I appreciated the excellent communication and updates throughout the day. I highly recommend Kim! I will definitely reach out to Kim for future bookings and dog daycare needs.”

About: I have been around dogs my whole life and currently have one of my own, so caring for them is second nature! I have experience with puppies all the way to senior dogs. We love to play, run around in our large yard, learn new tricks, and go on evening walks. There are also 2 kiddos at home who will make sure your pup is never bored! I work from home with a flexible schedule. The only time I am scheduled to leave the house is to take my kiddo to and from daycare. I am also flexible on if you would like long term or just occasional schedule. My dog is 5, and we have plenty of play time, potty breaks, and an evening walk. I treat any dog in my home as if it were my own! I have 1 dog now, so I am sure their schedules would likely align during the day.

“Bentley had a great day with Sara! I was anxious about leaving him somewhere new, and Sara made it much easier with frequent communication and photos while he was there. Bentley was happy and well-cared for! He is looking forward to his next stay ???”

About: Ever since I was 9 years old my family and neighbors have trusted me to take care of their pets. These pets included dogs, cats, rabbits, and horses. Because I work from home I have a super flexible schedule. In light of this, I am able to ensure your pet receives everything they need and more to thrive while staying in my home! I always make sure to feed them their appropriate food, always keeping the pets best health in mind and the owners request! I will always communicate to my best ability and make sure you know your pet is in good hands!

“Alyssa and her two pups were so good to Roo! She was willing to meet us for a meet and greet and took extra care of our little girl! Highly recommend!”

About: In my 10 years of pet sitting, I have had the privilege of caring for countless furry companions, each leaving an indelible mark on my heart. From energetic pups to wise senior dogs, I have witnessed the incredible bond that exists between pets and their owners. Through walks in the park, cozy snuggles, and endless playtime, I have come to understand the true joy and responsibility that comes with providing exceptional care for these beloved family members. My carefully crafted schedule for taking care of pups seamlessly integrates into my lifestyle, ensuring their needs are met while allowing me to maintain a balanced routine. With a structured approach, I provide regular feeding, exercise, and playtime sessions, tailored to each dog's unique requirements. This allows me to accommodate their specific needs while still managing my own commitments, ensuring a harmonious coexistence between their well-being and my personal life. This works especially well with my work from home job! At the forefront of my dog sitting service is a steadfast commitment to the safety, trust, and well-being of every dog under my care. I maintain a secure and pet-friendly environment, meticulously inspecting and childproofing the space to eliminate any potential hazards. With a vigilant eye and responsible supervision, I create a space where dogs can freely explore, play, and interact with peace of mind, fostering a trusting bond between myself and these furry companions.

About: Pets are treated like friends and family here. I will use the commands you’ve trained them to, use the harnesses, collars, and leashes you provide, and feed them only the food/treats you bring. My back yard is safe with a full 6-foot privacy fence and one gate that requires opposable thumbs to open. We live across the street from a bike walking by trail also in a subdivision with a boulevard for long enjoyable walks. I am a stay at home parent, so all pets will be given exceptional attention and needs given! Potty breaks and food scheduled time. I am home all day and evening Since I work from home, I’m able to maintain a regular schedule for the pets we care for. I provide regular bathroom breaks, lots of free-roaming time both inside and outside, access to fresh water at all times, and daily walks. I’m used to the zoomies-to-napping cycles!

About: I have dog- and cat- sat my cousins’ dogs, my supervisors’ dog and cat, and a friend’s puppy all throughout high school and college! I enjoy working with animals and being around them! I do have a full-time job but that will not stop me from taking care of pets during the evening hours and on the weekends. Additionally, most days I go home for an-hour long lunch break, where I would be able to take dogs out for walks! I have a size-able and dog-friendly apartment, so if you need me to crate your dog, there would be more than enough space! I also have a balcony, where I can take them out for some fresh air.

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 10. I’ve had a dog of my own until recently I dog sit for my parents when they go on vacation a couple times a year. I also am currently puppy sitting/training a couple days a week until June 2025. I’m the oldest of 4 so I was always the one who was responsible for walking, feeding and everything else dog related which in turn is what made me Love dogs. I love them more than people. I am not working so I am fully dedicated to your fur babies to play, take walks, go to the park we will even make treats together. I have a fully fenced in yard for monitored potty breaks and sun stretching time. I have a water station in the back room for the dogs use anytime, we will come up with a feed schedule together. I can crate your dog if you prefer if that’s what they are used to but not mandatory as I allow dogs on hooman spaces. They will have their own bed/toy area for comfort.
