“Cheyenne and her family were AWESOME!!!! I’ve used her twice so far for boarding services while on out of town trips. My pup was a little uncomfortable a first but Cheyenne and her family quickly made him feel at home. He was acclimated in about a day. He also had an injury on his paw that required medication and a little extra attention. She took good care of my guy and made sure he was comfortable and his activity was limited as requested. He now recognizes her street and is excited to get to her home when we pull up. I will definitely be using Cheyenne for future services. Highly Recommend!!”
“Ashley was so conscious and attentive to both our concerns about leaving our pup and making certain Red was happy and safe. She is terrific. We would not hesitate calling on her again.”
“Sally is great with dogs and has a lovely area to walk them! My dogs are rarely away from me and they were well taken care of. Sally was flexible with my pick up time after my plane was delayed. I highly recommend her.”
“For leaving our dogs with a sitter for the first time I was nervous, but they were well taken care of, and a lot of fun with Tayler and her family! I was sent updates and pictures throughout the week. Thank you Tayler and family for taking such good care of our fur babies”
About: I have been fostering for almost 10 years and have taken care of cats, dogs and horses growing up my whole life. I am familiar with giving meds and special needs for dogs and cats as well. I am working part time to spend more time with my kids and dogs and my kids also love new companions we take in and care for. I have just been wanting to care for more animals in my area. I have a fenced in yard and 2 dobermans and a doberdoodle. They are all dog and kid friendly. My dogs are vetted and up to date on everything. My dobermans are the reason I started fostering as they love new friends! My doberdoodle was my foster fail that I love dearly. I do have a couple kennels but if your dog does better with no kennel I do that as well!
“Thank you so very, very much. Dorothy went beyond the call of duty in taking great care of my puppy and giving I'm plenty of exercise and fresh air. He slept most alleviating after picking him up! Ha!”
“Jordan is very friendly and super responsive to messages; her dogs are adorable, too. She treated our pup as her own. She was also super accommodating as our dog needs medication four times a day and has crazy feeding times due to my husband's work schedule, and she had no problem with that. She was also willing to keep our dog even though she has high anxiety, and Daisy appeared to be very calm and relaxed in the photos Jordan sent. The fenced in yard is also reassuring. I highly recommend Jordan!”
“Kendra was awesome!!! I can definitely tell my Lucia was comfortable and not stressed. My dog was clean, her crate was clean and Kendra provided just enough communication when we were gone.”
“Stephanie was great at communicating and was very flexible. We were traveling and needed someone last minute and she was very accommodating. She sent daily photos which was nice. I would recommend.”
“Ashley was great! I was in TC for part one of a family trip and Ashley provided a safe fun spot for Poppy to stay. She was communicative during Poppy's stay sending detailed updates and photos. It was my first time boarding Poppy and Ashley took great care of her!”
“Peter was very professional, sent us pictures and took care of our dog. When we picked her up, she was a very happy dog to come back in our arms. He must’ve done something right, HAHA.”
“My family had Erica watch our puppy Oliver while we went on vacation. She did an absolutely amazing job with him. He got to play with her two dogs and go on lots of walks during the day. Unexpectedly she found a tick on him and took him into the vet to get him checked out. She went above and beyond to make sure Oliver had a fun and safe time. My dad was worried sick about leaving his puppy with a stranger, but Erica sent him multiple pictures throughout the day, and I think that's the only reason we didn't turn back for Oliver. I would recommend Erica to anyone that needs their dog to be boarded for any length of time and we will be booking her again.”
“We are st thankful that we found Jennifer! Our dog Zac was very comfortable with her and his new buddy, Willow. Jennifer was so accommodating to all of Zac’s habits and routines and she sent texts and photo updates, which eased our anxiety:) We won’t hesitate to use Jennifer again!”
About: I’ve taken Care of animals for about 20 years now. I’ve been dog sitting for 7 years privately for my neighbor and her two dogs. I love all animals and tend to spoil them rotten! We just love snuggling and playing with animals. Just let me know when, where and how often! Im available before during and after work. Message me and we can make a plan! Thanks! I’ve been taking care of my neighbors dogs at her home for about 7 years now. One of her dogs is special needs as well. I do as she tells me. My home is no different. Your pets will receive lots of love and attention. I have plenty of space outdoors as well.
“Jessica was awesome! Never once did we question our decision or leaving our pups with her. She maintained great communication throughout. Her large fenced in yard was perfect for our high energy pups!”
“Christine and Troy were absolutely wonderful with our dogs. They communicated clearly and consistently and it was obvious that they cared deeply about the comfort and safety of our dogs. They gave them heaps and love and attention and let them roam throughout their warm and welcoming home. They catered to the dogs' quirks and individual wants and needs. I would be thrilled to have Christine and Troy take care of our older dogs again.”

Megan G.
“Megan loves animals more than anyone I have witnessed. She took such amazing care of my dog whenever I went on trips. And let me tell you my dog isn't easy to handle, with her energetic, anxiety ridden self, but she loved her and gave her so many cuddles and treats. Her dogs are so used to other dogs from her fostering dogs in the past. Those dogs welcomed mine with open arms. She had so much fun playing with them in her huge fenced in yard. She's one of the few people I would honestly trust watching my animals, she even watched our bearded dragon for us! 💗”
