“Megan and her partner have taken such good care of my two pups twice now. They have been patient and understanding with the doggos’ behaviors and send the cutest picture updates of the shenanigans they get into! My dogs are hesitant to trust others and took to Megan and her partner right away and because of their patience and intentional approach to letting my dogs gets used to them. She is very communicative and sincere about loving on your animals while you are away which is greatly appreciated. All of that, plus, Megan being the absolute sweetest definitely helps make it easy to pick her to trust my fur babies with each time now. Highly recommend working with Megan.”
“We couldn't be happier with the care and attention given to our little senior guy, Buster. He is mostly blind and deaf and has diabetes. Not only did "Bj" have to make sure he didn't hurt himself, but she also had to administer insulin shots twice daily on a strict schedule. She was fantastic! She sent pictures and messages daily, which gave us peace of mind. I can't thank her and her husband enough for their kindness to him. We will definitely book with her again!”
About: I have a warm home and large yard. The animals will be walked/let out with a leash but still get plenty of play time inside and outside. I love to cuddle up, watch a show, read together or have sing time and play with their toys. I’m currently a stay home fur-momma to Cleo(dog) and Diego(cat) and love to play. I am new to town and look forward to meeting y’all. I have a large non fenced yard so pets are taken out on a leash. I can provide a small crate for 1 or 2 small pets.
“Deirdre’s house was amazing. It’s big and the dogs had plenty of room. Deirdre’s dog Callie is sweet and gets along with other pups. My dog was happy to have a friend! Deirdre is good with dogs, smart, and patient. We will definitely board with Deirdre again!”
About: I do have 1 German shepherd and a silver fox. Which are separated from the other animals. I have dog ramps and a doggy door. I try to always make sure your dog has fun and is loved and cared for to the fullest extent. I run a business with my husband and I have to be there for a couple hours and some family activities that I have to be present for and I also work part time at a vet office, will try and notify you ahead of time. *All new boarding and day care clients are subject to meet and greet at public dog park. My dog have their own room in the house, with a doggie door that leads to the fenced in back yard. If your dog isn’t friendly with other dogs, not a problem I can keep them apart. Mine is a senior and very friendly. My fox will never come in contact with your dog. I have a space set up by my back door where your dog will sleep at night, it’s just in my kitchen with some baby gates. If you want to provide a dog bed I will put it in there. All I can provide is blankets.
“Awesome! Took him for a walk - he was def spoiled. Would 100% do again!!! Thank u Olivia!”
About: I have watched all dogs from puppy to old senior sweethearts, my heart belongs to all animals. My boy loves friends and always ready for a visitor! I am currently a stay at home mother, I have all the free time in the world. I spend my free time with my baby and my fur babies!! I have a huge yard, not fenced in but safe and in a quiet neighborhood. All animals will be taken out on a leash and give PLENTY of time to go potty! I have a wonderful comfy couch that all animals are welcomed to cuddle with my family on!
About: I’m a medical professional who works from home and has had animals my entire life. For the first time in over 40 years, I find myself without a fur baby as my dear Ivy went across the rainbow bridge this March. I currently work from home full time (3 12 hr shifts) and would need to care for the animal in my home. I have a cat, she is 15 and very mild mannered/used to dogs and other cats. I have a fully fenced in yard and would keep the animal inside other than at walk/exercise times. Your fur baby would have my full attention at all times.

Paige T.
“You can trust Paige with your fur babies. I have a pit/boxer mix and over the coarse of the last year and a half she has helped me train him to do basic commands like sit, stay, fetch etc. Chase is with her while I’m at work and he could never be more happy to go to doggy daycare! Bane and Ivy are his best buds and Echo is a bonus!! I highly recommend Paige to watch anyone’s fur family member because she will treat them like her own.”
