“Christina was amazing! She made our shy, anxious dog feel right at home. We appreciated the text updates throughout our pup’s stay and will definitely be booking with Christina again the next time we go out of town.”

“This was our first time using Megan to care for our sweet Buddy and certainly will not be the last. Megan sent us messages daily to let us know how he was doing. I also like she makes her own treats and shared the recipe. Megan made sure Buddy got walks and was brushed several times and he even came home smelling so good. Thank you Megan for taking such good care of our Buddy.”

“Eugene and Gale watched our sweet Sophie for a week while we were out town. They sent us pictures and videos of her throughout the week to help ease our anxiety of leaving her. She’s older now and can’t travel with us any longer. We loved the idea of boarding Sophie in a home and we found the perfect fit for our family. Eugene and Gale took care of Sophie like she was their own. She even went on car rides and enjoyed visiting family. We couldn’t have been happier with the care and love she received. We will definitely use their services again! Thank you both again for taking care of our beloved Sophie!”


“Kathleen took great care of our Ellie. She seemed really happy with all the snuggles and adventures they went on while she was under Kathleen’s care. Definitely recomment if you’re looking for a kind and reliable sitter.”

“Alyx was wonderful to work with and we are very happy we found her! She was easy to communicate with and kept us updated on Lucy's stay with messages and pictures. We were nervous leaving Lucy with a new sitter but feel confident that she was well cared for and given lots of one-on-one attention in her time with Alyx. We definitely recommend her!”

“We booked Natalie for my elderly parent’s young beagle. It was their first time boarding a pet so they were nervous and didn’t quite understand the rules of drop-off & pick-up, etc. ( although I explained to them in detail) Natalie was understanding and responsive. She was kind and communicative, often sending several pictures and updates on their dog. Thank you, Natalie, for taking care of Schatzi and extending an extra day when we needed it. I know my mother was persistent with her constant messages, even when I kept assuring her the dog was fine & to leave you alone, lol! We appreciate your help!!!”

“We really appreciate Deborah taking such good care of our dog, Blu, while we were away for several days. He enjoyed having other dogs to play with and the ability to play outside in her fenced in yard. He came home tired and happy! Will definitely use her services again in the future.”

“Literally couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitting experience! Our two dogs had the best time and we were provided with pictures and updates throughout! Perfect environment for pups and we will definitely be returning!”

About: I've been in contact with dogs as long as I've been walking and talking. My parents always had a pack of 4 running around the house and my brothers and I were frequently helping out with feeding, walking, etc. I used to spend a lot of my weekends with my mom’s poodle, trimming his unruly coat! I also have owned rats, fish and cats, and am comfortable caring for them, as well as birds. Just let me know if you have a smaller critter that needs some care! I have experience with farm animals such as horses and chickens, and am happy to watch goats, cows, you name it!! I work a remote job from home as a Peer Support Specialist, so while dog sitting, I can remain in your home all day to watch over your pets! I clicker train my dog Artemis and have mini training sessions everyday with her. I'm more than happy to include your dog if you let me know what you'd like to work on. I also have experience with reactive dogs, as my late mastiff mix came into my care with an extreme case of stranger reactivity that I managed. So, if your pup is timid or shy, I will for sure still take them on and give them the best experience catering to their specific fears. I know owning a reactive dog can be isolating and stressful. Let me take some of that stress away by being understanding of your pups and their needs! I’m more than happy to arrange meet and greets to discuss fido’s specific needs and let them get used to my presence. Understanding and listening is important in managing reactivity, and I’m more than happy to be that person!
About: You can be sure that your sweet pup will get the time, love, care, and exercise that they need while they are in my care! I am currently stay at home with my four year old and own a cleaning company. I only clean a few hours a day Monday through Thursday so I’ll have plenty of time to play with a furry pal! I love to walk around our beautiful neighborhood several times a day to get plenty of steps in. We have a large yard in a safe neighborhood. The dog/dogs will be leashed and with me anytime we are outside. I have a large metal crate that the dog can stay in when it needs a rest!

“Our pup, McMurphy, had an excellent time with Katie! She wasn't phased by any of the extra challenges of working with a puppy and we're really grateful to have found someone who cares so much for dogs and is so easy to work with. Thanks for helping his first stay away from us go so smoothly!”
“I really appreciated how clean the dogs were when I picked them up. They smell better than they did when I left them and their bandanas are adorably festive! Keeping my crew safe & clean is no easy task!! Thank you!!”

“Madison watched Shelby while I volunteered at the Commin Ground fair. It was the perfect place for her. Madison is attentive, great with communication and goes over and above. When Shelby‘s toy broke, she went and bought a new one.”

“Catherine did a great job, reliable , caring , and very knowledgeable. Catherine took many pictures and sent them to be while away. My Teddy looked so happy and well taken care of. I highly recommend , and will be requesting her services in the future. 😊”

About: Nothing brings me more joy than interacting with animals. We lost our family dog of 12 years in January of 2025. For the last 6 years of his life, we worked closely with his primary vet and internal medicine doctor to maintain his autoimmune disease and keep him happy/comfortable. He was very well cared for and loved by many. I have cared for the pets of friends and family over the years when they’ve gone on vacation or simply needed a little assistance. I know first hand how difficult it can be to leave your pet in someone else’s care, especially if they have special medical needs. I am confident that I will treat your pet with the respect and care that would leave your mind at ease and keep me on your speed dial for future needs. I do not have experience administering injection medications but am happy to do so if your dog is used to them and cooperative. My experience with special needs dogs is only with my previous dog with his many medications and dietary restrictions. We are happy to accommodate the best we can with your specific special needs. I am 35, my husband Austin is 33, and our daughter is 11. We live in a humble single story ranch style home where our dog guests are welcome on the furniture and in the bed. Previous dog guests have enjoyed our fenced in back yard! Our neighborhood is 3 connecting streets, which are all dead ends (we don’t see a lot of traffic). In the evenings when it’s time to relax, we enjoy watching tv in our living room. I work a full time job very close to home, which allows me to come home on lunch breaks. My husband is a veteran and is currently in school, with classes once to twice weekly. He is home most days out of the week (if not for the entire day, the majority of the day). We are typically home bodies, so you can expect us home with your loved ones during their stay. I prefer knowing as much as possible about your pet’s daily routines so I can stick to them as closely as possible. I know how uneasy some pets can get when in the care of someone else, or when their family is away, so I do my best to provide them with the things in their lives that they find comfort and routine in. I do have plants in my home. If plants are of a particular interest to your dog, if you prefer me to move them, or if we feel its best to move them, we are more than happy to relocate them to a room that we will keep closed.
“I was anxious about leaving my dog with someone else for the first time in a new state. Kelly went over and above the call of duty to make sure i felt in the loop. She came home tired and happy!”
“Molly was super sweet and took amazing care of our pups!! She sent us updates everyday and lots of pictures to keep me at ease and to ensure my girls were doing okay. I would definitely recommend Molly!!”
