About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of experience caring for pets of all personalities, ages, and needs. As a proud Pomsky parent myself, I understand that every pet has their own unique personality, routine, and comfort level. I provide patient, loving, and dependable care while treating every pet like they’re part of my own family. Whether your pup needs playtime, walks, extra cuddles, or simply some company while you’re away, I’m happy to give them the attention and care they deserve. I’m also comfortable with senior pets and pets who need a little extra patience and reassurance. My goal is simple: to make your pet feel safe, loved, and right at home while giving you peace of mind that they’re in good hands. Pet care fits naturally into my routine! I work from home, which gives me plenty of flexibility and allows me to be home throughout the day for walks, potty breaks, playtime, and lots of attention. I’m also a mom of two girls who are both in school (elementary and middle school), so my daytime schedule is fairly consistent. I occasionally work evenings outside of the home, but I plan my schedule around my pet-sitting commitments and make sure every pet gets the care, attention, and routine they need. Since I have a pup of my own I’m already used to keeping a consistent routine and making time for plenty of exercise, play, and cuddles! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a privacy fenced backyard where dogs can safely enjoy some fresh air, playtime, and exercise. I provide a clean, comfortable, and welcoming environment where pets can relax and feel at home. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs, routines, and personality, and I always take the time to make sure they feel safe and comfortable. I’ll treat your pets with the same love, patience, and care I give my own pup!

“Great people, very kind! Took fantastic care of my boy Haywood, he was whining the whole way home because we had to go home instead of staying with his new friends. We will be returning in the future and I would recommend Katie and Joe to anyone looking to have someone watch their dogs! Thank you both for loving Haywood and taking such good care of him while I was out of town!”
“Patrica is THE BEST. We’ve left our little guy with her several times. She takes him on lots of walks every day and sends lots of pictures and video updates. Apollo is always excited to hang out with his buddies (her other dogs)”
“Jennifer took excellent care of Ruby over the weekend. Ruby had the chance to play with another dog and she enjoyed it very much. I would highly recommend Jennifer to take care of your fur babies!”
“Pam was fantastic! We scheduled a meet-n-greet a couple weeks out; Pam wanted to know all about Jolene’s daily schedule and asked if Jolene liked car rides. Pam sent daily photos with special comments. Pam & her husband took Jolene for a ride after church which she thoroughly enjoyed. Pam was excellent with Jolene and we will definitely use her again!”

“Emma did a wonderful job taking care of my cat Hazel while I was out of town. Hazel has several specific needs, like medicine, special feeding instructions, and grooming needs, and Emma handled her complexity with care. She sent daily updates while I was away, which gave me peace of mind to know Hazel was being looked after during a stressful time. Emma absolutely came through for us and I’d recommend her to anyone!”

“Callie was great with communication and solved a problem with a food mixup to make sure our dogs were taken care of. She is definitely someone I recommend for drop in support. Thanks Callie!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs. I got my dog in college and have been dedicated to his care no matter what. Through moves and full time jobs, he has always been #1. He is a senior now and needs a little extra attention in regards to mobility, so I am comfortable with that. When he was younger he had BOUNDLESS energy as well and was eager to please. I’ve seen both sides and love them and all the traits in between Pet care is a 24/7 deal. They give us unconditional love so we should always be dedicating ourselves to the same. Daily walks, exercise and for sniffing are both beneficial and also just someone to sit by and patrol the neighborhood I care for pets how their owners would because that’s what will make the dog the most comfortable with a new person in their environment. I will always follow the clients routines and expectations
About: I have 3 dogs of my own that I have trained myself. I have looked after friend’s animals numerous times. I have walked, fed, bathed, cut nails, and groomed dogs before.

I don't normally have things scheduled after work other than taking my pups for a walk. I have three friendly and energetic pups that can keep yours company!

“Pam has been such a blessing for our family! She is highly responsive and we never worry one second while they are in her care! Our dogs ears perk up when we say “Do you want to go see Ms. Pam?” Having her in our community is a real asset!”
“So thankful for her quick response to help us in a bind with a few short days' notice. Perfect place and home for our pups to stay one afternoon. Great yard, and our dogs felt instantly comfortable with Whitley and her other pups. Many thanks, Whitley!”
“What a delight! Senator had a wonderful time with Mindy and canine babies. Mindy was so kind and ready to spend time with him. He was exhausted afterward, but….that’s a compliment. Hope to visit again soon.”
About: I’ve been involved with dog rescue for many years. I worked with virtually every type of dog there is. From shy, timid to very high energy. I’ve had dogs that had aggression issues. I worked with dogs on leash training, housebreaking, and socialization. I am retired. I have nothing but time on my hands! I volunteer Thursday mornings at an equine therapy barn. But I will still have time to take care of animals on Thursdays. I am open to caring for dogs in my home. But! They have to be dog and cat friendly. I would prefer not to have younger dogs, only because my dogs are older and don’t like young dogs, jumping all over them. My dogs are very dog friendly though. My cats are very dog friendly. In fact, they prefer dogs over our cats!
About: Hi! I’m Carley, and I have had dogs my entire life—from Scotties and Westies to Golden Retrievers and, of course, the best kind of dogs…mutts! I work full-time from home, which means your dog will have plenty of company and won’t be left alone for long periods. My home has a large, fully fenced privacy yard where dogs can safely play, explore, and burn off energy throughout the day. I have experience with both dog sitting and house sitting, but I prefer boarding dogs in my home because I can provide more supervision and keep a close eye on everyone. I also have two friendly dogs who enjoy having canine visitors. As I often watch my sister’s dogs and have had 6 dogs at once that I looked after. I’ll admit it—I can be a little overprotective when it comes to my own dogs, and I’ll treat yours with that same level of care. My goal is for you to enjoy your time away knowing your dog is safe, happy, and being treated like part of the family.
About: I’ve grown up on farms with many animals to include dogs and have raised them since I was young. Can’t wait to introduce myself to your fur baby’s and give them the love that they show us every day 😄 I’m currently in between jobs so my hours are flexible for your needs, always up for the exercise for a run or walk with your animals 😁 Currently only have a cat in a studio apartment so no space for a dog. My dog is back home in Ohio with my parents as I have no space here for him right now.
About: I've had at least two dogs my entire life. I've cared for puppies through adult dogs. I have even cared for some with special needs. When your dog stays with me, you also get my whole family to care for them. I'm a stay at home mom and I have plenty of time to care for your baby. I can be with your dog at all times. I have a fenced in yard and three dogs who would love to play and snuggle. I will also walk your dog if you'd like.
“Michael was great! He asked questions to know Rosie better. He kept in touch with us before her daycare date. During her stay he kept us up to date & sent pictures. We would definitely recommend them & would schedule with them again if we visit the area. It was a perfect situation for our Rosie! Thanks, Michael!”
“David was great with Myles. He is already going to potty outside after just a week of training with David. I can already see a difference with his behavior and his separation anxiety and also the way he interacts with other dogs. His personality is starting to shine now. I think after a few more weeks of training Myles is going to be in great shape.”
“Alij is such a sweet and caring sitter. She kept me updated and made me feel comfortable while I was away from my dogs. I’m so grateful for the great care she gave them, and I’ll definitely be booking her again.”
“Parisa is one of the nicest and most caring people I’ve met. In fact, I just met her and I could tell this instantly. I definitely trust that she provided my pup with the best and most loving care. I will 100% be using her again. Thanks again, Parisa!”
About: I've taken care of my family dog for 6 years, and I also was entrusted with my friends and family's dogs since I was 9. Currently, I am doing volunteer work and shadowing physicians as I am home for the summer from college. I am available majority of the week and weekends. I make sure to let our animals have their separate spaces for when they are in need of a rest. They also have fulltime access to food and water, and I have a fenced in yard with enough room to run around. In a client's home I will make sure your pet has food, water, and a clean place to go to the bathroom. I will ensure they are mentally stimulated with plenty of play time and cuddle time.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my entire life, and not only that, but I work at a doggy daycare and boarding place, so I feel I have alot of experience. I also once majored in biological sciences pre veterinary, so I have a lot of prior animal knowledge. My highschool was also a career tech school for animals. I currently am working a second job, but only part time so I have a lot of free time. I am fully free during the week, and weekends I work 7-3 usually, but I also live in a home where we all love to take care of animals, so if they were to board there is always someone at home to look out for them. I don’t have a fenced in yard, however I do have a very safe neighborhood, so I am willing to take animals outside on a leash, on a walk, etc. I also have alot of open space in my home for play/ exercise. I have one dog who is a Japanese chin, very tiny very sweet dog, she gets along with anyone and is the most loving girl. I have a cat also, the sweetest cat you will ever encounter. She loves to play with my dog and greet new people who come in our home.
About: Hi my name is Patrice. I'm a veterinary technician who loves being with animals even outside of my normal work day. If I could I would adopt a million pets but unfortunately that's not an option. I take pride in being able to help care for pets outside of my own. There's nothing more fulfilling than being able to play with fur babies when the owners cannot do so because of work. I am able to provide exercise time, medication administration, ear cleaning, and basic grooming. If you are in need of any of the above services feel free to reach out to me. I would love to get to know you and your fur babies and develop a life long bond. Pet care fits into my daily routine perfectly. I'm always with pets even in my dreams. Rather I am walking pets or meeting up for grooming appointments, I'm always with pets. I get a background of the pets home life and mimic that while they are with me. Routine works best with most pets. When you switch up what they are used to they do not do well.
About: My name is Zack. I have had dogs my entire life. I have owned all different breeds of dogs. From miniature pinscher to pit-bull terriers. I started training my own dogs 20+ years ago. As I have gotten older, it grew with me. I enjoy playing with dogs and training them. I currently have my own dog training business on the side. So while your dog is with me, I will take special care of him/her and your dog will have a lot of fun. I also have 4 dogs of my own that we got from the shelter. Two are lab mixes, 1 is a maltese mix and 1 is an AustralianCattleDog. I also have 2 kids in their teens that help me with training dogs and also help me with dogs I take care of and take for walks. My wife and kids love dogs just as much as I do. Dogs are family in this home, not pets. I'm just glad my kids enjoy it as much as I do because it's a great way to teach my kids while spending quality time with them. My family and I have plenty of time with your pet while they are here for play time, walk time, socializing, lounge time and more. I currently have 4 dogs myself that are dog friendly that ur fur family can play with. I also have crates for dogs if I feel like dogs need a break from eachother. Your pet is treated like family in our home.

About: Throughout my life, I've had the pleasure of caring for dogs from their puppy years to their senior days. I've always shown them compassion, love, and care. I enjoy outdoor activities with them, whether it's playing in the yard, going for walks—short or long—in the neighborhood, or embarking on hiking adventures. When they prefer to simply laze around and seek comfort, I'm there for that too. My full attention is devoted to them when they're under my care. I'm retired and lost my dog due to a stroke, so I have plenty of time to care for your family pet. I will care / walk your pet at your home or pick up and drive to a park for a hike or longer walks. I will ensure your pet is kept in a secure area while indoors and on a leash when outdoors. Should you have any specific requests, I will adhere to them and strive to maintain your pet's regular routine. For walks, I will only take pets from one household at a time to avoid mixing different households.

I treat every pet in my care with the same patience, attention, and love that I give my own pets. I’m available as needed for any pet sitting. If you have a specific schedule that is needed, I’m more than willing to abide by it. I currently have dogs in my own home and have had a cat.

I truly enjoy spending time with animals, so feel free to reach out anytime—I’d love to help care for your furry friends! I personally have a fenced in yard and two friendly doggies. One is 8 years old and the other is 2. I can do whatever your pets need!
About: I’ve taken care of my own menagerie of pets since I was a girl ranging from reptiles, rodents, small parrots, cats and dogs. Through college I volunteered on a horse farm where I cleaned and helped take care of 10 horses, also worked at a local pet store for 10 years as a floor manager and excelled in animal husbandry. In addition I worked part time as a veterinary assistant. I’m a dedicated, responsible, hardworking Momma of two wanting to share my passion for animals with others. I keep a variety of animals, book me for your reptile/small animal/aviary needs by selecting “cat” and let’s chat about what you need done while your away. I am currently home throughout the week and have a fairly open availability depending on your specific needs. Reach out and let’s chat. If I can’t help you I will let you know. I am responsible for 3 tortoises, 8 snakes, a few rats, a handful of leopard geckos, freshwater fish tanks, chameleons, dogs, a cat and let’s not forget my two babies. Keeping pets is my hobby and I’m passing this along to my young ones. Gone all day and have a new puppy that needs more attention. I’ve been there and can offer walks with BASIC obedience. My dogs have all received their good citizen award from attending training classes. Let’s chat!

“Gabriel was great in taking extra steps to care for Coco while I was out of the country. He sent pictures and updates that put me at ease! He has a wonderful home and yard that my dog enjoyed. I definitely would recommend him for your animals stay. I knew Coco was safe.”
“Kara is amazing with my cat! She really knows what she’s doing. But on top of her animal cares, she’s also super nice and was willing to be flexible around my work schedule”
“Chrissy and her family are great. I got daily updates while my dog was staying with them. They kept their 2 dogs in another room briefly when we first showed up to give my dog time to adjust and then brought them out for introductions (which was seamless). Thanks Chrissy!”
“Misty was phenomenal with our dog Samson. He's a big dog and she walked him, she cared for him she took pictures of him. Wow, I was so impressed and felt so comfortable her. Misty's children loved on him. It was a beautiful experience and I will definitely use her as many times as I can!”
“Michael and Anne were so great to Jax while we were gone for a week. He was so spoiled and happy when we picked him up! We also received several videos and pictures of him while we were out to see how much fun he was having. Will definitely use Michael and Anne if we go out of town again!”
“Laurie took wonderful care of Brutus for us. She Answered very quickly and accepted our last minute request with out hesitation. I will defiantly recommend her to anyone. Thank you Laurie.”
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of experience caring for pets of all personalities, ages, and needs. As a proud Pomsky parent myself, I understand that every pet has their own unique personality, routine, and comfort level. I provide patient, loving, and dependable care while treating every pet like they’re part of my own family. Whether your pup needs playtime, walks, extra cuddles, or simply some company while you’re away, I’m happy to give them the attention and care they deserve. I’m also comfortable with senior pets and pets who need a little extra patience and reassurance. My goal is simple: to make your pet feel safe, loved, and right at home while giving you peace of mind that they’re in good hands. Pet care fits naturally into my routine! I work from home, which gives me plenty of flexibility and allows me to be home throughout the day for walks, potty breaks, playtime, and lots of attention. I’m also a mom of two girls who are both in school (elementary and middle school), so my daytime schedule is fairly consistent. I occasionally work evenings outside of the home, but I plan my schedule around my pet-sitting commitments and make sure every pet gets the care, attention, and routine they need. Since I have a pup of my own I’m already used to keeping a consistent routine and making time for plenty of exercise, play, and cuddles! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a privacy fenced backyard where dogs can safely enjoy some fresh air, playtime, and exercise. I provide a clean, comfortable, and welcoming environment where pets can relax and feel at home. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs, routines, and personality, and I always take the time to make sure they feel safe and comfortable. I’ll treat your pets with the same love, patience, and care I give my own pup!
“Melissa kept up updated with pictures of our boy daily. He seemed to have had so much fun playing with their other dogs. Thank you for snuggling him and treating him like your own!”
“Great people, very kind! Took fantastic care of my boy Haywood, he was whining the whole way home because we had to go home instead of staying with his new friends. We will be returning in the future and I would recommend Katie and Joe to anyone looking to have someone watch their dogs! Thank you both for loving Haywood and taking such good care of him while I was out of town!”
“Jennifer took excellent care of Ruby over the weekend. Ruby had the chance to play with another dog and she enjoyed it very much. I would highly recommend Jennifer to take care of your fur babies!”
“Pam was fantastic! We scheduled a meet-n-greet a couple weeks out; Pam wanted to know all about Jolene’s daily schedule and asked if Jolene liked car rides. Pam sent daily photos with special comments. Pam & her husband took Jolene for a ride after church which she thoroughly enjoyed. Pam was excellent with Jolene and we will definitely use her again!”
“We used Janice for the first time this weekend and I would absolutely recommend! She did an amazing job, kept me updated regularly and sent tons of pictures! She took care of our puppy like he was her own. We will definitely use again in the future!”
“Bethany and her family were amazing! We got pictures daily and it looked like our dogs had an amazing time! Bethany exceeded my expectations making sure my girls were happy and having fun! She gave us regular updates and even made sure they were clean for pickup after playing in the doggy pool! We will definitely be using Bethany again!”
“Daisy suffers from Separation Anxiety and needs to be with a person almost all the time. She was so well taken care of by Jenna and her family, she was her normal happy self, when we picked her up. I would definitely board Daisy with Jenna again.”
“Whitley was great when she watched our dog during our wedding weekend! She was responsive, flexible, and super understanding when the wedding nerves made us anxious. Loved the wedding day doggo photo shoot❤️”
“I cannot express how appreciative my wife and I are for Tonia’s care in watching our pup. She had never been boarded before and we were very nervous about it. Despite our dog Maya having a lot of separation anxiety and some reactivity to people we felt reassured knowing that someone who genuinely loves dogs and has a very calm environment was watching her. Thank you so much for your help Tonia!”
