“Lauren was so great with our little Archie. He's shy about new situations and she did a great job with him. And it was especially nice of her to take him on late notice!”


“Jen & Rob took such great care of my dog for day care weekly. He always came home happy, healthy, and exhausted (thank god, he is a high energy Aussie and needed to expel that energy!). Thank you, Jen & Rob for being a safe place for me to bring my dog!”


“Paige was absolutely amazing! From the moment we dropped off our pup, we felt confident that she was in great hands. Paige has a wonderful, open space where the dogs can safely run and play, and she kept us updated with photos and messages throughout the stay. It gave us such peace of mind to see how happy and well cared for our dog was. We’re so pleased with the experience that we’ve already booked with her again. We highly recommend Paige to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving sitter!”


“Jenny and her family were amazing!! They took care of my dog like he was their own. He had so much fun and didn’t want to leave. Jenny also sent me awesome pictures of all the fun he was having. Thank you so much!”


About: Hi, I’m Nicole! I’ve always loved dogs and long walks, so dog walking is the perfect combo for me. Whether your pup loves adventure or just a calm stroll around the block, I’m here to make sure they get the care, attention, and exercise they need. Reliable, kind, and always ready for tail wags and happy steps! 🐾🖤 I work from home which allows plenty of afternoon walk flexibility. I am also available most weekends. I’m an early risers and love to be active. Plenty of walks and playtime here! I also have experience with older dogs. My house is set up with three baby gates to provide safe spaces for dogs of different personalities and energy levels. I also have a fenced in yard and neighborhood with plenty of sidewalks.

“Syd was AMAZING!! He was so kind from start to finish! He answered my last minute booking quickly, was a reasonable price, and gave me a full report at the end of the doggy day care service! He also sent amazing pictures of my puppy throughout the day to make me feel extra comfy knowing my little baby was having a good day! Best first time leaving my puppy with someone else! Would definitely recommend!”


About: Hi there! I grew up with lots of pets and have cared for dogs for most of my life. As a child, my family had all kinds of dogs - including a beagle, Siberian husky, Australian shepherd mix, yellow lab, and peekapoo. Some of my favorite childhood memories include days spent exploring or hiking with our dogs. I love their companionship, intelligence, and getting to know their unique personalities. I can’t imagine life without our dogs! Currently, my husband and I have two rescue pups - a Samoyed and Pomsky, who are playful, fun, and always up for an adventure. We have a special love for arctic dogs, in particular, ever since our first Samoyed mix followed us home as a stray 15+ years ago. Now, we have two children who also adore dogs. I love watching my kids learn and grow as they care for animals. In addition to our dogs, we also have 2 outdoor rabbits (in a separate, secure location), and one outdoor cat who mostly sunbathes in our driveway. Our home would be a good fit for dogs who thrive in an active and playful household, and who would enjoy children and making some new dog friends. Our home has dog toys, comfy beds and couches, and lots of room to play. We strive to ensure our dogs are mentally engaged and active, and guarantee that your dog will enjoy at least one daily walk and ample outdoor playtime. If comfortable, your dog can also join us on family outings to parks, playgrounds, and hiking trails. I am happy to work with your dog on basic training commands. I can also bathe them, or bring them to any grooming appointment that might be helpful to schedule while you are away. Our children also like to make “pupsicles” - frozen dog treats - which your dog can absolutely enjoy, if desired. I truly appreciate how hard it is to be away from your dog. They are family. As a responsible, caring dog (and human!) mom, I will do everything possible to get to know your beloved dog, and to help them feel safe and loved in our home. Your dog will be lovingly cared for alongside my own two dogs and children. I am a stay-at-home mom with a fairly flexible schedule, and I guarantee that your dog will enjoy lots of hours of companionship with my family at home. Before your dog’s stay, I will learn all about their routines and preferences for feeding, activity, and rest. I skillfully manage schedules and routines for my own kids and pets - and I am committed to maintaining them for your dog as well. If your dog would enjoy it, they can absolutely be included in our various family outings - such as visiting parks or hiking trails. Your dog will join a safe and loving family home environment. When your dog arrives for their stay, I will attach my own custom dog tag to their collar - with my contact information - for an extra added layer of safety. Our own dogs also wear GPS collars as a precaution, and we’re happy to provide one for your dog’s stay as well. Our secure, fenced backyard offers ample room for dogs to run and play. For your dog’s safety, he/she will need to be comfortable staying in a crate when we leave the house. I also turn on music for our dogs when we leave, and can continue to do so if this would feel soothing for yours. We can discuss and accommodate whatever sleeping arrangement would feel most easeful for your dog. Your dog will always have access to fresh water and frequent potty breaks. I will feed them according to your schedule, and can offer either my own treats or ones that you provide. I can give pills or medication to your dog, but am not trained to do injections. I always wonder how my dogs are doing when we have to be away, and I appreciate how comforting it is to receive updates. If this is something you’d also like, I am happy to send regular photos and updates about your dog.

About: Hello! I’m a Part-Time working Momma and we love animals! I have grown to enjoy dogs mostly. I’ve had a pet dog for a great amount of my life as well as other animals like rabbits, fish and snakes! Size or age doesn't matter, they are all fun. I love their energy and seeing how they interact with loved ones. I frequently help out family members with their dogs which includes bathing, walking, picking up their food and medicine. Taking trips or “car rides” are also a fav’ we partake in. Dogs are truly a pleasure to have and I would love the opportunity to provide care to your fur baby! I have open availability now and have one kiddo! We are up pretty early for school/sports and events so I am pretty flexible with boarding/scheduling! I have a fenced in backyard with lots of space to run and play. I also have a finished basement for those that are potty trained.

“We had some rocky communication difficulties in the beginning due to the app, but aside from that everything was great! Shanikka took great care of Daphne and sent me many photos and updates throughout the day. It was hard for me to find someone who was willing and able to watch such a young puppy and I’m very appreciative of Shanikka and her family. I will definitely be booking again in the future!”

About: I’m passionate about dogs and offer personalized care to meet each pet’s unique needs. Whether it's playtime, cuddles, or administering medication, I ensure your dog feels safe and loved. With experience caring for senior dogs, I understand the extra patience and attention they require, providing gentle walks and extra comfort to keep them happy and healthy. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide your pet with consistent attention throughout the day. I can easily accommodate walks, playtime, and care whenever needed, ensuring your pet feels comfortable and loved at all times. In my home, I provide a safe and comfortable environment for pets, with a spacious outdoor area for supervised playtime. While the yard is fully fenced, I ensure your pet is closely monitored during outdoor time. I also have a cat, and I make sure all pets are introduced and get along well. When caring for your pet in your home, I stick to their routine and prioritize their safety, comfort, and well-being
