"Five stars for Ginette! Our dog, Cookie, stayed with her for 4 days and had a blast. Ginette was wonderful about sending daily updates so we knew Cookie was happy and settled. It's clear she loves animals and takes her job seriously. Cookie really enjoyed her stay!"

Kristin and her family helped us out with a very last minute request and took great care of Marli. They are great communicators and we got pictures daily. We felt really good about leaving Marli here. She was well loved. We are so appreciative. <3

Skye always has the best time when she stays with Laura and John! We always know we are leaving our girl in the best care. They have a beautiful property and two lovely golden retrievers. Skye always returns to us happy and exhausted from all of the fun and excitement. Highly recommend!

About: Growing up around animals all my life, I've got experience with all kinds of pets! I love dogs and the energy they radiate! I try to go above and beyond with everything I do, and take pride in my work! I will treat your dog as my own, and make sure that by the time you get your fur-baby back, they'll be pooped! All dogs being boarded will have to be friendly with cats as I have one and he is quite timid. I’m trying to stick more to dog walking, but I’d love to board your animal or do drop in visits for you as well! On our walks, you can expect your baby to be mentally stimulated, excersized, and tired by the time they’re home! If arranged, I can do one hour walks instead of the 30 minute walk Rover suggests! Thank you for reading, I can’t wait to meet you!
