“Judy was absolutely wonderful to work with for our dog Simba. We felt comfortable and relaxed to leave him for an extended time for the first time. We could also tell that Simba really enjoyed his time with Judy and Bill. They made him feel right at home, and took such thoughtful and attentive care of him!”


“There are not enough kind things I can say about Jackie, she took incredible care of my fur baby. My mom unexpectedly passed away and I needed to leave town on very short notice for a week. I had never used Rover before or boarded her for more than one night in the 10 years I’ve had her. I had extreme anxiety about leaving her with someone else, especially during such a vulnerable time. Jackie took the best care of her, and when I say best, I truly mean the best! Nala also has anxiety when away from me and in only one day being away I was getting pictures of her with a huge smile on her face! Jackie and her family treated Nala like she was apart of their family, and gave her lots of cuddle time too 🥰. They knew she was anxious too and did everything they could to make her comfortable. Jackie constantly stayed in contact with me with messages on how she was doing and lots of photos and videos. In 10 years, Jackie was the first person I trusted with my baby and I’m so happy I did. It allowed me to take the time I needed and gave me the piece of mind knowing my baby was being cared for as best as possible. I feel so grateful to have found her, I never would have been able to get out of town if I hadn’t. I couldn’t recommend her more if you’re looking for someone who takes just as good of care of your fur baby as you do ❤️.”


About: I have been a fur mama for 13 years, but have been taking care of animals since I was a kid. I love BOTH cats and dogs! I have two of each—along with a turtle, so I am not afraid of caring for aquatic animals. I have experience administering medication both orally and subdermally. So I am not afraid to do either. I would love to help take care of your baby in any way! I currently work Monday-Thursday. I am available all day Fridays and Sundays. And full days every other Saturday, because I work a half day every other. Can make some weeknights work, depending on the situation. I have a fully fenced in yard, so no need to worry about keeping your babies safe. Backyard comes with two super friendly dogs who love playtime with friends!

“You will NOT find better care for your fur babies! Liz and her husband took EXCELLENT care of my one year old, high Energy, diabetic pup! My pup is HIGH maintenance… they fed Cocoa like she was at a restaurant, gave her insulin shots 2x a day, let her play all day with their dogs, walks, Cocoa slept on their bed and couch. I think my dog misses them already! I got tons of photos (even a photo shoot with Santa) and tons of updates and videos. I can’t give a better review. Liz is like hitting the jackpot. See you next time ❤️ and THANK YOU.”



“Our first time using Jill and she exceeded our expectations. Kept us informed and revealed some of our dogs hidden behaviors while in her care. Pictures and regular updates were the norm. A happy and well exercised maggie was welcoming us with her trademark happy waggle upon pickup. Will use her again”

“Wow! Absolutely wow! To give you an idea of how well my boys experience was…They didn’t want to leave. I had to entice them with treats to get in the car to go home. They were loving on Nancy from the moment the door to her home was opened to seeing their smiling faces when we picked them up after a weekend. We now refer to this experience as “Aunt Nancy’s Oasis.” These boys had so much fun they were wiped when they got home and probably had the best sleep of their lives.”


“Katie and her family are delightful. Bebe is usually cautious meeting new people. Bebe seemed totally comfortable as this kind family held her, petted her and scratched her tummy. The cute photos they sent looked like Bebe Heaven! We feel very grateful for this sweet family, Thanks Katie !”


“Cleo had a great time at Lyndsey’s. She was well cared for and came home happy! 🐶😃”


“We had a wonderful experience with Patricia. Sprocket stayed over for 4 days and everything was perfect. He was well looked after and we received updates throughout our vacation. If there were 6 stars, we would have given 6!”


“Karin was wonderful with our dog, Cooper. She took him on several walks per day, played fetch with him and treated him like he was her own dog. Karin updated us daily with pictures and texts. Karin is very easy to work with and allowed Cooper to have the run of her house. He was very comfortable with Karin and so were we and we would highly recommend Karin to others. We will be using Karin as a dog sitter in the near future.”


“Victoria was amazing! This was the first time we had left our puppy with someone and she immediately put us at ease. She was incredibly attentive and sent us lots of pictures and updates. I look forward to having her take care of Timo again!”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was in my 20s. I’ve also taken care of senior dogs, so I know how to handle their special care. I’m very experienced in feeding and grooming, and I love the companionship it brings to a family! I am a stay at home mom, and my husband works from home, so there’s always someone there to watch and play with your fur baby! We always have lots of time for walking and playing throughout the day. I have an extremely safe neighborhood with a little park about a 3 minute walk away, two kids that love playing with dogs, (15 and 8) and an extremely friendly mini goldendoodle!


“Elvis was in great hands with Stella. He got along great with her dogs. I was never worried about him while on vacation. He had a brown 3 legged squeaky toy that was lost at the house. He must have had fun playing with it with the other dogs. No problem, he can get it back next time Elvis stays. I would highly suggest others to consider Stella. Great family and dog lovers. Thanks so much…”


“Dorene is incredible! I can't thank her enough for taking such care of my boy. Consistent with communication and understanding of my pups anxieties.”


“Boris was so incredibly accommodating and helpful, and made our first stay with him great! Toby had a fantastic stay, we got tons of videos and pictures, and we will definitely use him again.”



“I can tell Katerina LOVES dogs! She was great with Penny. She took her on walks, brought her to the dog park and let her sleep with her. She sent us pictures and videos throughout our trip. Penny didn't get along with her cats but she made it work out. I felt like Penny was in good hands the whole time we were gone (11 nights). I would highly recommend her to watch your dog.”



“Our dog stayed with Michelle and Robert for two nights and they were nothing but awesome! Hunnybun tends to get anxious and worked up when she's been away from us, but she came home so happy (right amount of energy) and relaxed!! Loved all the cute pictures we got too. Thank you again!!”


“Jill and her family welcomed Bailey into their home and treated him as their own. They were attentive to his needs as a senior dog, including giving oral medicine. I could tell he was well brushed and cared for when I picked him up. Her large yard was perfect for him. Jill had clearly gotten attached to him. She was always very responsive whenever I texted. I would book with Jill again.”


“Debbie and her husband took care of our frenchie (Benji) they were great, sent pictures of him and communicated constantly. Will def use them again. Thanks”



“Usually Lucy comes back from any type of boarding situation sad and emaciated. There always seems to be a readjustment period as she gradually “forgives” us. Not so after her stay with Angela. She must have gotten all the love she needs (and she is a very needy dog when it comes to affection) because she was not all skin and bones and hasn’t been showing us the usual resentment. I will definitely be contacting Angela the next time I need to board Lucy!”
