“Amanda was fantastic! She communicated promptly and clearly prior to the drop-off, and took really good care of our aging corgi for a whole week. We got regular updates while we were away. She clearly cares about animals very much and makes sure that all members of her family behave in a way that the visiting dog can understand and be comfortable with. I highly recommend Amanda!”
“This is Stella’s second family. I can’t say enough positive things about them! Pictures of Stella, and notes about how she is doing daily - I always feel so comfortable leaving her with them :)”
“Keasha and her family took great care of Bagel! I was confident that my dog was in good hands. Will certainly come back to Keasha when I travel again. I can’t recommend her enough.”
“Moose LOVES when we go away and its only bc he gets to go see his second family at zachs . Hes loved and spoiled the same way we would at home. Zach is definitely a great choice for pet sitting.”
“Celina was wonderful. She made Maui's time with her and her pup Smokey, so great. Big yard, plenty of room to run and snuggle time when inside. She also made it easier to leave Maui with her wonderful personality and openess to let Maui do things on her timetable. She was very good at sharing photos and videos of Maui's time with her. I will use her services whenever I have to step out of town and not have to worry about my little pupper.”

About: I am extremely passionate about providing nothing but the best care for your precious pet. As a pet owner I truly understand what it's like to need pet care and how much it means to find someone I could truly trust to keep my pets safe and happy. I've been caring for pets for over 15 years and can't wait to meet yours. I recently stepped down from my high stress full-time position of 9 years in order to pursue a simpler life and follow my passions. So, I have open availability to care for your pets! I have a large fenced-in yard with a small doggie pool and agility tunnel. Not to mention tons of toys! I also am the mama to two extremely friendly pug mix doggies jack who is 14 and Kuzco who is 6 months! They love making new friends and will be sure to welcome your pet to the pack!
“Maggy was great!! She was very responsive, took care of our baby like her own, administered meds, kept me informed and feeling relaxed while we were away. We didn’t have to worry. Thank you so much Maggy!!”
“Gilbert was absolutely amazing with Diesel! We got multiple videos daily of Diesel and Moon running around the yard, playing with each other. We got updates on how he did every day! Diesel was a very happy boy during his stay. We will definitely come back to Gilbert again when we need a sitter for Diesel. ☺️”
“Briana is amazing! Sends great pictures of the dogs playing daily and is quick to respond to any questions. Finn always has a blast with her huskies and the other friends boarding.”
“Our two little dogs, Penny and Lulu, stayed with Mary and her family for the first time this past weekend. As always, I was nervous about leaving the dogs with a new person, but they loved their stay. I could see from the pictures that Mary sent that they were having fun with her and her kids. When we picked them up, they looked happy and relaxed. I couldn't ask for more. I would highly recommend Mary and hope P & L can stay with her again soon.”
“Cherylee and Steven are really amazing! They took great care of my pet, Benben. Every day, they sent me pictures of Benben, so I knew he was happy and safe. Benben felt very comfortable with them, like he was at home. I am very thankful for their help. I will book with them again next time for sure!”
“BooBoo had such a wonderful time with JoAnn and had so much fun with her dog Penelope. JoAnn was so attentive to her needs, and went out of her way to ensure my girl felt safe, secure and happy, and was eating. She gave me peace of mind throughout each day checking in with updates and photos and videos. BooBoo loved the fenced in back yard to run freely with her new pal Penelope, who is a bundle of respectful joy. Thank you JoAnn!”
