“Bobby was really great. I know my Yogi boy is a handful at 130 lbs but he handled him just fine and I can tell Yogi had a great time...plus he sent me pictures and video so I could see him having a good time. That was great. Most times I leave him at a boarding place and he barely eats and comes home thinner and takes a while to return to normal. Yogi looks normal, walked out to the car normal, he's just a little tired ofcourse. Thanks again Bobby I will definitely be coming back again sir”

About: I will give your dog my full attention as well as my children. We all love animals. My children are super gentle and loving and love to take walks so finding time to take your dog for a walk will be no problem! I am home all day so your dog will get lots of attention! I am choosing to do this because the kids want a dog but I am not fully committed to buying one of our own quite yet, so dog sitting will please everyone. I have a huge yard with the option of fenced in and unfenced areas. We have very few neighbors so if your pup is a barker it will be not a problem. Lots of space to take dogs for walks without running into other people or animals.

About: I own a border collie and 2 elderly cats. I am home during the day and night. I am an avid hiker and love to take dogs for long walks in the woods. See my YouTube channel: LaceyhikesAT2026 to get to know me more. I am currently not working as I just returned from a 2200 mile hike and am looking to care for animals (as opposed to working in an office). I have availability and energy to deplete. I own my own home in rural area. My yard is nestled between a working farm and a horse pasture. I walk my border collie 3 times a day at minimum and often on trails in the woods. My animals roam free in my home and dog/cats (2 elderly) behave with confidence and happiness. My cats are indoor but one does get walked daily outside on a leash (at his insistence).

“Watson had a great experience with Mike and his crew. I was looking for a sitter to keep watch of Watson for an afternoon while I explored the mountain bike trails at Raystown lake. Mike lives super super close to the trailhead so that was very convenient. He took great care of Watson giving him multiple walks and kept me informed with regular updates. Will definitely be reaching out to Mike next time I am back to the area.”

About: I say I have 10 years of pet care experience just based off of having my own dog and dog sitting other dogs. I have worked in an animal shelter in the past as well. I also had rescued a pitbull boxer who we had recently had to put down. I also have a 10 month old lab puppy, and 2 cats! I would love to have her to have someone to play with at home every once in a while. I will only be working possibly 15 to 20 hours a week at my other job. Possibly less if I have more clients with pets to watch. So I’m gonna try to keep my hours per day that I work to five hours so then I can try to be at home with the dogs a lot more. I would like to try to be outside playing or going on walks. Also cleaning up after the dog outside and or if they have an accident in the house.

About: With 15 years of hands-on pet care experience—including a decade caring for a cat with Cerebellar Hypoplasia (CH) and an elderly dog who required specialized support—I’m comfortable meeting a wide range of pet needs. I provide reliable, attentive care such as walks, feeding, playtime, and close adherence to established routines. These experiences have shaped me into a patient, compassionate, and dependable sitter who truly treats every pet like my own. I work from home in a flexible position, allowing me to adjust my schedule around both my own pets and the pets I care for through Rover. Being home throughout the day means your pet will receive consistent supervision, timely walks, feedings, potty breaks, and plenty of attention and companionship—never long stretches alone. I care for pets in my home by keeping their routines as normal as possible with regular meals, walks, playtime in our large yard, and lots of attention. Since I work from home with a flexible schedule, pets are rarely left alone and get plenty of supervision and companionship. I aim to create a calm, comfortable environment where pets feel safe and at home.

About: I’ve watched multiple of my family members dogs, ranging from big to little dogs. I enjoy spending time with animals and learning more about them. I also enjoy walking dogs around the neighborhood or to the park. I’m currently taking care of my grandma so I don’t really have a set schedule. So I’m always willing to help out. I have a dachshund and she is very nice towards animals and people so if I were to house sit she would also be very welcoming.

About: To see exactly what Happy Pups Stay With Us is all about, CHECK US OUT ON FACEBOOK “Happy pups stay with us” This isn’t a side job, this is my life! Your pup isn’t left alone. I am home all day everyday for your pup to have a happy stay while you’re away! I am passionate about Pups and want your fur baby to have as close to home experiences as they can while there here. They will have water and food 24/7. Frequent potty breaks. Most importantly non-stressful environment. I’ve worked at kennels and I’ve heard the horror story’s of inexperienced Rover sitters. This is not what I would want for my pups. I’m here for yours to not have to have this experience either. We are 100% cage free, LICENSED, and Insured. I’ve been in business for 6 yrs and worked professionally with pups for 20yrs. I am not just someone in this just trying to make money. I truly love these Pups and they do become our family. Seeing there happy wagging faces time after time and giving owners the safety and security that they can leave and not worry is exactly what makes this business a success. I do have fur baby’s of my own who will be there to be your pets best friend. I want to make a place you know when they’re here they are family! In the event they do not fancy other pups there is no need to worry I have accommodations for this too! Still Cage free, still have room to run, play, frolic like pups should. Most importantly still loved. Please give me a call with any questions or concerns you may have. I know how special your pet is to you, as mine are my baby’s and I want to have a place for you to feel they are getting the care they deserve. All pups must have up to date rabies vaccination with proof prior to their stay. This is for the safety of your pup and others and is also required by law. As I said before this isn’t a side job we are a fully established in home boarding/daycare pup paradise! I want to stress that because I’m not just someone who thought I like dogs, let me sign up and watch them. It takes yrs of experience to understand these amazing companions and how to care for them when placed in unfamiliar environment. We want them to thrive, be so comfortable they can’t wait to come back. Enjoy there stay so they have happy memories forever. Yes we all have pups but when placing them in an environment they are not used to, I know I would only allow someone fully knowledgeable of all aspects to ever watch my pup. Happy Pups Stay with Us…look us up, your pup will thank you for it! Someone is home all the time so your pup is never left alone. I offer drop off at 6am which is if your just dropping off. I have a family and to avoid them being disturbed you will only be able to drop off this early, not come in. If you’d like to come in it will have to be later in the day. Pick up: latest is 9pm unless otherwise confirmed. If you need earlier drop off you will have to schedule the night before. I have 2 fence in portions of the yard. Pups are never crated they live with us just like they are part of the family.

I currently don't have furbabies of my own, but I find them very therapeutic to interact with. Life is boring without furbabies in my life.

About: I will give your dog my full attention as well as my children. We all love animals. My children are super gentle and loving and love to take walks so finding time to take your dog for a walk will be no problem! I am home all day so your dog will get lots of attention! I am choosing to do this because the kids want a dog but I am not fully committed to buying one of our own quite yet, so dog sitting will please everyone. I have a huge yard with the option of fenced in and unfenced areas. We have very few neighbors so if your pup is a barker it will be not a problem. Lots of space to take dogs for walks without running into other people or animals.

About: I own a border collie and 2 elderly cats. I am home during the day and night. I am an avid hiker and love to take dogs for long walks in the woods. See my YouTube channel: LaceyhikesAT2026 to get to know me more. I am currently not working as I just returned from a 2200 mile hike and am looking to care for animals (as opposed to working in an office). I have availability and energy to deplete. I own my own home in rural area. My yard is nestled between a working farm and a horse pasture. I walk my border collie 3 times a day at minimum and often on trails in the woods. My animals roam free in my home and dog/cats (2 elderly) behave with confidence and happiness. My cats are indoor but one does get walked daily outside on a leash (at his insistence).
