“Lauren is amazing! She watched my two dogs last minute, followed their feeding and medication schedule, took them on walks, and sent lots of photos and updates.

Highly recommend and will definitely be booking again!”

“Alise was a wonderful dog sitter for our Dog Alfie. She spent a good 45 minutes for a meet and greet with us to make sure he was comfortable with her and her dog Cesar. Alfie stayed for 4 days and he seemed so happy when we picked him up. He was very comfortable with both Alise and her fiancé. We will definitely use Alise again In the future!!”
“Maria was so kind and patient with my spoiled rotten doodle! I know my pup can be a handful, and I know she had a hard time being away from me for the first time overnight, but Maria did everything possible to keep her happy. She also was wonderful about working with me on pickup and drop off! Traffic was terrible, and she was very accommodating. Thank you, Maria!”

“Was in a bind trying to find a place for my dogs since where they usually go, the vet was booked. I searched and came across Faylnn after reading her reviews I decided to contact her, she responded fast and gladly accepted watching my 2 dogs. I also have chickens and she was more than happy to feed them and give them water while I was out of town. My dogs loved her, she allowed my Chinese crested to be her moody self and catered to my rambunctious Frenchie with no complaints. She provided me with daily updates,pictures and summary of their day. I highly recommend Falynn if your pets are like your children and you want the best possible care, and the peace of mind they are being well taken care of then you need to send them to Falynn!!!”

“Amazing first time pet sitting using this service. Robert took exceptional care of the critters and other house items (mail, watering plants). He was conscientious and provided great updates during the visits. We can absolutely recommend him to anyone looking to trust their critters to him for care.”
“Mia, as always, took great care of our sometimes crazy orange fur baby. She also left our home cleaned and in order. We will always continue to book her as long as she is pet and house. None better!”
“Kirsten is a great pet sitter. We have 5 cats and she fed, provided fresh water, and cleaned out several litter boxes for 4 days for them. I appreciated her willingness to help me with this job. Kirsten sent plenty of pictures and my kitties like her. She did an excellent job.”
About: Growing up I always had a cat and had relatives who had cats. In the last year my best friend adopted a kitten and I helped them out with all the new experiences they encountered being a new cat owner.

I love being able to play with cats and given them scratches and make sure they always have a comfy spot to lay!

After living with cats, I Iearned through trial & error on how to make my house cat safe because they are very curious & love to get into things or knock them over 😂

“We have used Shannon a few times to watch our pup, Bruiser, and I cannot recommend her enough! Bruiser absolutely LOVES going to her house. He gets so excited the second we pull into her driveway, which gives me so much peace of mind knowing he feels comfortable, safe, and happy there. Shannon is dependable, caring, and treats him like one of her own. She is also very responsive and even sends pics of my baby while I’m away! I know he is in good hands when he is with her. Will be using her as much as we can!”
“I appreciate that Brennan took Lexi and Sundae for several hours of daycare without having a lot of time to plan ahead. That help was tremendous, and the girls seemed to have a great time. Thank you Brennan for sending the photos during their stay.”

About: I’ve had my own 3 dogs for the last 6 years. Before that, I would take care of my friends animals. I often dog sit and cat sit for close friends and family. Figured I would do it on here, too! I have trained all of my dogs, nothing crazy. Just the basics. One of my dogs does have health issues and another has really bad allergies so I definitely know what it’s like to have a certain routine per animal. All my animals needs are different and I’m here to provide that to lessen your stress ☺️ All day, all night!!! I am also able to travel. I drive a lot so I don’t mind if I have to travel a bit. I would love for the pet owners to give me a run down no matter what! Even if your animal is low maintenance. My dogs are high maintenance so I’m also used to that. I just like specific instructions, I feel it makes it easier for everyone involved! Especially if I’m pet sitting in your home. That’s your safe space.
“Jacquelyn was absolutely great with my 90lb German Shepherd. She kept me updated the entire time and made sure he was back safely in our home. Highly recommend for daily dog walks.”
“Lindsey was great - she came by to meet and greet our high maintenance special needs dog and spent 2 hours trying to make him comfortable. She was great with Sadie for their walk! Very good with dogs!”

More involved medication administration, including injections or medications requiring significant additional time, may be subject to a higher fee. 🐾 Intact dogs: A $5/day surcharge may apply to unspayed or unneutered dogs due to the additional supervision and management required in a multi-dog home. 🐾 Early/late pickup or drop-off: A $15 fee may apply when arrival or departure falls outside the agreed-upon scheduling window. 🐾 Last-minute bookings: Bookings requested within 24 hours of drop-off are subject to a $20 last-minute booking fee. 🐾 Daycare over 8 hours: Daycare stays exceeding 8 hours are subject to the regular overnight boarding rate. 🐾 Pickup/drop-off transportation: Transportation may be available by arrangement for an additional fee. I’ll always communicate any applicable additional charges with you before modifying a booking whenever possible. My goal is to keep everything transparent while making sure every dog receives the time and attention they deserve. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. I can provide care before and after work and come home at lunch for walks or check-ins. I dedicate my weekends entirely to being at home with pets. I prioritize safety by ensuring a pet-proof environment in my home and following all instructions provided by owners. Whether caring for pets in my home or yours, I maintain a clean, calm, and comforting space. I’m reliable and treat every pet as if they were my own.

About: Background/experience in veterinary medicine. I am very comfortable with giving medication, taking care of special needs/senior pets. I treat every pet as if they are my own. I currently own my own equine business which means I set my own hours. I am a very active person so including other animal duties into my daily life is not difficult.

Even if that means sitting on the floor while they take a nap so they don't feel alone.

I have watched every animal you can think of(horses goats, reptiles, fish, dogs, cats, ducks, chickens, donkeys etc so no animal is out of my comfort zone! I am also cpr, first aid certified with dogs!

I also plan my calendar carefully to avoid overbooking and ensure each pet gets quality time. When I pet sit in someone’s home, I treat their pets and space with the same respect and care I would my own. I follow all feeding, medication, and routine instructions closely to ensure the pets stay healthy and comfortable. I spend quality time playing with them, walking them if needed, and making sure they feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I also keep the home tidy, bring in mail or packages, water plants if requested, and provide regular updates and photos so the owners can relax knowing their pets and home are in good hands.

“Lauren is amazing! She watched my two dogs last minute, followed their feeding and medication schedule, took them on walks, and sent lots of photos and updates.

Highly recommend and will definitely be booking again!”

“Maria was so kind and patient with my spoiled rotten doodle! I know my pup can be a handful, and I know she had a hard time being away from me for the first time overnight, but Maria did everything possible to keep her happy. She also was wonderful about working with me on pickup and drop off! Traffic was terrible, and she was very accommodating. Thank you, Maria!”

“Was in a bind trying to find a place for my dogs since where they usually go, the vet was booked. I searched and came across Faylnn after reading her reviews I decided to contact her, she responded fast and gladly accepted watching my 2 dogs. I also have chickens and she was more than happy to feed them and give them water while I was out of town. My dogs loved her, she allowed my Chinese crested to be her moody self and catered to my rambunctious Frenchie with no complaints. She provided me with daily updates,pictures and summary of their day. I highly recommend Falynn if your pets are like your children and you want the best possible care, and the peace of mind they are being well taken care of then you need to send them to Falynn!!!”
