“Exceptional communication! Very understanding for last minute hardship situations and took in our boy last minute. Ozzy seemed to enjoy his stay as he came back a happy boy!”
“Krizza was amazing. Our dogs had a blast staying with her. She was intentional in her care for each pup and their specific needs. She treated our dogs like family. We received regular updates, pictures, and videos. They even smelled better when they returned home than when we dropped them LOL 10/10, would recommend.”
“My two cats spent a long weekend here and it's the most comfortable I've ever been with leaving them somewhere. They seemed to have a good time from the updates and pictures I got. Would highly recommend Alaina to anybody!”

About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was around 12. From feeding neighbors chickens while they were away, to staying in families houses to look after their puppies while they’re away, I’ve experienced a wide range of pet care. As the owner of an elderly cat, I am very gentle and calm, perfect for elderly pets or any sweeties that require a low stress environment. However, as the owner of a golden retriever, I know how to keep the excited ones entertained! I am a full time college student, and have a few classes everyday— no more than 3 a day and they are no longer than 2 hours at a time. I’m free in the mornings and evenings for whatever is needed! My yard is fenced, though there is an in ground pool, so I would not leave any pets unattended outside. I could crate dogs if needed. I have a friendly golden retriever to keep your babies company. I also have two cats who are sweet and mind their business. As far as in a clients home, I am very respectful of all house rules and follow any instructions given closely.

About: I have had cats my entire life, all of whom have had vastly different personalities. I’ve owned cats, fostered cats, and just kept cats for the weekend for many years now. I own a 17 year old cat, and she is the world to me, so keeping cats safe, healthy, and happy is very important to me.
“Emily was awesome and came when I requested. I was a little worried about my kitty being responsive to someone new but Emily was able to make her comfortable and play with her. I was able to enjoy my time off and not worry about my kitten. Definitely recommend!”
About: I have a degree in Animal Science and have hands-on experience caring for a wide range of animals—not just dogs and cats. I regularly house sit for families with dogs, cats, horses, pigs, ducks, cows, and chickens, so I’m very comfortable managing different care routines and environments. I have experience with puppies, including basic training, leash walking, crate routines, and positive reinforcement, as well as senior pets who may need medications, mobility support, or extra patience and attention. My education allows me to recognize changes in behavior, health, and comfort levels, and I take a calm, knowledgeable approach to animal care. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and committed to following each owner’s instructions closely. Above all, I genuinely love animals of all kinds and care for every pet as if they were my own. I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to spend plenty of time with the pets I care for. I’m also currently saving money for a big trip at the end of the year, so I have lots of availability and am happy to dedicate my time to giving your pets the attention, exercise, and care they need. Because of this schedule, I’m able to accommodate regular potty breaks, walks, feedings, medications, and check-ins and adjust my routine to match each pet’s needs. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I intentionally plan my days around the animals I’m caring for. I truly enjoy spending time with the animals I care for. Pet sitting isn’t just a responsibility for me—it’s something I genuinely look forward to. I love getting to know each animal’s personality and building trust with them, whether that’s through playtime, walks, quiet companionship, or barn chores. The time I get to spend with them is one of the best parts of what I do, and I treat every pet with patience, affection, and respect.
About: HOME AWAY FROM HOME – Luxury Cage-Free Dog Boarding & Personalized Pet Care A True Home Away From Home — No Kennels, Just Family. If your dog is used to the comfort of home, a traditional kennel can be stressful. I provide an exclusive, premium boarding experience where your furry family member is treated like one of my own. I only accept a limited number of guests at a time so every pup receives plenty of love, attention, and personalized care. What I Offer * 🏡 Cage-free home environment * 🌳 Large, secure fenced backyard for supervised play * 🛏️ VIP sleeping arrangements inside my home * 🚗 Park adventures and car rides (with owner approval) * 📸 Daily photo and video updates for your peace of mind * ❤️ Lots of cuddles, playtime, and one-on-one attention Every Dog is Different—I’m Prepared for That While my home is primarily cage-free, I understand that every dog has different needs. * If your dog is crate-trained or feels more secure sleeping in a kennel, I have a clean, comfortable kennel available. * I also have a separate fenced indoor area where dogs can enjoy their own quiet space if they prefer privacy, need a break from other dogs, are older, are anxious, or simply don’t get along with every dog. Whether your pup loves to socialize or enjoys having their own space, I can accommodate their individual personality and routine. My goal is always to make them feel safe, comfortable, and at home. For Cats – Safe, Calm & Separate Space I also care for cats, and I understand they have very different needs from dogs. For their comfort and safety, I have a dedicated separate room for cats where they can stay relaxed and stress-free. * 🐱 Private cat-only room (completely separate from dogs) * 🛏️ Cozy, quiet, and secure environment * 🌿 Space to relax, hide, and feel safe at their own pace * 🍽️ Feeding, litter care, and daily check-ins * ❤️ Gentle handling and calm environment for stress-free boarding This setup is perfect for cats who are shy, independent, or do not get along with dogs, ensuring they feel completely safe and undisturbed during their stay. My Experience I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for over 15 years. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is truly my passion. I keep pets on their regular routine by feeding them on schedule, providing daily walks, playtime, grooming, and administering medications when needed. If medication is required, I set reminders so every dose is given on time. Safety is always my top priority, whether we’re playing in the backyard, relaxing indoors, or going on a walk. My Love for Animals My love for animals goes far beyond pet sitting. Throughout my life, I’ve rescued, adopted, and fostered many animals in need. I’ve rescued abandoned puppies left in sacks, cared for abandoned mother dogs and their puppies, and saved kittens left in ditches. Seeing animals suffer has always broken my heart, so I’ve done everything I could to give them a second chance. Those experiences have shaped the way I care for every pet that stays with me. I treat each one with patience, kindness, and genuine love because I know they’re not “just pets”—they’re family. When your pet stays with me, they aren’t simply being boarded. They become part of my family until they’re back home with yours. No matter what kind of dog or cat you have—playful, shy, crate-trained, senior, energetic, or one who prefers their own space—I have a setup to help them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. A Note About My Rates ❤️ I understand that my rates may be higher than some other sitters, and I completely respect that every family has a budget. Please keep in mind that Rover includes service fees and takes a percentage of each booking, which is reflected in the overall price you see. My rates reflect the personalized, in-home care, limited number of guests, safe and secure environment, individual attention, and peace of mind I provide. Your pet isn’t simply staying at a boarding facility—they’re staying in my home, receiving the same love, attention, supervision, and care I give my own pets. When you choose me, you’re not just paying for a place for your pet to stay—you’re investing in someone you can trust to treat your furry family member like family while you’re away. ❤️🐾 My goal is for you to enjoy your time away knowing your pet is safe, loved, comfortable, and in caring hands. I am currently unemployed and a stay home Mom so I have a lot of time to look after your pups. I am available everyday. I have a fenced yard where they can play and run around and 2 dogs to keep your fur baby company. A comfortable space inside the house,clean and quiet. Can do crate if needed or trained but I would love them to be free.

My yard is fenced, though there is an in ground pool, so I would not leave any pets unattended outside. I could crate dogs if needed. I have a friendly golden retriever to keep your babies company. I also have two cats who are sweet and mind their business. As far as in a clients home, I am very respectful of all house rules and follow any instructions given closely.
“Shelby was great with my 5-month old puppy. She was reliable, friendly, and clearly great with dogs. I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog walker.”
About: I've lived with dogs my entire life, and have helped train 2 of them. I've taken care of a snake once and enjoy reptiles as much as I do dogs. I'm in Community College right now from 8:30 a.m - 11:30 a.m. After that, my day is free for me to provide my services. I have two dogs and a large yard with no fence. I would show your pets the same love I show mine while looking after them.
