“Brandi is AMAZING!! She has training and years of experience with dogs. She is gentle and kind, and 100% trustworthy. She is so fun, and sent updates everyday while we were on vacation. I can’t say enough about Brandi. We were so thankful that she loved our pup while we were out of town.”

“I'd recommend Amanda and Shawn to watch anyone's dogs. They are awesome. They really love dogs and go the extra mile to take care of the animals in their charge. I could not have asked for a better place for our 3 dogs to stay and people to take care of our fur family. Excellent care.”
“Randee was great with Louie! We will not hesitate to have Louie stay with Randee again. Randee was very accommodating and understanding when we had to adjust some drop off and arrival times.”
“Shawn and Joey were great sitters for my dog Ivy! They were flexible with scheduling, sent updates and pictures and were super kind throughout everything. Ivy and their dog Mindy got along great and they have a nice yard for them to play in. I would definitely recommend them for anyone looking for a sitter in the area!”

“Andrea was wonderful. My dog Gracie has severe anxiety and it wasn’t going to work, unfortunately. I ended up having to leave work and take her home. I felt bad for Andrea, but she reassured me she was fine with everything. Some dogs just don’t do well in other people’s homes. Anita”

About: I have a lot of experience caring for different types of animals, including reptiles, cats, and dogs. I'll make sure your four-legged friend feels comfortable, gets plenty of snuggles, has room to roam, and receives quality care. I love animals and spend the majority of my time working from home and caring for my pets. I am available to care for animals nearly 24/7 without interruption and have the freedom to spend time with the pets in my care. I have a two-acre country yard that is unfenced. Dog owners may bring invisible radius fences to use in my yard, or dogs can be leashed or put on runner if needed. If desired by the owner, dog crates can be used if provided. I have a large space for cats to remain undisturbed by household activities and pets.
“Eleanor enjoyed her first visit with Kris! She sent updates and pictures to keep me in the loop on how things were going. We will definitely book with Kris again, thank you!!”
