“We were in town from Atlanta for a family reunion and used Sarah for dog sitting our Rosie. Rosie loved her. She has a quiet and comfortable home. Rosie had everything she needed and was very happy when we picked her up. Sarah’s backyard is great. Rosie highly recommends Sarah!!”
“I'm so happy Mya is the sitter I chose. Her back yard is a PUPPY PARADISE... I'm used to apartment living and having to leash walk Luci several times a day. But at Mya's house, Luci can run around in a big secure fenced-in yard with lush grass. It was like a real vacation for her. Mya has cameras on her phone so she can watch the dogs when she's away from the house. She is so chill and welcoming. I brought up my dog's behavioral issues, and she really took the time during the initial meeting to make sure her 4 pups and mine were going to get along OK, and to answer any questions I might have. Her small dogs are very sweet, and Luci made fast friends with them. I got updates with photos and video every day. Overall it was an amazing experience, and I hope we get to make this a more regular thing. Would rate 6 stars if I could.”
“Taylor was great! She sent lots of pictures and took Millie on a few walks a day which Millie loves. She also gave updates on how she playing with the other dogs that were there which puts our minds at ease.”
“Our dogs obviously had a great time. Karen sent us pictures and those guys were having the time of their lives. Karen was so flexible and understanding when we had some changes to make. Her place is an awesome doggy hotel.”
“I can't say enough great things about Ruth! She took excellent care of our 2 dogs while we went on vacation for a week. She provided them with snuggles, walks, and social time and provided us with peace of mind so we could relax. She sent us a few pictures and even some videos! I highly recommend Ruth and we look forward to seeing her again in the future!”
“Absolutely wonderful! Would 100% recommend! Cassandra is amazing and our cats were safe, comfortable and well cared for. We received reqular photos and updates. I couldn't have imagined better care!”
“Boomer had a great time with Dan! We appreciate that he took the time to do a meet and greet beforehand and showed us around the space. When we picked Boomer up, it was clear he had a good time and really tuckered out! Thanks again Dan.”
About: Leaving your dog with someone else can be stressful, but our goal is to make their stay feel like a fun, comfortable vacation rather than time away from home! We are lifelong animal lovers and have cared for pets of all kinds —from dogs and cats to fish, turtles, guinea pigs, and just about anything in between. Over the years, friends, family, and neighbors have continually trusted my wife and I to care for their beloved pets, and we truly enjoy having animals as part of our family. We board only one family’s dog(s) at a time, so your pup gets plenty of personalized attention rather than being one of many dogs competing for care. Our four children, ages 8–13, are also huge animal lovers and are always excited to provide extra attention, affection, and playtime. With six people in our household, your dog will have plenty of companionship and will quickly feel like part of the family. We live on a 4-acre property that gives your dog plenty of space to enjoy new sights, sounds, and smells. For safety, exploring the property is done on leash, and the abundant wildlife in the area provides plenty of interesting things for curious noses to investigate! Your dog will be walked at least once in the morning and once in the evening, with bathroom breaks every 2–4 hours or as needed. During the week, my wife and I have the ability to work from home, allowing us to provide care and companionship throughout the day. We understand that every dog has their own routine and personality, and we’ll do our best to maintain their normal schedule and make them feel comfortable during their stay. We do require dogs to be potty trained and have no history of aggression. We also ask that dogs be trained not to chew on household items or other non-toy objects. We completely understand that puppies are still learning, though, and we’re happy to work with them and provide the patience and supervision they need! Most importantly, we want you to feel confident and comfortable while your dog is in our care. We’re happy to learn about your dog’s personality, routines, favorite activities, and any special quirks that will help us give them the best possible stay. We look forward to meeting you and your pup and welcoming them into our home! When your dog stays with us, they won’t just be a guest—they’ll be part of our family No matter what our day looks like, there is always someone available to provide the attention and consistency of car for your dog(s), which is the number one priority. We also have a furnished basement that can be closed off if needed. Or a quiet capped garage and workshop room depending on the sleeping arrangements your dog is accustomed to. If you could please let me know of any special needs your dog may require or want.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my entire life, having 6 since I’ve been a child. 2 Portuguese water dogs, 2 pitbulls, and 2 French bull dogs. I have been relied on by friends and family to watch and care for their dogs throughout the years I’m currently a Pre Dental student at Loras. My schedule is open for weekday afternoons and overnight of the week, I can be of service when you need someone to watch your pet overnight or just let them go potty in the middle of the day. In my home we use pee pads, take the dogs on walks, and have a fenced in backyard. We feed them 2-3 times a day, and give them lost of love. I understand how important it is to let the dogs outside while you are away and want to be an option for others like me.
“Angela was so great with our 2 pups! They had a blast playing with her dog Ellie and giving lots of cuddles on the couch and in bed! She also helped us out with having someone pick up the dogs and being them back so they could be a part of our wedding day! I highly recommend her!”
About: I've been taking care of pets for as long as I can remember! Training them, walking, feeding, bathing, and playing are all part of the package! I am almost available all the time.

I am very patient and try to listen to what your pets tell me, but not TOO much! I will always try and make sure your pet has the best time and will be safe 😊
“Remi loves going out on adventures with Ann and Greg! As a pet parent, I love getting the updates and pictures of him having fun! When life gets busy, I know I can trust Ann and Greg to care for our fur babies!”
About: I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes and personalities, including feeding, walking, playtime, and providing companionship while owners are away. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable in their routine, and I do my best to keep things familiar and stress-free. I’m reliable, attentive, and always treat every dog with care and patience. I maintain a very flexible routine and am home the majority of the day. I do volunteer a few hours daily, but I’m otherwise available to care for pets, provide attention, and keep them on their normal schedule. Dogs in my care will have a stable environment, regular potty breaks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment for every dog in my care. I make sure pets are always supervised, comfortable, and kept in a clean, secure space where they can relax and feel at home.

About: I am a very attentive and caring dog and cat lover! I have a huge yard and a spare bedroom for all dogs. As for cats, I have two of my own.

I work full time M-F so I would have an open schedule for your pet during the weekend! I have two loving cats who enjoy cats and dogs of all sizes!

“Ellie was wonderful with our two cats! Even our cat who is usually very scared of new people felt comfortable enough to come get pets from her. We would definitely ask Ellie to take care of them again.”
“Ann is a thorough and caring sitter. She looked in our cat while we were away for a long weekend. Because he is an indoor/outdoor cat, the care instructions are a bit different than an indoor only cat. Ann followed through on all which we really appreciated. Plus, she took the time to give Toby plenty of attention during her visits which he loves. She is terrific!”
“I appreciate her communication and understanding when it comes to my cat. Even when he was being dramatic and not taking his medication she stayed extra to ensure he took his meds and was taken care of.”
“Samantha is AMAZING! She was so good with our high maintenance kitty and followed all of our directions. She even searched all of her hiding spots so she could check on her and send us a pic. Would recommend!!”
About: As a lifelong animal lover and future veterinarian, I bring 3.5 years of hands-on veterinary medicine experience as a Veterinary Assistant, along with a genuine love for cats. I’m currently pursuing my Bachelor’s degree in Animal Science with a Pre-Veterinary focus, working toward my goal of becoming a veterinarian. Growing up on a family dairy farm, I was surrounded by animals from an early age and helped care for many kittens and farm cats. This taught me the importance of patience, responsibility, and understanding each animal’s unique personality and needs. Through my veterinary experience, I’ve cared for and hospitalized numerous cats, providing attentive monitoring, feeding, cleaning, enrichment, and comfort. I’m also experienced with safely handling cats and administering oral medications when needed. My time in a veterinary setting has taught me how to recognize changes in behavior and health and when something may require additional attention. As a flexible and reliable college student, I’m happy to work with your schedule and follow your cat’s established routine. Whether your cat is playful, shy, independent, cuddly, or somewhere in between, I’ll provide patient, compassionate, and individualized care. Your cat’s comfort, safety, and happiness are my top priorities while you’re away! 🐱❤️
“Jessica was amazing! She sent frequent and useful updates on my kitty while I was away, and was extremely easy to communicate with. I felt completely confident with her, and I will be using her again! Thanks again from Emma and Isaac ?”
“Rachel did a great job checking on my cats while I was away. She showed up when she said she would and my typically shy cat even came out to say hi. I'll be happy to rebook her the next time I travel.”
“Nora is great! I always know my Finley will get such good attention. He loves belly rubs and treats of carrots and she always makes sure he gets these! i want to wish her a very Merry Christmas.”

“Louie loves going to daycare at Karen’s! He’s so excited to socialize with Bella and run around the play yard. I can always tell he gets plenty of exercise because he snoozes soon after we get home. Karen goes above and beyond with being flexible and is fast with communication. Thank you Karen for taking care of Louie!”
“Ann & Greg are very welcoming and are familiar with Ella's breed. Ella was relaxed after her walk and loves the outdoors so their property is perfect for her. She'll be going back to enjoy their dogs and property very soon. I would highly recommend Ann & Greg.”
“Mya was great! She helped out fairly last minute dog sitting while we had movers at our house. Ollie had a great time playing with the other dogs, but was given some indoor puppy naptime/snuggle time too. She sent photo updates throughout the day. Highly recommended.”
“Our dog Oliver had his first Rover experience two days ago. It couldn’t have been any better. Angy has a little 5 lb dog so the two dogs played and cuddled all day. Angy and her husband showed genuine concern for our dog’s well being. Oliver came home a very happy and tired dog. Finding Angy was a big blessing.”
“Tamara was so great and sent pictures throughout the day of Loki. It was our first time using a sitter for our puppy and she was accommodating with ALL my questions. It was such a relief to not have to stress while I was out of town for work.”

About: I’ve always considered myself an animal lover and I’ve had pets in my life since I was a kid. I grew up with 2 Shorkies and one Havanese. I took care of them for years and I also pet sat for friends, family and neighbors. I love all pets but I have most experience with smaller dogs. I’m currently working part time so I will have loads of time to hang out with your fur babies. I am available for walks and drop ins as needed. I don’t have any pets at the moment but that means that I can give my full attention to your pets instead. I also don’t have a yard currently but I have plenty of places to go on walks. Also I should mention that I am quite allergic to cats so I will not be able to pet sit your kitties but I totally can take care of your dogs.
“Becky is awesome! She was graciously available last minute to walk my dogs and was on time, let them go at their normal pace and sent me pictures! Would highly recommend Becky to take care of your fur babies ?”
About: Nestled in the quiet countryside, I offer loving, in-home boarding for dogs and cats in a peaceful, natural setting. With plenty of fresh air, daily walks, and attentive care, your pets are treated like family while they’re away from home. Able to care for animals at all stages in their life. I love taking long walks with canine companions! Your dogs will not be unleashed on a walk unless your specify! A client’s cat or dog fits naturally into my daily routine because their care is built around their needs, not a rigid schedule. Each day follows a calm, predictable flow—morning feedings, medications if needed, fresh air, walks or supervised outdoor time for dogs, and quiet check-ins or play for cats—mirroring what they’re used to at home as closely as possible. Throughout the day, I weave in one-on-one attention, enrichment, rest, and observation, so pets aren’t just “fit in,” but thoughtfully included in a rhythm that keeps them comfortable, engaged, and well cared for from morning to night. Tailoring your services starts with seeing each pet as an individual, not a “one-size-fits-all” guest. Begin with a detailed intake or meet-and-greet to learn the pet’s routine, personality, energy level, medical needs, fears, and preferences. From there, you can adjust care in a few key ways: • Routine-based care: Match feeding times, walk schedules, playtime, and sleep habits as closely as possible to what the pet is used to at home. • Personality-aware handling: Offer extra quiet and space for shy or senior pets, more structured play and exercise for high-energy dogs, and gentle, low-stress interactions for anxious animals. • Health-focused support: Follow specific instructions for medications, mobility limits, special diets, or senior care, and keep careful notes so nothing is missed. • Environment choices: Decide whether a pet thrives with social interaction or prefers solo time, indoor lounging, or outdoor exploration in your country setting.
“Literal lifesaver. Has provided so much comfort knowing my pup is taken care of and in good hands so I can give the appropriate level of focus my patients deserve. Truly would be most without Ashlyns help! 🙏🏻”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. Family and friends rely on me to watch their dogs overnight, feed and give them love. I’m currently not working, so I will have tons of time to play and care for your pups. I’m available for boarding through out the week and weekends. I can give your dogs walks and have plenty of time for play. I would give your dog the same love as if it was my own.
About: I own two high energy dogs, Josie and Stella, both raised from puppies, so I know how stressful puppy parenting can be. Growing up on a farm surrounded by animals is where I developed my love for caring for them, and it’s where I learned responsibility. We often head to the farm for extra playtime and walks, so your pup will have plenty of fun, exercise, and love no energy left behind! I’m currently in school for respiratory therapy, so I’ve cut back on my hours. I work most weekends 2-10:30. Then a few shifts throughout the week occasionally. Other than that, I’m pretty available around my work and school schedule, and I can’t wait to care for and love your animals! I have two friendly, high energy dogs who love to play! While we don’t have a fenced yard, we’re lucky to have country property with plenty of space to walk around the fields.
“Jessica has been walking our dog for over a year. She is great with him and he gets so excited when she arrives. We have also had drop in visits that helped us out. Highly recommend her services.”
About: I have experience with all types of animals and I’ve always been an animal person at heart. I have over 10 years of experience with animals, both in a vet hospital and in boarding centers. I have walked, ran, played, cleaned, and cared for their well being! I am usually available all day throughout the week and partly on weekends! I am a very caring and energetic person who will be attentive towards your loved one! I can play frisbee or catch and walk miles for some good exercise! A healthy pet is a happy pet. Please be aware that I have other side jobs to attend to throughout the week! I am very flexible, feel free to message me for any questions! Thank you. I currently have a very flexible 9-5 job so I can make time for walks, feeding, and quality time! I am completely free on weekends How I care for your pet is completely customary to you and your pets needs! I am very flexible and attentive and would love to help in any way!
About: I am open to most pets. Cats, Dogs, Horses, Calves, Lambs, Guinea Pigs, Turtles, etc..... If extra special care or out of state, I do charge travel fees. I do have experience with older pets and young ones. I have been known to raise Opossums from the size of mice to adults. If that gives you an idea! I am open to new proposals and willing to negotiate new situations! (Unencountered situations when it comes to pets) I also House-sit, plants, pets etc... I do travel out of state to Illinois (Mostly the North suburbs of Chicago) and Wisconsin. This is where I have done house-sitting. Pets and Plants can be included in this care. I do add travel expenses, mainly for gas, when traveling for house sitting. I get up in the morning and get my coffee going and then tend to pets that are around. They get fed first thing, inside and outside. Feral cats seem to be present in the morning. Litter boxes are checked. Water Bowls. Mostly I go to people's homes and care for the pets at their houses, but I have had people bring them to me. I have an extra room set up in my barn if there are anxieties or stress with animals and they need a quiet place. I am in the process of updating that room a little more. It is heated for the winter months. I do have hand brushes and combs for extra attention and I do go talk to whoever is around. If dogs come, they can be walked. Although I live in a small town, I am close to nice places to walk on the edge of town.
“Clayton did a great job with Ozzy! Ozzy can be a real handful on his walks, but Clayton did a great job. I really appreciated the pictures from the walks and the report card. I would recommend Clayton to anyone who wanted any of the services you provide for dogs. I will definitely be using Clayton services in the future.”

About: I've sat for many different breeds and species over the years. I grew up always having some type of animal in the home, especially dogs. I have two dogs and a cat now. I love cooking for them and knowing exactly what is going in their food. I love making home made treats for them as well. I even sew for them at times. I've made boots, coats, beds, Halloween costumes, toys, etc. Right now, my schedule is pretty flexible, which means I have lots of time to dedicate purely to furkids. I am close with a professional dog trainer and am able to ask any question, which is always a big help. My vet has great hours and very accessible as well for any questions or concerns.
