervision, and plenty of attention, with pets able to move freely and feel comfortable all day long. I have a fenced in yard and 3 happy dogs who think they are human. Your pets are more than welcome to play with mine. However I can keep them separated if requested. If crates are necessary for your pets I can incorporate that as well. Whatever suite you and your pets needs!
About: I've taken care of many types of dogs my whole life. In our adult years, my husband and I have watched many dogs for friends. We welcome senior dogs, puppies and anything in between. We do have two dogs of our own who are very friendly. I am a stay at home mom over the summer so my schedule is very open to take care of pets. My daughters are 5 and 7 and will be with me for all pet care. I have a fenced in yard and two friendly dogs to play with your pup. We have a doggy door installed and a large water bowl. We have crates and places to put additional crates if needed.
“Morgan is incredible - amazing, kind, patient, trusting and reliable! We just got a new puppy who is not yet trained and she’s so wonderful with him. My husband and I highly recommend and truly appreciate her! Thank you :)”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a little girl. I love small, medium, and large dogs and cats! I used to own an American bully but unfortunately his owner wanted him back. I enjoy playing, watching, dressing up, and walking all pets! I currently work full time Sun-Wed but I am home most of the time. I have a 3 day weekend, Thursday-at so I’m definitely home and bored lol. I love being around pets! I own a townhome with a garage. My backyard is fenced behind an interstate. I also have an extra bedroom and lots of living space room for the pet to run around!
About: Hi, I’m Daphne! As a military wife, I understand that life can bring some unexpected, last minute schedule changes. So if there’s a day/weekend where you have to be away, I’d be more than happy to help watch over your fur baby! As a fitness instructor who values keeping an active lifestyle, I dedicate time to my own dogs by taking them out on neighborhood walks, trails, & play dates — so if you need care full of fun for your pup, look no further! Both of my dogs, Presley and Winston, play well with other dogs but can still be old souls who lay around and sleep all day too. A bit about our fam: We have a passion for animal rescue and welfare. We’ve fostered, volunteered, and have been active in our animal shelter. I have background handling both small and big dogs, dogs with high energy, and defeated dogs who have had overall rough lives. If we see any dog in need, no matter if it’s at 11pm, in the rain, or running through the roads, we will without hesitation, stop to help give that dog whatever it is they may need. We have come across many strays and have helped reunite them with their families or have found them forever homes with the help of our local animal shelters. Our dream life is working alongside a local animal rescue back home after military life and continuing to rescue & rehabilitate more dogs in need! If you need those “after hours” drop off/pick up times — don’t hesitate to ask! I‘m currently home full-time so I am flexible with your schedule. My camera roll is filled with pics of my own dogs so you can expect constant photos, videos, and updates on your baby throughout their time with me! I separate dogs at feeding times and keep them in their individual crate overnight. Crating is for their safety as I wouldn’t want anything harmful happening to them overnight when I am not watching! They may behave well in your home but in new environments, I want to take extra precautions. The dogs are not inside for more than 2 hours as I let them outside for potty breaks and outdoor playtime often, with weather conditions kept in mind. My goal for drop-ins is to make each visit feel familiar and stress-free by sticking to their routine as much as possible and caring for them just like you would! *I kindly ask that you provide your pup’s kennel for boarding as they must be crate trained. I do not accept dogs with history of excessive barking and/or chewing/destruction/escaping when crated*
About: At our home, dogs are treated like family not just pets. We provide a safe, clean, and loving environment where every dog receives personalized attention, plenty of exercise, playtime, and affection. We understand that every dog has a unique personality and routine, so we take the time to learn their individual needs to help them feel comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. Pet care is a natural part of our daily routine and something we genuinely enjoy. Our schedule allows us to provide frequent potty breaks, regular walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of one-on-one attention throughout the day. We build our day around the dogs in our care to ensure they maintain a consistent routine that closely matches what they’re used to at home. We have 3 children who love dog we have 2 dogs ourselves. We have new clean home and shortly will be installing brand new fence for the dogs to run around on a acre of property
“Jessica was great with my lil baby. He was tuckered out for the night. Jessica was quick to respond and provided pictures of his day. Will definitely book with her again”

From then on my aunt gave other people my number and information and I started animal sitting all kinds of creatures ! It’s my favorite thing to do !

About: I've cared for dogs big and small since I was eleven. I've watched pets, dogs and cats, for my neighbors and family who needed a caregiver while they're out. I've given the animals baths, walked them around their neighborhood, kept them fed and cared for, and I've stayed the night at my relatives for their dogs. They're typically calm and happy around me, despite separation anxiety. I love animals more than most people! I have full open availability with no other pressing school or work obligations. Sitting and dog walking fits perfectly into my routine as a very active person who needs a lot of walking and stimulation myself. It depends on what the client has provided for me at their home and what they have instructed me to do. I'll take them outside or keep them in per the owners' requests.
About: I have had dogs for most of my life. At a very young age I fell in awe with my four legged friends! I have cared for my own dogs from puppies till their senior years of life, with care and compassion. I have three amazing dogs currently one is young (Shasta) and the two are my seniors (Phelan and Joey). I have rescued most of my pets, and I have had the ability to train and rehabilitate some. Every single one of them have always had the utmost care, love and respect individually, no matter the breed. I am currently working as a mobile notary and set my own schedule, which allows me the flexibility and time needed to meet the needs of pet care into my daily and weekly routine. I will care for your pet as if they were my own. I know firsthand how stressful it can be to trust someone other than yourself to meet the needs and care of your fur babies. I will follow your directions and guidance to always make sure that I am meeting the specific requirements of care and need for each one of your pets individually. Communication is key!
About: What truly sets me apart is not just my love for dogs, but the hands-on experience I have caring for a wide range of breeds and personalities. I currently have three dogs of my own a sweet 8-year-old Chihuahua-Yorkie mix who is our spoiled little baby, a very energetic Shih Tzu who keeps me on my toes, and a gentle giant of a German Shepherd who’s just a big cuddly lovebug. Because of them, I have real-life experience managing everything from small, senior pups to large, high-energy breeds. I’m especially patient with hyper dogs I know how to keep them active, happy, and well-behaved. Whether it’s caring for older dogs who need extra love or keeping up with pups who never seem to run out of energy, I genuinely enjoy every moment of it. I treat every dog like family and strive to make them feel safe, loved, and entertained while you're away. You can trust that your furry friend will be in caring and capable hands! I currently work part-time with a flexible schedule, which means I get to choose the shifts that work best for me. This allows me to easily plan around pet sitting needs. As long as I’m given a little notice, I can adjust my work hours to fit your schedule whether that’s for regular check-ins, overnight care, or last-minute plans. You can feel confident that your pet will get the attention and care they deserve without any conflicts. Although I don’t have a fenced yard, I make up for it by using leashes and taking pets on regular walks around my neighborhood or to nearby parks. I enjoy being active and love spending time outdoors with the dogs, giving them plenty of exercise and enrichment. My own dogs are very friendly and would love the extra company, which helps create a warm and welcoming environment for any visiting pets. I’m dedicated to making sure every pet feels comfortable, safe, and cared for whether they’re staying in my home or I'm visiting them in theirs.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a little girl. I love small, medium, and large dogs and cats! I used to own an American bully but unfortunately his owner wanted him back. I enjoy playing, watching, dressing up, and walking all pets! I currently work full time Sun-Wed but I am home most of the time. I have a 3 day weekend, Thursday-at so I’m definitely home and bored lol. I love being around pets! I own a townhome with a garage. My backyard is fenced behind an interstate. I also have an extra bedroom and lots of living space room for the pet to run around!
“It was great having Noel to walk Kona. She had very good communication with us getting this walk set up and is very polite, kind, and respectful. Our dog had no reservation about meeting her and going on the walk with here. I highly recommend Noel for her services.”
About: I have taken care of my own pets (cats & dogs) as well as for neighbors, friends, and family most of my life and I will always treat them like my own. My own black lab fur baby is a senior girl. I've had her since she was a pup, so I have experience with all stages of life with dogs. I also have 2 cats and love playtime & snuggling with them (on their own terms of course). I am doing Rover exclusively for the time being, so my schedule is very open 7 days a week. I can do feedings, potty breaks, play time & exercise periodically throughout the day as needed. I have no problem with boarding/overnight stays anytime as well! I am a responsible pet parent, and I will always treat your fur babies like they are my own. I treat them how I would want mine to be treated if I were using these services. I will always follow your directions for feeding, rules, & boundaries. You can trust that your babies will be safe and have a fun time while you are away!
“Kayla is wonderful with our Dottie girl! Dottie is so excited to see her. She is a new pup and Kayla is so patient, kind and playful with her! Kayla is incredibly communicative, she is always timely and gives us such peace of mind knowing our Dottie is in great hands! We feel so fortunate to get to work with Kayla!”
About: I volunteered at an animal shelter for 2 years with all different breeds and sizes of dogs. I had 2 dogs growing up who I took care of my whole life. Up until recently putting them down. I got my own puppy and grew an even stronger love for animals. I started working at a doggy daycare where we also have fosters and have been working there now 2 years I work most weekdays at the daycare- but am able to work around schedules to provide for your fur baby’s and make sure they are comfortable, well fed, and exercised according to their specific needs! I prefer not to crate- rather have more freedom and play through the day. Throwing a ball outside, taking a walk, maybe some enrichment activities which are good for the mind and tiring
“Ayla was a wonderful sitter and walker! She even brought an extra food bowl for my pup when I told her I only had his water bowl! She was attentive, on time and lovely to work with! Thank you Ayla??”
About: A little about me! My friends and family call me the animal whisperer, the minute I meet any animal it’s like we form an instant bond of mutual trust. I have grown up surrounded by mainly dogs, cats and snakes. I love playing inside/outside with my pets 24/7. Hiking, running, swimming or exploring/walking, if your babies love to adventure I’m here for it! I rescued and trained to service level both my cat and Belgian Malinois. I have taken care of my friends and family’s pets my entire life, trusting me to give their pets a little pet staycation while they’re on vacation. I am from Southern California, I’ve been mainly pet/house sitting and doing drop ins in the Sango area for about a year now. I have a lot of experience with all types of breeds, especially the dominant ones. I have had 5 bully/pitbulls. I also study animal behaviors to better understand and communicate for their wellness. To ease your stress/worries, your babies will be in knowledgeable, loving hands. I can dedicate as much time as you/they need to your babies. I freelance, doing a few different types of jobs but they normally do not overlap or cause me to be away from home/your home for longer than a couple to a few hours. I am a very active person, I do hybrid training everyday that includes street/trail running and weights/calisthenics. I normally do this early in the morning for 1-3 hours. If I’m not with your babies, I’m at my house a couple times throughout the day to care for my babies then I’m back at yours! I care for your pets at your home, I can stay or go as long as you’d like, keep them outside playing or inside- everything is your preference. I’d love to do whatever makes you feel most comfortable. As far as your home, if there’s anything you need me to do please let me know! I will do little things that I see here and there such as, bringing in any packages, cleaning up and taking out trash.
About: Attention to your animals needs, all animals are the most precious especially seniors. I’m comfortable with giving medication, highly communicative and flexible. I know basic grooming skills, most comfortable with any breed. I know how to deal with animals with separation anxiety or anxiety issues. I’m currently a stay at home dog mom & wife. I have plenty of time to care for your fur babies while you are away. I’m available anytime. I also have a background working in animal care, I use to work as a kennel technician and also worked under a veterinarian. Before we even book a sitting I love to meet with my clients and fur friends to see if we’re a perfect match. I always like to know what the dog/cat is like so I can build trust more easily
About: I’ve trained and taken care of many pets in the past and I love animals so much I figured it would be a great idea to pet sit for multiple people and pets. I understand that all pets have different personalities, just let me know and I will do whatever is needed to keep them comfortable and happy. I will care for your pet like it’s my own, I consider myself to be good with all types of pets. I’ll run around with them in the yard or if they like being lazy in the house, that’s okay too! I’m able to care for puppies, old, huge, little, sick, or hyper. I can’t wait to meet and care for your pets!! I am currently self employed so my schedule is very flexible! I will have plenty of time to care for your pups as much as you/they need! I have found that pups have less anxiety when they’re in their own home but I am more than willing to provide pet care in my home! Also I know pricing on here can be a little weird, we can discuss whatever is comfortable for you.

“I was so happy that Skilar sent me pictures and updates during my pups stay with her! I had cold feet at first because this was Merediths (my pup) first stay with someone at their home. I highly recommend Skilar, as she made my doggy as at home as she made me feel confident leaving her!”
“I don't use Rover very often, and am quite hesitant about leaving our pup with new people. However, Kandace made me feel at ease from her friendly demeanor and questions to ensure Ginger's comfort in her stay. I received photos throughout her stay, and her happiness is clear in the photos. We have found our go-to Rover sitter!”
“Mo was absolutely amazing. Kept me informed with videos and pictures once a day. She kept me updated about how he was doing as well. She had a very nice big fenced yard for him. Would definitely recommend!”
“Hope was phenomenal and we will absolutely use her again! Any concern of mine was addressed promptly, concerns of hers were brought to my attention right away, and she sent plenty of updates and pictures. Thabk you!”
“Daphne watched our baby for us to go on a weekend trip to nashville. When we got back my baby didnt want to leave her lol I had to pull him. She's great. A real animal person and animal lover.”
“We rest easy every night of our vacation away because we know our purebred golden lovebug Copper [12 years young] is safe and well cared for at Miss Heather's. She provides photos every morning, ongoing open transparent communication, Heather clearly cares for everyone equally. Whether over weeks including dropoff on Xmas 2025 through New Years 2026 and days before Memorial Day 2026, we also know Heather understands how Copper does not do well with either thunder or fireworks. We knew after a single night tryout, that all future stays (so far averaged 11 nights/12 days total) Copper is staying as closest to being at home with us.”
“Morgan and her family were amazing! They honestly went above and beyond with caring for Blue. She sent so much lovely photos and a couple of videos showing that he was having a really good time in their home with their dogs and kiddos. She even pointed out a few things that he can use some help on when we asked. If we ever needed to go out of town again Morgan would absolutely be the first person we asked. She clearly cares deeply for her dogs and her family and it translated really incredibly to how she cared for our boy.”
“If I could recommend one person to watch after my Rookie, it would have to be Jessica!! She is an excellent communicator, and sent several pictures throughout Rookies stay. I highly recommend Jessica and I know Rookie is looking forward to his next stay with them!!”
“Jessica communicated so well all week while watching our baby! I was nervous to leave him for so long but she sent updates and pictures and answered so fast!! Would recommend her for the anxious doggy parents and will book again!!!”
“We appreciate Jill and Aaron so much! They were so cooperative with us when our scheduling was all out of whack. Such kind and friendly people. We received constant videos of our pup and they let us know how he was everyday! This was our first time boarding with them but it will definitely not be our last! Thank you guys so much”
“I can't say enough good things about Leslie! She's trustworthy, caring, and went above and beyond to keep my dog happy and comfortable. I'll definitely be booking her again and recommending her to all my friends!”
“Maria took great care of our dog and provided us with consistent updates with pictures. We particularly appreciated Maria offering a "meet & greet", the day prior to drop-off. Which made us very comfortable boarding our dog with her, because we knew it was going to be a good fit. We definitely would use Maria's services, again :)”
“I left my older german shepherd Apollo with Roy for a week and it was a great experience! He gave me updates, gave him his medicine as instructed and took great care of him. If I needed a dog sitter again he would be my first choice!”
“We used Heidi for this first time over the 4th of July and it went amazing! she took care of him like he was her own. Kept him on his schedule and sent constant updates on how he was doing. It allowed us to relax on our family trip knowing our fur family member was being well taken care of. We would absolutely use her again! Thank you Heidi!!”
