“Haley was amazing! Our dog had a great time and came home calm and happy. Haley had great communication and sent so many wonderful pictures and videos. We felt very comfortable with the experience and would not hesitate to leave our baby with her again 😊”


About: My experience with animals is over 15 years. From walking/ feeding and watering/ playing fetch/ to giving medicine when needed. Your babies from young to old are given the best in my care. I'm a stay at home mom so I have plenty of time to care for your babies! The town I live is small and quiet so your pup should be extra cozy here. I have a cozy shaded (with plenty of room to move about) pen where your pup will stay when I'm not supervising them in the big fenced yard or talking walks.

About: I've grown up with many pets. I now own a mini aussie that needs a friend. Your dog will get treated like family. I have a nice privacy fenced back yard with plenty of room to run. I have a medium size dog door so if your dog can fit then they will be able to go out as much as it wants. I will only have one or two dogs at a time so your dog will get to enjoy it's time without to many pets around. I work during the week so they either will need to be crate trained or house trained. Weekends I'm either around the house where they can get a lot of attention. All pets must be house to date with shots including Bordetella, and flea/ tick medicine. It is just me here so your pet will have special treatment.


“My shorthaired pointer named Riot is exactly that..a riot. When I picked him up I saw something I have never seen from another sitter...a tired dog! He was obviously taken very well care of and kept busy the whole time. I couldn't be happier with his stay at their home and it made going on vacation easy because I knew he was in excellent hands. Thank you so much! Emi-Jo and Riot”

About: Hello! My name is Danyale. I have grew up around animals my whole life and have continued to care and love them more as we have been blessed to have a small homestead. I take time to learn about all the animals we have cared for. We live in a very secluded area. No road near our home. We love free range for our animals. We live on 11 acres with a pond. I am currently working full time but if I could do this full time it would be a dream. I would love to do what I love and make money. In our home we have 2 dogs and a cat. We also have a couple of lizards. Our dogs are inside and outside. They even have there own couch! 😆 our cat is an inside cat and I have a room that has all his climbing toys, food, water, and litter box.
