“Jill was absolutely marvelous with our 2 dogs. It was like they were on their own vacation while we were on ours. She was so caring and attentive to their different needs. Our border collie needed a lot of outside time, while our little elder dog was happier inside on their chair in the sun. He could look out the window and see the outside while being comfy inside. She went above and beyond on fixing their meals (more than just kibble). She sent photos and detailed updates about how they were doing, so I didn't worry once about them even though we were gone a week. Also, this was a last minute request and she rearranged her schedule so she could keep the dogs. HIGHLY recommend!”

“Joy was great! She watched our pups for a week and we received photos, videos and updates regularly. We appreciate how well she cared for our dogs. I would highly recommend.”

“Amber was absolutely amazing with our girl!! She had the perfect set up and I knew from the moment I met her, our pup was going to be very well loved and cared for. She sent me pictures the whole weekend! I highly recommend her!”

About: Lifelong animal experience – I’ve cared for animals my entire life, not just as a job but as a way of life. • Real dog-owner perspective – With 2 dogs of my own, I understand routines, energy levels, training reinforcement, and emotional needs. • Calm, patient care – Great for shy, anxious, senior, or high-energy dogs who need consistency and understanding. • Individualized attention – I don’t do “one-size-fits-all” care. Walks, play, feeding, and downtime are tailored to your dog. • Trust & reliability – I show up on time, follow instructions closely, and communicate clearly so you can relax while you’re away. • Home-style love – Your dog is treated like family, not a booking. Hi! I’m Shelbie, a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for dogs and cats of all personalities. I live in a peaceful rural area with plenty of space for play, walks, and safe adventures. Your furry friend will get the love, attention, and care they deserve while you’re away! Dog Boarding (In My Home – Female Dogs Only) For the safety and comfort of all pets in my care, I only board female dogs. My Australian Shepherd has a strong personality, and keeping our home harmonious means I cannot accept male dogs. Female pups are always welcome, and they’ll receive lots of love, playtime, and cuddles in a safe, home environment. I work full-time from 8–5, but I’m happy to stop by during my lunch break for local drop-ins to take your sweet guy or girl out for a potty break, walk, or some love. I’m available after 5 PM, all day on Wednesdays, and all weekends. I’m reliable, flexible, and always happy to work with your pet’s routine whenever possible. I care for pets with patience, consistency, and lots of love—whether in my home or yours. While I don’t have a yard yet, I live close to a dog park and provide plenty of walks, playtime, and mental stimulation to keep dogs happy and exercised. I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, play, and downtime. Safety and comfort always come first, and I make sure pets get individual attention, affection, and enrichment. In your home, I respect your space while ensuring your pet feels secure and relaxed in their familiar environment. I’m attentive, reliable, and treat every pet as if they were my own.

About: We are empty nesters after losing our last dog to cancer. We are looking to fill that void but don’t want to commit to a permanent dog. Smaller dogs is what we preferred in our home. My daughter and daughter-in-law own a large dog boarding center up in Minot, ND. When our 5 kids come home all the grand dogs come with them. Thru our marriage years our family always had dogs and they all had a great life. Marilyne and Albert are retired and are home all day. We will be home to take care of the dogs. We have plenty of time to cuddle with the dogs. We have a clean and organized home with vinyl planking flooring. The dog will not be running lose and will be on a leased to go potty. We like to go for walks and take a ride on the golf cart.
“Haylee was amazing with Darla. She was our first pet sitter on a 3 week long summer vacation. This is the first time we are traveling with our little Darla, and the first time to leave her with a pet sitter. That being said, we have to say, that Haylee absolutely put our minds at ease from the very beginning when we had our first video chat with her. After meeting her in person, we fell in love. She was super accommodating when our plans changed and had no issues with the possibility of changing from a doggy day care to a over night sleep over. Thank you again Haylee. We plan to call Haylee again the next time we are in MN. =)”

“Joy did an amazing job with Shadow. She really came in a pinch to help me. Friendly environment and always felt safe leaving him there. He got plenty of exercise and some days didnt want to leave. 10/10 would recommend!”

“We are so happy we found Jocelyn! Nala had a blast with Jocelyn and her fur crew! She shared several updates and pics throught the day. This was our first time using Rover with Nala bc she is very timid but she warmed up and fit right in. We'll definitely be booking again if we're in Myrtle. We came to visit and had to bring her at the last minute. Thank you so much, Jocelyn!”

About: I have over 8 years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I’m patient, attentive, and treat every pet like my own. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and providing extra care for puppies and senior dogs. I am comfortable with all dogs. What sets me apart is how much I truly care about each pet’s comfort and routine. With 8 years of experience, I’m confident handling different personalities, from energetic puppies to older dogs needing extra patience and attention I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment where pets feel comfortable and cared for. I have a big yard and always supervise outdoor time. I follow all owner instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, and routines. I can crate if needed and make sure every pet gets attention, exercise, and a stress-free experience.
About: I have had at least one dog to take care of since I was 10 years old, and my extended family has always had numerous additional dogs. I feed, give water to, and entertain multiple dogs, of multiple sizes, on a daily basis. I have been responsible for a variety of breeds, as well as both indoor dogs and outdoor farm dogs. Raising sheep and working on horse/cattle farms throughout my middle and high school years has taught me how to care for all kinds of animals, big and small. I am currently waiting to ship out for Navy boot camp, so my schedule is very flexible and I’m available most days of the week. If overnight care is needed, my roommates are able to look after my dogs, which allows me to stay with pets for extended periods when required. I care for pets based on what they need most. Sometimes that means simply being there to keep them company, letting them out, feeding them, and spending time playing or relaxing with them. Other times it can mean giving a little extra attention and monitoring for pets who need more care.
About: I'm a teacher and an animal lover! I'm great at caring for others. 😄 We have two friendly cats and would love to host some dogs. I'm available most weekends and all summer. I'm available to board your pet most weekends! You can always reach out even if my schedule says not available. Those that have boarded with us love that their pet was clean, relaxed and well cared for. My kids love animals and your pet will be given a lot of attention. We have two cats that we love dearly. Our animals are part of our family. We hope to meet a few nice families that want their pets to get some extra attention in evenings or weekends.
About: Hi! I’m Madison, a lifelong dog lover with over 10 years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and energy levels. I grew up with several different breeds and I’m confident handling dogs with all kinds of personalities — from shy seniors to high-energy puppies. What makes me different? I’m comfortable administering medications and recognizing signs of stress or discomfort. I also treat every dog like my own — with patience, joy, and tons of belly rubs. I believe walks should be safe, stimulating, and full of tail wags! Whether your pup needs a short potty break, a jog around the block, or just a new friend to hang out with, I’m here to help. Why Clients Love Me: • Always punctual and reliable • Updates with photos and fun notes after every walk • Flexible scheduling and last-minute availability • Training is also another option I like to throw out there With my job I’m also in Alexandria area often every week as well! Let’s get your dog’s tail wagging — I’d love to meet your furry friend/family member! I clean house’s, so my schedule is almost the same everyday unless clients need to move cleanings around. I’m typically off before 4pm everyday and some days earlier. I have an almost 3 year old dog that I’ve had since he was born. I had 2 litters of puppies so I’ve had experience in training 15 puppies! He is my pride and joy. He is very spoiled and loves to play ball. I would treat your dog as if it were my own. I have a huge heart & love to be around dogs of all sizes!
