“Monai was great and receptive when I texted with questions about how kelso was doing. I got him back happy and safe, I’d use her services again for sure”

“I got lots of awesome pictures and I could tell pup was having a great time. This makes it much easier for me to go out of town, knowing my boy is well taken care of. Thank you!”

About: I've had both big dogs and cats in my life. I love meeting the animal at whatever level they're at. Comfort (whether playful, peaceful, or both) is most important. I'm an avid runner, so long walks and energetic playtimes are fun for me. I love to be outside, especially with pets. For playful pups, I love playing fetch or tug of war! I have a cat currently who is leash trained and loves to hike. I have 2 years experience fostering senior dogs and 1 with a senior cat, so I'm aware of their unique challenges. I am a graduate student, so my schedule is rather flexible. I should be able to fit most demands, especially throughout working hours. I'm available for long term care as well. I have a large home, no fence, but plenty of space to walk around in. Inside, there is plenty of space for playtimes, nap times, etc. At your house, I will follow whatever directions you think best.

“We are so happy with Danielle. Both my husband and I had engagements and needed to have a puppy sitter for our new rescue pup. After a brief search we found Danielle and her service. Our puppy was well taken care of and extremely well taken care of. We will absolutely be calling on her again!!”

About: I quickly became a dog mom when my partner moved into my house with his 5 year old dog Sampson. I fell in love with our daily walks in the field behind our house, as well as having something to take care of in the house. Sampson listens, he is a dog I can walk off leash and the best cuddle buddy. Because of his good nature I soon found myself growing our family by the addition of two puppies. Hank was our first pup - he is a Great pyreenes mixed with a Bernese Mountain Dog. Think fluffy, slobbery, and 140 pounds. I wasn't sure how a big dog and myself would get along but I found his size comforting. Stella was a dog we failed at fostering. She is a smaller terrier mix and is teaching me the true purpose of crates and leashes. I learn every day how to be better for my dogs. It is chaotic, messy and unpredictable living with three dogs but I wouldn't change it for anything. I am by no means a perfect dog owner but I understand the complexities and uniqueness of each dog and their personalities. I rely on being consistent and predictable for my dogs so they continue to trust me to take care of them. Their health and happiness is my priority. I am a school teacher. When school is in session I am free after 5pm. When we are on break for holidays or summer, I am free anytime. At my house, I don't have a fenced in yard but we have over 20 acres to walk. I am comfortable walking dogs on a leash. I have a crate for a medium to small sized dog and an outdoor "doggio" for warmer days or if a furry friend wants some time outdoors relaxing. I have three dogs, one of which is a very large and enjoys rough housing with other dogs. We have lots of toys and a house that that continues to become dog proof. We let our dogs on the couches and they have a large living room to play in.

About: I have had pets my whole life. I have had many dogs and some cats as well. I can train puppies, have lots of patience with them, and can love on them all day long. I have 2 dogs. Someone is always home, so pups are never unattended. We have a 11 year old daughter as well who loves animals and loves to help care for them. We have 3 acres of land, and a log home. We have a cable to hook up dogs who like to wander, but can allow dogs to run loose if they are well trained.
7. Taylor G.
“Taylor was kind to my dog. She shared updates with me, so I was sure that everything goes well during long my holidays.It was very easy to communicate and agree on the details, I can highly recommend Taylor.”
8. Jessica L.
“I had a great experience with Jessica with my pups! Prior to booking, she was very responsive and even was open to a meet and greet with my pups and hers. During the stay, she sent photos and provided updates! I can always tell if my pups had a good stay with a sitter based on how they act when I pick them up. They both appeared calm and happy and one of them seemed to want to stay and play! I will definitely be using Jessica's service again!”
9. Karter G.
About: I’ve had pets my whole life. I love hanging out with them, taking them to parks and on walks, and making sure they are happy and well cared for. I have a day job, but my time after is free. I can always make sure I’m available whenever I’m needed. I’m usually always available on the weekends. I take care of pets better than most humans should be treated. They are most peoples fur-babies! Well fed and plenty of time for play with treats and toys! We don’t deserve animals.
