Personalized care for your dog or cat - Sampson
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Sampson
“Meeko stayed with her for over a week, and we had a wonderful experience! Since he’s still a young puppy, I was nervous about leaving him, but he was well cared for and had a great time playing in the fenced-in yard. He came home happy, and it was clear he felt comfortable there. We would definitely book with her again!”
“Melissa and her family did such a great job with Tucker while we were out of state for a family wedding. Tucker tends to have separation anxiety when away from his people, but he was very at home with Melissa! Thank you for providing peace of mind while we were away!”
“I highly recommend Julia. From the moment we connected, her communication was clear, prompt, and thoughtful. She sent pics and updates during the stay and treated Tuco with genuine affection-like a member of her own family. Tuco came home happy, relaxed and tired. ;) Truly a joy to work with-I'll definitely book again!”
“For a recent week - long vacation, we left our 3 year old golden doodle with Jeff. This was our first time using Rover and leaving her in someone else's home. After an initial meet and greet, we felt very comfortable with Jeff and Ember loved his fenced in yard. We liked the photo and written updates we received while vacationing. Jeff provided daily walks and outside time. He respected Ember's schedule and tried to maintain her schedule. In addition to our toys and treats, he also provided some. We will definitely use Jeff's boarding for future get aways.”
“Highly recommend Kristin handled my large-breed dogs with so much patience and confidence. It’s clear she have a genuine love for animals and understand how to manage different personalities and energy levels. The communication was excellent”
“Kristal and Scott were really great sitters. My Sophia was well taken care of and loved by them. She sent me updates on her and pictures almost on a daily basis. I would recommend them and use them in the future.”
“This was our first time leaving Osito overnight anywhere outside our home and we left him for 7 nights. Shanna was amazing making Osito feel comfortable. Osito had a chance to interact with other dogs as well (something he previously had not had much experience with) and we got pictures daily of how he was doing. It was great peace of mind knowing that even though we missed him he was having a little vacation of his own. We will definitely be booking with Shanna again when the time comes.”
“Our dog had an excellent stay! She treated him like one of the family. I also got updates every day or so, which was really nice to see. We will definitely use Mackenzie again for our dog”
“Holly was great! My dog Ivy loved staying at their place. She made a new best friend and loved the extra attention. Highly recommend and will use them again when we go out of town.”
“Nix had a great time at Kerstyn's home. She is a great communicator and updates you frequently. Nix was wore out after 2 days of playing with her 2 pups. They all got along great ! We will use Kerstyn again in the future, Thanks again !”
“Shelby was AMAZING! We left the country for a week and a half and were so nervous about leaving our dog with someone new, but Shelby made us so comfortable by letting us come and meet her first and then sending lots of cute pictures and messages throughout our pup's stay. Shelby and her family gave our pup so much love and attention, and he had a great stay. He had so much fun he didn't want to leave when we finally came home! We'd recommend her to anyone and will definitely be back!”
“Kaylyn was amazing with my dog, Riley! He had a wonderful time, and it was clear he was happy and comfortable in her care. She sent daily updates and photos, which kept me at ease and reassured that he was having a great time. I could tell he was truly well looked after, and I never had to worry. I would highly recommend Kaylyn to anyone in need of a caring, attentive dog sitter!”
“Angela was the best!! She was super accommodating for our pup Molly and sent us multiple pictures/ checked in regularly. I would absolutely love to book with her again and 3000% recommend her to others!”
“Denise is very friendly! She invited us over for a “meet and greet” before we booked and that was super helpful. She kept us up to date with texts and pictures while we were away. Marlo was well taken care of care of, and it was so nice to travel “worry free”. We’d highly recommend and will definitely book again! Thank you so much!”
“Melissa and her mother were very welcoming and accommodating for our stay with them. Due to a change in plans on my part, she allowed me to pick up my dog earlier than arranged which was very nice. They notified me of my dog's progress and sent pictures of her stay.”
“Raina watched my Snickers for two days and took excellent care of her. Snickers is old and she accommodated for her 13 year old body taking her out frequently and helping her up onto furniture. The home was clean and safe for my baby girl. I would definitely recommend Raina!”
“Mary was amazing!! My dog does not normally like new people but he loved Mary and she took great care of him. I even had to book last minute because of a funeral. I was able to be fully present with my family at our time of loss because my dog was so well cared for. Thanks Mary!!”
“Kevin did a great job with Coral. She took to him right away like she has always known him. It was obvious he interacted with her a lot, throwing a ball and petting. Will certainly use Kevin again.”

Cat caregivers near you - Sampson
“I was so anxious leaving my two cats while on a two week trip abroad - I’d never been away from them so far or for so long. It took a couple of days, but then they warmed right up to Jeanne. She had tuned into what they needed and provided consistent care - along with great updates and photos from each visit for me - allowing me to focus on my trip. When I returned, I found two happy, well-adjusted cats waiting for me. It was such a relief to know they were in such good hands with Jeanne!”
“Christina has been blessing for me and my cats! - She is very sweet, gentle, caring and truly takes care of your cats as her own. Although I missed my babies when I went on vacation, I knew they were well taken care of and that gave me the peace of mind I needed to relax during my trip. She updates you regularly and is very good at following instructions. She even brought some toys for my kitties! Upon my return, I came back home to happy cats and a clean home! I highly recommend Christina and would hire her again!!”
“Carly is great! She did drop in visits with my two cats while I was out of town for 4 days. She sent me a lot of pictures and videos during her visits. The kitties were so happy when I returned home and I felt great about letting them stay in their own home!”

About: I have volunteered at the Humane Society as a dog walker for 6+ months and now I currently volunteer providing vet services, worked at The Animal House as a kennel assistant, and working on a dairy farm while at college. My work experience has taught me how to medicate, walk, feed, and groom all breeds of dogs and cats! I am currently a student at UW-Platteville for pre-veterinarian/animal science and working at the campus dairy farm. I love spending my time every day playing with my own pets, pet sitting for friends on weekends, and of course going to work. At your home, I will treat it just as mine. I understand the level of trust there is to allow someone into your home and I will respect you and your space.
About: Growing up on a small farm, we always had cats (good mousers), which we as kids were responsible for - feeding, cleaning & playing. As an adult, I've had several cats that were wonderful companions and lived pampered lives, to old age. Currently, I'm fostering my sisters cat (she's indoor/outdoor) with lots of personality. Her box gets scooped 2x/day and she's spoiled with 3 feedings/day. Each cat is different and I love getting to know their personality and playfulness. If medications are needed, I have experience with that, too.
About: I’ve always loved and lived around cats since a baby, my mother was allergic but we still had a kitty growing up as did family members and I’ve always loved to play and cuddle with them!! I now have my own brown/grey tabby kitty named Aurora 💞
About: My name is Holly, I worked as a Pet groomer for 4years. There I learned all sorts of things. From nail clippings to anal gland expressions. After my arm gave out I went to a vet clinic where I was in charge of the kennels. I have experience working with all sort of dogs at all sorts of ages with all sorts of temperaments. Some needed special attention and some where happy with just hanging out. I must say the special needs animals are my favorite. I love giving that extra care to make sure every pet I encounter feels safe and comfy. At the vet clinic I also learned various first aid techniques. I love animals more than I love people. I'm pretty flexible and don't mind bending my time slots in order to accommodate your 4legged friend.
About: I'm a 26yo who has owned cats and dogs my entire life. Currently, I'm the parent of a very energetic husky and 2 cats. I am very active and athletic, so keeping up with a dog's energy is second nature. I love taking my pup for runs, walks, swims, and play time at the dog park. He loves to play with other dogs and can be a playmate if you wanted. I have over 20 years experience in personally caring for animals: including feeding, changing litter boxes, play time, cleaning messes, administration first aid and medications, IV injections, and keeping an eye for unusual behavior. I am caring for an animal every day of the week. I can fit in a lot given my flexible work schedule and ability to travel. Everyone has different standards for pet care, and I am open to adapting and curating care based on individuals and pet needs. I can be a great service in keeping your pet active when needed, and to help keep them calm when necessary. I know socializing and connecting are a huge need to properly care for animals, so as an animal lover I always try to find a connection with the animals I care for
About: I’m a life long lover of all animals, who has turned my passion into a full-time career. My experience spans from dogs, cats, small animals (e.g. ferrets), reptiles, small farm animals and horses. Before adding my services to Rover I have house sat at barns, taking care of multiple types of different animals in addition to watching the house for 7+ days. I've grown up with dogs my whole life leading me to participate in multiple puppy classes from vet centers and certified training facilities from a young age. Naturally, this had then led me to work professionally with dogs of all sizes, ages, breeds, and needs while getting comfortable with different harnesses and collars. I understand the importance of honoring body language for non-verbal communication, being conscious of meals + medication and how to maneuver in/out of doors/gates without escapes. My top priority is making sure the health, safety and comfortability of all animals is met to the highest standard. I do have reliable transportation for any emergencies as well and stress that I will not leave your pet until the situation is fully handled. As a calm, level headed and experienced individual, I strive to provide your animal with compassionate care through reliability, consistency, transparency, safety, dedication, and being detail orientated. I have a flexible schedule due to being self employed. My career is focused around feeding horses and training which leaves me with room to attend to the care for other clients animals. When it comes to taking care of someone else's animal, I believe a discussion about what is expected (e.g. feeding times) is vital to quality care first. In addition to meeting all basic needs, I will love the animal as if they were my own!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, horses, goats, cows etc since I was little. I worked at the Crivitz Countryside Veterinary Clinic for 5 years right out of high school. I want to help others with their pets needs just as I would want the help in return. I live in Shawano, but work in Howard/Green Bay Mon-Friday. I’m able to take care of pet needs in either location, anywhere in between, or slightly past those points! 😊❤️ On weekends I have more availability to do multiple drop in visits and more frequent dog walks. Daycare/Boarding is convenient for nonstop snuggles, chit chats, fetch, walks, treats, and a watchful eye on your fur babies. 10 acres with a pond/river wooded backyard. I have one dog who is high energy, but independent enough to do her own thing. She loves to play fetch, walk the trails in the woods, and car rides. I will always introduce my dog to yours through a baby gate, once they get smells/intro’s over with I like to have them meet outside for a potty break, this method takes the protective instincts away. Guards come down. A little trick I learned from working at the Vet Clinic that hasn’t let me down yet. I can keep them separate from one another also if you wish/request. Though my dog is a fixed/spayed female. I have a split level 4 bedroom house that allows a lot of space in the two living room areas in case your pet prefers their own space to eat/protective. I live 8 min from the Shawano dog park and less than 5 min from the dog beach.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Sampson
“I couldn’t have been happier with the care and attention Breanna gave to our pets. The whole process was so easy and Breanna was very accommodating. She sent pictures and messages to let me know how our babies were doing and allowed us to have a great day without worrying about our pets. She is a very sweet girl with an obvious love for animals. An overall outstanding experience; I would highly recommend her!!!”

“Shelby was wonderful and communicated with us the entire stay and kept us updated on how they were doing. We are traveling and went to a Packers game and toured Greenbay. Pistol Annie and Stetson had great care and would highly recommend Shelby to keep your fur babies.”
About: I grew up 5 pets at home. My mom has worked for rover for 5 years, I’ve helped her growing up. I also love animals so much! I am a college athlete here at Green Bay.

About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong dog lover who recently retired, and I’m looking to fill my days with some extra puppy love. My pup, Cullen, and I are a duo that loves company. Since I’m home throughout the day, your dog will have constant supervision, plenty of backyard time, and all the belly rubs they can handle. We’re looking for friendly companions to join us for neighborhood strolls and afternoon naps. Your pup won’t just be "staying" here—they’ll be part of the family! Since I am retired, my schedule is completely dedicated to pet care. Your dog will enjoy 24/7 companionship and a consistent routine, as I am home full-time to provide potty breaks, backyard play, and plenty of cuddles. Cullen and I are very flexible with drop-off and pick-up times, and we look forward to a Meet & Greet to ensure a perfect match! We offer a fully fenced-in backyard featuring a beautiful koi pond. To ensure a safe and harmonious environment for everyone, I look for guest dogs who have a solid foundation in basic obedience and a 'gentle' temperament around water and wildlife. My own dog loves making new friends, and I prioritize active supervision to ensure all 'fur babies'—and my fish—stay happy and safe!
About: I’ve been around dogs, cats and other pets my whole life. I grew up on a hobby farm and have over 10 years of experience caring for pets of all ages—from kittens and puppies to seniors. I currently have two dogs of my own and know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. Since I work from home, I’m able to be flexible and give your pet the attention they deserve, whether that’s regular walks, check-ins, or just some extra company during the day. I’m also a clear communicator and will always keep you in the loop while you're away. Looking forward to getting to know your pet! I work from home, so I am flexible about what time of day I can drop in on your pets. I can also bring my computer and work from your home if needed. Weekend availability varies but I keep my schedule up to date on Rover. I take care of pets in their own home so they can stay in a familiar, stress-free environment. I'll follow the routine you provide—whether it’s feeding, walks, or medication—and make sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’m respectful of your home, double-check doors and gates, and always keep you updated with how things are going. Whether it’s a drop-in, walk, or overnight stay, you can count on reliable care and clear communication.

“I truly appreciate Colleen for taking care of my fur baby all day! She is super nice and took very good care of my fur baby! I definitely recommend her. If and when I am back in Greenbay I will for sure do another booking with her.”
“Fantastic care for a difficult pup. Kevin took care of my pug puppy for a whole day. “Buddy” is only 5 months old and a real handful, but Kevin kept him happy all day. In fact Buddy seemed to be a better dog when him came home. Could be because he was exhausted from a great day. Should I need help in the future, Kevin will be my first choice!”
“Melanie took great care of Sadie. Sadie had an amazing time working on new commands/tricks, getting her zoomies out in the yard, and playing with puzzle toys! I would 100% recommend Melanie to anyone looking for daycare or other services. She was very responsive and a pleasure to have watch Sadie.”
“I’m so happy with Kaylyn. Her family was super welcoming and sweet. She sent pictures and updates throughout the day and even sent him home with a box of homemade dog treats! I can count on one hand how many people I’ve let watch my dog. Being new to the area my closest family and friends are hours away. I will absolutely book with Kaylyn again!”

Adventure-ready dog walkers - Sampson
About: Animals have always been a central part of my life — from growing up around horses and barn cats to caring for beloved family dogs. I have over 30 years of equine experience and have worked in a veterinary clinic as a vet assistant, which means I’m confident providing basic first aid, administering medications, and making sure your dog is safe, healthy, and happy. I have experience working as a vet tech and also worked as zookeeper at the NEW Zoo for a while. Today, I share my home with Luna, our fun-loving dog, and carry with me the experience of caring for our cherished golden doodle for 14 wonderful years. I live on a peaceful horse property with 5 acres of land (there is a safe fenced-in area for dogs away from the horses) where your dog will have plenty of space to run, sniff, and explore — or simply relax in the fresh country air. My goal is to make every dog feel like they’re part of the family, because to me, they truly are. I currently work from home so I am always available to love your pet and take care of their needs! I love taking care of dogs! Your dog will love my 5 acres of open land, plus a fenced yard and secure playpen for safe play. I also have three gentle, dog-friendly horses who keep the atmosphere calm and welcoming. I do have three cats, but they are barn cats and when they see a new dog, they are very, very good at hiding out. I live on a street that is tucked away from the busy road . Inside my house it is very pet friendly and I do have a nice kennel that dogs are able to go in if they need that.
“Melissa and Buster have made it very easy for me to recoup from a broken ankle by walking Penny three times a day for the last month plus. Penny absolutely adores them and is always anxious to go on her walks. They love her as much as she loves them with lots of kisses and hugs. I will definitely call on them in the future and recommend them to anyone who wants caring walkers or sitters.”
About: I have experience caring for both dogs and cats, and what sets me apart is my flexibility and commitment—I’m willing to adjust personal plans to ensure pets are well cared for and I’m able to travel as needed. As a physical therapist, I bring strong safety awareness, a structured and reliable approach to routines, and clear, timely communication with frequent updates and quick responses. I work four 10-hour shifts, but I’m happy to stop by during my lunch break to let the pets out. I also have a three-day weekend available to spend extra time caring for them. I am flexible, dependable, and willing to take on any tasks required. I’m happy to follow instructions and assist wherever I’m needed to make sure everything is taken care of.
About: I used to work at Bark and Brew and occasionally dog sit! I have three of my own puppies at home so I have plenty of experience as well as also fostering dogs! I’m looking for something to do in my free time as well as making some furry friends 😊 I am currently working two part time jobs but I can help before or after either of the job when need be. I have lots of free time in the middle of the day between 12-4! I love interacting with pets as in playing with them or walking them! I make sure they get everything they need and more hoping to make their day enjoyable!
About: I am very proud to be a "fear free handler". That's a big thing for me, if an animal is uncomfortable, I am 100% uncomfortable along with them.. learning their little quirks and finding ways to do things in the best way possible for that specific animal is what I do and I absolutely love doing it. I promise your animal will be cared for deeply while in my care. My passion has always been working with animals, providing them with the care and respect they deserve and I have extensive experience in the field. I’ve worked in horse barns, animal shelters, and dog boarding facilities, and I’m skilled in administering all types of medications, including insulin. Whether it’s feral cats or reactive dogs, I have the patience and expertise to help them adjust and thrive, including building trust with new people. I understand how intimidating change can be for animals, and I’m dedicated to making those transitions as smooth as possible. I’ve dedicated countless unpaid hours to caring for animals, driven solely by my love and commitment to their well-being. When you entrust me with your pet, I promise to care for them as if they were my own, providing compassion, patience, and unwavering dedication in every situation. I am pretty open with my schedule. I will love your babies like my own. I do work mon-thurs 3-9pm and Saturday 11-4. I am a perfectionist. If you tell me you want something done in a specific way or at a certain time, please let me know!! I'd be more than happy to jump through hoops to give your baby(s) what they need when and how they need it. I will put your animal above everything else, that's what I'm paid for and that's what I love doing.

About: I've cared for all kinds of pets, mainly dogs and cats - all sizes and breeds. Most recently, I traveled to the southwest, house sitting the winter in CA, AZ and NM. Each extended stay (2-3 weeks each) included caring for dogs and keeping their routine (feeding/watering, cleaning up after, daily walks, play time & grooming), and maintaining the household (water plants/garbage pickup/mail collection, etc.) for 3 months. Some needed medication, in which I'm comfortable with (instructions required) and some had minor behavioral issues, but all manageable. I'm a 5-star house sitter on trustedhousesitters .com I'm self-employed and work from home, so my schedule is flexible. This allows me to be available when needed and I'm mobile (have a car). As a responsible pet owner myself, routine and trust are important to me. I always follow instructions/owner preferences when caring for pets and hold the responsibility to a high standard. With me as your sitter, you will always find your home in the same (or better) condition as you left it, with happy pets to greet you.
About: I’m a life long lover of all animals, who has turned my passion into a full-time career. My experience spans from dogs, cats, small animals (e.g. ferrets), reptiles, small farm animals and horses. Before adding my services to Rover I have house sat at barns, taking care of multiple types of different animals in addition to watching the house for 7+ days. I've grown up with dogs my whole life leading me to participate in multiple puppy classes from vet centers and certified training facilities from a young age. Naturally, this had then led me to work professionally with dogs of all sizes, ages, breeds, and needs while getting comfortable with different harnesses and collars. I understand the importance of honoring body language for non-verbal communication, being conscious of meals + medication and how to maneuver in/out of doors/gates without escapes. My top priority is making sure the health, safety and comfortability of all animals is met to the highest standard. I do have reliable transportation for any emergencies as well and stress that I will not leave your pet until the situation is fully handled. As a calm, level headed and experienced individual, I strive to provide your animal with compassionate care through reliability, consistency, transparency, safety, dedication, and being detail orientated. I have a flexible schedule due to being self employed. My career is focused around feeding horses and training which leaves me with room to attend to the care for other clients animals. When it comes to taking care of someone else's animal, I believe a discussion about what is expected (e.g. feeding times) is vital to quality care first. In addition to meeting all basic needs, I will love the animal as if they were my own!
About: Let me know if your dog has any special needs, medications, or behaviors that I can account for or help with. I would love to help. If you have plants that need watering, mail, or packages that need to be brought in, I can help with that too! I'm retired and love traveling around Wisconsin and the world. Slow traveling is my favorite. I can explore new neighborhoods, cities, and local attractions without being rushed. I will follow your directions for your house and loved ones. Let me know the extra duties like watering, mail, or garbage routine. The house is left cleaner than I found it.
About: I have my puppy with Hydrocepilitis. People always ask me to sit with their dogs as they know dogs will be safe and happy with me I do Uber so my time is mine. I want to spend as much time with pets as possible as that's my passion and will make me and the pets happy I just moved to Seymour and would love to spend all my time with fur babies. I would love to lower my Uber and Doordash trips and replace that time with fur babies Being in Seymour, I can do from Appleton to Green Bay and everything in between I have my puppy and cat. I always have my dog and cat on either side of me. I talk to them and pet them constantly. They know they are loved
About: I’ve had my own pets since I was little. I’ve had hamsters, goldfish, frogs, bunnies, hamsters and a dog. I also have a few years experience with taking care of my grandmas cats. I have my own online business so I am very flexible with my schedule! & I can work around your pets schedule and needs 😊 Again I will be able to adjust my work schedule to your pets schedule. I am a very organized person so I will keep everything clean and tidy.
About: I've had dogs my entire life they've always been more like siblings to me than pets. Right now I have an Australian Shepherd and a German Shepard, I love them very much but now that I've moved out of my parents house I don't see them every single day and im missing some pet love!! I am a caregiver to the elderly and disabled as well but love giving care to any and all in need!! Very easy to work with. Shoot me a text. 😉 Caregiver all around 💞 I love being of service and giving care whether it be humans or animals, I enjoy what I do. Ask me more :) I do not board animals at this time due to having my own kitten, she is being introduced to other pets but is not yet fully comfortable
About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, and personalities throughout my life, from puppy stages to senior care. I’m comfortable with daily walks, feeding routines, administering medications, and giving pets the attention and patience they need to feel safe and happy. With my background as a CNA and caregiver, I naturally bring a calm, attentive, and detail-oriented approach to pet care. I understand how important it is to follow routines closely and make sure every pet is cared for as if they were my own. Whether your pet needs exercise, companionship, or extra care, I’m here to provide a reliable and loving experience you can feel confident in. My schedule is very flexible, which allows me to be available for last-minute bookings, drop-ins, and walks throughout the day. I’m currently looking to spend my time doing something meaningful while earning extra income, and caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy. I treat every pet with the same level of care, attention, and love that I give my own. I understand how important trust is when leaving your pet with someone, and I take that responsibility seriously. I focus on creating a calm, safe, and comfortable environment while following any routines or instructions you provide.
About: I'm a 26yo who has owned cats and dogs my entire life. Currently, I'm the parent of a very energetic husky and 2 cats. I am very active and athletic, so keeping up with a dog's energy is second nature. I love taking my pup for runs, walks, swims, and play time at the dog park. He loves to play with other dogs and can be a playmate if you wanted. I have over 20 years experience in personally caring for animals: including feeding, changing litter boxes, play time, cleaning messes, administration first aid and medications, IV injections, and keeping an eye for unusual behavior. I am caring for an animal every day of the week. I can fit in a lot given my flexible work schedule and ability to travel. Everyone has different standards for pet care, and I am open to adapting and curating care based on individuals and pet needs. I can be a great service in keeping your pet active when needed, and to help keep them calm when necessary. I know socializing and connecting are a huge need to properly care for animals, so as an animal lover I always try to find a connection with the animals I care for

“Meeko stayed with her for over a week, and we had a wonderful experience! Since he’s still a young puppy, I was nervous about leaving him, but he was well cared for and had a great time playing in the fenced-in yard. He came home happy, and it was clear he felt comfortable there. We would definitely book with her again!”
“Melissa and her family did such a great job with Tucker while we were out of state for a family wedding. Tucker tends to have separation anxiety when away from his people, but he was very at home with Melissa! Thank you for providing peace of mind while we were away!”
“I highly recommend Julia. From the moment we connected, her communication was clear, prompt, and thoughtful. She sent pics and updates during the stay and treated Tuco with genuine affection-like a member of her own family. Tuco came home happy, relaxed and tired. ;) Truly a joy to work with-I'll definitely book again!”

After an initial meet and greet, we felt very comfortable with Jeff and Ember loved his fenced in yard. We liked the photo and written updates we received while vacationing. Jeff provided daily walks and outside time. He respected Ember's schedule and tried to maintain her schedule. In addition to our toys and treats, he also provided some. We will definitely use Jeff's boarding for future get aways.”

“This was our first time leaving Osito overnight anywhere outside our home and we left him for 7 nights. Shanna was amazing making Osito feel comfortable. Osito had a chance to interact with other dogs as well (something he previously had not had much experience with) and we got pictures daily of how he was doing. It was great peace of mind knowing that even though we missed him he was having a little vacation of his own. We will definitely be booking with Shanna again when the time comes.”

“Shelby was AMAZING! We left the country for a week and a half and were so nervous about leaving our dog with someone new, but Shelby made us so comfortable by letting us come and meet her first and then sending lots of cute pictures and messages throughout our pup's stay. Shelby and her family gave our pup so much love and attention, and he had a great stay. He had so much fun he didn't want to leave when we finally came home! We'd recommend her to anyone and will definitely be back!”

I would highly recommend Kaylyn to anyone in need of a caring, attentive dog sitter!”
