“This is the second time Wolfie stayed with Kim while we visited Great Wolf Lodge. Although he is nervous and doesn't like strangers, he had an easy time warming up to Kim. She sent us many updates of them going on walks, enjoying her outdoor area, and (his lap dog favorite) keeping close while she worked. When he wouldn't eat his usual dog food, she prepared him special food (with our blessing). We always knew he was in excellent hands and will be back for another visit if we head to Great Wolf Lodge or Great America!”

“Byron and his family were excellent hosts and did a wonderful job keeping Gilbert happy. From the minute I dropped Gilbert off, I knew he would be in good hands. I was kept updated throughout the week with pics and texts, and he answered any questions I had promptly and with assurance. I will definitely have Gilbert board with Byron the next time I need to, and would recommend him as a top sitter.”

“We had a wonderful experience with Kim and family taking care of Ben for the weekend. Kim sent photos and updates that put our minds at ease that all was going good. I will definitely recommend Kim for the care of your dog!”


“My baby boi loves going to see Tony's family and has been several times. What I love is that Thompson gets excited when we pull up as he wants to go play with his friends. I'll continue to rebook and only great things to say!”

“This was our first time leaving our two dogs with Jacob and Murphy and we couldn’t be happier! Jacob’s communication is always super fast and the photos he sent daily are hilarious. They even got to attend a dog birthday party while they were there, so they were able to make lots of new people friends and dog friends that afternoon. It gave us great peace of mind to know they were happy and safe and living their best lives while we were on vacation. A++ Thank you Jacob!!”


“Deanne was awesome! We were initially concerned about leaving our fur baby for 3 weeks with someone we didn't know, but we had a "meet and greet" ahead of time and Deanne and her family put all of our worries at ease. Deanne treated Bazooka like one of her own family. She sent us updates, with pictures and kept us in the loop with how Bazooka was doing. Having Deanne take care of Bazooka made it so we could enjoy our vacation without having to worry about her. When we picked Bazooka up she was happy to see us, but it was obvious she had such a good time. If I could give more than 5 stars I would, it was a good and safe environment, Deanne communicated well, and we will definitely be having Bazooka stay with Deanne again!”


“Alicia was the best! I knew from our meet and greet that she was going to be great with Tig and of course she was. I had no worries while we were out of town as she sent updates and photos of our Tig often. I can tell he is going to miss his new hangout and all their love & cuddles. I will absolutely book again if I need to in the future.”

“Megan was very welcoming and accommodated some last-minute travel plans and made Copper feel right at home. He also got along well with her three pups. He enjoyed having a fenced in backyard where he could run around and play. Thank you!”

“We had a great experience with Norma. She is very capable and flexible. She was able to give me piece of kind while she cared for our large dog. She did a great job sending updates, photos and videos. I would highly recommend Norma and will have her watch my dog again.”

“Heather was absolutely amazing with our dog, Arlo, while we were out of state for a funeral. Leaving him was incredibly difficult for us because we had never left him before, but Heather gave us peace of mind from the very beginning. She reassured us many times before and during our trip, which meant so much during such a hard time. She sent multiple pictures every single day along with detailed updates, and it was clear Arlo was being treated like part of the family. Heather and her family took such wonderful care of him, and we could truly see how loved and comfortable he was while we were away. We honestly could not have asked for a better experience. Heather made a painful and stressful time so much easier for us, and we are beyond grateful we found her. We would give her 10 stars if we could and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and compassionate to watch their pet.”


“Elvis was in great hands with Stella. He got along great with her dogs. I was never worried about him while on vacation. He had a brown 3 legged squeaky toy that was lost at the house. He must have had fun playing with it with the other dogs. No problem, he can get it back next time Elvis stays. I would highly suggest others to consider Stella. Great family and dog lovers. Thanks so much…”

“If you want your pet to feel like they are home - this is it. Can't say enaugh good things about Melissa. Not only she rescued me with last moment stay but gave my dog most amazing care!”

“My pet had spent the fantastic days in her house because I felt he didn’t want to go back home with me. I appreciated about what I could get good travel due to her care.”

“Sunshine and her family were perfect! They made my dog, Fitz, part of the gang and he seemed super happy there. She kept me updated with pictures of her kids loving my little old man dog and was very responsive and super easy and flexible to arrange drop off and pick up. Thank you so much! I appreciate you loving my little guy like family.”


“Angela and Dave take great care of our sweet Ivy whenever we go out of town. It's a huge relief knowing that she is having fun in a home environment filled with fun and love 😊”

“She took such good care of my puppy, she was in constant communication and sent pictures almost daily. She super spoiled my baby and he had a blast the whole time! She even went above and beyond and took him to be groomed at her shop.”


“Elizabeth was amazing with our Chesapeake! We appreciated her communication, pictures, and videos while we were away. I feel lucky to have found her and would definitely recommend her!”

“Absolutely awesome! They obviously love animals. My girls had a wonderful time visiting Francine and Bob. This was the first time I left them at a sitter’s house. They sent photos of my girls having fun. That put my mind at ease. I definitely will use them again!”

“Thanks to Rusty, I was at ease traveling for a few days with the dogs in his care. Rusty has a dog-friendly space indoors and out and was attentive to the dogs’ individual personality traits and needs. This was the first time I’ve left them with a sitter and both dogs responded well and appeared comfortable. It’s a huge relief to know that Rusty is available to care for my dogs if I need to be away.”

“Linnea took fantastic care of my cat while we were out of town a couple of days. She was not afraid to ask questions if I had forgotten to mention something and communicated quickly.”

“Norma was wonderful and did a great jobs with my two cats. Kept me posted how they are doing and made feel good knowing they were in good hands. I will definitely use her again in the future to help with my 2 cats. I highly recommend her.”

“Declan is an extremely friendly and reliable sitter! He's great with our new kittens and has been very gracious working with us on short notice with our relatively erratic schedule. Would recommend to anyone in need of a sitter!”

“We are very happy that we had Kayla care for our cat when we were away. We enjoyed her daily reports and could tell that she enjoyed interacting with our cat. We would book her again.”


“Hope took such great care of our two cats while we were away for two weeks. We loved receiving the photo updates and it gave us peace of mind to know that our little ones were in good hands.”

“Brianna took amazing care of my 3 kitties. They absolutely loved her. Her communication was excellent and my cats barely noticed I was even gone. She did the cutest arts and crafts projects with them, brushed them, took out the trash and left my place spotless (other than the amazing arts and crafts I came home to.) All of my instructions were followed perfectly, she never left any trash behind, and brought so many treats and toys for the kitties! She came to meet the kitties ahead of time and bonded with them so fast. I would trust Brianna with my cats in a heartbeat and I don’t even trust my parents with them.”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was probably around ten years old. Making sure they are fed, played with, and petted are all ways to show them they are pampered and loved, and that’s something I strive to do! I work a part time job, but I can always do my best to make my schedule flexible. The only unchanging thing I have is going to the gym for about an hour, but I will always come right back! My service is completely up to you! If your furry friend needs to go in the kennel for a little bit, I can do that. If he or she needs to be walked for an hour every day, I can absolutely do that as well. Once again, my service ends wherever you need it to!
“I read reviews for Haley before we booked our visit and they all seemed to be sparkling, as were her Visits with our two cats. She represents your company very well and is well-spoken, professional and w we’ll be very happy to ask for Haley in the future. 👍💕”

About: I’m an 18-year-old pet sitter who has grown up caring for animals my entire life, including fish, hamsters, cats, and dogs. I’ve independently managed feeding, cleaning, exercise, and overall care for my pets while balancing school, athletics, and work. Through this experience, I’ve learned to be responsible, attentive, and patient, always making sure animals are safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I treat every pet with the same care and respect I give my own. I’ve taken care of my neighbors dog during the day or throughout the night, watched my grandparents cats and dogs by stopping by periodically, and brought my friends dog to the groomer and vet. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I’ve grown up caring for animals my whole life. On a daily basis, I make time for feeding, fresh water, cleaning, playtime, and monitoring each pet’s behavior and health. Weekly routines include deeper cleaning, grooming, and making sure pets get consistent exercise and attention. I manage this around school and athletics. I care for pets by following a consistent routine that meets each animal’s individual needs, whether in my home or a client’s home. I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water at all times, and receive plenty of attention, playtime, and exercise. I carefully follow any instructions provided, including dietary needs, medication, or specific routines, to keep pets comfortable and stress-free. This is just the same as I do at home everyday for my own pets!😊
“Sara is wonderful! We have 3 dogs and 2 of them are puppies. Sara came over for a meet and greet with the girls and they bonded with her right away. She was so sweet to them and got right on the ground to have them check her out and let them know she was there for them. Sara comes daily and her willingness to be flexible if we need additional visits is above and beyond. We highly recommend Sara and would have no problem with her taking care of our dogs while we are out of town as well. Very trustworthy. Thanks Sara for coming into our lives and taking care of our fur babies!”

About: I have 3 cats myself. I love cats and dogs and do not have a preference of which pet I take care of as I am experienced with both! I love playtime, take care of all of my pets on my own. Changing litter, feeding and fresh water, caring for shy/anxious cats, senior cats, playtime etc.
About: I have been a Petco certified dog trainer since I was 18 and have dog/house sat many times since! I treat your dog like family and your home with respect! I am flexible! I am available Mondays and Thursdays all day. Saturdays I get off work at 2:00pm I work 9-5 during the rest of the days of the week. But I always need an excuse to use PTO so watching your fur baby won’t be problem! I just need a two week notice Quality time will be spent with your fur baby to make sure they keep busy. Plenty of playtime and mental stimulation. I love using puzzle toys, snuffles and other things to get a dogs mind working!
About: I have owned and cared for animals my entire life, I can't get enough ❤️ I have been a foster mom for 3 different rescues over the past 10 years, helping many different dogs prepare for their adoptions and transition to their new homes. I have experience with different ages, health conditions and personalities. I am very observant and patient, I err on the side of caution as you can never be too safe! Dog sitting is my full time job, so I am able to tend to your pup(s) consistently and provide a clean and safe home environment. Stays are limited to just 4 few spots, in my quiet, spacious home. Pups have unlimited access to my huge fenced in yard, with plenty of new smells and places to explore! I do not crate them unless it is necessary for meal times, rest, etc. They will be treated like family while they are here, with social time as well as one on one attention. If your pup matches with the group, they will have lots of play time to burn off their excess energy too! I will also send pictures and videos, as much as your heart desires, so you can be at ease that your dog is happy while you are away! My business is also privately insured.

About: I'm an energetic person who enjoys being with dogs. I pay close attention to detail and I am always willing to engage in activities to keep your dog busy but I also know dogs need some down time as well. I stay at home full-time so I will be able to provide plenty of potty breaks and play time in the backyard. I am currently a dog daddy to a Chihuahua named Lucy. She'll be 1 years old on November 1st. She's very loving and friendly dog. I have 7 years of experience. I don't mind taking your dogs or puppies out for walks instead of just staying in the backyard. I will take good care of your beloved pets as if they were my very own.
“Megan was great with my dog! She sent lots of pictures and I could tell my dog was having the best time ever. Megan was an excellent communicator and so easy to work with. I will book with again and recommend others do as well.”

“Cassandra is awesome. We are visiting and had no idea what to do with Gordo since we were afraid to leave him in the hotel alone and wanted to make a cubs game. We contacted on short notice but Cassandra responded quickly and took great care of our fur baby.”

“Ashley and her family are amazing. She keeps me informed with how the day is going and is very welcoming. She is so flexible and willing to follow your dog’s schedule. She sends pictures daily which is awesome to see. When I drop Willis off at her house, he is so excited when she opens the door and loves to see her. I am so glad we found her and will continue to use her as long as we need puppy care. Thanks for everything you have done and are doing!!!! <3”


About: My husband I both grew up with golden retrievers and have a soft spot for them. When I was first out on my own and bought my first home, I rescued a pit bull and she was with me until she passed. My husband, sons and I are all dog lovers and would love to welcome your dog into our home. My husband is home full time and I work from home and we are anxious to care for your pet! We have 2 sons - ages 6 and 10, so kid-friendly dogs are a must. We are available any day of the week at any time, unless we have something specific planned (which is not often). Please feel free to ask about specific dates and times and I will be sure to add you to my calendar! My husband is home full time and I work from home so we have ample amounts of time to care for your pet. My 2 sons LOVE dogs and love to play and take dogs on walks. Our yard is unfenced, per our HOA rules so your pet will always be on a leash for potty breaks and walks around the neighborhood. Pets are free to explore the entire home and will not be crated or gated, unless a crate is provided and requested.

“Teresa and her husband were incredibly accommodating when it came down to my last minute schedule. My dog had a blast with all of theirs, and promptly fell asleep a minute after getting into the truck to go home. I was kept up to date with pics and videos throughout her time there to let me know she was ok and having a great time. I'll absolutely be using them again to care for my dog, they were absolutely terrific.”

“This was our first visit with Deanne. Doggy Daycare was a hit! Cash was happy when I picked him up. He was sound asleep on the couch within a 1/2 of getting home. I think he had a busy day with his new lil buddy!”

“Tom looked after my little pup snooper for a few hours and snooper was calm and happy when I picked him up. I appreciate how prepared they are.. it really conveys another level of care for our pups. We have been there a couple times when in town, and I appreciated their flexibility because I didn’t know how long I would be away. Definitely recommend. Thanks Tom (and debbie)”

“Gwendolyn went above and beyond to help us in a bind with our best boy!

“I went on a last minute trip for my birthday and saw Elizabeths great reviews. I was gone for 5 days and not once did I have to ask Elizabeth if she walked Harlei my 5 lb precious Yorkie. This was my first time using Rover let alone having a stranger in my apartment or even giving someone my keys! I was very nervous but after meeting Elizabeth she even offered to kindly let me use her key box! Everyday she updated me with the cutest pictures and even went above and beyond my expectations of caring for my dog as her own. She even changed her pee pads and fed her and was very accommodating to the dogs needs. It was suppose to rain and she still found time to walk her for at least 35 minutes and sometimes even 50 when I don't even walk my dog that long! She's the best and I can't recommend her more to anyone! Definitely will book her again in the near future.”

“Byron and his family were excellent hosts and did a wonderful job keeping Gilbert happy. From the minute I dropped Gilbert off, I knew he would be in good hands. I was kept updated throughout the week with pics and texts, and he answered any questions I had promptly and with assurance. I will definitely have Gilbert board with Byron the next time I need to, and would recommend him as a top sitter.”

“We had a wonderful experience with Kim and family taking care of Ben for the weekend. Kim sent photos and updates that put our minds at ease that all was going good. I will definitely recommend Kim for the care of your dog!”


“My baby boi loves going to see Tony's family and has been several times. What I love is that Thompson gets excited when we pull up as he wants to go play with his friends. I'll continue to rebook and only great things to say!”


“Deanne was awesome! We were initially concerned about leaving our fur baby for 3 weeks with someone we didn't know, but we had a "meet and greet" ahead of time and Deanne and her family put all of our worries at ease. Deanne treated Bazooka like one of her own family. She sent us updates, with pictures and kept us in the loop with how Bazooka was doing. Having Deanne take care of Bazooka made it so we could enjoy our vacation without having to worry about her. When we picked Bazooka up she was happy to see us, but it was obvious she had such a good time. If I could give more than 5 stars I would, it was a good and safe environment, Deanne communicated well, and we will definitely be having Bazooka stay with Deanne again!”


“Alicia was the best! I knew from our meet and greet that she was going to be great with Tig and of course she was. I had no worries while we were out of town as she sent updates and photos of our Tig often. I can tell he is going to miss his new hangout and all their love & cuddles. I will absolutely book again if I need to in the future.”

“Megan was very welcoming and accommodated some last-minute travel plans and made Copper feel right at home. He also got along well with her three pups. He enjoyed having a fenced in backyard where he could run around and play. Thank you!”

“We had a great experience with Norma. She is very capable and flexible. She was able to give me piece of kind while she cared for our large dog. She did a great job sending updates, photos and videos. I would highly recommend Norma and will have her watch my dog again.”

“Heather was absolutely amazing with our dog, Arlo, while we were out of state for a funeral. Leaving him was incredibly difficult for us because we had never left him before, but Heather gave us peace of mind from the very beginning. She reassured us many times before and during our trip, which meant so much during such a hard time. She sent multiple pictures every single day along with detailed updates, and it was clear Arlo was being treated like part of the family. Heather and her family took such wonderful care of him, and we could truly see how loved and comfortable he was while we were away. We honestly could not have asked for a better experience. Heather made a painful and stressful time so much easier for us, and we are beyond grateful we found her. We would give her 10 stars if we could and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and compassionate to watch their pet.”


“Elvis was in great hands with Stella. He got along great with her dogs. I was never worried about him while on vacation. He had a brown 3 legged squeaky toy that was lost at the house. He must have had fun playing with it with the other dogs. No problem, he can get it back next time Elvis stays. I would highly suggest others to consider Stella. Great family and dog lovers. Thanks so much…”

“If you want your pet to feel like they are home - this is it. Can't say enaugh good things about Melissa. Not only she rescued me with last moment stay but gave my dog most amazing care!”

“Sunshine and her family were perfect! They made my dog, Fitz, part of the gang and he seemed super happy there. She kept me updated with pictures of her kids loving my little old man dog and was very responsive and super easy and flexible to arrange drop off and pick up. Thank you so much! I appreciate you loving my little guy like family.”


“Angela and Dave take great care of our sweet Ivy whenever we go out of town. It's a huge relief knowing that she is having fun in a home environment filled with fun and love 😊”

“She took such good care of my puppy, she was in constant communication and sent pictures almost daily. She super spoiled my baby and he had a blast the whole time! She even went above and beyond and took him to be groomed at her shop.”


“Elizabeth was amazing with our Chesapeake! We appreciated her communication, pictures, and videos while we were away. I feel lucky to have found her and would definitely recommend her!”

“Thanks to Rusty, I was at ease traveling for a few days with the dogs in his care. Rusty has a dog-friendly space indoors and out and was attentive to the dogs’ individual personality traits and needs. This was the first time I’ve left them with a sitter and both dogs responded well and appeared comfortable. It’s a huge relief to know that Rusty is available to care for my dogs if I need to be away.”

“A thousand stars. Kelsey helped me out in a pinch. Lovely and inviting personality, lovely and inviting home. Very flexible -- (wasn't sure when, exactly, I would complete my 1000 mile drive, and drop off my goober dog). Benny was instantly comfortable with Kelsey even though we hadn't had time for a meet and greet. Kelsey kept me in touch with how he was doing in general, and checked in with me when she detected a brief limp. REALLY STELLAR experience -- cannot recommend highly enough.”

“Jennifer and her family took good care of our little Jax. She sent pictures with updates during his stay. He seemed very happy and relaxed with them. We are glad we found someone who not only can take care of him but also cares about his well being.”

“This was my first time using Rover and Chisato gave me the confidence I needed. She was amazing with King. He also enjoyed his time playing with toys and being a good boy on walks. I also really enjoyed receiving tons of videos and pictures of King while I was away. I’ll definitely book again with her in the future. ☺️”


About: My husband I both grew up with golden retrievers and have a soft spot for them. When I was first out on my own and bought my first home, I rescued a pit bull and she was with me until she passed. My husband, sons and I are all dog lovers and would love to welcome your dog into our home. My husband is home full time and I work from home and we are anxious to care for your pet! We have 2 sons - ages 6 and 10, so kid-friendly dogs are a must. We are available any day of the week at any time, unless we have something specific planned (which is not often). Please feel free to ask about specific dates and times and I will be sure to add you to my calendar! My husband is home full time and I work from home so we have ample amounts of time to care for your pet. My 2 sons LOVE dogs and love to play and take dogs on walks. Our yard is unfenced, per our HOA rules so your pet will always be on a leash for potty breaks and walks around the neighborhood. Pets are free to explore the entire home and will not be crated or gated, unless a crate is provided and requested.
“Don’t wait to book your dog’s stay with Debbie and her lovely family! She gave our 6 month Golden Retriever so much love and attention while we were away. We’ve already rebooked with Debbie for our next trip. She kept us updated with photos and made us feel at ease. Thank you Debbie!!”
