Dog Boarding Carpenter-Ridgeway

“Such a treat to have Duane & Lauren take care of my pup, Rapha while I was away. They are very responsive and attentive to the needs of both owner and doggie. Thank you!”

Russhell C.

“Rona took excellent care of Basie and Mimi while we were away! She sent us regularly updates of the doggies sleeping, eating, and playing and she made sure that they wore their sweaters when they went outside in the chilly weather. Definitely would book again, she's amazing!”

Charity P.

“Jesica was easy to work with. We had a fabulous meet and greet prior to Samson’s visit. During Samson’s stay with Jesica, we received plenty of photos and reassuring updates that he was doing well. Jessica is clearly a caring dog sitter who welcomed Samson into her home. We felt very comfortable knowing Samson was in her care.”

Anne G.

“Margaret was beyond sweet and accommodating, she took excellent care of my senior pup and gave her plenty of attention, care, and exceptional feedback. We’re new to the area and will only book with her, she's earned a trusted client. Highly recommend Margaret for any pet sitting needs!”

Hayley J.

“Jennifer was communicative and responsive - updates and video of my dog and her dog playing like longtime pals. My dog was calm and relaxed when I picked her up, which has not always been the case with Dogsitter’s. Thank you Jennifer!”

Diane F.

“Suellen did a super job keeping our mini poodle happy and safe while we were gone on a long, long trip. Her dogs Mia and Wes tolerated our busy guy so well, and we got regular updates from Suellen of walks and backyard play. We so appreciate that Tuck came home as himself, silly and obsessive, not the stressed out guy he has been before when we’ve done kennel stays. Thanks!”

Jennifer B.

“Emily was a great sitter! Toph was well taken care of and we received daily updates with photos. If anything came up she was in contact with us to let us know. From the pictures our dog was very happy and well loved while we were out of town.”

Kala & Dillon S.

“Amanda and her family were extremely accommodating and took care of my dog like he was their own. It was my first time using the app and I was nervous but she put that at ease with updates and pictures. Would definitely book again!”

John S.

“Excellent host! They send daily pictures and updates. My dogs looked so happy being in their home and backyard. Great communication and very flexible and accommodating.”

Ben G.

“Cynthia was amazing! It was the first time we’d left our dog with someone other than family; not only did she make it easy to leave our dog, she made it fun! Her updates and photos made it feel more like sharing our dog rather than leaving our dog behind. Cynthia was patient with our shy dog, such that despite it usually taking awhile to warm up to people, our dog seemed comfortable after just a short time. We would absolutely leave our dog with Cynthia again!”

Krista K.

“It was an absolute delight to work with Annie! She provided exceptional care for Cinnamon and kept me updated with regular pictures and messages. I wouldn't hesitate to book her again anytime.”

Taariq E.

“Sofi was professional and prompt in responding to messages. She also sent updates/pictures of Ziva, who was quite comfy in Sofi's apartment. Drop-off and pick-up were simple given the loading zone right outside her apartment complex.”

Tanya H.

“Beatrice did a great job watching over Chopa :) She sent messages and pictures to provide updates during the boarding which was great! I would definitely reach out to her again when we need boarding service again”

About: I recently lost my own dog, Sonora, that I had for 16 years. I’m not ready for a new one of my own, but I have a large space and plenty of free time, so I want to love your dogs! Whatever you need me to do, I’ll be happy to do it. I want your dog to feel as much love as they do at home. I work 2-3 days per week and can work from home if I want to. If I’m home I can let your dog out as much as needed. If I do go to the office, it would likely be about 6 hours max. When I’m not working, we can walk and play all day! I have a fenced yard with plenty of space to run, dog toys and treats, water and food bowls. The neighborhood is great for walking on leash. We also have a small collapsible dog pool.

“Kara took such good care of River and helped transfer him to a second sitter also. I would highly recommend her to anyone - her dogs were great and had a great yard for him to play and run. She also updated us daily on his shenanigans with pictures and narration. Made me feel so comfortable he was in good hands.”

Elaine P.

“Erin was a wonderful, empathetic dogsitter! She watched our girl, Zuki, for six days, and she texted us updates and a few photos until we felt reassured that Zuki was adjusting to a new environment well. Our dog is a rescue, and she has some strange behaviors such as being reluctant to drink water in the house (maybe because an alpha dog “claimed” the water dish at the rescue). Erin made sure that Zuki ate enough, drank, and she took her plenty of walks. What’s more, she cuddled Zuki to make her feel more at ease. Erin even ended up sleeping on the couch near Zuki to keep her company. I could tell that Erin was monitoring Zuki’s behavior bc she knew that Zuki has “fears,” and I was glad that Zuki had the opportunity to meet Erin with us present (so that our dog would be more comfortable and know that Erin was a friend). Thank you, Erin, for taking care of our fur baby!”

Hutch R.

“From the beginning, Marlene was extremely flexible in coordinating Freya’s stay. Throughout Freya’s stay, I received consistent updates and pictures, which made me smile each time I saw them. I could tell, both from the pictures and from Freya’s great mood when I arrived for pick up, that she had fun and felt comfortable with Marlene. I was thrilled with Marlene’s services, and I would trust Freya with her any time. I highly recommend Marlene to anyone!!”

Pete T.

“Tony took great care of our dog Dezi! He sent great pictures throughout our stay and she had so much fun playing with the other dogs while she was there. I’d highly recommend Tony to anyone looking too give their dog a vacation while they’re out of town.”

Scotty G.

“Da Yeon was amazing in every way! She went out of her way to give our sweet doggy the best experience while we were gone, and was fantastic in communicating and coordinating. Anyone would be lucky to have their fur babies stay with her, and we’re so grateful to have had such a great experience!”

About: Hello! I was fortunate enough to grow up in a home that always had a myriad of animals. Taking in and caring for strays was something my parents encouraged. As an adult, I adopted my five dogs (including bringing three home with me from Morocco after I finished my Peace Corps service) and three cats. I was also a foster parent with Underdog Pet Rescue for years where I had the privilege of caring for dozens of dogs and cats in my home and setting them up for a happy life with their adopters. In addition to dogs and cats, I have pet-sat for families with chickens, pot-bellied pigs, and various reptiles and amphibians. I am happy to care for any creature (only thing I am unable to do is snakes that require live feedings). I own my house and have a large, fenced-in backyard. I work from home and create my own schedule so I am easily able to accommodate most drop-in times as well as give your loved one plenty of attention and love if they’re boarding with me. Please do not hesitate to reach out with any questions. Thank you! Lizzie (+ Bogey, Runty, Dolly, Tipsy, Nikki, Pabel, and Pushkin) I work from home as well as make my own schedule. This allows me quite a bit of flexibility when it comes to serving your pet with their known and preferred routines. My home is chaotic, no doubt, with my seven beloved pets. Still, all have years of experience at being foster siblings and temporary hosts for dozens (possibly hundreds at this point) of foster pets and boarding clients over the years. I like to allow my pets as much freedom as possible as long as they both feel and are safe. Messes happen and it’s no big deal! I raise my own animals as well as care for others’ with patience, understanding, and genuine joy.
