“Kyla was able to take my Goldens in last minute and very flexible with drop off and pickup times. My guys loved it so much they didn’t want to leave! I will be making Kyla my preferred pet sitter!”

“What a wonderful experience for my 8 month old bernedoodle puppy! Julie has the perfect setup for dogs. Her fenced in yard gives lots of space for her 2 dogs plus other visiting dogs. The 3 of them were chasing and playing right away. Julie made sure my puppy, Tillie, had plenty of water and food which was great because she Tillie was burning up energy. She gave Tillie so much love as well as belly rubs and even brushing her. I highly recommend Julie and will be using her the next time I visit my sister in Burlington! Thanks for all the love you gave to Tillie!”

“Shelley was amazing! She sent pictures often, made sure my dog was comfortable and was very accommodating. If I’m in the area again I’ll leave my pup with Shelley!”

“Lakin was amazing at letting us know how our little fur baby was coping away from home. She sent us picture and videos and always responded pretty quickly to any message we sent. Our booking was last minute and we are very grateful that Lakin was able to accommodate for us. Would book again!!”

About: I have 3 dogs of my own, they go places with me and lots of walks. I am polite, trustworthy, hard working, caring, and reliable. I am by myself caring for your pet. I am available all evening, morning, and weekends. I can clean cat pans, pick up dog feces, take.dogs for walks, clean and play with pets. I have a big house, lots of space, and a fenced in yard. I have multiple water fountains and keep a schedule. Animals are aloud on the furniture and to play and be themselves.
About: For most of my life, I grew up on a farm full of a variety of animals. We owned chickens, cows, pigs, goats, ducks, geese, horses, and sheep. On top of that, we also kept many dogs and cats around too. Due to this, I grew up loving all my animal companions and practicing the best ways to care for our furry friends. I now live in an apartment with just my two cats but take with me my past experience of two years working at a vet clinic as a ward attendant, participating in dog walking, administering medications, and other general animal care. Currently, I am looking for ways to fill my free time with a little extra animal love, as I am someone who likes to always be busy doing something for others. With my current job as a teacher, my schedule is pretty strict, unfortunately. However, my evening availability can be very flexible. I could be available from 5 pm to 10 pm during the weekdays and then free all day during weekends. Therefore, if you need my help with your furry family member, I would be glad for you to use my low-priced services offered ranging from walks to house sitting to drop-in visits! I am a teacher and will be working every weekday from 7 AM to 4 PM. Expect that availability for me will change during winter and summer breaks. In my home, I have two cats that are experienced with dogs and other cats. We have multiple rooms so if a door needs to be shut for an animal's privacy while in my care, that can be done.
“I was extremely about leaving my super energetic pointer puppy while we went out of town but it turned out great! He got excellent care and looked very content in every picture I received.”

About: I grew up on a farm, so I've always been surrounded by animals and have developed a natural ability to care for them. This experience has taught me patience, responsibility, and a strong understanding of animal behavior. I’m not only comfortable with dogs of all ages but also have experience handling puppies and providing senior dog care. I work from home, which allows me to give your pet my full attention throughout the day. With a flexible schedule, I'll be the one taking care of your pet personally, ensuring they get plenty of walks, playtime, and cuddles. We have a dog at home and an unfenced yard, but we're just one block away from a dog park, so your pet will have plenty of opportunities for outdoor play and exercise. If needed, we can crate our dog to ensure safety and comfort during your pet's visit. We always prioritize the well-being of all pets in our care and will adjust our home environment as needed to meet your pet's needs.
“I was so nervous to leave my baby girl, Ginger, with a stranger for a week. However, Jacob was great. His dog was so friendly and he and Ginger got along wonderfully. I got updates and pictures. Jacob always returned my messages when I was feeling worried or guilty. When we picked Ginger up, she was excited to get back home, but I could tell she missed Jacob and R. too. I hope I don't need a dog care provider in the future, but if I do, I will be messaging Jacob.”
