“Barb was wonderful with our Silver Lab, Birdie. From the moment we booked with her, she was an excellent communicator. She kept us updated throughout Birdie's stay with thoughtful text messages and photos, which gave us great peace of mind. When we picked Birdie up at the end of the day, it was clear she had been well cared for. I highly recommend Barb to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter.”
“I boarded my dog Cooper with Katie for two days and nights. Katie was very responsive when I approached her and she sent text and photos of Cooper during his stay with her. She played with him and he looked very happy. She has a great yard for Cooper to play fetch. I would definitely have Katie watch Cooper again.”
“Absolutely AMAZING. Don't hesitate. Nancy was wonderful. Great communication leading up to the visit. Constant pictures while our doggie was in her care. Can't thank them enough for taking great care of our precious Dicker while we were at a 8 hour wedding/reception. Doggie had a blast & was so comfortable with their property. JUST BOOK NOW. COMPLETELY SAFE”
“Homa and Matt took in our dog Angus and treated him as family. They have a 2 year old that chased and played with him like their other dog. Angus did not even notice us leaving. Homa sent pictures every day showing a happy dog so we could relax and enjoy our time away. I highly recommend this beautiful place with a spacious yard and loving environment for any dog.”
“Bethany was amazing! She watched my little Archie for a long weekend and made our getaway more enjoyable by not having to worry about our fur baby! Will definitely be using her again!”
“Could not be happier with the care our dog received! They spend time with them as if he were their own pet. I really think our dog didn't want to come home. He was so happy there. Stayed right inside their home and we received updates everyday which made our trip more enjoyable. We have kenneled him before at places and worried about how he's doing but won't happen anymore as we've found the perfect vacation for him while we're gone.”
About: I have a background in both education and dog training, so I focus heavily on structure, communication, and understanding each dog’s individual needs. I have experience working with dogs of all ages, energy levels, and personalities, including puppies, high-energy breeds, and dogs that benefit from extra patience or routine. I’m CPR certified, experienced with enrichment-based care, and comfortable reinforcing basic training skills such as leash manners, recall, sit/down, place, and calm behavior during visits and walks. I also have experience with hunting and working breeds, so I understand the importance of both physical exercise and mental stimulation. What sets me apart most is that I genuinely enjoy building trust and relationships with the dogs I care for. I prioritize safety, consistency, and making sure each dog feels comfortable, engaged, and well cared for while you’re away. I also provide reliable communication and updates so owners can feel confident their pets are in good hands. I intentionally keep openings in my schedule for walks, drop-in visits, boarding, and individualized care. I currently have availability most mornings, a few evenings, and select weekends which allows me to provide consistent attention and flexible scheduling for clients. Because I prioritize quality care and reliability, I carefully manage my schedule to make sure each pet receives plenty of time, attention, exercise, and communication while in my care. believe every dog is different, so I focus heavily on each pet’s individual needs, personality, comfort level, and routine. Some dogs need lots of exercise and enrichment, while others need a calmer environment, patience, or extra reassurance while their owners are away. When caring for pets in a client’s home or my own, I take time to learn their feeding schedule, potty routine, energy level, favorite activities, training expectations, and anything that helps them feel comfortable and secure. I adjust my care style based on the individual dog rather than taking a “one size fits all” approach. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, understood, and cared for while maintaining as much consistency and routine as possible.
“I had a great experience and my dog loved playing with her dogs! Super friendly people and dogs, easy to communicate with and a great space. If I am back in that area I will definitely try and bring Carlos there again”

“Our little 15-year-old cat has had quite a few care givers in her lifetime and Jaimie is the best of the best. She’s friendly, conscientious, caring, and so, so good with animals (and people 🙂). There’s nothing like leaving town and knowing for certain your little friend is in kind, competent hands! 😻❤️”
“Kelly is awesome! She has a way with animals that puts them at ease. We feel super comfortable with her and will definitely be a repeat customer. Thank you very much Kelly!!”
“Rebecca is a fantastic pet sitter! Her communication with us was exemplary. She sent us a note every morning before she went over to our house, and then more notes and photos as she cared for our two cats. She followed our instructions to a T, and we returned to two happy cats! We definitely will ask her to cat-sit for us again! Thank you, Rebecca!”
About: Bilingual and able to communicate with families in Spanish, as well. Neighbors and friends have trusted me to care for their pets/homes for almost 7 years. They often say we're (my fiance and I) the only ones they trust to care for their pets. I have experience with senior pets and worked at a rescue previously. Excited to be going full time pet sitting/walking in 2026! I'm very reliable, flexible and am available last minute, 7 days a week and on holidays. I take extra care to keep pets happy, safe and comfortable. I follow instructions given and use caution when necessary to prevent any escapes. I do not do boarding in my home.

“Barbara was a great sitter for our dogs first time with a stranger. Barbara had great communication and extremely clean home a large backyard for any dog to run around. She also took our dog on a couple walks and sent update pics and videos. We were confident in her care and hope to bring our dog to her again.”
“Dropped Nelli off for daycare and both Nancy and Dennis greeted us when we pulled in the driveway. Beautiful home and fenced yard. You can tell they were very happy to meet us and Nelli. Nelli was well cared for and pictures and updates were sent, which is always a comfort. Had such a positive experience that we immediately booked again for an overnight.”
“I don’t even know where to begin. Jaimie is an outstanding, compassionate human being with the patience of a goddess. She took on my two 10 month old Black Labs, Duke and Eli like they were her own. She was so welcoming and kind when I got there and this was my boys first stay away from me. They loved her, her husband and their dog. I received almost hourly updates with photos and she didn’t even known but they have GPS collars on and it showed they walked with her, 22,000 steps. They were happy, well fed, loved and exhausted. Jaimie, you are amazing….keep up all the good energy and thank u again. We will be back!”

“Shelby is AWESOME 👍👍👍. Bowie loves walking with her and is soooo excited to see her each time she comes. She is ALWAYS on time and super positive. We are soooo happy we found her 😃”
About: What sets me apart? When your pet is in my care (at my home or your own), I make them my priority from start to finish and treat them like my own. When guest dogs are staying in my home I sleep with them in our spare bedroom (no kenneling at night or during the day unless you request I do so) and if I'm house sitting you can rest assured that I will leave your home and pets as good or better than I found them. I never charge extra for walks, playing fetch, taking them on a car ride, or doing an activity they enjoy. I want your pet to feel like they're on vacation, too :) When I'm house sitting for a client I aim to be there the entire time, and since I work remotely (as long as you have quality wi-fi) I am able to work from your home - this means your pet gets even more time and attention, and if I do have to leave it will only be for a very short period and I will communicate this to you prior. If you do not need/want me there 24/7 we can discuss and adjust price based on what we agree upon during our meet and greet. I aim to be as flexible as possible to meet both your need and your budget... I know this is an investment! I am here because I love the idea of helping other pet-parents know their pets can be taken care of when they are busy or want to enjoy time away with loved ones. I am also here because anyone who knows me knows how much I love animals :) both my own and any animal I meet. I have experience with all sorts of animals and I'm equally as comfortable with both dogs and cats... big and small. I also have experience with tricky behaviors (aggressiveness, food guarding, potty training, learning to walk on a leash, teaching commands, etc.). I can administer medicine, communicate with vet offices effectively, and I am known for providing all of the updates/pictures/videos someone would like while I'm caring for their pet! For awareness, dogs and cats are kept separate in our home. We do this for safety :) There is an underground fence for our dogs and this is an option if your dogs are collar trained. If not, no problem - I am happy to take pets out on a leash. Safety is my top priority, so I will strictly follow the instructions given for your pet(s). When it comes to inside the home, I will closely monitor all play/interactions and if needed, I will separate and/or give primarily 1 on 1 time with your pet if that is what they require. Please note: if you live more than 45 miles from my address I do charge a 1x flat fee of $50.00 while house sitting. Similarly, if you live more than 25 miles from my address I charge a 1x flat fee of $12.00 for dog walking and/or drop-in visits. Thank you for your understanding!
“Kelly was so attentive and made sure to include all the little details about her time with our pet! This was our first time using Rover and Kelly made the experience so wonderful.”
About: I am flexible, loving, and communicative. I’m punctual with schedules, feedings, walking, etc. and I will assure your fur babies have the time of their lives with me! I am often available morning and night, and have no problem commuting to offer help. My ample free time allows me to stop in and check up on your pets multiple times per day if necessary. I love to provide photo updates and texts to pet parents. Although I don't offer in-home care, I foster a loving environment in any client's home and with any pet I take care of. My love for animals is tangible!
