“We had another great experience with our dog spending a long weekend with this family! It is clear how much love they put into caring for all dogs and ensuring we felt comfortable with the setup too. Our dog had a fantastic time here, her own little vacation!”

“Meghan was awesome, she took great care of my dog and kept me updated throughout the stay, she's also a great photographer so you'd get nice shots of your pets, a 100% recommended.”

“Christine and Matthew are wonderful! Great communication and very accommodating. Ollie is always a little nervous when I first leave him somewhere new, but he couldn’t have been more happy and calm when I picked him up. Will definitely try to book with them again in the future. Highly recommend”

“Jenna and her husband were great. They worked around my crazy schedule to get my pup out there, and we're more than accommodating when I asked to pick him up early because I missed him! The house was a nice space and well kept, and the yard was a super nice large space for the boys to rhomp. They were both really friendly and great with my pup, making my feel as ease to leave him with them. And their pup and mine got along really well, so that was a bonus that he had a buddy for the week! It was also really nice that I got pictures all week of the boys playing and chilling together. All around excellent experience, I can't say enough good things to say how pleased I was with everything. I would certainly look Jenna up again to sit for my pup! Thank you!!”

“Kiera took such wonderful care of my senior guy! I dropped him off at her home while I moved into my new place and I had such peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. Kiera sent me pics and videos of Chico playing and out on walks with her sweet senior girl! I will definitely bring Chico back to Kiera’s in the future.”

“Jaclyn has been absolutely amazing with my pup! My pup has stayed with her many times and e erytime has been a great experience. Whether it's a last minute request or way in advance, Jaclyn has always been responsive. She is the best and my go-to sitter 😊”

“I couldn’t be more grateful for the incredible care our dog received during our wedding. The sitter did a fabulous job! Not only did they provide a safe and comfortable environment for our pup, but they also kept us updated frequently with pictures and messages. It really helped ease our minds on such an important day. Highly recommend for anyone looking for trustworthy, loving care for their furry friends”

“Debbie was amazing! She was in constant contact with us, and proved regular updates and photos of our Zac playing and having a blast. Super caring and very sweet, she provided a fun and loving environment for Zac that a normal kennel could not match. I would absolutly reccomend her again, and will be setting up future play dates for Zac and Freya. Thank you Debbie!”

“Nina was a lifesaver! She was able to schedule a meet and greet, and book our dog for the weekend with short notice. She was very communicative. We received updates, and pictures, which was so appreciated. Our dog seemed very content during his stay with Nina. We are looking forward to using her again!”


“Cassidy saved my life with a last minute booking for a 6 day boarding for my 2 year old Dutch Shepherd, Maple! I received pictures and videos daily, which my family and I enjoyed throughly. I was so relieved to find a trustworthy person and facility that did more than just feed and walk my dog twice each day. Cassidy’s expertise and experience with Dutch Shepherds was also a huge plus, given how high energy Dutch Shepherds are known to be. I will definitely be booking again in the future! Thanks Cassidy!”

“We had a last minute change of plans for our other sitter12 hrs before we left for out of state…. I have never used this app and of course was nervous about this whole process. I can not recommend emalee enough. She had great communication + took great care of our house / fur babies. I was so at peace knowing she was the one taking care of things at home.”

“Amy is awesome! My two dogs are really anxious around new people and that makes me anxious, but because of how calm and capable Amy is, everything went really well! She did drop-in visits 4 days in a row while my husband was working and while I was out of town. She sent me TONS of pictures and updates which was great! My dogs warmed up to her very quickly and by the end of the 4 days I think they thought she was a member of the family! When she took them for a walk, one of my dogs got muddy and she cleaned her up for us. I'm so glad we found Amy and I can't wait to use her when we go out of town at the end of this month! :)”

About: Hi everyone I’m Jaclyn! I have always been a huge animal lover and grew up always having multiple pets in my home. I am available 7 days a week 24 hours a day for around the clock care. I am home full time so you never have to worry about your dog being left alone or locked up in a cage and they will have my full attention. Your fur babies are always welcome on the couch in my home and will always be treated like they are apart of the family. Like I mentioned before, I am a huge animal lover and have experience with small, medium, large and giant breed dogs! I also have experience with caring for dogs with special needs including epilepsy and diabetes. Your pets will always be in the best care and I strive to make their stay a safe, fun and loving experience. Their health and safety is always my main concern and my top priority! I prioritize a clean and safe environment. I work from home so your pet will have constant care around the clock! I am available for same day care if needed and have a very flexible schedule. I am also available on the weekends or evenings for walks. Health and safety is my main priority when your pet is in my care. I have a large yard and a spacious home to make your pets stay comfortable! I am home full time and am available around the clock. Same day bookings are accepted and I always try my best to have a flexible schedule. The health and safety of your pet is always a main concern of mine. I try my best to make your pets stay comfortable and they are always welcome to hangout on the couch with me and have access to a majority of the home. If a dog prefers to have their own space I do also have a secluded gated area that is ideal for dogs who need some time to themselves. I always prioritize keeping my home a safe and clean environment for all of the animals under my care!
About: I have had many dogs over the years and have trained and cared for all ages and stages. I have experience with reactive dogs, resource guarding, post surgery care, wound care, and medication. I have medic training and am not squeamish when it comes to wounds or illnesses. Public meet ups take place at Ryder park in Dewitt or Canal Landing in Fayetteville. When requesting please provide date and times you are free to meet. I do not offer tours of my home. After a public meet up I can arrange a tour of the yard if needed. This is for safety of dogs and people. Taking a break from the 9-5 job and staying home hanging with the dogs. Have availability to take on a few more dogs due to the passing of my current clients pets. Dogs are unique with their own needs and boundaries. I have a fully fenced back yard that dogs can access using a doggy door. Each dog (or family if siblings want to be together) are booked into their own room that is set up for their specific needs. The dogs gets to decompress and given whatever space they need to be happy and relaxed. I have crates of every size if the dog needs one. I do not crate unless there is a safety concern. Dogs have free reign of the house and yard as long as I am home. If I am not home the dogs are in their rooms which are video monitored (maximum of ~4 hours). The rooms are closed off with gates so dogs have open view of hallways. I use TV or music to create background noise. Dogs do not interact without supervision and any dog introduction is done slowly and never forced. The house is large enough that should a conflict arise the dogs can be placed in separate levels of the house and not interact. When dogs stay with me I see them as my dogs and treat them as family.
“Once again Katelynn did an update excellent job caring for Baxter. This was my first time with Daycare service through River and Katelynn kept Baxter for 7 hours and he loved every minute. I’d highly recommend her services”
About: I grew up with dogs and recently owned 2 rescued dogs. I have land around my home and access to a wooded area with trails for longer walks. I am comfortable with caring for dogs in any facet. I am a teacher and I am looking for summer work. I am free every day until late August. I am willing to walk your dog in your neighborhood or board a dog over night. I have a stake in my yard for when my daughter visits with her 35 lb. Dog. Previous bigger dogs were walked on a leash at all times. I usually walk my dogs 1-2x daily for up to a 1/2 hour.

“Christalle is the best! She watched my pup during the work day and was so attentive to him. He had so many walks and play sessions and was truly tired at the end of the day… which is hard to do with such a high energy little guy. She was patient with my schedule and clearly loves animals.”

“Staci was a great! She has excellent communication, and updated me with plenty of pictures. I felt very safe allowing her in my home to pick up and drop off my Ace. She has a lot of experience and I was confident my dog was in good care with her. I highly recommend Staci.”

“Erix was so sweet and took Artemis in on such short notice!! He did a great job grooming her and she had a blast! Highly recommend and will absolutely be using his services again!”

“I’ve brought my dog Shifu to Irina for day care twice now, and she’s been wonderful! She’s very responsive, kind, and clearly cares about the dogs she looks after. Shifu came home happy and relaxed both times. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”

“Deborah and her daughter were amazing with my dog, Rudy! I got a lot of updates during the day, which I loved. It is such a relief knowing when your fur baby is in good hands, and you definitely get that here! They will 100% be my go-to sitters. Thank you Deborah!!”

“Susan kept in touch with me on my dog's first day care try. My dog did not get along with the other dog, so she kept them separated until I could get there to pick my dog up. Susan was very patient with him and kept him company. The problem was my dog and I will contact her again for a solo stay.”

“Susan looked after my dog Gainsley for a week while I was on vacation. I can not say enough good things about how well Susan took care of Gainsley while I was away. My dog is a rescue dog and very hesitant to attach herself with adults that she does not know. Susan understood Gainsley s needs completely. Susan regularly sent me pictures to constantly reassure me that Gainsley was happy. I can not thank her enough.”

About: Your pets will be well taken care of under my supervision. I love to run and walk so your dog will have lots of exercise. I am willing to give medications if needed, I have experience from working at ASPCA. I also love to groom and give baths so your dog will never come home dirty, and nails can be trimmed as needed. Animals are my main priority, and I am currently apprenticing to become a full-time groomer. So this is exceptional experience for my resume. My clients shouldn't have any doubt that their pup/fur baby is not taken care of, and I will only be a phone call away if needed. I have a very flexible schedule, and will always put my clients and their animals first. I currently have an open schedule and a house to care for your pets if needed. I'm available anytime and would love to take the time to care for your fur babies! I have a yard with a long runner for pets that need the extra running space. I also provide long walks and minimal training and grooming. I have 6 years experience grooming dogs.
About: (Saying up front that I am not comfortable using a prong collar, so if that’s something you use on your dog, I don’t believe I’m a right fit for the service you want. Please don’t invite me to your home and surprise me with a prong collar—I will not use it on your dog.) Now here’s my bio: No dog deserves the kennel! Why settle for the pound when they can spend a night in a home with an owner-on-loan; either in your house on in a house that has raised two other pets from puppyhood to old age? Admittedly, there are stairs and hardwood floors in my house, but I have bought several carpets for my old dog to move around on and can lay them down for your dog’s convenience. We also have a big backyard that your dog will love to run around in (and no predators, unless you count woodchucks and geese) and a long leash that can go all the way to the end of the property line. I love dogs and after a day with me, your furry friend will mistake me for his mother. I’m most busy Wednesdays-Thursdays, so I marked them out on the calendar, but if petsitting is required for several days, that is easy to accommodate! I also don’t mind waking up every few hours to take a dog out—I have not quite reached the age where sleep is important. I won’t allow your dog to roam around outside unleashed (sorry, but I don’t want to lose them!), but when they’re outside, I’ll make sure they have the freedom to run around to their heart’s content. Additionally, I’m willing to walk them in any weather they’ll put up with and even let them sleep on the couch/spare bed, if they’re not too dirty.

About: For many years, I aided my aunt who owns her own dog grooming salon, keeping the dogs occupied and bathing them! I have also taken care of many friends and family members dogs, even cats! I had two dogs, two Guinea pigs, and recently just adopted a cat! I volunteer weekly at a bunny farm cleaning their cages and spending time with them. I enjoy all animals and being a difference in their lives! I currently have a full time job, typically work week hours, with some overtime so I will need to work around that! Available weekends and late night!! I have a park nearby and am familiar with safe areas for dog walking! I think it is important to listen to the client and will do everything I can to ensure your pets safety and help you feel at ease knowing they are in good hands! Every client is different and I respect each and every boundary.
“Gunner enjoyed his stay and we felt relieved with him in Diana’s care. Very lovely young lady with best interest of pups in mind. Would use her again. She was awesome with last minute request. Thank you!!”

“John is an excellent dog walker and care taker! Having someone come by my place that I trust is a huge relief. Even in warmer weather Benny still got outside and got great exercise. Thanks so much John!”

About: Hi! I have taken care of my friend’s dogs for 8 years, while they’re out of town or just at work, from puppies to adults, and it’s a lot of fun! I work full time with a food delivery service, but I’m all over town all day and can be super flexible on when I need to take breaks As far as safety goes, I always walk dogs on a leash, and treat them with the same love and care as if they’re my own. I am happy to follow care instructions for any clients

“Christine and Matthew are wonderful! Great communication and very accommodating. Ollie is always a little nervous when I first leave him somewhere new, but he couldn’t have been more happy and calm when I picked him up. Will definitely try to book with them again in the future. Highly recommend”

“Jenna and her husband were great. They worked around my crazy schedule to get my pup out there, and we're more than accommodating when I asked to pick him up early because I missed him! The house was a nice space and well kept, and the yard was a super nice large space for the boys to rhomp. They were both really friendly and great with my pup, making my feel as ease to leave him with them. And their pup and mine got along really well, so that was a bonus that he had a buddy for the week! It was also really nice that I got pictures all week of the boys playing and chilling together. All around excellent experience, I can't say enough good things to say how pleased I was with everything. I would certainly look Jenna up again to sit for my pup! Thank you!!”

“Kiera took such wonderful care of my senior guy! I dropped him off at her home while I moved into my new place and I had such peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. Kiera sent me pics and videos of Chico playing and out on walks with her sweet senior girl! I will definitely bring Chico back to Kiera’s in the future.”

“Jaclyn has been absolutely amazing with my pup! My pup has stayed with her many times and e erytime has been a great experience. Whether it's a last minute request or way in advance, Jaclyn has always been responsive. She is the best and my go-to sitter 😊”

“I couldn’t be more grateful for the incredible care our dog received during our wedding. The sitter did a fabulous job! Not only did they provide a safe and comfortable environment for our pup, but they also kept us updated frequently with pictures and messages. It really helped ease our minds on such an important day. Highly recommend for anyone looking for trustworthy, loving care for their furry friends”

“Megan and her family took such great care of our pup, Remy. We got consistent and meaningful updates on how Remy was doing during the 9 day booking. It was very evident she was treated like family the entire time. We will definitely be booking with Megan again!”


“Cassidy saved my life with a last minute booking for a 6 day boarding for my 2 year old Dutch Shepherd, Maple! I received pictures and videos daily, which my family and I enjoyed throughly. I was so relieved to find a trustworthy person and facility that did more than just feed and walk my dog twice each day. Cassidy’s expertise and experience with Dutch Shepherds was also a huge plus, given how high energy Dutch Shepherds are known to be. I will definitely be booking again in the future! Thanks Cassidy!”

“Irina was wonderful! She made us so comfortable, inviting us over before our trip, so our Ollie could meet her and her family. She sent daily messages, including pictures and a video, so we knew our baby was in good hands. I would definitely recommend Irina, and we will definitely use her again! ”
“Sam was incredibly patient with Zena! Zena was triggered by the fireworks, Sam communicated everyday with me about helping Zena to regulate her emotions, she helped soothe her, provide Zena with the space she needed to calm down. I appreciate the picture and video and feed back on how to help Zena once we pick her up. Zena was well cared for, had her own clean room to roam in and a large hard to play in all this helped reduce my anxiety about leaving her. Over all Sam was knowledge about dog breeds and understands how to work with strong-willed shibas. Definitely recommend.”

“Jose was great! Attentive, communicative, and active with my pups! Walked them, let them run around the fenced in yard, and lots of pics of them lounging on the couch :) would 100% book again!”

“Erix was awesome. It was our first time leaving our dog alone with someone he is unfamiliar with but Erix made him feel right at home. He is very privy, prompt, send pics and updates. Will definitely recommend and use his services moving forward.”

“Kara took excellent care of our Maisy dog. While we were out of town, she sent updates and pictures of Maisy's stay with her. Kara was also very gracious by accommodating our work schedules with flexible drop off and pick up times. We would not hesitate to have Maisy stay with her again in the future.”
