“Cookie our puppy, had a great time at Jessica’s house for over 2 weeks. He got a lot of exercise and we were sent photos every day. He was well cared for! Thank you Jessica.”

“We couldn’t be happier! They took such wonderful care of dogs while we were away. Getting daily picture updates brought us so much peace of mind, and their communication was always prompt and friendly. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter! 🐾🐾”

“Sanchita, is an excellent care taker. From the moment we met, it was clear how much she genuinely cares for animals. My Rocko immediately felt at ease with her, and I was reassured by her professionalism, reliability, and attention to detail. While I was away, she provided regular updates and adorable photos so I knew my Rocko was happy and comfortable. She went above and beyond with walks, playtime. My Rocko returned home calm and content, which says everything about the quality of care provided. I will absolutely book with her again she’s the best.”

“It's our second time leaving Mona with Alina and Mona's had a wonderful time with Alina! She is well-loved by Alina and her family and is always happily playing with her friends :) We always get updates, so we've never had to worry about Mona. Alina also helped us with crate training and updated us on how Mona had been doing with her crate training.”

“Bo was great. Very quick to respond to texts. Also received daily photos of our pups and received a little holiday gift bag when we picked the dogs up. Definitely recommend Bo’s place and will use again!”


“My dog ,Jack, loves Margot. He knows what street she lives on and starts dancing in the car when ever we are anywhere near there. Jack always stays with her when I travel, and I love that he is always happy and healthy when I pick him up. I really enjoy the pictures Margot sends me when he is there .”


“Alicia is very friendly and cares very much about animals. She is flexible and willing to work with you If you are in a pinch or last minute situation! Very satisfied with my Pet’s stay with her! Would definitely send him back to her!”

“Martie was fantastic. This was my first time using this service & I was very nervous to give my boy up, but she made me feel better with her attention to detail and her multiple daily photos and updates. You can tell when you meet Martie that she has a warm heart and a great way with animals. Would definitely recommend her, I will be sure to use her again need be. Thanks again Martie!”

“Mayra put me at ease from the warm welcome the moment we met to the way she greeted my precious golden doodle. Mayra was attentive to details, sent pics to inform me —-AND has an awesome loving mom who helps out! Look no further, Mayra is the kind of responsible and caring person who you can count on. Thank you, Mayra & Mom!!”

“I had a great experience with Claudia through Rover! She communicated really well and kept me updated with messages and pictures of my dog, Cecil. I was a little worried leaving him since he’s an older dog, but her experience with senior pets made me feel so much more comfortable. I could tell he was in good hands. I will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”

“Brittany and Amber were terrific! They are close to BRO, so super convenient for drop offs, and they have enough room to keep visiting dogs separated from theirs (mine were pissy.). Brittany sent pictures and videos consistently and my Walter and Lilo got lots of attention and love. Came home 12 days later to happy puppers! Would use Brittany again in a heartbeat.”

About: What sets me apart is the level of personal care, attention, and space I provide for every dog. As a full-time homemaker and dedicated dog mom, I have the time to give each guest the supervision, companionship, and affection they deserve instead of leaving them alone for long periods. I have hands-on experience caring for my own two Cane Corsos, a large working breed that requires consistency, patience, and confident handling. This experience has taught me how to understand different personalities, recognize body language, and create a calm, safe environment for dogs of different sizes and energy levels. My home offers a fully fenced 2.41-acre country property, giving dogs plenty of room to safely run, explore, and play. I also understand that not every dog enjoys group play, so I can separate dogs when needed to ensure everyone stays comfortable, relaxed, and safe. I believe every dog is unique. I take the time to follow each owner’s care instructions, feeding schedule, exercise routine, and preferences so your pet feels as close to home as possible. I also provide regular updates and photos, giving you peace of mind while you’re away. For me, this isn’t just pet sitting—it’s providing a loving, trustworthy home where your furry family member is treated with the same care and respect I give my own. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life because I’m a full-time homemaker and devoted dog mom. Being home throughout the day allows me to provide consistent supervision, regular potty breaks, feeding on schedule, playtime, exercise, and plenty of love and attention for every dog in my care. Each day includes supervised outdoor time on our fully fenced 2.41-acre property, enrichment activities, cuddle time, and a comfortable place to rest indoors. I also make sure every guest follows their owner’s routine as closely as possible to help them feel safe, relaxed, and at home. As a furry parent myself, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your beloved companion. I treat every dog as if they were my own, giving them patience, kindness, and personalized care throughout their stay. My goal is to provide a calm, clean, and loving environment where dogs can enjoy themselves while their owners have complete peace of mind. At Country Paws Retreat, your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my highest priorities. I provide a peaceful, loving home where every dog is treated like family. My 2.41-acre fully fenced property offers plenty of secure space to run, play, explore, and relax in a safe country setting. I understand that leaving your furry family member with someone new takes trust. That’s why I provide attentive, personalized care, regular potty breaks, supervised playtime, fresh water, and lots of love and affection throughout the day. I keep a close eye on every dog to ensure they are safe, comfortable, and enjoying their stay. As a proud owner of two friendly Cane Corsos, I have experience caring for large breeds and understand that every dog has a unique personality. If needed, dogs can be separated during playtime or rest periods to ensure everyone’s comfort and safety. Whether your pup is here for daycare or an extended stay, you can enjoy peace of mind knowing they’re in a clean, secure, and caring environment where they’ll receive the attention they deserve. My goal is for every guest to leave happy, relaxed, and excited to come back!
“Samantha's super professional and kind. This was my first time leaving my pups with someone I don't personally know, and she sent me pictures and updates which made me feel much more comfortable. I was out of state fot a few days, and had a flight change on my way back, which made me late to pick them up. She was understanding, and even groomed them before I picked them up. Highly recommend!”

About: I love animals. I have had pets since I was a young. I have a lot of patience and always enjoy my time with them. I currently work from home. I can manage my schedule very well since my profession allows me to work by appointments only. I can make time before, during and after work. I will take great care of your fur babies. They will be in great caring and loving hands. I’m also very respectful of peoples property.

“Julissa was fantastic watching our two cats. She gave us good updates and sent plenty of pictures during drop in. She took care of the litter, kept everything clean, and was super quick to respond anytime we needed to communicate. Great experience working with her, couldn’t have felt safer.”


“Destiny was an outstanding daily drop-in visitor for our two kitties! She sent lots of photos, shared daily updates, and asked questions about their habits and preferences. I am so glad we booked with Destiny, and I will definitely call her again.”


“Paulina is an excellent sitter who treated our kitties like her own. I was very impressed that my super shy and anxious kitty who definitely growled in the beginning grew out of her shell to come out of hiding and interact with Paulina. She was very kind, responsive, and gave lots of love to both my cats.”


“Elsa took such good care of my cat and was prompt with responding and informing me of any and all updates. I appreciated the added care, like grabbing my mail, and when she was coming outside of scheduled times, even if it was hardly outside the window. She was responsible, friendly, and communicative. I’d hire her again!”

About: My brother first introduced cats to our family about 5 years ago, and even though we were skeptical at first because we’ve always had dogs, we immediately fell in love with cats (I have a weakness for orange cats 🤭). I quickly learned that all cats are different, so I adapt to their needs and personalities, and make sure to keep you updated as preferred.

About: I also have experience as a cat sitter, as family members have trusted me to care for their cats while they were out of town. During that time, I made sure they were fed on schedule, had clean litter boxes, and received plenty of attention and care. I understand that every cat has a different personality, so I take the time to make them feel comfortable, whether that means giving them space or engaging in play. I always aim to keep their routine consistent so they feel safe and stress-free while their owners are away.

“Karla was amazing! She took care of our two cats, our playful 9-month-old kitten and 18-year-old senior cat, while we were in Europe for three weeks. I left detailed instructions, and she followed everything perfectly. We were kept updated with messages and photos, which gave us real peace of mind. It was clear she genuinely cared about our cats and gave each of them the attention they needed. Knowing they were in such good hands made our trip so much less stressful. We’re thrilled to have found her and will definitely be booking her again for future trips. Highly recommended!”

So very thankful for you Margot!”

“Elsa was prompt to our visit and careful and patient with my 13 y. o. chihuahua who came back looking energized and happy after her walk. I had a last minute med visit with one dog who had a scheduled walk and Elsa was kind enough to modify the visit for me.”


About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my lifelong experience and genuine love for animals. I’ve had multiple dogs and cats my whole life, so caring for pets has always been a natural part of who I am. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, and I’m patient, attentive, and responsive to their individual needs. I’m comfortable caring for puppies who need extra attention, consistency, and basic training reinforcement, as well as senior pets who may require a slower pace, medication reminders, or gentle care. I’m very observant and make sure pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. Now that I’m away at college, I truly miss having animals around, so pet sitting is something that brings me joy in the meantime. I have a big heart for animals, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. 🐾💛 Pet care fits easily into my daily and weekly routine because I intentionally plan my schedule around the pets I’m caring for. As a college student, I have structured class times, which allows me to create consistent morning, afternoon, and evening check-ins for walks, feeding, playtime, and any special care needs. I’m used to building my day around animals since I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life. Whether it’s early morning walks, mid-day potty breaks, or evening cuddle time, I make sure pets receive attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. On weekends, I typically have even more flexibility, which allows for longer walks or extra playtime. Caring for pets isn’t something I squeeze in — it’s something I prioritize because I truly enjoy it. 🐾💛 When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, my top priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their environment. I carefully follow the owner’s instructions regarding feeding schedules, portion sizes, medications, exercise routines, and any specific behavioral needs. In a client’s home, I respect their space and keep everything clean and organized. I make sure pets stay on their normal routine to reduce stress while their owner is away. This includes walks, playtime, enrichment activities, and plenty of attention and affection. I also provide updates and photos so owners feel reassured. If caring for pets in my home, I create a calm, pet-friendly environment with close supervision. I ensure they have a safe space to rest, regular potty breaks, structured playtime, and lots of companionship. Because I’ve had multiple dogs and cats my whole life, I’m very attentive to body language and behavior changes, especially for puppies or senior pets who may need extra care. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always aim to provide consistent, loving, and responsible care. 🐾💛
“Samantha is great. We did an intro to dogs before actually booking. She’s great and was very patient in explaining how it works step by step. On her first visit she sent me updates via pictures as well as a nice summary of their walk! Will definitely be re booking. My dogs were highly satisfied as well.”

About: Hi! My name is Sam (Samantha), and I’ve been around pets my entire life. I’ve had a family dog for as long as I can remember and have also cared for family members’ pets while they were out of town. I have experience with dog washing, managing multiple animals at once, and making sure each pet stays on their normal schedule. I’m dependable, patient, and truly enjoy spending time with animals. I currently run my own business, which allows me to have a very flexible schedule and be available throughout the day to give your fur babies the attention and care they deserve! I have a fully fenced backyard with plenty of space for dogs to safely roam and play. There is also a pool on the property that is not gated, and I always make sure pets are supervised to ensure their safety at all times. My dog Canelo is often seen sunbathing in the backyard or asleep all day. He has never shown an ounce of aggression and will more than likely completely leave them alone as he typically keeps to himself, making him easygoing around other dogs.
About: Every pet is unique, so I tailor my approach to their specific needs, personality, and routine. From high-energy dogs needing long walks to shy cats requiring quiet playtime, I adapt to keep them comfortable and happy. I’m currently available Monday - Friday after 4:30 PM & Saturday’s 11:00 AM-2:00PM. I will be a full time student in the spring semester. But I am really good in prioritizing my schedule I love dogs.🥹 I live in a 3 bed room home. I have a backyard if needed and have a kennel I can easily crate your dog if needed.

About: I have grown up with cats and dogs for most of my life. I have been dog sitting 2 Yorkies for weeks, on and off. All pets are well treated and loved in my home. I do have a well trained female shih tzu, which always gets along with other dogs. Pet care is used every day of the week, due to the dog I have. I always have time to care for other pets, which will never be ignored. I live in an apartment, which do allow pets. All dogs are allowed in the apartment. Dogs are walked on leashes around the outer part of the complex. Dogs are able to relieve their selves where kids and others are not around. I do use pads inside the apartment, which I do have. If dogs are needed to be kept inside, the large pads are used.

About: Hello!!! I love animals I’ve had cats and dogs growing up my whole life so I’m pretty familiar with their care! I know how frustrating it is having to ask someone u know to put a stop in their day to help u out but sometimes it’s better to stress free and just hire someone who will devote their time to ur loved ones 💝💝 Im pretty much free availability for right now due to being laid off so anything can work, for the time being. As per overnight stays or just checking in during the day I would love to make sure their bathroom areas are clean and well kept, their food and water always being fresh and making sure nothing is out of the ordinary

“Sanchita, is an excellent care taker. From the moment we met, it was clear how much she genuinely cares for animals. My Rocko immediately felt at ease with her, and I was reassured by her professionalism, reliability, and attention to detail. While I was away, she provided regular updates and adorable photos so I knew my Rocko was happy and comfortable. She went above and beyond with walks, playtime. My Rocko returned home calm and content, which says everything about the quality of care provided. I will absolutely book with her again she’s the best.”

Alina also helped us with crate training and updated us on how Mona had been doing with her crate training.”

I will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”

“Brittany and Amber were terrific! They are close to BRO, so super convenient for drop offs, and they have enough room to keep visiting dogs separated from theirs (mine were pissy.). Brittany sent pictures and videos consistently and my Walter and Lilo got lots of attention and love. Came home 12 days later to happy puppers! Would use Brittany again in a heartbeat.”
About: What sets me apart is the level of personal care, attention, and space I provide for every dog. As a full-time homemaker and dedicated dog mom, I have the time to give each guest the supervision, companionship, and affection they deserve instead of leaving them alone for long periods. I have hands-on experience caring for my own two Cane Corsos, a large working breed that requires consistency, patience, and confident handling. This experience has taught me how to understand different personalities, recognize body language, and create a calm, safe environment for dogs of different sizes and energy levels. My home offers a fully fenced 2.41-acre country property, giving dogs plenty of room to safely run, explore, and play. I also understand that not every dog enjoys group play, so I can separate dogs when needed to ensure everyone stays comfortable, relaxed, and safe. I believe every dog is unique. I take the time to follow each owner’s care instructions, feeding schedule, exercise routine, and preferences so your pet feels as close to home as possible. I also provide regular updates and photos, giving you peace of mind while you’re away. For me, this isn’t just pet sitting—it’s providing a loving, trustworthy home where your furry family member is treated with the same care and respect I give my own. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life because I’m a full-time homemaker and devoted dog mom. Being home throughout the day allows me to provide consistent supervision, regular potty breaks, feeding on schedule, playtime, exercise, and plenty of love and attention for every dog in my care. Each day includes supervised outdoor time on our fully fenced 2.41-acre property, enrichment activities, cuddle time, and a comfortable place to rest indoors. I also make sure every guest follows their owner’s routine as closely as possible to help them feel safe, relaxed, and at home. As a furry parent myself, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your beloved companion. I treat every dog as if they were my own, giving them patience, kindness, and personalized care throughout their stay. My goal is to provide a calm, clean, and loving environment where dogs can enjoy themselves while their owners have complete peace of mind. At Country Paws Retreat, your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my highest priorities. I provide a peaceful, loving home where every dog is treated like family. My 2.41-acre fully fenced property offers plenty of secure space to run, play, explore, and relax in a safe country setting. I understand that leaving your furry family member with someone new takes trust. That’s why I provide attentive, personalized care, regular potty breaks, supervised playtime, fresh water, and lots of love and affection throughout the day. I keep a close eye on every dog to ensure they are safe, comfortable, and enjoying their stay. As a proud owner of two friendly Cane Corsos, I have experience caring for large breeds and understand that every dog has a unique personality. If needed, dogs can be separated during playtime or rest periods to ensure everyone’s comfort and safety. Whether your pup is here for daycare or an extended stay, you can enjoy peace of mind knowing they’re in a clean, secure, and caring environment where they’ll receive the attention they deserve. My goal is for every guest to leave happy, relaxed, and excited to come back!
“Samantha's super professional and kind. This was my first time leaving my pups with someone I don't personally know, and she sent me pictures and updates which made me feel much more comfortable. I was out of state fot a few days, and had a flight change on my way back, which made me late to pick them up. She was understanding, and even groomed them before I picked them up. Highly recommend!”

“Stephanie was great with our girl Zara. Sent daily updates and pics, was very communicative! Took her on walks, gave her toys to play with, and treats :) Thanks Stephanie!!”

“I couldn’t be more grateful for the amazing care Melissa provided during my dog’s two week overnight stay. From the very beginning, she made me feel confident and comfortable leaving Chanel in such capable hands. Throughout the entire stay, Melissa kept me updated. Chanel came back healthy and well-rested. I will 100% be booking again and highly recommend Melissa to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and truly passionate about dogs. Thank you so much for everything!”

About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve cared for and walked all types of dogs, from small breeds to large dogs up to 80 pounds, old and young. Friends, family and neighbors trust me because I have a calm, caring energy that dogs naturally respond to. I’m dependable, loving and treat every pet as if they were my own. I am currently retired and home most of the time, so your pet will receive lots of attention, affection and frequent walks. I truly treat every fur baby as if they were my own. I live in an apartment, so walks and outdoor breaks are frequent. When house sitting, I always follow the owner’s instructions to keep pets comfortable and routines consistent.
About: What sets me apart is the space and care I provide. I live on 2.5 acres, giving dogs plenty of room to safely explore, play, and burn off energy. As both a lifelong dog and horse lover, I’m comfortable caring for animals of all sizes and personalities. I understand that every pet is unique, so I take the time to learn their routine, energy level, and preferences to help them feel at home. I treat every dog like they’re part of the family, providing lots of attention, playtime, and affection while keeping owners updated with photos and messages for peace of mind. Whether your dog loves to run, relax, or just wants extra cuddles, I’ll make sure they receive personalized care in a safe, country setting. Pet care fits naturally into my daily schedule because I’m a stay-at-home mom to my toddler. Being home throughout the day allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, regular exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention. Your pet won’t be left alone for long periods and will receive lots of love and supervision in a calm, family-oriented environment. Caring for animals is something I truly enjoy, and I love incorporating them into our daily routine! In my home, pets have plenty of room to play and explore on our property while always being supervised. I provide a clean, alm environment with lots of attention, playtime, and affction so they feel like part of the family. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect both the home and the pet’s routine. I make sure your pet gets the care, exercise, and companionship they’re used to while keeping your home clean and secure. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands.
