“Beth was incredible! She kept us updated with videos of both of our dogs and we felt very at ease leaving our dogs - especially since one of them has special needs. Beth has a great set up for hosting animals and we will definitely be bringing our dogs back!”
“Rita is a very caring person. She professionally addressed a health issue that arose with our fourteen-and-a half year old Yorkie while under her care.”
“Henri had a wonderful stay over the Holidays with Candice and family! She was very communicative and sent frequent pictures. We will be back for sure!!”
“Jill & Tommy were great! Milly had a great time playing with 5 new friends and we were kept updated with texts & pictures daily. Today she seems lonely with just me on a rainy Monday. Paul & Marybeth”
“Raelyn was great. Our dobie is a big ball of energy and she handled him better than any other dog facility or sitter could. Personally if you're looking for a home feel away from from home for your pup there isn't anyone better. She constantly checked in with us on how he was any moment she can. Despite her busy schedule she still made sure to always make us comfortable knowing he was in good hands.”
“Jenny and her family were phenomenal watching my baby bully! She sent pictures of him happily playing every day and kept me in the loop of his schedule. As we both work thru separation anxiety, this was helpful and I was able to focus during my military orders. I can’t express my gratitude enough and Batman will definitely be back to visit!”
“Dory loves going to Patti’s and we feel so comfortable and relieved know that when she is there, she will be taken care of so well and have a fun time.”
“This was our first time using Rover, let alone allowing someone we don’t know watch over our dogs. When we first met Andres, he was very understanding of our concerns of leaving our dogs for the first time. While we were away, he stayed in contact with us and gave us daily updates and sent pictures of our dogs. When we picked them up, both dogs were as happy as can be. We are very happy with how well it went with Andres. We highly recommend him to anyone looking for a sitter, especially first-timers! Thanks Andres!!!”
“We have a Siberian husky who suffered from separation anxiety. I very rarely leave him. We went to Michigan for 9 days and I kept going back and forth on whether to take him with us or board him. After meeting Rajrupa and her family i decided to board him. I started receiving pictures from the second I pulled away thru the entire trip. It was such a comfort to see him socialize with the family and other dogs. He was so happy getting to play with other dogs and not needing to be cooped up in a small kennel like most boarding places do. I will not hesitate the next time we go on vacation he has a great time and made so many new friends. ❤️ Thank you Rajrupa and thank you to your family for living and caring for my crazy pup..”
“Katie is amazing and you can tell definitely an animal lover. She took such good care of my Chihuahua, even sent updates of how he was doing. I would definitely have Katie watch him in the future if I ever need a sitter again.”
“I cannot say enough good things! She. Is. Perfect. There was constant communication. Her dogs are so gentle and love having new visitors. There are always humans around so dogs are never alone. Her home and yard are cozy and welcoming. Our family is so happy we found her. ?”
“Olivia is fantastic. I know my dog is safe and cared for when he stays with her. She’s flexible and easy going, which makes working with her a breeze!”
“Bella is fantastic! You can tell she loves dogs and makes sure they get attention and love all day. She provides updates throughout the day which is so nice while traveling. We will definitely work with her again!”
“Rebecca and Ozzie are genuine dog lovers. We went away for a week, and they were great about sending us pictures and updating us on our dog Charlie. We consider Charlie a part of our family, and we all missed him while we were away. Rebecca set our minds at ease by sending pictures and videos each day, and she shared information about his eating habits (we learned that he doesn’t like his beef wet food). We will definitely use their services again in the future!”
“Lindsey was great! She kept us updated the whole time with pictures and videos of our dog Rocky. We felt very comfortable with Rocky in her care. Will definitely use her again!”
“Erin has exceptional communication skills, she sends cute little updates with multiple pictures daily during their stay. Our two chihuahuas come home relaxed and happy.”
“An excellent place if you want your dog not only well taken care of but loved like their own! Plus, I liked that they kept me updated with pics and video as well as her activities while I was on my vacation. Thank you Kymi and bits!!!!”
About: With over six and a half years of hands-on pet care, I bring a rare blend of experience, attentiveness, and heart. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and ages—from energetic puppies learning the ropes to senior pets needing gentle, attentive care. What truly sets me apart is my ability to read and respond to animals’ unique personalities. I create a calm, consistent environment where pets feel safe, loved, and understood. Whether it’s administering medication, offering leash training for puppies, or providing low-stress companionship for older pets, I bring patience and skill to every interaction. I also have experience caring for a diverse range of animals beyond just dogs and cats. From chickens and birds to hamsters and other small pets, I understand that every species has its own rhythm, needs, and comfort cues. I’m confident and compassionate with unique, exotic, or less-common animals, always prioritizing their safety, emotional well-being, and daily routines. Pet care is a built-in part of my weekly life. I’m highly flexible and genuinely enjoy working around each pet’s needs and schedule. Whether it’s early mornings, midday visits, evenings, or even late nights, I’m available and committed to making your pet’s care seamless and stress-free. I’m also happy to accommodate weekend bookings and unique timing requests whenever possible—just let me know what works best for you and your pet, and I’ll do my best to make it happen. Reliability, consistency, and clear communication are at the heart of everything I do. In clients’ homes, I prioritize maintaining their pet’s normal routine and environment. I follow all instructions closely—feeding schedules, walking routes, medication routines, and preferred playtime activities—so your pet experiences as little disruption as possible. I also make sure the space stays tidy and respected while I’m there. If I’m hosting pets in my home, I provide a calm, safe, and welcoming space. I separate animals as needed, keep food and water fresh and clean, and ensure they have access to cozy rest areas and supervised play. I never leave pets unattended, and I’m mindful of their comfort, especially in a new setting. In both cases, I focus on creating a low-stress, high-trust atmosphere, and I keep pet parents updated with messages, photos, and honest communication throughout the stay.
“Buffie has a strong professional background in animal care, but even more importantly, her love and passion for animals of all kinds is self-evident. We haven't had many opportunities to socialize our one-year old dog due to covid, so we were very happy for him to stay with Buffie for the weekend and experience time with other dogs. She has a large fenced-in field just for the dogs to enjoy for outside play time. He felt so at home with Buffie he never even missed a meal! She is attentive and even advised me about how to maintain his ear health as a poodle, and the additional grooming options to keep his ear hair under control. We are lucky to have found Buffie, she is a gem.”
“Ashley and her family are awesome! This was the longest period of time I've been away from my pup, and I was really nervous about traveling without her. But as soon as I met the family I instantly felt better. This is a very warm home, and they treated Denali like she was part of the family. They were all so kind to Denali, and I could tell she was very comfortable with them. Thank you Ashley for such an awesome job with Denali!”
