Highly-rated overnight sitters - Carrollton
“Alisha was amazing to work with! She took great care of my dog, Ruger, and kept me updated the whole time. I received lots of cute pictures of Ruger and her dog, Bella, playing together. She has a big fenced in backyard which gave Ruger lots of opportunities to get in his exercise and to play with Bella. I highly recommend Alisha to look after your fur baby and I will definitely be taking Ruger to her again if I need a sitter.”
“We are very pleased with the excellent care our little girl received from Michelle. It's great to know your fur babies are being well taken care of when you're away from them.”
“Kim was great with our pup. He came home very happy. Trusting someone you don’t know well with part of your family isn’t easy. But from the moment I dropped my dog off, I knew instantly he would be loved and cared for. I had no fears leaving him and would absolutely recommend Kim as a sitter/boarder. My family does a lot of traveling and I would be more than pleased to have her watch him again!”
“Sabrina and her family are fabulous. Both of my dogs enjoyed their stay. When I went to pick them up, both of my dogs were excited to see me, and the one went right back up to their porch! I'd say he loved it!”
“Absolutely love them! We don't use a sitter often because Gypsy is a little high energy but they were great with her. Super cute pictures with updates, made sure she ate (which she doesn't do if she's stressed), and she got to play with Yoshi ❤ Will definitely be using them again!”
“Sarah is great and very knowledgeable. I asked questions and she relieved any concerns I had regarding my pup and him staying with her for the night. My pup did very well, and I plan on having him stay with her whenever I need boarding services.”
“I have no doubt that Patricia loved our dog as her own while we were away. She communicated with me while we were away and sent pictures of the fun things they were doing together. She is a true dog lover and I would for sure hire her again!”
“Jessica was amazing with our pups. She kept us updated on how their days were going along with pictures and video. I would definitely book with her again and anyone reading this should as well.”
“This was our first time using Ralph and he took great care of our greyhound'boxer mix Kato while we were away for Thanksgiving week. Kato is young and energetic and can be a handful. We've only had Kato for a few months and were concerned with how well Kato would do away from his new environment. Kato was very relaxed with Ralph and we are grateful for finding Ralph and the great care he provded.”
About: Experience in Shelters, Boarding Kennels, Training Facilities, Grooming Salons and Pet Stores. Certified from Animal Behavior College and took more Animal Behavior classes at Karen Pryor Academy and Unity College. I’m currently working part time while trying to build my business, Moffit Menagerie Pet Services. Please message me for availability and I’ll see what I can do! I care for every pet in a way that suits their individual needs and keeps them safe and happy!

At my home, I have a setup that allows me to keep dogs separated as needed.
About: Dogs have been a significant part of my life, holding a special place in my heart. Growing up, my mother was involved in rescuing dogs, and we even took part in fostering. This experience exposed me to dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I've undergone basic dog training and share my life with a 3-year-old Bernese Mountain Dog named Millie. Prior to Millie, we had a beloved hound dog named Evie, who was a cherished companion for 15 years. My love for dogs spans every age, and I appreciate the unique needs and characteristics that come with each stage of their lives. I currently work from home full-time however, my schedule allows for flexibility through the week day where I can be available for walks, bathroom breaks, playtime, and snuggles. I would be happy to come get your pup out for a long walk before you return home. I would be happy to take your pup to a park to walk or around your neighborhood. I have a dog harness for safe traveling. I could also bring your pet to my home to play with my dog for a playdate. We have a nice fenced-in backyard with plenty of room to run. Our dog is wonderful with other dogs as well- big and small.
“Kaleigh was great with my dogs! She took great care of them while we were out of town. Sent me several pictures too which eased my mind about having a new sitter. Will definitely rebook with her in the future. Thanks Kaleigh for everything you did for the girls!”
“Nikki was absolutely amazing!! She not only cared for our Stella but calmed all my worries about leaving her. Nikki has a true compassion for animals and it shows. Thank you Nikki for taking such good care of our baby girl!”
“Dog had a great time. Easy drop off and easy pick up. Kayti is very nice and very professional. Didn’t have to worry about anything while we were good. Seemed to be in good hands after dropping off!”
“Jennifer and her family provided excellent care for my senior dog, Molly. Molly was loved and well taken care of. Molly wasn't stressed when I picked her up and felt right at home with Jennifer's family. I can't say enough great things! Excellent communicator, received pictures daily, beautiful clean home, nice, kind and welcoming! When needing a sitter, she's always my first go-to. Jennifer is the absolute BEST!”
“Kathy had our fur boy for a week while we were out of the country. He became sick and she had to take him to the vet. She took very good care of him and kept us informed! Thanks again!”

“Shannon was a great companion for my pet while I was away. She even accommodated me when travel troubles delayed my return home and checked on my cat for an extra day. I really appreciate her communication and readiness to help!”
About: I've taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember. We've always had at least one dog in our household and also currently live with a cat. I have also walked other dogs and have taken care of dogs here on my own. I currently am unemployed and am not yet in school so my schedule is completely open. The only issue that I might have for these next few months would be an issue with scheduling with the rest of my household. I have experience handling large and small dogs and do not get worried if the dog gets worked up. I am very aware of how empathetic dogs are and can remain calm. I also can keep to a schedule and give pets the love and care they need and deserve.
“Jennifer is a pet lover doggies and kittens. She took such great care of our cats while we were out of town for a few days. She is trust worthy and went above and beyond staying to give our cats love and was flexible feeding our special needs cats and giving medication. We will definitely be hiring Jennifer again! Thank you Jennifer!”
“Logan was amazing he was great with Joel. Gave medicine with no problems. Joel warmed up to him. I would use him again and refer to others. Thank you for such a good job.”
“Molly was an incredible cat-sitter for a whole week. She took our cat to the backyard on a harness for walks at our request, played with him, brushed him, fed him, and gave us great photos of all of this to boot—even some action shots. We came home and he was totally at ease, clearly having just made a new friend. She took up our offer to do a meet and greet and was very communicative and thorough in all aspects. She even noticed when the litter robot was getting low on litter and offered to replenish it, even though she hadn’t deal with one before. We will definitely be requesting her for future trips if she’s available! Thank you, Molly!”
“Amelia took wonderful care of my dog Bailey! I’ll definitely try to book time with Amelia again. She provided detailed updates and photos which were reassuring to receive. This is the first time I’ve had someone take care of my dog and Bailey enjoyed her time spent with Amelia.”
“Laura is perfect! She has such a nice personality, she arrives on time, feeds our kittens and plays with them. She gave us daily updates with pictures while we were on vacation to let us know everything was going well. We will definitely have Laura watch our kittens again!”
“Maryssa is fantastic with my dogs, Turbo and Daisy! She’s reliable, caring, and clearly loves animals. She even checks on my horses while she’s there, which means a lot to me. It’s such a relief knowing all my animals are in great hands. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve been caring for cats since I was 16, from playful kittens to senior cats with special routines. I understand how unique each cat’s personality can be—some love constant attention, while others need quiet companionship. Whether it’s feeding, playtime, or keeping their space tidy, I make sure every cat feels comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away.
About: What sets me apart is my professional experience and my genuine love for caring for cats. I understand that every cat has a unique personality, and I take the time to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for in their own environment. I have experience working in boarding facilities where I cared for cats with a variety of needs and temperaments. My responsibilities included feeding, cleaning litter boxes, administering medications when needed, monitoring behavior and overall health, and making sure each cat received the attention and enrichment they needed. Whether your cat is social and playful or prefers quiet companionship, I adapt my care to what makes them happiest. In addition to my professional experience, I have cared for cats for friends, family, and members of my local community while they were away. I understand how important it is to maintain your cat’s normal routine to reduce stress, and I take the time to provide individualized care, whether that means playtime, cuddles, grooming, or simply giving them space while ensuring all of their needs are met. I pride myself on being reliable, patient, and attentive to detail. I’ll provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your cat is happy, healthy, and in good hands. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible by treating your cat with the same love, patience, and care I would give my own.
“This was Olivia’s first time watching our cats and she was seriously outstanding. She really went above and beyond, overcoming some inconveniences to provide excellent care. I highly recommend.”
“Nikki did a great job watching my dog so I could go get my hair done. She has a very calm demeanor about her when it comes to dogs and that’s exactly what my dog needed. I would recommend Nikki!”
“Shannon is absolutely incredible. My blind, diabetic, 13.5 year old pup has a hard time feeling comfortable with others but with her, it seemed almost instant. I felt so comfortable knowing Gizmo was in great hands. She proactively updated me throughout the evening, letting me know how he was doing which eased my mind and allowed me to enjoy my night out.”
“Michelle was wonderful! She was easy to book, she stayed in contact, and sent us pictures of our 2 cats during her visits. We felt very comfortable on our holiday knowing our pets were in good hands!”
About: The second I moved out of my parent’s house I chose to get a pet cat. For the past almost 4 years we have grown so close together. I’ve learned through friends and meeting other cats, that each cat has their own VERY distinct personality and boundaries. I love to learn about each cat I meet and figure how we best mesh while we are together.
“We love Maria! She is very flexible and anyone who can handle my two little gremlins is a superhero! We have her come over a few days weekly due to our crazy work schedule and will continue to do so! Saves us so much trouble and the pups are so grateful! ?”
About: I have loved cats and animals my entire life and have been caring for pets at home for as long as I can remember. Growing up with a mom who was a former veterinarian, caring for animals runs in my family. I understand that every cat has their own personality, routine, and comfort level. I’m patient, attentive, and committed to providing loving, reliable care while making sure your cat feels safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Carrollton
“I'm SO thankful to Lynda for watching my big, anxious boy! I was in town camping at bay City with my dog and friends and realized the weather was far too hot for him to be outside all day so I found Lynda last minute to take Atlas during the day when it was the hottest and she accomadated my last minute request! My Atlas can be skiddish and anxious easily and he ended up having a fantastic time I was so pleased and it was such a weight off my shoulders to know he was well taken care of! She sent pictures, videos and updates the whole time. Highly recommend!”
“Marley had so much fun at michele’s house yesterday! She got to play and socialize with other dogs and Michele made sure to send updates and pictures during the day! Both visits Marley had made with Michele have gone amazing and we definitely plan on booking another!”
“Our dog Hank loved his stay at Sarah’s! He was able to spend a lot of the day playing outside with other dogs and was tuckered out when we picked him up (which was perfect). Sarah communicated with us throughout Hanks stay and leading up to it. Would totally recommend to anyone looking for dog care.”
“Sabrina is very communicative about my baby and Jenny has a fantastic time at her house. I love seeing the pictures of Jenny and her son playing together as well as her little pup. She’s a godsend. I highly recommend Sabrina.”

“Vickie is the best! We were about 45 minutes later than expected, and she was very understanding about it. I wish the app didn’t limit how much we can tip, she deserves much more.”
“Megan was great with Buster! She really treated him like one of her own. She is attentive, understanding, and insightful. I would definitely recommend her for any of your dog’s needs.”
“Jennifer and her family were wonderful with Loki. He can be very timid and they allowed us to come for a "Meet & Greet" the day before our stay, which helped him be more comfortable. Thanks for the photos and the care you gave to Loki during his stay. We will be back again:)”

As a business owner who manages my own time, I prioritize reliability and responsiveness, ensuring that your pet’s needs are always met with the highest level of care and attention. Commitment to Quality Care in Your Home When caring for your pet in your home, I strive to go above and beyond to ensure both your pet's well-being and your peace of mind. If I notice anything out of place or in need of tidying, I’m happy to help—but always with your prior approval. I understand that personal preferences vary; some clients prefer to handle certain tasks themselves, while others appreciate the extra assistance. My goal is to respect your space and treat your home with the same level of care I would my own. Having spent the last two years renovating my own home, I deeply understand the importance of maintaining a clean and organized environment. Safety and Pet Care Best Practices Your pet’s safety is my top priority, and I take every precaution to ensure their well-being: Secure Transportation: If I transport your pet, they will always be properly restrained with a seatbelt or pet travel carrier for safety. Leash & Walk Safety: On walks, I ensure pets do not pick up items from the ground. I also clean their paws after every outing, just as I do with my own pets. Hygiene & Health: If your pet gets dirty, I will provide a bath with your permission. Any medical concerns will be addressed immediately, and I am trained in emergency pet first aid, excluding surgical procedures. Home Security: I will ensure all doors and windows are securely locked when leaving your home. Privacy & Updates: I will only take photos of your pet for your updates and will never photograph your home without permission. Supervision & Outdoor Time: Pets in my care will never be left alone in a vehicle or outside unattended, even in my fenced yard. Cats will remain indoors unless they are harness-trained and you request outdoor time. Stranger Interaction: While on walks, your pet will not interact with strangers or other animals unless pre-approved for socialization. Pet Care in My Home Pets in my home receive dedicated supervision unless prior arrangements are made: Dogs: If a dog is staying with me and needs to be left alone for an extended period, I require a crate for their safety and comfort. However, my schedule is highly flexible, minimizing the time they are left alone. Cats: Cats may be left unsupervised in a designated, pet-safe room with regular check-ins. Handling Aggressive or Special Needs Pets I have extensive experience with fearful, reactive, and aggressive pets, but clear and honest communication is essential: Cats: I am comfortable handling feral or aggressive cats and will take the necessary time to build trust. I can administer medication as needed, but I require full transparency about their behavior to ensure safety for all. Dogs: I can accommodate dogs with minor behavioral challenges, such as leash reactivity or mild anxiety. However, for safety reasons, I cannot accept: Dogs over 50 lbs who are not at least moderately leash-trained. Dogs requiring a muzzle or choke collar in public settings. Dogs with severe aggression or unpredictable behavior. Double-Booking Policy For the safety and well-being of all pets, I do not double-book boarding, daycare, or walks unless all parties have given consent and a meet-and-greet has taken place. If multiple dogs are staying in my home at the same time, a meet-and-greet is required. Even if the dogs get along, they will not be left alone together unless securely crated. Cats and dogs boarding in my home simultaneously will be kept in separate areas with no contact.
“Kathy is amazing. Isabel can be timid when she goes to a new place, but she walked into Kathy's like she lived there. Made it much easier to leave my fur baby for daycare.”
About: I’m a special education teacher looking to earn extra money. I can help you on a busy day or while on vacation by taking great care of your fur baby. I have 3 cats and have been around animals my whole life. I can help with pets after 4pm, on weekends, and any time during school breaks. I’m close to most places in the tri-cities and have reliable transportation. I love going for walks with dogs, playing catch, snuggling cats, making sure they eat, and help them feel safe and happy while you are away. I’m great at communication and will keep you updated if you want reassurance things are going well while you are gone.
About: I've been around and have helped care for dogs and cats all shapes and sizes. Each one I've personally owned are a part of the family! I would take care of your fur baby like I'd want mine taken care of. I am a homeschooling mom which means your fur baby will be kept company while in my care. During the school year, on Saturdays, we sometimes will have sporting events to go to, as well as some week nights we will go to extracurricular practices but never gone for long! I currently have Midland's rail trail right in my back yard for nice walks if that's something you would like done. When we move in March we will have a large open park right in our backyard! We have a sweet Goldador at home that loves playmates and also two cats that sleep the day away. My three kids (ages 8 - 13) have been shown from the beginning how to respect and love animals and they will be a wonderful addition to keeping your fur babies feeling loved and cared for!
“Blythe was very accommodating. She took us as a fairly last minute booking since we had a funeral and my previous sitter had just moved away. My pickup estimate was off and she was kind enough to keep Grokii an hour or two longer than expected even though it coincided with putting her kids to bed. Her kids are absolutely adorable and I know Grokii was doted on because he slept almost the entire next day. Great family - highly recommend!”

About: I’m just getting started on Rover! I have lots of experience with my own two cats. And I’ve helped with dogs while babysitting kids! I have 7 years of experience in behavioral work with children and lots of those skills can be applied to cats and dogs. It’s official! I’m moving back home to MI! I’ll be available through July 20th with open availability. After that please inquire as I’m not 100% sure when I’ll be in the moving process. Farewell Wisconsin! I have two indoor only cats. They’re both ginger girls so they’re both very social and loving with their dad and I. They love it when we’re home with them to cuddle, get kisses and treats!
About: What sets me apart is my professional experience and my genuine passion for caring for animals. I have over four years of hands-on experience working with dogs in a variety of settings, giving me the skills and confidence to care for pets with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I have worked in both doggy daycare and boarding facilities, where I cared for groups of dogs every day. My responsibilities included supervising playgroups, monitoring dog behavior, ensuring safe interactions, feeding, administering medications when needed, and providing individualized care for dogs of all ages and temperaments. This experience has taught me how to recognize stress signals, prevent conflicts, and make sure every dog feels safe and comfortable. In addition to my professional experience, I have volunteered as a dog walker at a local animal shelter. Working with shelter dogs has given me experience handling dogs that may be shy, fearful, or still learning to trust people. I understand the importance of patience, positive reinforcement, and adapting to each dog’s individual needs. I’ve also provided pet care for friends, family, and members of my local community, caring for dogs in their own homes while their owners were away. Whether it’s daily walks, overnight stays, sticking to feeding schedules, or simply giving pets companionship and love, I always treat every animal like they’re my own. I pride myself on being reliable, trustworthy, and maintaining excellent communication with pet owners. I’ll send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free experience where your pet feels comfortable, and you have complete peace of mind while you’re away. Pet care is something I truly enjoy, and I make it a priority in my weekly routine. I am a full-time student at Saginaw Valley State University and a member of the SVSU Dance Team, but I have a very flexible schedule and am committed to working around my classes and practices to meet the needs of my clients. I understand that pets rely on consistency, and I’m happy to accommodate early mornings, evenings, weekends, holidays, and overnight care whenever my schedule allows. I plan my time carefully so I can provide dependable, high-quality care and give every pet the attention they deserve. Whether your pet needs a quick drop-in visit, a long walk, overnight companionship, or care while you’re away for several days, I strive to be as flexible and reliable as possible. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do, it’s something I’m passionate about, and I enjoy building lasting relationships with both pets and their owners. I understand that leaving your dog in someone else's care can be a big decision, which is why I take every step to ensure your pet feels safe, secure, and comfortable. I create a calm and welcoming environment for your dog or cat, where they can feel at ease while you're away. Whether it’s keeping their routine consistent, providing plenty of mental and physical stimulation, or simply offering lots of love and attention, I’m committed to treating your pet like my own. I take safety seriously, with constant supervision, secure areas for play, and a vigilant eye to ensure no accidents happen. You can rest easy knowing that I’ll be fully attentive to your pet's needs and keep you updated with pictures and messages so you always feel connected.

My schedule is flexible and I am currently looking for part time work in the area. I will prioritize my time in order to take care of your beloved family member.

As a college student, I have availability in the mornings, most evenings, and on weekends. The only times that may be limited are mid-afternoons Monday through Thursday. For home check-ins, I will provide the services you request in the way that best fits your pet’s needs and your preferences. Walks can be discussed and agreed upon in advance, including the location and routine.
About: When I had dogs, I treated them as family. They were always loved and cared for. I am familiar with all types of dogs, as I am a retired letter carrier and have had many encounters with dogs and I can proudly say that I have never been bit by any of them. Most dogs on my old route are always extremely excited to see me when I arrive at their homes or when their family members are walking them. I have had four dogs in my life, all rescues, and am quite familiar with the needs of my canine friends. I don’t mind cleaning up after them, it is all part of loving our fur babies. Don’t kennel your dogs when they could get so much love with me. I would love to look after your furry friends.
About: I have been caring for dogs since I was 13 years old beginning with training/raising my own dog. Since then friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk feed play with and care for their pets while they’re away. I understand that every dog has a unique personality and that’s why I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable and loved. Whether your pet is a playful puppy or a senior dog who needs extra patient, I will provide dependable, loving care to treat them like one of my own, so you have peace of mind when you are away! Pet care is already apart of my daily routine. I enjoy staying active, so daily walks, playtime, feeding and giving pets the attention they need, fit easily into my schedule I plan my days to make sure everybody gets the time care and love they deserve whether it’s a quick drop and visit a long walk or an overnight care. I am committed to keeping your pet happy comfortable and on their normal routine. I believe pets thrive on structure, routine, and familiar surroundings, which is why I prefer caring for them in their own home. I follow their normal schedule as closely as possible, including feedings, walks, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. This way they feel safe, comfortable and stress-free while their families are away.

About: I've taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember. We've always had at least one dog in our household and also currently live with a cat. I have also walked other dogs and have taken care of dogs here on my own. I currently am unemployed and am not yet in school so my schedule is completely open. The only issue that I might have for these next few months would be an issue with scheduling with the rest of my household. I have experience handling large and small dogs and do not get worried if the dog gets worked up. I am very aware of how empathetic dogs are and can remain calm. I also can keep to a schedule and give pets the love and care they need and deserve.

I have a passion for animals and love to make them feel part of my family. I’m currently in respiratory school while working a part-time job, which has helped me develop strong responsibility and time-management skills.

About: We are a pet-friendly home with one cat, two older kids who love dogs and all animals, and myself who will take gentle care of your dog/s, as well as cats, and/or all other animals while you are away. No type of animal (unless aggressive) will likely be turned away. I have loved and cared for my own pet dogs, cats, birds, and other critters my entire life, and I know and understand that you are trusting me to care for a member of your family. We do not take this responsibility lightly. In addition to several years of pet care, I have also had experience and training with professional bathing and grooming of dogs and cats, and caring for special-needs animals, including puppies, kittens, elderly dogs and cats including those with arthritis and diabetes, administering medicine, and giving injections and subcutaneous fluids. Our home is relaxed and open, with "safe spaces" where we can keep your pet if they want or need their own room. We live in a friendly, calm neighborhood, great for dog-walking, and we love to go for walks and play! I work from home and have a very flexible schedule in order to accommodate your needs and I look forward to working with you and giving your special loved ones the care that they want, need, and deserve.
About: I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals.

About: I have loved animals of all kinds my entire life and have been caring for pets at home for as long as I can remember. Growing up with a mom who was a former veterinarian, caring for animals runs in my family. I understand the importance of providing pets with patience, attention, love, and proper care. I will treat every pet as if they were my own and make sure they are happy, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away.

I’m available for house sitting when my schedule allows and will discuss my availability with each client before accepting a booking.

For house sitting, I care for pets in their own home where they can stay comfortable and maintain their normal routine. I will follow your instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications if needed, potty breaks, playtime, and any household or safety guidelines. I’ll treat your home and pets with respect and make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for.

“Alisha was amazing to work with! She took great care of my dog, Ruger, and kept me updated the whole time. I received lots of cute pictures of Ruger and her dog, Bella, playing together. She has a big fenced in backyard which gave Ruger lots of opportunities to get in his exercise and to play with Bella. I highly recommend Alisha to look after your fur baby and I will definitely be taking Ruger to her again if I need a sitter.”
“Kim was great with our pup. He came home very happy. Trusting someone you don’t know well with part of your family isn’t easy. But from the moment I dropped my dog off, I knew instantly he would be loved and cared for. I had no fears leaving him and would absolutely recommend Kim as a sitter/boarder. My family does a lot of traveling and I would be more than pleased to have her watch him again!”
“Sabrina and her family are fabulous. Both of my dogs enjoyed their stay. When I went to pick them up, both of my dogs were excited to see me, and the one went right back up to their porch! I'd say he loved it!”
“Absolutely love them! We don't use a sitter often because Gypsy is a little high energy but they were great with her. Super cute pictures with updates, made sure she ate (which she doesn't do if she's stressed), and she got to play with Yoshi ❤ Will definitely be using them again!”
“Sarah is great and very knowledgeable. I asked questions and she relieved any concerns I had regarding my pup and him staying with her for the night. My pup did very well, and I plan on having him stay with her whenever I need boarding services.”
“I have no doubt that Patricia loved our dog as her own while we were away. She communicated with me while we were away and sent pictures of the fun things they were doing together. She is a true dog lover and I would for sure hire her again!”
“Jessica was amazing with our pups. She kept us updated on how their days were going along with pictures and video. I would definitely book with her again and anyone reading this should as well.”
“This was our first time using Ralph and he took great care of our greyhound'boxer mix Kato while we were away for Thanksgiving week. Kato is young and energetic and can be a handful. We've only had Kato for a few months and were concerned with how well Kato would do away from his new environment. Kato was very relaxed with Ralph and we are grateful for finding Ralph and the great care he provded.”
About: Dogs have been a significant part of my life, holding a special place in my heart. Growing up, my mother was involved in rescuing dogs, and we even took part in fostering. This experience exposed me to dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I've undergone basic dog training and share my life with a 3-year-old Bernese Mountain Dog named Millie. Prior to Millie, we had a beloved hound dog named Evie, who was a cherished companion for 15 years. My love for dogs spans every age, and I appreciate the unique needs and characteristics that come with each stage of their lives. I currently work from home full-time however, my schedule allows for flexibility through the week day where I can be available for walks, bathroom breaks, playtime, and snuggles. I would be happy to come get your pup out for a long walk before you return home. I would be happy to take your pup to a park to walk or around your neighborhood. I have a dog harness for safe traveling. I could also bring your pet to my home to play with my dog for a playdate. We have a nice fenced-in backyard with plenty of room to run. Our dog is wonderful with other dogs as well- big and small.
“Nikki was absolutely amazing!! She not only cared for our Stella but calmed all my worries about leaving her. Nikki has a true compassion for animals and it shows. Thank you Nikki for taking such good care of our baby girl!”
“Dog had a great time. Easy drop off and easy pick up. Kayti is very nice and very professional. Didn’t have to worry about anything while we were good. Seemed to be in good hands after dropping off!”
“Jennifer and her family provided excellent care for my senior dog, Molly. Molly was loved and well taken care of. Molly wasn't stressed when I picked her up and felt right at home with Jennifer's family. I can't say enough great things! Excellent communicator, received pictures daily, beautiful clean home, nice, kind and welcoming! When needing a sitter, she's always my first go-to. Jennifer is the absolute BEST!”
“It’s always a 5/5 experience with Erin! Our pup loves going there and she gives him so much love. This past time he wasn’t feeling too well before we dropped him off so Erin kept a close eye on him and sent us extra pictures/videos which put us more at ease. Absolutely recommend!”
“Kelly honestly couldn’t have been better with our Maya. Maya is 18 yrs old and has a few special considerations. Kelly made our little buddy feel right at home, sent us pics and updates on what she was doing, how she was settling in and Maya even made some little friends along the way. Do not hesitate to let Kelly host your dog. She was absolutely the best we could have asked for.”
