“Peanut just had her first stay with Elizabeth and Gary. What a wonderful caring couple, they adored Peanut for the weekend and Peanut was very happy and tired when I got her home. They sent me pictures throughout the day of her stay over which was sweet and she looked so happy. And were happy to work with me on any little small issues she has with being left away from us, surprisingly she had a peaceful happy weekend. I have booked her again in the summer and she is so conveniently close to where i live which is a bonus. Thankyou so much ! The Walker Family”
“We were worried leaving Dexter with a sitter as he is generally very oriented and has anxiety issues. Lynn put us at ease the first day we were away with pictures that showed Dexter was happy and well taken care of. He got lots of attention and walks .We are happy, and sure Dexter was happy with Lynn and her husband. We would defiantly use Lynn again.”
“Adlynn and her family, two doggies and partner, did an outstanding job of caring for my dog. He was very nervous and not used to being away from me. Adlynn was able to gradually get him to feel safe and he really enjoyed the rest of the time there. I would highly recommend!”
“Morgan took such great care of Ollie while we were away! He absolutely loved his stay, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in good hands.

It was clear that Ollie was happy, comfortable, and well cared for throughout his stay. We would definitely book with Morgan again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter! ❤️”

“Takes good care of pet. However, it is good note that she seems to take care of other dogs at the same time as far as I could ascertain … also, she has a very friendly golden retriever, which is good. My main tip to her is that she should take more videos and photos throughout the day of the babysat dog and interactions with her other dogs. Regardless of all the points mentioned above, the service isgenerally high quality. We would book her again.”
About: Hello, and welcome! Having cared for dogs and cats my entire life, reading pet body language and anticipating their needs comes completely naturally to me. What further sets me apart is my formal background in Veterinary Office Administration. I bring medical knowledge, medication safety, and clinical insight straight into your pet's daily routine. I specialize in slow-paced, gentle care for senior dogs and am fully qualified to administer oral medications on a strict schedule. When new pups arrive, I use a structured 20-minute yard decompression and gate-introduction protocol to keep energy calm, safe, and positive right from the start. – Chantel T. As a lifelong pet lover, caring for animals is a central and rewarding focus for me. Because I manage my routine directly from home, my availability for dog boarding and daycare is wonderfully flexible. Your pup will enjoy continuous companionship, active supervision, and structured care throughout their stay. I also maintain an open communication window from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM daily for messages, updates, and booking inquiries. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I offer care in my cozy 700 sq. ft. home, which features a fully fenced 1,800 sq. ft. backyard with 5 ft fencing—perfect for safe outdoor play and sniffing sessions. To ensure a calm, low-stress setup, I host up to 2 boarding pup’s at a time (boarding/daycare) so every guest gets 1-on-1 attention alongside my resident beagle, Ruby. (Please note: while I grew up with cats and offer local drop-in visits for feline friends in their own space, my home is strictly reserved for dog guests only!)
“We had Shiloh stay with William and his daughter for a few days while we went on a family trip to the US. He was very good about communicating and sending updates and photos. Shiloh seemed to be very happy and comfortable with them. They were very nice and I would definitely contact them again the next time we go away. I would recommend William for anyone looking to make sure their dog is in good hands”
“We feel so lucky to have found Nora! She took wonderful care of Kobe over the long weekend while we were away, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Nora is caring, dedicated, and attentive to the little details. We especially appreciated that she asked thoughtful questions before giving Kobe treats or making decisions about his activities. Knowing she respected his diet and our instructions gave us complete peace of mind. She kept us updated with plenty of pictures, and we loved seeing Kobe enjoying his walks, getting cuddles, and even being her little gardening assistant! He came home happy and very relaxed, which says a lot about how comfortable he felt with her. We would absolutely book with Nora again whenever she’s available and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will really care for their dog. Thank you, Nora, for making Kobe’s stay so enjoyable and allowing us to enjoy our weekend without worrying!”
“First time in 15 years that we have left our chihuahua alone with someone other than our family. "Pedro" was well taken care of and by the pictures sent to us by Smita, probably enjoyed himself more than staying home. We would use Smita again to take care of "Pedro"”
