“Outlaw and Lola were well taken care of and had a great staycation. They made me feel at ease and treated the pups like family. Thanks for that. It’s important to me and the only way I can enjoy my time off. We will be back.”
“Stevie was EXCELLENT & we're excited about using her again. We came home from our overnight vacation feeling relaxed & inspired and our little dog Baby did too. After spending time with Stevie she was so chill, none of her usual anxiety & the socialization with other people & dogs was a real plus for our Baby. Much appreciate the info & tips Stevie shared to help improve Babys well being & health.”
“We were very happy with Bridget as she watch all three of our pups. We found her very loving and attentive as well as organized to handle her clients’ dogs. She has a great setup for dog sitting with a fenced backyard and provides crates for each of her guest pups. We highly recommend her!!”
“I used to be so anxious finding a place for my guy to go to when I’m out of town. He has a personality, and can be reactive in certain situations. I knew this was a possibility adopting a dog though. Knowing he’s in the best hands MacKenzie gives me so much peace when I need to leave since she has experience with training reactive dogs. He LOVES going, knows exactly where we are when we get close, and cannot get away from me fast enough after I open the car door. We love it here and will be booking another stay soon!”
“Great communication, one of my dogs is quirky and she was very patient with him. She has a beautiful large fenced in yard for animals to run around and play. They had a wonderful time staying the week.”
“Daine & Ashley went above and beyond when they had my 11 month old pup! I got picture updates frequently and he had a blast playing in their yard and with their two adorable dogs!! Thank you SO much!! I would recommend 100%!!”
“Olga took excellent care of my boy Finnick and took the initiative to help me with some training as well since he is just puppy still. She provided excellent tips for better training since I'm fairly uneducated when it comes to training a puppy.”
“Chloe took great care of amber while we were away. I think amber and her dog played all day every day. I would use Chloe again when we go out of town. Thanks Rover and Chloe. Don”
“I had never boarded my dog before, and Saige made the process seamless. I had many questions and had to change a few timelines at last minute and she was very patient with me! My Great Pyrenees chewed a little sore on her paw and Saige tended to it which I very much appreciated. I enjoyed getting and reports of how Willow was doing. I will use Saige again! Thank you!”
“Damonte is incredibly kind, reliable, and generous with Kuba and Ashanti. He always keeps us informed by sending updates and videos, which gives us great peace of mind while we’re away. Our dogs absolutely love him and treat him like family. We are so grateful for the care and attention he provides, and he will always be our go-to pet care provider. Thank you, Damonte, for taking such wonderful care of our furry family members! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Highly recommended!”
“Dewayne was amazing. I had a last minute booking and he made it super easy. Sent pictures and updates, and Benny was very clearly happy. It was great to have my mind at ease while 3 hours away. I will 100% be booking again.”
“Nicole was wonderful! She provided excellent communication throughout our trip and sent photos, which gave me great peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our dog was well cared for, and having fun. In fact, when he came home, he cried because he missed his new friends and the environment he had grown so attached to. We couldn’t ask for a better indication of how happy and comfortable he was in her care. Highly recommend!”
“Chloe was awesome with my pup Angus. She provided excellent services and communication throughout the sitting period. I will definitely be using her for future sittings! Thank you Chloe!”
“Our Remi had the best time with Sylveena and her family. We received so many pictures, updates and notes throughout the days we were gone, it was so appreciated. She even kept a mindful watch over her time outside due to the intense heat we’re experiencing. It’s obvious that Sylveena loves animals and we are so happy to have found her!”
“Daisy had a great time staying with Brittany, Max and their family. It’s obvious they love dogs and know how to welcome new pets to their home. Loved getting pics everyday too. Much thanks!”
“Cassie and Ben take such good care of our dog. It's obvious he is well cared for, given lots of attention and love. We highly recommend them.”

“Ashley was wonderful with my cats! Even with one of them hiding the whole time, she tried her best to find him and still give him the care he needed. I will 100% recommend her to anyone who needs a pet sitter and will be using her services again when I need them!”
“It was great to be able to take a vacation and not worry about our beloved furball kitty. Tiffany was able to get a very timid Bella to let her pet and play with her, which is unusual. Tiffany also did a few other jobs for me which was so appreciated. I will definitely book her again for our next adventure...thanks Tiffany!!”
“Kathleen went above and beyond to make sure she gave my cat his injections. He was difficult but she was a trooper and got the job done. I very much appreciate all her hard work. I would highly recommend her.”

Haven't cat sat but once, but I have dog sat and watching over other animals. I grew up in a household with different pets, from cats and dogs to farm animals and wildlife.
“Jessica was great. Our cat gets lonely while we are away. Jessica plays with our active 2 year old and gives him lots of love. She does what you ask her to do. Definitely will use her again. Getting the pictures helps you know that everything is ok.”
“We had a great experience with Emma checking in on our sweet cat! We greatly appreciated the updates and the photos. We could tell our cat was in good hands! We would definitely recommend and would happily have her watch our cat again!”
About: I've worked in animal rescue for many years and fostered both cats and dogs for over 15. So even the spicy ones I adore and they seem to connect with me as well. I am comfortable giving meds, doing brushing/nail trims for those that will cooperate, and giving them lots of love and attention! For work, I set my schedule for the most part, so I am very flexible and can come by in the daytime and or evenings. Very adaptable and willing to work out a schedule that works for you!
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since 2018 and have hands-on experience working at two professional dog boarding facilities. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels, including feeding, supervising playtime, letting dogs out, and spending time with them in the yard. Outside of my professional experience, I’ve also cared for dogs in my own home for friends, family, and others. I truly enjoy getting to know each dog’s personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while they’re away from their family. With years of experience around dogs, I’m comfortable caring for everything from energetic pups who want to play to dogs who prefer a little extra patience and attention. My goal is always to treat every dog like they’re part of my own family. 🐾 I have a flexible schedule and can work pet care into my daily routine. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, throughout the week. I’m happy to work with each pet’s individual routine and make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and care while you’re away. Because I provide care in your home, my priority is keeping your pets safe, comfortable, and on their normal routine. I have over 8 years of hands-on dog care experience and have worked in two professional boarding facilities with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I’ll follow your instructions closely, treat your home with respect, and give your pets the same patience, attention, and care I would want for my own.

About: I’ve been around cats for many years and have experience caring for them through every stage of life, from young kittens to senior cats. I currently have an adult cat and a kitten, Sunnie, and I’m familiar with kitten care, feeding schedules, nail trims, litter box maintenance, playtime, and helping cats feel comfortable in their environment. I’ve also cared for cats with medical needs, including administering medications and monitoring their health, so I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and paying attention to the little details. In addition to caring for my own cats, I have taken care of many friends kitties while they’re away. I truly love getting to know each cat’s unique personality and always strive to make them feel safe, relaxed, and loved while their owners are away. I understand that every cat is different and I always respect boundaries.
“Saige was a fantastic sitter! She communicated well and was very kind and timely. My cats were very well taken care of and I felt very comfortable leaving them in her hands, especially because they seemed to like her right off the bat which is not normal for them! We will definitely be using her again!”
About: I have been a cat owner for 13 years. I apoted my black Maine coon Blade from wayside waifs when he was a tiny 8 week old kitten. With having a long hair cat I know how important it is to brush them out and keep their litter box clean. We play with lots of toys and his favorite toy is the Lazer pointer. I am currently a stay at home mom so I have plenty of time to spend time with your baby/babies.
“Gabby took such good care of my three cats while I was gone. They were comfortable and happy. Well, except for Boo, who is never happy. 😂 I will definitely call her again. She is a treasure!”

“Sophie had a fun day playing with Sprout and was well taken care of while I was away. She came home exhausted, and for me a tired pup is a happy one. :) Thank you for all the photos and vids Kathleen! Hope Sophie gets to visit and play again soon!”
“My pups were tuckered out from the good time they had over at Stevie’s house today! She and her mom were very gracious and helpful! We will be using her services again!”
“Shawn is amazing with my dog Riley. Riley can be very anxious around new people, but she took to Shawn very quickly. He was helpful and patient throughout the whole process, from the meet and greet through the first daycare session. He sent me photos and updates throughout the day to let me know she was doing well. She was very happy when I picked her up! As long as Shawn is dog sitting, he will be in my go-to dog sitter!”
“Gail was very personable and knowledgeable about animal behavior. She handled my dogs with great care and they felt very comfortable with her. I would not hesitate to utilize her services again.”

About: I have a stay at home job where my hours are very flexible. I do have visits with clients that can last 1-3 hours but if I know that I’m caring for your dog I will do my very best to not schedule two visits in a day! I will spend lots of quality time with your dog and make sure it is getting more than enough love and care that it needs! I work in social work, so I usually have 2-3 visits per week that last between 1-3 hours. Other than that, and the other activities I spend my time doing, I will give your dog so much love when I am home! I am rarely ever gone for more than 3 hours at a time. I am available any day of the week on a normal week. I live at an apartment complex, but we are only on the second floor, have a good amount of space, and our complex even has a dog park!

About: Moonbabies Little Lodge offers boutique home boarding designed especially for small dogs who enjoy a calm household environment. Your dog will stay in a cozy home setting with a small resident pack of friendly toy-breed dogs and plenty of supervised outdoor playtime in our secure backyard play yard. Our yard features enrichment areas just for small dogs, including ramps, tunnels, lounging spots, and shaded cabana areas where pups can relax between play sessions. In warm weather we even bring out a splash pad for dogs who enjoy cooling off. Inside the home, dogs are part of the family during the day and sleep comfortably in their own individual night pens with beds and toys for a peaceful evening routine. Because this is a small home environment, we typically host only 2–3 guest dogs at a time, allowing us to give each dog plenty of attention and supervision. This setup works best for dogs who: • are under about 20 lbs • are comfortable around other small dogs • are house trained • can relax calmly in a pen or crate if needed A meet-and-greet is required before first bookings to ensure everyone is a good fit. We look forward to welcoming your pup to Moonbabies Little Lodge — where little dogs have big fun. Caring for dogs is already part of my everyday life! Guest dogs join our calm daily small-dog household routine with supervised backyard playtime, indoor relaxation, naps, cuddles, and social interaction throughout the day. I keep my guest list intentionally small so each dog receives close supervision and personal attention in a comfortable home environment. Moonbabies Little Lodge is designed specifically for friendly small dogs. Dogs enjoy supervised play in a secure fenced backyard and are introduced gradually to maintain a calm group dynamic. Guest dogs are monitored closely and separated if needed for rest, meals, or quiet time. Overnight, dogs sleep safely in cozy individual pens with their own bedding, food, and water.

My entire life is taking care of animals, mine as well as others. My world revolves around these amazing creatures, so I always have time for them. Boarding dogs are held at my home for a personalized and comfortable experience. I also offer drop ins for the pets that prefer just to be checked up on at home. Training sessions are held in multiple locations for the best training results.

About: Hello there! I'm so glad you found my profile! I am a life-long animal lover who has been drawing horses since I could hold a crayon, and I've been caring for all kinds of animals since I was a child. We had rabbits, guinea pigs, mice, cats, dogs, and horses at various times while I was growing up, and my childhood dream was to have lots of cats and lots of horses some day. Well I currently have 3 cats and 1 horse, so that's something! Haha. We also have two ducks and are planning to get more shortly. We've had as many as 5 at a time in the past. I've had pets of my own since my college days, and not surprisingly after having so many animals in my life, I ended up getting my degree in Animal Science! I also volunteered at the local Humane Society walking dogs while in college, and cared for pigs, poultry, horses, cows, and more rodents throughout my education. I also worked at a doggy daycare and boarding kennel for a time after college. These days my animal care is mostly directed at my own pets, but you can never have enough animals in your life in my opinion, and so here I am, ready to spoil your fur babies for you if you need! I currently work from home 3 days a week and am lucky enough to have a pretty flexible schedule during those days as well. That means I can take the time now and then to drop in and check on your pets for you if you need some extra help while you're away! Whenever I drop-in on your pets, I will stick to the routines you already have established for them at home to minimize any stress, so your pet will hardly be able to tell you're gone! But I will also definitely take the time to give them plenty of pets and play-time too, if that's something they would love! ^_^
About: I’ve been around dogs for the past 6 years and absolutely love spending time with them. I’m patient, friendly, and always do my best to make sure each dog feels comfortable and cared for. I understand what dogs need, whether it’s playtime, a good walk, or just some quiet company. Every pup is different, and I make sure to treat each one with the attention and love they deserve. Taking care of animals is just part of my everyday life. I’ve got a handful of dogs at home, and they’re all very different, some full of energy, some more laid-back. My day usually starts and ends with walks, feeding, and playtime, and in between I’m checking in on how everyone’s doing. I’m used to balancing different routines and personalities, so giving each pet what they need just comes naturally. My older dog needs a little extra help, so I take time to help with potty breaks and sometimes hand-feed when needed. I make sure he’s comfortable and not rushed. My younger dogs are more active, so we go on walks, play outside, and spend time burning off that energy. I try to keep things balanced—making sure everyone gets the attention, care, and patience they need. Each of my dogs is different, and I’ve learned to adjust to what makes them happiest and most comfortable.
About: I have a genuine love for animals and take great pride in providing reliable, caring pet-sitting services. Having grown up on a farm, I gained hands-on experience with a wide range of animals, from household pets to livestock. This background has taught me responsibility, patience, and how to care for animals of all kinds. I treat every pet as if it were my own, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I attend school online, which gives me a very flexible schedule. This allows me to travel for pet-sitting jobs and even stay overnight when needed, as long as there’s Wi-Fi so I can keep up with my classes. Since I’m currently applying for more jobs, my availability is open and adaptable, making it easy for me to provide consistent, reliable care for pets whenever I’m needed. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I make sure to follow their usual routines as closely as possible so the pets feel comfortable and secure. I provide regular feeding, fresh water, playtime, and plenty of affection. I also take time to clean up after them, whether that’s refreshing litter boxes, wiping paws, or tidying up their spaces. If I’m staying overnight, I make sure the home stays neat and the pets get extra attention and companionship. My goal is always to create a safe, calm, and loving environment while keeping the owner’s home just as they left it.
About: I have had cats and dogs pretty much all of my life whenever my family is gone. I am the one who babysits and walks them. I can even put diapers on a dog that is going through heat if need be lol! I am working part time, but for the most part I am very flexible and will be ready if you need to reach out to me for any pet sitting or dog walking. For the pets in my home, I usually always take her on walks morning, noon and night to make sure all of their potty requirements are good making sure they have food and water through all hours of the day.

“Outlaw and Lola were well taken care of and had a great staycation. They made me feel at ease and treated the pups like family. Thanks for that. It’s important to me and the only way I can enjoy my time off. We will be back.”
“Stevie was EXCELLENT & we're excited about using her again. We came home from our overnight vacation feeling relaxed & inspired and our little dog Baby did too. After spending time with Stevie she was so chill, none of her usual anxiety & the socialization with other people & dogs was a real plus for our Baby. Much appreciate the info & tips Stevie shared to help improve Babys well being & health.”
“I used to be so anxious finding a place for my guy to go to when I’m out of town. He has a personality, and can be reactive in certain situations. I knew this was a possibility adopting a dog though. Knowing he’s in the best hands MacKenzie gives me so much peace when I need to leave since she has experience with training reactive dogs. He LOVES going, knows exactly where we are when we get close, and cannot get away from me fast enough after I open the car door. We love it here and will be booking another stay soon!”
“Nicole & Gary were wonderful!!!! Our pets hadn't been boarded in several years and are now seniors. We wanted them to be boarded together. Nicole went out of her way to alleviate our pets anxiousness. She sent pics several times per day and kept us updated with anything out of the ordinary. I would recommend them highly, especially if you are unsure about leaving your animals. We will definitely book with them in the future if we need to.”
“Olga took excellent care of my boy Finnick and took the initiative to help me with some training as well since he is just puppy still. She provided excellent tips for better training since I'm fairly uneducated when it comes to training a puppy.”
“Chloe took great care of amber while we were away. I think amber and her dog played all day every day. I would use Chloe again when we go out of town. Thanks Rover and Chloe. Don”
“I had never boarded my dog before, and Saige made the process seamless. I had many questions and had to change a few timelines at last minute and she was very patient with me! My Great Pyrenees chewed a little sore on her paw and Saige tended to it which I very much appreciated. I enjoyed getting and reports of how Willow was doing. I will use Saige again! Thank you!”
“Achilles has stayed with Cathy before, so we felt comfortable leaving him with her. She treats the dogs in her care as if they were her own. This was a longer stay, but she kept us up-to-date with texts and photos. She had another dog staying at the same time, and they made friends, which I think helped a lot. It certainly made us feel better. We will definitely book with Cathy in the future when we need to.”
“Dewayne was amazing. I had a last minute booking and he made it super easy. Sent pictures and updates, and Benny was very clearly happy. It was great to have my mind at ease while 3 hours away. I will 100% be booking again.”
“Christine was fantastic with our dog and communicated very well with frequent updates and availability. She was also gracious when we had to extend the pickup time. Highly recommend!”
“Chloe was awesome with my pup Angus. She provided excellent services and communication throughout the sitting period. I will definitely be using her for future sittings! Thank you Chloe!”
“Taylor took great care of Gizmo! Taylor sent regular updates keeping us posted on how well he was doing. Gizmo really enjoyed his time there and felt like a part of the family. We highly recommend Taylor!”

We have a 3 year old female Great Dane who is a big baby and loves to play with other dogs and gets along with cats. We have a cat who is a lover. If we need to go to a persons home we will be very respectful of their home and wishes.
“Our Remi had the best time with Sylveena and her family. We received so many pictures, updates and notes throughout the days we were gone, it was so appreciated. She even kept a mindful watch over her time outside due to the intense heat we’re experiencing. It’s obvious that Sylveena loves animals and we are so happy to have found her!”
“Lona and Alan took such great care of my Goldendoodle! They were very kind, stayed in touch with regular updates and pictures, and were super responsive anytime I checked in. I felt completely at ease knowing my pup was in good hands. Highly recommend them!”
