“My first time away from the pups and frankly I was nervous. Aric kept me informed on them and it was obvious they were treated like they were “family”. It gave me peace of mind and I was able to enjoy my time. ( I think they ? also enjoyed their “staycation” from me ?)”

“Kallie is very kind and very knowledgeable about dogs. My Charlie was given a lot of attention and excellent care during his stay in her home. I amany photos daily, which eliminated my anxiety about leaving him in someone else's home. I will definitely hire Kallie again to keep my Charlie when I have to travel.”

“Lyndsey was great with our pups! This was our first time leaving them with someone they didn't know, so we were nervous...but she sent us plenty of updates and pictures which eased our minds. We definitely recommend her and I'm sure we will be using her again in the future.”

“I couldn’t have asked for a better place to board our dog! DeRee and her husband took great care of Apollo and sent us updates daily. On top of all that they took him in on very short notice, so we’re extremely grateful for that as well. Will use again!”

About: Surrounding myself around pets has always given me serenity and peace. I worked at a dog resort where I fed, walked, played with, cleaned up after, and even had nap time with many dogs. I have studied dog behavior and group play through lessons given by my employment at the dog resort. I can administer medication and do my absolute best at following any requirements your fur baby needs! I have a friendly mini golden doodl), a playful toy Australian Shepherd, and two sweet cats whom I love to pieces! I also work from home and have a very flexible schedule. If you choose to get your baby taken care of by me, I will treat them like my own ❤️ I work from home and have a flexible schedule so they will have all of my attention! If they want it lol. I can also work around specific times you want your dog to eat, medication administered, etc. I have a fenced yard and two dogs that love to play! I can also provide a safe room and playpen for your dog to be in whenever I’m not home if that’s what they please!
“Sharon took great care of our cat! She stayed in touch with us throughout our vacation and sent pictures each day. We could tell our cat was enjoying her vacation, as well. Thank you for everything, Sharon!”

About: I have owned pets my whole life. I have owned cats and small dogs and even big dogs including Belgian Malinois in my lifetime.

“Ruth and her husband provided excellent care for my dog while I was away. They have great knowledge about dogs and offered a wonderful home away from home for my pup. Highly recommended.”

“Brittany and her family provided excellent car for my dog. He had so much fun playing with her dogs and running around their pool! Definitely recommend and will use again.”

“We cannot say enough about Katelyn and how she took such excellent care of our Charlie. She treated him like he was her own baby. She sent us so many pictures so we felt great while we were away. I cannot thank her enough! Charlie definitely fell in love with her. When we came today to get him, he seemed sad to leave her. Charlie obviously had a wonderful time! We will never trust anyone to care for Charlie except Katelyn in the future. And I know Charlie will be looking forward to being with her too!! If you want to feel comfortable leaving your baby with someone while you are away I highly recommend Katelyn. She is the real deal!!! Kathleen Calabrese”

“Shannon was loving and caring towards our pups. She sent daily pictures and even gathered the babies a bath before we picked them up. So happy with her service and care.”

“My Sophie was cared for excellently . I was kept updated on how her visit went daily . Not only will I book withelussa when the need arises , but I will recommend her to anyone needing boarding services ..”

“Maisie had a wonderful time with Marluce. She had lots of fun socializing with the other dogs. I highly recommend Marluce for superb care for your furry friend.”

“I'm so thankful to have found Christine and her family to keep our black lab while we were away for a few days. Chrisitine was easy to communicate with and sent regular updates. It was obvious that her kids had a big part in taking care of our dog, and he received lots of love and attention. When I picked him up, he was more calm and relaxed than he has ever been after being away from home. I would not hesitate to book with Christine again in the future.”

“Mercedes doggysat our Sophia for 2 nights. She sent us sweet pictures and updates during our time away. With each picture I could see that our sweet maltipoo was so happy and felt comfortable where she was. A home away from home :) We felt complete peace knowing our Sophia was in such loving hands. We will definitely be requesting Mercedes to watch Sophia in the future. Definitely recommend!”

“I can't say enough good stuff about Cheyenne! You should know that I have never trusted many people with my animals, but Cheyenne earned my trust and kept it. Anyone who knows me knows what a huge compliment that is. After another sitter flaked out on us, she came to the rescue at the very last minute. She is always on time, communicates well, kind, caring, and went way beyond to make sure not just the animals were happy... but us too. We put extra on her and she willingly went even further. I hope she is still doing this when we go on our next trip! Again, she is great. Great customer service, very professional, and great with animals. :) Cheyenne, I'm sorry I didn't share the YouTube videos for the parrots sooner. If I had known it would make yall instant friends, I would have. Lol”
“Stephanie and Jay were fantastic with my kitties! This was my first time using Rover and they were very patient and reassuring. One of my boys is very shy and doesn’t even come out for some of my family, but they were able to coax him out for some Churu and love!”

About: Hey there! Im on par with crazy dog lady at this point❤️ I'm dedicated to taking care of your pet(s) and making sure that they have everything they need and are safe. I have four of my own and I would adopt more if my husband would win the lottery and buy us a dog farm lol. I do not mix my dogs with your pets to ensure safety of all puppers! I will care for your pet(s) just like I would any of mine. I don't have children, I have fur babies :-) My house has a large fenced backyard with trees and is just like being in the woods. I will follow the instructions you leave for me, feed them at the times that you request, and dispense any medication as instructed. I am great with communication and will absolutely send you pictures and updates throughout the day because Id want them as well! I work from home and my schedule is very flexible, so I will be able to check on the babies all day and play as needed. If I am coming to your home overnight, I will need access to wifi for work, that is mandatory. I would love to take care of and play with your furbabies; they’re family too. I have a fenced in backyard, but I can also leash walk your pets as needed. We also have a great nature trail within 5 minutes of my home for higher energy dogs.

“Ben is reliable, trustworthy and an asset to Rover!!! We can count on him to take care of our fur babies when we can’t!!! Will definitely use him again, and refer him to our friends and family!!!”
“When we returned from our recent getaway, both of our kitty cats were calm and relaxed. That tells me just how good Jay took care of them!! Jay is great and his love for animals clearly shows. I fully trust him and know that all will be well while we are away. Thank you Jay!”

“Katherine, Cared for our cat exceptionally well. She went above and beyond with keeping her fed and watered (our sassafras cat-who runs the house) is very picky). She updated us after every visit, I would recommend her and will absolutely rebook with Katherine!”
“Everything was great, we couldn't be happier with her service. I don't know what we would do without her help, and she was so easy to work with, it was nice to know we had nothing to worry about while we were away from home. Thank you so much !!!!!!!!!!”

About: Welcome to Pecor's Pups! My wife and I have a lifetime of experience caring for all sorts of animals. We love dogs, especially. I have a veterinary care background, as I used to be a vet tech. I also have a Zoology degree and am experienced with various different types of animals and the care thereof. We have an energetic - yet very gentle - Golden Retriever and a rambunctious Great Pyrenees mix so all dogs staying with us must get along with other dogs. We would be willing to separate our pups for periods of time to give your little guy/girl one-on-one time, if that is your preference. We do have the ability to block off areas of the home to separate (from my dogs, or if you have more than one dog and they need separation) if needed. We have a large fenced in yard that is treated monthly to prevent fleas in the area. They can get all the playtime they need! If you don't wish for that, though, then that is not a problem either. I have a very comfortable environment for any and all animals who stay with me, with several dog beds that are washed and sanitized after each stay (and in between often) as well as tons of puzzle toys and enrichment activities if they're interested in that. Otherwise, we will just cuddle and hang out! I will stay strict with any and all schedules (feeding, treats, play time, potty time, medicines, etc) that you provide, but if you don't have a specific schedule for your dog, then I will put them on my dogs' feeding, play, treat, and potty schedule (except for younger or older puppies that may need a little more accommodation in that department) I am very easy-going and easy to deal with. I will also send as many updates via text as you want, with photos and "report cards" of your little ones activities for the day. We also provide baths, nail trims and ear cleanings! Let me know what you may need during your stay with us! If you have any further questions about me or our home and/or our dog and the services we provide, do not hesitate to reach out. We own two businesses from home (Pecor's Pups and another business) so we have a lot of time to dedicate to your pet(s) and their needs! I have a fenced in yard and two floors (the downstairs is currently under partial construction to make Pecor's Pups even more accommodating and cozy!) I can separate pets if needed for whatever reason, and there will be a lot of space outside for pups to roam whilst also being completely contained in the safety of my backyard.
“My dog ran back and gave Kallie two good-byes before coming to me to go home, which was a great sign to me that he really loved her and trusted her. She is very good with my golden retriever and has a nice home and fenced yard for him. I am so happy I found her.”


About: I'm offering small dog, under 15 lbs and cat sitting in my home where lots of love and care are the priority. Chloe my 13 year old Shih Tzu Maltese has lived with kitties her entire life.

Doggies & kitties can enjoy outdoor views from the large picture window that provides great entertainment. Back yard has a fenced in area for outdoor potty breaks and outdoor playtime.

About: I have experience with pets of all ages, including energetic puppies who need consistency, basic training reinforcement, and lots of playtime, as well as senior pets who may need a slower pace, medication, or extra care and comfort.

Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I love being outside and spending time with animals.

I generally know a week in advance if I'll be away. I live in the country and have little traffic on my road. We can take long walks away from all my pets. I have one medium dog inside and she can be separated from your pet.
About: I’ve cared for my own dogs and family pets since I was 10 years old, giving me over 30 years of hands-on experience. I’m comfortable with dogs of all ages and sizes — from playful puppies to senior pets who need extra patience and care. I can handle daily walks, feedings, playtime, and bathing, and I treat every pet like a beloved member of the family. work full-time but usually finish by 3pm, which gives me plenty of time for afternoon and evening pet care. I’m fully available all day on Thursdays and Sundays, and can also provide weekend boarding. I have a safe home environment and a sweet toy poodle who enjoys walks and companionship. Pets in my care get regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of attention. I can also crate your dog if needed and always treat them like part of the family.

My schedule has a lot of flexibility! I like to vary my weeks between the two. Spending time with others pets and helping animals in clinic keeps me happy and makes me proud! In my home, pets will be treated as my own. I do not require kennels or cages if the pet isn't used to them. I invite them to be as comfortable as possible!

Cats hold a special place in my heart and are always welcome in my home. ❤️

About: If I were looking for a dog sitter I am exactly the kind of sitter I would want. And I am picky! I will dote on your babies. My husband said he's never known anyone who sincerely cares for, and worries about, animals more than me. And he has seen a lot of pet owners because he's a veterinarian. I worry about all of God's creatures, what they're thinking and feeling, are they cold, thirsty, hungry, loved. I am so in love with animals that I became vegetarian 29 years ago. I'm not crazy, I just love animals. I am a college graduate and hold a professional job. Your animals will love me. I can provide frequent high energy exercise as tolerated by each pet. I have plenty of energy to ensure your pet gets adequate exercise and happiness. I care for each animal with individualized love, safety and attention. No animal will feel left out.

“My first time away from the pups and frankly I was nervous. Aric kept me informed on them and it was obvious they were treated like they were “family”. It gave me peace of mind and I was able to enjoy my time. ( I think they ? also enjoyed their “staycation” from me ?)”

“Kallie is very kind and very knowledgeable about dogs. My Charlie was given a lot of attention and excellent care during his stay in her home. I amany photos daily, which eliminated my anxiety about leaving him in someone else's home. I will definitely hire Kallie again to keep my Charlie when I have to travel.”

“Lyndsey was great with our pups! This was our first time leaving them with someone they didn't know, so we were nervous...but she sent us plenty of updates and pictures which eased our minds. We definitely recommend her and I'm sure we will be using her again in the future.”

“I couldn’t have asked for a better place to board our dog! DeRee and her husband took great care of Apollo and sent us updates daily. On top of all that they took him in on very short notice, so we’re extremely grateful for that as well. Will use again!”

“Sharon took great care of our cat! She stayed in touch with us throughout our vacation and sent pictures each day. We could tell our cat was enjoying her vacation, as well. Thank you for everything, Sharon!”

“Brittany and her family provided excellent car for my dog. He had so much fun playing with her dogs and running around their pool! Definitely recommend and will use again.”

“We cannot say enough about Katelyn and how she took such excellent care of our Charlie. She treated him like he was her own baby. She sent us so many pictures so we felt great while we were away. I cannot thank her enough! Charlie definitely fell in love with her. When we came today to get him, he seemed sad to leave her. Charlie obviously had a wonderful time! We will never trust anyone to care for Charlie except Katelyn in the future. And I know Charlie will be looking forward to being with her too!! If you want to feel comfortable leaving your baby with someone while you are away I highly recommend Katelyn. She is the real deal!!! Kathleen Calabrese”

“Shannon was loving and caring towards our pups. She sent daily pictures and even gathered the babies a bath before we picked them up. So happy with her service and care.”

“My Sophie was cared for excellently . I was kept updated on how her visit went daily . Not only will I book withelussa when the need arises , but I will recommend her to anyone needing boarding services ..”

“I'm so thankful to have found Christine and her family to keep our black lab while we were away for a few days. Chrisitine was easy to communicate with and sent regular updates. It was obvious that her kids had a big part in taking care of our dog, and he received lots of love and attention. When I picked him up, he was more calm and relaxed than he has ever been after being away from home. I would not hesitate to book with Christine again in the future.”

“Charish did a fantastic job with our Sheepadoodle, Nooga for an overnight stay. We did a meet and greet the week before her stay. While we were gone we got updates with pictures! Nooga seemed to be content and enjoyed her stay. Really appreciate The Charish took to love on our girl!”

“Elaina took such great care of our Stella! She consistently sent updated pictures and videos of Stella and provided daily updates on her well-being. Stella received lots of loving attention just like at her home. We felt happy that Stella acted and looked very happy in every pic that was sent. Stella came back clean, and calm seemed to be so relaxed. We will be using Elaina again!! Great backyard for an active dog like Stella. She seemed to have made a new friend with "Bug", their dog and their sweet two-year-old daughter.”

“Our Lola absolutely LOVED going to Kelley’s! She made some new bffs with the other dogs that were boarded and they were all so well mannered! It was like sending her off to a sleepover with all her buddies. Lola isn’t crate trained because she has her own room when we do have to leave her at home and Kelley was great at working with that! She also has a dog room and it was perfect for our baby. Kelley is our go to from now on!”
About: I have experience with pets of all ages, including energetic puppies who need consistency, basic training reinforcement, and lots of playtime, as well as senior pets who may need a slower pace, medication, or extra care and comfort. I’m very attentive to routines and will stick closely to your pet’s normal schedule to help reduce stress. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I love being outside and spending time with animals. I enjoy going on walks, playing outside, and making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and exercise throughout the day. I follow the owner’s instructions closely for feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and any specific care instructions. I also make sure pets feel safe and relaxed by giving them lots of love, supervision, and a calm environment. I enjoy being outside, so walks and outdoor play are something I really enjoy doing with dogs.
