From small Shih Tzu’s and Yorkies to larger Hunting Dogs, Huskys, and even rambunctious Labs! I’m flexible with care guides and times because I understand all Dogs (AND cats!) have different needs.

“Shaea has watched our little senior pup at least 5 times now!! She is the absolute perfect sitter!! She comes early, she even stays late to spend more time with Sonny before we get home!! She keeps the house so tidy, she send daily text updates with pictures. I know Sonny is in such good hands with her, she has been such a blessing to us. Highly recommend her for anyone needing a pet sitter, she is the best!!!! I honestly can’t give enough praises!!”
“Molly was a dream come true. She was friendly and energetic and made sure my baby didn't even realize I wasn't there. I hired her to stay at my house for the weekend and she was very respectful of my home. The only bad thing would probably be my dog was happy I was home but asking where Molly was and when she'd come back. Pretty sure he didn't even miss me with all the love, attention and spoiling. Will definitely be using her again.”
“Schawna stayed wtih our animals at the house for 5 days. She checked in with us to let them know they were doing well and sent us pictures with them as well. Our flight arrived late so we told her she could leave and the dogs would be okay so we didn’t get to chat with her before she parted, but we came home and were pleasantly surprised to see the house was also very clean, it even looked cleaner than when we left. We would definitely use Schawna again to take care of our 2 dogs, 2 cats, and home.”

Laikin T.
“Laikin is so great with Dogs. She has experience, knows what questions to ask, wants to be prepared, and be familiar with the dogs care/routines. I’ve had many dog sitters over the years and none that took the time to come over/ask the questions most wouldn’t think of. We always leave a detailed description of what they need/do. But she wanted to come over as well. That really impressed me. While we were on vacation she sent us pictures & videos of our babies (that is really big for us as we love to get them-my husband asks on the regular if I’ve gotten any) She’s organized, mature, and love animals. She has a big heart for them and even helps foster puppies for our local humane society. She loves walking them, taking them to the dog park, and anything else the pups may love to do. I can’t wait for her to watch our babies again! I recommend Laikin for anything you may need. XoXo”
Jenna T.
“Jenna is one of the biggest animal lovers I know. She is very passionate about animals and treats every animal I’ve seen her around as if they are her own. She is very punctual and considerate of others and the first person I would call to take care of my dogs when needed. You will not regret hiring her and she will be a positive addition to your dogs life.”
