“Ciara was so nice! So what communicative and our dog clearly loved her in her family. I thought extremely comfortable leaving her there. It was a very last minute booking and she was so kind and able to work with me. We will 100% be using her again.”


“John, Rachel and their entire family are incredible! This is our second time using them, and our second time not having to worry about leaving out babies while we go out of town. It’s that peace of mind that makes all the difference. I highly recommend them!”


“As always, he was thrilled to be at her house. The sad thing is, he gets a little depressed when we get home because he misses all the activity there, but he's usually over it in a day or two. So luck to have found Naji!”


“Bridget was wonderful! She took great care of my dog and spoiled her just like I would. She sent pictures and kept me up to date on my dogs stay. I will certainly be rebooking the next time we go out of town!”


“Jacqueline and her family were absolutely wonderful. I have a senior dog and a puppy they were very well cared for and I had no worries whatsoever. She went above and beyond.”


“Mackenzie was wonderful with our high energy pup! We had a cancellation last minute, and she was very willing to take him in with such short notice. We will definitely be using her again!”


“We are so thankful Laurie was able to take in Lola when our original plans fell through. She sent us daily updates about how she was doing and took extra care when Lola was having a hard time adjusting. I can tell our girl enjoyed her own vacation while we were on ours and it relieved a lot of our initial anxiety about leaving her behind. Thank you Laurie!!”


“Rachel was amazing! She was very communicative and was graciously flexible with my travel schedule. The dogs loved her and had an amazing time! Will definitely use her again in the future. No concerns whatsoever.”



“Catherine took great care of our puppy and her pups are the sweetest! She made sure our pup got to meet her and her dogs in advance and our pup was excited to go stay which is great since she’s a little shy. We’ll definitely have Mabel go stay again!”


“Amanda provided such a wonderful home away from home for our dog, Libby, that we were almost nervous she wouldn't want to come home! She was beyond amazing, both in taking care of the dog and us as we fretted over leaving Libby for such a long time. Amanda provided several updates a day along with pictures. We could not be happier with how she took care of our dog and will never look anywhere else for help. Libby made strong bonds that I'm certain are reciprocated so I know she'll be happy to go back when we need a dog sitter in the future. Amanda deserves 10 stars!!!! 🤩”


“I love this couple. They always take such good care of my baby Brownie ! All the instructions for my baby they always follow everything! Communication is great and sending pictures is great. I have no worries. I rearranged my trip this last weekend so this couple could be my care giver for my baby. This is our 2nd time with RyLeigh and Zachary!”


“Lona & Alan took phenomenal care of our precious goldendoodle! They loved her like she was their own and really made sure they were respectful of our wishes for our dog’s care. I loved getting pictures and videos of our pup throughout her stay and she was clearly happy and well loved! My only concern with them watching our dog is if my dog would want to come with me after such an amazing time 😂 (which she did thankfully 😁). They were amazing to our dog and very trustworthy! Amazing experience ❤️”


About: I have two years of veterinary assistant experience as well as the experience of owning my own pets. I have assisted in pre-and post operative care as well as recovery. I also have experience with day to day activities such as administering medications, sublax injections, feeding schedules, and exercise. I am currently self employed and I own 6 pets! My schedule is VERY flexible and allows for adequate animal care required for walks or boarding! Providing a safe and reliable environment is my baseline for working with your furbabies. Pets are family and I understand the love and compassion we have for our furry friends. For boarding, we have a doggie door that leads to a fenced in backyard. We manually feed twice a day with Purina Pro. If you would like different food, please provide. Feeding schedules for boarding is able to be altered according to your dog’s needs. We do have a XL dog crate as well if you want them crated at night or when I am not home. I am home majority of the day and only leave for errands. However, our dogs do not need to be crated and cats have access to the doggie door 100% of the time and they sleep with us so if you allow that, they will be free rein indoors at night! I do take my dogs on walks daily so if you would like your dogs to also go on daily walks while being boarded, just let me know—no extra charge since I’m already walking my babies! Meet and Greets for Boarding will be conducted at my house so you can see where your doggie will be staying! For Pet Sitting, I find it best to work around your specific situations and needs! We can discuss at meet and greet on rules for household and feeding schedules, any allergies, etc. Meet and Greets for pet sitting are conducted at your place of residence to ensure a safe and comfortable environment for meeting your furbabies. It also allows you to show me where you store food, toys, treats, etc.
