“Because my doggo has pretty high anxiety, I was nervous to leave him overnight. But Stephen made it really easy by sending pictures/videos and updating me throughout my pups stay. I also loved that Stephen has a fenced in yard that my pup could enjoy the nice weather in. Stephen was incredibly patient with my nervous pup and it was greatly appreciated!”

4. Ashley D.
“Ashley was amazing!! This was the first time I've ever left my dog with a stranger (always had family watch her) and Ashley made the process so smooth. She was extremely communicative, always sending photos and videos. My prim was extremely happy there, playing with her dogs, and following Ashley around all day. I could tell from the photos just how happy and content she was. I will absolutely book again and really recommend Ashley to other pet parents. My baby was safe, happy, and loved her stay there.”

About: I’ve taken care of big dogs to little dogs and even cats since I was very young. I have some knowledge of veterinary care as I’ve interned at vet clinics and have worked at an animal shelter. I’m also in college studying animal science:) I’m currently unemployed as I’m focusing on my academics. But I still want to gain experience and be around animals. So I am available anytime weekdays or weekends. So I have plenty of time to care for your pets. I would provide care to your pets exactly how you would. I would treat them as if they’re my pets and give them plenty of love.
