2. Heather & Robert K.

“Heather was AMAZING. She helped me out when I had to go out of town quickly. Then kn the way to my house got into a car accident some ppl would’ve turned around and went home nope she came and still took care of my babies. She was great and very helpful communication was much better on her end than mine. I already have her booked for June and most likely again in the July/Aug. thanks again”

“I highly recommend Bettina :) she stepped in at the last minute for me and Carl while i was already on a trip. As soon as we started talking i felt like I could trust her with my dog and in my home. She was so helpful in every aspect and really just stepped up for someone that hasn’t worked with us before. I was really impressed and my wife and i hope to work with her again in the future on a more regular basis. Thanks again Bettina”

I know that Scott is my number 1 option every time I go out of town and need some help with my precious family member.”


9. Kathleen A.

“Kathleen was absolutely amazing! She did drop-ins for my pets while I was out of town for a last minute trip, she even came early when my pup didn’t go to the bathroom the previous visit. Such a sweet and caring person, all of her updates and photos made me happy while I was away! My pets loved her ☺️”

15. Jenna O.

“Jenna does an excellent job with my puppy Spud, listens to what I have asked in terms of how to spend the time, is respectful to my belongings, also gives me plenty of feedback to put my mind at ease as a new dog dad that all is going well during the session. Thanks Jenna!”


16. Shannon S.

“Shannon watched our dogs regularly for about 3 years. We have two smaller rescue pups (a maltipoo and yorkie) who are high-energy, but very skittish and it didn’t take long for them to warm up to her and love their “Aunt Shannon.” She put them at ease and gave them all the love and attention they wanted. She would even send us photos of our pups being cute and happy. We were pretty devastated when she moved to Michigan and we had to find someone else. It felt like part of our family had left.”


17. Maxwell F.
“Max is a great caretaker for many animals, ranging from reptiles to cats and dogs, with a specially familiarity in all things reptiles. He truly cares for and treats animals with the utmost respect and dignity.”




18. Jacki M.

“Jacki was so amazing with my kitty! She took incredible pictures and left me detailed notes of a play by play of what they did during the visit. She also is very prompt and timely. She is very sweet with my kitty—she rarely comes out and is shy, but Jacki got her to come out of her shell. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”


19. sogol v.
“Sogol is a very caring, compassionate and responsible animal lover. I have left my cats in her care when I have traveled out of town with no worries. I would happily recommend her anytime!”


20. Abby A.
About: I have always had a love for dogs growing up and often took care of friend's and family's dogs while they were out of town. I loved getting to give their pups extra love and attention while their humans were gone. Once I got to college and needed a summer job I was lucky enough to work at a doggy daycare where I learned how to take care of all ages from puppies to senior dogs and make them feel at home in a new environment. I work part time so I have plenty of time to give to your pup. I am available for drop-in visits and walks all day Monday,Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday as well as Friday after 1 pm. I have a quiet and safe neighborhood to walk your pup in as well as a very friendly mini bernedoodle to keep your pup company. I will treat your dog as if they are my own!
