“Excellent. Great on short notice. Great pictures snd follow-up!”


“Sydney was able to help us out on short notice and everything went very smoothly. Our dog seemed very well cared for, communication was great and her home was very well suited for pet sitting.”



“Kay goes above and beyond. I really appreciate her attentiveness while caring for our senior, hospice dog. I also appreciate that someone will be home while he is in her care. We also really enjoy seeing her family and chatting during drop off and pick up.”


About: We have had our own dog for 7 years and have taken care of other family members dogs while they are away! We love have another pet in the home that we can interact with by playing fetch, going for walks, belly rubs, snuggles, and extra treat giving. Our beagle loves playing with other dogs as well! In the summer I am off so I am home daily. During the school year, I am at work Monday through Friday 7-4 and home on the weekends. We don’t have a fenced in backyard, but have an invisible fence for our dog. When watching other dogs we make sure we are outside with them so they don’t run off. When gone, we gate our dog in the kitchen area that has her bed along with food and water. Don’t need to be crate trained.

“Kayle was awesome! Sent pictures and took really great care of our puppy. Our pup is 6 months old and she did a wonderful job with her. She has a great place to watch dogs with a nice park across the street. So our dog had lots of walks. Highly recommend!”


“Perssis and Greg did a fantastic job caring for our two boys Kai (cavapoo) and Kona (lab). They sent photos and updated us while we were away which was so reassuring! They kept the pups busy playing, snuggling, swimming, and going for walks. We never love to leave our pups, but we felt 100% comfortable and confident leaving them with this family! We will definitely be using them again 🙂”


“Olivia was able to accommodate a stay for my puppy on a pretty short notice. She was great with Nala! Olivia sent updates throughout Nala’s stay and it was obvious that Nala was very comfortable! Will definitely be having Nala go back.”


“Amanda was fantastic! She was genuinely excited to care for our pup. Meeting up was easy and Amanda was attentive to details and for our care routine. She provided updates each day and included pictures of all the fun our dog was having. We felt confident that our dog received excellent care. When we need help in the future, Amanda will be our first choice. Thank you!!”


“Sadie, a yellow Labrador husky dog, got to spend some quality time with people and came back happy and content, & slept as soundly as I have ever seen. Crystal (the dog-sitter) said Sadie did well with the children and left the infants alone, so that went well. I was grateful Crystal allowed the dog to interact with the kids and even come into the house. I wasn't quite sure whether Sadie would behave. She did grab items off shelves, a habit I am trying to bring under control, but the dog interacted normally with the people in the house and that went very well. I was very grateful to have found a good home where Sadie felt comfortable staying. The dog-boarding went even better than I had expected! I really appreciate Crystal's kind and caring attitude toward the dog-boarding and will definitely look her up for Sadie the next time I need to find Sadie a place to stay.”


“They were so great! I loved getting pictures everyday seeing all the love my pup was getting, it was amazing to know he was in such great hands while we were away!”


“We are so grateful to Hannah and her family for taking in our high energy very spoiled dog last minute for the weekend ! She was great to work with, sent updates and my dog came back happy and stress free !”


“We could not have asked for a better family to watch our dog! There was lots of communication and updates, which was very much appreciated while we were gone. They cared for Buster just like he was a member of their family. 1,000% recommend”


“Lucy had a good time with Amy, Gregory and their family. She got along with the family's other pets and they enjoyed her and sent lots of pictures and updates. I am very comfortable with their care for Lucy and have scheduled again with them.”


“Jessica and Will did phenomenal with Mayzie. She just had Spay surgery right before arriving and they treated her so well when I had to work out of town.❤️ Thanks Jessica”


“Laura is wonderful and gave our family peace of mind while we were away from our dogs. She has an awesome set up to make dogs feel comfortable and was very communicative, sending us pictures of our pups. Highly recommend and we will definitely use her again!”



“Shari is the best! We have left our dog Max in her care multiple times and we're impressed with her communication with us and her attentiveness to him. We never worry because we know he's in great hands.”


“Jadyn was great to work with! She provided frequent updates and took good care of Buddy. We had a meet and greet beforehand that was helpful. Very willing to work with any rules/boundaries you set for your pet.”



“Andrea provided a fun, safe first-time boarding experience for our two pups! They came home happy and so tired. I know they loved the fenced-in back yard to run in! We are so happy to have found a great place to send our beloved pups while we are away. We will be rebooking with Andrea in the future.”


About: I have over 7 years of experience in the pet care business taking care of dogs of all ages, sizes, and breeds. I aim to meet the unique needs of each individual dog in my care. As a full‑time dog trainer and caretaker working from home, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine which allows me to be fully present for each dog’s needs. I begin the morning with feeding, fresh water, and a potty break, followed by tailored exercise, whether off‑leash play or long-line walks. Potty breaks and exercise times are scattered throughout the day. I prioritize safety, structured exercise, and cleanliness: each dog enjoys a secure kennel space overnight, with a sturdy, fenced area for off‑leash play under supervision and controlled walks on long lines. Kennels are disinfected between each visitor and are cleaned daily. Careful supervision, regular fencing inspections, and established routines ensure every dog is happy, healthy, and well‑cared‑for.

“Zion had a blast, Jennifer consistently sent photos and videos of Zion playing with her dogs. Very flexible, and quick responses. Even fed him some homemade natural food mixed with his food that Zion absolutely loved. Would give her 6 stars if I could! Will defiantly have her watch my pup again.”
