Personalized care for your dog or cat - Croker
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Croker
“This was my first time booking with Diahann and not only was my baby treated like family, he was given opportunities to choose an open kennel, soft blanket, or comfy bed to safely rest his little head on during the day. The peace of mind was amazing when seeing Sterno in so many adorable pics, as well as how kind Diahann's granddaughter treated my baby as they played fetch in a wonderful video I received early on in his stay. Sterno is very active and playful, and I couldn't have requested a better sitter for him!! Diahann truly cares like it's her own dog. There are cameras, a huge yard, and Sterno was very calm during pickup, which showcased how comfortable he had been. I am adding that Diahann was very responsive to a suggested video meet, and proceeded to give a wonderful tour of her Dog-friendly and dog-safe home before Sterno's drop off date. She is thoughtful like that. You will love her too! Thank you for this caring dog-sitting experience Diahann! I will def book again!”
“Nikkole was a pleasure to work with and to coordinate care for our pups. She was very communicative, kind, and most importantly, patient!! Our dogs can be a handful, but I was definitely at ease knowing they were in good hands with Nikkole. Thank you for everything!”
“Leslie is fantastic!!! We felt so good about leaving our baby with her. Basil has some separation anxiety (so do I) and she was great with both of us and sent photos every day and some videos of her playing. It made it so we were able to enjoy our vacation without worrying about her. We will definitely use her on the future and highly recommend her!!!”
“Anna was amazing with our dog. She cared for her like she was her own. Kept us updated with multiple photos and videos daily. Couldn’t ask for anything better than that. Would definitely recommend and consider next time I need someone to watch our pup.”
“Amazing is all I can say!! She had great communication and Finney loved his time with her ( not sure he wanted to come home 😂😂). We will definitely be rebooking her in the future”
“Sheena & Adam took great care of our girls! One is energetic and the other is calmed/laid back but they have a large yard and friendly doggies to play with and also a quiet private space to accommodate both personality types. They have the environment our girls need. We appreciated the daily updates as well! Highly recommended!”
“Roger was an excellent communicator, highly flexible and super supportive. We loved his family as well, he had the perfect set up for our puppy . Denys lots of updates and photos . Would absolutely feel comfortable and confident anytime leaving Loki and ugh Roger. Highly, highly recommend Roger and his lovely wife and family .”
“Kristine was wonderful. She was friendly and very attentive to Mina and Kodi. We adopted both dogs the end of September, and I was worried about leaving them so soon because they were both still adjusting, but both dogs took to her almost immediately. She sent me pictures every day and I could see that they were very comfortable. I will definitely use her again and will recommend her to my family and friends.”
“Ren and his family were exceptional caregivers for our very very active puppy. They were thoughtful with everything they did with our dog. They’re wonderfully responsive, professional and clearly have years of experience with dogs. Ren is truly a dog whisperer. Thank you!”
“I booked the stay with Ashleigh the night before. She was very professional and kind. my dog was sleeping the whole way back home and slept more when we were home. He definitely played a lot and enjoyed his stay with Ashleigh, I would definitely recommend her to anyone and will be booking further stays with her when needed. :) Thank you!”
“Mariko was absolutely wonderful! We needed to make last minute arrangements for our mini doxy while we went out of town because she got sick and needed special feeding and medicines around the clock. She took care of our little girl and sent us lots photos and videos everyday to keep us up to date. Her whole family truly loves dogs and was very attentive. Highly recommend!”
“Our dog Princess was well taken care of. They listened to our concerns, our suggestions, and what works best for our dog. Princess came home so happy. We will definitely be taking her back and are thankful to them for treating our dog as one of their own.”
“McKenzie was so great! She cared for our dog so well. Our dog has anxiety and is very timid in new situations and she made him feel right at home. She sends updates and photos every day. Definitely will recommend her and have her dog sit for us again!”
“We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Julie & Dennis! From the very beginning, they were professional, communicative, and genuinely caring. They treated our dog like part of their own family and truly went above and beyond to make sure he felt comfortable and loved. We received regular updates and adorable pictures throughout his stay, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear he wasn’t just being “watched”, he was being spoiled with attention, affection, and thoughtful care. When we picked him up, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. You can tell they truly love animals and take pride in what they do. We are so grateful to have found such kind, trustworthy people and would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for exceptional pet care!”
“We so appreciate the thoughtful updates during Frodo’s stay. I was blown away with how easy our little guy settled in and was comfortable in your home. It set my mind at ease knowing how happy he was and how relaxed he seemed to be. The love and care you provided was amazing!! Thank you so much!”

“Trent took great care of our pet, and made sure to keep the pets area tidy for us! Trent made our first experience a great one with great questions, clear communication and punctuality! We hope we can utilize you again in the near future.”
“My cat Charlee was content and happy when I arrived home after a 5 day vacation. Anna's daily visits made all the difference in keeping my cat feeling safe, secure & loved.”
About: I have extensive hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of pets and animals, as well as working with livestock and poultry through my involvement in FFA. Through this experience, I have developed strong skills in daily animal care, feeding, health monitoring, and maintaining clean, safe environments. What sets me apart is my ability to quickly understand each animal’s unique needs and behaviors, whether it’s a household pet or a farm animal, and provide calm, patient, and attentive care. My background in FFA has taught me responsibility, discipline, and respect for animals, and my genuine passion allows me to build trust with both animals and their owners. Pet care is a regular part of my daily and weekly routine. I’m currently not working, so my schedule is completely open, allowing me to plan around consistent feeding, walks, and attentive care while being fully reliable and flexible for each pet’s needs. I care for pets in my home and my clients’ homes with patience, consistency, and respect for each animal’s routine. I’ve been caring for dogs, cats, birds, and livestock since I was a young child, which has taught me how to read animal behavior, meet individual needs, and provide calm, attentive care. I focus on proper feeding, exercise, cleanliness, and companionship while maintaining the animal’s normal schedule to reduce stress and keep them comfortable and safe.
“Leslie is great! She checks in on my cat when I am out of town. Making sure she gets her meds, food, and a clean litter box. I definitely recommend her to look after your pets!”
“I admit I had separation anxiety leaving my two elder cats due to all the extra attention they received during the pandemic! This was my first trip since end of 2019 and Susan (at the last minute) came to my rescue after a relative had to cancel pet sitting. Susan came on time twice a day, sent pictures daily, and kitties looked happy upon my return. Thank you so much for your time and care. Much appreciated!!”
“Chelsea is amazing and took wonderful care of my two kitties. They are very different cats with unique needs and she was very patient and loving towards them, as well as detail oriented. I can’t emphasize how much I appreciate her approach and care with my cats.”
“I don’t know if you’re able to review a person more than once. But I had Andrhu coming for drop in visits during my long work hours because he lives just a few blocks away. I noticed my cat who is 15 took to him right away and he paid attention to my very *particular* requests about her care. Not only did I have a significant increase in my cats level of calmness - but literally at the LAST minute I saw that the sitter I use when I’m out of town had left my cat alone for almost 24 hours. Then pushed he out of bed when the cat tried to ask for minimal attention. To say I was crushed was an understatement. I was in complete tears. I have a lot going on and am kind of a single pet parent until my husband can join me in the USA. Andrhu AGAIN was a god send. One one days notice I let the other sitter go home for personal reasons and Andrhu agreed to stay - he was with her most all day every day. I came home today, my cat happy, playing with a ball at 15 years old. And now I am comfortable purchasing a kitten to make her (and I) even happier. Knowing I have Andrhu close by - he’s SO flexible. He’s honest and communicates expectations clearly which I appreciate and respect. The amount of guilt I carry about leaving her is at a zero. Down from about 200 on my last vacation. And now with our new addition coming - I consider Andrhu to be part of my cat tribe to make sure they’re all ok. I don’t want him to get completely booked (selfishly). But this is the relationship I needed for my sweet girl until my husband is allowed to live here - and for every vacation after. I highly recommend treating him with utmost respect. I have a guest set of linens, towels and hope Andrhu will help himself to anything food or drink in my home. At this point my home is him home and even if we haven’t met he is cat-family. Hire him whenever you can. The compassion he shows to even old pets it unmatched. I’m almost crying tears of joy from having my anxiety so much reduced in this difficult time in my life.”
About: I currently have two Maltese and have been a devoted dog owner for almost 20 years. One of them was a rescue with an unforgettable personality, which only strengthened my love and appreciation for animals. Dogs hold a special place in my heart, and I treat them with the same care, attention, and affection that I would give to family. I genuinely enjoy meeting and interacting with dogs and often find myself stopping to say hello to a pup and their owner during my day. Whether your dog prefers a leisurely walk or a more energetic run, I am happy to accommodate their needs. Safety is always my top priority, and I believe dogs deserve a walker who is fully attentive and present. When your dog is in my care, they will have my complete focus and attention. Professionally, I am a nurse, a role that has strengthened my sense of responsibility, compassion, and attention to detail. In my personal time, I love running and spending time outdoors. Combining my passion for an active lifestyle with my love of dogs makes this an ideal opportunity for me, and I would be honored to care for your furry family member. I'm currently working part-time and headed back to school. I am open from afternoon through evenings and weekend walks. I can't stand being in the house so you could find me out walking or running often. I might as well pick up your furry friend along the way! I am comfortable taking your friend on a walk, run, or just playing at home. I am only comfortable with letting them out unleashed if it is a fenced in area. On walks, I must have a leash for maximum safety. No running loose, please!
“This is our 2nd time using her and can’t say enough great things about about Katelynne. She is amazing and my fur babies welcome her with open paws as well to looking forward to to her visits. Thank you Katelynne!”
“Katherine is amazing! My fur babies loved her. She sent me pictures and videos of them. My cats didn't have a hard time with the transition. I will always look for her any time I need a sitter for Bella and Koda! She's easy to work with and flexible as well.”
About: I have been around animals my whole life. I grew up with two family dogs for 18 years, and caring for pets has just always come naturally to me. I also foster dogs, cats, and small critters, so I have experience with pets of all personalities, ages, and needs Pet care fits so naturally into my day because I genuinely love having animals around me. My schedule is super flexible. I’m in part-time school and work part-time so I have plenty of time. When pets are in my home, they’re treated like part of the family. I keep a close eye on them at all times making sure they’re safely leashed outside, supervised during playtime, and always comfortable. I follow whatever routines they’re used to, like feeding schedules, crate time, or potty breaks, so they feel calm and at home. There’s always lots of love, attention, and gentle structure to keep them happy and safe. When I’m caring for pets in someone else’s home, respect is everything to me. I treat your space the same way I’d want mine treated clean, careful, and mindful of your rules. Whether I’m staying overnight or just stopping by for a walk, I make sure your pet gets all the care they need while also keeping your home tidy, secure, and exactly how you left it. I’m very routine friendly, so I happily follow your pet’s normal schedule, house rules, and comfort needs.
About: I’ve cared for cats through my own pets as well as for friends and relatives, so I understand how different each one can be. Some are playful and social, while others need space and a calm approach. I’m patient and attentive, and I take the time to understand each cat’s personality so they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for.

“Toby had such a great experience with Dianna. Communication was outstanding from start to finish, and I really appreciated all the videos and photos throughout the day. It made it so easy to feel comfortable and know exactly how he was doing. She kept me updated on everything, including his feeding, potty breaks, and overall activity, which I loved. It’s clear she pays close attention and truly cares about the dogs she’s watching. I’m so happy we found Diahann and feel confident Toby is well taken care of with her. Drop-off and pick-up were smooth and easy, which made the whole process even better. Overall, an excellent experience and I can’t wait to bring Toby back!!”

“Andrhu is so great with our girls! He plays so well with our social dog so that she is worn out and happy when we get home.

I work “full time” but I work around 30 hours and I have a lot of split shifts so time before or after to check-in with the pets. This looks like morning feed, going outside, if any meds or vitamins need to be taken or same with after depending on the time of day needed. Depending on circumstances of boundaries and rules of each pet, I easily find a solution and adapt if needed. I will watch your dog/cat outside or on a leash front or back of yard. If there are off-limit areas inside our outside those will be closed doors or if there’s a gate it will be put up per clients request. If there needs to be check-ins with owner that be applicable, I am attentive to my phone, when and if necessary.

About: Lifelong dog lover with years of hands-on pet care experience. My most recent pet was my Beagle, who I loved and cared for over 12 years. I've also recently helped care for my daughter's 3 dogs while she worked. In addition, I've house sat and provided pet care as a side job, so I'm comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, and giving pets a lot of attention and care. I'd love to treat your pets like family while you're away! My schedule is flexible 7 days a week at the current time, which allows me to be available and attentive to each pet's individual needs and routine. I provide attentive, reliable care for both pets and your home so you can feel confident while you're away. I follow your pet's normal routine closely, including walks, feedings, playtime and any special instructions, while making sure they feel safe, comfortable and well cared for. I will treat your home with the same respect as if it were my own so when you return home, everything is just as you left it.
About: I am the leader of my own pack! I have two dogs and two cats, which is why I limit my services to options that allow me to give your pet(s) my undivided attention.

“Nikkole was a pleasure to work with and to coordinate care for our pups. She was very communicative, kind, and most importantly, patient!! Our dogs can be a handful, but I was definitely at ease knowing they were in good hands with Nikkole. Thank you for everything!”
“Leslie is fantastic!!! We felt so good about leaving our baby with her. Basil has some separation anxiety (so do I) and she was great with both of us and sent photos every day and some videos of her playing. It made it so we were able to enjoy our vacation without worrying about her. We will definitely use her on the future and highly recommend her!!!”
“Anna was amazing with our dog. She cared for her like she was her own. Kept us updated with multiple photos and videos daily. Couldn’t ask for anything better than that. Would definitely recommend and consider next time I need someone to watch our pup.”
“Amazing is all I can say!! She had great communication and Finney loved his time with her ( not sure he wanted to come home 😂😂). We will definitely be rebooking her in the future”
“Sheena & Adam took great care of our girls! One is energetic and the other is calmed/laid back but they have a large yard and friendly doggies to play with and also a quiet private space to accommodate both personality types. They have the environment our girls need. We appreciated the daily updates as well! Highly recommended!”
“Roger was an excellent communicator, highly flexible and super supportive. We loved his family as well, he had the perfect set up for our puppy . Denys lots of updates and photos . Would absolutely feel comfortable and confident anytime leaving Loki and ugh Roger. Highly, highly recommend Roger and his lovely wife and family .”
“Kristine was wonderful. She was friendly and very attentive to Mina and Kodi. We adopted both dogs the end of September, and I was worried about leaving them so soon because they were both still adjusting, but both dogs took to her almost immediately. She sent me pictures every day and I could see that they were very comfortable. I will definitely use her again and will recommend her to my family and friends.”
“Ren and his family were exceptional caregivers for our very very active puppy. They were thoughtful with everything they did with our dog. They’re wonderfully responsive, professional and clearly have years of experience with dogs. Ren is truly a dog whisperer. Thank you!”
“Mariko was absolutely wonderful! We needed to make last minute arrangements for our mini doxy while we went out of town because she got sick and needed special feeding and medicines around the clock. She took care of our little girl and sent us lots photos and videos everyday to keep us up to date. Her whole family truly loves dogs and was very attentive. Highly recommend!”
“Our dog Princess was well taken care of. They listened to our concerns, our suggestions, and what works best for our dog. Princess came home so happy. We will definitely be taking her back and are thankful to them for treating our dog as one of their own.”
“McKenzie was so great! She cared for our dog so well. Our dog has anxiety and is very timid in new situations and she made him feel right at home. She sends updates and photos every day. Definitely will recommend her and have her dog sit for us again!”
“We so appreciate the thoughtful updates during Frodo’s stay. I was blown away with how easy our little guy settled in and was comfortable in your home. It set my mind at ease knowing how happy he was and how relaxed he seemed to be. The love and care you provided was amazing!! Thank you so much!”
“We had such a good experience boarding with Harlie! This was Reyna's first time staying overnight at another place and Harlie did an amazing job making us feel at ease knowing Reyna was well taken care of 😊”
“Amazing all around. Great communication, and provided pictures and updates consistently through our dogs stay. Tiffany and her family really loved watching our dogs. Glad to find a great sitter in the area!”
“Tony and Krista are fantastic sitters. They are genuine and reliable, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them. It’s great to feel free to travel and know that your pet is well cared for.”
“Marlena and her family were loving, caring, and communicative during my dogs stay. They sent lots of photos, handled his food aggression with other dogs perfectly, and even helped with training during his stay! He stayed over the holidays so they let him open his presents as well. They truly love and care for animals and have training and experience to do so. I would highly recommend them!”
“Katie and Mike, you are the best hosts for our pup! Thank you for putting up with his crazy behavior and teenager ways and loving him anyway! We are so blessed to have you guys!”
“This was Aiko’s second time staying with Katherine, and just like the first, it was an outstanding experience. During his first visit, I was impressed by how quickly Aiko felt comfortable in her and her husband Peters home. Their calm, friendly energy really helped him settle in. I knew then that I’d found someone I could trust. On his second visit, Katherine and Peter went above and beyond yet again. From the moment I dropped Aiko off, she kept me in the loop with frequent text messages, photos, and videos of him playing and lounging. It gave me such peace of mind knowing he was happy, safe, and having a great time. Aiko also got to spend lots of time playing with Reuben, Catherine and Peters English bulldog which he absolutely loved. The two of them are became great buddies, and it’s clear Katherine fosters a fun and safe environment where dogs can be social and active. She really understands the needs of energetic breeds like huskies and makes sure they get the playtime and attention they need. Aiko came home happy, relaxed, and completely worn out from all the fun. Katherine is reliable, kind, and truly treats your dog like family. I wouldn't hesitate for a second to book with her again. Thank you so much, Katherine, for taking such great care of my boy!”
“Kirstin was great!! I got great pictures & Kirstin was able to take care of my leash aggressive/defensive dog & my other anxious barky dog! Communication was great & I definitely recommend it!”
