“I was very impressed Marie and Mark. When we first went to meet them, Marie took Luna off her leash so she could explore the house. Luna jumped up on the couch to be next to them. They did not care and just petted her. The pics the sent was Luna going on walks and curled up next to them. I felt very comfortable Luna was just fine. Will use, for sure, again.”


“Jaymie and her kids were the BEST! Our spoiled dog got loads of attention and she sent fun photos throughout his stay. Would 100% use her again!”

“Billie Jo took our pup on very short notice... like an hours notice. She sent pics and took her for a walk. She has a great home and provided A+ care.”


“They were flexible with drop off pick up time, sent regular pictures and the dogs were happy when we picked them up. Will definitely board with them again!”


“We enjoyed all the picture updates and great communication leading up to and throughout our dog’s stay! He came home happy and relaxed - thanks, Kayla!”


“Miranda and her family welcomed Whiskey into their home like he was their own! Whiskey had been coming home sick when he was boarded in the past from anxiety so we needed a change. He was comfortable at Miranda’s house and loved playing with the other dogs.”



“Michelle and the K9 Kastle are AWESOME! The vibe I got from Michelle on our meet-n-greet was so comforting and I knew the minute I met her that he would love staying there-she has a great backyard the pups can play in, interacts with them, and takes them on several daily walks. Throughout the weekend she sent pictures and videos of Rufus that clearly showed how much fun he was having during his stay. This was Rufus's 2nd time staying with Michelle and when we drove away from her house after picking him up he stared out the back window, not wanting to leave the fun. I highly recommend the K9 Kastle and will be forever be a client!”


About: I provide a safe and comfortable environment pets, dogs deserve so much respect and love and I’m willing to give them so much attention! I also love the outdoors so I would love having a little walking partner. My dogs have been through training and therefore I am aware of the do’s and donts of proper training. I have ONE lab at home, she is a female 1 y/o lab. I currently work from home Wednesday - Friday. I work in the office Monday and Tuesday. This is subject to change week to week as my schedule varies. I use my back yard which has a leash hooked to the deck. Half of my yard is fenced in. I am open to using a shocker as well, we use one on our pup and strictly use the tone button which just sounds like a beep.


“Beth was awesome. My dog was being a dog and had a medical issue (by no fault of Beth at all) while he was with her and she got a hold of me immediately and took Ryker to the vet for me. She handled it perfectly!! I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter. She kept me updated on how Ryker was doing and sent me pictures frequently.”


About: I will do anything to make sure my fur babies have everything they need. From spoiling them with love to making sure they have enough food and water. I also make sure my cats have their litter box cleaned daily. Overall, I am flexible with scheduling, I am reliable, trust worthy and will make sure your precious animals have everything they need. I am currently working overnights on Saturdays. I ALWAYS check before I go ANYWHERE to make sure my babies have food and water. Stuff that they can't get into is up and put out of reach. I always spend time with them before I go for however long they want and need. Their happiness comes first. I treat them like my own children. (Don't have children yet) I am very flexible and will take a lot of my time out fo the day to make sure they are happy. I don't go out much anymore. I am a homebody but when I do, I always come back home for my babies. I make sure the house is cleaned, keeping an eye on what the animals get into to make sure they are okay. Making sure the living conditions are sanitary. Spoiling them with toys and love. Just overall making sure they are happy and healthy. At the same time, asking questions when needed and giving the owners updates throughout the day:) I also am very open and flexible when it comes to animal sitting.
