“I so appreciate how great Michelle and her family was with our fur babies. The pictures she shared and the reassuring texts were so comforting. The « kids » had a wonderful time with her.”

“Amy is very pleasant and responded in a timely manner to messages. Rori was well taken care of and in good spirits when we picked her up. I would be very comfortable leaving her with Amy and Trevor again.”
“Linsey was amazing!!! Able to help us out super last minute and really went above and beyond! Sent us all the pictures we wanted and even walked out pup in negative temps to make sure he got the exercise he wanted! Couldn’t have asked for a better Rover”

“Karrisa sent multiple pictures and videos daily and was in communication with us for our whole trip. Since this was the first time we’ve ever left our puppy, this was extremely reassuring and thoughtful of her. She has such a sweet dog and our dogs quickly became good friends. In fact, our pup literally did not want to leave. He felt like he was at home!”

“We booked with Lezlie a last minute 3 days board sitting for our dog Pete. She was supper accommodating and took great care of Pete. We appreciate all the pictures and how we were kept informed about his day. We can tell he had a great time! And would love to rebook with her next time.”

About: I have grown up with dogs all my life and currently have 3 dogs Chelsea, Lucy and olive. I am a huge dog lover and would own 100 if I could. I do work full time. I am available to board animals on most weekends. I am also available to walk or do drop ins daily after 330 during school and 230 during summers. I do not have a fenced in yard. Yet. I do plan on getting it fenced in either this summer or the next. I can crate animals as well. I do have 3 of my own dogs that I have trained and walk most days.
About: Work from home empty nest Mom. I have a sweet, 9 year old bichon shihtzu that is spoiled rotten 🙂. My kids are at college and come visit on the weekends. I have a flexible schedule during the day and I love to play and walk my dog multiple times a day. I’ve been around dogs my entire life, and I offer a fenced in yard, plenty of play time and snuggles! I’m happy to send pictures throughout the day if you want. My goal is to make them feel as comfortable as possible. I work from home with a flexible schedule during the week. My weekends are mostly home too. I do occasional zoom calls and pretty regular phone calls, so I do need a pretty quiet office space. I usually do walks in the morning and at 4/5pm. Backyard time around lunch time and chill time after 7/8. My dog and I have a calm, easy going manner. I have a fenced in yard and a cute fur baby to keep your pup company. I have extra bedrooms if your dog needs to be in a crate or kennel.

About: Hello! My name is Grace and I’ve been a dog owner since I was 7 years old! I often care for pets belonging to my family and friends along with my own. I’ve spent time training and showing dogs in competitive events. I am currently working from home part time, so I have all the flexibility and undivided attention to provide the best care for your pet! When you choose to board your dog with me, they will have their own area! I like to regularly check in on your pet to assure they’re safe, and take them for frequent bathroom breaks!

“BJ kept our boys calm by visiting them quietly to replace food, water, and clean litter boxes. I will request her in the future anytime we have a need to go away without Jack and Boone. Thanks for feeding those fish in the backyard too.”

“We would HIGHLY recommend Rikki for your pet sitting needs! This was the very first time we had left our 2 rescue cats for more than a single night and we were super nervous especially since they are used to having someone home with them full-time. Rikki did a great job of taking care of all our girls' needs while we were away for a 4-day trip. She stayed overnight and left everything in our home clean and orderly. We even had a stray cat that we recently started looking after that she was more than happy to look after as well. We will for sure use Rikki in the future and are super grateful for the peace of mind she gave us to truly enjoy our vacation!”


“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.”

“Trudy Is awesome! We were nervous to leave our cat at first as she was young and had a bit of social anxiety, but Trudy eased all our fears. Very engaged and adaptive to pets needs and owner requests. Would highly recommend Trudy for any pet needs you have!”

About: My significant other and I live in a house with 3 dogs. We take our dogs (who are more like our kids)on a walk in our neighborhood or fenced in backyard and let them run around at least twice a day! Our dogs are spoiled and loved as they should be! We play ball and snuggle and they sleep with us too:) We'd love to love your pet while you're away! I work part time at WagZone dog day care so I have a lot of free time for my own pups. I love walks, hikes on our land outside of time or just fetch time in the yard. Fenced in yard allows dogs to run freely all day with a dog door to a sheltered garage. My dogs get along with all other souls.
About: Growing up on a farm, there were always plenty of animals that need love. Big ones and small ones. I've had small dogs like a dachshund and as large as a Doberman. I also have a special place in my heart for kitties. I am currently working part-time. My hours are generally 10-2, but I must be present for our noon meeting. I am working on starting to live a healthier life, I'd love to add fuzzy friends in the process! I would love to know all the details of your pets! Their favorite treats, toys, games.. all of it! I'm happy to let them play in the yard, go on a walk or even take them on an adventure! My boys are beyond spoiled and they know it. Some people go to the store and never leave without something for their child... that's me, except it's for the kitties!
About: I’ve taken care of a variety of dogs from the time I was 8 to present. I own big dogs and love making them happy. I’ve taken care of my neighbors dogs, friends and family to include feeding, walking, bathing and dropping in on their pets from time to time. I work full-time but have a flexible schedule to drop-In on pets and/or walk your furry loved ones. I enjoy the outdoors and long walks and would love the company of a furry friend. Also, what animal doesn’t love stretching their legs and enjoying the outdoors. That’s my goal, let them get some exercise in this crazy busy world. Currently, I’m in the middle of a move so I would like to stick to walking and drop-in care for dogs. Hoping to have a fenced in back yard when house closes.

“Alecia was incredibly caring, organized, and very attentive with my cats.🐱 Every day she kept me informed about how everything was at home and also sent me photos of them, which made me feel very calm and reassured during my time away. She not only took care of them and administered their medication, but also made sure their water bowls were always clean. She went above and beyond by taking extra time to clean the litter boxes, clean up vomit, sweep, and keep the mat tidy. These are the kinds of details that truly make a difference.✨️ She played with them, spoiled them, and cared for them with so much love and dedication. Alecia is very kind, respectful, and warm in her communication, which builds even more trust. 🌸 Without a doubt, I highly recommend her for taking care of your furry loved ones.🐾 It’s very comforting to know that someone like her exists someone who can care for your pets as if you were there yourself. It’s clear that she truly loves what she does, and her work is simply outstanding ✨️.”

About: As far back as I can remember, my family always had at least one dog/cat, each one of them holding a special place in my heart. I, now, am a proud dog parent of two Blue Heelers, Izzy and Brutus. I love every kind of dog and cat. I have experience with elder dog care and puppy care. I have a job where I work Sunday, Monday, and Wednesday. All 12 hour days. So, I would be completely booked up on those days. The other days I would be incredibly happy to spend time with your little loved one! I would make sure to have clear and open conversations with you about your animals throughout the day/night. I can give updates on when they go to the bathroom. I can, also, send pictures of them.

About: I've been lucky enough to have a dog in my life since I was young. I have raised many puppies of different breeds and I have experience with various personalities. I can take your dog for a nice walk or check on them and let them out into the yard. I've cared for friends' and families' and neighbors' dogs for 15 years. The past 4 years I did conservation detection work with my pups and now I am currently working as a dog trainer in Sioux Falls. I specialize in scent work, cooperative care, and tailoring enrichment to the individual dog. I'm currently working part time so I have plenty of free time to take your dogs out exploring and adventuring. I can take them on shorter or longer walks depending on what you need. I follow any guidelines left by the dogs' person to take care of them and keep them on a routine so they are as stress free and safe as possible.

About: Growing up on a farm, I have had dogs, cats, and all kinds of livestock. Observing animal behavior is key in knowing that an animal is happy and comfortable in their environment. I also have an animal science degree that has given me more insight to general health and diet. I work here on our farm. So my schedule is very flexible and can be adjusted to your pets routine and care. Going for walks or getting outdoors is an easy activity living on an acreage. We have multiple dog beds and allow pets on the furniture. We also have crates available if your pet needs some quiet time or if that is something they are used to.

About: Growing up, I’ve always loved and cared for dogs. Now that I have my own, I understand the feeling of having someone care for them the way you do. I work a full-time job from Monday to Thursday, and sometimes I have mandatory Fridays. However, I’m more than happy to assist on weekends or weekdays after 5 PM, and I’m also available on Fridays if my work schedule allows. I reside in an apartment, but I thoroughly enjoy taking them for daily walks and visits to the dog park, every day, other day, depending on my schedule.

About: Hello, My name is Taylor and I love dogs and have grown up with them my entire life. I am comfortable caring for them in your home or bringing them to mine. I enjoy walking and helping with training while dog sitting. I am comfortable with small and larger dogs breeds as I grew up with cocker spaniels and labs. I couldn't resist anymore and got my own dog in August! He is a very spoiled toy Australian shepherd. I would love to share my love for dogs with your pet while dog sitting and caring for your pet. I have volunteered at a local dog shelter for the past two years and have lots of experience working with many different breeds, ages and types of dogs. If you have any questions or are interested in working with me please feel free to message me. My schedule is pretty flexible and I am open to working around your schedule as well.
