“Natalie was extremely responsive, took exceptional care of our dog, gave him lots of love, and gave us regular updates. Thank you so much! We will definitely reach out again when we need help!”
“Kajae and Emily were excellent hosts for Murphy! Emily sent lots of photos and communication to keep me in the loop with how Murphy was doing during her stay, and she returned home a very happy pup! Will definitely be booking future stays with Kajae and Emily!”
“Sara has a very nice indoor/outdoor area for the dogs. The outdoor area is fenced in with plenty of room for dogs to run. Sara was very responsive to texts and even sent pictures and videos of Ozzy. Ozzy will definitely be coming back for a visit soon!”
“Andrea was great with Zero. She sent many pictures throughout his stay of him being included in their family. He always looked happy and came back tired. We will definitely rebook for future trips.”
“Sydney was an excellent dog sitter. Bandit had a good time and didn’t want to leave. She gave us a cute report card. I highly recommend her. The accommodations were a great setup for dogs.”
“Mikaela was wonderful hosting our pup. She was excellent at coordinating drop off and pick up. I really appreciate the pictures and updates she sent to us. Our dog was always excited to go back over and they welcomed him warmly into their home.”
“Rene is great and my dog King loves her. Apparently he sneaked out under a small rabbit hole - not her fault cuz King tends to dig and look for where he can escape. He returned without problem and I will always continue to use Rene as my doggy sitter. She takes great care of him!!”
“Millie had another great stay with Jon and Jessica! They took extra care of her with a recent leg injury and we were able to relax knowing she was in good hands! She’s excited to come back again soon!”
“We’ve used Kristi a couple of times when we were out of town for family vacations. She is very friendly and was so easy to work with. As long as she is available, she will be the only sitter we will use!!!”
“Crystal was great to work with. She was friendly and responsive and sent updates about how my dogs were doing. She was also kind and flexible when the weather was bad, and we asked to shift the drop-off times.”
“Karlee was so patient with my nervous kitty! It was such a relief knowing he was somewhere safe, even if nervous. She gave him the affection/ pets he loves at his level of comfort. He got to be a bit spicy at the end of his visit, but that had nothing to do with her care. Thank you so much for watching him! The daily updates were so reassuring for me!”
“Words can’t describe how much my husband & I are satisfied with choosing Kelsey to watch our little Roxiie while we were on vacation . She’s very fast at replying , sent us pictures every day of our puppy but most of all bonded & cared for Roxiie like if she was part of her family. She is very kind & cares a lot !!! This was our first time having someone take care of our puppy & thankfully we were blessed with an amazing person to take care of her. She is DEFINITELY our 1st choice from now on! Thank you again so much Kelsey . ❤️”
“Amy provided an excellent experience for my dog! He was clearly well cared for and happy when I picked him up, Amy sent pictures/updates as promised every day. Will definitely ask for Amy again!”
“Lauren was super amazing with my fur babies!!!!! Clean environment, loving family to ensure our pups didn’t have separation anxiety and we received lots of photos and updates.”
“I can't say enough about Amanda! We felt so good leaving Jojo with Amana and Bailey for 5 days! What an enjoyable vacation we had knowing our fluffball was so well taken care of. THANK YOU, AMANDA!”
“I had a fantastic experience with Amy & Greg! Communication was fantastic, drop off and pick up were seamless and most of all, they took great care of my Lola! Their pups at home are so sweet and it sounds like their whole family enjoyed having another furry friend to take care of. I would highly recommend and definitely will be using them again.”

“Mary is very reliable. I know the cats will get their needs met when I book her. This time we had confusion about leaving out the key because my daughter left later than expected, and Mary just came back once the yet was out for her.”

“Shannon was great help with her drop-ins. I can definitely tell that while she was looking after my dog he enjoyed it just as much as she did. Her reports were very detailed and left me at ease while he was in her care. I would definitely recommend her services to anyone in the future!”
“Lindsey was awesome!! I hired her to take care of my 5 week old kittens + one adult cat for the weekend, and I’m so glad I did! She was punctual on their feeding times, administered oral meds, and was very communicative when I reached out — and even when I didn’t. Definitely recommend!”
“Danielle has watched my cat twice now and has done a great job :) She took the time to come meet her and let me show her around ahead of time which was appreciated. She sends multiple photos and I can tell my cat is so happy to see her. Thanks Danielle!!”
About: My first mommy gig I ever had was when me and my husband introduced Saydie, our fun loving, energetic pup to our siblings and friends. That was 13 years ago and now I have 4 human babies and Saydie is still my side kick! She loves being a big sister! I want to first and foremost want to let you know I don’t see pets as “just animals”. They are family, best friends and loving, feeling beings that crave attention and affection from the people who take them into their homes. I know how important my Saydie is, I know how important your special one is to you! In every activity listed, i will take pride and joy making sure your pup is treated with dignity and respect. If they have special routines I will make sure outlines are strictly followed while making sure they and yourself are comfortable with the schedules. I have been through all the fun (and sometimes crazy) early puppy years with my Saydie, feel at ease knowing I will help with my best ability to make sure your pup gets through obstacles unharmed and of course, always having a ton of fun in 5e process! I’ve been through potty training many times (6 to be exact, if you count my human babies! Ha!) and am aware of the little extra time needed for you to become happy and satisfied with their status. Potty breaks a few extra times for your little fur baby, especially if they are right in the middle of training process my yard is not fenced in but it’s not too small and there’s enough space for a long yard leash to have outside time and my neighbors are very respectful, they are already used to my dog, so there won’t be any issues there. I will come to your residence to check on them or visit them. I have NO criminal background and I know how extremely imperative it is that your home is respected and cared for. Everything will be exactly as it was when you left it and I will make sure your place is locked down safely and your little fur baby is managed before I leave. I want you to feel at ease knowing everything is being well watched while you can’t be there! I am up 6am-10p everyday for my own family, I would love to invite yours to visit when your away! My children are ages 4-9 and they absolutely LOVE all kinds of animals! They are very well educated in the proper ways to behave around animals and how to handle dogs with extreme care. They love meeting new furry friends! Call or check in anytime while your dog is in my care! I want to involve you as much as I can so you are comfortable with my services! I know how leaving them can sometimes stressful for not only you, but also them. They will know they are welcome in my home. Looking to fill my day time hours with bookings for pet care. All my children attend school 9am-430pm Monday - Friday every week!! I love dogs and I lmoromkzs kn nccchhchhh No fence around my yard, but there is a long leash that makes it possible for your pup to get enough safe space while outside for whatever reason.

About: Avid animal lovers, both fur and feathered alike! We are a family of four humans- mom and three children, with several outdoor feathered friends. We are an active household that enjoys many days outside, but also equally loves cuddling up on the couch for a movie night. At night, your pet is welcome to sleep wherever they find it most comfortable. We have had personal pet ownership experience with blindness, deafness, and separation anxiety in dogs. In addition to our own pets, we have also opened our home to foster dogs for several years, specializing and dog reactive dogs, as well as hospice/end of life care. My career consists of over a decade of hospital-based pharmacy experience, and I am now fortunate to currently work from home. With my career and volunteer dog hospice foster experience, I am comfortable and knowledgeable in administering any oral, subcutaneous, and IM medications. - We provide care to one outside family at a time to ensure a stress-free experience for everyone. I do allow exemptions for multifamily households. - Your pet will have an adult with them for at least 20/24 hours per day. Most updates are sent with morning breakfast, midafternoon rest, and before bedtime. You are also encouraged and welcome to reach out anytime outside of that. - If your pet does require a crate at any point, please ensure one accompanies them to drop off. We are a home-based boarding experience and do not have commercial kennel runs. - If your pet has been excused/banned from a commercial boarding facility, I do require a no-cost meet and greet for introductions before confirming the booking. It is my priority to ensure your pet feels safe, and I am confident in their needs before confirming commitment. - Privately insured for household companionship pets, which covers both care during boarding and any agreed-upon transportation. Keywords: home-based, medical needs, special needs, reactive, medication administration. I am generally available to accept same-day bookings as someone who works from home. At this time, my employer allows me to set my own hours, meaning I can easily adapt to your pet's schedule and any medical needs. Bathroom breaks are averaged at every two hours and anytime outside of this at your pup's request. If your pet prefers to spend afternoons in the sun, then that is where I am happy to work that day! Any pets boarded in our home can expect to have a human home a minimum of 20 out of the 24 hours in a day. We welcome your pets to rest and sleep wherever they are most comfortable- couch, pet bed, human bed, etc. If you request or your pet requires kenneling at any time, please ensure a kennel accompanies them to drop off. Our home is carpet-free (stress-free!), and we understand accidents happen. Please inform me if your pet is working on potty training, and we can reduce the number of rooms initially accessible. Our acreage is unfenced, and dogs have access to the backyard of the property. If your dog is not off-leash trained, we provide a pulley tie-out to allow them a greater range of access. If you are most comfortable with leash walking, that is also just fine with us!
“not sure what to say....we are so confident and comfortable with Sara, not to mention how comfortable Shiloh is!! We know Shiloh gets along well with her pups and he so enjoys playing. We get pictures which we love and just knowing he is so well cared for is a wonderful feeling......Sara is FABULOUS!!”
About: With 15+ years in the pet care industry, my experience from working at boarding faculties, doggy daycares, and pet hospitals has prepared me for taking care of your pets! 🐾 Incorporating pet care seamlessly into my day is second nature. It's all about blending routines. Having dedicated bonding time and play sessions make everyday enjoyable! Creating a safe and trusting environment is my top priority. I implement many safety measures, from secure play areas to health checks, to keep everyone safe & healthy. Your pet's comfort and well-being is extremely important to me!
“Our baby was safe and happy. Sydney took good care of her for the day while we went to the state fair. We knew she was in good hands. Very kind and animal loving. Thanks for watching our baby Indigo!”
“Karlee has done an amazing job taking care of Thor! When I drop him off he gets excited to see her everytime and I know he's in good hands! Karlee is very good at giving updates and sending pictures during his daycare! I highly recommend Karlee's daycare service it is easily worth what you pay! Thanks Karlee!”
About: I’ve been around dogs for most of my life and have experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities. I currently have a 4 year old Black Lab named Bear, and before him I had Coco, a Black Lab/Golden Retriever mix who was part of my family for 7 wonderful years (adopted at 8 and had her until the Rainbow Bridge). Caring for dogs through every stage of life has given me experience with everything from energetic young dogs to senior pets with changing needs. In addition to caring for my own dogs, I’ve pet sat for friends and neighbors while they’ve been away on vacation, providing dependable care, exercise, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention. I understand how important it is to know your pet is safe and well cared for when you’re away. I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to provide attentive care throughout the day. I joined Rover because I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and would love to help give pet owners peace of mind while they’re away. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, or just relaxing with good company, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I’m already used to planning my day around walks, potty breaks, playtime, feeding, and giving my own dog the attention he needs, so adding another furry friend is something I truly enjoy. Because I’m home for most of the day, pets won’t be left alone for long periods and can receive plenty of attention, companionship, and bathroom breaks. I also enjoy being active, so walks and outdoor time are a regular part of my routine. Whether your pet needs lots of play or prefers a quieter, relaxed environment, I’m happy to match their routine and make them feel as comfortable as possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a friendly 4-year-old Black Lab, Bear, who has a gentle temperament and no history of aggression. He enjoys meeting other dogs and has always done well with them, but I’ll always prioritize slow, safe introductions based on each dog’s comfort level. I also have two children who have grown up around animals and understand that pets deserve respect, space, and gentle interactions. They know not to disturb dogs while they’re eating, sleeping, or if they want time to themselves. Any interactions with your pet will always be supervised. I believe every pet is unique, so I’ll follow your instructions closely to help maintain their normal routine and make them feel safe and at home. I’ll treat your pet with the same care, patience, and attention that I give my own.

About: I have fostered both dogs and cats in the past. From childhood to the present day, a home is not complete without some form of animal companion. I tend to be an early riser and am very flexible. Cleaning up after myself as well as your pets is my specialty. I enjoy camping and antiquing when there’s no critters to hang out with. I am familiar with many types of leash and collar. I prefer to keep a dog heeled on most of the walk, letting them run and play when it’s appropriate to do so. If you have a preferred method of control I’m happy to accommodate. I’m comfortable giving meds and have experience with all kinds of feeding. When sitting, I’d love to water your plants and get the mail-any little extras that you need. I often take my dad shopping or to doctor’s appointments, and set my own schedule with my other jobs. How long your pets can be left alone (if at all) is up to you! I’m great at following orders, especially written instructions; please tell me how you usually handle your pets so I can keep it consistent for them! I like to go for walks, and like it even more if I have company. I also always enjoy a good snuggle.
About: Dogs are lovable and a helping career is fulfilling. By helping humans with their canines I get the best of both worlds! Dogs have always been apart of my life, and recently we had our own 13yo mutt who came as a puppy, had a long full life, and passed away in my husband’s arms. Before that we had another mutt that lived to be 16yo, but she was a pound puppy we got at about 2yo. Also, our dog-niece lived with us for January 2024 while her parents vacationed. I love to love-on peoples’ dogs. Let's chat soon. I’ll be at your home when you need me to care for your feline furbaby. Most cats in my care have been drop-ins, including feeding, watering, and cat box cleaning. Cats with dog siblings have been an occasional treat to care for, as well. Just show me the ropes and I will do my best to copy what you do for your cat(s). Teach me your ways, Sensei!
About: I have 4 playful dogs of my own (and sometimes a foster dog!), worked at a boarding facility a good chunk of my working career. Nice fenced in yard in a quiet neighborhood. I currently not taking in-house boarding due to having a foster dog at the moment, can do doggy daycare. * due to having 4 dogs of my own; I do NOT take non-social dogs. I work part time (some full time some weeks) so I am usually available. I am an active person at home playing with my own dogs, my dogs love having friends over. I am not taking in-house boarding appointments due to currently having a foster dog. Dogs have a nice fenced in yard! We pick up poop daily, and there are cameras inside and outside of the house. Frequently provide fresh water.
“Amy and her family were absolutely amazing and Marley loved going for Doggie Daycare! Thank you so much for taking such great care of our baby and for being so flexible as well!! We will definitely use you again for Marley care❤️”
About: Since day one, I have always had a dog in my life. A cat in my adult years and a few other critters throughout the years. They are all family! All my dogs have always been a big part of my life and I care for them deeply. Family/Friends have trusted me to care for their pets when needed. I am always happy to lend a helping hand, or a lap to cuddle on, an arm to throw a ball, or even lacing up those tennis shoes for a walk. I currently have a “teenager” (6 year American Staffordshire Terrier… major cuddles, playful, very sensitive stomach) and recently our senior Luna past over the rainbow bridge. I am patient and have energy for any requirement you may need while your babies are in my care. Working from home, I am quite flexible most days. I am an early riser and stay up late. So feedings, playtime, bathroom breaks, etc is not an issue for me. We have 5 acres of unfenced land to run around in. I also have a very large fenced Garden the dogs are allowed to roam in for off leash fun, as well as a sizeable wrap around deck to chill on and soak up the sun. We are outdoor people, so are our dog(s), so if it’s nice, you will find us out and about. With our training they do well to stay within our property and listen well if running around the yard. Communicate if your dog(s) need to be leashed (also have a leash line setup between trees to enjoy the outdoors as well). I would hope in any environment that your pets are trained and do well in the space provided or within, please communicate any special concerns, etc. I do have experience with “shock” collars for more so the ‘tone’ button, as we have wildlife and woods surrounding our house, we use this to protect our dogs from our surroundings periodically throughout the year. So I am comfortable using this method to ensure your pups stay safe.

“Awesome experience all the way around. Our two pups had a great stay and Heather's pup Aggie was the perfect co-host. Great fenced backyard for the pups to explore and play. We'll be back!”
About: I genuinely treat every pet as if they were my own, focusing on their individual needs, routines, and personalities. I'm dependable, attentive, and communicate openly with owners, ensuring peace of mind while they’re away. Whether it's extra playtime, careful attention to health needs, or simply being a calming presence, I go above and beyond to make sure each pet feels safe, loved, and happy. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine I plan my days around feeding times, walks, play sessions, and any special needs a pet may have. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening cuddle time, I make sure each pet gets consistent attention, exercise, and care throughout the day. Their well-being is always a top priority in my schedule. In my home, I provide a safe, comfortable, and pet friendly environment where pets can relax, play, and feel at home. I stick closely to their usual routines, offer plenty of attention, playtime, and outdoor walks, and make sure they have a cozy space to rest. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions carefully to keep pets in a familiar, low-stress environment. I focus on maintaining their normal schedule, giving them lots of love and engagement, and keeping owners updated with regular photos and messages.

About: I grew up with a cocker spaniel and absolutely adored him! I currently am saving up to get an English springer spaniel ~ everything I earn here will go straight to my future pup 😊 I am my moms (cockapoo and cavapoo), grandparents (cocker spaniel), and was my late-uncle’s (Chesapeake and German Shepard/husky mix) go-to dog sitter or “drop in” support and thought this would be a great way to make some extra money. I work from home so I’m able to have flexibility to provide extra love and care for your pets! I love taking dogs for walks, playing fetch with them and giving them lots of attention. I work from home so I’m able to be flexible and provide drop in and/or walking service when needed. I can block my work calendar and provide support for you and your pet(s). I truly believe that our hearts grow 10x for our own fur babies, so I want to provide the best, most attentive care to your pets and take care of them as if they were my own.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and have hosted over 30 foster dogs for our local Humane Society. Some of our foster mamas have even given birth to their puppies at our home. I currently have a wonderful golden retriever, Mya, who is always happy to meet new friends. Mya and I enjoy hiking, camping, and spending as much time outside as possible.

About: I strive to provide the care and professionalism that I need and expect to be provided to my own pets. Dogs are wonderful creatures that deserve proper love and attention integrated into their family life. I have experience with successful training of my own dog's basic obedience skills (sit, stay, heel, eat, touch, shake, etc). Have taken care of many other dogs, reptiles, and fish for people in my life. I am especially interested in helping reactive dogs or dogs with behavioral issues. I work freelance so I set my own schedule for the most part. Completely flexible for clients needs. A few weeks of the year I'm booked for longer gigs but that is easily identifiable up front for potential clients. Care for clients is completely dependent on their needs and comforts. I will always defer to the client for what is needed for them and their environment. Open and honest communication is the foundation for care and comfortability.
About: *Note I go by Danny, but Rachel is my legal name. And then my partner Morgan sometimes helps me out on my visits. About me: I have taken care of cats all my life, and when it comes to dogs I've babysat more than I can count. I love them all. I can handle gentle types. Even loud ones. Let me know if they need special commands or to be talked to. I love to talk personally with the animals and just be with them. :) This is my primary job for now, so I would be available whenever YOU want. I also love and have my 3 lovely cats on a daily basis. We could sit and watch TV at home, or maybe learn something new? I like to grow with the animal. I also love to spoil them. :)
About: I bring two years of vet tech schooling and a genuine love for dogs and cats, offering safe, attentive, knowledgeable care that keeps every pet relaxed and happy. I'm currently working part time so I have lots of free time to care for your furry loved ones. My availability is pretty flexible for the summer :) I have a fenced in yard and 1 dog who is friendly and crate trained. I’m attentive to noise, stimulation, and comfort, especially for pets who may be anxious in new environments.
About: I can provide a safe quiet home for your pet to visit when you’re away. I work from home and spend the days with our almost 8 year old boxer mix, Aggie. We love taking walks to the park near our home and we have a small fenced in back yard with a privacy fence. Aggie gets along with almost every dog and will sometimes play. She can be pretty vocal when she plays but is otherwise super quiet. She’s a great role model for younger dogs :) I work from home so I am usually home with the pets for most of the day. We take daily walks when the weather is good. We have a large dog crate if your dog needs. Our yard is fenced in and dogs wouldn’t usually be home alone for more than a few hours.
About: Avid animal lovers, both fur and feathered alike! We are a family of four humans- mom and three children, with several outdoor feathered friends. We are an active household that enjoys many days outside, but also equally loves cuddling up on the couch for a movie night. At night, your pet is welcome to sleep wherever they find it most comfortable. We have had personal pet ownership experience with blindness, deafness, and separation anxiety in dogs. In addition to our own pets, we have also opened our home to foster dogs for several years, specializing and dog reactive dogs, as well as hospice/end of life care. My career consists of over a decade of hospital-based pharmacy experience, and I am now fortunate to currently work from home. With my career and volunteer dog hospice foster experience, I am comfortable and knowledgeable in administering any oral, subcutaneous, and IM medications. - We provide care to one outside family at a time to ensure a stress-free experience for everyone. I do allow exemptions for multifamily households. - Your pet will have an adult with them for at least 20/24 hours per day. Most updates are sent with morning breakfast, midafternoon rest, and before bedtime. You are also encouraged and welcome to reach out anytime outside of that. - If your pet does require a crate at any point, please ensure one accompanies them to drop off. We are a home-based boarding experience and do not have commercial kennel runs. - If your pet has been excused/banned from a commercial boarding facility, I do require a no-cost meet and greet for introductions before confirming the booking. It is my priority to ensure your pet feels safe, and I am confident in their needs before confirming commitment. - Privately insured for household companionship pets, which covers both care during boarding and any agreed-upon transportation. Keywords: home-based, medical needs, special needs, reactive, medication administration. I am generally available to accept same-day bookings as someone who works from home. At this time, my employer allows me to set my own hours, meaning I can easily adapt to your pet's schedule and any medical needs. Bathroom breaks are averaged at every two hours and anytime outside of this at your pup's request. If your pet prefers to spend afternoons in the sun, then that is where I am happy to work that day! Any pets boarded in our home can expect to have a human home a minimum of 20 out of the 24 hours in a day. We welcome your pets to rest and sleep wherever they are most comfortable- couch, pet bed, human bed, etc. If you request or your pet requires kenneling at any time, please ensure a kennel accompanies them to drop off. Our home is carpet-free (stress-free!), and we understand accidents happen. Please inform me if your pet is working on potty training, and we can reduce the number of rooms initially accessible. Our acreage is unfenced, and dogs have access to the backyard of the property. If your dog is not off-leash trained, we provide a pulley tie-out to allow them a greater range of access. If you are most comfortable with leash walking, that is also just fine with us!
“Janneke is great with Leo. She gives him a great walk and when the weather doesn’t cooperate she will play with him inside and still give him a potty break. She’s very dependable!”
About: I have grown up with dogs and cats. I currently live with a black lab. I also have two cats at my parent's house. I began volunteering at the Tri County Humane Society in Saint Cloud a few months ago and love it. I have plenty of experience with dogs and cats, big or small, calm or crazy. I work overnights three days a week and wanted something that I could do in my free time. I am available pretty much whenever during the weekdays and most weekends. I am currently living with a ten year old black lab who is a very laid back dog in his older age. I also volunteer at the humane society and have taken dogs for walks and helped with shelter care (cleaning cages, letting dogs out, etc.). I am very comfortable with any task thrown at me, but I mainly prefer dog walking.
About: I have a lifelong passion for caring for animals, always having a beloved pet by my side. With years of experience as the go-to pet sitter in my family and friend group, I take pride in giving animals my full, undivided attention. I genuinely enjoy spending time walking and playing with all types of pets. I am committed to providing reliable and dedicated care for your pets, anytime and anywhere you need me. As a full-time pet sitter, I’m just one message away, ready to meet your needs. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority. I ensure they are well-fed, hydrated, and never miss a potty break. Daily walks and engaging playtime are always part of the care I provide. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine, as it aligns with my passion for animals and my flexible schedule. Whether it's for my own pets or those I care for as a sitter, I dedicate specific times each day to feeding, walking, and playing with them. My focus is on providing loving, personalized care that meets each pet’s unique needs. I maintain the pet’s routine, following specific instructions for feeding, medication, and exercise.
About: I have taken care of pets for 8 years as if they are my own and that is how I will treat your furry family member too. I do currently work full time, so care is best in the evenings or weekends. Overnight care and play dates drop ins can also be best on weekends and evenings. I will care for pets in your home under your direction, and will not sway from it. I will be sure of you are gone your furry family member’s schedule stays as consistent as possible.
About: I have 2 kittens of my own, and I have grown up with dogs my whole life! I’ve also dog sat and walked for my family for a few years. I currently work full time 3 days a week and part time the other two. My schedule is completely flexible at the moment! Just let me know and we’ll make something work! :) I’m dependable, respectful, and trustworthy. I have experience and I make sure all the animals are walked, fed, played with, loved on, and given all the pettings!
About: My first mommy gig I ever had was when me and my husband introduced Saydie, our fun loving, energetic pup to our siblings and friends. That was 13 years ago and now I have 4 human babies and Saydie is still my side kick! She loves being a big sister! I want to first and foremost want to let you know I don’t see pets as “just animals”. They are family, best friends and loving, feeling beings that crave attention and affection from the people who take them into their homes. I know how important my Saydie is, I know how important your special one is to you! In every activity listed, i will take pride and joy making sure your pup is treated with dignity and respect. If they have special routines I will make sure outlines are strictly followed while making sure they and yourself are comfortable with the schedules. I have been through all the fun (and sometimes crazy) early puppy years with my Saydie, feel at ease knowing I will help with my best ability to make sure your pup gets through obstacles unharmed and of course, always having a ton of fun in 5e process! I’ve been through potty training many times (6 to be exact, if you count my human babies! Ha!) and am aware of the little extra time needed for you to become happy and satisfied with their status. Potty breaks a few extra times for your little fur baby, especially if they are right in the middle of training process my yard is not fenced in but it’s not too small and there’s enough space for a long yard leash to have outside time and my neighbors are very respectful, they are already used to my dog, so there won’t be any issues there. I will come to your residence to check on them or visit them. I have NO criminal background and I know how extremely imperative it is that your home is respected and cared for. Everything will be exactly as it was when you left it and I will make sure your place is locked down safely and your little fur baby is managed before I leave. I want you to feel at ease knowing everything is being well watched while you can’t be there! I am up 6am-10p everyday for my own family, I would love to invite yours to visit when your away! My children are ages 4-9 and they absolutely LOVE all kinds of animals! They are very well educated in the proper ways to behave around animals and how to handle dogs with extreme care. They love meeting new furry friends! Call or check in anytime while your dog is in my care! I want to involve you as much as I can so you are comfortable with my services! I know how leaving them can sometimes stressful for not only you, but also them. They will know they are welcome in my home. Looking to fill my day time hours with bookings for pet care. All my children attend school 9am-430pm Monday - Friday every week!! I love dogs and I lmoromkzs kn nccchhchhh No fence around my yard, but there is a long leash that makes it possible for your pup to get enough safe space while outside for whatever reason.

“Mikaela was wonderful hosting our pup. She was excellent at coordinating drop off and pick up. I really appreciate the pictures and updates she sent to us. Our dog was always excited to go back over and they welcomed him warmly into their home.”
“Karlee was so patient with my nervous kitty! It was such a relief knowing he was somewhere safe, even if nervous. She gave him the affection/ pets he loves at his level of comfort. He got to be a bit spicy at the end of his visit, but that had nothing to do with her care. Thank you so much for watching him! The daily updates were so reassuring for me!”
“Words can’t describe how much my husband & I are satisfied with choosing Kelsey to watch our little Roxiie while we were on vacation . She’s very fast at replying , sent us pictures every day of our puppy but most of all bonded & cared for Roxiie like if she was part of her family. She is very kind & cares a lot !!!

“Don is great with our dog Wyatt. He comes home happy and exhausted from playing with Don's two dogs. We appreciate that he walks the dogs and has a fenced in yard that the dogs can safely play in.”

“Grace was absolutely amazing while she watched our dog! From the moment we dropped her off, we knew she was in great hands. Grace kept us updated throughout the stay with regular messages and lots of photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. She truly welcomes your dog as if they were one of her own, and it's clear how much she genuinely cares about the animals she looks after. She is incredibly professional, kind, and trustworthy, and we never had to worry for a second. I would highly recommend Grace to anyone looking for exceptional dog care. We will definitely be using her again in the future!”
