“Rachael & John sent photos everyday. Ruby played with their dog and seemed to completely enjoy herself. Their home is clean and welcoming. What I especially liked was that they are home most of the day so Ruby was only crated at night. Could not have had a better experience in leaving our dog with Rachael & John!”
“Bridget was very good with my dachshund over the weekend. I rarely board lady. But Bridget made her feel very comfortable and happy. Lady even enjoyed her roommates as well. I liked that she didn't have to stay in a kennel the whole stay. She got to go out and stretch her legs and play with her roommates while there.”
“Another great boarding experience with Nicole and her family. My two dogs just love staying with her. She makes me feel so comfortable because I know my dogs are in great care while I am away.”
“We feel comfortable leaving Zion when we travel for more than one or two days. We've even left him over a week's time leaving the country knowing that he's always in good hands with his second family.”
“Second time using MacKenzie and the dogs again came home happy! Love that she has the option for drop off / pick up! Love that we have found a trusted professional to watch our girls when we travel! One less thing to stress about!”
“I have a 12 year old maltipoo and a 4 year old long hair chihuahua.Derrika is a blessing for me because she treats you fur baby like he is her own. She is very loving, caring and patient. I would recommend her to anyone.”
“Sharon and Mike loved my babies like they were their very own!! They sent pictures and updates daily, which made me feel so much better about leaving them for our trip. One of our puppies is very anxious and she instantly bonded with Mike (and even snuggled him every night!!). We will definitely use them for our future boarding needs. Cannot recommend them enough!”
“I had a family member pass away and needed a place for my dog to stay very last minute. Naji was quick to accommodate my dog, Willow, and made sure I had pictures and updates in a stressful time. It was super rainy while we were gone, but Willow still had a fun time! She even got a bath from Naji! I have a vacation planned for July and plan on using Naji again because she’s so good with my baby.”
“My baby had an awesome time! Jacqueline‘s family with her Children is amazing on how they nurture the dogs! I love that they have a fenced in yard and they do not kennel which gave my baby a free spirit for two days that I was gone! Jacqueline was so amazing and keeping me updated with pictures and notes about my baby boy brownie Jacqueline will be my first choice if I need a sitter for brownie in the future!”
“Lona and Alan were great with my 110 lb St Bernard mix Ralph, and I have nothing but the nicest things to say about how they treated him. I received pictures throughout the entire week and felt like I was right there with him. I knew that he was in good hands at all times!”
“This was our first time ever leaving our dog with someone. Actually, it was his first time staying with anyone at all, so we were very anxious and worried about him—we really care about him like our own child. That’s why it was so important for us to find someone responsible. When I saw Olga’s profile and read her reviews, I immediately felt like she was the right person for us. They are very friendly and gave us such a warm welcome. She did everything to help Tyson feel comfortable, especially since he was very nervous at first. Olga always kept us updated, sent photos, and responded to my messages every time. I’m truly very grateful to her for taking such great care of Tyson. We will definitely be reaching out again.”
“Still 5/5, as she has been in the past. We had our wedding weekend and needed no stress in regards to who is watching our dog, and Paula easily fit that. Sent us pictures which made the bride happy!”
“We were happy to have found Shawn. He made sure that we and our dog were comfortable before the stay. He was proactive in asking about our preferences to take care of our dog, as well as her likes/dislikes. Throughout the stay he provided updates, was responsive, and was flexible for drop off and pickup. Our dog was at ease with him when she hasn’t been with other caretakers. We would happily choose him again.”
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was just 7 years old. My passion is caring for others. I know how to work with dogs with emotional and behavioral issues. I know how to handle dogs even big dogs that pull on the leash. I can help keep training consistent. I run a home daycare and help care for my mom and homeschool my autistic 16 yo son. So I have a lot of time, room and love to give your doggies. I do have a dog and 2 cats of my own that don't get along so I have to switch out their living room social time and will ensure your animals has some social time as well. I am able to care for 3 more dogs at a time. I have a large basement with an unfinished room that I put a baby gate up for the door and I have 2 kennels. If I have 3 dogs at once I will rotate the dogs out to make sure that one does not have to stay in a kennel too long. I will ensure your doggy always has food and water available and frequent bathroom breaks with plenty of love and social time. I have a semi big yard with a 20 foot tie down lead to ensure your dog has enough room to run around but won't get away. I also have a small plastic kiddie pool I fill up for the doggies to get in and enjoy!
“Our pup seemed to have an amazing time staying with April and her family! I got frequent updates with pics and was so happy Tucker was able to spend the weekend in a home with another dog and kiddos so he wasn’t too bummed to be away from home. Highly recommend! ?”
“Our dog had a great time while we were away! She was well taken care of and we received pictures each day of her enjoying the children and household. We will book again with Chloe.”
“Amanda and her family took great care of my Remi. She sent pictures and updates twice a day and Remi always looked happy and having fun. I would definitely recommend her for anyone looking for great care of their dogs. We will be definitely using her again!”

“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!!”
“Watched my two cats for three days while I was on vacation. They’re usually pretty shy with new people but they loved her! Will definitely be asking her to watch them again in the future.”
About: Hello fellow cat lovers, First let’s be real, when you have a cat, you don’t own them, you are their servant. My four cats remind me everyday. As soon as 5:30 am hits, they all let me know it’s feeding time. As soon as I walk through the door. I have 4 seconds to drop my stuff and feed them, or I will be yelled at. I can’t afford another negative yelp review for taking more than 4 seconds. But jokes aside I care deeply about the well being of my cats. I’m checking teeth, their coats, paw pads, check for any changes in poops, or behavior. My cats eat a well balanced diet and have different dietary needs. I also take care of one community cat. She comes and sleeps on my back deck, brings me dead mice (my favorite) and always wants to be pet. That is my everyday with cats and I love every minute of it. I would love to get to know your cats and gain their trust!
“Gabrielle went above and beyond to make sure that my three cats were happy and comfortable while I was gone. I will definitely call on her again to care for my furry family.”
“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.”
“Draven was fantastic with our Goldendoodle during her drop-in visits. Her communication was on point, and she even noticed that we had accidentally locked our cat in the bedroom. Thankfully, she let him out and made sure everything was okay. We’re so grateful for the care she gave our sweet boy. Highly recommend Draven to anyone needing drop-in care for their pets!”
About: I’ve been an avid animal lover ever since I can remember. Rest assured, you fur-baby is in good hands with me. Animals are my passion; working with them is a bonus! I work from home, & my availability is fairly open. I can also be pretty flexible to accommodate different schedules, making things a little more stress-free! In my home, my fur-baby is treated just as a human would be. She’s very well trained, so I don’t use any methods of locking her up when I leave. She is free to roam! I will do what you prefer and what accommodates your lifestyle.
“Milo didn’t want to come home! He meowed at me all the way home and even quite awhile after we got home. He obviously bonded with Jessica and enjoyed having full play of her home. So grateful!”
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 have experience working at a doggy daycare that also boarded cats, where caring for the feline guests quickly became my favorite part of the job. I enjoyed engaging cats through play, enrichment, and individualized attention while ensuring they felt comfortable and secure during their stay. I am confident in reading feline body language and understand the importance of respecting each cat's unique personality and boundaries. As a cat owner myself, I am passionate about providing reliable, attentive care and treating every cat as if they were my own.
About: Shhhhh don't tell the doggos, but I've always had a soft spot for the felines! I often feel like cats get ignored or dismissed in the pet industry, and that upsets me greatly! I've never met a kitty I didn't insta-ADORE, so if you're a cat-person and you've been having trouble finding a cat-person to watch your kitties, I am definitely your gal! I've had cats of my own since our apartment would allow pets, and we currently have 3 at our rural household. I know every cat has their own personality, and every cat deserves to be approached and treated according to that personality. Cats are not aloof... they are discerning!!
“Lucas was great! Our shy pup offered a small kiss right away. We got wonderful updates and pictures with each visit and he was always on time. We will be using Lucas again, for sure.”
“Cheyenne was so great!! Our cat was so comfy here and got lots of love and attention! Cheyenne is a super kind human and sent us regular updates, including videos and pictures, which really made us feel so much better about leaving our sweet boy for a couple weeks! He was well taken care of and got all the scratchies and cuddles he wanted!”

About: I’ve had a passion for animals my whole life. It’s turned into a lively career of dog training, grooming and boarding. I specialize in training service dogs as well as aggressive and special needs dogs. I am also pet CPR and first aid certified, so your pet is always in the safest and best of hands with me. 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.

Training sessions are held in multiple locations for the best training results.
“What a relief...so glad we had Gabby. Was happy not worry about my furbaby while out of town!! Gabby was a excellent pet sitter for my cat-She fed and comforted him until we returned. Followed all requests and instructions...will definately have her watch over him each time we leave town!”
About: I’ve had a cat since I can remember. My first cat Christopher looked like a Halloween cat all sleek black and skinny. I remember begging my parents to keep him. Since him I’ve had and fostered several over the years. I used to take care of my friends mean old Russian blue whenever her family went out of town and he never bothered me. Just had to know him and what he would do. I’m not scared of any of them and love hearing their happy purrs.
“Best cat sitter ever!! Our cats were well cared for while we were gone. Kylie sent pictures every day and several updates. Our cats were happy when we returned home. I highly recommend her!”

“My babies absolutely love going to doggy daycare at Sharon and Mike's! They always come home exhausted and happy. If you have small dogs, do yourself (and your pocketbook) a favor and use Sharon for daycare and boarding instead of an expensive pet resort or vet!”
“Jacqueline was amazing! She accommodated our very last minute booking and gave great care to Bella. Jacqueline communicated well with us and made my first Rover experience awesome! We will definitely utilize Jacqueline again!”
“Derrika is FANTASTIC!!! She and her family are so incredibly friendly, kind and warm hearted. On the first day that Yogi (my doggo) was there he warmed up immediately - this was so easy for him as he knows & trusts great people. I got several lovely pictures - one of which was Yogi on her couch resting his head on her son’s legs. Yogi doesn’t do this unless he is very chill. You & your doggo will be grateful that you found her!!”
“Got it! Here's the updated version: It was our dog's first time staying in another place, and he's usually a bit anxious. But he had a really good time with Stevie and came back tired and happy. We're very grateful!”
“My husband and I felt so comfortable leaving our pup with Rocio! She provided tons of pictures and communicates throughout the day if needed. Will definitely be rebooking in the near future. Thanks again. :)”

About: I've been training and taking care of dogs for 33 years. I had a couple childhood pets then when I was 18 I adopted and trained a dog that stayed with my family for 15 years. I also had a Labrador who made it to 13 and my current old man puppy is 13. I've been with my husband for 20 years. We LOVE dogs of all ages and sizes. I'm a stay at home mom to my geriatric dog. We get up around 6am, go outside for a bit, come in and get breakfast, then lounge while I clean. Lunchtime we go out again, have healthy snacks like carrots, then play in the fenced in yard or the living room depending on weather and temperature. Late afternoon and evening we wind down and get ready for dinner. I have a fenced in yard, a friendly old dog, tiled floors, comfortable furniture that they're allowed on, and air vents that come from the floors (dogs love to lay on them). There is security on my home and absolutely nobody but delivery people come here during the day.

“Ashley is great! Our dog, Arlo, is a 75lb, 8 month old puppy and while he is the goofiest, most loving guy...he can also be a pain in the butt sometimes. Ashley handled Arlo (and our home) with great care. She is reliable and has great communication. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone needing a trustworthy and loving dog walker!”

I care for pets as if they were my own. I pay close attention to their individual routines, personalities, and needs, whether they’re in my home or a client’s home.

I have a large fenced yard and 3 of my own rescue fur babies that get along with other dogs fabulously. I can do drop in visits at your home also.

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.

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.

My goal is always to create a safe, calm, and loving environment while keeping the owner’s home just as they left it.

I care for an animal like it were my own, with unconditional love, cuddles, kisses, hugs and the over all wellness of the animal(s) in my care.
About: I’ve also had guinea pigs and rabbits and birds and goats. I love all animals and am happy to care for them no matter what shape or size. They all deserve love and attention and as long as I have solid instructions then I got it covered and they’ll feel like they’re my own babies. I’m currently unemployed. I’m getting certified to sell insurance and am home. I have two children in pre school and elementary school and the extra money would help a lot in this transitional period. I can happily come to your home and give your animals all the love they need. I’m in an apartment so coming to my home isn’t available currently but I can do check-ins or extended stays at your home depending on what you need.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs my entire life. My family frequently took in rescue pitbulls, so from a young age I learned how to train even the most stubborn animals. I began pet sitting for family/friends as a teenager. Many of the animals I took care of during this time were seniors, so I got quite a bit of experience in senior dog care. During college, I brought home a very energetic and very stubborn Cane Corso. I hired a professional trainer and learned many important tips on top of my already existing knowledge about dog training, which came in handy when I got a second corso. Throughout my life I’ve gained experience training puppies, taking care of senior pets, and caring for pets with diabetes and other chronic conditions. I’m currently PRN at my other job, so I can work my other job completely around the needs of your pet and what they’ll need while in my care. I have a fenced in yard and two bigger pups that are incredibly friendly and love having new dogs to play with. I also have a two year old daughter who is obsessed with animals, so needless to say your pet will not be spared any attention while in our home. Even if you’re not looking to board your pup, I have full availability to take care of your pet in the comfort of their own environment, and am willing to stop by as often as needed to make sure your pup gets all the care and attention needed while you’re away.
About: I’m extremely patient and caring with each dog or other pets I take care of. I’ve helped friends & family over the years with their own! Pets are an important part of the family and should be treated as such. I work part time currently so my schedule is very flexible and negotiable to spend time with your pets. I make sure to prioritize care so you can rest assured your pups are getting all the love and care they need! I always talk with whoever pets I’m taking care of about their routines at home and what is the environment their most comfortable with. Even with fenced in yards I’ll stand outside and make sure everything is ok while also giving dogs company.
About: i've lived and cared for all kinds of dogs and cats. young, old, small, and big, it doesn't matter, the critter will be loved and cared for no matter what i currently don't have any other job so i am most normally always available to help take care of your fur baby's!! and more than happy to do just so. i take very great care of all four pets in my home. they all get fed a certain amount of food and proper exercise along side some enrichment fun time!
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’ve been an avid animal lover ever since I can remember. Rest assured, you fur-baby is in good hands with me. Animals are my passion; working with them is a bonus! I work from home, & my availability is fairly open. I can also be pretty flexible to accommodate different schedules, making things a little more stress-free! In my home, my fur-baby is treated just as a human would be. She’s very well trained, so I don’t use any methods of locking her up when I leave. She is free to roam! I will do what you prefer and what accommodates your lifestyle.
About: I’ve been experienced in the veterinary medicine field for about 2 years, working as a receptionist and also a kennel technician taking care of pets.

I pride myself on being dependable, communicative, and attentive to each dog's unique needs. I understand every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I always make it a priority to follow instructions closely including, feeding schedules, medications(if needed), and any special preferences. In a clients home I focus to keep pets comfortable by maintaining their normal routine and giving them plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and affection.
About: I’ve always had dogs growing up and I had my own for 7 years. I miss him dearly and would love to be able to give part time lovins to others for now until I find another to call my own!

About: I love caring for cats and dogs and getting to know their distinct personalities and needs. In addition to pet sitting I have three beautiful rescue pets of my own - a gray tabby cat and two beautiful great danes. I am experienced, reliable, and excited to care for your pet just as I would my own! I teach a few days a week but I usually work remotely and have the flexibility and availability for drop-ins during the work day and evenings. 🌞🌛 I am not looking to care for pets in my own home, having recently adopted a kitten who is not yet fixed. However, I am prepared to care for your pet in your home/yard and would be sure to respect any boundaries or guidelines you set so you and your pet feel comfortable and safe. 🐶😺
About: I work in nursing and I love animals just as I love people I’ve been taking care of animals often on for the past six years. I’ve been in nursing for 10. I love spending time with animals especially my fur babies. I work overnights two days a week in a hospital, so I’m very flexible. It helps because I make my own schedule and I have my schedule out in advance. i also love going on trial walks and dog parks to let the fur babies run off that energy and have fun . I try to stick to a routine and keep them on schedule, of course show them love and affection as well. I keep them safe by being aware of my surroundings, and just interacting with them
About: I am blessed with a sweet boy of my own and have had dogs in the house growing up. I have always had a natural touch with animals. For instance, my neighbor has a Saint Bernard who is not sure of humans in general but especially human males, however this dog becomes a giant puppy when I come around. I am a full time student doing school online so pet care can be done anytime in the mornings and afternoons and on any day except for Sundays. I have a fenced in yard at home, though I keep a watchful eye on my dog when he is outside. While inside, I keep anything that might catch his eye out of reach, and make sure he is always properly entertained. This happens to be easy for my dog since he loves antlers to chew on.
About: As an ER vet med worker, I understand that pets deserve to be treated with care and compassion. I have worked in the field for over 4 years and have experience with an array of behaviors and sizes. I own a german shepherd who is quite reactive, so I have special interests in caring for reactive and hard to handle pets. I do german style training with my own dog, and love to focus on obedience training. I am comfortable giving a variety of medications as needed and providing the best care for your fur babies. I work at an emergency veterinary hospital, so I do pet sitting on the side. I am familiar with the different lifestyle needs for each pet and willing to accommodate and provide:) Being a veterinary worker and student, I am very knowledgeable on pet care, illnesses, and many other aspects. I have cared for many pets in critical situations. I have a true passion for ensuring the best care for pets- physically and mentally!
About: I’ve grown up with always having a pack of all different size dogs all ages my whole life I have a strong love for animals I love being around animals, I’m a daycare teacher normally but animals always have my heart.

“Rachael & John sent photos everyday. Ruby played with their dog and seemed to completely enjoy herself. Their home is clean and welcoming. What I especially liked was that they are home most of the day so Ruby was only crated at night. Could not have had a better experience in leaving our dog with Rachael & John!”
“Another great boarding experience with Nicole and her family. My two dogs just love staying with her. She makes me feel so comfortable because I know my dogs are in great care while I am away.”
“Second time using MacKenzie and the dogs again came home happy! Love that she has the option for drop off / pick up! Love that we have found a trusted professional to watch our girls when we travel! One less thing to stress about!”
“I had a family member pass away and needed a place for my dog to stay very last minute. Naji was quick to accommodate my dog, Willow, and made sure I had pictures and updates in a stressful time. It was super rainy while we were gone, but Willow still had a fun time! She even got a bath from Naji! I have a vacation planned for July and plan on using Naji again because she’s so good with my baby.”
“My baby had an awesome time! Jacqueline‘s family with her Children is amazing on how they nurture the dogs! I love that they have a fenced in yard and they do not kennel which gave my baby a free spirit for two days that I was gone! Jacqueline was so amazing and keeping me updated with pictures and notes about my baby boy brownie Jacqueline will be my first choice if I need a sitter for brownie in the future!”
“Lona and Alan were great with my 110 lb St Bernard mix Ralph, and I have nothing but the nicest things to say about how they treated him. I received pictures throughout the entire week and felt like I was right there with him. I knew that he was in good hands at all times!”
“This was our first time ever leaving our dog with someone. Actually, it was his first time staying with anyone at all, so we were very anxious and worried about him—we really care about him like our own child. That’s why it was so important for us to find someone responsible. When I saw Olga’s profile and read her reviews, I immediately felt like she was the right person for us. They are very friendly and gave us such a warm welcome. She did everything to help Tyson feel comfortable, especially since he was very nervous at first. Olga always kept us updated, sent photos, and responded to my messages every time. I’m truly very grateful to her for taking such great care of Tyson. We will definitely be reaching out again.”
“Still 5/5, as she has been in the past. We had our wedding weekend and needed no stress in regards to who is watching our dog, and Paula easily fit that. Sent us pictures which made the bride happy!”
“We were happy to have found Shawn. He made sure that we and our dog were comfortable before the stay. He was proactive in asking about our preferences to take care of our dog, as well as her likes/dislikes. Throughout the stay he provided updates, was responsive, and was flexible for drop off and pickup. Our dog was at ease with him when she hasn’t been with other caretakers. We would happily choose him again.”
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was just 7 years old. My passion is caring for others. I know how to work with dogs with emotional and behavioral issues. I know how to handle dogs even big dogs that pull on the leash. I can help keep training consistent. I run a home daycare and help care for my mom and homeschool my autistic 16 yo son. So I have a lot of time, room and love to give your doggies. I do have a dog and 2 cats of my own that don't get along so I have to switch out their living room social time and will ensure your animals has some social time as well. I am able to care for 3 more dogs at a time. I have a large basement with an unfinished room that I put a baby gate up for the door and I have 2 kennels. If I have 3 dogs at once I will rotate the dogs out to make sure that one does not have to stay in a kennel too long. I will ensure your doggy always has food and water available and frequent bathroom breaks with plenty of love and social time. I have a semi big yard with a 20 foot tie down lead to ensure your dog has enough room to run around but won't get away. I also have a small plastic kiddie pool I fill up for the doggies to get in and enjoy!
“Our pup seemed to have an amazing time staying with April and her family! I got frequent updates with pics and was so happy Tucker was able to spend the weekend in a home with another dog and kiddos so he wasn’t too bummed to be away from home. Highly recommend! ?”
“Our dog had a great time while we were away! She was well taken care of and we received pictures each day of her enjoying the children and household. We will book again with Chloe.”
“Amanda and her family took great care of my Remi. She sent pictures and updates twice a day and Remi always looked happy and having fun. I would definitely recommend her for anyone looking for great care of their dogs. We will be definitely using her again!”
“Left my two Great Danes with Brittany for Xmas holidays, and they came back happy and tired, just like a dog should be. She sent me pictures everyday and communicated efficiently with me to coordinate drop off and pick up. Loved the Xmas tree picture from them! Thanks for not turning away from caring for giant breed dogs, I truly appreciate and thank you for it.”
“Mackenzie was absolutely fantastic especially being patient with me while figuring out the app will definitely use again pups had an amazing time with her and her family.”
“Shannon is awesome. She took great care of my older goldendoodle, and he was able to use her doggie door which was a huge plus. She walked him every morning and sent regular updates. I hope to use her next time I’m out of town if she’s available.”
