Every time we pack suitcases the dogs get excited because they know they will get to see her.

9. Alexis W.
“We were very pleased to have had Harley stay with Alexis and would 100% recommend her as a host. When I first met her I could tell off the bat she was good with handling dogs. She has a sweet pup of her own and on the morning we dropped off my Harley, Alexis was also taking care of another dog for a few days. At first she had the other dogs outside knowing my dog is a little afraid of other dogs, but brought them in one at a time to introduce to Harley so he wouldn't be afraid and overwhelmed when he first arrived. Alexis was very warm and welcoming to Harley and during the day she contacted me just to assure me Harley was doing well and sent me a couple of photos of him. Alexis also took Harley for walks and knowing he gets seperation anxiety he went on a little outing with her...In the end Harley was a happy dog and I would definitely have Alexis take care of him again!!!”
10. Sarah & Kevin H.
“Sarah and her family are wonderful caring pet owners. We met at a dog park when she loved on Louie the lab and now she is a kind attentive owner of 2 beagles Clark and Eddie. Her husband and kiddos love on the dogs and care for them as well. Sarah is a special education therapist with a heart for special needs children which shows in her patience with four legged friends.”
11. Megan A.
“My little girl had a fun day with Megan and her cute dog Spud. I was able to drop her off early in the morning and she was tired and ready to go home later that afternoon. Megan sent pictures of my dog during the day and I felt good that my dog was having more fun with Megan than lying around the house watching me work! Thank you Megan!”
12. Lavar & Amber M.
“Amazing. Reliable. Trustworthy. Loving. Fun. These are all words that come to mind when we entrust our furry family to Lavar and Amber. I'm grateful to have them care for our littles any time we have to go out of town.”
13. Ivy W.
“Puts up with my two pups that can be a bit rude and jump on her sometimes :) They love to see her and turn into wiggle-butts when they see her. She seems to love every critter out there, and the critters know it. She’s always been super responsive about scheduling. Highly recommended.”
14. Lisa G.
“Lisa is phenomenal! I was visiting from out of town, and she absolutely came to the rescue! She is caring, compassionate, responsible, intuitive, and joyful!!! My little dog LOVED going to day care at Lisa's and was at home immediately in Lisa's care. Please don't hesitate to use Lucy for your dog care needs. She is the best!!!”

20. Ashley B.
“Ashley is phenomenal with pets! I have seen first hand how well she interacts and cares for my dog in my home when I am away and rely on her services to care for my pet. My dog always gets so excited when she comes to visit! Additionally, I have seen the way that Ashley cares for her own dog, and that same high level of care that she provides for her own is what you can expect from Ashley if she cares for your beloved pets! Ashley is great with adhering to schedules and providing all the necessities and comforts that your pet will need to be happy and healthy while you are away. I would highly recommend Ashley as a caregiver to anyone looking for high quality care for their pets while you are away from them!”
