“Kalley is an amazing sitter. She took awesome pictures and updated me daily on how my baby was doing. Thank you so much Kalley. We’ll be booking with again soon!”
“Bella did a phenomenal job watching Luna. We were in need of new overnight boarding arrangements and we hit the jackpot finding her. We organized a meet and greet before our pup stayed with her so Luna was very comfortable coming back to stay for the weekend. We received many videos and pictures updates during her stay.. putting our hearts and minds at ease while we enjoyed our trip our of town. I highly recommend her and we will be rebooking in the near future! Thank you for caring for Luna like your own family!”
“Heather was great! Kept me informed on how my dog Cody was doing and sent pics of him with her dogs. Cody seemed to love her Lab. Lots of room to run in her fenced in back yard. Will definitely use her again!”
“Yogi enjoyed his stay. I like that there are options. Dogs can stay in the house. But if they are more comfortable outside, she has a deck with access to a fenced in grass area. Good communication. No problems.”
“Desirae was absolutely wonderful and treated our pup like family. Her and her family are super sweet and she would send us pictures and keep us updated on how our girl was doing. It was our first time leaving her with a sitter since we adopted her. It was hard leaving her for the weekend, but it helped knowing that she was on good hands. Thank you so much Desirae!”
“Pamela was fantastic! My dog is usually super clingy and a bit nervous in new environments but the minute we got to Pamela’s house he acted like he lived there. He honestly didn’t even notice I left. Plus Pamela sent me daily photos and updates on how Remi was doing. Easy 5 stars, would confidently let her watch Remi again!”
“Scott & Sarah made the drop off and pick up super easy, and sent many photos to brighten my day while my pups were in their care. Lots of TLC! We will definitely book with them again next year!”
About: Hi! I’m Hope, a lifelong dog lover and experienced pet sitter offering in home dog boarding in a calm, family setting. I’m a stay at home mom to my two year old, so your dog will have constant supervision, attention, and care throughout the day. Our home is peaceful, loving, and ideal for dogs who enjoy being part of a family environment. We’re lucky to have a beautiful setup for pups: a fenced front yard/garden for safe outdoor time, plus an acre of land and nearby dog friendly trails for walks, sniffing, and exploring. Whether your dog loves playtime or prefers a slower pace, I tailor care to their needs and routine. Because I have a young child, I do require that all dogs are comfortable around children. Your dog will be treated like one of our own with plenty of love, structure, and attention so they feel safe, relaxed, and at home while you’re away. I’d love to meet you and your pup! Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine since I’m a stay-at-home mom and home throughout the day. Your dog will be part of our everyday rhythm—morning outdoor time, walks, play, rest, and evening wind-down. Because I’m home most of the time, I’m able to provide consistent supervision, attention, and care without long gaps. Throughout the week, I keep a steady routine while also adjusting to each dog’s needs, energy level, and schedule. My goal is to create a calm, predictable environment where your dog feels comfortable and cared for like part of the family. I send lots of updates and pictures and follow all care instructions carefully! I want you to feel comfortable with your pet in my care!
“Lauren was absolutely amazing with our pup!! I couldn't recommend her more!! She is SO kind and caring. I could tell from the moment we had a meet and greet with her and her pups. She provided us daily updates on our pup and treats your pets just as she does her own. I was so relieved to find someone that I can trust our beloved furbaby with from now on. I was kind of upset that my pup wasn't more excited to come home, but that's just a reflection of the good time she had on her little vacay!! 🤣 Highly recommend Lauren for all your fur baby care!!”
“Linda was wonderful with our sweet pup, Henry! Daily updates were very helpful and she went above and beyond to show him love. I would definitely have Linda take care of Henry again and would recommend highly!”
About: I love dogs and can't wait to take care of your furry friend! I have a large home, plenty of room for your dog to stretch out. I have a yellow lab/golden retriever mix who is very friendly. I have a fenced yard (about half an acre) and another 9 acres of unfenced area. I work from home during the week, so will have plenty of time for walks, play-time, etc. I am good with all ages/sizes. I will ensure your dog is comfortable and safe, and has plenty of attention! I work from home so am always around to care for your pets! Will have plenty of potty breaks and play time.

“Katelyn was amazing. Very attentive. Reached out to us everyday with pictures and videos. Great communication throughout the whole visit. Our dogs loved her. Very easy to work with. We did an initial visit then she agreed to watch on the spot. April, her dog, is amazing as well. We will definitely go with her again!”
“Jordan was amazing. In her profile she mentions last-minute options & that saved our last minute trip. I'm new to Rover & expected people's availability was accurate but over a dozen people provided bad info. She accepted hours before we dropped our dog with her. She was kind & brought my dog on errands & Starbucks for a pup cup.😂 Her location is super convenient driving from Arlington to 81 on 66. She has a few children that loved playing with Opal. She didn't introduce her dog with ours which is fine. Would definitely reach out again if we go that way.”
“Speaking with them put me at ease for leaving Opie there for 5 days! He had the best time and was loved on like one of their own pups! He played all the time and has been sleeping a lot since I picked him up! Would’ve loved more updates without having to reach out, but still a 10/10 experience! Will def use again and strongly recommend them for anyone else.”
“Rebekah was awesome, she sent a lot of updates which put me at ease knowing our baby was safe. She took her for walks and brushed her hair. I know she enjoyed the huge fenced in yard and met new furry friends which we hope to see again! Thank you for giving excellent safe care to our baby!”
“Jonathan met me at the door right on time and Bronco was welcomed by his dogs and they took off to the fully fenced in back yard and he fit right in. He was well taken care of and right on time for pick up. Highly recommend.”

“Nikita showed his skills as a dog handler from literally the moment he walked in, greeting the shy dog so skillfully that she happily went right up to him to say hi. He was great with rambunctious Duncan and my very energetic young puppy Holly, managing to keep them playing safely together until they were tired enough to give me a few hours of peace before they recharge their energy. I'll definitely book Nikita again!”
About: **I am currently unable to do house sitting/overnights. I am sometimes available for drops ins and almost always for dog walks so please don’t hesitate to still reach out! :) ** IG: @ pawsandclaws_petcare 🐶🐱** I have cared for dogs and other animals many times and have house sat to care for dogs, cats, and even lizards! I have three dogs myself, all sizes. I have a frenchie, a golden retriever, and an American bully! I lost my beloved shihtzu a few years, who I miss so much. I love all dogs any shape and size!

I would NOT take a job unless I knew 100% I could fully take care of the animals needs and am able commit to whatever you may be looking for! I have a large fenced in yard and three dog friendly dogs who love to play and are all UTD on vaccines. If I come to your home, I will make sure your animals are let out, fed, walked if needed and of course (most importantly) get some lovin’s and snuggles while I’m there! :) I update every client I have had with photos and videos of their animal(s)!
“I highly recommend Darian to take care of your pets! I needed someone reliable, and on very short notice, to take care of my precious skittish cat for three weeks. Darian did a wonderful job tending to all my cat's needs, and she accomplished the amazing by quickly getting my suspicious, standoffish cat to allow her to pet her! Darian also went the extra mile of cleaning up the floor several times when my cat coughed up hairballs and had other tummy issues. Darian had not taken care of my pet before, but she stepped in like a pro and took care of her, and kept tabs on my house as well. As I said at first, I highly recommend Darian for your pet!”
“Katie was fantastic! She spent a lot of time with all 4 cats and even got our shy boy out of hiding - a first. I felt confident that they were getting as much love and care as possible while we were away. I highly recommend Katie.”
About: I've taken care of dogs and cats my entire life. We have always had a pet for as long as I can remember. I love animals. I have taken care of puppies to senior animals. I have plenty of free time, so I would be able to keep your fur baby company anytime needed and give them lots of not only play time but affection.

About: I have been pet sitting for about 10 years, caring for pets for family, friends, and neighbors—and it’s truly one of my favorite things to do. I’m currently available for pet sitting Monday through Friday until 4:00 PM. During the summer, my schedule is more flexible, which allows me to accommodate additional visits and varying care needs. Whether your pet needs a quick potty break, feeding, playtime, a walk, medication, companionship, or just a friendly drop-in visit, I’m happy to help. My goal is to provide dependable, loving care that fits your pet’s routine and gives you peace of mind while you’re away. I provide a safe, loving, and calm environment where pets can feel comfortable, secure, and cared for while you’re away. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and special care instructions.
“Sherry was amazing! We decided to go on a last minute trip and she met with us the night before we left. She was so nice and a joy to be around so we knew Charlie would love her! This was our first time leaving him but we were reassured by her personality. She did everything we wanted and more. We can't thank her enough and we highly recommend her! We will definitely use her services in the future!”
About: What sets me apart is the warm, lively family environment I provide. As a mom of two, my home is already focused on care, routine, and patience. I am a stay at home mom of 2 school aged children, so my availability is unlimited. I will be there for you and your pet whenever you need me. I approach pet care with a focus on safety, comfort, and meeting each pet’s specific needs, whether they are in my own home or a client’s. Daily Care & Routine Feeding & Hydration: I provide meals at the correct times and in the right portions, following the owner’s or pet’s dietary needs. Fresh water is always available. Exercise & Play: Dogs get regular walks and play sessions; cats and other pets receive interactive play, puzzle toys, and enrichment activities to keep them mentally stimulated. Grooming: I brush fur, clean ears, and trim nails as needed to maintain hygiene and a healthy coat. Health Monitoring: I watch for changes in appetite, behavior, or physical condition and report any concerns to the owner or recommend a vet if necessary. Safe & Comfortable Environment I create a secure, hazard-free space with designated resting areas, pet gates, and soft bedding. I keep the living area clean, regularly cleaning litter boxes, picking up waste, and maintaining tidiness. For client homes, I check for safety hazards, secure gates, and ensure all pet access points are safe. Enrichment & Socialization I provide a variety of toys, scratching posts, and chew items to encourage natural behaviors. I spend quality time with pets through play, cuddling, and talking to build trust and reduce stress. I may reinforce basic training or good behavior during care. Communication & Consistency I follow the owner’s schedule for feeding, walks, and playtime to maintain routine and reduce anxiety. For client pets, I give regular updates via text, photos, or video to keep owners informed and reassured. I honor any specific instructions the owner has for care, feeding, or behavior. Special Considerations If I specialize in senior pet care, I provide gentle handling, extra attention, and a calm environment to support their comfort. For boarding or day care, I maintain a clean, safe, and welcoming space with plenty of social interaction. By combining consistent routines, attentive care, and a safe, pet-friendly environment, I ensure pets are happy, healthy, and well-cared for, whether they are in my home or a client’s.
“Megan is the best! She always goes above and beyond to make sure our pets feel extra loved when we are out of town. We hope to continue to use Megan in the future.”
About: With experience caring for kittens, seniors and many more, I'm attentive to health cues, behavior changes, and comfort needs. I will always be patience with shy or anxious cats, helping them feel safe and secure at their own pace. I don't just stop by to feed and clean, I take the time to understand your cats routines, quirks, and needs. The goal is making sure they feel comfortable, loved, and stress-free while you're away.
About: I currently have 4 cats whose ages range from 1 to 10 years old, so I have experience caring for cats in many different stages of life. Each of my cats has a completely different personality and different needs, which has taught me patience, attentiveness, and how to make every cat feel comfortable in their own way. Some are playful and energetic, while others are more shy and relaxed, so I understand the importance of respecting boundaries, routines, and comfort levels. Growing up around animals and caring for multiple cats has made me very confident in feeding, playtime, litter box care, giving attention, and creating a calm, safe environment for pets.

About: I’ve been caring for animals my entire life. I genuinely love being around pets and have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and routines.

“Jordan was amazing! I plan to book her again if available! I can tell my pup was excited & happy with his doggy daycare visits. Not only did she accept my last minute booking, but she was open and very negotiable with pick uo & drop off times. She frequently sent pics, walked my pup multiple time a day & had no doubts leaving my dog in her care. Would highly encourage anyone to consider booking her for pet services!”
About: I've always had a love for animals and love working with them! I've grown up with dogs and love to be around them. My mom used to breed labs and I would help her socialize and take care of the puppies to prepare them for their new homes! My family always had at least six dogs at a time that I would help take care of as well! I also used to work for a kennel for almost two years, I have worked for a doggie daycare as well for about 2 years! I am currently enrolled in an online vet tech course and plan to finish that in the next year or so. I currently work a full time job 8-430 but am available weekends and would love to watch your pets!
“Breezy had an absolute ball! She came home tired and Wendy sent tons of photos and videos. It’s so relaxing to know that she was safe and sound all day. Not to mention, she had tons of fun! Wendy was very responsive and answered all my questions. She really went above and beyond to make breezy comfortable and give her a fun filled day!”
“Emily treated Hank like a little prince. She provided pictures throughout Hank’s stay showing him being pampered. It was great to know Hank was having a fun stay. Thank you Emily”
About: Hi, I'm Sara@ My passion is raising confident, well-socialized family dogs through positive reinforcement, structure, and enrichment. Dogs in my care are treated like family and stay in a home environment—not a kennel. I intentionally keep my capacity small so every dog receives individual attention, exercise, play, and plenty of affection. I have experience raising and training high-energy sporting breeds and especially enjoy working with puppies and adolescent dogs. Whether your pup is learning house manners, building confidence, or simply needs a safe and loving place to stay, my goal is to provide a positive experience that supports their development. My home includes children, which helps puppies learn appropriate interactions in a family setting. Safety, communication, and consistency are my top priorities, and you'll receive regular updates and photos while your dog is in my care. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. As a dedicated dog owner, my days already revolve around feeding schedules, exercise, training, enrichment activities, and plenty of one-on-one attention. Dogs in my care are treated like members of the family and are integrated into our daily routine rather than being left alone for long periods. I prioritize structured exercise, supervised play, mental stimulation, and positive reinforcement training throughout the day. Because I intentionally keep my capacity limited, I can provide personalized care and ensure each dog receives the attention, consistency, and companionship they deserve. When pets stay in my home, they are cared for as part of the family in a safe, structured, and supervised environment. I follow each pet's normal feeding schedule, potty routine, exercise needs, and any special instructions provided by their owner. Throughout the day, pets receive plenty of attention, supervised play, enrichment activities, rest time, and affection. Because I keep my capacity limited, I am able to provide individualized care rather than a crowded kennel experience. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident and connected while they're away. For drop-in visits or care in a client's home, I strive to maintain the pet's normal routine as closely as possible. This includes feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, administering medications if needed, and ensuring the pet feels comfortable and secure in their familiar environment. My goal is always to provide safe, reliable, and compassionate care while treating every pet as if they were my own
“Casper enjoyed his stay here. There is lots of room for the dogs to explore and have fun. Communication was great from the beginning, and she took great care of my dog while he stayed for day care.”
“My dog JoJo is always happy and content after spending a day with Thomas and his family. It feels good knowing that he is in a safe and loving environment while I’m away at work. Nothing beats having a peace of mind when it comes to your fur baby!”
“Haejin & Herscel were wondering caretakers! They were open to taking my dog for daycare a few days before and treated her so well. I liked that they only take a few dogs a day to reduce exposure and ensure they are all being watched. I loved the occasional photo and video updates, which her other daycare doesn't do it all. She came home very tired from playing all day, which was exactly what we wanted. I look forward to using them again!”
“Lauren was a great sitter! She was very conscientious about making Max’s stay comfortable for him and checked in with me throughout the day. I would definitely have her watch him again”
“Taking on a totally unknown dog from a cross-country road trip, IS a risk. We knew our senior dog Ginger would likely be stressed: 1st from the trip, and 2nd to be left with a stranger, in an unfamiliar environment. Linda really seems to love the dogs, she had 1-2 fosters there when we arrived (not sure, as I think I only saw 1). While I'm sure it was hard on both of them, we do sincerely appreciate her taking on our dog for a few hours, so that we could attend the wedding of an old family friend. If you read this Linda, I am interested in that food you had there for your fosters. Please shoot me a message, I may look at ordering it to try next time. Thanks again!”
“If you're looking for someone to take care of your pup like family, Natasha is the one! I was a bit nervous about leaving Sage, as she’s usually timid around new people, but Natasha’s warm and calm demeanor worked magic. Sage warmed up to her quickly and had a fantastic day playing with her dogs and spending time with her family. Natasha kept me in the loop with regular updates and adorable pictures, which completely eased my worries. It's clear she truly loves and understands animals. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. If you’re nervous about leaving your pet with someone, stop right here—Natasha will treat them like her own. Highly recommend and we will definitely be back!”
About: Dogs have always been part of our life and are treated as a member of the family. When in our house the dogs are allowed on furniture and we will treat them as they were our dog. We welcome calls to check up on your animal while they are staying with us. We will give them plenty of attention and someone will be around in the house to make sure they are doing well. We look forward to having your animal stay will us and giving them attention while they are here. We can even send you pictures or videos while you are gone to see how they are enjoying their stay. I am retired as a special education teacher and enjoy animals. Last year I lost my dog Sammy who was 19 years old and look forward to being with dogs. Our family treats pets like part of our family. We like to spend time with them and interact in the house as well as outside.
About: My dog Freckles and I would love to welcome other pups in our home, which features an open basement for dog play, a gated garage for outdoor lounging (see photos), and a small nearby park for dog walks. I work remotely from home during the week with a flexible schedule for taking the pups outside as needed. Morning and evening walks with occasional trips to the dog park. Treats throughout the day and meals as needed. Plenty of play and pets in between. I have a friendly dog named Freckles who loves to play with other dogs of all types and sizes. Dogs are allowed anywhere in the house as well as in my outdoor garage space which is gated off.
“My Ellie was so happy and tired when I picked her up! I can tell she had a great time with this family 🙂. Allison was very communicative and promptly greeted me upon drop-off/pick-up!”

“Katie is AMAZING! She’s walks my puppy during the day so he can get some energy out and get some exercise while I’m at a work and let me just say he looks SO SO SOOOO happy in all of the pictures she sends! I love how she sends me picture of him through out the walk and a report of how the walk went! I 100% recommend Katie for any of your needs!”

“Sherry took our menagerie of dogs and cats in stride when she arrived and she handled my dog Duncan with ease during the walk. She obviously loves animals and my dog, who is sometimes shy with strangers, immediately liked her and will be happy to see her the next time she comes. I highly recommend her if you need a good caretaker for your pets.”
“I was nervous having someone come into my home and take my pup on walks while I’m at work but Megan has been so great! My dog Dixie loves her! Thank you Megan for what you do! 😁”
“Mackenzie is great! She filled in for my regular dog walker pretty last minute, but made time to come meet my pup, Cody, beforehand and was fantastic with him -- plus extremely personable! She was very reliable and communicative; I am very grateful for her help!”

About: I have been around dogs my entire life. There isn't a time I can remember not having dogs around my entire childhood. So, I went into a dog-centered field. I am certified as dog obedience trainer, and have worked with my parents senior Westie. I am currently staying at home, so I have a lot of time. My husband works five days a week, and I would love to have a job. Usually Monday through Thursday are good, nine to three. I am hoping to eventually be able to board dogs overnight. I love dogs. They are usually all so friendly once they know you, and I enjoy loving on them. You can rest assured I will do everything, within reason, that I can do to keep a dog safe and healthy.
About: I have lots of experience with dogs, cats, birds, lizards, guinea pigs, and more! I have owned them my whole life for one. But I have also worked at a pet lodge for a year from 2024-2025. As well as doing lots of miscellaneous dog sitting for others. I’m currently not working, so I am free as a bird to help others with their fur babies. The more I meet with people the more I will be able to fill my time with cute pets! I treat pets as if they were my own. I give them love and attention. I make sure that all their needs are met, and complete with lots of snuggles!
About: Over the years I have worked with many different kinds of animals from house pets to farm animals to exotics. I have always had a passion for animals and grew up taking care of them. I have been working in the animal field since age 16 and currently work as an ER exotic veterinary technician student. I am employed full time, however my job allows me to bring pets into work with me should they need monitoring, time sensitive medications, etc. I am trained to handle both fearful and friendly pets as well as administering medications and monitoring overall health and behavior. If there are any special requirements or requests please let me know in advance so I can provide the best possible care for your pet.
“Alyssa was very professional and everything went perfectly smooth! She braved the wind and rain and made sure to update us that he went #1 and #2 which is always important for us pet parents to keep track of lol. She made sure she had time to snuggle with him before she left, and filled his water bowl. I could tell Dingo was content when I came home! I will definitely use Alyssa again in the future”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I currently have 4 cats and a 4-month-old puppy, so I understand the patience, attention, and love pets need every single day. Growing up surrounded by animals taught me how to care for pets with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. From playful puppies to independent cats, I’m comfortable handling feeding schedules, walks, playtime, cleanup, and giving pets lots of affection and attention. I treat every pet like family and always make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. I currently work a flexible part-time job, which gives me plenty of time throughout the week to care for pets and give them the attention they deserve. Since I also have 4 cats and a 4-month-old puppy of my own, pet care is already a big part of my daily routine. Caring for animals comes naturally to me, and I enjoy spending my free time with them. I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for whether I’m in my home or a client’s home. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality and needs, whether they’re energetic, shy, young, or older. In a client’s home, I always follow instructions carefully to keep pets on their normal routine and help them feel as stress-free and comfortable as possible while their owner is away.
About: I have experience not only pet sitting in someone’s home, but also outside of their home. I currently work as a dog bather, so I have experience with animals and handling there too! I am currently working part time, only about 20 hours a week, so I have plenty of time to give that special dog in your life a walk for you when you’re unable! Our yard is partially fenced in (half of it is fenced) and we have another dog in our house. Your dog will primarily stay with me, alone where I can watch them! And if they need to go out, I am able to take breaks when I need to to take them out.
About: I love animals. I will take the best care of your pet. I'm fine with handling aggressive ones and bigger dogs too. I've taken care of animals all my life, so you can travel without a worry. Right now I'm open any day and time. I can overnight stay and house sit as well. I'm a fan of cats and other animals too. I'll follow your instructions to the letter. I will always call for questions and not assume something on your property. I'm fine with taking videos and pictures

“Heather was great! Kept me informed on how my dog Cody was doing and sent pics of him with her dogs. Cody seemed to love her Lab. Lots of room to run in her fenced in back yard. Will definitely use her again!”
“Yogi enjoyed his stay. I like that there are options. Dogs can stay in the house. But if they are more comfortable outside, she has a deck with access to a fenced in grass area. Good communication. No problems.”
“Desirae was absolutely wonderful and treated our pup like family. Her and her family are super sweet and she would send us pictures and keep us updated on how our girl was doing. It was our first time leaving her with a sitter since we adopted her. It was hard leaving her for the weekend, but it helped knowing that she was on good hands. Thank you so much Desirae!”
“Pamela was fantastic! My dog is usually super clingy and a bit nervous in new environments but the minute we got to Pamela’s house he acted like he lived there. He honestly didn’t even notice I left. Plus Pamela sent me daily photos and updates on how Remi was doing. Easy 5 stars, would confidently let her watch Remi again!”
“Scott & Sarah made the drop off and pick up super easy, and sent many photos to brighten my day while my pups were in their care. Lots of TLC! We will definitely book with them again next year!”
About: Hi! I’m Hope, a lifelong dog lover and experienced pet sitter offering in home dog boarding in a calm, family setting. I’m a stay at home mom to my two year old, so your dog will have constant supervision, attention, and care throughout the day. Our home is peaceful, loving, and ideal for dogs who enjoy being part of a family environment. We’re lucky to have a beautiful setup for pups: a fenced front yard/garden for safe outdoor time, plus an acre of land and nearby dog friendly trails for walks, sniffing, and exploring. Whether your dog loves playtime or prefers a slower pace, I tailor care to their needs and routine. Because I have a young child, I do require that all dogs are comfortable around children. Your dog will be treated like one of our own with plenty of love, structure, and attention so they feel safe, relaxed, and at home while you’re away. I’d love to meet you and your pup! Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine since I’m a stay-at-home mom and home throughout the day. Your dog will be part of our everyday rhythm—morning outdoor time, walks, play, rest, and evening wind-down. Because I’m home most of the time, I’m able to provide consistent supervision, attention, and care without long gaps. Throughout the week, I keep a steady routine while also adjusting to each dog’s needs, energy level, and schedule. My goal is to create a calm, predictable environment where your dog feels comfortable and cared for like part of the family. I send lots of updates and pictures and follow all care instructions carefully! I want you to feel comfortable with your pet in my care!
“Lauren was absolutely amazing with our pup!! I couldn't recommend her more!! She is SO kind and caring. I could tell from the moment we had a meet and greet with her and her pups. She provided us daily updates on our pup and treats your pets just as she does her own. I was so relieved to find someone that I can trust our beloved furbaby with from now on. I was kind of upset that my pup wasn't more excited to come home, but that's just a reflection of the good time she had on her little vacay!! 🤣 Highly recommend Lauren for all your fur baby care!!”

“Katelyn was amazing. Very attentive. Reached out to us everyday with pictures and videos. Great communication throughout the whole visit. Our dogs loved her. Very easy to work with. We did an initial visit then she agreed to watch on the spot. April, her dog, is amazing as well. We will definitely go with her again!”
“Speaking with them put me at ease for leaving Opie there for 5 days! He had the best time and was loved on like one of their own pups! He played all the time and has been sleeping a lot since I picked him up! Would’ve loved more updates without having to reach out, but still a 10/10 experience! Will def use again and strongly recommend them for anyone else.”
“Rebekah was awesome, she sent a lot of updates which put me at ease knowing our baby was safe. She took her for walks and brushed her hair. I know she enjoyed the huge fenced in yard and met new furry friends which we hope to see again! Thank you for giving excellent safe care to our baby!”
“Jonathan met me at the door right on time and Bronco was welcomed by his dogs and they took off to the fully fenced in back yard and he fit right in. He was well taken care of and right on time for pick up. Highly recommend.”
About: Hi, I'm Sara@ My passion is raising confident, well-socialized family dogs through positive reinforcement, structure, and enrichment. Dogs in my care are treated like family and stay in a home environment—not a kennel. I intentionally keep my capacity small so every dog receives individual attention, exercise, play, and plenty of affection. I have experience raising and training high-energy sporting breeds and especially enjoy working with puppies and adolescent dogs. Whether your pup is learning house manners, building confidence, or simply needs a safe and loving place to stay, my goal is to provide a positive experience that supports their development. My home includes children, which helps puppies learn appropriate interactions in a family setting. Safety, communication, and consistency are my top priorities, and you'll receive regular updates and photos while your dog is in my care. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. As a dedicated dog owner, my days already revolve around feeding schedules, exercise, training, enrichment activities, and plenty of one-on-one attention. Dogs in my care are treated like members of the family and are integrated into our daily routine rather than being left alone for long periods. I prioritize structured exercise, supervised play, mental stimulation, and positive reinforcement training throughout the day. Because I intentionally keep my capacity limited, I can provide personalized care and ensure each dog receives the attention, consistency, and companionship they deserve. When pets stay in my home, they are cared for as part of the family in a safe, structured, and supervised environment. I follow each pet's normal feeding schedule, potty routine, exercise needs, and any special instructions provided by their owner. Throughout the day, pets receive plenty of attention, supervised play, enrichment activities, rest time, and affection. Because I keep my capacity limited, I am able to provide individualized care rather than a crowded kennel experience. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident and connected while they're away. For drop-in visits or care in a client's home, I strive to maintain the pet's normal routine as closely as possible. This includes feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, administering medications if needed, and ensuring the pet feels comfortable and secure in their familiar environment. My goal is always to provide safe, reliable, and compassionate care while treating every pet as if they were my own
