“Cosmo loved his time at what I call Camp Marcy & Company!! He got lots of love and playtime and was relaxed and happy when I picked him up after a stay of several days. It made traveling easier to know he was in such great hands!! Highly recommend!”
“Our dog Tillie had a great time visiting with Jane and Jared! They were very kind and responsive and made us feel very comfortable leaving Tillie for an overnight. We would definitely book again! Thank you Jane and Jared!”
“Suz was wonderful! She really cared about our two Goldens! She took them for walks and allowed them time to play in the yard. We were sent plenty of pictures and updates as to how things were going. We will book with Suz again for sure!!!”
“What an amazing dog care experience with Karma and her family! From the moment I met them, I felt relieved and confident that Ginger and my JRT/Shepherd Mix puppy, Bhageera, would be in safe hands. I was already confident about Ginger, since he is calm and composed. But Bhageera is very energetic and, as a puppy and a working dog, he needs more than just a sitter. Karma and her family completely understood his needs and provided the perfect care while we were on our trip to Isle Royale. Since Isle Royale National Park does not allow pets, we had to find a pet sitter — and we were so lucky we did. As an added bonus, John, Karma’s husband, owns and operates the Isle Royale Queen ferry. What an amazing coincidence and what a wonderful family! Their Aussie Doodle, Max, became Bhageera’s buddy and gave him the stimulation and play he needed. Meanwhile, Ginger was able to relax in a quieter environment. Karma’s kids also helped care for the puppy and made him feel comfortable and loved. Overall, I am beyond happy. This was the perfect combination for our furry family, and we are so grateful for the care they provided while we crossed Lake Superior. We frequently visit the Keweenaw area during the summer and fall, and we will surely be seeking their help during our next visit. I would recommend Karma 100%.”
“Jaylynn and Benjamin were absolutely amazing with our dog! They made him feel like part of the family and he was a happy happy boy playing with their golden retriever and other puppy they were dog sitting for! Their communication was excellent and we really enjoyed getting updates and pics. I will definitely be using their services again in the future.”
“Woody spent the day with Whitney and we picked him up tired and happy. Playing with Walker, another GSP, obviously agreed with him. Whitney will be caring for Woody again as we feel very comfortable leaving him with this Rover host!”

About: My first experience working with animals was at a doggy day care here in Ankeny, and my love for pets grew as I entered high school and worked at local veterinary clinics caring for all the dogs and cats being boarded! Tasks included medication administration, play time, cleaning, and grooming. I have lived with cats for over 6 years and currently have my own fur baby at home!
“Sierra did a great job of taking care of my senior kitties and she left my home in great shape. She was an excellent communicator and would love to have her care for my pets again.”
“Samantha was amazing! Not only is she a sweet person but she kept my anxious attached dog calm while I was out! Very flexible and accommodating when plans changed a bit! Will definitely use her again when we come to the area!”
About: I’ve taken care of my neighbor’s cat every winter from December to March since he was young. I stay with him as long as I can every day — doing my homework with him in my lap, taking naps with him curled up by my feet, and eating dinner while watching him pace at my plate. I love cats so much, so I do my best to make them feel loved and cared for while their parents are away.
“We think Kat did a wonderful job with drop-in visits for our two cats! They are shy but everything worked out fine for all. Kat also kept my plants watered and let us know of any situations with the house since we were gone for a longer period period of time. we really appreciate her going the extra mile for us!”
“She was really good with my cranky old man cat. I knew he would take a while to warm up to her and she followed my advice. If I ever go on a long vacation again, would definitely hire again.”
“Evah was very dependable and the cats seemed to love her. Their disposition when we returned from our trip was very calm. Evah shared photos daily of them both playing and interacting.”
“Karina did a wonderful job checking in on my cat while I was away on vacation. She took care of all my cats needs, was responsive, and sent detailed reports. Would highly recommend.”

“Ashley is amazing! We have a new GSD puppy who’s 10 weeks old, she’s exactly what you expect, full of energy and biting. Ashley watches Bean twice a week while me and my fiancé are at work and unable to be home with her. She does a great job at sending us photos, videos, and keeping us informed on how Bean is doing. We feel great about leaving Bean with her, she really gives us peace of mind that Bean is not only safe but having fun too. P.S. We were the cancelled booking, we booked Ashely the night before the date Bean would’ve been with her and Ashely was more than willing to take Bean for the day on such short notice! Unfortunately she got sick, which happens to the best of us 😅”
“Thank you for taking such great care of Cooper & Mo! I was thrilled that they settled in so quickly and hung out with your crew. It was great peace of mind to know they were in loving care all day.”
“Karma's family has been caring for my terrier mix, Ruby while I'm at work. Ruby's tail is wagging when we arrive and she comes home happy and tired. Very good care, beautiful property and friendly dog, too!”

“We were in Houghton to visit Isle Royale. The issue was we were traveling in our RV with our 3-year-old Labrador and we didn't want to leave him alone for such a long day. We were lucky enough to find Rylie and I really can't say enough good things about her. She came over three times throughout the day to let our dog out, walk him, and spent time with him. Each time she sent us several new pictures and communicated wonderfully throughout the day. She allowed us to enjoy the day and not have to stress over our dog being watched and taking care of. If we're ever back in Houghton we will definitely use Rylie again!”
About: I have owned dogs my whole life and more recently cats. I have experience with multiple breeds of dogs, both rescue and bread dogs, and different types of harnesses. I have been dog sitting and walking for six years now for varying amounts of time. I am a college student so my schedule is dependent on my classes and my on-campus job, but I can make my schedule fit around any pet care! needs. I have two dogs of my own so I would be coming to the client's house to care for their pet. For specific rules and training, I would discuss a plan with the owners as to be consistent.
About: My Family and I have had dogs in the family for years and I have always had a big role in taking care of them from baths to playtime and food. In 2020 we then started raising puppies. I have helped from the birthing to medication and playtime, overcoming new obstacles and fears, and potty training. I have dog sat a bit and have done well making sure they got exercise, food, and medication. I do not have much experience with watching cats but love playing with my Aunt's who breeds and raises kittens. I currently go to college classes but have a fairly flexible schedule. In the summer aside from a few trips I have nothing going on! I feed them twice a day unless specified, give baths once every other week and as needed. If they don't seem to be enjoying an activity changing it or making the situation better. Trust and respect are very important. The wishes of the owners or parents will be followed and hope to give your pet the best care while you are away
About: I rescued our first dog, Trigger, in 2012 with my husband. He came from an abusive and neglected household. He lived his best life with us, and I still miss him terribly. We then rescued our current dog, Zeus, in 2020. He is almost 5. I will make sure your pet gets all the attention and love they deserve! I work during the school year (8-3), but am off during the summer. I would be able to come after 3:00 if need be during the school year. I have a fenced in yard, and one dog that can be put in his room or basement if need be while watching another animal.
About: My dedication and proficiency in learning new skills has led to caring for various unique animals and gaining hands-on knowledge. I am willing to care for any animals you need, just reach out! I have experience with dogs, cats, rats, bunnies, guinea pigs, snakes, geckos, fish, house birds, chickens, turkeys, ducks, pigs, cows, and sheep of various ages. I also have cared for dogs/cats that are blind, deaf, seizure prone and require medication (oral/injectable). I'm proficient in first aid basics for dogs and cats as well. I'm self-motivated and reliable, taking care of my family's pets from a young age and gaining endless experience since including taking care of countless neighbor's animals while growing up and continuing to do so. In addition to pet sitting, I have volunteered at various rescues and have fostered multiple cats, including a litter of five 4 week old kittens. Since fall 2019, I have been working with mushing kennels ranging from 10-70 dogs; through hard work and consistency, I became entrusted to care for and train dogs at these kennels, participating in multiple mushing races. I have assisted numerous mushers with their dogs at events and have learned a lot from them, along with veterinarians that attend. I'm practiced in raising multiple litters and took in a runt puppy temporarily when he required extra attention and bottle feeding. These experiences also resulted in me befriending a service dog trainer, who has helped me learn how to apply different training techniques to both dogs and cats. Now I have a sled dog of my own who has been a joy and given me insight into training my own dog for various sports plus service dog public access and tasks. Thanks for reading this glimpse into my experiences taking exceptional care of animals. I look forward to continuing to learn more and help others. I always take the opportunity to get to know each animal individually, tending to bond with them quickly. I would love to get to know you and your pets if you give me the chance! I currently work 4-5 days a week with around 8-10 hour shifts, but am able to leave mid-shift for a potty break and sometimes can do some work from home as well. I also live with my partner and sister who both have lots of similar experience with caring for animals and are happy to step in and help out as well. Many clients meet them and love that their pets get extra attention, often choosing to hire them for jobs when I'm unavailable. When caring for client's pets, my first priority is safety. I make sure my client and I have contact information for each other and any additional contacts for emergencies. I make note of their preferred veterinarian and any concerns they might have. I also prefer a meet and greet to get to know each other and the animal(s). Then I have the owner walk me through their care routine and ask questions. Once I know the tasks for the job, I see if there is anything else I can do to make my client feel more comfortable. This includes providing frequent updates with pictures, and anything else needed for them to know their pet(s) are in good hands. I take constructive criticism well and look forward to providing the best services I can!
About: I have experience taking care of dogs. I will take your pups on walks, feed them, play with them, entertain them, and also provide some housekeeping as well! I am pretty flexible on times and days that you need me! Let me know and I can try my best to make anything work for you! I can care for your pets in your home any way that you would like. I can get used to dogs who take a little bit to warm up and learn the ways of their personalities.
About: Hi, I'm JaLynn! I offer pet sitting services including drop in visits, dog walking, bathing and in-home dog boarding. I grew up with dogs, cats, chickens, horses, and more so your pets will fit right in! I'm also a SAHM to a sweet 1 yr old girl, and a gentle Golden Retriever named Yetti who loves company. We live in the country with a large fenced in backyard where your pets can safely play and get plenty of exercise. My aim is to be a dependable and helpful resource for your family to make your travels a little less stressful. I am a Stay at home mom so my schedule is pretty flexible during the day for daycare. My husband also works from home so typically if I'm not home, he is! I generally am most free in the mornings and evenings for drop ins. I have a large fenced in backyard and a doggy door so your pet will be able to play as much as they desire. I also have a friendly golden retriever who loves company! I do have a 1 yr old daughter so all in home stays will need to be experienced and friendly with kids.
