“I had never left my dog with a boarder before. Noodle is my baby (she’s 10 years old, takes daily heart medication twice a day, and is shy around new people) so I was nervous about finding someone who would truly give her the attention and comfort she needed while I was away on a long trip. From the moment we met Kristin (and her sweet dog Nori), I knew Noodle was in good hands. Kristin went above and beyond to make sure Noodle was happy, comfortable, and eating well, and she made sure her medication was given on time. She sent lots of photos, videos, and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. Noodle had a wonderful time, made plenty of new friends, and came home happy. Kristin genuinely loves and cares for the dogs like they’re her own, and it really shows. We will definitely be back!”
“Bob was wonderful to our nervous little pup! He made sure she was well taken care of and she felt very much at home at his place. Would definitely have her stay again!”
“Kristy was great with Marcy! she's just a puppy so I was worried how she would react to spending a night away from home. Kristy sent pictures to me throughout the entire stay and was super accommodating when we picked her up later than I thought! Will definitely be leaving Marcy there whenever we go out of town!!”
“Melissa took such great care of my dog while I was out of town. She sent me pics and updates at least once a day. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog in her care, I would definitely use her again and recommend her to others.”
“Erick is terrific -- kind, patient and flexible. My maltese, Oscar, got some nice social time with Erick's other pups, which Erick documented with regular texted photos. It is hard to leave your four-legged with a stranger, but Erick really lifted my anxiety about that and in fact he's taking care of Oscar this week while I'm in Mexico. It is a relief to have someone nearby that I can now count on to take good care of my boy Oscar.”
“Linda was wonderful and watched our 1 year old dog while we vacationed for the week. She took the time to send plenty of photos and took our dog on many fun walks around the neighborhood each day! Our dog was a rescue and tends to be very nervous and cautious in new situations. Linda took extra care to make sure he was happy and comfortable each day. I highly recommend booking with Linda!”
“Skye took in my pup for an overnight boarding and I could not be happier with how dedicated he was to our puppy the entire time! He sent us photos and videos of their adventures and playtime, he made sure my puppy was well fed, watered, and gave him so much playtime he was exhausted when we picked him up! We can tell our puppy has the time of his life and can’t wait to request Skye again our next time in town!!!!”
“Once again a great stay with Karen. Bud is very comfortable with Karen and her furry friends. I highly recommend her for small calm dogs who need a peaceful retreat from their normal routine.”
“My senior pug loved staying with Megan. She is 14 years old and just needs somewhere to sleep and be loved. Staying at Megan's fulfilled her requirements. Megan was very easy to deal with, accommodating and flexible. We have already booked another stay with her!”
“We had such a great experience with Carly! Fig absolutely loved spending time with Willow- they became fast friends. It was such a comfort knowing Fig was in a warm, caring home with another sweet pup to play with. Highly recommend!”
About: I am a mature pet mamma who will love helping with your pets. Lots of experience and first aid knowledge. Your pet will be in good hands. I am retired with a flexible schedule. Working around your needs is fine with me. I am rarely not available. I’d love to help you out. I have a senior dog and 2 year old cat to play with your pet in my home. If I come to you, I will respect your home and follow the needs you lay out.
“Annie was amazing with our pup, Milo! From the moment we met, I knew he was in great hands. She sent us updates and cute pics every day, which totally put us at ease. Milo came home happy, tired (in the best way), and clearly loved. You can tell she genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
About: I grew up with a Shih Tzu and helped take of her. My sister has another Shih Tzu now that I dogsit often. Absolutely love small dogs and can give them all the love and attention they need. I work full-time, but I work from home 2 days a week. I live and work in Asbury, so if I dogsit in town I can easily go during lunch breaks to take the dog out. Otherwise, when I know I am dogsitting I will make sure to not make other plans so that my full presence can be with the dog. I would learn the norms of the home and what the dog needs to feel comfortable and safe by having a thorough conversation and observing the dog in their habitat. I will do my best to respect the dog and their parents’ environment.
“Cristy did a great job of creating a regular routine for Flicker and keeping me updated with pictures. She worked with me on pickup and drop-off times and made sure Flicker got a good balance of fun and quiet time. Thanks, Cristy!”
“10 out of 10 definitely would book Nicole as a sitter again. She sent many pictures and let me know my boy was being good. Anubis seemed like he wanted to stay with Nicole lol. I am truly happy that I booked Nicole for dog sitting services and highly recommend you do the same if you want your pet in good hands! Thank You very much Nicole”
“Conor was awesome with my 7-month old pup, super accommodating with pickup/drop-off and even carried him at points when he was scared of the steps. Can tell he really loves dogs and highly recommend him!”
