“Erin was fantastic as always. My girl is always so excited to hang out at her house with the other dogs and her boys. She comes home so worn out from having the best time. We really appreciate everything she does to keep our girl safe and happy while we are away. So grateful”
“Todd and Maureen were absolutely amazing. We've never boarded a pet before, but it turned out so well! There was nothing to worry about. They treated our girl as if she was their own, and had dedicated space to let her get comfortable in. They're animal lovers, and it shows. We'd recommend them every time! Thank you for your help, it made all the difference.”
“Bennet had to deal with my dog’s anxiety attack this time. She let me know all that was happening and handled with great care and compassion. I highly recommend Bennet to watch your dog. She will treat your pet as her own.”
“My Dog, Buffy, stayed with Matt for a week. She is 14 years old and she's a nervous girl. Matt was so good with her! He was with her night and day. He fed her according to my instructions. She has very few teeth left. He has a sweet dog ,Memphis, who was very good with Buffy too. I would highly recommend Matt to take care of your pet!”
“Jeanne is always amazing!! I don’t have to worry about my dog at all while he’s at her house. I’m confident she treats him like her own, and it’s obvious he feels very happy and comfortable at her house! Thank you jeanne!!!”
“Buddy's stay with Edward went great. The drop off and pick up was quick. Ed took picture and sent update of Buddy chilling with another dog. I would highly recommend Edward and use him again in the future.”
“I am so thankful for Jennifer! She took excellent care of my senior dog, Molly! Jennifer sent lots of photos and updates along with taking Molly on walks. Molly was so happy and relaxed when I picked her up. I knew Molly was well taken care of and loved! Jennifer and her family are so nice and took care of Molly as their own. This was such a great experience, I booked with Jennifer again as soon as I got home! I appreciate Jennifer so much and highly recommend her!!”
“Jessica is wonderful and great to work with. She provided a comfortable and secure environment for Brody and Bailey, our two Yorkie Poos. We will definitely be booking with her again.”
“I am SO HAPPY we found Larissa! She is sweet, easy to talk with, and most importantly, amazing with Carini! She loved staying with her for a week. Larissa sent me updates and pictures every day and I could tell how great of a time my girl was having. Safe to say, we'll be doing some daycare days in the future so she can see them again ??”
“Jennifer was amazing with our two 1 year old pups. She is great at reading dog behavior and even helped train them a bit while they stayed. She kept in touch and sent pictures while we were gone too. She was very responsive to all my messages and concerns. She really did care for them like we would have! They also made friends with a few of her dogs. She was amazing and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter or trainer with experience!”
“Hutch received fantastic care from Mariah and Max and definitely made a couple of new 4-legged friends during his stay. They were also very friendly and very flexible when it came to drop-off/pick-up times, which I greatly appreciated. Highly recommend!”
“Amanda provided exceptional care for our high-maintenance dog, Brock. Safety was a priority, and her facility (aptly named "Vacation Paws") thoughtfully designed. Brock didn't want to leave! Highly recommend Vacation Paws for anyone seeking top-notch pet care.”
“Claire did great with Sansa. She was accommodating for us, took great care of our dog, and sent us updates and pictures as well! Sansa came home and acted just like normal, so I knew she was perfectly comfortable and that says a lot for me. Would use Claire again for sure!”
“Kumar took such good care of my dog! He was gentle, kind, fed him with very specific instructions and made my dog feel at home in his apartment. He sent photos and updates daily. I would highly recommend him as a dog sitter!”
“Christin took absolutely perfect care of my dog, Chance! I received pictures within an hour or so of dropping him off and continually throughout his stay. In every picture, I could tell her was being loved and cared for. Will absolutely rebook next time, thank you Christin!!”
About: From puppies and kittens. Senior dogs and cats and everything in between I have experience with. Uhm basically whatever their routine is just let me know and I can accommodate. Any special request just ask me and most likely will accommodate. I can give real time updates as needed just let me know. I treat someone's pet as my own. Please let me know your pets preferences. Thank you. Again pet care would fit into my routine via way of getting to know and knowing your pets routine. This will be my main focus. I take into consideration the pets needs and basically focus on that in an environment. Basically I just let them rest or do what it is they like to do daily.

“I have known Charlie for 28 years. He has had pets ever since I have known him. He likes to be around them and makes sure they have what they need. He has always made sure to put them on potty breaks when he was at my house. He makes sure that they are part of everything. For this reason I believe he would be a good petsitter.”
