“Sean and Melissa were great! 😊 Loved the picture updates while we were gone. It was so wonderful knowing that all three of our dogs were so well taken care of and were able to enjoy our vacation with peace of mind!”
“We had an amazing first time experience with these sitters watching our two French bulldogs. From the start, communication was excellent, they kept us updated with frequent messages and lots of pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our dogs were very well cared for and happy. Our French bulldogs are not quite a year old yet, so they still have some of the challenges that come with being puppies, but the sitters were wonderful with them. They seemed completely comfortable and relaxed, and it was obvious they were treated like part of the family. We would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for caring, trustworthy, and communicative sitters. We have already rebooked with them to ensure that they have room to watch them again!”
“This was the second time Jenny and her family have watched my boy and I’m just as impressed the first time they watched him! I will continue to use Jenny whenever I need a sitter!!”
“Sarah and family took such great care of my boys. I was nervous about leaving them, but everyone pitched in to make sure they felt well loved and cared for. It was a great experience.”
“Derek was very thoughtful and had great communication! He was very flexible and accommodating when our flight was delayed and we had to pick up later than anticipated. Our pups were well cared for.”
“Jania and her family took excellent care of our Ragnar! She sent plenty of pictures and gave updates on his play and interactions with her dogs. Her home was warm and welcoming, very clean without a lot of stuff that a curious dog could get into. This was our first experience using an in home boarding and we will definitely be using Jania when we go on vacation again.”
“Over the top! My Labrador retriever is extraordinarily affectionate with people but can be recalcitrant when first introduced to new dogs. They had him completely socialized. Only downside is he may like them more than me now.”
“We were not disappointed. Bethany and her family gave our husky great care while we were away. We got frequent updates and pictures. It gave us a lot of comfort knowing our dog was in good hands while we were traveling. My 4 year old loved seeing the pictures of what Koda was doing that day. Would book again!!!”
“They were so amazing and we felt great about our dog bud while we were getting married on vacation. We got a picture(s) or video every day and an update. They were super good at communication and I think bud was able to learn social skills while there! He came back exhausted and slept the whole day. Def would book again when we take a vacation sometime. Def worth the 30 min drive from our house!”
“Ryleigh was great. She's a genuine animal lover. She boarded my kitty for a week and everything went smoothly. She sent photo updates, which was greatly appreciated since I was pretty nervous about sending my cat off to be boarded for the first time. I will definitely reach out and have her board my cat again if the situation arises. Thanks Ryleigh!”
“Michael, Lindsey and family were wonderful! We were hesitant to leave our less than 5 month old rescue with anyone but had this trip booked long before he landed with us. They sent so many pictures and it was obvious our little Fig was so loved in our absence. We will definitely use this family again! It made traveling much less stressful for us. Thank you!”
“Infinity is amazing!!! She took great care of my pup and was very attentive. She was also communicative and sent me updates everyday which I really appreciated. Pup got lots of love and came back home tired. We will definitely be using again!”
“Nathan is fantastic! He sent pictures and videos throughout and my pup seemed to have a blast! He went to a dog bar, played with neighborhood kids and even helped with yard work.”
“Ashley and Kyle watched our miniature poodle in their apartment overnight and we couldn’t be more pleased. He’s an energetic dog, but they kept him busy. They had toys for him to play with, took him on walks, and he loved playing with their dog. They also sent us several pics to let us know how he was doing. They even provided a small bag of dog treats to take home and wrote a very nice, thoughtful thank you card which they put in the bag with our dog’s stuff. We would be delighted for them to watch our pup again, and we highly recommend them to anyone else looking for someone to watch their dog.”

“We have a complicated cat ecosystem in our home, including a strong-willed cat who needs daily medication, a sensitive cat who needs focused attention, and a wily, wary young cat. Kirsten is reliable, flexible, and a great communicator. Each of our cats was well cared for while we were away, and the updates we received were clear and crafted with care.”
“Wr needed a dog/house sitter for a last minute trip. I didn't want just anyone, either. Ibqas so worried our dogs were just going to be let out 3-4 times a day, and not get any play time. That was not the case when I got on here and found Ashlee. She was simply amazing! She sent me pictures of our dogs multiple times a day, was always checking in with me. Our dogs usually have separation anxiety and they seemed to do just fine with her! She walked our dogs multiple times, spoiled the with treats, played with them outside for a while! We were very blessed to have found Ashlee. We liked her so much we booked her again when we went to a concert, and we have her potentially booked for our vacation in February! She is a fantastic dog/house sitter. Thanks again, Ashlee! ?”
“Maria was amazing. I never questioned if my fur babies were taken care of while we were away. She went above and beyond for us. Thank you for your help!! Izzy and Felix appreciate everything you did and so do we”
“Highly reliable. Was great with my dogs, you can tell she loves animals. She gave great communication and feedback of how my dogs were doing. I would highly recommend her and I will be using her again in the future.”
“Liliana did a great job of taking care of my cats: cleaning their litter boxes, giving them fresh water in clean bowls every day, and I know the cats appreciated the food and attention. She’s a caring and trustworthy person. So grateful.”
“Macy took great care of Samira and communicated well with me on a last minute trip even though it was the first time she had worked with us. Pics and vids were sent as promised. She was accommodating with her own work schedule to make sure Samira was taken care of. Thank you so much, Macy.”

“Marikita was an absolutely perfect sitter in every way! She sent amazing updates and was very detailed on what had happened throughout the day, which I loved! And she was so sweet with my cat Steinway, it felt like she was part of the family. Thanks so much, Marikita!!”
“Alyssa is very reliable, on time, and took wonderful care of my cat, Oggy. I really appreciated the updates with photos and notes, it made me feel so much more relaxed while I was away. When I got home, my cat was happy and comfortable. I would definitely book with her again.”
“This was our second booking with Kristin and it went great again! This trip she checked in on our senior cat and everything went well, she sent pictures to us every time she was at the house. We will definitely continue to book with Kristin as long as she's available.”

About: I worked at an animal shelter and animal hospital for 5 years while in college and I have been pet sitting since the age of 17. As a pet owner myself I know how important it is to know that you have left your fur babies in good hands, you'll never have to worry about your pets while they're in my care. If you are to request my services you will have peace of mind that your pets will be well taken care of while you're away. I currently have open availability until approximately mid October including weekends and holidays. I'm available for overnight house sitting and walks/potty breaks throughout the day.

About: Hello friends! I am currently working part-time delivering babies at Bryan East, and looking for some extra part-time income doing something I love-hanging out with your fur babies. I personally had many dogs growing up, and my sweet Rikki girl passed away last year. So, I’m looking to help some other folks take care of their pups. I am an outdoor enthusiast- I love to hike, backpack on tough trails, bike, run races, swim, etc. I’m interested in boarding at our home, or pop-in visits. It would be no problem for me to walk your animals or take them to potty outside in any weather condition. My schedule at work is 12-hour shifts, and changes from week to week. So, I'm pretty flexible if you need me. Just contact me and we can definitely work something out. Looking forward to cuddling and loving your animals!
About: Hi! I’m Natalie, and I’m a huge animal lover who would love the opportunity to care for your pets! I’m responsible, patient, and treat every animal like they’re my own. I also have my own Goldendoodle, Willow, who absolutely loves making new furry friends! She is very playful, gentle, and friendly and would be so excited to have a buddy to hang out with. Because Willow would be around during stays, I do ask that your dog is comfortable and friendly with other dogs. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, give them lots of love and attention, and send pictures and updates so you can feel comfortable knowing they’re in good hands! 🐾🤍 I work as a CNA, but I have a flexible schedule because I’m able to sign up for shorter shifts that work around my availability. I’m very intentional about making sure I have plenty of time to care for pets, which allows me to come home and let dogs out for potty breaks, take them on walks, give them lots of attention, and spend time hanging out with them. I want to make sure every pet gets the care, exercise, and companionship they need while their owners are away. 🐾 When your pet is staying with me, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved just like they’re at home. I’ll keep them on their normal routine as much as possible, including meals, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of cuddles. Since I have a flexible work schedule, I’m able to make time throughout the day to let them outside and give them attention rather than leaving them alone for long periods. My Goldendoodle, Willow, is also very friendly and loves having other dogs around, so your pup will have a fun little friend to keep them company! 🐾🤍

“My dog Louie had the absolute best time at doggie daycare with Melissa and her family. She was so spoiled and I received updates and photos throughout the day. I felt so safe leaving Louie and I know how loved she was. I would highly recommend Melissa! Thank you for taking such great care of my baby!”

“Nathan accepted Lincoln for a last minute daycare and was very flexible to our plans! He kept me updated on how Lincoln was doing and also sent some pictures. I can’t wait to schedule again, definitely recommend!”
“Shelby's day with Gretchen was perfect! Because of a previous Meet & Greet experience, Shelby was most excited to see Gretchen and her dog Bella. The dogs got along famously, and Gretchen provided a couple of pictures of the dogs sharing their day together which made me most confident that this was the perfect choice for Shelby! An added bonus was that she lives close to me, so it was most convenient to deliver and pick up my dog. I highly recommend Gretchen who is very conscientious and dedicated to animal care.”
“My dog Daisy was well taken care of and had a great time with Staci. She sent photos and provided updates. I couldn't have asked for a safer and more fun place for Daisy to spend time.”

“Alayna and her accommodations for our dog couldn’t have been more perfect! Her sweetness and enthusiasm for the dogs is genuine. We will definitely use her services again and recommend her to everyone!!🥰🐾♥️”
“Maizy came home a happy dog. She was happy to see me at he end of the day but seemed happy to hang out a while longer too. She met new friends, played hard, and came home with tired paws. I think Stacy, Pearl, and Fred are beloved friends now.”
“Kara was wonderful. Ace was very well taken care of while our moving truck was being unloaded. I really appreciated her communication especially with the video and pictures. I will definitely be reaching out to her again.”
About: We live on an acreage. Plenty of space to run, play or chill! We have 2 very sweet dogs that we spoil every day. Every dog has its own personality and we love figuring out what we think they are saying and at times we give them voices/accents/languages. Would a poodle say “hey dude what’s up”. They may here. 😆 Dogs are woven into every part of our day. We keep them with us or they have a fenced yard and decks to nap on. We have 2 very sweet dogs and very spoiled. Our dogs come when they’re called or they hear the magic word. We don’t crate/kennel our dogs but will yours if you prefer, especially puppies not potty trained.
“Infinity was wonderful to work with! It was clear immediately that she cared for my pup and made sure she was comfortable in her home. She provided regular updates and photos and even gave my pup a bath after play time ended in the mud 🤦🏻♀️ I am so thankful our first pet sitting experience with this dog was with Infinity!”
About: We recently said goodbye to our German Shepherd, who we had the joy of taking care of for the last 13 years. We are comfortable with all ages and sizes of dogs.

I’m very intentional about making sure I have plenty of time to care for pets, which allows me to come home and let dogs out for potty breaks, take them on walks, give them lots of attention, and spend time hanging out with them. I want to make sure every pet gets the care, exercise, and companionship they need while their owners are away. 🐾 When your pet is staying with me, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved just like they’re at home. I’ll keep them on their normal routine as much as possible, including meals, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of cuddles. Since I have a flexible work schedule, I’m able to make time throughout the day to let them outside and give them attention rather than leaving them alone for long periods. My Goldendoodle, Willow, is also very friendly and loves having other dogs around, so your pup will have a fun little friend to keep them company! 🐾🤍
About: Hello friends! I am currently working part-time delivering babies at Bryan East, and looking for some extra part-time income doing something I love-hanging out with your fur babies. I personally had many dogs growing up, and my sweet Rikki girl passed away last year. So, I’m looking to help some other folks take care of their pups. I am an outdoor enthusiast- I love to hike, backpack on tough trails, bike, run races, swim, etc. I’m interested in boarding at our home, or pop-in visits. It would be no problem for me to walk your animals or take them to potty outside in any weather condition. My schedule at work is 12-hour shifts, and changes from week to week. So, I'm pretty flexible if you need me. Just contact me and we can definitely work something out. Looking forward to cuddling and loving your animals!

“Sean and Melissa were great! 😊 Loved the picture updates while we were gone. It was so wonderful knowing that all three of our dogs were so well taken care of and were able to enjoy our vacation with peace of mind!”
“We had an amazing first time experience with these sitters watching our two French bulldogs. From the start, communication was excellent, they kept us updated with frequent messages and lots of pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our dogs were very well cared for and happy. Our French bulldogs are not quite a year old yet, so they still have some of the challenges that come with being puppies, but the sitters were wonderful with them. They seemed completely comfortable and relaxed, and it was obvious they were treated like part of the family. We would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for caring, trustworthy, and communicative sitters. We have already rebooked with them to ensure that they have room to watch them again!”
“This was the second time Jenny and her family have watched my boy and I’m just as impressed the first time they watched him! I will continue to use Jenny whenever I need a sitter!!”
“Sarah and family took such great care of my boys. I was nervous about leaving them, but everyone pitched in to make sure they felt well loved and cared for. It was a great experience.”
“Derek was very thoughtful and had great communication! He was very flexible and accommodating when our flight was delayed and we had to pick up later than anticipated. Our pups were well cared for.”
“Jordan and Jon are the perfect pet sitters! We left our dog in their care for a week. They were amazing with sending photos or brief updates of how she was doing in our absence. They have a great back yard for the dogs to run and play or just enjoy the sounds of nature. As Rover sitters, we were especially pleased at their interest of learning our pets routine to have her feel most at home in our absence. Jordan and Jon are amazing and definitely the best of my "Rover" people we have used.”
“Over the top! My Labrador retriever is extraordinarily affectionate with people but can be recalcitrant when first introduced to new dogs. They had him completely socialized. Only downside is he may like them more than me now.”
“We were not disappointed. Bethany and her family gave our husky great care while we were away. We got frequent updates and pictures. It gave us a lot of comfort knowing our dog was in good hands while we were traveling. My 4 year old loved seeing the pictures of what Koda was doing that day. Would book again!!!”
“They were so amazing and we felt great about our dog bud while we were getting married on vacation. We got a picture(s) or video every day and an update. They were super good at communication and I think bud was able to learn social skills while there! He came back exhausted and slept the whole day. Def would book again when we take a vacation sometime. Def worth the 30 min drive from our house!”
“Ryleigh was great. She's a genuine animal lover. She boarded my kitty for a week and everything went smoothly. She sent photo updates, which was greatly appreciated since I was pretty nervous about sending my cat off to be boarded for the first time. I will definitely reach out and have her board my cat again if the situation arises. Thanks Ryleigh!”
“Michael, Lindsey and family were wonderful! We were hesitant to leave our less than 5 month old rescue with anyone but had this trip booked long before he landed with us. They sent so many pictures and it was obvious our little Fig was so loved in our absence. We will definitely use this family again! It made traveling much less stressful for us. Thank you!”
“Infinity is amazing!!! She took great care of my pup and was very attentive. She was also communicative and sent me updates everyday which I really appreciated. Pup got lots of love and came back home tired. We will definitely be using again!”
“Nathan is fantastic! He sent pictures and videos throughout and my pup seemed to have a blast! He went to a dog bar, played with neighborhood kids and even helped with yard work.”
About: I have had dogs since I was a child. Anything from Dachshunds to Great Danes. I have been through formal training with a good amount of my dogs. I am the pack leader. I love cuddles and often all dogs can be found sitting close to me. I would love a rescue someday. I work from home and am able to take the dogs out often throughout the day. Our dogs sleep with me on their mats in my bedroom. I can feed and water them as much as needed. I watch them often, listen for que’s and or energy change. I am the pack leader, so they know Mama is in charge. I make sure water is full at all times, feed them as needed, give lots of loves and other care such as baths, cleaning ears, etc.

I am available for boarding and drop in visits Friday after 5:00 pm and on weekends through Sunday. I can arrange for early morning pickup on Monday if needed.
