“Great experience with Ken. Max spent 2 days with him. On the second day he jumped into Ken's truck without hesitation. Ken provides activity including hikes as well as down time. Ken also pickup Maz at our fishing trip meeting spot This was very convenient for us and also easier o. Max than a drop off.”


“Tara is a LOVELY human being who was wonderful with our dog. She was so responsive, caring, and kind. She was quick to get back to me with answers to my questions and sent plenty of videos and pictures of our pup to make me feel completely comfortable with him being in her care while we were away. I would happily trust her with my fur baby anytime!”


“This is my second time having Alyson watch my sweet girl! She is always well taken care of and loved. She also loves being able to spend time with her two dogs. She is a great sitter and I have no worries when my dog is with her!!”


“They are so great, they care for our boys like their own. They understand their different personalities and cater to them. We were running out of town and forgot a couple things but they were so accommodating. The boys always come back healthy and well care for. We are already booking our next trip out of town and will use them again :)”

“We are absolutely blessed to have found such a wonderful couple that have a genuine care for animals. Thank you Bryan and Jessica for loving our girls, Sadie & Emmy, while we were gone for three weeks! We had such peace of mind knowing our girls were with such a loving family. Jessica is very communicative and sent me daily updates, photos, and videos. It was worth every mile, 45 minutes, driven to know our girls were loved on and cared for while gone for a month. We will definitely continue to board through Bryan & Jessica. Highly, highly recommend!”


“Kelley was great! She was very responsive in communicating with me, sent me numerous updates and pictures throughout the day. My dog was very well taken care of. Kelley has a great backyard with a high secure fence. She introduced her pups to Chance and they all had a blast. I highly recommend Kelley, could not have asked for more.”


About: Hello. I'm a RN who works night shift. I enjoy caring for people and animals. I've had dogs and cats all my life. Im patient and enjoy training my dog Sadie. She is a wild mix breed with a lot of energy. I've also taught my cats to have manners as well. Let me know if I can be any help to you and your fur babies. I work three nights a week as an RN Sunday Monday and Tuesday. I am available to most days except Mondays and Tuesdays from 8-4 My husband and I care for our dog and three cats. The cats have free roam over the house and are fed wet and dry food. Our dog has her own dog room that was an add on to our home where she stays at night. During the day she is with us around the house or outside in the yard and stays within the boundary of her E fence. She is fed nightly at the same time because I believe routine is the best for dogs.

“Carola is so caring and knowledgeable about all things dog. My dog had a great time and came home relaxed and healthy. The environment is perfect for relaxing inside and playing outside. She loved her bonus siblings and walks. Thank you so much!”


“Eric did an amazing job watching our dog! Quick communication for our last minute booking and fun picture updates to let us know our dog was having a great stay. Highly recommend!”


“Ashley was amazing with Sadie!! It was an emergency situation for us and Ashley made me feel so comfortable leaving our fur-toddler with her and her family! Ashley was so kind and had nothing but great photos and updates to send us throughout the week. We will definitely book with Ashley when needed in the future!”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats ever since I was 10! Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and love on their pets.
