“We went on a vacation for an extended time and June provided an excellent service so we could enjoy our time without any concerns. She sent us the pictures with brief details everyday and we could definitely tell that our dog has been in a good hand at the end of the stay. We definitely want to be a regular. Thank you!”



“Jessica was amazing and very accommodating with our skittish rescue dog. She was also very flexible with drop-off and pick-up times. We have booked her again!”


“Laura & Ryan were wonderful with our Mousse! She was happy when we picked her up. I’m sure she loved being outside running and playing in their big yard! They sent pictures to let us see how she was doing while she was there. Highly recommend!”


“I can't say enough good things here about Derek. He helped me out of a huge pinch when I needed a sitter the most. My other two sitters had plans due to the holiday and Derek was able to accomodate at the last minute. He gave very clear instructions on where to bring my dog to introduce to his, and right away they were happy and playing in the back. I got pics and videos later that evening and pickup the next day was seemless. I would trust my dog anytime with him and his family, nothing but a positive experience the whole time.”


“Carolyn , was amazing with my puppy . It was my first time ever using the app and I felt comfortable leaving my puppy with her . She send me updates about my puppy and made him felt at home . ❤️”


“Barb, was absolutely wonderful. Very accommodating and communicative. Our dog is a picky eater and she even went as far as feeding him out of her hand to make sure he was eating enough. We couldn’t have asked for a better care taker for our fur baby. Will definitely book again!”


“Ben is friendly, direct, and very good with my dogs! We did a meet & get before leaving the dogs with him for a week- it was about 30 minutes and went well. Ben's dog is a gem and kept my large dog busy, while Ben's cat was thankfully cautious of my small dog (I didn't know he didn't do well with cats!) The residence has an excellent back yard and Ben accommodated my fence-jumper by putting a stake and lead in his yard. We received daily photos of my pups, which were truly appreciated. My dogs were happy and healthy when I picked them up. I will gladly book with Ben again!”


“Cheryl and Jim were fantastic!! They took great care of our old girl, and treated her like family. She has some specific dietary requirements that they handled perfectly, sharing updates and pictures the whole time we were gone. Great communication, made us feel at ease, and we would not hesitate calling on them again. Highly recommended!!”


About: It all started when I was 5 and my sister and I convinced our animal loving parents to add to our family, we got a golden retriever puppy and a kitten in the same year. I have never lived a day without a pet in 35 years! I have open availability. I have 2 smaller dogs and a parrot. I live in a nice, quiet neighborhood perfect for walking furry friends. Ricky and Lucy (cavapoos) love a good slumber party :) I do not have a fenced in yard. My pups know the perimeters. I do take leashed potty breaks and walks with pup visitors. I am familiar with "runners" and an capable of making sure that doesn't happen!

“Michele is awesome! She’s very knowledgeable of dogs and dog behavior and I felt 100% confident leaving my fur babies under her care. Michelle gave great updates over the weekend that I cherished and it was clear the dogs were happy and very comfortable. I highly recommend Michele!”

She won over Bentley in just a few minutes. She kept us updated daily with pictures and information. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Highly recommend!!”
