“We feel so fortunate to have found Scott! Our golden retriever has the absolute best time at his house; she comes home tired and happy. And he sends the best pictures showing us what she’s up to throughout the day … I wish my kids’ daycare was this thorough!”

“My dog had a great first daycare experience with Mackenzie and Anthony. He’s had issues with anxiety with sitters in the past, and did very well with them and their 2 dogs. I highly recommend.”
5. Madison P.
“Madison has the perfect yard and the best personality for our buddy, Winston. Her pups and ours got along so well and I know Winston had so much fun and was totally wore out when we got home. He was happy and content. She sent pictures updating us that he was happy and having fun. Great sitter and I highly recommend.”
6. Alexandra H.
“Ali is THE only pet sitter we ever use. Two cats AND two large dogs to stress about while we're out of town is a lot but there are ZERO worries when I have Ali taking care of them. She's great about communicating if she has any questions. She always pays close attention to the instructions we leave and doesn't mind going "out of her way" to hang out for some cat cuddles and a dog pile! Highly recommend her for any stressed pet parents planning a get-away!”
7. Maggie G.
“THE BEST CAREGIVER FOR MY FOUR-LEGGED BABY, HANDS DOWN! Maggie went above and beyond to make my little prince feel welcome and comfortable. She has a large fenced-in backyard and was very outgoing and caring. When I went to pick my Malachi up, he was snuggled up with Maggie and didn't want to leave. She definitely treats others' dogs like her own and I will be returning.”

About: I have raised dogs, cats, bunnies, horses, and chickens my entire life. I currently have a Pug and a Boston Terrier, both puppies. I work from home and can provide day care, over nights, walks, pop-ins, etc. I am right down the street from Gateway so if you need a place to drop your animal off on your way to work downtown, I make a convenient drop off location. Very flexible with times. Air conditioning inside, large fully fenced backyard, and walks daily. 24/7 availability for pet care so long as we communicate in advance. I work from home and can be available based on your needs. I am available for drop off and pick up any time. There are a few times throughout the day where I will be driving my kids to and from events. We can communicate and work around those times. I also have a keypad. Animals are watched closely in the home and kept inside the fence in the backyard under supervision. When on walks animals are always on leash and are one on one with me. Separate food and water bowls are used. My yard is cleared of excrement daily. All animals must be up to date with shots and worming and flea/tick prevention.
12. Shaelea R.
“She cares about animals deeply and goes above and beyond for any animal/s in her possession. No matter if they are hers or someone else's. She is one person i would personally trust to leave my pet with and not have to worry about them. You couldn't pick a better person to babysit or walk your dog or any animal at that.”
13. Kevin & Michael N.
“Kevin was wonderful! I entrusted him to keep my two dogs for a week after I had neck surgery. He kept my 16 year old dog and my new 2 pound puppy. He sent daily updates including pictures which helped me to relax since I had never left the puppy with anyone. He is knowledgeable about dogs behavior, schedules and needs. I could see in the pictures he sent that my dogs were relaxed and enjoying their time with him. I won’t leave my dog with anyone else!!”
14. Daxon B.
“If I could give 6 stars, I would. Ivy and I met Dax prior to him taking care of her for a day. Easy going, understanding, and an absolute lifesaver. I will be using Dax WEEKLY from here on out I’m sure! His dogs became my pups new best friends. Photos during the daycare day were amazing and communication was better than I could have asked for.”

About: I’m the friend that’s relied on for training support. Puppy, Senior citizen, separation anxiety to adoptee experience; 10+ years. I’m passionate about learning new training techniques, implementing, and teaching. Every dog and companion deserves to understand each other. I have a 3 year old xl breed. Every day we focus on consistency and communication. I personally focus on the individual needs specific to my companions for the best life experience. From avid exercise to slow paced walks to muscle and joint massage and even reinforcing habits that create healthy confidence. I love paying attention to body language and understanding what it means for a companion as well as the companion’s caretaker and being able to provide comfort and training techniques based off of that. I can’t wait to be a certified dog trainer and help people understand there’s no such thing as a bad or impossible breed. It’s all about understanding, communication, implementation, and consistency. My goal is to keep your companions day as regular and consistent as possible. We will be on time for walks, they will get a lot of attention, I love animal body language so I’ll be able to build a connection with your companion based on their comfortability level, and I prefer to go by your rules. I understand no dogs on couches and I also fully support couch cuddles. It’s all about your companions happiness and well being along with providing ease and comfort for you and I will make sure to provide everything you need to maintain that. I chose a neighborhood great for king walks and close to downtown for easy access to greys lake. apartment that offered a dog park for comfortable potty breaks. And being right next to greys lake offers great adventures. I can crate if required, as I crate my 2 yr old for his safety. I encourage as many “rules” and your guidance to abide by to make your companions day to day as regular and enjoyable as possible. This is all about you guys and making your lives easy and comfortable.
20. Courtney C.
“When I was going out of town, I asked Courtney to watch my cat for me. I left her at home and Courtney came every day a couple of times to make sure she had enough food and to play with her. I recognize that cats and dogs aren't the same thing, but my cat thinks she is a dog. Anyhow, every time she went over to check in on my cat, Courtney sent me pictures of them playing and of my cat curled up next to her. My cat doesn't always like people she hasn't met before, but she took to Courtney really quickly and was very happy and healthy upon my return. Courtney is not only super friendly toward four-legged friends but is also kind toward her two-legged friends as well!”
