“We can't wait to take Stella back! She loved her stay and I loved the communication and pictures we got! I've already rebooked three additional stays. Our experience could not have been better!”
“Allan is great, very communicative and kind. I never worried about my dog Penny the entire weekend and was able to enjoy myself. Definitely would recommend Allan, and I will be a repeat customer.”
“Jayden and his wife Lisa are amazing dog sitters. I left my dog Buddy with them over two weeks while flying outside of the country. They we're very flexible and attentive to all of my requests, and promptly communicated any changes with him while in their care. Buddy and their dog Redford became fast friends and Buddy quite clearly loved spending time with their kids, making a bed out of their trampoline. It was so nice to get updates and see just how much fun they had with him. Buddy says hi and thanks again!”
“Cindie is very attentive and detail-oriented, and she made sure we were 100% comfortable about leaving our puppy with her for the weekend. She also was kind enough to send us updates and photos while we were away, which was a really nice touch! I definitely recommend her as a dog-sitter!”
“Jennifer was amazing with my dog, Pablo! She cared for him like he was her own and kept me updated every day with photos and notes, which gave me so much peace of mind. Pablo was happy, well-loved, and so comfortable with her. I highly recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving sitter!”
“Ashley is amazing with our fur baby Deebo. Appreciate the daily updates & responsiveness with communication. Will definitely use her for future boarding.”
About: I care for dogs by keeping them on a consistent routine and paying close attention to their individual needs. I make sure they get regular potty breaks, exercise, and safe, supervised play time. I follow feeding instructions exactly, keep water fresh, and maintain clean food and water bowls. I also watch for behavior or appetite changes and communicate anything important right away. I’m patient, calm, and attentive, and I take time to build trust so dogs feel comfortable and secure. Whether a dog is high-energy or laid-back, I adjust my approach to match their personality. As an active duty Army service member and lifelong dog owner since age 15, I bring reliability, structure, and genuine care to every pet I look after. I work Monday through Friday from 9 AM to 5 PM, and my job is only about 15 minutes from my apartment, so I can return home quickly if needed. My spouse works from home, so pets in my care are supervised 24/7. I’m an Active Guard/Reserve service member and typically work one weekend per month — I plan all pet care commitments around that schedule. I’m up daily at 4:30 AM and keep a very structured routine, so feeding times, walks, potty breaks, and exercise schedules are followed consistently. I also have a home camera system to monitor pets throughout the day. On most weekends, I spend the day out and active with my own dog, so pets in my care get plenty of attention and exercise. You may notice my rates are on the lower end. that’s by design! I keep my prices affordable and let my work speak for itself. If you feel I went above and beyond, a tip is how I know I nailed it. No pressure at all, but it means the world when people show their appreciation that way. I’m committed to giving your pet the best care possible regardless! I provide a safe, structured, and supervised home environment where dogs are treated like family. Pets in my care are allowed to comfortably roam the home and are not kept in a crate all day. I have an American Bully in the home who is friendly and fully up to date on all vaccinations. All dogs are kept on leash during outdoor time for safety. I keep the home clean, remove hazards, and maintain fresh water and feeding areas daily. I follow all owner instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, and behavior guidelines. I also use a home camera system to monitor pets when I step out. While I don’t normally crate dogs, I can crate your pet if needed or if that is your preference.
“Kristin, you were so great with Daisy! The pictures and texts you sent on how Daisy was doing made us feel really good. When we picked her up, she was all smiles and excited! I highly recommend Kristin to anyone needed a dogsitter!”
“My shiba stayed with Paige for a week. Paige was very kind, caring and accomodated Shiba's needs. She sent us plenty of pictures and updates throught the week. I'll totally be comfortable leaving Shiba with her again.”
“Penny was great! She sent many photo updates of our puppies. They had many adventure walks, had time to play in her yard, and they also did some training sessions. We will definitely be back!”
“Not everyone embraces caring for a German Shepherd but Sandy did. She provided my almost 5 year old boy with a warm embrace and love during his stay with her. He seemed totally at home, happy and content when I picked him up.”
“Janelle was amazing with our guy Oscar. We had to find someone last minute, as the person we had needed to back out. She took very good care of him and gave us daily updates as well as pics. She is a lover of all animals and it shows by the way she interacts with them. I will definitely be asking her to watch Oscar the next time we need someone and will recommend her to all of our family and friends!!”

We’ve been taking Bear since he was a puppy (he’s now almost 3) and now our new puppy Moose stays there as well and they both just have the best time and come home exhausted from all the playing! Thank you Debra for loving our pups as much as we do!! 🫶🏻”

About: Hi! My name is Jayden and my wife Lisa and I are excited to care for your pup like they’re part of our family. Lisa works from home and I work a hybrid schedule, so there will almost always be someone home with your dog to give them attention, supervision, and plenty of love throughout the day. We also have 2-year-old twins who absolutely love dogs and are used to being around them. We always make sure interactions are gentle, safe, and fun for everyone. We have a 1-year-old King Charles Spaniel named Redford who is very friendly and loves having other dogs around to play with. While we don’t have a fenced-in yard, we live in a great neighborhood that’s perfect for walks. Your pup will get at least two long walks every day, plus as many potty breaks as they need. We love getting outside and making sure dogs get plenty of exercise and stimulation. Our goal is to make your dog feel comfortable, cared for, and right at home while they’re with us! I am completely free on the weekends. Happy to do drop in visits or walks. I am also free during the evenings and during lunch hours on Wednesday and Friday. Let me know what schedule will work well for your pet. I will treat your pets like they are my own. I will make sure to give them the love and attention that they need and carefully look over your instructions to make sure they are properly cared for.
“Allan did a great job taking care of my cats! I got pics every day, he played with them, and generally put my mind at ease while I was on vacation! I would recommend him!”
“This was my first time using this site. I was nervous and unsure how everything would work. John'Asia came to meet me and my cat before my vacation. During my vacation she was on time. Bonded with my cat and really took care of my cat. I feel like my pet was in good hands. She sent me photos everyday and also wrote my cat's progress for that day. Next time I take a vacation I will definitely use John'Asia as the sitter for my pets.”
“Honestly, probably the best cat sitter I’ve ever had. Hannah is incredibly kind, communicative, and truly cares about the pets she watches. She went above and beyond for my cats, which gave me a lot of peace of mind while I was away. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring cat sitter.”
“Taylor was amazing. She knows cats and took great care of Piper. She went above and beyond any expectation I had. I hope she is always available when we need her. 10 ☆'s!!!”
“Natalie was great! Kept great communication before and during her visits. Really grateful she was able to check on the cats and the house for us!! Would definitely recommend. Thanks again!”
About: I genuinely love cats and understand that every cat has a different personality. Whether your cat is social or more independent, I’m happy to adjust to what makes them most comfortable. I can help with feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, medications if needed, and keeping them company while you’re away 🐱
About: I am a Registered Veterinary Technician at a shelter I used to volunteer for, and have had my own dogs and cats my entire life. I’ve recently gone part-time and would enjoy walking your pets or stopping in for those needed potty breaks. I used to walk dogs for the shelter I now work at. I also foster animals for them, most dogs and puppies. I work at the shelter Thursdays and Fridays. I am available other days of the week on a part-time basis. I don’t have preferred days in mind at this time. I will certainly follow all instructions provided and will treat your pet as my own while in my care. I will respect and properly care for your home environment.
“My fat cat Marley said he totally enjoyed his time with Claire. She kept me informed about him and she even volunteered to roll out my garbage for me. You can tell that she really loves animals and I highly recommend her.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Sylvania
About: Hello! My name is John’Asia. As you may see by viewing my photos, I have a huge heart for fur babies. It all started when I volunteered at a local animal shelter in my hometown. I fell in love with the idea of taking care of the pups/kittens there. That’s when I decided to start my own business in the pet care industry! This is not just a business this is my passion/dream job! I do not have any pets of my own, therefore I treat all of the furbabies as my very own under my care. I am here to provide you the best service for your family member. I am trustworthy, energetic, reliable and prompt. I am very excited to meet everyone’s pets! I am really hoping to attract repeat and long term fur besties. Also, I will require a meet and greet with me. Thank you! I am a full time pet care provider. My schedule is open from 9AM - 8PM Monday - Saturday for walks & visits. 24hrs/7days a week for housesitting & boarding. Don’t worry, your fur baby is in great hands. I will be sure to send you daily photos of your fur baby for your comfort. Drop Ins & Walks: I love the excitement of fur babies when I come in because they know it’s play/snack time when they see me lol! Also, if you need me to feed or clean up a possible accident, that’s not a problem! Boarding: I treat all pups as my own while under my care. Your pup will go everywhere (Bike Rides, dog park, summer events, trails, etc.) with me except other homes I service! Your pup will feel like he/she is on vacation as well!! Did you see the new play area & boarding area I created. Check out my photos!!!!!! Lol they will have a great time & it will show in the daily pictures! **Disclaminer the back yard park & playhouse are no longer effective due to me moving into an apartment** Housesitting: Same as boarding but in the comfort of their home! Your pup will go everywhere (dog park, dog events, trails, etc.) with me except other homes I service! & Ofcourse they can sleep in the bed with me!! Lol Bike Rides: If you would like to book a bike ride, please request through walk or visit! -Best Pawjama Pawties In Town!!
“It was the first time we’d left our little one with a dog sitter, and we were a little worried because ever since we adopted her, she’s always been very shy and tends to be afraid of strangers, but Jenifer was amazing with Hazel. She was extremely friendly and kept us updated on our little ball of fur, making her feel like she was part of a second family. My husband and I are very happy—we’ll definitely be back.”

About: My wife and I have taken care of dogs for a long time. We understand that every dog has special needs. We are receptive to all breeds I am currently retired and my wife works part time. We have the time to give your dog special attention. Very little time will your dog be alone We have a fenced in yard with a suburban setting. We have a puppy that loves other dogs. Our dog is a yorkie/toy poodle. We can work with you for your dog to have a pleasant stay
“He did a phenomenal job! I booked last minute and he was very accommodating. He brought Dakota into his home with Kya and Roo, and made him feel very welcome.”
“Celene is legitimately the best dog sitter you could ask for. She not only is an early riser but is a night owl. Celene sends updates and ask questions without even being asked. She not only puts effort in towards jaxsons training she has even went out of her way to teach us on how we could be doing different/better. Celene also makes sure that jaxson gets the proper food/water/bathroom breaks as he needs. He doesn't come back hungry, needing to potty, or beat up. Penny, celenes dog, is hands down the cutest little thing I've ever seen. When I get there she is happy to greet me at the door with kisses and tail wags. Jaxson also loves penny and always comes back PROPERLY wore out. My final thoughts are if I could had another grandma I would ask her. Shes been there for us EVERY time we've need her and that's at the end of the day all I could ask.”
“Emily was awesome to deal with. Very friendly, great communication and flexible with time. My dog really enjoyed his time with her and will be going back next time we’re in town!”
About: My sister and I moved back to our home town and moved in together (along with my 10 year old niece and my 2 year old daughter). Both of us have had pets all our lives, including owning dogs from as small as 20 pounds to as large as 120 pounds. My doggie Odie stayed with my ex in California and our current family recently and unexpectedly lost my sister’s mini-Poochon, Cosmo. We recently adopted a Labradoodle! Grover is super sweet and loves to have playmates but also understands how to give other dogs space. My 2 year old loves all animals and understands how to give dogs space and to read physical cues (lip curl, growl), but unfortunately, we can’t dog sit or board any dogs that aren’t okay with small children. We are okay with dogs that need some extra care (meds, help going outside to potty, etc.). We have a large fenced yard and we welcome pups in all parts of our house. Thanks! I work from home, my sister watches my two year old in the house, and my 10 year old niece does online school so lots of options for care and cuddles. My parents are also just a few minutes away if we ever need back up! We have a large fenced yard and can do walks as needed (although with some limits when the weather is super cold). We welcome pups in all parts of our house including bedrooms on the second or first floor if pups have a hard time with stairs.
“I felt so comfortable being out of town even though I missed my baby❤️.She updated me everyday how Diamond was doing,sent pictures.I would really recommend her to keep your pet very good with animals.I will be taking Diamond back if I have to go out of town again.”
About: Hi! I’m Lily, and caring for animals is genuinely one of my favorite things in life. I’ve had pets my whole life and have also worked at a doggy daycare, so I’m very comfortable handling dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I own dogs myself—they’re very docile and love having friends—so I understand how important it is to find someone you fully trust with your pets. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, including anxious pups and dogs with special needs. One of my dogs is deaf and responds to sign, so I’m especially patient, attentive, and tuned in to nonverbal communication. Whether your pet needs high-energy playtime, structured walks, or just a calm and comforting presence, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I’ll treat them like they’re my own—lots of love, attention, and updates so you never have to wonder how they’re doing. I’m reliable, communicative, and genuinely excited to meet your pets. I can’t wait to give them the care they deserve! My schedule is flexible and allows me to provide consistent care throughout the day. I currently work full-time, but I’m in the process of transitioning roles, which gives me increasing availability. My partner is home by 2:30 PM every day, and we’re both home in the evenings, so your pet will have plenty of supervision, attention, and company. We make sure pets are never left alone for long periods and always prioritize their comfort and routine. I’m happy to work with your pet’s specific schedule and needs—just let me know what works best for them! Your pet’s safety is my top priority. We have a fully fenced-in backyard with turf, providing a clean and secure space for safe outdoor play and bathroom breaks. Inside, our home is pet-proofed to prevent access to anything unsafe, and we always supervise interactions to ensure a calm and controlled environment. I’m attentive to each dog’s behavior and needs, and I take introductions slowly to make sure everyone feels comfortable. You can trust that your pet will be in a safe, secure, and well-managed environment at all times.
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was 12, from small reptiles, to Guinea pigs, to cats and dogs I’ll cover it all :) give me a message I’ll happily be of service to you I have plenty of enough time for boarding or day time care for your lovely pets. My home is quiet, friendly, and smoke-free! No worries when they are with me I have a 3bedroom home, nice backyard, and a safe area to walk your pets around outside! Pets will be most comfortable with me as I am the biggest pet lover and will take best care of to my abilities!
“If you’re looking for someone in the Fort Drum area, you found her. Maddie is very quick to get ahold of, and is beyond flexible. I was delayed one night to pick up Eva from daycare and Maddie was quick to offer to let her stay the night, that helped very much. Also, Eva was so relaxed there, she really wasn’t in a hurry to leave; which never happens.”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and truly see them as family. I’ve cared for friends’ dogs overnight, provided regular walks, and helped with drop-ins for years. I now have one friendly 3-year-old mini Bernedoodle of my own. Dog care is a natural fit for me — I love giving pups attention, structure, affection, and play. This is a family experience as well; my kids (11, 9, and 7) have grown up around dogs and are wonderful, gentle helpers. We understand dog body language, needs, and boundaries, and we want every dog to feel safe and loved while in our home. I would be honored to care for your pup and give them all the comfort, exercise, and affection they need while you’re away. We spend a lot of time outside walking, playing, and getting fresh air. I walk daily and am happy to take your dog along with me 2–3x per day if desired. If you need boarding, drop-ins, or extra walks while you’re away, I am here to help We have a fully fenced backyard for safe playtime. If you need a crate I would ask that you bring your own. I feed on a consistent schedule and will gladly adjust to follow your instructions. We maintain a very active, loving environment and make sure your pup feels right at home. Please reach out with any additional needs or services — I’m happy to accommodate!
About: Ever since I was a kid I have had a love for dogs. I was always the one in my family to take the reigns, teach our dogs tricks, potty train, etc. My favorite thing about dogs is their loyalty, no matter the kind of day you are having they are always there for you. Their presence is always something to look forward to. I am always the go to guy for friends when they are out of town and need someone reliable to help with their fur-babies. I will ensure your babies are cared for just as well as if they were my own. Big or small I will care for them all. I currently am a Freelance Graphic Designer that hosts trivia in local bars a few nights a week. Very flexible hours to work from home. I have a large fenced in yard to run around in and when I come to folks home I always treat it like my own.
“Great care of my little golden pup!! I feel totally safe leaving her in Sadeys care to help me out for long work days. Twigg spent her day running around in the spacious backyard and playing with her toys. She was totally beat after coming home and slept the rest of the night. Shes excited to go back later this month. I know puppies are exhausting and a lot of work so I appreciate Sadey taking care of her all day. I would highly recommend any of her services for your pups needs.”

About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. Growing up, I cared for my own small dog and regularly watched family members’ and neighbors’ dogs through walks, feeding, playtime, and overnight care. I’ve also expanded my experience by volunteering at a local animal shelter, where I walk and care for dogs with a wide range of personalities and energy levels. I have delt with numerous dogs with high energy personalities or sometimes ones with bad behavior habits. I always handle situations with care and would love to wear your dog out! I genuinely love being around animals and always make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owner is away. I’m very attentive, reliable, and responsible, whether that means sticking to feeding schedules, providing exercise and enrichment, or simply giving dogs lots of attention and affection. My goal is always to treat every dog like they’re my own and provide the best care possible. When visiting your fur baby I would love to take them on a walk have a good play session and give them all the attentive care they need! I have a very open availability and if I get a request enough in advance, I am willing to take off work in order to work around my client's schedule! Even if I do have work, it is part-time only for a couple of hours and can care for your furry loved ones right when I get off! With my current situation, I am only able to care for large pets such as dogs in my client’s home. I have a reliable mode of transportation meaning I can drive myself whenever needed. I have plenty of space in an extra room to care for small pets if that is the case!

About: I have been lucky enough to always have 3+ dogs around me at a time my entire life and love watching them share their favorite hobbies with me! Day to day I love creating interactive games and lick mats for the dogs in my life. I also love taking them out on walks to clear both of our heads :) I have experience caring for & training newborn puppies all the way up to my own elderly dog. You can trust me with your baby! With my own pup I usually take her on walks 3-4 times a week & love taking her to the dog park. We also go to pet stores or pet friendly stores just as a change in scenery. I’ve been helping train 2 5 month old puppies and running around in the backyard with them while cuddling my dog throughout the day! I don’t know a life without multitasking puppy duties! At your home I will play with all of your dogs’ favorite toys & incorporate their favorite activities into their day without the shock of taking them out of their comfort zone!
About: Pet Care Experience: I have hands on experience caring for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies to gentle seniors.

What Sets Me Apart: I treat every pet like my own, offering personalized care, consistent communication, and lots of affection. My ability to handle different temperaments, provide loving, general care, and support older pets with mobility or comfort needs helps me stand out as a reliable, thoughtful sitter. I am a college student on summer break so my schedule is as available as it can be! I am super flexible and want to help out if I can! I am very friendly with dogs and have a way with being trusted easily. I have never been mean or harmful, always friendly and encouraging.
About: I have had dog(s) and/or cat(s)in my life for over 40 years. Animal lovers are very special…I am one of those people that love animals! I work full-time with flexible hours. Animals are welcome to join me in my workplace. I take walks daily and would love to have a pup to walk with. I can watch pets in my home or in clients home and will offer loving care to offer comfort to the client’s pet. I want to ensure that the pet I’m watching or walking is feeling loved and at peace. My son and daughter-in-law have a very nervous rescue so I have experience with nervous pups too!

I know how important it is to feel confident leaving your pets in someone else’s care. I always make sure pets are safe, secure, and comfortable. I treat your home with the same respect as my own and your pets with the same love I give mine.
About: Hi I am Cindie, I am mom to two rescued girls that I have adopted, one is a Yorkie and the other is a" Morkie" which is a Maltese Yorkie mix, they are both under the age of 11 and are very lovable and easy-going and love to be around other dogs, they would love to share their large back yard with you! It is completely fenced in and gated with lots of lush grass to run and play in. There is a large wooden deck connected to the back of the house that gives them free reign in and out of the house to access of the doggie door anytime day and night, We have pet friends on both sides of us, our neighborhood is very pet friendly, we have lots of friends that live here that would love to come out and visit with us when you come over! Inside of the house is very comfortable also, we are allowed on the furniture, we have lots of toys to play with and we get special treats like carrots and chicken when we are good ! Our mom has lots of experience taking care of dogs, we didn't get to know our older "sister " Buffy,...because she crossed over the "Rainbow Bridge" before we were adopted, but every night the lights shine on her "Memorial Tree" in our backyard where she is "sleeping",..

“Natalie is so wonderful with my two big boys! She's familiar with dog behavior and seems to actually LOVE what she does! I would recommend her to anyone considering a dog walker. She actually exercises them, just as they need! She helps me out more than I think she realizes. I am a very grateful dog mom. ❤️”
About: I’ve been around dogs for as long as I can remember, and I’ve loved every second of it. Dogs bring so much happiness into our lives, and I truly believe they deserve the best care and attention possible. I know it can be tough for pups when their family is away, so my goal is to make them feel safe, loved, and right at home while you’re gone. Whether it’s walks, cuddles, or playtime, I’ll make sure your dog feels cared for every step of the way. I’m a junior in college and currently help train and socialize service dogs in training, so I’m very comfortable reading dog behavior and making sure each pup gets what they need. I’m also great with watching more than one dog at a time and love giving them all the attention they deserve! I’m currently a student at Miami University, and pet care is one of my favorite ways to spend my breaks when I’m home from school! Since I’m not too busy during those times—especially over winter break—I have plenty of time to give your pup all the love and attention they deserve. I may take a short trip to visit family here and there, but I’ll always make sure your dog is fully cared for and happy while you’re away. Spending time with dogs truly brightens my days, and I can’t wait to meet yours! I always make sure to follow your expectations and routines because every dog is unique, and what matters most to me is caring for your pup the way you would. I’ll stick to their usual feeding schedule, give plenty of potty breaks, and keep their day as normal and comfortable as possible. I’m also experienced with giving medication and handling basic medical care if needed. Most importantly, I’ll make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and at ease while they’re with me at your home (I will not be doing care in my home).
“John’Asia is the best walker i’ve had yet! She is extremely professional, thorough, and treats Toby so well! She is a great communicator and updates me about Toby frequently. I couldn’t ask for a better dog Auntie to Toby! Thank you John’Asia, you are wonderful!”

I am here to help however needed and keep up with your pets routine care. I can clean up after them, play with them, and give them love!
About: I’ve taken care of family & friends pets since I was young. This has included overnights & multiple day stays, quick stops to allow a potty break & play time, or just a quick walk. I have cared for dogs under 1 year of age and elders requiring close attention and medication. I follow your guidelines and instructions regarding your pets care! Ensuring your pet is well taken care of and providing you peace of mind is my top priority. I have grown up with a pet consistently in the household and have a dog myself! I am currently a law student at UT! This is my only source of income and fits into my breaks from class. I already love to go on walks and spend time with animals for a much needed mental break from schoolwork. As much as I am a source of love for your pet, they are a source for me as well! I can easily crate your pet and give medication if needed. I do not discipline unless you express that as a request. I am very patient and positive with animals. I will only enter the parts of your home where the dog is located unless told otherwise. I can simultaneously water any plants or do small house chores if you need!

I’m currently in between jobs so I’m looking forward to meeting and caring for your pet! I will treat them as if they were my own.

I also provide updates and photos so owners can feel at ease while they’re away. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for.

Everyone cares for their animals differently and I am here to help you how you need it!
About: I’ve been surrounded by so many animals in my life. From cats, dogs, and water animals. I feel that whenever I’m around animals I become the happiest.

I want to fill in my extra time doing something I know that I love. I’m very flexible. I have a fenced in yard.

About: Experienced dog mom with three older Boston Terriers aged 10, 11, and 12. I have always had animals since I was a child, they are just an extension of my family. I take my dogs for daily walks, lots of play time, and tons of snuggles. One of my boys takes medication twice a day so I have lots of experience giving oral medication. I know how much my boys mean to mean so I would treat your dogs as my own and provide a safe space for them. I am currently working remotely and can watch dogs with ease. I am happy to break up my days with play time, taking the little ones out for a stroll, potty breaks, and meal times. I have a fenced in yard with close to a 1/4 acre for the dogs to roam about. I live near downtown Perrysburg and have lots of parks nearby to explore on our walks. I have three older Boston Terriers that are happy to lounge about or run around with your dog. I do crate two of my dogs while I am away.

“We can't wait to take Stella back! She loved her stay and I loved the communication and pictures we got! I've already rebooked three additional stays. Our experience could not have been better!”
“Jayden and his wife Lisa are amazing dog sitters. I left my dog Buddy with them over two weeks while flying outside of the country. They we're very flexible and attentive to all of my requests, and promptly communicated any changes with him while in their care. Buddy and their dog Redford became fast friends and Buddy quite clearly loved spending time with their kids, making a bed out of their trampoline. It was so nice to get updates and see just how much fun they had with him. Buddy says hi and thanks again!”
“Jennifer was amazing with my dog, Pablo! She cared for him like he was her own and kept me updated every day with photos and notes, which gave me so much peace of mind. Pablo was happy, well-loved, and so comfortable with her. I highly recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving sitter!”
About: I care for dogs by keeping them on a consistent routine and paying close attention to their individual needs. I make sure they get regular potty breaks, exercise, and safe, supervised play time. I follow feeding instructions exactly, keep water fresh, and maintain clean food and water bowls. I also watch for behavior or appetite changes and communicate anything important right away. I’m patient, calm, and attentive, and I take time to build trust so dogs feel comfortable and secure. Whether a dog is high-energy or laid-back, I adjust my approach to match their personality. As an active duty Army service member and lifelong dog owner since age 15, I bring reliability, structure, and genuine care to every pet I look after. I work Monday through Friday from 9 AM to 5 PM, and my job is only about 15 minutes from my apartment, so I can return home quickly if needed. My spouse works from home, so pets in my care are supervised 24/7. I’m an Active Guard/Reserve service member and typically work one weekend per month — I plan all pet care commitments around that schedule. I’m up daily at 4:30 AM and keep a very structured routine, so feeding times, walks, potty breaks, and exercise schedules are followed consistently. I also have a home camera system to monitor pets throughout the day. On most weekends, I spend the day out and active with my own dog, so pets in my care get plenty of attention and exercise. You may notice my rates are on the lower end. that’s by design! I keep my prices affordable and let my work speak for itself. If you feel I went above and beyond, a tip is how I know I nailed it. No pressure at all, but it means the world when people show their appreciation that way. I’m committed to giving your pet the best care possible regardless! I provide a safe, structured, and supervised home environment where dogs are treated like family. Pets in my care are allowed to comfortably roam the home and are not kept in a crate all day. I have an American Bully in the home who is friendly and fully up to date on all vaccinations. All dogs are kept on leash during outdoor time for safety. I keep the home clean, remove hazards, and maintain fresh water and feeding areas daily. I follow all owner instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, and behavior guidelines. I also use a home camera system to monitor pets when I step out. While I don’t normally crate dogs, I can crate your pet if needed or if that is your preference.

I will definitely be asking her to watch Oscar the next time we need someone and will recommend her to all of our family and friends!!”

About: Hi! I’m Lily, and caring for animals is genuinely one of my favorite things in life. I’ve had pets my whole life and have also worked at a doggy daycare, so I’m very comfortable handling dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I own dogs myself—they’re very docile and love having friends—so I understand how important it is to find someone you fully trust with your pets. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, including anxious pups and dogs with special needs. One of my dogs is deaf and responds to sign, so I’m especially patient, attentive, and tuned in to nonverbal communication. Whether your pet needs high-energy playtime, structured walks, or just a calm and comforting presence, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I’ll treat them like they’re my own—lots of love, attention, and updates so you never have to wonder how they’re doing. I’m reliable, communicative, and genuinely excited to meet your pets. I can’t wait to give them the care they deserve! My schedule is flexible and allows me to provide consistent care throughout the day. I currently work full-time, but I’m in the process of transitioning roles, which gives me increasing availability. My partner is home by 2:30 PM every day, and we’re both home in the evenings, so your pet will have plenty of supervision, attention, and company. We make sure pets are never left alone for long periods and always prioritize their comfort and routine. I’m happy to work with your pet’s specific schedule and needs—just let me know what works best for them! Your pet’s safety is my top priority. We have a fully fenced-in backyard with turf, providing a clean and secure space for safe outdoor play and bathroom breaks. Inside, our home is pet-proofed to prevent access to anything unsafe, and we always supervise interactions to ensure a calm and controlled environment. I’m attentive to each dog’s behavior and needs, and I take introductions slowly to make sure everyone feels comfortable. You can trust that your pet will be in a safe, secure, and well-managed environment at all times.
