“They are wonderful! They were so communicative and flexible. We have no doubts that our dog was loved on and well taken care of! We will happily go to them again!!”
“Amy is very pleasant and responded in a timely manner to messages. Rori was well taken care of and in good spirits when we picked her up. I would be very comfortable leaving her with Amy and Trevor again.”
“Melissa was really great and kept good care of Nash! She kept me updated and sent me pictures throughout the day without me having to ask. He was super tired when we picked him up so I could tell he had fun! I will definitely use her in the future!”
“I had a great experience! My dog can be a bit anxious (and he’s a big boy), but he was so well cared for and clearly felt comfortable. It gave me peace of mind knowing they’ve handled an English Mastiff before. I loved the daily updates and photos, and he got plenty of outdoor time which he loves. He came home happy and completely tuckered out. I'd absolutely book again!”
“Trisha was so friendly and genuinely cared for my dogs. She kept in touch with me with pictures and updates. I new they were well taken care of. I will definitely use her again.”
“Melissa and her family where fantastic with our babies. Anna and Olaf looked to be very comfortable and loved. She updated us thought our vacation and we felt that she and her family welcomed our babies with such care. We will definitely be booking with her in the future. Thank you so much for the care you showed us, we appreciate you!”
“I so appreciate how great Michelle and her family was with our fur babies. The pictures she shared and the reassuring texts were so comforting. The « kids » had a wonderful time with her.”
“We are so happy we had Larysa watch our dog Millie while we were out of town! She treated our pup like one of her own and sent us lots of updates so we felt at ease that she was in great hands. We will definitely use Larysa again and Millie will be so excited to go back!”
“Melissa‘s kindness, sincerity, and genuine warmth shine through from the moment you meet her. Her home has that same welcoming energy –comfortable safe and full of thoughtful touches. The meat-and-greet Melissa offered before the stay was generous and reassuring, and Copper, her pup, was the perfect host - basically the mayor of hospitality town! He welcomed Peanut like an old friend and immediately showed her around. Melissa was flexible, thoughtful, and attentive, and she sent photos and videos throughout Peanut’s stay that absolutely made my day. Peanut came home ready for a nap, content, and clearly well-cared for - the Holy Trinity of a perfect pup vacation! Copper even taught Peanut how to go down the stairs, which definitely deserves its own merit badge. I am grateful for people like Melissa who create a safe, honest, and welcoming space for visiting pups. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful, trustworthy, and genuinely caring home for their dog. You almost want to ask if she offers human boarding too. Melissa is agem – five stars, many tail wags, and a standing ovation from Peanut.”
“Jamie did the best job watching Mushka! I felt very at ease leaving our dog with her from our initial meeting. Her home, personality, family, and dogs were all green lights from the start! And Mushka came home after our trip relaxed and tired. Thank you Jamie and family for keeping our dog safe and happy while we were away! Made us feel anxiety free!”
“Christina B is an absolute Rockstar hero. She and her family helped my boy and I when in a tough spot. They truly extend themselves around those that come into their care. I picked him up and though he was excited to see me I know they made their home his too. I cannot express enough gratitude for her professionalism and care.”
“Our Stevie was treated very well with Nichole and her family. She was very accommodating even though it was a holiday week. We appreciated the photos and that she even took our dog out for pup cups. We would definitely recommend and use again.”
“My dog has stayed with Angie multiple times now and loves it! Staying with Angie feels like going to Disney for him :) He loves all of the room to run around and has made friends with her dogs. He can't wait for his next stay!”
“My 2 dogs love staying with Mikayla and Jerad. Always happy to see them and happy when I pick them up. It’s like they’re at home (get spoiled and lovin) which makes me happy.”

“BJ did a great job with our kitties while we were away, keeping them fed, making sure the litter was cleaned,, and spending socialization time with them. I would definitely have her watch them again!”
About: I've taken care of cats for 30 years. I enjoy finding the right enrichment tailored to the specific cat and love to relax and hang out with them. They are so smart and resourceful!
“They were super kind and approachable. We knew within a couple of minutes of meeting them that our kitties were in good hands. They kept us updated with how things were going and sent many pictures. We could see along the way that they didn't just do the basics for care, but also interacted with them as if they were there own pets. It was a great experience and we had no worries whatsoever.”
“We would HIGHLY recommend Rikki for your pet sitting needs! This was the very first time we had left our 2 rescue cats for more than a single night and we were super nervous especially since they are used to having someone home with them full-time. Rikki did a great job of taking care of all our girls' needs while we were away for a 4-day trip. She stayed overnight and left everything in our home clean and orderly. We even had a stray cat that we recently started looking after that she was more than happy to look after as well. We will for sure use Rikki in the future and are super grateful for the peace of mind she gave us to truly enjoy our vacation!”
About: My significant other and I live in a house with 3 dogs. We take our dogs (who are more like our kids)on a walk in our neighborhood or fenced in backyard and let them run around at least twice a day! Our dogs are spoiled and loved as they should be! We play ball and snuggle and they sleep with us too:) We'd love to love your pet while you're away! I work part time at WagZone dog day care so I have a lot of free time for my own pups. I love walks, hikes on our land outside of time or just fetch time in the yard. Fenced in yard allows dogs to run freely all day with a dog door to a sheltered garage. My dogs get along with all other souls.
“Trudy was timely and professional, spent time playing with/petting my cats while I was away! It is nice to have somebody give them human interaction rather than a stop and go. Would book again!”
About: I have had dogs my entire adult life, up to 7 at one time, including a husky. I now only have 1, since I had to move and left the rest with my old roommate (some were his anyway, and I took the one that had chosen me as his human). Every dog I've ever had was properly trained to at least sit on command - with or without a treat. When I had the 7, I could have the pack surround me, and call them one by one for their treat, and only the one called would reach. People have watched my dog's behavior out in public and have aske if I could train their dogs! I have no formal training for dog training, but I did grow up watching Caesar on Animal Planet, and implemented his behavior training techniques with all of my own dogs when they were puppies, or from the time I accepted them in as strays. I have cared for others pets in the past, but not in a professional capacity. I sat for a friend of mine at her house, caring for 3 dogs and a cat. I fed the cat in the morning and at night and cleaned her litter box once a day. The dogs got fed on the same schedule, and spent the majority of the day outside in the fenced back yard unless it was raining. I went outside and threw balls and sticks for them a few times each day, for about an hour or so each time. I currently do not have a job, so I am available full time, any day or time. I have my own dog who prefers to not let me out of his sight, and will cry if I leave him at home alone, so getting a traditional job while living in an apartment is out of the question. With that said, I would need to bring him with me. He is going on 10 years old, and has never met a dog or person he didn't love. I am glad to bring him for a meet and greet before any commitments are made. Every dog has a way to let you know they need something. My dog prefers to attempt cuddles when he needs anything, leaving me playing a guessing game until I get it right. He gets super excited when I get it right! As a senior dog, I leave his food out 24/7, and check it in the mornings when I get up and at night when I go to bed to make sure it's not empty. If I notice that it's empty at any point during the day, I simply refill it. Same with his water. His potty schedule is pretty much the same - first thing in the morning, any time he asks during the day, and then one last trip out at bedtime. I know not every dog can follow this schedule, but I have also had dogs who needed me to set alarms to take them out every hour or two, until they were properly house trained. All I need from you is your dogs schedule.
“Brittany did a wonderful job watching our two cats. We have a cat who gets anxious when we leave and tends to pee on furniture or clothes if we are gone more than a day or two. We were gone for five days and there were no such incidents thanks to Brittany’s attentive care. Our animals seemed happy and content as if we hadn’t left at all, and it was such a relief to come home to relaxed animals in a clean home. 10/10, thank you Brittany!”
About: I’ve had pets my whole life. I’ve worked in a doggie daycare. I’ll work with any pet you need and any age. I’ll care your pets like they are my own. Loving and caring. I can train dogs with leash pulling or when they are starting new. I’m available anytime of the day Monday through Saturday. I can even work Sunday if you need me too. I am flexible with schedule. It’s up to you and your schedule. I currently have no fence for my doggos. I have my senior dog on a lead and put my puppies on a leash. My senior pup has medicine and I give them to her in the mornings right after she goes outside. If you have questions for me, I’ll answer them.
About: I will do early morning or late evening walks to avoid burning you furry friends paw pads, and i take into consideration every little detail! I have done dog sitting and walking since I was 10 and provided exceptional care for family members, friends, and community members. While taking on early morning or late night walks, medications and a wide range of dog breeds and ages! I love spending time with dogs and giving them the exercise or simple love and attention they deserve! I am currently attending Dakota Wesleyan University and pursuing a degree in Sports Psychology! I care for my own two dogs and love taking care of others! I would love to provide early morning, late evening, or afternoon walks for your fur babies to ensure the heat/cold does not harm them! In my clients home I ensure that the pets are safely taken care of, always have enough water and food, and get the exercise they need throughout the day. If any messes are made they are cleaned immediately and I even will help clean around the house with no extra charge!
About: Hi! I’m Zoe, a dependable and attentive pet sitter who truly enjoys caring for cats and their unique personalities. While I haven’t owned a cat myself, I’ve cared for many cats for family and friends and am comfortable with everything from playful, social cats to more independent or shy ones. I understand that every cat has their own routine and boundaries, and I take the time to make sure they feel safe, respected, and comfortable in their space. Whether that means playtime, quiet companionship, feeding, litter box care, or just giving them space, I’m happy to adjust to what your cat needs. I’m also a registered nurse, so I’m detail-oriented, responsible, and comfortable handling special instructions, medications, or extra care if needed. My background has made me very observant and reliable—qualities that are especially important when caring for pets in their home. I have a flexible schedule and will make sure your cat is well cared for while keeping you updated for peace of mind.
About: I’m a calm, nurturing, and reliable pet sitter who genuinely enjoys caring for animals of all kinds. I grew up with pets and currently have both a cat and a dog, so I understand how important it is to leave your pets with someone you trust!
About: I grew up on a hobby farm with almost any critter you could imagine. We used our space to foster and rehabilitate animals, mostly dogs, cats, and horses. Through working with local humane societies, animal trainers, and breeders I think I have a very good understanding of animal behaviors and how to manage them. Working with animals has been a soul salve in my life and I love guiding animals through all stages of learning. I have slots of time all throughout my week where I am available to walk and check in on pets. Sunday is a free day. Monday and Tuesday I am free after 12, Wednesday-Friday I am free 6am-12, 5pm throughout the evening. Unfortunately at this moment I do not have a space that would allow to to board pets, but I am able to care for pets in their own homes. I am very communicative and I will work with you on your pet's specific needs and requirements, as well as any enrichment activities you would like to try.
“Id highly recommend Anna ! I appreciate how she kept in good contact about my cat during my vacation; and she maintained my apartment perfectly while I was gone. She gives off nothing but a positive vibe 🙂”
“Miss Madison is amazing! She took such great care of both my babies. She boarded my senior dog and did drop in visits on my cat. Madison also has a senior dog so it was nice for him to have a companion he could keep up with! She sent lots of pictures and updates during my trip that gave me the warm and fuzzies that my animals were in great care. I plan to book with her again soon! Thank you again Miss Madison!”

About: My husband and I both love dogs and have one of our own, a black lab/blue heeler mix who keeps us active and entertained!

Because I work remotely, I’m home most of the day and able to give dogs lots of attention🥰 Walks and outdoor time are already a regular part of my day, so caring for dogs fits naturally into my routine I only take up to 2 dogs per day to keep things calm, comfortable, and low-stress for everyone.

About: Hi! My name is Melissa and I'm so happy to be here! I have 15 years of experience caring for and walking my own dogs, and sitting for friends and family. I know the importance of getting some exercise in for your fur friend, and how challenging it can be to find the time some days! So I am here to help, let me take care of that task for you! I enjoy walking and being outdoors and I'd love to have your pup accompany me! I also own my own home with a fully fenced in backyard, and I work full time from home, so if you need boarding or daycare services, my home would be great for you! I have two pups of my own that absolutely love other dogs, so if you are ok with that, we'd love to care for and keep your pup with us, too! I work from home full time, so it’s easy to attend to my pups (and yours!) during the workday. I can make a lunch hour walk or drop work easily. And afternoons and evenings are pretty open! I have a fully fenced in yard and I am able to let my dogs out as often as they need, and they would be perfect companions for your pups when staying here as well
About: I have been dog sitting and babysitting for as long as I can remember! I come from a small town, so I spent lots of time going to neighbors’ houses and letting them out while they went on vacation. I have watched pets ranging from the ages 4 months to 16 years. I know how to properly give them medication, groom them, play with them, and much more. I currently am working part time as a receptionist currently, but am in search of a SAH position so I will be home a lot. My schedule is very flexible and I would love to care for your furry friends! I live in a neighborhood near an off-leash dog park that my dog loves to spend time at. I like to take my dog to lakes to go swimming as well, if yours enjoys the water! We have a lot of open space in our home for the dogs to run and play, as well as toys!
“Kacey welcomed my little Eevee girl with open arms into her home on short notice. She took very good care of Eevee, taking her on multiple walks and treating her as if she was family. We were on vacation camping, and Kacey provided a very relaxing day for my dog as we explored the many attractions Sioux Falls had to offer.”
“One of the VERY FEW people we trust to watch our pups.💛 Always quick to respond & is great with updates too! They love hanging with her pup & are always so excited when we pull up to her house!”
About: I've been lucky enough to have a dog in my life since I was young. I have raised many puppies of different breeds and I have experience with various personalities.

The past 4 years I did conservation detection work with my pups and now I am currently working as a dog trainer in Sioux Falls. I specialize in scent work, cooperative care, and tailoring enrichment to the individual dog. I'm currently working part time so I have plenty of free time to take your dogs out exploring and adventuring. I can take them on shorter or longer walks depending on what you need. I follow any guidelines left by the dogs' person to take care of them and keep them on a routine so they are as stress free and safe as possible.
“Oliver loved being at Lauren and Corey’s house. They took great care of him and made our first experience with Rover wonderful. We will definitely be contacting them again when we need care for him in the future.”
About: Hi everyone - I was a mom to older English Bulldogs who have recently passed and understand the need for a sitter at times. I used to use a dog sitter myself during the day and understand how hard it can be to get home sometimes! Now that my doggos are no longer with me, I would love to help you out. I work from home so can accept daycare or overnight boarding at my place. I live in a safe neighborhood and have a fenced in backyard for all of the potty breaks and I can also bring them on short walks if requested. I live in a zero-entry, one-level home with no steps which is great for pets with bad joints.
About: I have been a dog owner and lover for most of my life. I currently do not have a dog in the home, so I can focus full-time on your furry family members.

I am also a runner, and would love to take any dogs with me who love to run. We have a fenced in yard, and a dog room in our basement for naps. We also have a couch in the main living area that's just for dogs, but they are also welcome to sit on our couch or in our recliner chair.

“My pups love walking with Kelsey and she is super attentive with them! We'll be happy to stick with her for as long as she's walking in Brandon. She's super courteous and cleans up properly after the pups and gives them treats. Super happy with her walks.”
About: Growing up, I’ve always loved and cared for dogs. Now that I have my own, I understand the feeling of having someone care for them the way you do. I work a full-time job from Monday to Thursday, and sometimes I have mandatory Fridays. However, I’m more than happy to assist on weekends or weekdays after 5 PM, and I’m also available on Fridays if my work schedule allows. I reside in an apartment, but I thoroughly enjoy taking them for daily walks and visits to the dog park, every day, other day, depending on my schedule.

I also provide attentive, patient care for senior dogs who may need extra monitoring and comfort. i am currently in college with prn jobs but i have plenty of time throughout the week to spend time taking care of your animals. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. I follow the owner’s instructions for feeding schedules, exercise, medication if needed, and any specific care requirements. Pets receive plenty of attention, playtime, and supervision to make sure they feel safe and relaxed while their owner is away. For puppies, I help reinforce routines like potty training, crate training, and positive behaviors. For senior dogs, I provide a calmer environment, frequent check-ins, and extra attention to comfort and mobility.

About: Hi! I’m Zoe, a reliable and compassionate dog lover with a lifetime of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. I grew up around dogs and have always had a natural connection with them—from energetic puppies to older dogs who need a little extra patience and care. I genuinely love being active, so long walks, playtime, and getting outside with your dog are something I look forward to. Whether your pup is big, small, shy, or full of energy, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at and make sure they feel safe and cared for. I’m also a registered nurse, which means I’m attentive, responsible, and comfortable handling a wide range of needs—including giving medications or caring for older dogs who may need extra support. My background caring for both patients and my own grandparents has shaped me into someone who is patient, observant, and dependable. My schedule is flexible, and I’m committed to providing consistent, loving care while you’re away. I’ll treat your dog like my own and keep you updated so you have peace of mind. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I have a flexible schedule as a nurse. On my days off, I have full availability for walks, drop-ins, or extended visits. On workdays, I’m still able to provide consistent care like morning walks/visits, evening check-ins, feeding, and quality time. I’m used to planning my schedule ahead, so I make sure each pet gets reliable, attentive care and isn’t rushed. I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and consistent environment for every pet. In a client’s home, I carefully follow all instructions, routines, and preferences to keep pets comfortable and stress-free. I’m attentive to details like feeding schedules, medications, and behavior changes. I always ensure doors, gates, and leashes are secure during visits and walks. With my nursing background, I’m observant, responsible, and quick to respond if anything seems off, so your pet is always in safe, trustworthy hands.

About: Growing up I've always had pets of all shapes and sizes. My household was almost like a shelter because we would often take in strays and friends pets they could not longer care for. Neighbors and friends would also ask me to pet sit while they away or check in/walk their animal if they're gone too long. Because of all this I've cared for many cats and dogs of various ages so I understand what kind of care each animal may need. I'm currently working part time with a very flexible schedule so I'll always have time to care. I'm also almost always around on holidays! At home I have three cats and two dogs (I'm not the only caretaker), and they're all incredibly friendly. Our house is a little small so another location is preferred.
About: I grew up on a hobby farm with almost any critter you could imagine. We used our space to foster and rehabilitate animals, mostly dogs, cats, and horses. Through working with local humane societies, animal trainers, and breeders I think I have a very good understanding of animal behaviors and how to manage them. Working with animals has been a soul salve in my life and I love guiding animals through all stages of learning. I have slots of time all throughout my week where I am available to walk and check in on pets. Sunday is a free day. Monday and Tuesday I am free after 12, Wednesday-Friday I am free 6am-12, 5pm throughout the evening. Unfortunately at this moment I do not have a space that would allow to to board pets, but I am able to care for pets in their own homes. I am very communicative and I will work with you on your pet's specific needs and requirements, as well as any enrichment activities you would like to try.
“Madison was incredible. She helped us out last minute and was incredibly flexible and very easy to communicate with. Our dog absolutely loved her. We will definitely be booking with her again!”

About: I have always had dogs or cats. Also a horse, turtle and fish. Had several lifelong dogs that have crossed the rainbow bridge. Not ready for my own at this point but have time available to help you with yours. I am a full time realtor and work from home so my schedule is flexible. Dogs could come with on trips to Sioux Falls or stay with my husband. My 2 yr old granddaughter stays with us on the weekends and loves animals. I have several acres off a gravel road secluded by trees. No fence but can tie out for potty breaks. Would love to take walks at the nearby state parks.
About: I am looking forward to working with you and your pets! I am in love with dogs and am waiting to get one of my own; I am a definite dog person and enjoy being outdoors, walking/running with a leash in my hand. My family has had dogs throughout my whole life, and I appreciate the companionship that a dog can give. I am in Sioux Falls and would like to work with a dog of any size. Let me know if you have any questions at all! One of my favorite things is to go home (NE South Dakota) and walk my sisters dog - the perfect stress relief with my puppy nephew, a chocolate lab named Rudy. I am hopeful that I will make a bond with your pet and help take some stress off of you!

He came home happy and completely tuckered out. I'd absolutely book again!”

“Jamie did the best job watching Mushka! I felt very at ease leaving our dog with her from our initial meeting. Her home, personality, family, and dogs were all green lights from the start! And Mushka came home after our trip relaxed and tired. Thank you Jamie and family for keeping our dog safe and happy while we were away! Made us feel anxiety free!”
“Christina B is an absolute Rockstar hero. She and her family helped my boy and I when in a tough spot. They truly extend themselves around those that come into their care. I picked him up and though he was excited to see me I know they made their home his too. I cannot express enough gratitude for her professionalism and care.”

About: I have my own fur babies of 5 cats and one 16 year old dog. House is a little chaotic but loving and caring. Each animal has their own needs and I provide them with everything in the world and more. Anything that will work around my college schedule will be most beneficial. Part time jobs can be hard in this economy especially with 18 credit hours this semester. Being able to cuddle and hangout with animals while I can maintain school work sounds like a blast. Your pets are not just pets but they are your babies. I will take care of them like I take care of my own fur babies. They will become one of my fur babies while I take care of them. My pets get their medicine on time, fed on time, and always have water available. Litter boxes get cleaned regularly to keep up with odors.
“Zach has watched our highly anxious dog twice now and he has done such a great job both times!! We can enjoy our vacations knowing our dog is in such great hands with Zach!”
