My husband and I are first time dog parents and we were very nervous when dropping of our puppy for the first time, but Samantha was extremely helpful and walked us through the process. We take our puppy to Samantha 3 days a a week and since the first visit, we have seen a huge improvement in our puppy’s behavior and social skills. Samantha takes the time to work on training and socialization. She gives updates and photo’s throughout the day so we always know our puppy is happy and doing well. Any time we have had a special request, Samantha has been very helpful and flexible. We love taking our dogs puppy here and would highly recommend it!

Scott was incredibly friendly and easy to book with. They took such great care of our husky Bolt and sent plenty of cute pictures and updates on our boy. They easily accommodated our schedule and had the cutest little pug that our husky loved. Bolt enjoyed his time and got to play and make friends with some adorable dogs, he even got a yummy treat to take home with him at the end. If you are in need of a an excellent sitter who clearly loves dogs and enjoys taking care of them, then we can’t recommend Scott enough! We will definitely be booking again!

EXCELLENT!! I have two medium-small dogs that loved being with Amethyst and her dogs. Her backyard is huge, my boys got to run around all day, and her huskies are extremely easy to get along with. My boys were tired out by the end of the day which is not always the case with daycares. Also, I was sent photos, updates, and videos regularly. A pet owners dream to get regular updates. I HIGHLY recommend Amethyst as a dog caretaker!

Kristy was great. Cleo was super happy. We did pick up and drop off for daily daycare. She was very flexible which was great as I had to emergency take care of my mom in the hospital and had a very unpredictable schedule.

Where do I start, Jennifer is one of the most thoughtful, aware, compassionate, intuitive, patient and respectful human beings that I've ever met. Her love for animals is above and beyond. Jennifer has a special gift of tapping into each animal's individual characteristics/ personalities. She treats every animal as if it were her own and gives 110% when it comes to making sure they feel safe, loved, and fulfilled. I would highly recommend Jennifer to watch anyone's fur babies.

Not only does Janiya hang out with our babies, she gives them a bath with her own bathing/grooming set. We didn’t even ask, she offered and Cane and Tank truly love that extra attention.

Shaelea R. LOVES animals! If she sees one in need of care or abandoned, she will take it in. She saw a post of a man living in a car with 11 guinea pigs, needing a home for them, because he couldn't feed them anymore. She went and picked up all 11. She was able to safely rehome a few, she still has the rest, plus a few babies. Shaelea is very patient and caring. She has had a daycare business, in her home, for 9 years. The children and parents love her and feel safe leaving their children with her. Shaelea is very responsible and dependable. I highly recommend her!

Megan has watched my dogs so many times! There is no one I would trust more with my fur babies. She sends lots of pictures and is always very responsive. My dogs love playing in her backyard, it’s pretty big! She always treats them with so much love and care and my dogs hardly want to leave when I pick them up. She won’t let you down!

About: I’m the friend that’s relied on for training support. Puppy, Senior citizen, separation anxiety to adoptee experience; 10+ years. I’m passionate about learning new training techniques, implementing, and teaching. Every dog and companion deserves to understand each other. I have a 3 year old xl breed. Every day we focus on consistency and communication. I personally focus on the individual needs specific to my companions for the best life experience. From avid exercise to slow paced walks to muscle and joint massage and even reinforcing habits that create healthy confidence. I love paying attention to body language and understanding what it means for a companion as well as the companion’s caretaker and being able to provide comfort and training techniques based off of that. I can’t wait to be a certified dog trainer and help people understand there’s no such thing as a bad or impossible breed. It’s all about understanding, communication, implementation, and consistency. My goal is to keep your companions day as regular and consistent as possible. We will be on time for walks, they will get a lot of attention, I love animal body language so I’ll be able to build a connection with your companion based on their comfortability level, and I prefer to go by your rules. I understand no dogs on couches and I also fully support couch cuddles. It’s all about your companions happiness and well being along with providing ease and comfort for you and I will make sure to provide everything you need to maintain that. I chose a neighborhood great for king walks and close to downtown for easy access to greys lake. apartment that offered a dog park for comfortable potty breaks. And being right next to greys lake offers great adventures. I can crate if required, as I crate my 2 yr old for his safety. I encourage as many “rules” and your guidance to abide by to make your companions day to day as regular and enjoyable as possible. This is all about you guys and making your lives easy and comfortable.

Nichelle is an energetic person who cherishes animals. She is a great mom to her dog, Freckles. She has a special bond with dogs--they are drawn to her and seem to love her instantly. She is a very warm and fun person who instantly shares her heart with animals, whether it be her own dog or other dogs we may encounter while on a walk. It is honestly inspiring to watch the joyful way Nichelle interacts with animals. She delights in their individual personalities and enjoys doting on them. I was especially impressed at the careful attention she pays to her own dog's diet and care. She is also very meticulous--always making sure her dog is well groomed and of course, cleaned up after on walks. Nichelle's huge heart for animals makes her an ideal candidate to work with anyone's pet.
