“Jessica and her spouse are great!! They have a huge yard. Jessica clearly has a ton of experience watching dogs. She is responsive. We got plenty of photos of our pup during his stay. Meet and greet and drop off/pickup were smooth. Jessica doesn’t crate dogs unless you want her to and they have enough space to separate dogs if they’re not getting along, which I appreciated. I felt my pup was safe and well cared for during his stay, and I know he loved running in the yard! I would recommend Jessica to others and will definitely book again.”
“Left our Cavapoo of 21 months old with Andrew & Karen for a first time away from home boarding for 7 days, 6 nights. They were wonderful with him showing care 'n cuddles immediately. Andrew provided updates & photos/videos daily which eased our concerns. Did everything they said they would following Quincey's routine. Slow socialization w/their dog Finn was nicely provided & slowly helped our dog get to know others. Walks together was great to see. Laid back and easy to work with as petsitters. Appreciated them both accepting our dog into their home as one of their own. Would definitely recommend them as petsitters & will be happy to book again in the future. Thanks again Andrew & Karen!”
“Amy did a fabulous job with caring for my 2 dogs! She sent photos and updates which were very much appreciated! She’s knowledgeable about dogs so I felt super comfortable with her watching my dogs. Would definitely use her again and recommend her to all who need her services!”
“Heather did a great job with Tucker. She sent me updates and pictures every day. She made Tucker feel at home and took great care of him. I could tell he was very comfortable there. She was also very accommodating with our schedule. I would highly recommend her to take great care of your dog and will definitely book again with her.”
“Highly recommend. Our boy was well taken care of with daily updates and pictures. He loved playing with her dogs and actually came home pretty tired from all the activity. Will definitely be using Melissa again.”
“Jordan took great care of my dog Keira. I made the request at the last minute on a Friday and was able to drop her off within an hour. I’d recommend Jordan for others in the future!”
“Wonderful, awesome. Amanda is a lovely caring lady, she adores animals like we do. Our fur kids had a great time and the best care whilst we were away. We had picture and updates regularly. Planning our Xmas holidays now and will be requesting Amanda for all our bookings from now on. A 10 out of 10.”
“Nancy was absolutely amazing with my dog! She sent lots of pictures which I greatly appreciated. I could tell he was having a great time and was well loved and cared for. Nancy and Butch are lovely people and I highly recommend their services!!”
“Coralee and her family welcomed Baxter and he loved being there. I was concerned because Baxter has a health issue that he has to get pill 3 times a day and I was worried that he wouldn't take them but Coralee said he took them like a champ. I would highly recommend Coralee”
“My pup spent a week with Lindsay and her family and I couldn’t be happier with how attentive she was to my dog’s needs through the entire process. She provided many updates so that I knew my pup was happy and enjoying himself. I can tell that my furball will be so happy to go back!”
“Tamakia was very great with communication from the start. She gave my dog the attention he needed and sent updates and pics throughout his stay. He received plenty of outside time and was able to make himself at home during his stay.”
“Steve was awesome with our pitbull mix, Ruby. She’s a big sweet girl but we’ve had a hard time finding people who are comfortable with large breeds. She also is very afraid of thunder/storms and he was really great with her during some serious weather. Sent lots of awesome photos and kept us updated which we really appreciated! Would definitely recommend him to anyone!”
“Mar is great to Molly. Even when a family emergency came up and I had to extend the visit unexpectedly, Mar was super helpful and accommodating. Molly gets excited when we pull up to the house, so I know she is in good hands and has a great time when she's there.”
“Beatriz was absolutely amazing! My dog Athena had the best weekend with her, she sent plenty of amazing pictures and Athena looked so happy and was wagging her tail in every one. She also made Athena the cutest bandana and sent us home with her favorite treats! If I could give her 10 stars I would, I’m so happy I was able to trust that my dog would be well taken care of and loved while we were away, we will definitely be using her again and highly recommend her to everyone!”
“Im sure Gus would have liked to go on vacation with us, but I'm pretty sure he would give Annettes house five stars too. He got all the love and attention that he desires and he came home a happy boy!”

About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience caring for animals and my background in healthcare as a nursing student. I understand the importance of being responsible, attentive, and dependable. I'm patient with pets of all personalities and always take the time to make them feel comfortable and safe. I carefully follow owners' instructions, maintain pets' routines, and provide plenty of love, exercise, and companionship. I also enjoy sending photo and text updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for while you're away.
About: Cats have always been a big part of my life. While I’m currently in college, I’ve grown up caring for multiple cats at home in West Virginia, including my own fur baby, Emma Dot, and another cat named Jasmine in Bethel. I’m experienced in providing attentive, loving care and understand what it takes to keep your cat happy, comfortable, and well cared for.
“Ja’Vae was a great sitter to work with! She was quick to communicate, very flexible, and totally understanding. She sent lots of photos and ensured my pet would be in good hands for the week. I came home to both a happy cat and a very clean apartment. Thank you so much!”
About: I had a few cats when I was a kid. While most of my experience is with dogs, my mom owns three cats and I have taken care of them while she has gone on vacation many times! I am a genuine animal lover and I adore cats just as much as dogs.
About: Hi! My name is Plachette, and I've lived with various pets since I was a child. My father was a dog breeder (pitbulls <3), so being surrounded by puppies and dogs is something I've become accustomed to! I have experience with dog walking and sitting multiple breeds at once and administering medication as instructed. While dog sitting at your home, I'll also tend to any messes that are made, bring your newspapers/packages/mail, and give you thorough daily updates of what's going on around the home. Upon request I'm able to provide proof of having 5 star ratings for 150+ services I've already completed for other pet parents. For dog walks, I'm capable of handling small to gigantic dogs. I can work with dogs that pull. I prefer to use a waist leash (I have my own) while walking dogs since it allows me to be hands free and have more control with your pet. Of course, if you prefer your pet's own leash, that's fine too. :) I am self-employed so I am able to make my own schedule for work days and hours. If extended stays or additional pets need longer periods of care, I can adjust to these changes. When pet owners provide me with particular details on how to care for their pets (feeding schedules, administering medication, crating, etc.), I will be a able to provide proper care for any pet.
About: I have always lived with cats in the house. I work with cats at PetSmart cleaning the cages, giving food and water, and socializing the cats. I have a flexible schedule. I am on weekdays and weekends in the morning, afternoon, and night. I am happy to see your pet at anytime. I respect cats if they do not want to interact with me. I will back away from the cats if they seem angry or scared.

About: Both my grandmother and brother have cats, so I’ve grown up understanding and appreciating what it takes to care for them—ensuring their enrichment, exercise, proper nutrition, and happiness. I also had the amazing opportunity to attend zoo camp, where I learned valuable skills in animal care and behavior. This experience deepened my knowledge of how to create engaging environments for pets, tailored to their needs. I’m detail-oriented, reliable, and genuinely enjoy going the extra mile for animals, whether that means administering medications with care or making sure the litter box is spotless. I believe every pet deserves a happy and healthy experience, and I’m committed to providing just that!

“I was definitely a nervous new mom dropping Rosie off with someone I just met but Jordan was kind, patient, and thorough. She is also extremely knowledgeable and supportive. Rosie had the best day on her farm!”
About: I've been caring for dogs my entire life and have looked after countless pets for family and friends over the years. I genuinely love spending time with dogs and enjoy caring for them while their owners are on vacation, at work, or simply need an extra hand. I work full-time from home, which means your dog will have plenty of companionship and attention throughout the day. My home office is set up in a spare bedroom where your pup can relax with me while I work. I also have flexibility to provide walks in the morning, during my lunch break, and in the evening. I'm very affectionate with animals and will care for your dog as if they were my own. I love keeping dogs mentally and physically engaged through playtime, enrichment puzzles, treats (with your approval), and lots of one-on-one attention. My lunch break is dedicated to spending quality time with them so they get plenty of interaction throughout the day. For overnight stays, your dog will have a comfortable space of their own in our living room. You're welcome to bring their crate, favorite blanket, or bed if that helps them feel more at home. I also have both a small and a large dog bed available to accommodate different sizes. Dogs are welcome on the furniture and are treated like part of the family, though they will sleep in their own designated area rather than in my bed. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, loved, and right at home while you're away, giving you peace of mind that they're in caring hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work full-time from home. This allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day rather than leaving pets alone for long periods. I typically schedule walks in the morning, during my lunch break, and in the evening, with plenty of attention and cuddle time in between. My flexible work schedule also allows me to accommodate boarding, daycare, drop-in visits, and dog walks. Whether your pet needs an active day of play or a quiet place to relax while you're away, I'm able to provide consistent care and supervision to help them feel comfortable and at home. Your pet's safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and any special needs before their stay so I can provide consistent, personalized care. I supervise pets throughout the day since I work from home, ensuring they always have access to fresh water, regular potty breaks, exercise, and plenty of attention. My home is clean, calm, and pet-friendly, with comfortable spaces for dogs to relax and unwind. I closely monitor interactions, keep doors and gates secure, and only provide treats or activities that have been approved by the owner. If I'm caring for your pet in your home, I'll follow your instructions carefully to maintain their normal routine, keep your home tidy, and provide updates with photos so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for.

About: Animals have been a passion of mine my entire life! I have owned and loved cats and dogs of all ages and sizes since I was 10. I would love to show that same love to your babies, too! I am available to do in-house stays, walking, play dates, and much more! I work full-time, but work from home so that makes it easy for me to care for your furry friend. My weekends are usually filled with playing with my puppies, but I would love to make time for your pets to join us for walks or play dates! I have a fenced in yard and an open floor plan home that allows for plenty of room to play, rain or shine. I live on a quiet street that makes walking your pet a breeze. All doors remain shut in my home to ensure no nosy pups can get in to things that they should not. I am big on taking pictures and can keep you updated on the status of your pet to ensure you feel comfortable with leaving your pet in my care!
About: Although this account is under my name, this is a team effort with my wife. We’re a young, energetic couple who have all the time and patience your pup deserves. A fully fenced yard out back provides a great place for playtime, and there’s always a spot on the couch to hang out with us. We have raised rates due to high demand going into the summer. If you’re a returning client, please reach out and if there are any issues with cost, we can work something out. I work a 9-to-5 schedule from home and I tend to spend a lot of my free time there as well. My wife is also home most of the day, so we have plenty of time throughout the week to give your dog the attention they need! My fully fenced yard, quiet house and neighborhood are perfect for dogs who are looking to relax on their vacation, but I have plenty of energy to walk and play with them too. Your dog will be hosted by our Bernedoodle, Finn, who loves making new friends.

About: Who can love your little ones as you do? I was licensed for child daycare in Colorado for over 10 years. We are animal lovers and guardians of two little dogs. Adults who love and understand the needs of little fur babies. We would love to get to know your special one too. Please make sure you add all of the info for the vet you use. All dogs will need to be current on vaccines and flea and tick care. Please keep in mind when you pay for one day it covers you for 24 hrs. So if you bring your baby at 6 a.m. you will be covered till 6 a.m. the following day. Any hours after that is $6.00 an hour. If you book for more than a weekend, I can be flexible (1 to 2 hrs) due to flight delays, etc. Thank you! I'm currently not working outside home so no matter what your little ones will have someone here at all times. I feed everyone seperately and we walk when weather permits. We have potty pads available for comfort in between outings. I allow access to my whole home and will enjoy a walk once a day or more weather permitting. We have a great time individually and daily with all our little ones.
“Beatriz was amazing!!! She was so willing to help us in a bind for a last minute booking and we are so glad we met her! We have 2 chihuahua mixes; one is very anxious and can be a handful sometimes. He is quite fearful of new people, animals, and places. Within minutes of us dropping the dogs off, Beatriz texted me photos of both dogs playing in a pack with others and even snuggling up with her soaking up the attention! It was amazing. She is so patient and kind. Truly someone we would certainly trust with our dogs again!”

I am recently retired and no longer have a dog of my own as she passed last Christmas. Finding myself with alot of extra time, I know that caring for Pups would be a happy solution. As we no longer have a dog of our own, we do keep our kids dogs alot. We have a huge yard and stay with the dogs when they are outside. One is a Frenchie and the other a Bernese.

About: My mom runs a rescue, so I have taken care of countless animals while fostering them. I also have 7 cats and 5 dogs which brings a lot of experience.

My dogs and cats are friendly to any other animal, but I am able to crate the pet if needed.

Or I can bring your fur baby to my home. I have two golden retrievers. I can even set up your pet in the lower level (where I would also stay) if your fur baby needs to be away from my two. I have a fenced yard, multiple dog doors, and we love walks! Also lots of beds and couches to snuggle up on! We live on the water and the pups can stick there paws in the water if they would like.

“Left our Cavapoo of 21 months old with Andrew & Karen for a first time away from home boarding for 7 days, 6 nights. They were wonderful with him showing care 'n cuddles immediately. Andrew provided updates & photos/videos daily which eased our concerns. Did everything they said they would following Quincey's routine. Slow socialization w/their dog Finn was nicely provided & slowly helped our dog get to know others. Walks together was great to see. Laid back and easy to work with as petsitters. Appreciated them both accepting our dog into their home as one of their own. Would definitely recommend them as petsitters & will be happy to book again in the future. Thanks again Andrew & Karen!”

“My pup spent a week with Lindsay and her family and I couldn’t be happier with how attentive she was to my dog’s needs through the entire process. She provided many updates so that I knew my pup was happy and enjoying himself. I can tell that my furball will be so happy to go back!”
“Tamakia was very great with communication from the start. She gave my dog the attention he needed and sent updates and pics throughout his stay. He received plenty of outside time and was able to make himself at home during his stay.”
“Steve was awesome with our pitbull mix, Ruby. She’s a big sweet girl but we’ve had a hard time finding people who are comfortable with large breeds. She also is very afraid of thunder/storms and he was really great with her during some serious weather. Sent lots of awesome photos and kept us updated which we really appreciated! Would definitely recommend him to anyone!”

I can feel confident leaving Hank with her, knowing that he will be in good hands, and I highly recommend Alex to any pet parent.”
“Joe is a great pet-sitter. He really takes the time to get to know your dog and the owner.

I felt very comfortable leaving MiMi with him and will definitely be using him in the future. I highly recommend him :) ”
