2. Jennie & Craig R.

“Jennie and Craig graciously agreed to take our dog, Jetson, on very short notice. They are extremely kind and hospitable, even after Jetson summarily relieved himself on their Christmas tree. 🙄 That was horrifying. They have a huge fenced back yard and their golden retriever was the sweetest thing ever!! So cuddly and sweet!!! I cannot recommend Jennie and Craig highly enough. You can't ask for a better home away from home for your pup.”


3. April C.

“April is AMAZING! I cannot recommend her enough! She is so kind and caring and my puppy Oozo just loves her. He gets excited to go there and comes home happy and content. If I could I would give her many more stars.”


4. Jose & Maria C.

“Jose and Maria took awesome care of our Cockapoo. I received photos and videos of our pet throughout the day. They were active with Marley including walks and time outside. I would definitely look to Jose and Maria to care for Marley again.”

8. Ethan & Hope S.
“Ethan is a true dog person! You would be making a good choice to have him care for your pet. As long as I have known Ethan, he has had dogs who he treats as if they were his children. Even when a dog needs special care, he doesn't hesitate to do what needs to be done for them. Ethan is a loving, responsible and compassionate person. He absolutely can be trusted to provide good care for your pet. I highly recommend Ethan, a person who would be mindful of you and your pet's needs.”


9. Alexandra B.

“Alexandra wonderful with my two little ones when they stayed with her for the day. She sent pictures and they obviously had made themselves at home. I would definitely recommend her.”




10. Alexis C.
“Alexis is wonderful. She took care of my pup over the holidays. Her, David and Addy (her pup) were the perfect hosts, showering Groucho with snuggles, playing tug o'war, or chasing her around the backyard (ok, the last one was just Addy...I think). My dog has had some health issues in the past so Alexis was vigilant in monitoring her and making sure she was healthy throughout her stay, while also sending me adorable photos of the two pups together. Highly recommend !”


11. Sophie L.

“Sophie was a kind and considerate sitter, who clearly loves animals. She was calm and loving with our dog Jack, who is a handful (he has Addison’s disease and can be high stress at times). She sent photo updates through the day so we could track how Jack was doing. I would definitely choose Sophie again!”


12. Gabriella G.

“I can’t say enough good things about Gabriella! She took such amazing care of my pup, Baloo, and truly eased my anxiety about leaving him in another city. Her communication was top-notch throughout, and she was so kind, accommodating, and attentive to Baloo’s needs. She followed all of his routines and rules, which gave me peace of mind knowing he was in great hands. I highly recommend Gabriella without hesitation—10/10! I will definitely be using her services again in the future.”


13. Kristin H.

“Kristin was great. This was Ranger first time at a doggy day care and Kristin was very understanding. She sent me an email that he was doing great and then a follow up picture. Thank you so much Kristin. Will definitely contact you next time we are in Asheville.”

About: I have been taking care of pets for about 5 years and it has been the most rewarding experience of my life to be able to take care of them as if they were mine, rest assured that I respect and love them as if they were my own family, in general we have a lot to learn from our best friends and their pure soul, I like to play with them, spend time walking them and giving them love and attention. For now I have Thursday to Sunday to take care of the pets, it can be in the mornings or afternoons, I will be happy to do it Currently where I live, I have a large front and back yard with a secure fence, pets will have the space and comfort of being outdoors enjoying the sun.
