“Anna is a Godsend. Our dog was in the best hands possible while we were out of town. Stop your search and go with Anna!! I will recommend her to everyone I know who has a dog. Thank you!”
“Ellie was amazing! We had a last minute trip come up as well as cancelled flights and she was so kind through all the changes. She made sure we felt comfortable with Ember’s first stay there. Even though Ember was there for only one night, she came home tired and happy which showed how much Ellie played with her and gave her attention. 100% recommend Ellie for any dog sitting needs!”
“So glad Julie kept our dog for the week. The home environment was so much better than a kennel. We also appreciated the photos and communication throughout the week. We will schedule with her again.”
“Marcia was an exceptional dog sitter during my time away. She consistently provided updates, sharing pictures of my dogs throughout the day. Her flexibility in accommodating various aspects of their stay was greatly appreciated. Marcia's kindness and attentiveness were evident, and she kept me well-informed at all times. My two pups were thoroughly worn out from playing with her and her dog, which speaks to the level of care and attention they received. I highly recommend Marcia for any pet sitting needs!”
“Kathy was fantastic with Teddy. She suggested a meet & greet prior to officially booking to make sure it was a good match. For the week that Teddy stayed with Kathy she provided photos, videos and written updates which helped keep us at ease. It is clear that Kathy loves dogs and enjoys having them in her home!”
“Luke and his family were exceptional! He was incredibly flexible with accommodations. We were able to leave Rosie and Loki with him in complete confidence that they would be taken care of, and provided daily photos and updates. I would highly recommend!”
“Alexia goes above and beyond for both our dog and for us; making sure we're informed and collaborating on behavior and obedience -- while providing a safe and active environment for our pet.”
“Our stay with Rex was fantastic. He was easy to work with and flexible on times. We appreciated the picture updates during the week. Would definitely recommend as a host.”
“I am so extremely thankful for Kelli and the great care Mickie was given! Absolutely amazing, I will ALWAYS book will Kelli!!! Communication was A++++ and I got messages and pictures throughout our trip, I was so thankful for that! Absolutely the BEST!”
“This is the first time we had ever used Rover and it was a great experience. We received several pictures to see how Layla was doing during her 18 day stay. I highly recommend Katy to care for your dogs. We will be back again!!!”
“My dog had a great time at Becky’s playing with two dogs that were there. She even went on a special family outing with them (with our permission). Becky sent pictures and videos which made our time away extra enjoyable. My dog doesn’t usually eat when she’s away from home but Becky said she had no problem with eating. I attribute that to Becky creating such a comforting, home-like experience for her. I will definitely be booking Becky again!”
“Catherine always does great with our dog! He was nursing a leg injury and had some last minute meds from the vet, and Catherine was good about sending updates and giving him the meds as needed. He came home feeling better than when we dropped him off. I highly recommend her!”

“Camryn responded immediately and came out to meet my doggies beforehand. The dogs like her! She came out with her little one, but the dogs weren't quite sure about the baby carrier with the fan on it :). They were really curious though. Camryn took good care of my fur-babies, fed them and made sure they went potty before she left. I will contact her again.”
“Ashley is always there on time and follows directions. I feel like I can trust Ashley. My cats, who can be rather picky about who they choose to be around, come out of their hiding spots when shes over.”

“Our young cat was well cared for by Casey! He had a designated safe space he could use at her house when needed, though he wasn’t shy and made himself right at home. She was very attentive to any needs he had and made sure to send pictures, which our family loved seeing. We wouldn’t hesitate to use Casey again!”
“Meghan was amazing with my 2 cats! Communication was prompt and she would provide pics and updates during her stay. There was an issue (on my side) with the litter robot and she worked through it while I was out of town, I really appreciated her dedication to resolve it. I will absolutely have her watch my cats again! Thanks Meghan!!!”
About: I grew up on a farm surrounded by animals of all kinds, which gave me a deep respect for and understanding of animal care from a young age.

I’m experienced with a wide range of feline personalities from energetic kittens to independent or shy adults and I’m patient, calm, and attentive to their individual needs.

About: We have a good sized house which we share with our sweet rescue dog, Penelope, 2 kittens, Lilo and Stitch and our almost 2 year old daughter. I offer dog walking, sitting, overnight, part day hang outs and even training! We live near several parks that are dog friendly which we frequent regularly. I've always lived with dogs but began training the family and neighbor's dogs around the age of 10. I want to make note that I understand it is a big responsibility to care for someone else's fur child and that I take it very seriously. If you have any questions, please feel free to text, or email me anytime. I am home each day with my young daughter who is great with animals but in case you prefer she stay separate, we have gates and even a heated barn if full separation is needed. Our old girl has free rein of the house, even our kitties get outside every once in a while but we have the ability to set up a small fenced in area or a zip line style tether, and of course walks as needed. We love to snuggle all furry friends but also know some prefer their space.
About: I am working on some pretty amazing updates. Additional outdoor yards are in the works, as well as a perimeter fence around the home property! I have also added Tracki to my collars. Tracki runs on global GPS (satellite feedback) and not cellular feedback, giving that extra security for your pups with no interruption in tracking! Bark & Barn is a privately insured in-home kennel that provides overnight and day boarding options as well as drop-in visits/walks for all pets, exotic included. I also provide optional training for dogs. I have five years of experience as a veterinary assistant in a high volume multi-species setting. With this, I have gained the knowledge, training, and experience in animal behavior as well as proper technique in safe animal hold, administering all forms of medication, administering emergency fluids, and animal CPR. Your pups will have access to multiple sections of my home, a fenced play yard, and walks over 120 acres of farm fields and streamed woods! I offer basic puppy training during board and day stays, including potty and crate training. I will gladly accept shark puppies, understanding completely how difficult these pups can be for many caretakers who are not experienced in their breed characteristics. I've worked with and owned dogs for over 17 years. I have a preference for high energy/high drive dogs, though I love all of them just the same. I am a farm mom of school aged children, work remotely, a full-time online student at KCC while my kids sleep, and have plenty of time to devote to your pets. I will follow strict biosecurity and safety measures. I am by no means a "doggy playcare". For their and my safety, I do not allow guest pups to interact together. I have sectioned off portions of my home and large basement for roam, and utilize sanitized in-home kennels for overnight and unattended times as well as movement of guests (inside, outside, walks, etc). I currently have full availability outside of school drop-off in the mornings and flexible pick-ups in the afternoon. I spend my free time caring for my own animals and attending online classes and seminars! I have a knack for social cues and when and how to approach. Discipline is and will always be reinforcement based. I have experience with reactive dogs and understand any dog can be reactive in the right setting, so meet and greets are a must! Our personal working dogs are not within the home's boundaries and remain with their flock at all times.
“Nayoma was great! It was our first time leaving our dog with someone other than family. He takes a while to warm up to others but Nayoma was patient with him and he got more comfortable as the day went on. We were happy to get an update and some pictures of him throughout the day. I will definitely use Nayoma again in the future!”
“Excellent day care service. Very good people, nice clean home and yard. Animals are very well cared for. Service providers went above and beyond my expectations. Would definitely recommend and use again.”
“Rex is very easy going and flexible. My dog went right to him without hesitation. She had a great time playing with his dogs and was very tired when she came home. I will use Rex again without hesitation.”
About: I have had cats and dogs my whole life, and they have enriched my life so much. I volunteered at animal shelters, working with dogs of all kinds, and socializing with the cats. I regularly walked dogs and was a dog/house sitter for over a year, then took a brief hiatus while I was working full time and am getting back into dog sitting now that I have a house of my own, and can offer boarding services! I have also had two puppies over my life that I helped raise and take care of into their old age. I am currently working part time, so I have plenty of time to spend loving your critters, and my partner works fully remote so he is available to let dogs in and out while I am gone! We have a large fenced in backyard with lots of room to run and play, plus we love going on walks when we have dogs visiting us. We have two cats, Swiper and Bilbo, who are both familiar with dogs, and can be shy but very friendly. They also have their own hideaway which houses their food and litter that dogs do not have access to in case they need some time to themselves. My mom's dog, Juno, also visits us frequently, and she LOVES having playmates around and gets along with dogs of all sizes and breeds. I make sure to take swift action on any problems that may arise, and communicate frequently in detail. You can rest easy knowing I treat any critter in my care as if they were one of my own, and you will also receive picture updates every day, usually multiple times a day.

“Stephanie did great watching our pup. We needed a sitter last minute and she was quick to respond & help out. She took Harley on a walk and sent us update pics. Harley was exhausted when she got home which is not an easy thing to do, so she must have had fun. We will definitely be using Stephanie again.”
“Rebecca took great care of my dog during a long daytrip for work. She sent photos of him throughout the day and he really seemed to enjoy his day hanging out with her. Ozzy gives his stay five stars!”

About: For several years I owned a Doggy B and B where the dogs were part of my family. There were no cages or crates which the owners really appreciated. They slept in bed with me, jumped and lounged on all the furniture, watched TV, ate plenty of homemade treats, went swimming in the pool and don't forget the car rides to the park and river. Every weekend I would shop for new, safe and tough toys. We celebrated holidays and birthdays with homemade pupcakes, presents and costumes. They also got a "report" card saying how their day was and what they did that day or weekend. There were lots of pictures taken and shared too. Areas and toys were thoroughly inspected each day to ensure a safe and fun playtime. I love pets! All kinds of them. Your pet will get my undivided attention. I bring toys & treats plus send lots of pictures while you're away. That way you can enjoy our pawty too. Since I can't have pets in my home, I'll come to your pet's home. I care for them like they are mine. Give them lots of pets, play with toys inside & outside, walk them on a leash several times a day, watch TV with them & most importantly, share the bed at night. I want your pet to feel comfortable & loved by me.

About: I grew up on a farm, surrounded by animals of all kinds from energetic puppies to senior dogs, barn cats, and even livestock.

“Our stay with Rex was fantastic. He was easy to work with and flexible on times. We appreciated the picture updates during the week. Would definitely recommend as a host.”
“I am so extremely thankful for Kelli and the great care Mickie was given! Absolutely amazing, I will ALWAYS book will Kelli!!! Communication was A++++ and I got messages and pictures throughout our trip, I was so thankful for that! Absolutely the BEST!”
“This is the first time we had ever used Rover and it was a great experience. We received several pictures to see how Layla was doing during her 18 day stay. I highly recommend Katy to care for your dogs. We will be back again!!!”
“My dog had a great time at Becky’s playing with two dogs that were there. She even went on a special family outing with them (with our permission). Becky sent pictures and videos which made our time away extra enjoyable. My dog doesn’t usually eat when she’s away from home but Becky said she had no problem with eating. I attribute that to Becky creating such a comforting, home-like experience for her. I will definitely be booking Becky again!”
“Catherine always does great with our dog! He was nursing a leg injury and had some last minute meds from the vet, and Catherine was good about sending updates and giving him the meds as needed. He came home feeling better than when we dropped him off. I highly recommend her!”

“Thank you for always taking such good care of Gully! He always comes home happy and ready for a long nap. 🐶 thank you for watching him while we went to Florida as well. He gets so excited now when we pack his crate and bin. 😊 I always appreciate the pictures too!”
“My Sophie is high energy and still young dog and she was willing to take the challenge. Sydney was very kind and put my fears to rest. She sent pictures several times a day with updates. She has a large fenced in yard and also took Sophie on walks, just fantastic!”
“Jamie was flexible with drop off/pick up schedule and sent updates during stay. My anxious dog seemed very comfortable with her, thanks again for taking care of Clover!”
