“Adriana was delightful. It was clear that she loves dogs and would give them great attention and care. My dog is a bit anxious so I’m sure she was thrilled when she was able to sleep with Adriana‘s daughter.”
“Accepted my two dogs at the last minute when we had to make an urgent trip. My little dog Doc was nervous around the other dogs, but Chrisie made him feel safe and comfortable.”
“I cant say enough about Sairy. To see how much my dog loves her time there makes my Heart happy. She sends me videos and pictures keeping me engaged with her daily activities. She is forever Remy's keeper when I need her in the future. She luvs luvs luvs her Aunt Sairy. ❤️❤️❤️”
“Tayanna accepted my booking in minutes. She told me a little bit about herself and shared pictures of other dogs she has dog-sat. That helped me feel more comfortable. She was super flexible about pick-up and drop off time (I ran a few times by her ahead of time). She sent me lots of videos and pictures of Teddy while I was gone for 5 days. Teddy, my dog, is sweet, but he can take off running for hours if a door is left open. That made me nervous to even try a dog-sitter. Tayanna assured me that Teddy would always be safe with her. Tayanna never had a problem walking Teddy and keeping him safe. I will use her again if I need a dog sitter again :-) And she gave him a cute nick-name: "Sir Teddy." I thought that was cute :-) Tayanna was great!”
“I could not have asked for a better dog sitter for my babies. My two have their own quirks and she and her partner did so great at taking good care of them and learning about them.”
“I needed someone last minute to watch my dog overnight and was so glad to find Klare and her fiance! She sent plenty of updates and pictures so I knew he was in good hands. Would definitely recommend to anyone.”
“This was the first time we boarded Gus so we were a little nervous leaving our baby. But we didn’t need to worry as he was so well taken care of! He seemed very comfortable, and came home extra sleepy from playing so much. I would absolutely have Gus stay again with Elizabeth!”
“10/10 recommend!! Kerri went above and beyond taking care of Ro. Throughout Ro’s stay she sent many pictures and kept us up to date with how Ro was doing. I Will definitely be use Kerri as a sitter in the future.”
About: I've cared for dogs, birds, fish, and reptiles for over 25 years. Each pet is treated like family with extra attention on each individual needs and personality. Recent retirement allows me to be available full time for your fur babies. Maintained strict cleanliness standards for feeding areas, pet relief areas, tanks, cages, bedding. Comfortable responding to minor health issues and emergencies. Available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits - 7 days a week. Flexible schedule to accommodate your pet's routine. Open for holiday and weekend bookings. Offering overnight stays and extended care upon request. Pets are cared for daily, a fenced in yard/deck allows for a outdoor playtime. Attention to special diatery needs of each pet. We match their energy! Pets are not left alone. Guaranteed play time and belly rubs are a must. Emergency contacts and vet info are kept on hand for quick response. I follow all home-specific instructions, no matter how small. I provide regular updates, photos, and messages during each visit.
“Kaitlyn was great! She was responsive, easy to deal with. She accommodated my short notice needs. She sent photos and updates on Sallys status. I felt Sally was in good hands and would take her back to kaitlyn again!”
“5 stars isn't enough to express my gratitude to Emily & Andre for the loving care and attention they give my boys - who come back from every visit happy and calm. Also very much appreciate the frequent updates, can't recommend them highly enough though selfishly I want to keep them to myself :)”
“Bee was a great sitter! She always responded right away when coordinating pickup and drop-off and I felt very comfortable leaving my 1-year old terrier with her. My pup had time playing with her dog in their yard and was completely relaxed and happy when I got him back. It was so helpful having someone I could trust for this last-minute overnight stay.”
“Amber was as sweet as she could be! Perry got lots of TLC and she sent pictures and videos everyday to keep us updated. She lives in a lovely country setting, and Perry thoroughly enjoyed himself!”
About: I have been caring for dogs since as long as I could remember! As a child my family had 4-6 dogs at all times! Lots of experience with Small & Medium stature pets. My husband & I also have a 10 year old, 45lb, Mini Goldendoodle who is sweet as pie & who we adore! I am able to take your dog to the park & for walks, play with them at my home & take on frequent potty breaks since I am always home watching them. I have lots of toys here for them to play with & treats (if allowed by owner). I can administer the required medicine for your dog as well. Experience in giving pills and giving insulin shots to diabetic pups! I’d love to watch your fur baby! I have two young children ages 5 and 2. Dogs must be able to get along with children. I am a stay at home mom to two young kids and I am available during the day while they are in school or even before and after school drop off! As long as they are well behaved I allow dogs on furniture and they would receive lots of love and attention here! We love animals!
“Rebecca and Mark were just wonderful! Great first time experience for me and Trudie! They were great about checking on the specific details of her care and routine and kept on touch. I would highly recommend them !”
