“My dog Cookie was well taken care of. Nikkole listened to my concerns, vet's suggestions, and what works best for my dog, and goes above and beyond! Cookie was so well taken care of in my absence, and he came home so healthy and happy. I will definitely be taking him back and am thankful to her for treating my dog as one of her own.”
“Diahann was the absolute BEST sitter I could have ever dreamed of! She took care of my baby boy as if he was her own. She sent me pictures and videos daily, multiple times a day. I didn't miss any moments while being away on vacation. Her house is very clean and well maintained. She also has little cameras so I never had to worry about Jackson. If he wasn't eating she made sure he was comfortable with his food and also his sleeping arrangements. I can't wait to have Jackson stay with her again. He had the BEST time. Highly recommend, I will not stop raving about Diahann!”
“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!!!”
“Noelle is the BEST! This was the first time I’ve ever used a dog sitter or Rover so I was nervous, until I met Noelle. She was so welcoming and eased all my worries. Ellie is a six month old Cockapoo so I was worried she might become depressed since this was the first time being away from home but with Noelle’s loving care, Ellie had a blast! I wasn’t sure if she would want to come back home. I appreciated Noelle’s daily updates, pictures and videos. I am so thankful that I found Noelle and we’ll definitely be back. Thank you again, Noelle!”
“In Roger wa so wonderful and took such great care of our pup! He was so easy to communicate with, incredibly flexible, and all around amazing! He sent us photos of our pup and gave us updates. Such a kind person and wonderful with pups! We’d absolutely recommend!”
“Ingrid was great with Zoey! We really appreciate all the updates and videos. She was easy to work with, very flexible and accommodating. Will definitely use her again!”
“Dana is wonderful! Our puppy, Hazel has been to doggie daycare care but never an overnight. She spent two nights with Dana and was so well taken care of. We got pictures and updates. She came home happy and tired. We will use Dana again!”
“Katrina and her family were great with dog, Louie. We were in Thailand for two weeks but the pictures and updates that Katrina would send helped us to miss him just a little bit less. They took great care of him and we are already planning our next trip :)”
“Kathie took such incredible care of my shy guy and welcomed him into her home as if he was one of her own. She gave me so many updates about how he was doing through this stay, with plenty of pics and videos!”
“Anna and her husband were absolutely wonderful! They took such amazing care of our puppy, and we felt completely comfortable knowing he was in their hands. They sent us videos throughout his stay so we could see that he was happy and doing well, which gave us such peace of mind. Their home was safe, clean, and welcoming. We couldn’t have asked for better care and would highly recommend them!”
“Kristine was amazing with Boa and was incredible on communication and flexibility. Extremely thankful to find her and I will definitely be using her again and highly recommend her for anyone looking for care for their pets!”
“This is our second time with Sheena and she continues to amaze us with her level of care! This time Koko stayed for two weeks, and I received a message update with photos/videos on Koko's wellbeing at least once a day. Sheena and her family continue to show Koko patience and love with her many quirks and ensures Koko is comfortable as well. I very much recommend trusting Sheena with your dog-sitting needs!”
“Total peace of mind while away! We were instantly relieved when our highly energetic pup immediately took to Keri and Kerry's family, yard and Beau :) This lovely family puts you at ease with their calm demeanor and years of knowledge and experience with dogs (including active puppies). They are exceptionally intuitive with new and old dogs. Our pup was so well exercised, daily, that it allayed our usual concerns of him getting into mischief. Keri and Kerry were always quick to respond and kept us informed daily. Communication was clear and easy. He was so well cared for that we were genuinely and regularly blown away when we received the pics of him laying contentedly, relaxing and getting pets and love from this wonderful family! Their love and ability to quickly identify and address your dog's needs will bring you the peace of mind needed to enjoy your time away. We will book with them from now on! Thank you Keri and Kerry!”
“Katie was amazing to work with! She and her family took such good care of our dog, we received lots of updates and pictures of her throughout her time there. Highly recommend and we'll 100% be using her going forward!”
“Harlie took great care of Ranger! He’s very anxious and I was nervous about leaving but she sent me updates and helped him adjust. He had a lot of fun! We will be using her services in the future!”
“This was our 2nd time booking with Esther and my dog does well here. He can be an anxious guy so it’s nice to find someone who is patient and understands. Would definitely use Esther again.”

“Ellyse made us feel so comfortable during our time away from our kitties! Her check-ins were informative and the pictures were really cute and fun, you could tell they were being well cared for. During the meet and greet she was attentive and knowledgeable about cat behavior and care. We will definitely request her for future bookings!”
“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: Hi, my name is Hailey and I’m 28 years old. I am currently going to nursing school full time and I am trying to make some extra money on the side to support my family. My husband and I have had our one dog(Kota, female) for 6 years now and another dog(Ash, male) for 4 years. I also have 2 outdoor barn kitties and 8 chickens. I love to homestead, grow my own veggies and read in my spare time. We have had our dog Kota(English-setter, 11 years old) since she was a puppy and my husband and I decided to adopt Ash(boxer, 6 years old) when he was only 1 year old. He was labeled free and the previous owner could not take care of him, plus he was not trained. He had never experienced grass before so when we first got him his paws would bleed and I got the opportunity to help heal him and hone in to correct his bad behavior skills. I would dedicate 1 hour in the morning and 1 hour at night to train him for a year before he started to trust me and we developed a wonderful relationship like we have with our Kota. I love all of our animal immensely and I believe that animals are not some inanimate object you have but a true companion in your life that deserves to be treated like family. I would love to care for your pet and I can provide some training while doing so in a positive reward environment. I do not believe in animal abuse or keeping animals without having dedication in creating a relationship. Thank you for taking the time to look at my profile, I look forward to working with you. I have school in the mornings during the week and I have study time after that. I can work with your pet most likely afternoons and weekends as long as I’m not busy that weekend. I am flexible, it just depends on the requested times. I believe in reward training and care. I have worked with my own dogs through kennel training and rewarding good behavior. Abuse is not a form of training in my mind, I believe any animal can be trained as long as you put the time and effort into them. Doing this creates a stable and loving relationship between you and that animal.
“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!”
About: I have my own 1.5yr old husky/blue heeler, he's my best bud. Before him I adopted a senior lab & loved her through her end of life care. I grew up with multiple dogs & had one other long term dog best friend in early adulthood. I'm currently a stay at home mom with one at home & one in grade school. Have plenty of time to walk, drop in or even dog sit. I will care for your pets with love & follow any instructions given. At my home I have a fully fenced yard & my own dog that is dog friendly.
“Jazmyne was fantastic! I booked her to check in on my four cats for a couple days and am happy I did. She was kind, communicative, willing to take on the challenge of feeding my monsters wet food (they are spoiled and will only eat their food if I prepare it a certain way), spent time playing with them, and left my home nice and tidy. Additionally, she was able to make my grumpy Siamese comfortable enough to run on his cat wheel! I will 100% be booking with her from now on.”
“Scout was alive, and the house was not in tatters when I got home! Who could ask for more?!? Seriously, I am satisfied with the care Scout received while I was gone. I just need to know how I get my house key back? Thanks!”
“Taylor is a wonderful and dedicated sitter. She kept us informed each day on how our two kitties, Bella and Rudy, we doing. Sent us photos and videos which we truly appreciated. We highly recommend Taylor.”
About: I have about an acre of land for your pups to run and play! Fully fenced yard (multiple) so they are always contained. I'd love to watch your fur babies whether it's for the day while you're at work or for extended time while you're away! I have always been around dogs and other animals including cats, bird and small critters. Growing up we always had at least 3 big dogs. I now have my own pup who is also a large dog. I previously worked for a vet clinic as a veterinarian assistant for about 2.5 years and have also worked as a pet goomer. So overall I have about 10 years of personal and professional experience walking, feeding, bathing and caring for dogs and other animals! I am also K-9 CPR certified! Drop ins for caged animals and cats only. I have reptile experience (we own a chameleon and iguana ourselves). I work from home 3-4 days out of the week depending on the week. When I am at work my husband is home so your pups will almost never be home alone. 🤗 If you choose to board with me or have your pet attend daycare, I own a home that is on about an acre of land and has 3 separate fully fenced yards for them to safely roam and play. If you have hired me for doggie walks, I am very aware of my surroundings in order to keep your pup and myself safe during outings. I am also aware of things that are toxic to dogs and things that could hurt them and do everything I am able to keep your dog safe and healthy.

Your attention to detail and genuine affection for our dog truly shine through. If you are searching for someone who will treat your pet with the same love and dedication, look no further than Anna. She goes above and beyond to ensure every furry friend receives the best possible care!”
“When my older Corgi and I were busy for several days, Odalys's daycare was the perfect for my younger Corgi! Easy drop off and pick up, great communication, and Knox came home happy and tired! It was great for him to be able to get out and move during the day and to get a chance to play!”
“Thank you Lord for guiding us to Diahann for her services. You knew how fearful we were to leave our sweet pea in the hands of others to watch while we are away. The comfort sweet pea displays with her brings comfort to our hearts as well. We are extremely grateful and blessed to have Diahann and her husband in our lives and look forward to future travels knowing sweet pea will be taken care of. Joseph and Julie Warner”

“Jessica was amazing and took such great care of my doxie Frankie for last-minute daycare while I was in town for a wedding ☺️ she sent lots of lovely photos and videos of Frankie and her own doxies playing together throughout the day... absolutely melted my heart. Will definitely be back!”
About: I have been taking care of dogs almost every week on the weekends along with sitting for my neighborhood dogs, cats, birds and guinea pigs while they are on vacation or away from their home. I am comfortable feeding dogs, interacting with them and I love to give lots of love. I am familiar with giving medication’s to dogs if needed. Your animal will be in good hands as I will love them as my own. Whatever an owner needs for them and their dogs to be well cared for, I can accommodate. I work from home, so the dog will always be accompanied with me. we’ll have plenty of playtime, outside time and potty breaks.

About: My genuine love for animals and a diverse range of hands-on learning experiences has made me into a well-rounded individual to care for your pup! I've spent my entire life alongside dogs, both big and small, and have always considered them as family members. I've been fortunate enough to be involved in the upbringing of multiple litters of puppies, which helped me understand the level of dedication required to ensure their healthy development. Volunteering at an animal shelter exposed me to a wide range of animal personalities and needs. It gave me valuable insights into the importance of patience, compassion, and adaptability when caring for pets, especially those in transitional or challenging situations. During this time, I administered medication and assisted with vaccines as well. I also have a history of caring for high-maintenance breeds which honed my abilities in grooming, nutrition, exercise, and healthcare tailored to their specific requirements. I am currently studying from home full time while also occasionally accepting shifts as a substitute teacher at a local elementary school. This offers considerable flexibility in my schedule for pet care services for your pup! This means that I can easily adjust my daily routine to cater to the specific requirements of your furry companion. Whether your pup needs a jog through the park, some companionship while you're away, or even a bit of extra TLC, my schedule is designed to be adaptable and responsive to your pet's well-being. I provide customized care routines, taking the time to understand your pet's specific needs and routines within your home. Whether it's feeding, exercise, or playtime, I tailor my care to match what your pet is accustomed to. This ensures a smooth transition while you're away. Being an active individual, my goal is to keep pets mentally and physically stimulated, and I adapt activities to suit each pet's unique needs and energy levels. Whether it's fetch, tug-of-war, or simply cuddling on the couch, I'm flexible and adapt to their preferences. Communication is paramount to me. I maintain open lines of contact with pet owners, providing regular updates and photos to keep them informed and reassured. In addition to attentive care, I prioritize cleanliness and organization. I take care of household tasks related to your pet's care and keeping their living area well-maintained. I will also accommodate special requests or specific care routines. Whether it's senior pet care, administering medications, or any other specific needs, I am committed to meeting them. Your pet's well-being is my top priority, and I'm here to ensure they are comfortable, happy, and healthy during your absence.

About: Hi! I’m Jen — a lifelong animal lover with over 4 years of hands-on experience working at an animal shelter, plus many additional months caring for dogs and other animals on a small farm property. If there’s one thing I truly understand, it’s dogs. Especially the shy, anxious, and misunderstood ones. They hold a very special place in my heart! There is no greater feeling than earning the trust of a dog who needs a little extra patience and understanding. At the shelter I worked with every type of dog imaginable, from easygoing family pups to dogs with more complex needs due to past trauma. I was trusted to walk and handle even the more anxious or sensitive dogs, helping them build confidence and learn to trust new people. I’m very comfortable reading dog body language and adjusting my approach so each dog feels safe, respected, and understood. One of the dogs I worked closely with, Donald, needed a trusted handler present while new volunteers learned how to walk him safely, and I helped train others so he could get the exercise and enrichment he deserved. I also helped start enrichment initiatives at the shelter, including treat puzzles, mental stimulation games, and a “dog play buddy” program to give the dogs additional socialization and activity. One of my most special experiences there was helping care for a mama dog who gave birth to a litter of 10 (10!) puppies. I helped care for and socialize those puppies as they grew until they were ready for their forever homes. I also have experience caring for senior animals and understand that older pets often need a little extra patience, gentleness, and attention to their comfort and routine. Beyond dogs, I also have experience caring for cats and bunnies. Over the past few months I’ve helped care for my landlady’s 1yo kitty, and I’m very comfortable providing drop-in care and pet sitting for cats and small animals as well. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting/boarding and I treat every animal like they’re my own. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality, comfort level, and body language so they feel safe and relaxed while their owner is away. I’m always happy to send updates and photos so you know your pet is happy and well cared for. My goal is simple: every animal I care for should feel safe, so very loved, and understood. Pet care is my primary focus, so my daily routine is built around providing consistent, hands-on care. I structure my day to include regular potty breaks, feeding schedules, exercise, enrichment, and downtime, depending on each pet’s needs. I’m home for the majority of the day, which allows me to provide a high level of supervision and attention. Pets are rarely left alone for extended periods, and I’m able to adjust my schedule to support different energy levels, routines, and personalities. Whether a dog needs more activity and engagement or a calm, low-stress environment, I’m able to tailor my day to ensure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for. I care for every pet based on who they are — not just a one-size-fits-all routine. I pay close attention to body language, energy levels, and comfort cues so pets feel safe, respected, and genuinely cared for. In my home, dogs stay on a fully fenced 10-acre farm property where they can safely explore, play, and decompress. All outdoor time is supervised, and I’m intentional about creating a balanced environment — active play for dogs who love it, and plenty of quiet downtime for those who don’t. I have a friendly Mini Goldendoodle and a very mellow senior pup in the home, and I take introductions slowly and thoughtfully. I’m always prepared to separate or crate dogs if needed to keep everyone comfortable and safe. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I stick closely to your routines and preferences so your pet experiences as little disruption as possible. I keep things calm, consistent, and predictable, which is especially important for anxious or sensitive animals. I’m very comfortable with a wide range of personalities, including dogs who need a little extra patience or structure, and I pride myself on creating an environment where pets can relax and just be themselves.
“Shyanne, agreed to walk Aithusa the night before after another walker canceled due to illness. She sent pictures and route of thier walk and communicated when needing to adjust the time of one of his walks. Aithusa was happy when I returned home from work. I think thier walks helped him not miss his mom, who's away.”
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 worked at an animal hospital. I've worked at animal rescues. I love pets all animals. They are what makes life worth living. I take care of animals as if they were my own children. I watch my own pets daily. If I were to watch your pet they would be well taken care of and make sure thier needs are met. For boarding at my home I have a huge space/room for your pet to stay. I have a fully fenced yard in back/front. Enough room for running around and playing. A separate room space indoor huge. Although our pets are friendly I would never have our pets around your dog while staying. They will be separated and taken out in the yard separately. For boarding at your home I would do anything your pet wanted run/walk/play/feed. I just have a baby so I can't stay the night. But I would visit morning and night. If I am able to book your pet I would make sure their needs are met and taken care of first and foremost. I would feed, play, and cuddle. In my home your pet would have a spacious environment. We have a big space for the pet to have their own room and privacy. We have a fully fenced yard for roaming and running. Your pet would be absolutely happy here. If I were to sit at your home I would make sure the pet is comfortable. I would obviously feed them to your preferences. I would take them in the back yard or walk. Overall I would make it feel like the owner never left as much as I could
About: I’ve always had a soft spot for animals since I was little. I have one myself 🐾 & I love her so so much!! She’s a 4 yr old Pom 🤍 I work part-time. Available weekends anytime :) I can make an exception during the weekday in the afternoon. I love to help you with your baby! I have friendly little Pom who loves to meet new friends. & a family who loves animals as well! Pets are like family too! Xoxo
About: I raised my chocolate lab. Potty, crate, and obedience trained. I have dog sat in my home town 4 dogs at once in a tiny home, that takes skill. I’ve taken care of all size of pups, and every age. At the moment I am laid off as a teacher so my days are free. I mostly am open on the weekdays, but some weekends I can make work ! I have a large fully fenced yard. Lots of room to walk or run depending on your dogs energy level. I have kennel availability and extra leashes for walks.
About: I have been working with/training dogs & training horses for over 20 years now. Working with animals is always something that has come natural to me & I can't imagine doing anything else. I currently have the most amazing 2 year old Belgium Malinois/GSD. (River) She has taught me so much about life this last year. She's made me a better trainer & continues to push & challenge me to learn more each day. I also have a 1 year old male Cane Corso (Mountain). I've known him since birth & River has been helping me raise him since he was 9 weeks old. He's been the perfect addition to our pack. I started training dogs when I was 13 & I realized I had a natural gift for it. My neighbors growing up would ask me to watch their dog or walk their dogs & I even trained a few of my neighbors dogs. Which is the first time I began to realize this was something I was not only good at but that I LOVED to do. I spent years studying & learning about how dogs learn, behave & interact with each other. I wanted to understand them more. (Their pack instincts & such) All of this research has helped me understand how to teach many different kinds of dogs in all kinds of areas. Training dogs is what I do for a living right now & i work with my own dogs every day and keep them well trained, behaved and ready for any dog friends to come visit. I'm available pretty much 7 days a week. (Give or take) Caring for pets is just something I've always done & I can't imagine myself doing anything else. I have a HUGE fully fenced in back yard. I have an 12 year old amazing boxer/lab who helped train & teach my Malinois how to be a good canine citizen & now they are both continuing to teach my Corso how to be a canine gentleman. So now I have some amazing dogs who do a really good job of welcoming any dog into their home and making them feel right at home.
About: With years of experience in dog care including breeding and pet sitting many different breeds such as; Labs, Pit bulls, German Shepards, Dachshunds, and Corgis for our friends and family, I have developed a deep understanding of differentiating canine needs. Above all, I believe in patience and consistency, ensuring that each dog feels cared for whether they’re with me for a short period or a long stay. I only work 3 days a week and have a very flexible schedule which would make it easy for me to care for other dogs. I also have a very helpful partner I live with who also loves animals. I have a fully fenced yard with two very friendly corgis. Our spacious yard provides plenty of room for dogs to run, play, and explore safely. We have a doggy door so they have easy access to get in and out. We live in a very safe neighborhood with lots of pet friendly trails.

“My dog Cookie was well taken care of. Nikkole listened to my concerns, vet's suggestions, and what works best for my dog, and goes above and beyond! Cookie was so well taken care of in my absence, and he came home so healthy and happy. I will definitely be taking him back and am thankful to her for treating my dog as one of her own.”
“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!!!”
“Noelle is the BEST! This was the first time I’ve ever used a dog sitter or Rover so I was nervous, until I met Noelle. She was so welcoming and eased all my worries. Ellie is a six month old Cockapoo so I was worried she might become depressed since this was the first time being away from home but with Noelle’s loving care, Ellie had a blast! I wasn’t sure if she would want to come back home. I appreciated Noelle’s daily updates, pictures and videos. I am so thankful that I found Noelle and we’ll definitely be back. Thank you again, Noelle!”

We couldn’t have asked for better care and would highly recommend them!”
“Kristine was amazing with Boa and was incredible on communication and flexibility. Extremely thankful to find her and I will definitely be using her again and highly recommend her for anyone looking for care for their pets!”
“This is our second time with Sheena and she continues to amaze us with her level of care! This time Koko stayed for two weeks, and I received a message update with photos/videos on Koko's wellbeing at least once a day. Sheena and her family continue to show Koko patience and love with her many quirks and ensures Koko is comfortable as well. I very much recommend trusting Sheena with your dog-sitting needs!”
“Total peace of mind while away! We were instantly relieved when our highly energetic pup immediately took to Keri and Kerry's family, yard and Beau :) This lovely family puts you at ease with their calm demeanor and years of knowledge and experience with dogs (including active puppies). They are exceptionally intuitive with new and old dogs. Our pup was so well exercised, daily, that it allayed our usual concerns of him getting into mischief. Keri and Kerry were always quick to respond and kept us informed daily. Communication was clear and easy. He was so well cared for that we were genuinely and regularly blown away when we received the pics of him laying contentedly, relaxing and getting pets and love from this wonderful family! Their love and ability to quickly identify and address your dog's needs will bring you the peace of mind needed to enjoy your time away. We will book with them from now on! Thank you Keri and Kerry!”

“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!”
“Sally was Amazing! She kept us informed with photos of Gracie a few times daily. We didn’t arrive until around 9 pm to pick her up and saw Sally giving her a walk. This was our first time using a pet sitter, so we were very nervous, but Sally exceeding our every expectation. I highly recommend Sally!”
