“Jayne and her family were great. They cared for our puppy for 5 days while we were on vacation. He had a great time playing with their dogs. Jayne sent video and picture updates every day. I felt very comfortable leaving our puppy with them, you could tell they liked him and cared for him well. Thank you Jayne & family.”
“My dogs didn’t want to come home. Great yard, clean. Great family very kind, friendly. My dogs will stay here when needed. There dogs are friendly Harley is Freddie’s best friend.”
“Christina B is an absolute Rockstar hero. She and her family helped my boy and I when in a tough spot. They truly extend themselves around those that come into their care. I picked him up and though he was excited to see me I know they made their home his too. I cannot express enough gratitude for her professionalism and care.”
“Larysa was so kind, patient, attentive to my pet. She and her husband are both caring people, have a clean, calm home, and I felt completely comfortable leaving my dog with them and their dog. I will book again with her.”
“Rachel and her family did great with my little one. She updated me every day with pictures and videos and a complete report of each day. They welcome Coco as one more of their family and he received lot of attention and care during the stay. I totally recommend them and definitely I will book again with her.”
“Justin took my golden retriever over night and was super accommodating to my last minute booking. Communicated well. Will definitely be using again when we travel through Sioux Falls!”
“We were very happy with Melissa taking care of our dog, Charlie. Melissa sent photos and updates every day. We would definitely use Melissa again and recommend her.”
“Our Stevie was treated very well with Nichole and her family. She was very accommodating even though it was a holiday week. We appreciated the photos and that she even took our dog out for pup cups. We would definitely recommend and use again.”
“Melissa‘s kindness, sincerity, and genuine warmth shine through from the moment you meet her. Her home has that same welcoming energy –comfortable safe and full of thoughtful touches. The meat-and-greet Melissa offered before the stay was generous and reassuring, and Copper, her pup, was the perfect host - basically the mayor of hospitality town! He welcomed Peanut like an old friend and immediately showed her around. Melissa was flexible, thoughtful, and attentive, and she sent photos and videos throughout Peanut’s stay that absolutely made my day. Peanut came home ready for a nap, content, and clearly well-cared for - the Holy Trinity of a perfect pup vacation! Copper even taught Peanut how to go down the stairs, which definitely deserves its own merit badge. I am grateful for people like Melissa who create a safe, honest, and welcoming space for visiting pups. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful, trustworthy, and genuinely caring home for their dog. You almost want to ask if she offers human boarding too. Melissa is agem – five stars, many tail wags, and a standing ovation from Peanut.”
“We left our dog and cat for about 4 days for a vacation out of town, and when we got back, they seemed to miss the sitter more than they missed us. 5 Stars! We received daily updates about their care along with photos of our babies. Ashley was wonderful caring for them, giving us peace of mind while we enjoyed our vacation. We are already considering booking again for our next trip!”
“Tracy was great to work with, very compassionate about her duty as a sitter and made Hank feel loved and appreciated!! I also appreciated that she was understanding about me being late for pickup as I am just getting settled into a new environment. I hope and look forward to using her again in the future!! Her darling Stella who is as well a Yorkie was just a cute girl. We loved Tracy!”
“My dog has stayed with Angie multiple times now and loves it! Staying with Angie feels like going to Disney for him :) He loves all of the room to run around and has made friends with her dogs. He can't wait for his next stay!”
“Our puppy had a great time and it was nice knowing he was in a loving home while we were busy with work. 100% recommend Mikayla and Jerad if you need someone to watch your fur baby.”

“Olivia was awesome! She took such great care of our cat while we were away and gave us total peace of mind. Super reliable, really friendly, and great at sending updates and pics so we always knew everything was good at home. Would 100% book Olivia again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great sitter!”
“They were super kind and approachable. We knew within a couple of minutes of meeting them that our kitties were in good hands. They kept us updated with how things were going and sent many pictures. We could see along the way that they didn't just do the basics for care, but also interacted with them as if they were there own pets. It was a great experience and we had no worries whatsoever.”
About: I have had dogs my entire adult life, up to 7 at one time, including a husky. I now only have 1, since I had to move and left the rest with my old roommate (some were his anyway, and I took the one that had chosen me as his human). Every dog I've ever had was properly trained to at least sit on command - with or without a treat. When I had the 7, I could have the pack surround me, and call them one by one for their treat, and only the one called would reach. People have watched my dog's behavior out in public and have aske if I could train their dogs! I have no formal training for dog training, but I did grow up watching Caesar on Animal Planet, and implemented his behavior training techniques with all of my own dogs when they were puppies, or from the time I accepted them in as strays. I have cared for others pets in the past, but not in a professional capacity. I sat for a friend of mine at her house, caring for 3 dogs and a cat. I fed the cat in the morning and at night and cleaned her litter box once a day. The dogs got fed on the same schedule, and spent the majority of the day outside in the fenced back yard unless it was raining. I went outside and threw balls and sticks for them a few times each day, for about an hour or so each time. I currently do not have a job, so I am available full time, any day or time. I have my own dog who prefers to not let me out of his sight, and will cry if I leave him at home alone, so getting a traditional job while living in an apartment is out of the question. With that said, I would need to bring him with me. He is going on 10 years old, and has never met a dog or person he didn't love. I am glad to bring him for a meet and greet before any commitments are made. Every dog has a way to let you know they need something. My dog prefers to attempt cuddles when he needs anything, leaving me playing a guessing game until I get it right. He gets super excited when I get it right! As a senior dog, I leave his food out 24/7, and check it in the mornings when I get up and at night when I go to bed to make sure it's not empty. If I notice that it's empty at any point during the day, I simply refill it. Same with his water. His potty schedule is pretty much the same - first thing in the morning, any time he asks during the day, and then one last trip out at bedtime. I know not every dog can follow this schedule, but I have also had dogs who needed me to set alarms to take them out every hour or two, until they were properly house trained. All I need from you is your dogs schedule.
About: I haven't had many cats in my own home, but volunteering at the Humane Society has taught me a lot about caring for cats with different personalities and needs. I understand that cats can take time to warm up, and I’m happy to let them come to me on their own terms. I’ll make sure your cat receives plenty of attention, fresh food and water, a clean litter box, and care that follows their normal routine.
About: I've grown up with animals my whole life and just recently volunteered at the humane society walking dogs! I also love working with cats and love to be playful with all kinds of animals!

I'm a patient and love working with a variety of animals of all levels of energy. I love to provide walks and whatever is needed for you pet.

I have always thrived working in an environment where I can build relationships with the customers and now, my furry friends!

We recently brought a Frenchton into our family, her name is Dolly and she has just been the best addition. But with a puppy I know first hand how often they need your attention. I have grown up around multiple breeds, sizes of dogs and have always had a couple dogs in our home. In high school and early college years I volunteered often at the local humane society and took the dogs on walks. I am available during the weekdays to let your puppers out for bathroom breaks, multiple times a day if needed (totally understand how often some young dogs need to go outside, haha!). With my work from home schedule, I am able to be flexible to what is needed for your pet on a day-to-day basis. I take my Dolly on daily walks and she LOVES it, so if you are looking for a local dog walker, I am more than willing to help fulfill that need for your furry friend. I know this is a new endeavor for me but with my personal experience with dogs and cats but also my extensive customer service experience. I will ensure to keep your pet and your family happy with my services. Thank you, hope to talk soon!

“Oliver loved being at Lauren and Corey’s house. They took great care of him and made our first experience with Rover wonderful. We will definitely be contacting them again when we need care for him in the future.”
About: I work remotely so I’m home most of the day☺️ This allows me to give dogs plenty of attention, care, and supervision throughout the day! My husband and I are both dog lovers and have a dog of our own, Carter, a 9 y.o. black lab/blue heeler mix. She’s very friendly, easygoing, and gets along great with other dogs🐶 We don’t have kids, so our home is calm and quiet, and the dogs get lots of attention🥰 They’re welcome on the furniture if that’s what they’re used to at home, and we have a large fenced yard where they can safely run and play. We also live in a safe, dog-friendly neighborhood that’s perfect for regular walks! I’ll treat your pup like part of the family and do my BEST to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re here🥰 Feel free to reach out with any questions about availability or how boarding/daycare works, I’m always happy to help!☺️ Because I work remotely, I’m home most of the day and able to give dogs lots of attention🥰 Walks and outdoor time are already a regular part of my day, so caring for dogs fits naturally into my routine I only take up to 2 dogs per day to keep things calm, comfortable, and low-stress for everyone. I treat every dog like family and work from home, so they get plenty of attention and supervision! My home is clean, pet-friendly, with a large fenced yard for safe playtime, and I always follow each dog’s routine to help them feel at ease🙂
About: Hi! My name is Melissa and I'm so happy to be here! I have 15 years of experience caring for and walking my own dogs, and sitting for friends and family. I know the importance of getting some exercise in for your fur friend, and how challenging it can be to find the time some days! So I am here to help, let me take care of that task for you! I enjoy walking and being outdoors and I'd love to have your pup accompany me! I also own my own home with a fully fenced in backyard, and I work full time from home, so if you need boarding or daycare services, my home would be great for you! I have two pups of my own that absolutely love other dogs, so if you are ok with that, we'd love to care for and keep your pup with us, too! I work from home full time, so it’s easy to attend to my pups (and yours!) during the workday. I can make a lunch hour walk or drop work easily. And afternoons and evenings are pretty open! I have a fully fenced in yard and I am able to let my dogs out as often as they need, and they would be perfect companions for your pups when staying here as well
“Anna and her family are great! We used her daycare services while we had some work being done at our house and she was super flexible when we needed to adjust days last minute. Anna takes such good care of our pup, I highly recommend her!”
“Christina was amazing with our boy Keno. He has tons of fluffy fur and she took the time to brush him while he was there. She marked everything down in the app and kept me updated throughout the day. He will definitely return to her house again! Thank you so much Christina?”
“Josie was exceptional. Her communication was outstanding and her compassion was just as great. She sent multiple updates throughout the day, which really shows how much she cares for others' fur babies. I recieved lots of candid, sweet photos too. I could tell Honey was in good hands and truly enjoyed her time away. Josie paid close attention to routines and details, and was so attentive to Honey while she was in her care. I couldn't have asked for a better last-minute sitter. She not only made me feel secure in my decision but also made Honey feel safe and at home. I'm sure she'll sleep hard tonight after today's adventures. I have nothing but good things to say about Josie and will definitely be booking with her again in the future! 🩷”
“Shayla did a great job with Copper! My dog is very timid and anxious with new places & people, and she was very patient with him and understanding. She sent updated and pics of him throughout the day to update me on how he was doing!”

About: Hi everyone - I was a mom to older English Bulldogs who have recently passed and understand the need for a sitter at times. I used to use a dog sitter myself during the day and understand how hard it can be to get home sometimes! Now that my doggos are no longer with me, I would love to help you out. I work from home so can accept daycare or overnight boarding at my place. I live in a safe neighborhood and have a fenced in backyard for all of the potty breaks and I can also bring them on short walks if requested. I live in a zero-entry, one-level home with no steps which is great for pets with bad joints.
“When we pulled up to Jordon’s house for day care, Sylbie drug me up to the door. Pulled me right up there. She was excited for the day ahead. Thank you to Jordon and her family for the excellent care for our pet!!!”
“Emily and her pups were amazing sitters for our boy Sonoma today! We were nervous about leaving him with someone for the first time but after chatting with Emily and meeting her and her 2 dogs for a few minutes the day before the planned sitting…we were totally confident that he was in good hands. Emily is such a kind hearted person with a genuine love for dogs and it shows in her care for her own. Sonoma immediately warmed up to her and the 3 puppies were able to have a great time together. She was considerate of our routine/habits and sent pictures all day long, which we were so thankful to have! Sonoma didn’t want to leave Emily’s house and even sat in protest on her porch. We would absolutely love/plan to use Emily again and would recommend her to anyone looking for fantastic care in Paradise!”

Working from home makes pet care easy for me to fit in, since I can handle walks, feeding, and playtime during breaks while still giving the pets constant supervision without disrupting my work.

Dogs have the freedom to enjoy the backyard throughout their stay, giving them space to play, explore, and get some fresh air. I’m also able to provide walks, potty breaks, and plenty of attention to help them feel comfortable and at home. I’m flexible and always prioritize clear communication with owners to ensure their pets receive the care they need.

I have grown up around multiple breeds, sizes of dogs and have always had a couple dogs in our home. In high school and early college years I volunteered often at the local humane society and took the dogs on walks. I am available during the weekdays to let your puppers out for bathroom breaks, multiple times a day if needed (totally understand how often some young dogs need to go outside, haha!). With my work from home schedule, I am able to be flexible to what is needed for your pet on a day-to-day basis. I take my Dolly on daily walks and she LOVES it, so if you are looking for a local dog walker, I am more than willing to help fulfill that need for your furry friend. I know this is a new endeavor for me but with my personal experience with dogs and cats but also my extensive customer service experience. I will ensure to keep your pet and your family happy with my services. Thank you, hope to talk soon! With my work from home schedule, I am available and flexible **Monday - Friday beginning at 9AM - 4:30PM**. Services during the week will include bathroom breaks, feedings, scheduled medications, dog walking, light play outside or inside are available. I am available to come ever 3-4 hours if needed during the day. Weekend: If interested I am available to pet sit on the weekends. Inquire with me personally about this, thank you! I will be doing all of the caring for your pet in your home. -Close attention to owner instructions -Physical strength and stamina -House and pet sitting experience -Trusted mom, involved in the community, respectful of all spaces
