12. Chris M.
“Chris and Carmen were very accommodating hosts! And I love how knowledgeable they are about dog behavior. This was Oskar's first time away from home without us, so he was a bit unsure and nervous. They were patient with him and made sure he was comfortable and happy. I was probably more nervous than Oskar, but the pictures and video they sent while he was there really helped assuage my anxiety! He had lots of exercise (they have a great backyard) and attention. I highly recommend Chris for boarding!”

About: I have owned animals my whole life. I have also worked in veterinary medicine for almost 10 years. I am a Licensed Veterinary Technician and have worked in General Practice as well as ER/ICU. I also operate an animal rescue in which I take in animals in need of medical care and once the animal is healthy, find adopters. I have taken care of numerous animals during my career. I have exceptional knowledge of medical management for animals needing medical care, medications, injections, etc. I currently work as an LVT (Licensed Veterinary Technician) part time. I operate my rescue every day of the week. I have a very flexible schedule that allows me several opportunities during the day/night to provide drop ins to a clients home for walks, medications, etc. I am typically home most of the day so animals staying in my home will have frequent access to the yard and attention from me I have a fenced in yard and a separate entrance and indoor space for pet sitting within my home. I have a finished basement with cat trees, dog toys, couches, etc to make guests staying within my home feel comfortable. Currently, I only have space for one client’s pets at a time to ensure all pets get along and are safe together. Guest within my home will not have access to my own personal pets.
18. Cassidy C.
“Cassidy was FAN-TAS-TIC 🎉 My Gobi, a 14 year old Siberian Husky with old dog issues such as poor appetite, needing medication for his arthritis, frequent urination etc. was in the best hands with this amazing pet sitter…As soon as we met it was an instants connection. I trusted her with my fur baby and she went above and beyond that trust… she updated me daily by sent photos and messages, took my baby to walks, to downtown events. She made it possible for me to enjoy a most needed family time at the beach and Gobi was on vacation with her, too! I recommend her 110% with my eyes closed to any furbaby parent…She is compassionate, smart, trustworthy, committed and very good! I am so lucky our paths crossed. Thank you Cassidy for all you did 🤗 Feza M. Balci”

“We had a last minute thing come up and Deann was ready and willing to take in our cats on such short notice. She took care of them as if they were her own and was amazing to work with! From updates and photos from drop off to pick up. You couldn’t ask for anyone better to care for your kitties! 12/10, will book again!”
20. Lillian A.
“Lillian was awesome! There aren’t enough words to express how happy we are! ? She is quick in responding to questions and sent picture updates. We will DEFINITELY use her again!”
