“Adrianne was great! She took great care of my Boomer and attended to all his needs. He had plenty of playtime and she even took him for walks. I also appreciate that she sent me plenty of pictures for his stay.”


“Virginia met us at a local park so we could introduce our shepherd to her before her stay. We talked for almost an hour.... it was wonderful and Virginia is amazing with people as well as dogs. She sent us pictures of our Maggie while we were away to keep us updated on how she was doing. I definitely would use Virginia again in the future and recommend her to anyone needing a loving caretaker for their pet when they are away.”

About: I’ve been a dog owner and foster parent my whole life. I’ve trained and owned all kinds of dogs from Jack Russels and Pomeranians to Great Danes and Golden Doodles. The relationships I build with dogs are enriching and rewarding. The innocence and desire to just be themselves is what I love about animals. I treat my new dog friends like family and I believe they prosper in a relationship that promotes their inner dog as well as setting boundaries that help the human/canine relationship prosper. I embrace the belief of calm assertive dominance and find it that dogs seem to find peace in me being in that role. I am a stay at home parent whose availability is an asset that I utilize for the sake of the animals I care for. I hope to one day befriend your best friend. I’m a stay at home father of 10 and 12 yr old boys. I raise 2 dogs, 2 cats, and 24 chickens. I have lots of flexibility to ensure the care needed for you pet. I love to spend time with animals in the environment they feel most comfortable. With my flexible schedule and the abundance of land on my property and in my locale, I know I can fit the needs of your furry friend.

“Katia was so awesome and took care of my husky Ethel for 5 days while I was out of town. She came home so happy and exhausted. 10/10 She accommodate us last minute which was super sweet of her.”


“Gerard takes such good care of our dog Emmett. He treats and cares for him as if he was his own. We couldn’t ask for a better person to trust and care for our lab. Highly recommended!”


“John is a great sitter. His home is clean and comfortable with fresh water always available for my dog. His dog Shaggy is adorable and very sweet tempered and got along great with my Kyda. He has a backyard where dogs can get some exercise and sunshine. He always responded quickly to messages and even sent me a picture of how well my girl was doing. My dog can be shy and doesn't always eat the first night in a new place. I was happy and impressed that she ate her normal meal because John and Shaggy made her feel comfortable. I highly recomend John as a sitter!”
