She is our new go-to for all our boarding/sitting needs and we absolutely recommend her to anyone else needing those services. Thank you Shannon!!”

12. Becky S.
About: I have always had dogs, cats, and various pets. I am retired and love having the four-legged babies around for company. We have two (2) dogs but they are welcoming to new friends to play with. I have done rescue, fostering and transport and I’d love to care for your dog when you need me. I am retired and love to garden and I take care of my own yard. This makes a for a wonderful place to leave your fur babies and let me spoil them. Our yard is medium size and I spend most nice days outside. If it’s raining we cuddle on the couch and read or watch TV. I have a six (6) foot privacy fence and it has a concrete footing to prevent digging. The yard is medium size and I keep it clean for sanitary and playing purposes, There is a large deck with a canopy for lounging and plenty of toys both inside and out. I have been sitting and keeping dogs, cats, and pets of all kinds for many years and I would love to keep your fur baby when you need me.


13. Randi R.

“My pups really enjoyed staying with Randi and Pippa over the holiday weekend! This was their first stay and will be back again. Randi set up a meet and greet at a dog park and made sure our dogs got along. Her little chihuahua Pippa is so sweet and my two small dogs became buddies with her. Randi has a nice backyard in a quiet neighborhood. She sent photos and updates during their stay. My pups really felt at home!”


14. Sarah W.

“Sarah is AWESOME. My pup loves her! She sends pictures and videos and really loves animals. She’s also very flexible. I highly recommend her!”




15. Amber J.

“Amber was very easy to work with. And she took great care of our dog, Alistair. She sent pictures throughout the weekend showing us how he was doing. We would definitely use her again.”


16. Ashtin H.

“Awesome with the dogs. She absolutely love what she do and that makes a world of difference when leaving your fur baby. Provide updates often. Will definitely use again!!”


17. Ranee A.

“They were lovely and took great care of our little dog. They were flexible, sent updates, and photos. We will definitely repeat the experience.”


18. Jessica B.

“Jessica took such good care of my spoiled pup who is never away from me. It’s nice to know Bella has a place to stay if we need one. Being able to stay and sit with people on the couch and get covered up with her blanky at night and sleep next to people is much better than being boarded somewhere.”


19. Charlene G.

“Charlene and Felix were wonderful with my extra scared puppy. They provided warm and loving care with lots of pictures and videos. I would definitely feel comfortable using them again.”


20. Crystal B.

“Crystal was very nice and informative! She updated me with pictures and health updates everyday. Because my dog is older with some issues, it made being away from her less stressful. I am very thankful how well Crystal took care of our little old lady!”
