“Dia was great with our pup, from the time we connected for a meet and greet we felt comfortable. Dia provided great communication and photos throughout our dog's stay. We certainly will entrust her with our fur baby again!”
“Debbie watched our 14 year old golden retriever Maggie for 11 days. She was great with updated photos of Maggie. Maggie was well cared for and we were very happy with Debbie.”
“We love Irma & Daniel! This was our second time using their boarding services for our dog, Sakari, and it is obvious she had a fabulous time and loves them too! We received frequent updates and pictures that let us know Sakari was getting tons of attention, playtime, walks, and love! She can be very weary of newer people, but she warmed right up to them. We will definitely be using their service again in the future!”
“Daisy LOVED her time with Amie & her family. Amie was so kind and updated me throughout the stay. Daisy had the best Thanksgiving with Amie’s puppies. Thank you so much for taking such great care of her!!! Highly recommend Amie ❤️”
“First time using Rover. Mina sent regular photos to let us know how our dog was doing while we were away which was super helpful. Thanks so much for taking good care of her!”
“Ashley was wonderful while watching my very energetic mini poodle!! She sent great updates and photos while I was out of town. My boy clearly felt right at home and I’ll definitely plan on working with Ashley again!”
“I've had my Roxie stay with Dawn a few times now. She loves to run around the yard and play with the other dogs (if any are there). For this visit, Roxie had all Dawn's attention for almost two weeks, which was so nice. I would never think of boarding her at a regular kennel after seeing how much she loves going to Dawn's place!”
“Tara and her family are great!!! Tara boarded my 8 month old high energy puppy, Chantè, for a week with no problem. During her stay, Tara sent tons of pictures of and updated me on how she was doing. When my returning flight was delayed she was very understanding when I couldn’t make the planned pick up time. When I picked up Chantè I could tell she had a blast and was well taken care of. When we got home I could tell she missed her new friends!! Thanks again for everything!!!”
“Susan was great to communicate with and easy to work with. Even when unexpected things came up, she was upfront and worked out a good situation for our dog. She was also flexible with pickup when our flight was an hour delayed getting back.”
“Christina was amazing, she kept us informed the whole time, sent pictures and Forrest had a blast. Our flight was eight hours delayed and she was kind and patient. I highly recommend her for any pet sitting.”
“Lindsey is great with Cosmo! She plays with him, takes him on walks, and takes great care of him. She sends pictures every day and it's clear he's very comfortable with her. We will definitely keep booking with her in the future.”
About: Hi, I’m Sarah! I’m a lifelong animal lover and the proud dog mom of Bella Rose, my rescued miniature dachshund. Caring for Bella has taught me how important patience, consistency, and gentle attention are, especially with shy or nervous dogs. I treat every pet like I would want someone to treat Bella. I’m attentive to routines, feeding instructions, medications, comfort levels, and all the little details that help animals feel safe. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddling, or simply having someone nearby, I’ll adjust to what makes them happiest. I’m also an English student and writer, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pet genuine, one-on-one attention. I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m an online English student and writer, so my schedule is flexible and I spend most of my time at home. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I’m available for walks, drop-ins, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I already plan my days around caring for my own dog, Bella, so making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved is a normal part of my everyday life. I follow each pet’s normal routine and all instructions provided by their owner, including feeding, walks, medications, and house rules. I keep pets supervised, double-check doors and leashes, and never leave them outside unattended. In my home, I introduce pets to Bella slowly and carefully, and I can give them separate spaces when needed. I keep my apartment calm, clean, and comfortable, with plenty of attention and rest time. I’ll also send regular photo and message updates so you always know how your pet is doing.

“We have a very needy senior dog and Heather did a great job with him. He can be high maintenance but she was very kind and patient and sent updates and pictures and said he was welcome back. We were very happy to have found her.”
“Christopher and Cassandra have been great for Diesel. They kept us updates about the stay, sending pictures and videos and letting us know how he was settling in as this was our first time with them. They were flexible with drop off and pickup times and will surely have them at the top of our list for next time.”
About: Starting 5 years ago, I began working in the pet care field as a kennel technician. I have now added veterinary assisting to my repertoire, going on 2 years. This abundance of nuanced experience has allowed me to effectively to care for all pets sick or well, young or old, and small or large! I am currently a full time vet technician, but I can definitely fit in pet-sitting, walk-ins, and or dog walks throughout the week. I usually am home for free time and love to keep busy so I have flexible availability. I usually let my dog free roam the house when we are winding down after a walk or fetch. Interaction is key to a healthy mindset for pets, so I try to entertain them as much as possible!

Dee was amazing with Kosi! 🐾 I really appreciated all the updates and pictures while I was away, it gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was being well taken care of. She was also accommodating when my travel plans changed and I needed to adjust his pickup. Kosi seemed happy and comfortable with her, and I would definitely book with her again. Highly recommend! ❤️
This was Ozzie's 2nd visit with Maureen and when we dropped him off, he didn't seem to care that we were leaving .... at all. Maureen took great care of Ozzie and sent daily updates with pictures while we were away. It definitely makes it less stressful to leave him when you know he is being cared for so well.
Allison took wonderful care of Ollie. We had him at Allsion’s place for six days and she send us photos, videos and update. She was kind enough to give some of her dogs toys and treats to Ollie. From the photos she shared, we could feel he was happy and comfortable. The most special things Allison did for us was to have his paw painted (pet friendly paint) and framed. This was truly a sweet gesture and the perfect gift for his one year birthday. Allison was also truly professional during the whole boarding process. We will definitely recommend Allison as a star sitter.
I boarded my one year old puppy overnight with Jacqueline. What I loved most about my experience was that she sent multiple updates and pictures. I’ve used sitters in the past who would just send one, so getting all the updates made me feel at ease and it was appreciated. I knew when I dropped him off he would be in great hands. When I picked him up, he was whining in the car because he wanted to stay, I could tell he had a ton of fun and was tuckered out….I will definitely use her again!

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Canton home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
