“Our baby was spoiled at Christine’s, felling comfortable jump onto her sofa and cry for petting, rolling to show her belly, and beg for treats. Christine took such a good care of our baby and she came home missing her so much. She sits on the blanket that Christine give her as a gift the whole day. Thank you, Christine, for making her feel like home!”
“Our dog has stayed with Emily and Kajae a couple of times now and we have always had a great experience! They are great about sending updates and pictures. They are also very accommodating and easy to work with!”
“Our Rusty stayed with Jon and Jessica and their family for three nights. We received photos and updates each day of his stay. He went for walks, played ball in the backyard and had fun with their kids. Jon and Jessica were very responsive in all our correspondence. Rusty was clean and happy when we picked him up. Would feel very comfortable having him stay with Jon, Jessica and family again!”
“Our dog took to Sydney the moment he met her at our meet and greet. That is saying a lot as he is usually very leery of new people. Our dog spent a long weekend in the care of Sydney in her home where he had personal space and a lovely fenced-in yard to run around. We received updates from Sydney a couple of times a day, including a video, on how he was doing. Our dog takes medication and it is quite often a real struggle to get him to take it ... he got his medication everyday during his stay. Definitely recommend Sydney!!!”
“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.”
“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.”
“Jennifer was a wonderful pet sitter. So wonderful in fact, that my dog Ms. Millie didn't recognize me when I came to pick her up! I will absolutely be asking Jennifer to watch Millie again! Book with confidence! Thank you so much Jennifer!”
“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!”
“Sara was great with communication with us. She set up a meet 'n' greet with my dog and myself before we officially booked. Everything at her place was well set up and I liked the fact that she had an area fenced in for dogs to run freely. She gave updates and sent videos and pictures to us while we were away which my kids loved. Would definitely book again with Sara.”
“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.”
“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!”
“This was our 15 month old ShihPoo’s first overnight with a pet sitter. Mary Beth went the extra mile to make sure Ollie was comfortable, including a meet-and-greet the week of the stay. She provided lots of walks, some pics, and outside time with her own dog and family. Mary Beth and her family also comforted Ollie through his first thunderstorm! I highly recommend her for bookings!”
“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.”
“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!”
“Happy repeat stay! Roux was so excited to be back with Ashley’s family! She didn’t even want a goodbye hug she was so ready to play! I don’t want to say this publicly for fear of Ashley’s calendar filling up, but she’s our first choice when it comes to someone taking care of our pup.”
“Amazing, Andrea treats Monty like he’s one of her own dogs. She gives us updates promptly about how Monty is enjoying his time with her and her family! He absolutely loves going there!”
“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.”

“This was the best service we have ever experienced with our pets. Jennifer was very personable and we felt like we had a friend stopping by to check on our pets. We will definitely be using this service in the future Thanks Mike & Krista”
“Mikayla was awesome! She was so easy to work with and very responsible. I would rebook her in a heartbeat whenever I travel again. She did an amazing job and even managed to take photos of my skittish cats. She kept the litter area impeccable. I recommend her 100%!”
“Heather was great!!!! She contacted me with problems and sent pictures. She took amazing care of our kitties while we were away. She made a stressful weekend away for us a little easier. We will definitely book her again!!!”

About: I’ve had dogs around the house since I was 2 years old and have had many other pets ranging from rats to hedgehogs! I been able to adequately take care of each for as long as i’ve had them! I am currently on summer break from college so I have plenty of time to walk dogs and get in the time they need outside! I was able to take my elder dog on walks everyday to keep him active and get him his time outside. I also helped around the house with taking care of him, playing, and feeding him.
“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!”
About: I have grown up with dogs and many other pets since birth. We used to raise dogs, now we have two medium sized dogs. I love animals and I hope to have a career where I can continue that passion. Just graduated from high school May 2025, and I have a schedule allowing me to be able to continue caring for animals and to continue this passion of mine! I have two medium family dogs and they are very important, special members of the family. I treat every single pet with care and respect.
About: I've taken care of, trained and loved animals since I was little. Growing up that infatuation grew into a dream to have my own kennel and business. Now I own and operate Pawsitive Journey, so in a way uou could say that dream has turned into a reality. I'm experienced with a wide variety of behaved dogs, puppies and more. Don't be afraid to reach out. When your fur babies are in my care, they will be treated and cared for as family. I'm currently self-employed through Pawsitive Journey, so I will have plenty of time to provide your pet with the care, attention, and playtime you want and expect. I have a 6+ years of handling and caring for animals in general and would be able to provide the most comfort and the most exhilarating time while you are away, depending on what your pet requires.
About: Guaranteeing love, attention, and compassion when you need to step away from home regardless for length of time or reason. I am highly dedicated to my families and their furry family members. 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 at the age of fifteen and have always had cats. Throughout the years, my interest and passion with animals as a whole grew, as well as my experience. Due to my long-term experience, I am able to adapt to your pets' individual needs with age, both young and old. I am trained in pet first-aid and CPR, and I am comfortable with any prescribed medical care needs you may have necessary for them. 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!
About: I have taken care of cats my whole life! I am able to care for all ages and breeds. I understand all of your feline friends are different and should be treated as so. I am also able to provide a harness for taking them outside! I will leave your cat feeling loved and cared for.
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: I have had pets my whole life with different personalities. I currently have the most energetic dog with the biggest heart and personality and love him to pieces. I have taken care of my friends animals on numerous occasions. I work a full time job. I am willing to drop in before work and after work. I have my weekends and every other Friday completely open. I have a condo so not a lot of room so I am willing to drop by and take care of any animal. I take my pup on walks and play with him. I show him much puppy love and will treat any animal the same love.

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!
“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!”
“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.
About: I have over 30 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages. My love for animals started when I was young, walking dogs for neighbors and friends, and it quickly grew into a lifelong passion. As I got older, I volunteered at my local humane society and have continued providing trusted pet care for pets ever since. I have extensive experience working with dogs of all temperaments, including reactive dogs, dogs with separation anxiety, and dogs who may show aggressive behaviors. I’m patient, attentive, and always focused on creating a calm, safe, and positive environment for every dog in my care. In addition, I have experience with housebreaking as well as basic obedience training, and I’m happy to help reinforce routines and good habits during your pet’s stay. I have experience with house breaking and basic obedience training. I work part time from home which gives me a lot of flexibility to do what I’m most passionate about which is taking care of animals!
About: I have been exposed to dogs and cats for my whole life. I have taken care of many family's animals such as walks, feeding, play time, and bathing . I currently am working part time so I have lots of free time. The time I am available kind of just depends on the time of the year/week. I have a big open yard and I very friendly lab that loves play time with others, although can also be caged if needed. I am very open to any services that are needed.
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 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: 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.

“Amazing walk with my dog! It was a little hot so she accommodated the walk to the grass outside our home. On time, very patient with our dog who is nervous around new people. Sent pictures to update us. 10/10 would book again.”

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 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.

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 currently have two dogs, a german shepherd and a very entertaining rescue mix. With my german shepherd, we are a K9 team with a search and rescue organization where we are called upon by law enforcement only for people who go lost or missing throught the upper Midwest. I still currently train dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments, in addition to training service dogs through an individually owned local business. Due to my long-term experience, I am able to adapt to your pets' individual needs with age, both young and old. I am trained in pet first-aid and CPR, and I am comfortable with any prescribed medical care needs you may have necessary for them. 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 the financial industry and family care industries, that my remaining years, I want to follow what was my childhood dream. Working with animals! 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.
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: Hi my name is Paige. I am outgoing and active a great combination to take care of your loving family dog. I love animals, I used to have 16 pets a variety of them but two included a dog. I have taken care of a couple dogs with walking and watching them while the family was away. i took a lot of classes at school and have learned new things about dogs and other animals. My availabilty is Weekdays, and weekends but I have breaks inbetween jobs and going home where I could make a quick run to your house to feed or take your dog for a walk. I hope to hear from you soon, and I can’t wait to play with your family pet. I currently have a full time job, but I can do drop ins and be able to come to your place before and after work. If needed your pet can come with me in the car if you’re comfortable. I currently have three cats, my cats are good with other animals but just would still keep your pet comfortable and have their own place. For your home you let me know what your comfortable with and what a daily schedule looks like for your pet.
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: I have experience taking care of dogs my entire life! I am able to care for large and small dogs alike. Ages ranging from seniors to puppies. I understand that all dogs are different and should be treated as so. I am suited to reading dog behavior and know how to proceed. I will leave your barking friend feeling loved and well cared for. I am able to take multiple dogs on walks at a time. I have experience giving oral medication as well! I am available all weekdays and certain weekends- just shoot me a message and I will let you know! I currently have 1 senior cat, 1 young tabby cat, and 1 large dog (Dogo Argentino) that I take care of and love on the daily! I am very respectful of my clients property and belongings. I will always leave the doors locked and follow any further instruction to insure the safety of you and your pets home. I am able to read animals and their behavior to determine how I will greet and care for them. I love walks and can crate when needed!

“Our dog has stayed with Emily and Kajae a couple of times now and we have always had a great experience! They are great about sending updates and pictures. They are also very accommodating and easy to work with!”
“Our dog took to Sydney the moment he met her at our meet and greet. That is saying a lot as he is usually very leery of new people. Our dog spent a long weekend in the care of Sydney in her home where he had personal space and a lovely fenced-in yard to run around. We received updates from Sydney a couple of times a day, including a video, on how he was doing. Our dog takes medication and it is quite often a real struggle to get him to take it ... he got his medication everyday during his stay. Definitely recommend Sydney!!!”
“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.”
“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.”
“As always, Heather took great care of Zelda & Link. We love the peace of mind knowing they are safe & happy staying with Heather when we go out of town. Thanks for loving our pups!”
“Jennifer was a wonderful pet sitter. So wonderful in fact, that my dog Ms. Millie didn't recognize me when I came to pick her up! I will absolutely be asking Jennifer to watch Millie again! Book with confidence! Thank you so much Jennifer!”
“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!”
“Sara was great with communication with us. She set up a meet 'n' greet with my dog and myself before we officially booked. Everything at her place was well set up and I liked the fact that she had an area fenced in for dogs to run freely. She gave updates and sent videos and pictures to us while we were away which my kids loved. Would definitely book again with Sara.”
“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!”
“Renee was amazing with my puppies! She was very flexible, and took very good care of my boys. I loved getting a couple updates and pictures of them through their stay overnight as well as a fun puppy report card when I pick them up that detailed their meals, sleep, mood, all the things you want to know when you leave your fur babies with someone! Would recommend her again to anyone!”
About: I tailor my care to you and your pets, with the goal of providing the same love and structure they’re used to. I love to learn their routines, quirks, and comforts so they feel completely at home. I come from a nursing background, so I am comfortable providing medications and treatments. I have a special love for elderly animals! I also have significant farm experience, so if watching over your farm is also something you need, please reach out! I have a very flexible schedule which allows me to focus on caring for your pets during our booking. I am happy to communicate my schedule specifics with you when we meet! My goal is to create a space where both pets and their owners can feel completely at ease. I maintain a calm, clean environment, and provide thoughtful attention and careful supervision.
“Karlee was excellent, Maverick came home exhausted from all the playtime he got! It was first time using Rover app, so was a little nervous going in, but she sent updates and pics. Will definately use her again!!”
“Happy repeat stay! Roux was so excited to be back with Ashley’s family! She didn’t even want a goodbye hug she was so ready to play! I don’t want to say this publicly for fear of Ashley’s calendar filling up, but she’s our first choice when it comes to someone taking care of our pup.”
“Amazing, Andrea treats Monty like he’s one of her own dogs. She gives us updates promptly about how Monty is enjoying his time with her and her family! He absolutely loves going there!”
About: Hello, I grew up on a farm and have lived with animals all of my life. I have cared for kittens, puppies, goats, cattle and chickens. I grew up with Aussies and am currently very active with our dog, Rylee - although I am a cat person at heart. I would consider myself an animal person through and through. My significant other also has a huge heart for animals. Our three pets are the center of most of what we do. I work in office Monday to Thursday each week. I am off each Friday and am available most weekends. My significant other, Brandon, is my partner in this and he works from home all week. Your pet would have his company and care while I work in office! We live in a spacious, two bedroom apartment. There are sidewalks and a paved walking path near our apartment that we frequent. We are also discovering local parks! Our complex offers a fenced dog park. I feel exercise is highly importantly for furry friends. Our apartment is clean and quiet. We give dog treats to Rylee (our dog) often. Our pets receive lots of love and yours can expect this too! We have two cats in our apartment too - Maggie and Frankie. Frankie loves dogs with her whole heart and Maggie typically keeps her distance while we pet sit.
About: I've been caring for animals since I was in middle school. Since then, I've become a dog trainer and can provide care for a wide variety of dogs, including dogs with additional care needs. I'm an AKC evaluator and I spend my free time competing with my dogs in a variety of sports! I take special care and pride in the animals I care for. I have 3.5 acres for your pet to romp around throughout the day (while supervised of course). I work hybrid so I spend 50% of business days working from home. On the weekends, I don't have to go in-office. My entire life revolves around my dogs and adding your pet into our routine will be an easy transition! I have a 3.5 acre yard and 5 of my own dogs. I keep client dogs separate from my personal dogs and other client dogs unless discussed and agreed upon beforehand so you know your pup is safe. All of my dogs are friendly and play together easily.
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.
