“My Crunch loves staying at Lisa’s. He pulled me by his leash to her door his second time going over. He has some separation anxiety and a complex with larger dogs so her home is perfect to keep him happy while we’re away 😊”
“Very nice in person. Very responsive when texting. Also has a big fenced in back yard. She took very good care of my dog. I definitely recommend and will be using her again in the future.”
“Luna had a great time with Christina. Receiving the photos of Luna with a smile on her face was so reassuring to us while we were away on vacation. Luna had a wonderful time with Christina's children and their dog Rylee. Christina did a wonderful job. Thank you so much for taking such great care of Luna. I can tell she misses your family.”
“Brendan and his family took great care of my 3yr old Lab - Indy. Clear communication, quick responses, updates with pictures, easy check-in and check-out. Not to mention, his little pup Ollie. Indy had a good time playing with and looked relaxed throughout the stay. Highly recommended and will certainly come back. Thanks Brendan! 😊”
“First time leaving my dog Danny with Susan and she was a great dog sitter during my weeklong trip. Great communication and very responsive. Would definitely have her board my dog again.”
“Nessie loved her time at Penny's and enjoyed having lots of other doggies (and kitties!) to play with. Penny was prompt and upfront in her communication and provided a full check-in and check-out report so I felt in-the-know! It was clear Penny is experienced and intentional in her work as a dog sitter and we appreciated the care she gave to our dog.”
“Laurie was outstanding with our dog, Remy. She sent photos and updates everyday. We felt like Remy was part of Laurie’s family. He looked comfortable and loved in the photos we received. We will absolutely be going to Laurie again when we need boarding for Remy.”
“Cassandra was extremely personably and prompt with communications during and after booking. When boarding she sent updates and feedback throughout the stay. I could tell that our dog was well cared for and welcomed into her home and family for the more than 2 weeks she had him. I will definitely be using Cassandra again!”
“This is the first time we have ever boarded a fur baby in someone’s home. We were very nervous. Our dog has stitches and needed meds during his stay and Karin was able to accommodate his needs! She was also awesome at sending us pictures and updates. It was great seeing him having fun! We will definitely be using her again! We will even do some doggy daycare since our dogs are besties now!”
“Michael and Anne are great! They’ve watched my dog three times now. The second time we went there, my dog DRAGGED me to their front porch as soon as sure realized where we were, so I know she likes it!”
“Pam is a very sweet, welcoming person! You can sense her love for animals. Midnight was very comfortable there and made friends quickly with her dog. Pam was also very responsive when watching Midnight. She helped me out on short notice. I will definitely use her again.”
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!
“Bill was amazing! He helped me out last minute when it didn’t work out with a sitter and I had to travel the next day. He had a great fenced in yard and quiet neighborhood so I felt at ease having Ni Ni there. Bill sent updates and took wonderful care of her. Will definitely book again!”

“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!”
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.
“1st time having daycare with Whitley and I couldn’t be happier or more comfortable with my girls enjoying their day. Great photos and videos shared through the day and they both slept all the way home in the car- perfect!”
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 one friendly dog 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 dog, 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.

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.

In your home, I follow your pet’s routine, make sure their needs are met, keep their space clean, and give them plenty of attention.

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: 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.

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.
“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.”
“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.”

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life. I’ve also volunteered for dog shelters and watched family and friends pets on multiple occasions. I love puppies and older dogs. Everyone deserves to feel like they can leave their pet with a safe person who will love on their dog. I’m a very active person and take walks daily.

About: I've had a lifelong love of animals — caring for them was a responsibility I embraced from childhood and carried into adulthood. Over the years, I've dedicated time to researching training methods and best practices for working with dogs of varying breeds and temperaments. My hands-on experience includes Great Danes, German Shepherds, Cairn Terriers, Pit Bulls, Yorkies, Goldendoodles, and Labrador Retrievers, giving me a well-rounded foundation for understanding different sizes, energy levels, and personalities. I am currently a full-time student, so I have the flexibility to make sure your pets are walked and checked on through the day. I can also be available for overnights in your home or will consider boarding here on a case-by-case basis. I firmly believe that regular exercise is one of the greatest gifts you can give a dog — both for their physical health and their overall disposition. Ensuring every pup gets the activity they need for a calm, content evening is always my top priority. You can trust that your pet will be in a safe, attentive, and caring environment.

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 live in a single family home with a large back yard and I am in walking distance to many parks. I currently live with two other girls and we do not own any pets. Both roommates are animal lovers as well, so we create a very caring environment!

I currently don’t have a dog but I’m looking! My yard isn’t fenced but it it however quite big and if needed I will walk them out there with a leach! My house is big and they are allowed to come inside!
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!

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!

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life. I’ve also volunteered for dog shelters and watched family and friends pets on multiple occasions. I love puppies and older dogs. Everyone deserves to feel like they can leave their pet with a safe person who will love on their dog. I’m a very active person and take walks daily. My schedule is very flexible which makes it easy to be able to come home during the day and take dogs for walks or just be around at home to hang out. I care for them very much. My apartment has a dog park down the street as well as many grassed areas around to play and go potty. Nothing dangerous or unusual kept in house hold. I live with 3 girls all who have dogs at home and love taking care of them.
“Janice is super friendly and very thorough. We really enjoyed the photos and updates she sent us over the weekend. Janice is good with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. Our dog came home happy and we know she was in good hands with Janice and her family! We work forward to working with Janice again soon!”
“We are so happy that our goldendoodle had a loving family to stay with while we were away. We received regular updates with pictures to show us how well he was doing. This was our 2nd time with this family, and our dog was so excited to return. Great peace of mind to have him so well-cared for!”
“We felt comfortable leaving Rosie to stay with Lisa. Lisa called us before drop off to let us know what to expect, and kept in touch with us while Rosie was with her. Lisa was flexible with our pick up and drop off times. Rosie seemed to enjoy her time with Lisa, we’ll definitely book again!”
“Sarah and Matthew are a DREAM for dog sitters and their beautiful farm is just paradise for any pup. They took such great care of our dog for eight days. They’d send pictures daily and communicated with us each day. Absolutely five star rating!”
