“Rachel and Mike provided an outstanding boarding experience for MY CAT, Fluffy. Awesome!!!! From the moment I left her in their care, I knew she was in the best hands. They consistently went above and beyond, making sure Fluffy received plenty of love, attention, and treats. What really set them apart was the thoughtful updates they provided—seeing pictures of Fluffy enjoying her stay brought us so much peace of mind. Rachel and Mike’s dedication to Fluffy’s comfort was truly remarkable. They even covered additional expenses to ensure she had everything she needed until we could settle up with them. 😉 Their genuine passion for pets is clear in every interaction, and it made a world of difference. If you’re searching for a reliable and caring pet boarding power couple, look no further than Rachel and Mike. They treated Fluffy like their own, and I couldn’t be more grateful. Highly recommend them for anyone who wants the best for their furry family members!”
“Joni was just great! This was a long stay (4 weeks), and we were very fortunate to find her. She took excellent care of our two dogs, and they really liked her. We highly recommend her and hope that we can get her to watch Vivi and Fin if we ever need a sitter again.”
“Kelly helped us out last minute after a cancellation from another sitter and I’m SO glad we found her! I could tell by her updates, with pictures included, that her and her family were loving my pup like their own. He came home with a stylish new bandana and is a happy boy. I would recommend Kelly to everyone and we would definitely use her again!”
“Dana was great! I needed a sitter at the last second and she was able to watch Colbie with no problem. She sent lots of pictures of her during her stay, and treated her just like one of her own dogs. I could tell that Colbie received lots of love and attention and was very happy. She got fresh chicken mixed with her food for dinner every night, and was even allowed to bring her favorite toy home with her. I will definitely be booking with Dana again in the future!”
About: I have had animals ever since I was born and was tasked with taking care of them at a young age. I have two animals myself and believe in treating every pet I see as part of my own family! I am trying to save up enough money to go back to school so help me help you and your furry friends! I work during the week from 8-5 but I am available anytime after 5pm and I am available any time on the weekends as well! I live in a single story ranch home with a large fenced in back yard. Your furry friend will be sharing space with 2 other corgis and cats. My dogs are very dog friendly and love making new friends. All precautions will be taken and I require at least one meet and greet with my dogs before accepting boarding.
“Mikaela is the absolute best!! We had a super fun and friendly meet and greet and I knew my Aussie, Nick would have a fab time. He loved her other 2 dogs and was treated like he was right at home! Mikaela was lovely to communicate with; super clear with details and sent me lots of adorable photos while I was away. Thank you Mikaela, Abby & Cecil for taking great care of my best buddy!! <3”
“Breonna was a great sitter for my dog, Hank, who can be a handful sometimes. She was willing to meet me beforehand to make sure that it was a good match, and she sent pictures and a video while I was away so that I knew Hank was doing well. Not everyone can manage a rambunctious Treeing Walker Coonhound, but Breonna did extremely well, on top of offering an affordable price. If I have to go away again, I will definitely be contacting her. Highly recommend.”
About: I was raised in a farm family and within my father's exotic bird business. I've been taking care of a variety of types of animals since I was a child. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to care for their pets. I have experience working as a dog daycare and kennel employee. I have two dogs of my own and enjoy being an animal caregiver. I have experience rendering first aid. I know what it is to want peace of mind while away from my own pets and I enjoy providing that for other pet people. I love that working with animals teaches me about what it is to be human. I have a flexible schedule to focus on caring for your animal family member. I have plenty of time and attention to devote to spending time with pets. I will treat your service with the utmost professionalism and render the same care and concern to your pets I give to looking after the needs of my own.
