“Wonderful experience! Great communication, kind, and caring. Panther was well taken care of, and we truly appreciated the peace of mind while we were away. Highly recommend! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

“Tracy was amazing with our dog who can be very anxious. This was the first time ever that we have picked him up from boarding that he was completely calm and didn’t seem stressed at all. Tracy sent pictures and communicated all weekend. I would recommend Tracy to anyone. Our little guy was treated with care and love just like he was one of their own.”


“Monica was very easy to work with. Kali, one year old English Cocker, is very attached to just us as we travel a lot for our job. She was a bit tentative but Monica worked with her and took great care of her. By the time we picked up Kali from the long weekend I’m not sure she wanted to come home with us. Would use Monica again if we need a Sitter.”

“Chelbi took great care of my little guy! I had a last minute booking request and she was able to accommodate him graciously. She worked with my schedule and he had the best time! I will definitely be booking with her again!”

“If you’re looking for a top tier 5 star dog sitter then Joe is your man. He took the best care of our pup while we were out of town. Joe sent us multiple videos of our pup and how well she was doing her entire stay with him. I can’t recommend him enough.”

“Linda did an excellent job while keeping my dog on vacation. He really enjoyed his time there and she took care of him just as well as I would! I would definitely recommend Linda as she receives a 10 star rating from me! I will most definitely use her for future boarding!”

About: I was raised around animals, of all kind, my entire life. Rescued many due to job as rural letter carrier. God gave us dominion over all animals! I’m retired and newly relocated. Love the outdoors and being outside part of every day life. Lots places to roam around Although, just lounging inside works too. Although I do not have a fenced yard, there is ample space for walking. My own dog is free to roam, but is inside mostly. He sleeps on furniture and with me. He’s great around other dogs.
About: I have been a dog lover since my first dog followed me home at the age of 6 (and he was a full size Doberman of all things). I currently have a German Shepherd, Pit bull Mix, Husky Mix, Chihuahua Mix and an Orange Tabby so I'm used to animals of all sizes and temperaments. My poor Pit Mix has allergies, my GSD has hip dysplasia and my Chihuahua has a heart condition, so I'm well versed in special needs! I do research constantly and spend lots of time talking to our vet about how I can make their lives, and mine, easier. I'd love to put all that knowledge to work for your fur babies! I know CPR for dogs and even keep a doggie first aid kit in my car! Just in case. I do my best to make sure my presence is felt as little as possible in your home but that your baby gets all the attention they need and deserve! I'm currently dog and cat grooming only on Fridays and Saturdays. So usually Sun-Thurs its just me and my pets living our best lives. I have a two acre property that we constantly explore and we love to go swimming at the nearby lake! I do my best to be as unintrusive as possible when in you're home! Letting me know their favorite toys and activities do make things easier for us to bond! I have a fully fenced in half acre with another acre and a half we can explore while leashed! There are cows, chickens and other animals on the farm next door so there's plenty of sights (and smells)!

About: I have had a dog or cat in my life for over 5 decades. My parents raised dogs and taught me early in life how to care for pets. My heart has always belonged to some sort of pet from rabbits, guinea pigs to dogs and cats. Big dogs, smaller dogs and everything in between. I have loved them all. I am confident in my love and ability to care for all pets and appreciate my time with them. I feel pets are an essential part of my every day life. I am a Doggie Mama to 3 Basset hounds and a Rat Terrier who thinks he is a Basset hound. Our life is really blessed and very good and we wouldn't change a thing.

About: Over the past 5 years we had cats come to our home, found them on roads, and found them around my old high school. We have 8 kitties, 1 outside , 7 inside. I have cleaned 6 of the 8 cats myself when we rescued them, I am currently in college so I was not around when we rescued the 2 newest kitties. I took 5 of them to the vet and administered flea and worm medicine to them. Some of them also had eye/ear problems and I would take care of them by giving them eye/ear drops with no problem (I gave them treats so they would feel better!)

If you prefer, I will check on your pet in your home.

“Ashley was an incredible cat sitter! She took amazing care of our two cats for a week, keeping them happy, relaxed, and well-loved while we were away. One of our cats is usually shy, but he warmed up to Ashley right away—proof of how kind and trustworthy she is. We got daily updates and great photos, which gave us real peace of mind. When we came home, everything was clean and our cats were calm and content. We couldn’t have asked for better care and will definitely be booking Ashley again!”

About: I have always loved cats, and had always been around them in some capacity growing up; Had outside cats, inside cats, befriended neighborhood cats and fed strays. I knew at a very young age that cats were just different and you needed to earn their trust and respect at their pace. I started working professionally with cats at my first veterinary job back in 2008, and it made me love them so much more. My first cat I adopted as an adult was a 16 year old tabby named Lincoln who was about to be euthanized for being bullied by the other 9 young cats at home. I said "absolutely not!" And I took him home, loved him, learned so much more about cats and he lived to be about 20 years old. I started working with rescues, with TNR projects, raising litters of kittens. I am just passionate about them. I'm patient, I understand their behavior and their language. I'm comfortable administering medications in any form (oral, injectable, etc.). Im comfortable caring for healthy cats, as well as those with special needs, and of course hospice kitties as well. I'm also always happy and ready to help with kittens. I have a deep understanding of feline medicine and will always be passionate about feline health.
About: I am an animal lover though and through. I have professional experience working at vet clinics, humane societies and zoological facilities. With this experience you can feel relieved in knowing your pet will be cared for in the best way possible. I work part time with Wednesday, Thursday and Friday off. I am available whenever needed on my free days! We can work together to figure out a plan that works best for all parties. I can customize care plans based on individual needs. I understand that every pet is an individual with different likes and care needs. Assuring that our furry family members get the care they need is top priority.

About: I've had cats since I was very young. I had a brief hiatus from cats in my 20s when I had dogs that weren't super friendly to cats, but I now have two adorable cats that I love very much! Would love to spend some time making friends with and caring for your cats.

About: I have been grooming cats (and dogs) for the last six years, so I do have experience with all kinds of temperaments. My orange tabby Geoffrey Saucer is an event all in himself. I try to keep my presence in your home as calm and unintrusive as possible, I know how finicky some cats can be about change!

“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! From the very beginning, she is reliable, communicative, and genuinely caring. My dog is always well taken care of, happy, and clearly loved while I’m away.I received regular updates and photos, which gives me so much peace of mind. It’s not easy to trust someone with your pet, but she exceeded all expectations. I will absolutely be using them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone dependable and compassionate!”

About: Hi! My name is Lexie. i have two dogs, Astro and Stark. Those two boys are what got me into the pet care environment. Searching for a sitter or dog walker for them made me realize I would only want the BEST for my two boys. So I decided to become one myself. I have years of experience with dogs, cats, birds, horses, goats, chickens, exotics including hedgehogs, snakes, guinea pigs, fish and many more. I am a freelance dog trainer and groom my own dogs so if your pooch needs a little spiffy up while you’re gone don’t worry! I worked in animal rescue for many years and now do dog sports so I have experience with nearly every breed of dog imaginable. My own dogs are very high energy and need both mental stimulation and physical exercise so that’s why I also offer dog walking services. Contact me if you have ANY questions or want to meet me before booking an appointment. I’ll be happy to oblige. I am usually at home caring for the dogs! I am a dog trainer so I am available to play with the dogs and let them out most of the day. I have 1 acre fenced in. If your dog is an escape artist like mine, they will be leash walked or supervised in the backyard. I do utilize a crate if you provide it. If you prefer your dog to not be in one that is respected!
About: Howdy fellow pet lovers. I’m Keith, and along with my daughter, Karsyn, we just launched a friendly dog service called Haywood’s Happy Hounds. I’m a husband and father of four beautiful children. I have been the owner of two Rottweilers and a Yorkie in the past, but now, we are raising an energetic, sparky Chiweenie named Krew LeBark Haywood and a friendly, playful GoldenDoodle named Reese L. Haywood alongside our children. My youngest daughter really took a liking to Krew when we got him as a wee pup, so she’s going along on this doggie journey with me. Don’t want to be in the rain? We’ll walk your GreatDane! Late starting supper? We’ll gladly walk your pupper. Need someone to puppy sit? We’ll watch your lovely, fluffy ShihTzu. Friendly dog, but no one to watch her? I’ll come sit your boxer! Whatever your doggie needs, our Daddy&Daughter tandem can provide it, indeed! Rain, sleet, snow or hail, we offer our services like the postal mail! We’ll treat your furry friends like one of our own and return them happier than when they arrived. I’m available most days and weekends for sitting. Just contact us and let us know when you’d need our friendly services. We’re looking forward to it. We have a nice sized, fenced yard, where our own dogs AND children love roaming around and playing in. I’m sure your pups will too.

About: Hey! My name is Stefanie and I have been taking care of animals for almost my entire life. I have experience with both cats and dogs and would love to watch your pets for you. I hold myself to the same standards that I would expect from my own pet sitters. I can handle animals of all shapes and sizes, even your giant breeds! I have experience in the veterinary field and have cared for pets with all types of dietary restrictions, medical needs, and temperaments - so if your pet needs some special attention, I'm your gal!

I am a full time mother so I am readily available for drop in visits, overnights, and walks. Please note that my infant son will be with me during all visits. I will of course assume responsibility for my kiddo being safe around your pets, but please be mindful of your pets' temperament with children when booking! My ideal scenario when caring for your pets is to adopt their current routine - I find that keeps them the happiest while their people are away. I'm happy to visit on whatever schedule is best for you, and I'm happy to do overnights as needed.

I do my best to make sure my presence is felt as little as possible in your home but that your baby gets all the attention they need and deserve! I'm currently dog and cat grooming only on Fridays and Saturdays. So usually Sun-Thurs its just me and my pets living our best lives. I have a two acre property that we constantly explore and we love to go swimming at the nearby lake! I do my best to be as unintrusive as possible when in you're home! Letting me know their favorite toys and activities do make things easier for us to bond! I have a fully fenced in half acre with another acre and a half we can explore while leashed! There are cows, chickens and other animals on the farm next door so there's plenty of sights (and smells)!

I have a fenced in back yard for your animals and I have 2 younger fur babies of my own for your babies to play with! I have ample room inside my home for your pets, crates, playing areas and toys!
About: I have loved spoiling animals for years and will make sure your sweet pet has the best of care. They will be treated like family while they stay with us. If you need a pet check in and feeding, I am your go to person. I am currently available on the weekend to take care of your pet. I am flexible on the weekend to meet your pet’s needs. Making your pet feel at home, will be my top priority. I have a chain link fenced back yard and a friendly dog that would keep your pet company while I board your pet.

My schedule is extremely flexible so I will have plently of availability to walk and care for your fur babies! I am excited to walk and care for your pups!

“Genesis did so amazing taking care of Tigger & Holstein while we were away! She made sure to get ample pictures and our big guy loved seeing her! Will absolutely be using her again in the future💙💙”


About: I'm a lover of all animals, willing to accommodate special hours or instructions, if medications are needed I'm comfortable doing that as well. Have been pet sitting for 10+ years and have yet to meet a dog/pet I don't adore? I'm willing to work with anyone's pet and meet them beforehand to make sure they feel comfortable with me. A pet should always come first so I would want to make sure I can accommodate their needs. I'm a firm believer in in also having a healthy relationship with pet parents and most certainly encourage any questions to make sure your pet and I both be comfortable each other before accepting any job. Please feel free to contact me, I'll answer any questions about myself and background as well as provide references. I am currently a part-time student so my schedule can work around yours. I set my school hours accordingly, therefore it doesn't interfere with the care of your pet. Patience goes a long way when it comes to establishing a connection with a pet. Pets are attached to their owners and some can become sensitive or withdrawn to new people. It's up to me to form a bond with all pets. Most pets I have come across form relationships easily, however there are cases where pets may come with a past. Such as being rescues whose previous owners didn't treat them well . In such cases lots of love, attention and patience would be given on my part to ensure that your pet feels safe.

“Wonderful experience! Great communication, kind, and caring. Panther was well taken care of, and we truly appreciated the peace of mind while we were away. Highly recommend! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

“Tracy was amazing with our dog who can be very anxious. This was the first time ever that we have picked him up from boarding that he was completely calm and didn’t seem stressed at all. Tracy sent pictures and communicated all weekend. I would recommend Tracy to anyone. Our little guy was treated with care and love just like he was one of their own.”


“Monica was very easy to work with. Kali, one year old English Cocker, is very attached to just us as we travel a lot for our job. She was a bit tentative but Monica worked with her and took great care of her. By the time we picked up Kali from the long weekend I’m not sure she wanted to come home with us. Would use Monica again if we need a Sitter.”

“Chelbi took great care of my little guy! I had a last minute booking request and she was able to accommodate him graciously. She worked with my schedule and he had the best time! I will definitely be booking with her again!”

“If you’re looking for a top tier 5 star dog sitter then Joe is your man. He took the best care of our pup while we were out of town. Joe sent us multiple videos of our pup and how well she was doing her entire stay with him. I can’t recommend him enough.”

About: I was raised around animals, of all kind, my entire life. Rescued many due to job as rural letter carrier. God gave us dominion over all animals! I’m retired and newly relocated. Love the outdoors and being outside part of every day life. Lots places to roam around Although, just lounging inside works too. Although I do not have a fenced yard, there is ample space for walking. My own dog is free to roam, but is inside mostly. He sleeps on furniture and with me. He’s great around other dogs.
About: I’ve worked as a kennel tech/bather Ive cleaned kennel feeding and providing water for dogs and cats I have experience walking dogs of all sizes from puppies to Great Danes I’ve medicated clients and also bathe and done nail trims I’ve handled cats too with bathing and giving meds to cleaning out litter boxes. I work M-F 7-5:30. I can come before or after work for drop ins, I can also stop by on my lunch which is 12-1 if your home is near my clinic I work at. I go home every day on my lunch to let my pets out for potty breaks I can do it for your pets too. I have a fenced back yard and 3 fixed dogs. I also have 3 cats as well all are neutered. My pets are kenneled when I leave, but your fur baby is free to roam around my home, and if you prefer your fur baby to be kenneled if no one is home at the time that’s an option i can do as well

I can work with you from Monday to Friday from 9 am to 5 pm I would like to take care of them in your house or if they require only exercises it could be in my house, but for care, I will like to be more in the comfort of the pet's home since that is where they feel safe.
