“Sarah is so amazing with our dogs! One is super high anxiety and he gets very comfortable at her house! It’s a blessing to not have to worry about him as much when we are gone.”
“We were so lucky Maddison & Wesley were available to watch Heidi my daughters dog while I had a major surgery. It was very last minute. They were able to do a meet the same day I contacted them and watch her starting that Mon-Wed. It was such a relief knowing they had dogs her same size and they knew how to handle her. She’s a cuddle bug but very big and solid! We thank your family for being so AWESOME!!”
“Dorothy was wonderful with Kimora! She was very communicative throughout the night and sent frequent updates and photos, which really eased my anxious dog-mama heart. I felt completely comfortable knowing Kimora was in such good hands. I would absolutely recommend Dorothy and would happily book with her again.”
“Krystal was awesome. She replied quickly and even kept Ozzy an extra day because I was stuck out of town with work. She was great with Ozzy and even discussed his habits with me. Definitely recommend Krysta.”
“Amazing! Not only did Lindsey have the perfect setup for my large dog's stay with a wonderful house and yard, but her care for my pup was amazing. Lindsey communicated so well and made sure to ask all the right questions to care for my pup - especially the ones I forgot to bring up. 10/10 I would send my good boy there again. He was clearly comfortable, cared for, and made new friends!”
“Monse took great care of my puppy! I loved all of the photo updates that I received! My puppy looked so happy in all of them! Thank you for taking care Remi, It was less stressful being away knowing she was in good hands!”
“Josh is always awesome! Takes great care of my 2 labs and he even took my Coosa to vet due to blood in her urine while I was out of town. Made sure my girl was taken care of. Josh is super awesome with his animals and treats mine like one of his own. Couldn’t recommend him anymore!”
“Shane took care of my two dogs for 2 weeks while I was out of the country. He sent me pictures and updates of the puppies every single day. He was just amazing and my dogs love him now. I highly recommend his service. He is great!”
“I feel so blessed to have found Jordan last minute. She was so patient and sweet to our Aussie who is super timid and anxious. She sent pictures every day to keep us reassured. Coco loved her!”
“I had to leave my very nervous boys for the first time and they did so well! Suzanne was great in providing updates, sending lots of pictures, and adjusting to the needs of the dogs that it made me feel at ease to leave them in her care overnight and just be able to focus on my event. Definitely will bring my boys back to her whenever I need someone to look after them again💓”
“Karen did a wonderful job with caring for Kiki! She always kept me up to date. Kiki was one happy dog when I picked her up. I will definitely be using Karen for future stays. Thank you!”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who would be thrilled to care for your pets like they’re part of my own family. I’ve had dogs my entire life and have had cats for the past 7 years. My home is currently filled with 7 animals of my own—2 dogs and 5 cats! They’re definitely my favorite part of home life (other than my husband, of course lol). I regularly care for the pets of my family and friends, including my brother-in-law’s dog, who I watch very frequently, as well as my family’s 2 dogs and cat. I also occasionally care for a close friend’s dog. One of my longer pet-sitting experiences was caring for my cousin’s dog for 3 months while she recovered from a broken leg. We are an extremely pet-friendly household and genuinely love having animals around. When friends come over, we’re always telling them to bring their pets! My schedule is currently completely open, and as an at-home wife, I’m able to be home with your pets for the majority of the day most days. I’m happy to provide plenty of attention, companionship, playtime, walks, and cuddles so your pets feel comfortable and loved while you’re away. I’m comfortable caring for all kinds of animals and would love the opportunity to get to know your pets and their individual personalities and routines. I know how important it is to leave your pets with someone you trust, and I’ll treat them with the same care and attention I would want for my own. Our home is a very pet-friendly and welcoming environment, and our own pets are a huge part of our everyday life. We currently have 2 dogs and 5 cats, so we’re very comfortable with animals and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level. Because I’m an at-home wife, I’m home the majority of the day and can provide frequent supervision, attention, and companionship. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any special instructions you provide. We have a large, fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely get outside, play, and enjoy some fresh air. We also live right next to a park and creek, which gives us plenty of opportunities for walks and outdoor time for pets who enjoy exploring. Safety and trust are extremely important to me. I know how hard it can be to leave your pets with someone else, so I want you to feel confident that they’re being cared for, loved, and treated like family while they’re with me. I also understand that not every pet is comfortable around other animals. I’m happy to discuss your pet’s personality and needs beforehand and make sure we have a plan that keeps everyone comfortable and safe. For pets who need or are more comfortable with their own separate space, we also run available to set up kennel(s). I’m happy to accommodate individual needs and make sure every pet has a safe and comfortable environment. Safety and trust are extremely important to me. I know how difficult it can be to leave your pets with someone else, so I want you to feel confident that they’re being cared for, supervised, loved, and treated like family while they’re with me.
“This was my first time leaving my doggies with Mikaela while out on a work trip. I felt very at ease with her and her beautiful family. She is definitely very caring, responsive and attentive. I will definitely use her services again.”

“Suzanne was very friendly and did an excellent job caring for and loving on my cat when I was away. I will definitely keep her in mind for the future and recommend her to others.”
About: I’ve had cats for the past 7 years and currently have 5 cats of my own (Charlie, Scarlett, Mousse, Bandit, and Butter), so cats are a very big part of my everyday life! I’ve always loved their individual personalities and quirks, and I’m very comfortable giving cats the patience and space they need to feel safe and comfortable. I also have a bit of a habit of becoming the neighborhood cat sitter! I regularly look after cats in my neighborhood and love getting to know all of their different personalities. I have a bit of a cat weakness lol. I’ve also cared for friends’ cats, including one very special Maine Coon who has some health problems. She has become one of my favorite cats in the world, and caring for her has given me experience with being attentive to a cat’s individual health needs, routines, and comfort level. Whether your cat is social and loves attention, playful and curious, shy and needs some patience, or prefers to do their own thing, I’m happy to meet them where they are. My goal is always to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for while you’re away. The only service I’m unable to offer for cats is boarding them in my home. Since I have 5 cats of my own, I know how territorial cats can be, and I don’t want to put a visiting cat in an environment that could be stressful or uncomfortable for them. Instead, I’m happy to provide drop-in visits or care in your home, where your cat can stay in their own familiar and comfortable environment. I think this is often the best option for cats, especially those who are more independent or easily stressed by changes in their surroundings.
About: Raised an australian shepard pup and kept her occupied and also have dog sat, walked and had sleep overs with from huskies to shelter pups. Never met a dog I didn't like. I have a very open schedule for frequent walk and stop ins. Setting pups up for the night and making sure they are tired from every walk. I always ask what their typical routine is to mimic it in the dogs safe space and am focused on replicating it as well as I can.
“Kristen went way above and beyond! even volunteered to leave the feather toy that Matty loved so much. I was gone for 1 week and when I came back my cat was happy and content! Highly recommend and will use again”
“Tinisha was great with our pups for drop in visits in our home. We had to be away from the house for the day last minute and I was so relieved to know they were well taken care of with the great updates and pics. Thank you!”
“Jasmine was an amazing care taker! She took the time to make sure my cats were well taken care of and provided great communication. Titan and Aspen were so happy to have her come by”
About: Reliable, active, and caring dog sitter who treats every pup like family. I provide personalized attention, plenty of playtime, and a safe, loving environment so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. As a teacher and volleyball coach, caring for others is already a big part of my daily routine. My schedule is built around responsibility, consistency, and staying active, which makes pet care a natural fit. Whether it’s morning walks, playtime, feeding, or evening check-ins, I make sure every pet receives plenty of attention, exercise, and care throughout the day. I follow your pet’s normal routine; such as feeding, walks, playtime, and cuddles; while keeping your home tidy, secure, and filled with comfort in your absence
About: I absolutely love cats! My partner and I recently took in a pregnant mama and fostered her three kittens which gave me so much hands on experience I never expected. It’s been such a rewarding experience getting to watch them grow, flourish, and become healthy, social little fur balls🐱
About: Hey there! Taking care of animals is a passion of mine. The unconditional love they give us is just a great feeling. So a little about me, I went to Tarleton State for Animal Science. I want the animals to be comfortable with me and in the environment. Animals deserve extra love and attention, specially when you’re busy all day or going out of town. I’ve worked as a veterinary technician with animals for 8+ years, as well as taking care of animals outside of work. I love all sorts of animals and think they deserve the same care as humans get! Dogs have feelings too! I believe animals need to go out a lot and get exercise as well as socializing. Dogs need just as much love as we need! I will always try to accommodate my schedule to make sure the fur babies have plenty of time to get some fresh air, potty break and some love during the day! When I care of clients fur babies, I always make sure to follow your guidelines with your babies. That being if they needed to be leash walked or they get to run free in the yard.
About: I have always had several dogs in my home growing up, am a dog lover at heart, and miss my pups. I work in Waco so I am available anywhere between Waco and temple! Like I said, I work remote 100% of the time, so I don’t have any time or day restrictions really. I am also available weekends, etc. I have lots of love to give& great bully rubs!! I am very mindful of making sure they have water, etc. I love dogs of all shapes and sizes, can’t wait to meet yours.
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life, growing up on a farm where caring for a variety of animals was part of everyday life. My experience also includes working as a wrangler out West, where I handled and cared for horses and livestock in a professional setting. From puppies and dogs to larger animals, I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. At home, I have an energetic English Springer Spaniel puppy who loves making new friends and playing with other dogs. We have a fully fenced yard with plenty of room to run, play, and explore safely. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, active playtime, or just extra attention and affection, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and treated like part of the family while they’re with me. Daily updates and photos are always included so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I work outside the home from typically 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM on weekdays and am typically home the rest of the day. This allows me to spend plenty of quality time with pets in my care, including walks, playtime, potty breaks, and lots of attention. My evenings and weekends are largely spent at home, ensuring your pet receives plenty of companionship and care throughout their stay. Pets are cared for in a safe, calm home with a fully fenced yard for supervised outdoor time. When I’m away at work, all pets stay safely inside. I maintain a structured, secure environment and provide attentive care based on lifelong animal experience, ensuring your pet feels comfortable and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I’ve owned and taken care of cats for 20+ years. I’ve worked with a wide range of cat personalities from feral to super friendly. I can understand the social cues from cats and can notice most medical issues early on due to my vet/med background. I have experience administering medications/injections/fluids, and have learned calming methods.

About: Hello my name is Cayla. I’m from Houston, Tx and I've been an animal lover my whole life. I’ve raised other animals in FFA for my high school years while alson having other house hold pets within the years ( rabbit, turtle, dogs, and fish). I’m choosing to do Rover so I can build clientele and so I can expand my knowledge on dogs outside my pit bull and a few other breeds I’ve dealt with within my family and friends. Hopefully I’m someone you’ll love and trust around your home and your four-legged best friend. I do work from home and only work 4 days out the week so it's no hassle making sure everything and everyone is doing great. During the booking process I do ask for a routine so I can keep everything consistent. I do have doggie treats, extra blankets, training pads, and doggie toys I keep on stand by. In the morning I will open cages and let them move around freely aslong as im home and awake. If they need medication I have no problem giving it to them aswell, I do work from home so that will not be an issue.
“Suzanne was so awesome!! I needed a sitter last minute and she was able to watch my dogs for me. She was really sweet and my dogs came back smiling and happy. I for sure will be booking again with her. Thank you!!!!”
“She was very friendly, updated me multiple times with pictures on how my pup was doing! I was gonna be running very late for pickup and she was very accommodating!! Definitely will be reaching out to her again next time i have to go out of town!”
About: My genuine interest and love for my own babies coupled with their happy, carefree, and free-roam attitudes makes me a prime & the right candidate to be your pet's new friend. I have two furbabies that I absolutely love & adore. I understand the importance and severity of wanting them to go... unfortunately, they simply can't for whatever reason. So, you do the next best thing, you hire me. Give me the opportunity to extend my love, adoration and safe environment to your furbaby (canine or feline). If you hire me, worrying about your pet will be the least of your worries, as it should be. Help me to help you give your pet a vacation-like stay while you're away. You'll be glad you did. I'm retired so I'm home all day. I have lots of time to hang, lounge and play with your furbaby(ies) and I'll enjoy every minute In my home and client's home, the treatment is basically the same. Furbabies are given cuddles, hugs, and attention. They are fed, walked and allowed to run around and squabble in the back yard.
About: I have been taking care of animals of all kinds since I was about 10 years old. I have been trusted with both family and friends fur babies on multiple occasions.

I have a large fenced in back yard as well as my own fur babies who love making new friends. I have a kennel available for use if needed, but I like to let the dogs run around and play as long as possible!

“Krysta and her family were great with my pups. They seemed to have had a good time there and didn’t seem to want to go home with me. I would recommend her and will book with her again.”
About: I've always had multiple animals and will love your fur baby or babies like my own. I have base acces, so that won't be a problem. I'm currently a stay at home mom with a 5 year old who loves to help if it is safe for him to do so. I have a fenced in backyard and a silly miniature schnauzer who loves making new friends. I also have a dependable car if in-home animal sitting if that is what you are more comfortable with.

About: I have been taking care of all kinds of animals since I was very young. Family, friends, and neighbors have trusted me with their fur babies. I'm currently taking care of my home and family. I have plenty of time to love on your fur babies. I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule. I have a fenced yard and one friendly pup and a homeschooled daughter to keep your fur babies company. I do have the ability to crate your fur baby if requested or necessary.
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was old enough to handle responsibilities. I grew up on 10 acres and have provided love and care for dogs, cats, birds(pigeons, chickens, parakeets), and horses. I have volunteered at animal shelters since high school and have pet sat for both families and friends. I love all animals and am excited to meet all the fur babies! I’m a stay at home mom who is looking for a fun and furry way to spend time. I would be around most of the time to ensure your fur baby has what they need. I have my own fur baby as well, an indoor kitty named Jasmine. I have a large fence in yard and a large dog crate for when I do need to step out which will be kept in the air conditioning. They will get daily walks, weather permitting, and as much outdoor time as they wish. If there is anything particular your fur baby enjoys, let me know and I will provide it if it is in my capabilities.
About: While I’ve been around dogs for over 10 years, most of my hands-on care experience comes from being a full-time mama—which means I’m no stranger to routines, messes, or giving lots of love and attention! I also work full-time from home, so your pup won’t be left alone and will get plenty of care, playtime, and snuggles throughout the day. What really sets me apart is that we live a low-tox lifestyle—so my home is a clean, pet-safe space free of harsh chemicals and full of love. Your dog will be treated like family here, surrounded by sweet kids, fresh air, and a relaxed, playful environment. Whether they need a walk, a nap buddy, or a consistent routine, I’ve got it covered—just like I do for my own little crew. I work full-time from home, so I’m able to be with your pup all day. We’re a very active family that loves spending time outdoors, so your dog will get plenty of attention, fresh air, and playtime!

I work from home full-time, so your dog will get constant love and attention throughout the day. Our mini schnauzer, Bogey, is very relaxed and loves being around other dogs—he’s the perfect companion for visiting pups! Safety and trust are top priorities, and we do everything we can to make your dog feel safe, happy, and right at home.
About: I have experience caring for dogs for friends and family, including walks, feeding, and playtime. As a mom, I’m naturally patient, attentive, and nurturing, I treat every dog like part of my own family. I keep you updated, follow instructions carefully, and make sure your pet gets the best care every time. As a full-time student and stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule and enjoy getting outside. I’d love to spend that time walking and caring for dogs and cats I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions from the owner. I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their family is away.
“Noodles had so much fun playing at Josh’s house! Communication was great and I always felt super comfortable. Loved getting the report card of how she did with lots more pics!”
About: We have raised 3 different dogs together. Two of those furr babies required medical care and special diets, so we are always very attentive and careful with all pets needs! We recently lost our precious boy River, due to his liver disease and we miss his presence tremendously. So having other pets over truly helps keep us going and having a boost of morale. With that being said, we will give your pet 100% of our attention at all times. You can trust your pet will be supervised and cared for all day. At least one of us is always home to supervise when we are dog sitting so your pet is never alone. We have a small dog park at our complex for some outdoor fun time, and can provide daily walks as well to ensure they get more exercise! We have made our home safe for your dog keeping certain things out of reach. I can update you regularly with picture updates as well!

About: I am a stay at home homesteader that has three rescue doggos that live inside and a guardian livestock dog that spends her days taking care of the farm. We have hatched, raised and spend our days giving all the snacks to almost 50 chickens, 17 guineas, and 6 ducks. We have 2 goats one of which is about to give us a third. I know how hard it can be the travel with peace of mind without your babies with you, and I’d love to be able to help people enjoy your time away from home. Being able to set my own schedule while caring for other animals will allow me the ability to still care for my own animals without pulling time from them. I will do my very best to keep your fur babies routines exactly the same, and love and care for them like I love and care for my own babies.
“My baby boy LOVEEESSS Suzanne! She always brings him treats and goes on mile long walks that he absolutely enjoys. She is like a part of our family and we are blessed to have her.”

We know it can be difficult trusting your fur baby with someone new or just not having them by your side but we would love to do anything to help you and your fur baby feel comfortable with their stay. We have a park right by our house to walk and intact with other dogs. You dog would have the opportunity to run around play on our property where we would take your dog for a walk and play. Although we both work full time we would make your fur babies our top priority. Our house is puppy/ dog proof. We want you to feel comfortable with us as well as allowing us to take care of your baby.

“My dog absolutely LOVED Kimmie from the very first meeting. And my pup can be somewhat reserved around new people so that told me all I needed to know about Kimmie’s ability to connect to pets. Kimmie is very professional, reliable and trustworthy. I would highly recommend her.”

About: I consider myself the perfect caregiver. Flexible schedule, lots of love, high energy. With references! I have been dog/house sitting for friends regularly for a few years, and a pet enthusiast/caregiver my entire life! I have experience with multiple types of animals. I am a part-time stylist looking to fill my extra time getting paid for something I love to do. My two Siamese cats, Pixie & Dusty, are pretty low maintenance. They have dry food/water dispensers and get wet food as a “treat” at dinner time. My Great Dane puppy, Memphis, needs a little bit more of my time. If I stay over at your house, I need to make sure my dog is kenneled by 8pm, and let out the next morning no later than 6:30am. My schedule is very flexible otherwise! At client’s homes I always follow instructions carefully. I prefer to have a few notes of written instructions to reference. Instructions can be printed out or sent to my phone. My animals are pretty low-maintenance, so if I end up sitting locally at a clients home, it’s not a lot of trouble. I don’t mind sleeping/cuddling with your furbaby at night. ❤️
About: Raised an australian shepard pup and kept her occupied and also have dog sat, walked and had sleep overs with from huskies to shelter pups. Never met a dog I didn't like. I have a very open schedule for frequent walk and stop ins. Setting pups up for the night and making sure they are tired from every walk. I always ask what their typical routine is to mimic it in the dogs safe space and am focused on replicating it as well as I can.
About: I have been in the veterinary setting since I was sixteen and I've been a veterinary technician for a couple years now! I am now focusing on the most important thing in life which is family and I would love to take care of your fur babies when you need it! I am a certified forehead kisser and a great conversationalist with the non-speaking, I do not discriminate on personality and/or breed. I am confident in my ability to make your fur baby feel comfortable in my presence and I can't wait to meet you! I am available early mornings to afternoons until about 3pm-5pm! (Open to longer days depending on your schedule) Weekend availability when needed. As of right now, I am not offering any overnight stays. Before taking care of your pet, I would love to meet them and also have you show me around your home and/or list out any specifications or requirements. (written out instructions are definitely a preference to have on hand!) If you feel comfortable having the pet at my home, I do live in a gated community with plenty of area for walks and outside time! My home is currently run by a cat named James Alexander Malcolm Mackenzie Fraser (bonus points if you know who that is) and he could not care less about dogs so he'll just deliver the constant side eye. I am very comfortable administering medicine if needed (including injections) I do require some form of flea and tick prevention - whether that be Nexgard, Seresto collar, or essential oils.
About: I have had animals my entire life and currently have 5 dogs, 5 cats and a horse. My full time job is on a farm taking care of horses so I have the ability to administer fist aid and medications and am comfortable with all sizes and shapes of animals. Also have experience with goats and pigs. I currently work part time and travel some for work so my schedule is flexible and easy to work around. I have the ability to work evenings and weekends when needed. I will make sure to follow all the instructions given to me to properly care for your pet. I have extreme attention to detail and am able to recognize if there might be a problem with an animal because my job has been to have an awareness about how an animal is acting for the past 10 years. I also have extensive experience with my own pets and different issues they have had through my life.
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats of every shape and size, i have experience with all health issues and can give meds as well as shots. i can also groom ( 4+ years experience with all breeds) as well as care for your fur babies in any aspect they need! I have a very flexible schedule and can fit any of your time needs. I also can stick to your normal schedule so your dog does not feel out of place. I put your pets as a priority. I have a fenced in yard, and offer leash walking potty breaks. I also have a few pups of mine inside that are friendly and ready to play. I can also offer a crate for your dogs and keep them comfy no matter what they need!
About: Reliable, active, and caring dog sitter who treats every pup like family. I provide personalized attention, plenty of playtime, and a safe, loving environment so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. As a teacher and volleyball coach, caring for others is already a big part of my daily routine. My schedule is built around responsibility, consistency, and staying active, which makes pet care a natural fit. Whether it’s morning walks, playtime, feeding, or evening check-ins, I make sure every pet receives plenty of attention, exercise, and care throughout the day. I follow your pet’s normal routine; such as feeding, walks, playtime, and cuddles; while keeping your home tidy, secure, and filled with comfort in your absence
About: I grew up on a 100-acre ranch with 13 dogs, so caring for animals has been part of my daily life for as long as I can remember. I helped raise numerous litters of puppies, which taught me everything from feeding schedules and socialization to house training and keeping a close eye on the little ones. Today I regularly watch my friends’ pets and care for my grandparents’ two dogs — feeding, walks, playtime, and lots of attention. Dogs are my favorite people, and I treat every one like my own. I can’t wait to meet your best friend! I’m a stay-at-home mom, so I’m home the majority of the day and your pup will rarely be left alone. My schedule is flexible, which means plenty of time for walks, potty breaks, playtime, and sticking to whatever routine your dog is used to. The house is quiet and calm, which works well for dogs who prefer a low-key environment. My home is a safe, pet-friendly space where your dog is treated like family. We have a large fully fenced backyard with plenty of room to run, play, and sniff around safely. I have a mini blue heeler of my own who’s great company for social dogs, and I’m happy to keep visiting pets separated if yours does better solo (only have her occasionally). I stick closely to the feeding, medication, and walking routine you provide, keep dogs leashed on every outing, and send photo and video updates so you always know how your best friend is doing. If your dog is crate-trained, I’m comfortable using one for rest or bedtime.
About: A house is not a home without paw prints 🐾 I will love your furrbabies like my own! 💗 Note I offer daycare services for cats as well! My pet-care experience incudes looking after dogs, cats and other various small animals since I was a teen. I've worked at pet stores, veterinary clinics, shelters and adoption agencies. When it comes to animals in my care, my goal is to provide a happy and stress-free experience. 🌈 I will use positive reinforcement techniques to engage with your pet and bear in mind any behavior or medical issues. 💜 I'm accepting same day bookings and require 3 days notice for boarding and house sitting cancellations. I am available most days of the week and I'm very flexible with arrangements, however typically I stay within a 30 mile range of my home. I can board small dogs, puppies, special needs dogs, and seniors. Animals that board with me receive attention and enrichment their entire stay except while I'm at work. ❗️ Vaccinations and prevention must be up to date to board❗️ For emergency situations please have leashes and/or carriers available for each pet. I'm sort of a neat freak and will probably poop-scoop your yard or knock out some dishes for the heck of it. That said, I have no problem doing a few extra things around the house while I'm looking after your pets. If you have a few other critters like reptiles, birds, fish, rodents, you name it I can look after them as well! 🐈🐩🐇🐢🐠 🐦
About: I have always had several dogs in my home growing up, am a dog lover at heart, and miss my pups. I work in Waco so I am available anywhere between Waco and temple! Like I said, I work remote 100% of the time, so I don’t have any time or day restrictions really. I am also available weekends, etc. I have lots of love to give& great bully rubs!! I am very mindful of making sure they have water, etc. I love dogs of all shapes and sizes, can’t wait to meet yours.
About: I grew up in an animal shelter. Sounds crazy right? Well, it's true. My mom has always worked around animals(and still does) so I was always right by her side. Whether it be at animal shelters, helping with adoptions, walking, feeding, giving medications. Anything to be involved ! Then she became a Veterinarian. So of course, when I got old enough, I worked at her clinic. I've truely worked with animals my whole life and have always had animals of my own. I am currently working as an Animal Rescue Coordinator each day but would love to further my pet care business . My fur babies are my children and I treat them as so. You will always be able to find comfort knowing that I will treat your fur babies with the same love and care as my own! My favorite thing to do is spend time with my 3 dogs. A few things we love doing are going to the dog park, playing fetch, frisbee, going to the lake to swim, agility, hiking, and of course getting frozen yogurt! I would be more than happy to spend time with your pup doing these things. I'm sure they deserve it! I can't wait to spoil your pup and put your mind at ease knowing he/she is loved, safe, and happy while you're away. Your fur babies deserve the best! I currently work part time in VetMed so my schedule is fairly flexible. I have a small hobby farm of my own with several different types of pets that I love caring for. However, I love working with other pets and providing an established routine and relationship, as well. I will be available most weekdays and some weekends. I care for pets in my home/client’s home as if they were my own. They are allowed on furniture/beds if the owner is okay with this. I have doggy gates for separation of other animals if needed. Pets are never left unattended in my home. If I must leave for any reason, your pet must be kenneled in my home. In your home, I will adhere to your routine and guidelines of course.

“Sarah is so amazing with our dogs! One is super high anxiety and he gets very comfortable at her house! It’s a blessing to not have to worry about him as much when we are gone.”
“We were so lucky Maddison & Wesley were available to watch Heidi my daughters dog while I had a major surgery. It was very last minute. They were able to do a meet the same day I contacted them and watch her starting that Mon-Wed. It was such a relief knowing they had dogs her same size and they knew how to handle her. She’s a cuddle bug but very big and solid! We thank your family for being so AWESOME!!”
“Dorothy was wonderful with Kimora! She was very communicative throughout the night and sent frequent updates and photos, which really eased my anxious dog-mama heart. I felt completely comfortable knowing Kimora was in such good hands. I would absolutely recommend Dorothy and would happily book with her again.”
“Krystal was awesome. She replied quickly and even kept Ozzy an extra day because I was stuck out of town with work. She was great with Ozzy and even discussed his habits with me. Definitely recommend Krysta.”
“Amazing! Not only did Lindsey have the perfect setup for my large dog's stay with a wonderful house and yard, but her care for my pup was amazing. Lindsey communicated so well and made sure to ask all the right questions to care for my pup - especially the ones I forgot to bring up. 10/10 I would send my good boy there again. He was clearly comfortable, cared for, and made new friends!”
“Monse took great care of my puppy! I loved all of the photo updates that I received! My puppy looked so happy in all of them! Thank you for taking care Remi, It was less stressful being away knowing she was in good hands!”
“Josh is always awesome! Takes great care of my 2 labs and he even took my Coosa to vet due to blood in her urine while I was out of town. Made sure my girl was taken care of. Josh is super awesome with his animals and treats mine like one of his own. Couldn’t recommend him anymore!”
“Shane took care of my two dogs for 2 weeks while I was out of the country. He sent me pictures and updates of the puppies every single day. He was just amazing and my dogs love him now. I highly recommend his service. He is great!”
“I feel so blessed to have found Jordan last minute. She was so patient and sweet to our Aussie who is super timid and anxious. She sent pictures every day to keep us reassured. Coco loved her!”
“I had to leave my very nervous boys for the first time and they did so well! Suzanne was great in providing updates, sending lots of pictures, and adjusting to the needs of the dogs that it made me feel at ease to leave them in her care overnight and just be able to focus on my event. Definitely will bring my boys back to her whenever I need someone to look after them again💓”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who would be thrilled to care for your pets like they’re part of my own family. I’ve had dogs my entire life and have had cats for the past 7 years. My home is currently filled with 7 animals of my own—2 dogs and 5 cats! They’re definitely my favorite part of home life (other than my husband, of course lol). I regularly care for the pets of my family and friends, including my brother-in-law’s dog, who I watch very frequently, as well as my family’s 2 dogs and cat. I also occasionally care for a close friend’s dog. One of my longer pet-sitting experiences was caring for my cousin’s dog for 3 months while she recovered from a broken leg. We are an extremely pet-friendly household and genuinely love having animals around. When friends come over, we’re always telling them to bring their pets! My schedule is currently completely open, and as an at-home wife, I’m able to be home with your pets for the majority of the day most days. I’m happy to provide plenty of attention, companionship, playtime, walks, and cuddles so your pets feel comfortable and loved while you’re away. I’m comfortable caring for all kinds of animals and would love the opportunity to get to know your pets and their individual personalities and routines. I know how important it is to leave your pets with someone you trust, and I’ll treat them with the same care and attention I would want for my own. Our home is a very pet-friendly and welcoming environment, and our own pets are a huge part of our everyday life. We currently have 2 dogs and 5 cats, so we’re very comfortable with animals and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level. Because I’m an at-home wife, I’m home the majority of the day and can provide frequent supervision, attention, and companionship. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any special instructions you provide. We have a large, fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely get outside, play, and enjoy some fresh air. We also live right next to a park and creek, which gives us plenty of opportunities for walks and outdoor time for pets who enjoy exploring. Safety and trust are extremely important to me. I know how hard it can be to leave your pets with someone else, so I want you to feel confident that they’re being cared for, loved, and treated like family while they’re with me. I also understand that not every pet is comfortable around other animals. I’m happy to discuss your pet’s personality and needs beforehand and make sure we have a plan that keeps everyone comfortable and safe. For pets who need or are more comfortable with their own separate space, we also run available to set up kennel(s). I’m happy to accommodate individual needs and make sure every pet has a safe and comfortable environment. Safety and trust are extremely important to me. I know how difficult it can be to leave your pets with someone else, so I want you to feel confident that they’re being cared for, supervised, loved, and treated like family while they’re with me.
“This was my first time leaving my doggies with Mikaela while out on a work trip. I felt very at ease with her and her beautiful family. She is definitely very caring, responsive and attentive. I will definitely use her services again.”
“My dog came home so happy. Tatum is the best. She sends everyday a picture of my dog while walking to the dog park, sleeping after a long day. I know shes well taking care of. she cleans all her stuff before going home. I cant say thank you enough.”
“Katelyn and her family have been so accommodating! My schedule can be a bit unpredictable whether it's work or vacation. Katelyn works with me on if I'm going to be early or a bit late. My only complaint is that she can be booked on the weekends I need her! Clearly others will agree that she takes great care of your fur babies. Brody always looks happy and relaxed in her care. The extra attention from the kiddos helps!”
“Leslie and her husband took AMAZING care of our 2 boys (1yr old lab and 1.5yr old German shepherd). They sent plenty of updates with pictures and videos - and even worked on all of their “tricks” with them. I can definitely say they went above and beyond for our dogs. We've never had a better experience leaving our pups somewhere then we did with Leslie (including family…. ?). I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, safe, and trustworthy dog sitter.”
