Andrea and her family were amazing with our family pet Tank. In addition to detailed updates on eating and drinking, she made sure he had his meds which are crucial to his health. We were so worried about leaving our pet for a week but Andrea made sure to comfort us every day that things were fine. We simply can’t thank her enough for the opportunity to see our beloved grandchildren whom all live miles away. Thank you so very much!

Barbra took amazing care of my little senior yorkie and he had a blast staying with her. She kept me updated while I was away and sent the cutest pictures. You can tell Barbra cares about animals and wants to make sure they are comfortable during their stay. I 100% recommend her services to anyone who reads this!!

The fact that Courtney is a vet was one of the reasons I reached out to see if she was able to watch Sunny for a weekend while I was out of town due to how anxious she can get. Let me tell you, she did not disappoint. During the meet and greet, she asked about emergency vet info and offered her office as an option for urgent but non-emergency situations since I don’t have a primary emergency vet. She was aware of Sunny’s needs while she was there. Courtney also kept great communication and sent lots of videos and pics during her stay. I would 10/10 recommend her and will definitely be booking services with her again when the time comes!

Totiyana provided such a loving experience for our fur baby, Emmie. She is not used to being around other dogs especially big dogs but Totiyana help her get comfy and before you knew it Emmie was settled. We appreciate Totiyana’s flexibility and being able to take our last minute request! Such a blessing! We appreciate her care so much we booked two weekends in a row! Looking forward for future bookings for boarding our needs.

Jen and her husband Dan are the best! Jen is always our first choice of pet sitter and we’ve used her multiple times now. You can tell she has such a heart for dogs and is willing to do whatever they need. Our dog has some separation anxiety, but Jen helps to make him feel so comfortable and at home. He loves her!

The sweetest people! They agreed to take my puppy less than a week before my trip(after I got canceled on and started stressing). I was super nervous since this was the first time leaving him but I wrote instructions and I feel as though they followed every single one! I got picture updates as requested and when they had questions they asked. He got plenty of playtime and outdoor/potty time! They also didn't mind us bringing our crate to their home since were are crate training snd he sleeps in there. I will definitely use them again in the future! Thank you so much for taking Waffle into your home and treating him like your own!

Yvonne and Joseph did a great job with Duke! It was our first time to be away from him for 24 hours and it was great to have frequent communication from them throughout that period, in the form of texts, pictures and short video. It helped to know Duke was in good hands and happy. We will definitely request them again in the future if needed.

About: I have had 3 dogs growing up so use to handling multiple at one time. Also my shih tzu that passed had severe skin allergies so I have experience with medical baths and diets. I work from home 3 days a week so home all day MWF, Tuesdays and Thursdays I am in the office but only a 10 min drive away and can walk them during lunch and be back home with your doggo before dinner! I live in a neighborhood with sidewalks and a park, personally have a well sized yard and back deck for lots of outdoor fun! Currently I own 2 guniea pigs but they’re quiet and kept on an elevated surface no dog has been bothered by them before. Lots of toys and 2 beds here to play with but encourage to bring your pet’s favorites here as well.

Our dog loves staying with Susan so much that she starts getting excited as soon as we take the interstate exit toward her house. Our girl can be a handful; she’s a rescue and reactive to other dogs, stubborn, incredibly smart, and needs a lot of stimulation and attention or she’ll absolutely find her own trouble. But somehow, Susan handles her with total ease and so much genuine care. Susan’s home has become our dog’s vacation spot. She has her favorite cozy places to nap, a huge fully fenced yard to explore, and so much time outside playing, sniffing around, exploring the garden, and bird-watching. Most impressively, Susan somehow taught our dog to play ball after over a year of us trying unsuccessfully to get her interested at home. She truly has a magic touch with animals that enriches their lives and ours. Susan is also wonderfully communicative and kind. Drop-offs and pickups feel less like a transaction and more like visiting a friend who genuinely loves your dog. Every time our dog comes home healthy, happy, and completely exhausted in the best way, like a kid returning from summer camp. We honestly can’t imagine leaving her anywhere else.

Elisabeth is simply the Best! The care and support she has provided for Pluto is something I will be always grateful for. Pluto is an anxious kid and also suffering from epilepsy, so he needs to take a lot of medication and Elisabeth made sure that he receives his medication on time and also went above and beyond to keep him happy. I received regular updates, and could really see Pluto having so much fun, regularly going out to different stores, playing in backyard or spending time with her wonderful family. I would highly recommend her to everyone. 🙏 thank you again.

A awesome sitter! She took care of my baby as if she was her own. She gave her medication and baths and put on her cream. She provided messages and photos. I will definitely rebook her if she’s available to accommodate our needs.

Paige is absolutely incredible! If you’re searching for a home away from home for your furry friends, look no further, Paige is the perfect choice. She excels at communication, providing regular updates with pictures and detailed descriptions of what the dogs have been up to, ensuring peace of mind at all times. Paige has also been very flexible in accommodating our schedule. She made sure our girls were well-fed, walked, and, above all, showered with love and snuggles. Our dogs enjoyed their stay so much that one of my huskies even tried to go back inside when we came to pick them up! I couldn’t recommend Paige highly enough!
