“Our fur kids always love Eliza’s visits. She takes the BEST care of them and our home while we are away and takes special care of our medical special needs Frenchie as though he were her own. Truly cannot recommend her highly enough. She’s a true professional!”

“Jessi was the greatest dog sitter we have had through this app! Seriously an amazing kind soul and person. She sent us pictures the whole time! My dogs were so happy when I got home, my house was cleaned, and she even changed my wax cubes!! One of my dogs came from a rough home, and doesn’t take easily to strangers, but she worked to win him over and they became best buds! Will definitely use her for all future trips!!”


“Dino was wonderful with our dogs and communication with us. Having never had anyone stay overnight with our dogs, Dino helped put our mind at ease, updating us multiple times through the day with pictures and videos Our dogs had a blast and were very well taken care of. Dino was very polite, punctual and our dogs have a new friend. We will definitely look for Dino for any future visits!”

“Katlynn was so great with our dogs. We added a puppy to our family last minute and she embraced it head on! Our dogs loved her and even watched her leave. I would trust her with my dogs any day of the week! She should be your go-to-gal for this area!”

About: Hi! My names is Maddie. I have been taking care of dogs since I was 13 years old. My love for dogs is outstanding and I would love a chance to show you. At the moment I have a free flex schedule due to the fact, I recently moved and do not have a job. I would love to help anyone out who ever needs it I have 5 dogs of my own they are my babies and I can do whatever you need to make you feel comfortable with leaving your fur babies with us
About: Hiii I am stay at home dog mom. I wanted to venture out and take care of other dogs. I have taken care of both of my dogs since they were 6 weeks old. I have had to administer their own medication especially the very high energy lab. I have taken care of my workers and neighbors dogs before and thought why not venture out to other dogs owners who need help with their super pups :) I have a very flexible schedule. I am available pretty much all the time. I have a reading hobby but that would never hinder my schedule! My dogs are walked every day. They are pretty independent and are not high maintenance. I live in an apartment so they get walks outside and play time in the dog park near the apartment

“Kylie was absolutely amazing with our dogs! She was able to give them their anxiety medication and actually spend a lot of time with them to make sure they were doing good! She sent lots of pictures and updates of their weekend, and followed all care instructions exactly. Letting someone into your home to care for your dogs is nerve wracking and stressful, but Kylie made it so easy for us!! We will definitely ask her to come back in the future!”

About: We have three dogs who are more spoiled than our children. We dont like people, but we love animals 🤣. We love walking and playing, and so do our pups! Our babies are spoiled rotten and we can't help it. Our pups have their own doggie pool that they can use any time in the summer. We have tons of toys and one of our favorite things to do is just be home with them and de stress. We sometimes go to the dog park or take walks on the Black River Trail, too! We care for our own fur babies every day, having extra in the house is just an added bonus. Our animals are loved all day long, and we promise to deliver the same to yours. We have a large fully fenced in yard in a rural area, so we have lots of room for running! Our pups go in and out as often as they want. We do allow pets on the furniture, always! ***FOR FULL TRANSPARENCY *** We do require all dogs who are boarding in our home to eat and sleep in a crate, as well as be in their crate if we need to leave the house for any reason. This is strictly for safety reasons to keep all dogs and our children safe. We understand that not everyone is a fan of crating their dog, and we would never do so without consent. This is non negotiable. If you feel strongly your dog does not require needed a crate please reach out to me and we can talk as I do make very rare exceptions. If your pup shows behavioral issues that make it difficult to maintain safety, such as biting or excessive aggressiveness, we will add on an extra charge to the booking. This is almost never an issue, and we are able to separate dogs as needed. When staying in our home, your pups safety is always our number one priority.
About: I’ve always been around animals from a young age, many tend to gravitate towards me. Caring for them is something I’ve always loved to do. I work full time but I’m available anytime after 3:30 pm on weekdays and fully available on weekends as I get those off. I’ll have more availability during the summer months I will always provide timely bathroom breaks and ample amounts of exercise. I will also stick to any routine that you have your pets on.
About: I’m experienced with dogs, cats, rabbits, chickens and ducks, horses and many other fur and feathered friends. Whether you need me to pop in for walks or stay at your place, I’m ready for walks, play, reenforcing training, and giving medications to your beloved pets. I work remote, so I can be available for visits with a flexible schedule or work from your place to ensure your animals get the attention they need. I can visit or stay depending on your pet care needs. If I am staying in your home to care for the pets, I will need wifi/internet access.
“An absolutely exceptional dog sitter! Our pup had an incredible time and received exceptional care. The frequent photo updates were delightful and highlighted the devoted attention and affection given to our furry friend. Organizing playtime for our pup with a furry companion was an absolute delight. Since our little girl adores playtime with other pups and is the only one at home, this was a special treat, especially with the weather getting colder. It truly brightened her day to have this social time. Our furry one returned home overwhelmingly happy and pleasantly exhausted from all the excitement. This experience was truly outstanding and highly recommended for anyone seeking top-tier care for their beloved pet! Additionally, the sitter accommodated our last-minute request and went above and beyond in ensuring our puppy's comfort, resulting in her increased happiness. We're undoubtedly returning clients; my little Autumn is thrilled, and that alone brings me immense joy. This woman is an absolute gem—professional, kind-hearted, and highly recommended! A solid 10/10!”

About: From young age I've been responsible for many types of animals. I have experience with dogs and puppies, cats and kittens, cows and calfs, horses, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, iguana, fish, frogs, turtles, salamanders, etc. I currently have one medium dog who lost his litter mate in December 2023. I'm a stay at home dog Mom. We both have lots of energy for walks and hikes. I live on a 1 mile dirt, seasonal, dead end road with lake frontage and massive yard for playing hide and seek in the trees and hunting squirrels. My dog is dog friendly, loves playmates. (No jealousy). In your home care would be provided to your pets as we would discuss with a meet & greet.
About: I have a 13 year old shitzu yorkie who has been with me since I was 9 and I trained him myself. I have a roomy place with lots of places for individual areas. I currently am taking a break from work and have plenty of time to care for your furry friend as needed! Full time availability and plants of room in my schedule for any hour care. I have a dog who can keep your furry friend company but have enough room to separate them if your dog or cat likes their own space!

Jordan took great care of our pups. One of our dogs is afraid of thunder and after speaking with us she was able to calm him down. She was great at communicating and sent several pictures throughout the weekend. She did a great job and hopefully she can help us out in the future.

She sent lots of pictures and updates of their weekend, and followed all care instructions exactly.
