“Carlina was absolutely wonderful!! We've had our rescue, Bonnie, for almost 5 years and this is the first time she was being left with anyone - we were so nervous! We felt very comfortable after meeting Carlina, her husband, and her pets. While we were gone, Carlina kept us updated with texts and photos of Bonnie. As nervous as I was to start, those nerves melted away quickly and I felt 100% confident that Bonnie was in good hands. I will absolutely book with Carlina again when we plan to travel!”


About: Hello My name Ashley ! Animals Are my life , I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. Caring for animals has been my life long ambition. I’m doing dog walking currently that’s my full time job i honestly enjoy doing it it’s like a passion of mine, I get to care for others pets like their my own ! I’m currently full available so I have plenty of time to spend time and play with the pups as a weekly routine of my day The way I care for pets in clients home is by following any instructions the owner left me, I ensure the pets are safe I look for any sign in body language or behavior. If the owner have a backyard I make sure gates are closed at all times and I keep close eye during playtime

“Thank you both so much for the peace of mind and the communication & check-ins. The peace of mind that I had while Kaya was with you during the last few days was so very much appreciated!! She'll see you next week. 😊”


“Nothing short of wonderful! Carmen was respectful, kind and she kept me updated with cute photos and text messages throughout the days of my dog. She followed instructions and her communication was great. 100% amazing!”


“Lori Ann once again provided George an excellent stay. She even took the time to give him a bath after he got a little dirty after some snow. This was George's second stay and he will be back once again.”


“Kimberle was fantastic with our 2 dogs. This was their first stay away from home and she treated them as if they were her own. She went above and beyond to soothe their nerves and provide a comfortable environment for them. Would recommend highly!”


About: Compassionate care and love are at the foundation of my service. I have 20 years of experience rehabilitating puppy-mill survivors and working with medically needy dogs. I have a special place in my heart for our furry friends that need extra care and attention. I have experience working with dogs that have had extensive medication schedules and I know how to pill a cat without trauma to either of us. I know what it’s like to build trust with the most scared dogs that have come from traumatizing conditions. I use positive reinforcement and love. And of course, I love well adjusted furkids as well. I know how important routine and schedules are for all of these kids, and I can be counted on to do whatever you need to make your pets feel at ease. I am a full time pet sitter, so my schedule is very flexible. I am able to provide customized care that fits with your pets' needs. Walks, drop-ins, overnight stays and more! Typically, I'm up by 6 a.m. and ready for dog walks, drops-ins, or play sessions. I have a fenced-in secure yard and two very friendly Goldens who know how to be great mentors. I also have a senior cat who loves dogs. However, if I'm watching your pet in your own home, I take the utmost care to ensure that I follow instructions and scan the yard/room before leaving them to make sure they will be safe. I started pet/house sitting in my 20s and have taken care of cats and all sized dogs. I have a background in Project Management, so my personality and skills lend themselves nicely to being proactive and following plans and routines. I love checklists and following plans that work best for everyone. On the other hand, I know that animals are never completely predictable and my experience working with former puppy-mill dogs has given me the flexibility and insight to look at the world through a dogs' eyes and see what I need to do to help them build trust and confidence.

“Joy had another successful 1-week slumber party with Laura and her family! I appreciate that she only has a small pack at any given time but there’s also variety of dogs to make new friends. Definitely planning to book again!”


“This was the first time our two puppies stayed away from home, and they had a fantastic time! Lauren took excellent care of them and made them feel right at home. Lauren was attentive to their special puppy needs. They enjoyed the large fenced yard, the wonderful children and the other playful dogs. It was like a vacation for our puppies!”



“Michelle and her family are amazing. They took wonderful care of our 7 month old Great Dane puppy. Michelle is super knowledgeable about all things dog. Her and her husband are friendly, helpful people who truly care about the animals. I received multiple photos of my puppy throughout my weekend away along with some highlights on how she was doing. We will definitely be bringing our puppy back to Michelle.”


“Carole was super accommodating for our last minute request to board my golden retriever puppy. She kept us updated with regular messages, pictures and video. She took great care of him. He got a lot of exercise and running around the fenced backyard while playing with her dog, Venus. After we picked him up, he slept straight through the day. My pup would definitely want to come back for fun filled stays with Venus. I highly recommend Carole to pet parents out there.”


“My 2 dogs were well taken care of at Matty Starr's "resort"! They got along well with his 2 awesome dogs (how many dogs can you fit on one bed?) and my little swimmer girl took full advantage of his dog-friendly pool too. Recommended for anyone with social and active dogs.”


“Pam is kind, compassionate, and took great care of my pups. I was very worried about them but she went out of her way to help in any way she could. I strongly recommend Pam if you are looking for one of the best sitters in the area!!!”

“Leeloo is not an easy dog, but Kara has gone out of her way to help Leeloo adjust to a new home and new people. Leeloo has stayed with Kara multiple times now, and I can tell that she's happy there. It makes it easier to be away, knowing she is happy. Thanks Kara!”


“Reshma is the absolute BEST! She made my dog feel right at home, was really amazing working with me when I had a change in my trip, and sent me so many great updates along the stay. I feel so great knowing she is in good hands when I have to go out of town. Thank you so much!”



“Tiffany was wonderful to my dog Tucker. He really appeared to enjoy his stay with her and her dog Penny. Tiffany's response time was so quick and the daily updates / pictures were wonderful. I really felt Tucker was in good hands. Thank you!”


“Doug and his family were so welcoming to our pup and took the best care of her! They helped her fit right into the family, and updated us all the time about the fun things they were doing. Our dog can be a little shy at the beginning, but they were very patient and helped her out of her shell. We will definitely use their sitting services again, and are so thankful for their care and attentiveness!”

Amy K.
“Amy was fantastic in helping take care of my three dogs and one cat. She was prompt with her reply to my request and on-time for a meet and greet with the fur kids who all instantly loved her. We leave detailed instructions as to feeding times, walks, and medications for two dogs and the cat and was able to manage all well without question. We got daily updates and pictures while she was pet sitting at our house. Her prompt reply was comforting as we have used sitters in the past that did not respond until many hours later or the next day leaving me wondering how much time they were actually spending at my house with the kids. It was nice to return to happy kids and a clean house. Amy will be the first sitter I call the next time I need an overnight sitter or just for a drop in visit. It is a great comfort and I have peace of mind knowing Amy is watching the fur kids and house. Amy also has such a nice cheery personality that makes it a pleasure working with her.”
