“Jane is wonderful with Oliver, our 4 year old labradoodle. She treats him like her own dog. She’s very loving and patient. She is easy to work with and always eager to please. Oliver is very relaxed and happy when we pick him up, unlike when we pick him up from a noisy kennel. We will be using her again and again.”


“Jared was great! Amazing communication, constantly kept me updated on my dog throughout the day with photos and videos. My dog absolutely loved boarding with him and his pups. Would recommend. You can tell he truly cares about animals and will treat yours just like his own.”


“Madison gave Bea good care while I was away and made her feel safe and comfortable. She was thoughtful with walks and puppy activities, even in the cold!”



“Thank you for taking care of Ginger. I was nervous since this was my first time to leave her. Karen did a brief meet and greet meeting before the boarding to make sure I could ask questions and both Ginger and I felt comfortable. Karen seemed very observant of Ginger and bonded with her quickly. I could tell Ginger also felt comfortable around her and at her house. Thank you.”


“Kim did an amazing job hostessing my senior dog - I think he was sad to leave because she provided such a nice stay-cation. She updated me regularly about meals, walks, etc. and spent a lot of quality time with my boy, treating him like he was her own.”


“Jenna and her family provided our 17m oGolden retriever with best care when we go away for weekends or weeks. Coco loves going to their house! We trust Jenna with Coco’s safety and well-being while we are gone. Recommend her highly!”


“Just picked up my dog, Benny, from Katherine’s. He had a wonderful time and was well taken care of with Katherine. She loved him like one of her own. I’ve already booked another stay in May! She is wonderful!”


“I highly recommend Taylor, Brian, and their sweet boy, Shiloh! This was my first time leaving my rescue Scout, and I wasn't sure how she'd do. They took excellent care of her and sent updates and photos throughout my trip. Scout and Shiloh hit it off right away, and I think being in a home with another dog, rather than a boarding facility, helped Scout adjust to being away from me. This was a great experience from start to finish.”


“Nicole was amazing with our pup! She was incredibly kind and patient with our nervous dog and made sure Rosie was well taken care of while we were away. I really appreciated her communication. We were able to troubleshoot ideas to get Rosie comfortable and I loved all the photos showing their adventures and cuddles. I would absolutely book with Nicole again!”


“Bradley was amazing with Chinook and Apache! They had a great time during their stay—Bradley kept me updated with plenty of pictures, and the boys looked so happy when I picked them up. Now they’re both passed out asleep at home, which tells me they had a fun and active time! I’ll definitely be booking with Bradley again. Highly recommend!”



“Stacy was amazing with Mikal and it looked like he had so much fun with his new friends!! He came back a very tired puppy from all the playing and we will definitely be coming back again!”


“We are so happy to have found Rover and Scotty! He had our Huxley for 6 nights in his home. Huxley had a little separation anxiety at the beginning of his stay and Scotty was very patient and communicative. It's clear he has a lot of experience and truly cares for dogs. By the end it seemed Huxley was having a blast! We got lots of photos and a video. We missed our bud but were so grateful he was in good hands. We'll definitely be reaching out in the future!”


“Kenny took wonderful care of our pup over the weekend. She was well taken care of and got tons of attention, and he followed her routines closely. They had so much fun together even in rainy weather.”


“Natalie is wonderful! We appreciate how kind and gentle she is, how she is willing to care for our very busy puppy, and also how she didn’t hesitate at all when we asked if she’d be willing to help with medication he needed. We are so grateful!! ❤️”


“Amy was great! She sent thoughtful updates and pictures of our pup during his stay with her. She was understanding and flexible when our travel plans changed, as well. Our pup had a great time with Amy!”


“Jennifer and Robert were incredibly accommodating and made our Lucy feel right at home during her stay. We are so grateful for your kindness and care. Highly recommend!”


“We love leaving our dog with Carrie, who is always such a wonderful caregiver and also a great and friendly person who we enjoy talking with when we drop off and pick up our pet. Thanks Carrie!”


“So happy with how my boys were taken care of! I received pics & videos.”


About: I've had cats and dogs my whole life and I am very advanced with them! I've given oral and eye medication to day olds and 10+ years old. I would love to have regulars!! I'm currently working part time, 2 days a week as a server. So I have plenty of time of help with your animals! Mornings, lunch, or nights! I have a fenced in yard that is perfect for playing! I also have a route that I walk everyday perfect for a small or large dog!

“The experience, professionalism, kindness and care Aoife showed while keeping my fur baby is next level. Finding her was truly a blessing. We were updated daily with photos and activity summaries. She actually cares about animals. It resonates through her actions. She took my dog on a 5 mile walk :). He looked so happy! I will be booking again. We are so very satisfied. She’s a diamond!!!!!”

Nicole was absolutely amazing with our Bear! She spoiled him rotten and kept me feeling very comfortable with constant pictures and updates. We will definitely we having her sit our pup again in the future! Thank you so much!

Hannah is kind and flexible and loved our Winnie as her own. We ended up having last minute changes in our schedule and in our dog’s medical needs, and Hannah was easy to communicate with and work with about those issues.

My dog had a great time with Erin! She was very attentive in making sure all of her needs would be taken care of before the stay, and kept me updated with how they were doing throughout. Will definitely be using again in the future.

Syd was amazing! He was super open and very communicative. Our babies had a bit more anxiety than we anticipated, and he really catered their needs. We are super grateful!

Kiki was fantastic. She was very flexible with a meet and greet prior to boarding. She sent updates and pictures. My dog was well taken care of. I would not hesitate to work with Kiki again. She loves animals and cares for them like her own.

Cara is one of the best sitters I’ve ever used and would highly recommend her to anyone. Clover had an amazing time playing with Maya and came home happy and tired! I felt nothing but comfortable the entire weekend I away. It’s clear Cara has a ton of experience with dogs and I also got a bunch of updates throughout the trip!

She was nothing short of amazing! She treated my pup like her own. She sends tons of beautiful pictures from their walks and kept in constant communication with us! I will definitely book with Kiara again!

Aoife was reliable, caring, and trustworthy. Our dog bonded immediately with her. . It gives us such peace of mind to know our dog is so well cared for in our absence. she updated me daily and sent the cutest picture of our dog allowing him sit on her bed. thank you so much Aoife we will go with her again and again.

Sidney is absolutely amazing! She has watched our dog several times now, and we wouldn’t use anyone else. We feel very lucky to have found such a kind, considerate, amazing human to entrust with our “fur baby”. One hundred percent recommend.

Courtney is amazing and so are her furry babies. Mimosa has only been there once but we already have many many more visits planned. Courtney works around odd schedules, is quick with communication, and she clearly knows what she’s doing with the pup because mimosa came home so happy and tired. Can’t recommend her enough!

Jessica was fantastic with our mini goldendoodle! She sent daily updates and supported us when our flight home was delayed. We would definitely book with Jessica again!

Kourtney is amazing! She updated us on our pup while we were away and is so kind and understanding! Our dog loves her and loves staying with her!

James was a great host for our dog! She has a lot of quirks and James was very accommodating and made her feel comfortable. He was always quick to respond when I reached out to see how she was doing! We look forward to using James again!

Amazing sitter watched my dog like it was her own. Hopefully, Napoleon can spend more time with her. This truly was a great experience.

Always grateful to Carrie and her kids. They do a wonderful job taking care of Somi and are great at sending updates and pictures. It makes going away a lot easier when you know your puppy's in good hands.

Nataly was wonderful! I felt June was very well cared for while we were out of town, especially as a more anxious dog. Would highly recommend!

Katie is great! She has watched our dogs multiple times, and we trust her completely. She sends pictures of the girls, which we love to see.

Dirk was great with Willow. Was super attentive to her and sent me pictures and updates throughout the day!
