“Our little guy absolutely loved his time with Kajae and Emily! He came back to us after an overnight stay very tired and happy. They clearly treat your animal like their own and also send pictures and updates. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone 😊”
“Caitlin was so incredible to our girls. We got lots of great pictures and updates! She was great for both my super senior and my rocket dog who never wants to quit playing. They were picked up and dropped off which was such a blessing when our flights were at crazy times. Sue gave us the sweetest parting gift as well. Love Caitlin!!!”
“Chris is absolutely wonderful! She took exceptional care of Piper, keeping me updated and making sure she was happy, safe, and loved. I felt completely at ease knowing she was in such capable hands. Highly recommend!”
“Sydney was easy to work with. She had a large fenced backyard where my dogs got to run. They were very tired after pick up so I know they were well exercised which is great for my pups!”
“We are so happy with the great care Amanda gave our Bella. We felt our vacation was better because Bella was getting such great care. Photo updates helped us to relax and know she was doing well. We will definitely have Amanda take care of her again!”
“Lucy had a good time with Amy, Gregory and their family. She got along with the family's other pets and they enjoyed her and sent lots of pictures and updates. I am very comfortable with their care for Lucy and have scheduled again with them.”
“Ashley and her family were great caregivers for our pup, Murphy! Communication was excellent (loved getting photo updates during the stay), and Murphy seemed to have really enjoyed her time at their home.”
“Stacy was very calm and professional. My dog was pretty calm around Stacy which is rare for her. Stacy wasn't afraid to ask questions about my dog and sent updates regularly. I definitely recommend Stacy.”
About: I’ve been an animal lover my whole life. Growing up with dogs, I quickly became in tune with their needs and can form a bond quickly! I go above and beyond to make every dog I meet feel loved and welcomed. I grew up with cats, dogs, and horses. I’m currently home with my little boy for the summer so my availability is virtually wide open! I’ll be able to provide walks, pets, and so much more. I have an outdoor kennel with a nice house in it if needed. Otherwise, I can provide a crate inside in a calm environment. My 2 dogs are around to play with your dog as well! If you’re worried about my dogs and your dog getting along, I can separate them-no problem.
“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!”
“My experience with Crystal M. Was wonderful. I was kept updated through photos and texts. I would definitely recommend her services, and I will definitely be a repeating customer.”
“Loved working with Ashley, she always kept me up to date on how my dogs were doing, she took the time to understand the needs of each of them personally. She had an amazing set up in her garage so each dog had their personally space. Wonderful fenced in yard for them to be safe while having a place to have fun. Definitely would book with Ashley again.”
“Mikayla helped me out when I was stranded in town for a funeral during a blizzard and my pre-arranged sitter canceled at the last minute. She sent me frequent photos and updates, and both pooches came back healthy and happy! Thank you so much for your help!”
“Travis was great! Provided plenty of updates and was very flexible with pick up and drop off times. Seems to really love dogs and treated my little guy like his own. Would definitely recommend.”
About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give to every pet as if they were my own. I take the time to learn each dog or cat’s personality, routine, and specific needs so they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. I have experience working with both puppies and senior pets. With puppies, I focus on reinforcing basic training like potty routines, crate training, and positive behavior habits. For senior pets, I’m patient and attentive to mobility issues, medication schedules, and creating a calm, low-stress environment. I’m also highly reliable and communicative—I provide regular updates, photos, and check-ins so you always know how your pet is doing. Whether your pet needs energetic playtime, structured routines, or gentle, attentive care, I adapt to what works best for them. Above all, I aim to build trust—not just with pets, but with their owners too—so you can feel completely confident while you’re away. I am currently working full-time but with my scheduling I am able to build time around pets needs. Each day includes feeding, walks or playtime, and general check-ins to make sure they’re healthy and comfortable. I live in home with a fenced in yard. All animals are allowed in all rooms as well as furniture. I do have a crate if need be and two friendly doodles to keep your dog company with lots of toys to play with!

“I believe this was the first time Kendra watched a cat before. I was very pleased. She contacted me when she had questions/concerns when she felt Charlie wasn't eating the way she thought he should, which is huge! This was Charlie's first experience with dogs and he seemed to settle in well. They were calm with there 1st introduction which shows that they are well socialized. After the third day there it seemed that Charlie ruled the roost tormenting the dogs...made me chuckle 😃. I will definitely use her in the future!”
“I was so nervous to leave MG alone but Rover has some great people and we are very blessed to have found out about this service. I was also especially nervous because MG is a rescue that I rescued myself and so not much information is known. So im still navigating and understanding her personality. She did so good with Valleri and im so happy that it went good. I also feel relieved MG has been able to go outside for a while and eat and drink. Thanks so much for all you do!!”
“Very pleased with the service Piper provided! I asked her to do two dates that were several days apart because my other pet sitter couldn't do them. This would have been challenging for me to remember - but she was totally on top of it. She even texted me early in the day on the second date to confirm that she would be there - and she was! She took great pictures of my cat and offered to help in any way she could. My cat was happy and healthy when I returned home. I am VERY HAPPY to have another pet sitter I can trust. Thanks, Piper!!”
“Amy was fantastic! We would trust Amy with our furry little ones every time! Amy was always right on time. Her messages included the bad (💩 on floor) along with all of the good. We received a message after every visit including pictures of the dogs. The care she showed our dogs allowed us to enjoy our time away.”

“Kaylee did an excellent job caring for my kitties, Hank and Abbey. She was very detailed and thorough in her updates, sent lots of pictures, and they were very well cared for in my absence. I would highly recommend Kaylee to anyone, and will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”

“I can’t express how pleased I am with Kevin’s stay with Sydney. I was incredibly nervous to leave my dog for the first time but I was quickly relieved by how responsive, trustworthy, and kind Sydney is! My dog had a wonderful time playing all day:)!”
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.

“Krista was awesome! This was our first time leaving Tank with anyone and we were a little leery about it, but she assured us everything would be fine and it really was! Tank was happy to see me when I picked him up but I know he had a fun day! I will definitely have her again!”
“Scott and Julia were just wonderful with my dog Luna. She is very anxious and my baby, but she was comfortable there almost instantly. I received constant updates and wonderful pictures! Luna will definitely be staying there again!!”

I enjoy playing with the animals, making sure they are fed in a consistent schedule and make them feel comfortable.
About: Animals have always been apart of my life growing up my parents bred English mastiff and pugs. I showed dogs in 4-H for 4 years and it really helped me amass so much knowledge. I have extensive experience with senior dogs and they hold a very special place in my heart. With us your senior will be in the best of hands. I don’t have a regular 9-5 so most of my day is spent home with the pups. I have my dogs on a specific feeding/potty schedule but I am very flexible to make your pup feel as comfortable as possible. I like to think I treat them as one of my one while keeping in mind if the owner has and rules or requests of their own.
“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 have always had a love for dogs, ever since I was little. I will provide the best care for your dog, while making it comfortable and fun for them! I've had dogs and many other animals all my life and know exactly the care they require (including a hedgehog, bearded dragon, bunnies, and fish) I also raise mallard ducks, which has nothing to do with dogs, but I have doctored them up from some pretty gruesome injuries, as well as when my own puppies are injured, I make it my first priority to take special care of them and give them the love and tender care they need!

I love dogs and have a lot of experience with a multitude of different dogs due to family, roommates, and friends.

I add a touch of difference with the care I provide to all of the animals I work with in that I treat each one individually and never work in a "cookie cutter" approach. I started working with and training animals (horses and dogs) at the age of fifteen. Throughout the years, my interest and passion with animals grew, as well as my experience.

I truly enjoy building a sincere bond and connection with each family I encounter so that when they step away, they can feel at ease and enjoy their time without distress or worry. Topnotch care is my priority! I have decided after many years of working in family care industries, that my remaining years, I want to follow what was my childhood dream. Working with animals, yet still getting to keep my other passion, family care. I couldn't ask for a better combination. With my many years of experience, I always adapt my care to each of my pets needs. As I previously had mentioned I don't believe in "cookie cutter care" approach. I tailor my care to each pets individual needs and concerns.

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’ve been an animal lover my whole life. Growing up with dogs, I quickly became in tune with their needs and can form a bond quickly! I go above and beyond to make every dog I meet feel loved and welcomed. I grew up with cats, dogs, and horses. I’m currently home with my little boy for the summer so my availability is virtually wide open! I’ll be able to provide walks, pets, and so much more. I have an outdoor kennel with a nice house in it if needed. Otherwise, I can provide a crate inside in a calm environment. My 2 dogs are around to play with your dog as well! If you’re worried about my dogs and your dog getting along, I can separate them-no problem.
About: When I was little I used to rescue dogs from the street and take them home to bathe them and feed them. My mom helped me find them a house or sometimes we stayed with them. I know the importance and respect they deserve. I work and take care of my house, currently I don't have any time to invest in anything other than that. That's why I'm currently quitting my job to try something more different. I will only walk dogs, I live in an apartment so for the moment no animals can enter. I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
About: I’ve had dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes all of my life! Reliable, attentive, and passionate about keeping your pets happy and healthy while you’re away. I am currently enrolled in online college classes full time. That means I’ll be home with your pup all day every day to provide them the most care. I am a very active person and would love to help your dog get some energy out with lots of walks and dog park time!

“Our little guy absolutely loved his time with Kajae and Emily! He came back to us after an overnight stay very tired and happy. They clearly treat your animal like their own and also send pictures and updates. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone 😊”
“Caitlin was so incredible to our girls. We got lots of great pictures and updates! She was great for both my super senior and my rocket dog who never wants to quit playing. They were picked up and dropped off which was such a blessing when our flights were at crazy times. Sue gave us the sweetest parting gift as well. Love Caitlin!!!”
“Sydney was easy to work with. She had a large fenced backyard where my dogs got to run. They were very tired after pick up so I know they were well exercised which is great for my pups!”
“We are so happy with the great care Amanda gave our Bella. We felt our vacation was better because Bella was getting such great care. Photo updates helped us to relax and know she was doing well. We will definitely have Amanda take care of her again!”
“Ashley and her family were great caregivers for our pup, Murphy! Communication was excellent (loved getting photo updates during the stay), and Murphy seemed to have really enjoyed her time at their home.”

“My experience with Crystal M. Was wonderful. I was kept updated through photos and texts. I would definitely recommend her services, and I will definitely be a repeating customer.”
“Loved working with Ashley, she always kept me up to date on how my dogs were doing, she took the time to understand the needs of each of them personally. She had an amazing set up in her garage so each dog had their personally space. Wonderful fenced in yard for them to be safe while having a place to have fun. Definitely would book with Ashley again.”
About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give to every pet as if they were my own. I take the time to learn each dog or cat’s personality, routine, and specific needs so they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. I have experience working with both puppies and senior pets. With puppies, I focus on reinforcing basic training like potty routines, crate training, and positive behavior habits. For senior pets, I’m patient and attentive to mobility issues, medication schedules, and creating a calm, low-stress environment. I’m also highly reliable and communicative—I provide regular updates, photos, and check-ins so you always know how your pet is doing. Whether your pet needs energetic playtime, structured routines, or gentle, attentive care, I adapt to what works best for them. Above all, I aim to build trust—not just with pets, but with their owners too—so you can feel completely confident while you’re away. I am currently working full-time but with my scheduling I am able to build time around pets needs. Each day includes feeding, walks or playtime, and general check-ins to make sure they’re healthy and comfortable. I live in home with a fenced in yard. All animals are allowed in all rooms as well as furniture. I do have a crate if need be and two friendly doodles to keep your dog company with lots of toys to play with!
“Wonderful family. Made me feel good when I asked their oldest son, who our dog snuggled with at night, if he wanted our puppy to come back and visit and his response was yes with the biggest smile ever. Good communication with us and a wonderful set up for dogs. Will definitely use again.”
“Our dogs had a blast with Zach! They were well taken care of, got to go to a dog park and came home exhausted and very happy. His dog is also very sweet and so calm. We will be returning in the future when we go out of town again. Thanks Zach!”
About: I have been a vet tech for 13years now and also have fostered over 30 dogs in the last 4 years. Knowledge with health, behavior and wellness. We love senior pets and understand the care that goes into them! Variety of experience with different dog breeds. I work at home full time during the week. We have 2 dogs and a cat so pets are not left alone more than 3 hours during non work days. Your dog will be treated like a member of the family in our home. We live in a quiet neighborhood on almost 3 acres. Dogs will be taken out on a leash to potty. We have 2 dogs that are friendly and social and 2 boys that are dog savvy kids. There is a cat in the home as well that will more than likely be hiding during your dogs stay. I am able to administer medications if needed. Nail trim and/or bath can be provided for fee
“We had a great experience! Our pup got a lot of snuggles and plenty of activity. Jill sent daily updates so we could see our pup often when we were missing her. This was a great home away from home for our girl.”
