“Bertie seemed to have a wonderful time with Brittanyerin. We were in a pinch on our wedding weekend and had totally forgot to find a place to board our sweet pup. Brittanyerin was quick to respond to our request and was very accommodating! She sent us lots of photos of Bertie and made sure we had peace of mind. Thank you so much for taking care of our dogter!”

“Nicole was absolutely amazing! It was our first time not using family, but she made it feel like thet were with family. We got daily updates and pictures. Excellent feedback at pickup. Most of all, peace of mind that they were with someone who would love them during our absence. Highly recommend 🥰”

“Awesome family! After a weekend at Austin and Frank’s house my chocolate lab came home and crashed on the kitchen floor exhausted. That’s pretty tough to do! He was very well cared for (maybe better than at home!) and I didn’t have a worry about him while we were away.”
“I recently boarded my dog with Daria for the first time, and I was a bit nervous since it was my dog's first experience staying in a stranger's house. However, Daria was amazing! She made my dog feel comfortable and at ease right away. The updates and pictures she sent showed how well my dog was adapting and enjoying the stay. Her kindness and attention to detail made all the difference. I highly recommend Daria for anyone needing a reliable and caring dog sitter, especially for first-timers!”


“As usual Kimberly was amazing! I appreciate so much her flexibility and care for my pups. You really can just tell how much she cares for them like they’re her own and how much they love being with her 🩷”

“Our dog stayed with Colleen for a week while we were on vacation. This was our first time leaving him for that long, and Colleen made us feel comfortable each day, with detailed updates and photos. Colleen went above and beyond to make adjustments specific to Cooper’s need for recharge time. Cooper loves it at Colleen’s house and was happy and calm when we picked him up. Thank you Colleen!❤️”

“I left Frida with Susan for a week while I was traveling, and I could tell right away Frida was going to be in great hands. Susan was very communicative and sent plenty of photos and updates. I’d definitely leave Frida with her again the next time I’m in the Concord area.”

About: I grew up around all sorts of animals. We always had a dog and a cat or two. We also had birds and a bunny and also a hamster. I love walking and playing with dogs and I get along with all different breeds and sizes. I don’t currently have a full time job so I’m available pretty much anytime. I’m available for boarding and visits during the week and weekends. I have a good sized unfenced yard with a half an acre of woods in the back. I also have a dog of my own who loves other dogs and would love a playmate. I can crate your dog if needed.

“Minda took great care of my dog. She was available on short notice and watched my dog for four days. Could tell she has great experience with dogs. I was very happy to find her. And seeing my dog with her dog and cat helped me learn how to train my dog and cat together.”

About: I’ve always been passionate about dogs, and caring for them feels more like joy than work. Whether it’s playtime, walks, cuddles, or making sure meals and routines are on track, I treat every pup like they’re my own. I know how important it is to trust the person looking after your furry family member, so I focus on keeping them safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. From energetic puppies to senior snugglers, I adapt to each dog’s personality and needs. My goal is to give pet parents peace of mind — because your dog deserves more than just care, they deserve genuine attention and affection. I do live on a secluded piece of land with 60+ acres ideal for your pup to stay if needed! We have hiking trails throughout the property and a porch to soak up some rays! I have most weekends off and one day a week I work from home. I can also drop in for evening care when needed ! I have experience with reactive dogs so I’m highly aware of all situations. I’m alert so I can keep your dog safe as well as myself.
“Heather was very quick to respond when I was looking for a dog sitter. She is very responsive and always kept me updated! My dog had a little upset stomach and she did give him some pumpkin puree :) I would definitely rebook with Heather and highly recommend!!”

“Kim was great, she really helped us out last minute (the day of) and sent lots of pictures! He was super tired when he came back, she gave him lots of attention and exercise!”

About: I have always had a dogs and I now have two I adore. I can offer a safe loving home while you are away from home. I am home all day so can let the dogs in and out as needed. My two dogs are also here to play and keep your dogs company. I have two dogs to keep your dog company and play. I also have an invisible fence so they can come in and out as needed.
“Nataliya was great about sending lots of pictures each day. Our dog had lots of outside playtime and looked so happy in the videos - even pictures of him snuggling on the couch. He was in good hands. ?”


“Lucia was great and was very flexible when watching Chloe. We were away for two weeks and she allowed my sister, who would be watching her the other days, to drop off and pick-up and was accommodating to her tough work schedule. We appreciated that she had other dogs and a fenced in yard. The once a day updates were perfect both for keeping our minds at ease and showing us how great of a time Chloe was having. 100% would recommend!”

About: I love and care for my own dog Finnley—my life is truly built around him. I’ll be offering that same level of love and attention to any dog in my care. If you or anyone you know ever needs help, I’d love to be considered. Please feel free to share my name with any family or friends who might be looking! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m home by 2:45 each day, which allows me to be present and attentive in the afternoons and evenings. I take the dogs out for a walk and make sure they get plenty of exercise, attention, and care as part of my normal day. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, secure environment where they’ll be well cared for at all times. My dog Finnley is very friendly and loves the company of other dogs, so your pup will have a built-in buddy to keep them happy and comfortable.
“Charles took great care of Gus for the night. Was very responsive when I reached out. He took Gus on a nice sniffing adventure and let Gus cuddle with him all night. next time I am in the area I will definitely be reaching out again.”

“Briahna and her husband are so wonderful! They are kind, caring and compassionate sitters. Our dog Gunner is on the "gray" scale of age. They go out of their way to accommodate his limitations (fear of hard wood floors as an example). We are so thankful that we found her - we trust her implicitly with our boy.”
“Becky had great communication and was flexible when I needed to make a change to our reservation. More importantly, our dogs were obviously happy in her care. We would book with Becky and Ben again!”
