“Very happy I booked with Marisol! I needed a drop-in with only a couple of days notice, and I was nervous about me not having time to do a meet and greet with my nervous pup. She did a great job letting Argos warm up to her, making sure he got some pets and love, and taking him out twice per visit to ensure he did all his business! She was very quick to respond, on-time, and provided a thorough report card. This anxious dog mom is very happy. ☺️”


“I’m so glad we found Kalob. He is probably the best sitter we have ever had. His love for animals is genuine and all our pups loved him and took to him instantly. The updates and photos were amazing. I would welcome any chance to have Kalob take care of our babies in the future.”


“Have had absolutely wonderful experiences with Emma! She is reliable, communicative, and treats my dogs like her own. Always come home to happy pups and peace of mind, I couldn’t ask for more! Highly recommend! 🐾”


About: I have had animals my entire life! Mostly dogs that have lived well into their teens, but also cats. Most recently I had my dog Bella for over 12 years and the last 3 we traveled the country try between Seattle and Miami by car. She unfortunately passed due to cancer and not ready to own an animal, but still love having them around . I am great at playing with animals to keep them engaged and teaching commands. I also can accommodate animals to their needs if they need medicine or special assistance. I work from home for an agency based in Canada. This means that your animal wouldn’t need to be locked up all day if they stay at my house my flexible schedule also also allows me to add walks in the day and play time so your dog isn’t in a crate all day. I also have a yard big enough for throwing sticks for added fun! I do have a fenced in yard that would allow for your dog to run around. I also wouldn’t mind going to someone’s house if I needed to as well as I am mobile.

“Kayla sent daily updates with photos and our shy girl warmed up to her quickly. She was kind and easy to work with. I felt confident that my cats were in good hands while I was away.”


“Alaina was fabulous! I am so so lucky we found her! Our cat needs medication, including an injection, twice daily. This can be intimidating to take on, but Alaina was so willing to learn and did great with them! Even when it took a little longer than expected she was patient, stuck to it, and persevered. I am so happy that we have her available to us going forward and have already rebooked for next month!”


About: As cliche as it sounds, taking care of pets isn’t just something I do; it’s who I am. Since I was little, I’ve been surrounded by animals of all kinds – from snakes, hamsters, guinea pigs, chickens, and dogs of all sizes, to fish and cats, including elderly pets.🐶🐍🐰🐢🐱 I’ve been there for potty training, administering medication, grooming, scheduled feedings, and maintaining teeth hygiene. To me, animals are pure and down-to-earth, and deserve the same respect ❤️ I don’t do this just for the money – I do it because I genuinely care about animals. I’ve heard too many sad stories about boarding pets somewhere, not getting the care they deserve, and the excessive costs involved, and I want to change that. This home is as much theirs as it is mine. I offer a six-foot fully gated yard, big enough for several animals to bask in the sun or play with toys.🌤️ I have several dog beds (and furniture) with enough space to care for your babies. Even the smaller critters or pets that aren’t cats and dogs! I recently used Rover myself and was initially skeptical, worried, and just overall leery about the situation. 😅But it turned out to be a wonderful experience, and now I want others to have the same peace of mind and enjoyment. I want pet owners to feel confident that their animals are in good hands so they can truly relax and enjoy their own vacation, knowing their pets are having a great time too.☺️ And if I could, I’d give myself five out of five stars, rated highly by Forbes ⭐️for providing top notch safety and security to help ease your pet’s separation from you while you’re away. Don’t hesitate to text me on any questions, concerns, or just to chat about your pets. It’s a big decision to make who you can trust your animals with, and I am happy to help 🫶 The question is how do I fit pet care into my routine- but I don’t “fit it” into my routine. I follow my animals routine, and what they need to be their best self. I am make it a priority on managing potty breaks, feedings, treats, and everything in between. It especially helps that I am home most of my days, and wouldn’t mind more company ☺️ It’s not that I just want to “provide care.” I feel like anyone could do that, but it’s more of bonding with that animal. It’s learning their needs, routine, and having patience with them. My goal is for them to not view me as a complete stranger, and more as a good friend to have 💕With that being said- I would love to take your dog on a walk, feed them, grooming, playing, and giving all the love they deserve! If there is good communication and understanding, I would be happy to help with proper medication or medical needs as well 🩷

About: Tim and I are dog and cat lovers. We have had one pet or another all of our lives. We currently have a Chocolate Lab. I take my dog on frequent walks and play with him constantly. We would be available to care for your precious pet on Friday after 5:00 pm and Saturday nights into Sunday evening only at this time. We can do drop offs starting at 5:30 pm on Friday Night and can watch your pet through Sunday evening until 9:00 PM. If necessary we can arrange early morning pick up on Monday morning. I can take your pet on one or more daily walks during their stay. If your pet needs additional exercise I have a large fenced yard for them to run and play. As far as skills, I am able to administer oral medications to your pet if needed. Your precious pet would receive all kinds of love and attention. I am available for boarding and drop in visits Friday after 5:00 pm and on weekends through Sunday. I can arrange for early morning pickup on Monday if needed. I have a fenced in yard and a very energetic dog who will keep your fur baby company. I also have a walking trail near by where we can go for walks.

“Mikaela had stepped in and helped me with letting my two dogs out when I lost my regular person. We had a meet and greet at the dog park before the service began and another one at the house. She is very responsible and reliable, plus the pups love her.”


About: I’ve taken care of three small dogs before such as a Corgi and two Chihuahuas, and the job consisted of me walking, cleaning, and playing with them! I also have a german Shepard Malinois and i used to have a Basset Hound/Pitbull mix! I also own two adult cats. I’m currently a student athlete at University of Nebraska Omaha, so i’ll have plenty of time to take care of pets and walk dogs as needed! I used to work at Scooters, but now I am focusing more on working with animals as I have more time and am focusing on a career path in the veterinary field! In my home, my dog and two cats get plenty of attention and love as needed! I make sure to go on daily walks with my dog and make sure that she is getting fed, brushed, and played with! I also make sure to give attention to my two cats as well, like brushing them, playing with them and feeding them!

“Highly recommend Megan! She was kind and patient with my shy cats, took time to meet me beforehand, and made me feel completely comfortable. I’ll definitely book her again!”


About: My love of animals led me to start volunteering at a veterinarian‘s office giving baths and cleaning cages when I was 15. I have fostered dogs (of all ages, sizes and breeds) and cats (mostly kittens) for animal rescues. I volunteered at a large animal rescue helping with horses, goats, donkeys, and cows. I have a passion for animals! Personally, I have had Guinea pigs, chickens, cats, dogs, fish, and a horse. Currently I have a pug, a cat, and a very lazy guinea pig. I have a nice big fenced in backyard for off leash playtime and a good neighborhood/trails for longer walks. I have two children who have grown up around all manner of animals and enjoy interacting and playing with dogs and cats in particular. I work a 8-5 job Monday through Thursday. Fridays are a short day for me so I’m able to take boarders starting Thursday evenings. Friday they’d be alone for 6 hours at the longest. Saturday and Sunday they would only be left for a couple hours at the most as I am home during the weekends. I have a large fenced yard with a tall fence. My cat is acclimated to dogs and does well with other cats. My kids have always had animals in their life and know how to interact with new animals appropriately.

About: I have taken care of animals since i was a little kid. I grew up on a farm so have been around animals my whole life. Now as I have gotten older, I am a certified dog mom :) I currently have 2 labs of my own, Johnny and June. We love being outside and running off energy. This could include playing in the big fenced in back yard, going to the dog park or even swimming out at the lake. Since I have no children of my own, my dogs are my children and are treated as such. They pretty much rule the house and what they want usually goes. They have more toys than they know what to do with and know by just giving me the puppy eyes they can get a treat. They love having their furry friends come over to play or to spend the night. I do have experience in caring for dogs from puppies all the way up to senior age. My last lab was 13 years old when he passed away last summer and needed a lot of extra care and patience to ensure that he was comfortable. I currently do work full-time but have a pretty flexible schedule. I am able to work from home at least 1 day a week and those days I am not at home, I am able to come home to give potty breaks and to run off some energy. While I am at work my dogs are in their kennels with lots of toys and their special blankets. They are both puppies still so free roam hasnt happened quite yet, despite our attempts. Too many things to get into and chew on while mom is gone :) On the weekends, 9 times out of 10 they are spent just being at home and spending time with the dogs. If it is nice we may go on little adventures but there is very little kennel time. I am looking to provide care for pets in my home. I have a very large fenced-in backyard that my two enjoy playing in. When I am home, most of their time is spent outside. I do have a bunch of toys for them to play with and also a baby pool to swim in when it is hot. When I am gone I do kennel my dogs and would prefer to be able to kennel visitors as well.

About: Currently, I have a good girl that we rescued. She is about 4 years old, 45lbs. Previously, I cared for my senior toothless blind dog for approximately 8 years. I have also dog-sat and provided drop in care for others off and on. My experience is primarily with medium sized dogs but I'm not hesitant to care for a larger or smaller dog. I have experience giving dogs oral and ear medication. I enjoy taking dogs in my care for walks mostly around their neighborhood. I don't mind cleaning up after "accidents". I am also a Mom to 4 human kids and understand how important furry family members are to all members of your family. Thank you for your consideration. I work for LPS so I have summers off. This is my "summer side hustle". I am looking forward to this while also taking my kids to the pool. I have a large fenced yard and my own very friendly dog to keep yours company. I also have 3 kids at home to help burn off energy. I can also crate your dog, if need be.

About: I’ve taken care of pets for families and friends throughout high school, and have been requested back often! My college schedule allows for me to provide frequent check-ins and spend time with my favorite animals while mine are farther away! I have cared for as many as six animals (dogs and cats) in a household at one time and am happy to work with animals of any size! Feel free to reach out with requests! My class schedule allows for me to have as many as four check-ins a day if needed, all at fairly spread out times! My schedule is also very regular during the day, so I can provide consistent timing for fur babies. I work a part-time job on the weekends, so this scheduling is not as consistent, but can often still provide care on weekends and can provide more specific information based on the week! I am very respectful of owner’ and pet boundaries, and treat all spaces and animals with cautious and friendly care! Many of my past clients and personal peers can speak on my trustworthiness.

“Jania is amazing!! She came in and loved on our kitties like they were her own! They worked to get our 2 often very shy kitties to come out of their shells! And within a few days they were playing and having fun with her and her kiddos! Family affair loving in our girls and I soooo appreciate everything they did for our kitties!! Janie did a wonderful job communicating and sending pictures! And if I had any concerns about the cats well being she put my mind at ease and helped calm my nerves!! Thank you Jania and family for loving our girls!! 🫶🏻 We will definitely ask for your help again for sure!!!”
