Personalized care for your dog or cat - Dobson

Highly-rated overnight sitters - Dobson

About: As a first responder, I’m very comfortable around K9s and understand the importance of patience, consistency, awareness, and responsible handling around animals. I also have two dogs of my own, Millie, a Vizsla, and Aksel, a German Shepherd. I’ve had Millie her entire life, and Aksel came to us as a rescue about a year ago. When we first brought Aksel home, he needed extra patience, structure, and training, and we’ve worked with him consistently to help him become the happy, well-tempered dog he is today. I genuinely love dogs and enjoy spending time with them, working with them, and helping them learn. I work as a first responder, so my schedule is different from a traditional Monday–Friday schedule. I have set days off that allow me to offer pet care, and I primarily schedule boarding on my days off so I can give your pet plenty of attention and supervision. I also offer dog walking and drop-in visits when my schedule allows. I keep my availability updated and am happy to communicate ahead of time to make sure your pet’s needs fit my schedule. I have a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely get outside for exercise and play. I have two dogs of my own, a Vizsla and a German Shepherd, who are part of my household. Before boarding, I’m happy to discuss your dog’s temperament, comfort level, and how they do around other dogs. I can use indoor movable pet gates/kennels to safely separate dogs when needed, whether for feeding, rest, or simply giving them their own space. I always prioritize safety and will follow your pet’s normal routine, feeding instructions, and any special care needs.
“The sitters did an amazing job. They communicated regularly with photos to update us on our dogs well being. Our dogs got a little anxious being away for the first time with someone new and one of them stayed out in the living room all night to help them calm down.”

“So happy to have found Andrea to take care of Vernie for an overnight! She was so kind and understanding of his puppy energy. He is thoroughly exhausted from all the play! Happy to know we have someone we can trust when we head out of town!”


“Kayla was amazing and very easy to work with! My doggies had a room for themselves and a nice fenced in yard to play! Came back home very happy! Thanks Kayla for working with us!”

“Talia and Austin are the kindest people around and our dog is so well taken care of. Our dog has so much fun while she is at their house and returns exhausted which is all that we can ask for!”

“Morgan took great care of our dog while we went out of town for the weekend. She was available on short notice and very flexible with timing. Our pup had a great time!”

“Xariyah blew me away!!! I was so nervous about leaving my baby because I just moved here and he's used to only my family watching him, but I had no other option than to find him a sitter. Xariyah will be his family from now on though because we will definitely be a regular! She treated my baby as if he was her own and he had such an amazing time with her and her kitty. She sent me constant updates and pictures and reassured me after he had a rough first day with anxiety away from me and he was back to his normal self by the next day. I'm beyond happy that I chose her and will definitely be using her again! ❤️❤️❤️ Thank you so much Xariyah!”

About: I have a black cat of my own, Binx, who I’ve had for about three years. I’m comfortable with the everyday care cats need, including feeding, fresh water, litter box care, playtime, and giving them plenty of attention and affection. I understand that cats have very individual personalities—some are social and playful while others need more time and space to warm up. I’m patient and respectful of their boundaries and would make sure your cat feels safe and comfortable while in my care.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Dobson
“Suzanne did a professional and wonderful job! I felt entirely comfortable leaving my lab, Harley with her. She did an exceptional job and I most definitely would have her care my my best friend again! She is a five star plus!!!”

“Taylor was great! She was accommodating last minute when I needed someone to watch Remi. I was so nervous to leave my dog with someone for the first time ever but Taylor sent me a picture and updates throughout the day. I would definitely recommend her to anyone who needs someone to take care of their dog :) thanks again Taylor!”

About: I’ve been a vet tech for about 6 years. Before that, I managed a pet boarding facility. I grew up on a farm, so I’ve been caring for dogs and cats all my life. I’m a toddler mom, and I currently work as an emergency vet tech so I’m great at keeping calm in stressful situations. I’m a stay-at-home mom during the week, and then I work on Saturdays, so I’m pretty flexible with my schedule! I will have to bring my 3-yr-old with me to any visits on a weekday if it’s before 4 pm, but he is very gentle and knows to go slow around animals. When I’m caring for a pet, I always play with them and make sure they get quality interaction with me. I also check over their physical appearance to make sure they’re healthy and safe. As a vet tech, I’m very concerned with pets’ health and wellbeing.
“Morgan and her family were absolutely AMAZING to my sweet pup! You can really tell that she (along with her children) really just love to care for animals. I was very satisfied with everything, my pup had two days of “day care” when my work schedule was extremely busy & my pup was so excited to go back the next day and see her family. Thank you again Morgan!”

About: I have prior experience in taking care of all different types of animals for many years. I have had puppies, kittens, rabbits, hamsters, smaller lizards, small and large animals, along with elderly dogs and cats. I also have experience in sick animals and giving medicine to them along with special diets. I would watch friends and families animals as I grew up and have learned over the years animals are my passion. I am currently enrolled in a veterinarian technician program to further my education in animal care. I am available at any point to watch your precious babies. I currently have open availability for whatever need may arise or for anything you may need I would care for your babies as I would for mine with all the love and attention they could possibly want. They would either be in a fenced in yard or on a leash for outside time and monitored while they are inside with plenty of snuggles and attention.
About: I have spent my whole life around dogs. From a young child to current day, I've always had a pet in my life. I have cared for outdoor dogs, indoor dogs, fish, and snakes. I've also cared for and been around most ages of dogs from 8 week puppies to elderly companions. I love spending time outdoors with them, sunshine, snow, pools, treks, mud, or wherever. My two kids are in school so I'll have plenty of time for your pet. My kids are comfortable around pets so even after school, I'm still available for care. I'm also available to board any day or night of the week. I'm close to parks and Pilot Mountain trails. I have plenty of backyard space for you pet to run and even a ramp entrance for pets with mobile difficulties. I have a backyard space for healthy walking/running. I have plenty of toys to keep your pet active and cushions for relaxing. I have a crate available if needed. I also have a dog of my own to keep your pet company. My dog is allowed on all the furniture in the house and yours is welcome to join in for cuddles.
About: I have personal experience of caring for dogs through dog sitting for friends and fellow church members. I also have experience cat sitting as well. I enjoy both small and large dogs. I grew up with our family Great Danes. I also lived with family after college that owned three medium to large dogs. I personally participated in the care and well being of those dogs. This included walking, feeding, bathing, and grooming. Mostly my goal is to be able to be around pets again. I miss being around and caring for animals. I am excited to be a part of caring for someone's fury friend. I understand that your pet is part of the family. Peace of mind that your pet is being well taken care of when you are not around is a precious thing to have. I am currently offering drop in visits and dog walking only, as my home is not currently equipped for me to have animals boarded over night.

About: My home is where I tell people "they have me trained well". I love all animals and believe they deserve the best of treatment as they give to us so unconditionally. Any animal in our household is taken care of as they are our children. Our older dog was raised to be kind to smaller animals and seems to think anything smaller than him is his to take care of. We taught this by stroking gently and telling him to "be nice" this is just a "baby". Animals are never hit or disciplined by any harsh means, we reinforce good behavior. Our dogs get brushed every night around 7:00 and remind us if we miss the time and we treat them to a small snack every evening around 8:30 which they know also.
