“First time leaving my little furbaby. I was a little nervous about it but Alexis sent me daily updates and pictures. If I ever need to leave again I will gladly get ahold of Critter Corner Pet Care. I was able to enjoy my time away and not worry.Great people and service.”

“Everything worked out just fine! Macchi is her happy energetic self and I'm glad to have her back! Thank you so much for utilizing the instructions left for her. It's often difficult to find someone who will follow them. We would totally stay again!”

“Robin took such good care of my babies Loki and Morgan. And even on short notice for a last minute wedding I had to go to in Washington state. She sent awesome updates on how they were doing. We really appreciate you taking such good care of them. I highly recommend her to watch your fur babies.”


“This was the first time leaving our puppy with a dog sitter and I was nervous. But Nancy and her husband were great! They were very accommodating and kept in touch with lots of pictures.”


About: We provide residential boarding in both our house and finished barn depending on availability and needs. You can schedule a tour. Drop off and pick up time as early as 7am and 11pm. Playtime in the yard is included. You can pay extra for a daily walk. Charged a flat rate per night. Updates available during stay. All dogs are welcome small, big, young, old, friendly, and we are also capable of caring for aggressive dogs. As a family business, my wife Valerie is home during the day to care for clients and I’m home in the evening and weekends to assist. Client needs are met with compassion and knowledge. Care is discussed in detailed and documented. Updates are sent as requested. Dogs in the house must be able to be crated, otherwise the large indoor/outdoor runs in the barn are a better option.
“Karisa was fantastic! Our dog is older (15) and can get a little nervous, so a caring, home environment is what we were looking for. There was such peace of mind leaving our pet with Karisa. She even sent pictures so we could see how cozy Tilly was in their home and she was sent home with a “goodie bag” of homemade doggie treats! We highly recommend!!!”

“Alexx was a life saver! She was a complete stranger to us when we first met but after a walk through visits, we 100% felt comfortable having her take care of our 3 dogs. We were able to keep our fur children at home and have her come for visits. She let them out multiple times a day, feed them and administered their medications. She was respectful, kind and caring to our babies and I strongly recommend her to everyone! I would giver her 10 stars, if it was an option.”

“Aleisha was amazing with our 1 year old pup. As a rescue he does have anxiety being left alone and she handled him beautifully! The pictures throughout his stay really helped to ease my mind as I had never parted with my dog before for any amount of time! She made it a very easy transition and worked with my same day notice! Couldn’t of had a better experience!”

“Great communication and so sweet. I wasn’t worried about Jester the entire time I was out of town. He had a blast playing with his new friends! I definitely will be using Elissa again!”

“Absolutely loved her!!!! She was so welcoming with my dog! She would keep me updated on my dog! And she just so nice, she also took my dog to her moms house for thanksgiving so my dog wouldn’t be alone which I thought was really nice and thoughtful! Definitely recommend!! You’ll want her to babysit your dog!!”


About: I’ve taken care of neighbors’ dogs since I was a kid. I have worked with anxious older dogs, puppies and high energy breeds. I am also comfortable giving medication. I’m a runner who loves the outdoors so a walk or run with your dogs sounds like a great summer day. I’m currently working part time so I will have lots of time to play with your pets! I’m a runner and love everything outside so a walk or run with your dog sounds like a great way to spend my afternoons! I don’t have any other pets at home. I don’t have a fenced in yard but can keep them on a long leash if that is necessary. I only work for a few hours a day so your dog will spend most of it’s time with me.
About: I have had animals my entire life so I am very accustomed to taking care of pets. Our dog had seizures and had to take medication 2x/day. I know how important our animals are and what they mean to us. They are family. Having 3 pets of my own, animal care is in play 24 hours a day. Whether it's potty breaks, medications, or feeding time, I always make sure my animals are healthy and happy. Ensuring that they have food and water and a safe, warm place are of utmost importance. Providing love and affection because we are their whole world!
“Michelle was the absolute best! Our girl had so much fun staying with her! The house was beautiful, clean, and spacious. Our dog was allowed to sleep on furniture and in the bed just like at home. She followed our care instructions perfectly and loved her just as much as we do. I’m so happy that she stayed with Michelle while we traveled!”

“Jami was a great sitter for our dog, Gizmo! He enjoyed being outside in the fenced yard and all the extra attention. My family enjoyed a week long vacation knowing he was is good hands. Jami was very accommodating and flexible with drop off/pick up times. We will definitely will be rebooking for future vacations.”


About: What sets me apart is the level of attention and heart I put into every pet I care for. I don’t just “watch” pets I treat them like they’re part of my own family. I create a calm, cozy environment where they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I also have a gentle approach with senior pets, understanding they may need extra time, medication reminders, slower walks, or just quiet companionship. I’m attentive to routines, feeding schedules, and any specific instructions, because I know consistency matters. My goal is always to make both pets and owners feel completely at ease. I’m currently working part time so gives me plenty of time to play and spend time with all my future furry friends! I am available from 9am-5pm on Wednesdays and Thursday. And can do morning walks from 7am-10am weekly and on the weekends! When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, calm, and cozy environment while following their normal routines for feeding, potty breaks, walks, and rest. I make sure they get plenty of supervision, attention, and affection so they feel comfortable and secure. For house sitting, I maintain your pet’s regular schedule to keep things familiar and stress-free, while treating your home with respect. During drop-ins, I ensure pets are fed, hydrated, exercised, and given quality interaction. For walks, I focus on safe, structured outings tailored to your dog’s energy level and needs.No matter the service, I prioritize consistency, communication, and loving, dependable care.
