“Deanne was a lifesaver - not only did she agree to take our cat Tulip on such short notice, but she helped me with my separation anxiety with such kindness and empathy. Deanne went out of her way to send pictures and videos of Tulip having a great time, which meant the world to me. Tulip was clearly happy, well taken care of, and now I have to buy her a cat tree since the one Deanne provided brought her so much joy. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart - Brianna”
“Mikayla was super accommodating to our hectic schedule and helped work around some funny times that we had. She sent picture updates of my dog and her response time was fast whenever I had questions or was just checking in. We did a meet and greet before boarding to make sure she was a perfect fit for my crazy goofy dog and it was a sure hit! I felt safe and comfortable leaving my dog with Mikayla and I will definitely be using her services again for future boarding. 10/10 recommend!”
“Rocky seemed to really enjoy his overnight. The icing on the cake we believe was his opportunity to play with Brooke's nice dog and her young son! Thanks for the picture!”
“We needed someone to board our 5-year-old pup over Thanksgiving weekend, and we were lucky to find Tetiana. She was a dream to work with! She was very accommodating and communicative (we received updates and photos every day), and her house was very calm and clean. Best of all, she really cares about animals and went above and beyond to make our dog comfortable. We look forward to working with her again soon!”
“I felt great leaving our dog with Jennifer. She is so kind and clearly loves animals. She already had a number of pet supplies and toys which made things even easier since I was traveling at the time I had booked for boarding. She sent updates and was flexible with drop off and pick up times. I would definitely book with her again.”
“Brigid was perfect for my older dog Scout. She is very loving and attentive. Scout seemed very content with Brigid, who kept me updated with photos and videos. I couldn't have asked for a better sitter for Scout.”
“Sylvia and Mark (and fam) are great. They took great care of my old girl and were super understanding of her evolving idiosyncrasies. Would definitely trust them again and highly recommend.”
“I felt very comfortable knowing my fur baby was in capable and caring hands with Cheryle! Poppy absolutely loves visiting and hanging out with Jester and Cheryle was very understanding about delays that came up in my travel plans and was very flexible. Definitely my go to sitter!”
“Candice was absolutely wonderful!!!!!!!! This was my first time leaving my baby boy with anyone! I was kept updated with messages and pics. Would definitely recommend and/or book with Candice again.”
“Maegan was great! She responded quickly each time I contacted her. Maegan's house and yard are well set up for a visiting dog. She is relaxed and calm and well-prepared. Drop-off and pick-up were very easy. My little dog seemed comfortable in Maegan's house. I was given an update and a picture of my dog while I was away. I would happily choose Maegan as a sitter again.”
“Vera was nothing short of amazing. Her professionalism is outstanding! She has definitely found her calling. Vera immediately became family. We are excited for this new relationship!”
“Mary & Todd are a dream come true! We were very nervous leaving our baby with someone we didn’t know, for the first time, and Mary made us feel so beyond comfortable. The photos, updates and check ins made us think Tilly may never want to come back home! Our pup went for rides, walks, runs, errands, ball chases and partook in endless fun for two straight days. I’m not sure how Mary & Todd could possibly have more energy than our dear Tilly but she’s officially exhausted and had the adventure of a lifetime. My husband joked that we should do this as a doggy camp once a month, we just may ask if they’d be down!”
“This was our first time booking with Kyle, and she was great! Our pup can be rather anxious initially when going somewhere new, but she relaxed very quickly with Kyle. Kyle was always responsive and reassuring, and sent lots of photo updates. Traveling is hard for me because I hate being away from my "kids", but I was able to relax and enjoy my scheduled time away because of Kyle. Ripley can't wait to book again!”
“Jayla was sooo sweet with my boy! He has separation anxiety and I can tell Jayla was very attentive and gave the best care for him. Can't thank Jayla enough:)”
“It was nice knowing the dogs would have a great time while we were away. They had so many other dogs to play with and so much land to run, play and sniff. Definitely going to board here again when we travel.”
About: Friends and family members have trusted me to care for their furry loved ones for as long as I can remember. Our furry friends deserve just as much love and care as we do. I work from home three days out of the week, so I am able to care for pets during the day. I am also incredibly available throughout the weekends and each weeknight. I maintain a consistent daily routine for feeding, potty breaks, and playtime to keep pets feeling secure and comfortable. I keep clients updated with photos and updates on their pets' well-being, so they can feel confident that their furry friend is in good hands. I create a pet-friendly environment with plenty of space for pets to roam, play, and relax. I ensure all areas are pet-proofed and free from hazards. Pets receive lots of attention, playtime, and cuddles. I offer enrichment activities like toys and outdoor walks.
“I am grateful to Imonia for taking care of my dog, who can be a bit of a challenge due to his protective nature and occasional resource guarding. She been a very understanding of his temperament and managed him with patience and care. I really appreciate her willingness to work with his quirks and make him feel comfortable. It’s not easy to find someone who can handle a dog with specific behavioral needs, and Imonia did a commendable job. I would recommend her to anyone who needs a patient and attentive caregiver for their pet.”
“Amanda was amazing with my high-energy dog! Darla got to go on long walks, even a hike, and made sure she got plenty of exercise and attention. I really appreciated Amanda’s patience and care—my dog came home happy and tired! Highly recommend for anyone, Darla can’t wait to go back.”
“Emily was an excellent pet sitter! Our pup has a new best friend! She kept us informed with plenty of updates and sent lots of great photos. We will definitely use her again if we need a sitter. Thanks Emily!”
